Selected ringtone reverts to default after sync

I have downloaded to my mac a couple of ringtones which I use for family members. The ringtones for those family members (seen in Contacts) revert to the default ringtone (just a standard one available on the iPhone 6) every time I sync to my mac. What am I doing wrong?

More from Randall39: And let me also say -- I have the "sync tones" boxes checked on iTunes. My point is that it reverts back despite having this box checked. Surely this isn't what it is supposed to do.

Call park music on hold reverts to default after server reboot

Hello,
We are noticing that if you define Music on hold for the Park service, the call park music on hold reverts to default sound after server reboot. (all systems we've tested do this)
Anyone using park music on hold that can verify one way or the other?
Thanks,

Bluetooth problems: prefs revert to defaults after reboot

Hi there,
I have a strange problem with Bluetooth and wireless input devices. I have set up Apple wireless keyboard and mouse, and also ticked "Show Bluetooth status in the menu bar" in Bluetooth preferences. However, after I reboot bluetooth icon disappears from the menu bar, and Magic Mouse prefs revert to defaults.
Apart from that, I am not able to tick "Allow Bluetooth devices wake up this computer" in Preferences – Bluetooth – Advanced.
What can it possibly be?
Before that I had the same issue with Dock (its icons would return to a certain state every time after reboot, no matter how I'd change or rearrange them before restarting). I managed to solve Dock issue by trashing Dock .plist files. I guess it may be the same with Bluetooth, but I don't know which .plist to trash this time (tried deleting com.apple.Bluetooth.plist, it doesn't work).

I don't have a logitech mouse, but is it possible that the mouse is going to sleep during the reboot, and is thus unavailable when the OS is looking for it?

Finder window size reverts to default after restart

My Finder window doesn't remember the last size I set it to after a restart.
Mountain Lion was a downgrade - there are many things about Snow Leopard that were better...but Jaguar was the best. Powerbook G4 was pure freedom all the way through Tiger.
#googlingLinuxDistros

For rants: File a bug report with Apple.
For the Finder window issue, it appears that all of you .DS_Store files are corrupted. Step one is to remove them all. To delete the .DS_Store files, run this in the Terminal app:
sudo find / -name ".DS_Store" -exec rm {} \;</
At the Password: prompt, carefully enter your admin password, since nothing shows up on the screen, and hit the return key. When the default prompt, usually the $ sign, pops up, quit the Terminal app, restart, and open a Finder window, set it up the way you want, and click on Use as Defaults. All subsequently opened or created folders should retain that view. Do note that that only applies to icon and list view.

Indicator reverts to default after set control value

Sorry. Tried to put a tab in my message, then pushed space twice and apparently posted this a couple times....
I've noticed that if I try to programatically set the value of an indicator (which is in the connector pane) using the Set Control Value method it reverts back to its default value once the VI is finished executing. If it's not in the connector pane I don't have this problem. If I use Set Control Value, then read from a local variable of the indicator to set the indicator I also get no problem. Why is this? I've attached two block diagram images below showing what I did.
I'm interested in this because I'm trying to write a subvi that retrieves and stores a bunch of global values from a config file. The easiest way to do this seemed to me to use the OpenG vi that reads and writes the front panel controls to a config file (since some of my controls I wish to save are complicated). It didn't seem to work unless I added the second step of using the local variable to update the indicator.

Default ringtone after sync.

Hope this is a short & sweet resolution...
Everytime I sync my iPhone 4, my custom ringtone reverts back the the default ringtone.
Any idea as to why?
I'm using iTunes 10 when syncing.
Thanks

Bought ringtones on my iphone 6 from the itunes store, and they reset to default after 1 day of using them and dissapeared pelase help me get them back

How to get ringtones that have dissapeared after purchased?

This is a known issue and other's have experienced the same thing. It has something to do with iOS 8.1.1. If you didn't sync them to your iTunes library after purchase, you'll need to contact iTunes Support.

I just updated my iPhone 4 to iOS6. In the process, I ran into a problem and had to restore factory settings. After syncing the phone, I see that 218 apps need to be updated. When selecting "update all," it says "manage local device storage usage." How?

I just updated my iPhone 4 to iOS6. In the process, I ran into a problem and had to restore factory settings. After syncing the phone, I see that 218 apps need to be updated. When selecting "update all," it says "Cannot Download. There is not enough available local storage to download these items. You can manage your local device storage usage in Settings."
How can this be the case when I haven't changed any apps from before updrading to iOS6, and I don't have any music yet on the phone? Why is it telling me there is not enough local space?

Hi RileyAvaCadenRiver,
If you recently updated your iPhone to iOS7, you will need to update iTunes on your computer to iTunes 11.1 or newer for it to correctly recognize the iPhone. You may find the following link helpful:

HT201269 after syncing iPhone to iTunes on macbook, purchased ringtones are no longer on iPhone

Where do I locate ringtones and text tones purchased that did not show up on my new iphone after syncing with itunes on my macbook? i did a computer backup and use the cloud and itunes match.

Use Migration Assistant to put all your personal data from the backup of your other computer onto the new computer, then sync.

Try this ..
On your Mac open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to: Notes
Then reselect it.
Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync the data.
Other than that, try Time Machine > http://pondini.org/TM/15m.html

I added a custom ringtone . Then later I tried to add another three set but now after sync . Am not able to get rid of the first one... It's still there as my custom ringtone. But my iPhone in iTunes shows all four... But the phone shows only one...?

