Ringtone to text tone

i would like to know how to change a ringtone into a text tone while still keeping the ringtone

There is NO text tones folder. iOS 4 does NOT support custom text tones. Wait for iOS 5.

    Transfer your purchases from old iPhone to computer iTunes, then select tones in iTunes with your new iPhone connected, do a sync.

  • Itunes ringtones and text tones not working??

    I downloaded a ring tone and a text tone, from the itunes store,and it was working great for about three weeks.  I lost charge on my phone yesterday and soon as I powered back up the default ringtones have seemed to take over even though my tones are set to the two tones I downloaded.  any answers to why? or is there a fix available? I also have the latest software update iOS 8.1.2 on my iphone6.

    Try doing a hard reboot of the iPhone
    1. hold the power and home buttons down
    2. you will see the "swipe to turn off" screen come up... KEEP HOLDING THE BUTTONS
    3. The screen will go black (turn off)... KEEP HOLDING THE BUTTONS
    4. A white Apple logo will appear on the screen, now you can release the buttons. Left the iPhone boot... should only take a couple minutes.

  • Using ringtone as text tone

    I have read a bit about this but cannot find the exact information I seek.  I purchased a ringtone several days ago. It has uploaded into iTunes and is listed there as a tone. On my actual iPhone, it is listed and selectable only as a ringtone. I wish to use this tone for texts.  It is already an AAC set to .m4r and is only 9 seconds in length. My question is how can I get this tone to show up as a selection for text tones on my iPhone?

    Yes, the only way to do this is to jailbreak your iPhone. I personally do not want to do that, though I very much wish that Apple would allow for customization of this via the configurations or a third party app.

  • Use downloaded ringtone as text tone (no jailbreak)?

    I just got my iPhone about 4 days ago and I'm having trouble finding a way to use a ringtone as a text tone. Through some searching on the web the only way I saw people were able to do this is with a jailbroken iPhone which I don't want to do. Is there any other way to do this?

    Yes, the only way to do this is to jailbreak your iPhone. I personally do not want to do that, though I very much wish that Apple would allow for customization of this via the configurations or a third party app.

  • Ringtones And text tones not working, but iPod is

    I purchased a ringtone today and since I did so, none of my alerts are working. My iPod is playing fine, so I know it's not the speakers. I just have no idea when I get a call or text message! Please help!

  • Ringtones and Text Tones No Longer Work in IOS 8 upgrade

    I have an Iphone 5S and recently did the upgrade to IOS 8...  I know better i should have waited a year to upgrade but I stupidly did.  Today all my tones and ringtones are stuck on default and will not change to the selected.
    Phone has also crashed. Went into restore mode. 
    system restore did nothing, so its in software..
    any suggestions,  These are purchased ringtones through itunes,
    thanks

    I am having a similar issue. I have an iPhone 5, and after updating to iOS 8 it uses the ringtone I have set as my default.. but will not keep the ringtones I have set for one person. I go back in and change it, and five minutes later it's back to the default ringtone. And it keeps doing this.
    Help?

  • Ringtones and text tones not working

    I finally figured out on my own that I have to turn OFF Do Not Disturb for my Iphone 4 to alert me to calls or texts. I had it set for DNDisturb 10p-9a. It's 6:55p. I got sick of missing calls and texts. Why is DND messed up? This has been happening for about three days I guess.

  • HT1358 I quite want my custom ringtones and text-tones to be a higher bitrate than 128kbps.

    Is this possible?

    Hi MadMac!
    I have exactly the same problem as you and I have also tried all solutions given on the InDesignSecrets page without result. The created pdf's look perfect but not when printed.
    I have started to think in another way. I have to buy a new printer soon and I'm looking for one of the cheaper color lasers for small offices. For testing I created an ugly designed A4-sized layout in InDesign with transparency in some text frames and exported it to a pdf which I brought to the reseller. The interesting thing is that it seems to depend on the printer if the YDB-syndome appers or not. All the three HP Color LaserJets I have looked at gives the syndome, but Xerox 6280n does not give the syndrome. I am not an expert at all regarding this, but my conclusion is that it has to do with the printers drivers. Xerox has true Adobe PostScript 3, ICC-profiles and Pantone-simulations and the HP's have emulations.The negative thing with Xerox 6280 is that the black/greyscale are printed approx 1/4mm wrong, compared with the other colors, which makes a mispas (or what it's called in english...).In offsetprint or digital press I have never got the syndrome, but there is not enough space on my desk to place an offsetpress even if I had the money.
    Have other here on the forum made the same or similar observations? And do someone know if the Canon LBP-5360 gives the YDB or not?Canon makes good inkjetprinters, so maybe they make good lasers as well.

  • How to keep custom ringtones and text tones in iOS 7

    ....

    Yup - looks like you can only copy the entire text from the Message app and the email app lets you 'select' or 'Select All'.

  • I purchased a few music ringtones and text tones on a previous iPhone 5 . When I got the new replacement only the songs downloaded not the ringtones or text tones ..what do I do?

    Need help in locating or redownloading previous tones

    All content and apps should be in iTunes on your computer.
    Connect the device to the computer and sync the desired content to the device.
    I do not believe ringtones are available for re-download.

  • All purchased ringtones / text tones lost

    I have just purchased a new MacBook Pro, and when I synced my iPhone to my computer for first time, it transferred music purchases from my iPhone to my MacBook Pro, but not my ringtones or text tones. Upon checking my iPhone, they've all been wiped.
    Does anyone know how I retrieve these purchases? I've checked my Purchases and there's nothing there...
    Thanks

    Update - Had to create a case number with iTunes on line and then had to call Support.  It took 1-1/2 hrs!  Don't believe the so-called experts on this site.  Don't repurchase tones as they will charge you again!  Apple told me that you shouldn't purchase from your device (Wait! What?) and the supervisor I finally got to late last night said this the first time they ever heard of this happening (what a Crock! scripted) Don't download anything from your iPhone as the tones and from what I hear songs will disappear before you have a chance to sync.  Even when they re-pushed the tones, then the existing tones that show in iTunes then disappeared on my phone.  They had to re-push everything twice and it works for now and I don't hold any hope that it will last.  The so-called experts here don't know what they are talking about.  They will resort to calling you a novice and other choice names when their so-called fixes don't work. It is irresponsible for Apple to remain silent on this issue and not give its customers this warning.  But it will enhance their bottom line if they remain silent.  Think about it.…

  • Text Tone issues - iPhone 5

    Hello,
    All my contacts have a custom Ringtone and Text Tone set to "Noir".
    The default Ringtone is set to "Old Phone" and the default Text Tone is set to "Tri-Tone".
    It happens that when I receive a text message from one of my contacts the sound that plays is "Tri-Tone" instead of  "Noir".
    Can someone help me in this one?
    Thank you.

    This is accomplished by backing up your phone, either in iTunes or iCloud and then restoring your new phone from that backup. See this support document for assistance. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109
