Send Ringtone to iTunes - No worky!

I followed the procedure, iTunes opens...
That's it. No ringtone. No error message. It acts as though it's working and simply doesn't. Any ideas?

Works fine with a local iTunes music folder... Apparently it doesn't like it when your iTunes folder is on an Airport Disk. Thpppffft!

  • Problems with sending ringtones to iTunes.

    I'm using the latest version of Garageband '08, and when I click send ringtone to itunes, it says it's sending it to iTunes, then itunes opens up but my ringtone is not there. It's like nothing even happened. Why is it doing this?

    I'm having the exact same problem. Have followed the tutorials on Facebook, researched it in this board, and still am not finding an answer.
    Still looking.

  • Garageband WONT Send RINGTONES to iTunes

    Hi All,
    Long time mac user here -- this has worked for me before, but ever since upgrading to Snow Leopard I cannot send ringtones from Garageband to iTunes. This goes for normal songs as well -- iTunes will launch, but the song or ringtone won't be added, nor will the specified playlist (if exporting a song).
    Any ideas? I trashed the garageband preferences in ~/Library/Preferences, and I also tried appzapping garageband and reinstalling it from the iLife 09 DVD.
    Thanks

    Anyone got any suggestions?

  • I am unable to send ringtone from itunes

    Hi,
    I have installed ringtone maker in my iphone 4s, from that created a ringtone. The same was opened with itunes installed in my laptop. But once i tried to save the ringtone to my laptop, itunes will stop working and close down. I reinstalled the itunes once again to my laptop, still the problem persists. Please suggest me how to fix the problem.
    Thanks

    I just tried to convert another song to the mr4 and at the "Create ACC version" step, I get an error message "could not be converted because protected files cannot be converted to other formats".
    The song was purchased through iTunes.  I have searched community and it seems I need to change how I download , i.e. change the size of the file but I could not figure out how to do that.  Since you were so helpful before, I thought I would ask you.  If I am supposed to start a new query, I apologize, I am new to this community forum.
    Best regards,

  • Garage Band not sending Ringtones to iTunes

    Hello, here's the thing, i have updated to the latest version of Garage Band after hearing that i could make my own ringtones with it. I tried it and success! i have like 6 or 7 ringtones made directly from Garage Band. Now here's the problem, i purchased a new HD to put my music and movies on it, so i went to the finder and transfered the itunes music folder on my old HD and put it on my new HD, then i opened itunes and in the preferences tab i located it so that it would read it from its new location. iTunes updated the library without trouble, and now i have all my music and videos from my new HD. The thing is that now i go to Garage Band to make a new ringtone (the process like i did before the new HD) and it creates it, but now the newly created ringtone does not appear on the ringtones pane in itunes, and therefore it wont appear on my iphone under the ringtones tab. All of the other ringtones appear without trouble, just the new ones that don't appear. Am i doing something wrong? I've looked in spotlight and i cant find them anywhere. Please help guys!

    I'm no Mac expert here, but in Windows you could solve this problem by dragging and dropping the files from Explorer (Finder?) right into the iTunes library.

  • How to create ringtones with itunes?

    ok how do i go about creating ringtones with the music in my playlists in itunes? and how do i transfer ringtones that are on my computer to the ringtone library?

    Everyone seems to have their way to make a ringtone. There are aspects of Garage Band which I find cumbersome, but you need Garage Band to create and transfer your ringtone to your iTunes library. Try this.
    1. Download and install Audion 3, a free Mac mp3 editor (http://www.panic.com/Audion/
    2. Open Audion 3, then under File go to "open mp3 in editor.
    3. Navigate to your song via home/music/itunes/itunes music to the folder and then mp3 you want to make into a ringtone
    4. Identify which brief section you want for your ringtone, say from 22 seconds to 52 seconds of the song, drag and highlight that section in the mp3 editor, then under Edit click on Copy.
    5. Go back to Audion 3 and under File click on New mp3 editor. Paste your saved file into that space. Under File again click Save As, give it a name and the suffix .mp3, save to your desktop.
    6. Open Garage Band, iPhone ringtones, loops, choose
    7. Delete anything which Garage put in main space, then drag your mp3 into that space. After it sets up, go to share and send ringtone to iTunes.
    8. Sync. Be sure your check Sync all Ringtones, otherwise you have to individually click on your new rintone.

    Hey tskeltner,
    You will use GarageBand to create the ringtone and then you will have an option to send it to iTunes. Depending on which version of iTunes you have, the article below will walk you through the entire process.

  • How to buy ringtones in iTunes

    Am I missing something? I thought I saw that you could buy ringtones now in iTunes 9. How the heck do you find that feature? Looks to me like they took it out. I can't even see which songs now have the ability to be a ringtone. ???