Paul--you are a life-saver!! Worked great. I did have to look around to make sure I was getting 4.9 instead of 4.7 (even when the file was named 4.9 at techspot.com), but I finally got the right file, did the install as you suggested, and everything is now fine. One note, though, that I haven't seen mentioned in any of this thread: when I first tried to open up iTunes after getting back to 4.9, the following message appeared: "The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." I merely went to the old .itl file that was created when I did the update to iTunes 5, renamed it, moved it over to my now new 4.9, and iTunes opened fine. My library was a few days out of date, because of the few days' lag from the time I did the iTunes update, but that was easily taken care of, and everything's now working fine. Thanks again!!!

After sync my music disappeared. Now I cannot get music back on phone!! I have one song on my ipod even though I synch with my playlists selected.

After sync my music disappeared. Now I cannot get music back on phone. I selected playlists and triedeven loading allmusic.I have one song on my phone and cannot load any music back on it. Is there a setting I may have selected that needs to be changed???

Okay. I hope I can remeber all my steps exactly because I fixed my own problem...with absolutely no help from Apple. I opened itunes. I connected my ipod touch to my computer. On my itunes page that shows my songs in the upper right side under the search library box there is an itunes button and since I am connected there is an ipod button. DO NOT CLICK THE ARROW in the ipod button...just click in the mail part of the button. On mine it opened to a summary page that gave info on my ipod. The menu bar has Summary, Apps, Tones, Music and more. I clicked on the Music button. I chose to Sync the entire music library. That replaced what was on my ipod but what was on there was going to be put back on so I was okay with it. I then clicked the Sync button on the lower right side and it sync'd and all my songs are on my ipod again. I hope this might help someone else. Good luck.

HT1688 My purchased ringtones are not on my new Iphone after syncing. How do I get them back?

My purchased ringtones are not on my new IPhone after syncing How do I get them back? ITunes store said I had already purchased - would I like to purchase again?

Thanks for that babowa. If I add my Yahoo account it just goes straight to MacMail and says I already have an account. There seems to be no basic problem with mails going between Macmail and Yahoo. It is just the folders that have disappeared, while MacMail was out of action. I don't think those particular folders were ever on the Yahoo mail that I access through BT, they were just on the MacMail under "Yahoo" as opposed to "On my Mac". I am worried in case I lose what I already have if I press "Restore" from my back up. As you can see, I am not exactly good at this!

Syncing with outlook 2010, if i leave empty the Home address it cames United States as default and if i fill home address and left work address empty Saudi Arabia appears after sync in Iphone.

Salam,
In contacts i am facing strange problem, i have all the contacts in outook 2010 and i sync it with my new Iphone 4s with IOS 5.1.1.
Some contacts in my outlook 2010 has work address filled and some has home address filled so i make them all shifted to work address (work city and work country), then after sync i found that those contacts which i update from home address to work are showing default home country "united states" in iphone even home address is blank in outlook 2010; and then i shift all the contact's work address to home address in outlook and leaving all work address fields blank and then sync with iphone, i was again amazed that iphone is showing work address as "Saudi Arabia" even the work country is blank in outlook.
Kindly help me in this problem.
Regards,
M. Faisal

Seriously folks? I know it was long but I added all info to negate a need for endless back/forth clarifications. No answers???
FYI, i tried syncing contacts to google/gmail and it was a total clusterF as well. No gmail contacts, synced iphone, gmail contacts populated w/ all info but w/lots of repeat entries. Used seek and merge repeats in gmail and then resync but no such luck. Lots of iterations and nothing but fails. Seems everytime the phone and the gmail lists are "as desired" a new sync puts a ton of repeats back into gmail or onto phone. Still perplexed and still needing help....
pretty please....

Songs purchased on iPhone through iTunes Store will not show up on iPhone after syncing with iTunes

I recently purchased iTunes Match (about a month ago). Since purchasing Match, any songs that I have bought on my iPhone 4S (32GB, Sprint) through the iTunes Store app will not sync back to my iPhone after syncing with iTunes on my computer. I have iOS 7.1.2 and iTunes 11.3.0.54. The only way I can get them to show back up in my iPhone music library so I can play them is by re-downloading the songs through the iTunes Store app. Which is super annoying because now it is about 10 songs that keep doing this, and they are in multiple playlists. Is anyone else having this problem and have you found any fixes? Really regretting purchasing the iTunes Match (which is not enabled on my iPhone, just on my computer).

How to create custom ringtones ...
1. Open iTunes.
2. Find the song that you want to make into a ringtone.
3. Listen to the song and find the part of it you want to use. The chorus may be a good place to start.
4. Write down the start and stop times of the clip.
5. Right-click the song and select "Get Info."
6. Click the "Options" tab.
7. Type in the start time of your ringtone in the text box next to "Start Time" in the minutes:seconds (i.e., 2:01) format.
8. Type in the end time of your ringtone in the text box next to "Stop Time." Make sure the ringtone is no more than 30 seconds long.
9. Click "OK."
10. Right-click your song again and select "Convert Selection to AAC." Wait for iTunes to convert your song. It will create a duplicate version.
11. Right-click the ringtone and select "Delete."
12. Click on the "Keep Files" button.
13. Find the file. It's usually in your User folder under "Music > iTunes > iTunes Music" and under the band's name. It will have an extension of m4a.
14. Replace the m4a extension of your ringtone with m4r. You can either double-click slowly to rename your file, or right-click and select "Get Info" on a Mac or "Rename" on a Windows PC.
15. Click "Use .m4r" or the PC equivalent when the system warns you that the change may affect the use of your file.
16. Double-click the ringtone file. ITunes will automatically add it to your ringtones folder in your iTunes Music Library.
17. Connect your iPhone and sync your ringtones.
Oh, also to change a file extension. (not sure on Mac), but in Windows you need to go to "control panel" select "folder options". You need to uncheck the box "hide file extension for known file types". This will allow you to view and change the files extensions.
Hope this is useful ...