    I just checked my iTunes. When you click on "Purchased" and view the list of purchased music, if you alt click on the song you want, one of the options is "Create Ringtone." It appears to work for all of the songs I've purchased. The box pops up in the bottom of iTunes to select the part of the song you want to use for the ringtone. After you select the section of the song you want, click on "Buy" in the bottom right corner of iTunes window. Each new created ringtone is 99 cents.
    On a Mac, you can create ringtones for FREE using GarageBand. It works with ANY song, wether purchased form iTunes or imported from CD. I found this out pretty quick after paying for 2 ringtones. I had one that didn't work, and the Apple Support guy kinda slipped up with the GarageBand tip.
    Open GarageBand, click on iPhone Ringtone. Select Example Ringtone. When it opens, delete the track that's displayed. Drag the song you want from iTunes into the blank space in the middle of the GarageBand window and size it to where you want it. After you're finished, go to the top of the screen and select "Share" then "Send Ringtone to iTunes" and you're all done!
    Have fun!

  • Create ringtones with itunes bug

    Yet I come to connect to the iTunes store and download some music, podcast, so I don't see where is the problem.
    Can you help me please?

  • (How) can I use my Airport Extreme to send FLAC files/iTunes to my stereo?

    (New to this topic.) Is it possible to use my Airport Extreme Base Station to send FLAC and iTunes music files to my (ParaSound P3/A23) stereo system wirelessly?
    If so, how?
    (Not interested in iOS devices doing this - just, effectively, in using my 'mid-2011'  2.7 iMac (10.7.3) as a music server
    TIA!

    Yes, add an AirPort Express and convert FLAC to Apple Lossless and iTunes will be able to play them. VLC will not help since you need iTunes to connect to the AirPort Express and VLC will not work with iTunes.
    There may be an exception to this but I've never tried it. You could try using AirFoil to connect to the AirPort Express and play your FLAC files that way but I have no guarantee it will work. AirFoil seems very flexible so it may prove to be a solution for you.
    I'm not familiar with the Sonos Bridge/Connect system so I cannot comment on the quality. I understand that it is comparable to using the AirPort Express but locking at the price it seems a more expensive solution for your needs.

  • HT1386 I have a new iPhone and want to purchase a ringtone on iTunes.  It keeps asking for answers to a question that I did not set up and don't have the answer for.  How do I get pass this dilemma?

    I have a new iphone and want to purchase ringtones from itunes.  Itunes is asking answers for security questions I did not set up and I can't answer them.  How do I get past this to be able to purchase.  I can purchase songs on my MAC and sync but itunes doesn't give the option to purchase ringtones on the MAC, just the iphone.

    If the email hasn't arrived after a few hours and isn't in a spam filter, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • Creating a ringtone with iTunes (after song selection) is difficult!

    Hey-
    I'm having an issue with creating ringtones using the built in ringtone maker in iTunes after purchasing a eligable track from the iTunes store. There are some ringtones that I found on the iTunes store. There is one purchase where you get 6 seperate ringers (but in one audio file). I place the slider bars at the beginning of the ringer I want and then at the end of that ringer. When I go to play it back to make sure I'm getting what I want, it's not playing the correct ringer that it should be playing, but rather either the first ringer, or the 4th ringer...very odd! I know how to 'trim' clips as I do this daily with Windows Movie Maker...left slider starts at where you want the tune to start, the right slider stops at where you want the tune to end...very simple! Yet with the ringtone maker built into iTunes, it doesn't seem to work that way at all.
    The tune that I am referring to is called "6 (or six) business ringtones" in iTunes (just do a search it will pop up)! It is one audio file, with 6 different ringtones in the file, the total file length is like 30 seconds (give or take). Well I like the 2nd ringtone. So after I bought the file, I then went into the ringtone maker in iTunes and dragged the slidders where the 2nd ringtone starts and ends, I then play it back but it doesn't play what I trimmed. Instead it plays other parts of the file (as in the 5th and 6th ringers or the 1st ringers or it starts playing the end of the 1st ringer and combines it into the 2nd ringer that I want. It doesn't seem to do what it's suppose to do and it's really starting to tick me off! I have all these charges from the iTunes store where I have been repeating trying to make the file because it's not working correctly and I'm getting all these charges on my credit card. All I want is for the ringtone maker to work correctly and make my tone as I'm telling it to do, but it won't. Does anyone know how to make this darn thing work correctly? If it wasn't for the file being DRM'd, I would drag it into my own program and do it myself with something I know works correctly. This clearly does not work correctly.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Is there a way to use your ringtones from iTunes in iMessage?

    I have a lot of ringtones in iTunes that I use on my iPhone and I was wondering if I am able to use them on my iMessage on my Macbook as well? Also, is there a way to set individual notification sounds for individual contacts so that each one has their own ringtone? I do this on my phone. It would be cool if it worked on the computer as well.

    Hi,
    iChat and Messages 7 (Mountain Lion) had a pane in the App Menu > Preferences  called Alerts.
    This could see the Sounds in iChat (or Messages), the System Sounds defaults and anything you had stored in ~/Library/Messages and you could set any of these Sounds to any of the 17 actions as a global choice
    As in Maverick if you highlight a Buddy in a Buddy List and then use CMD + i (Get Info) you could similarly set sound to individual Buddies.
    You cannot do this in Mavericks/Messages 8 as the Alerts Pane have disappeared.
    You cannot turn Off the sounds the app makes for the various different actions such as Video Invite or File Transfers.
    You can no longer set individual Buddy sounds either.
    There has not been a way to do this for iMessage Contacts.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some strange reason you have failed to backup ( not good at all), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod:  File>Transfer Purchases
