Setting up ringtone

I have set dashboard to tones.I have purchased ringtones from itunes but they come as songs. I have watched plenty of utube clips on how to convert them to ringtones but i can't get them to work. What am i doing wrong or missing ?

You can find the default ringtones in the following steps.
Settings -> Sounds -> Ringtone
It's right under the Vibrate setting.

  • How do i set a ringtone

    i follow the directions but the menu i get does not have ringtone on it anywhere
    thanks

    If you click the menu button at the bottom left, go to settings, then sound and then ringtone.
    There are several to choose from.
    If you have music on your phone you need to select the song you want as a ringtone, and hold it and the phone will ask if you would like to play, set as ringtone and some other options.
    set it as a ringtone and it will show in your ringtone list.

  • How Can I set Specific RingTone for one person and general ringtone for all?

    Hello All,
    I have a problem with ringtone. I want to set specific ringtone for manager in my 99 series ip phone. Customer needs to know when manager calls him, that is why he told me that he wants to set specific ringtone for Manager.
    Thanks a lot

    Hi Bahlul,
    I don't see such a feature on CUCM where you can have a separate ringtone for a Directory number based on the calling party number. Even to have separate ringtones for different lines on the same IP phone you need to play with Distinctiveringlist.xml , but that too does not fit your requirement as it will always be the same ringtone for all the calls on that line. You may probably get this feature through some third party solution but i am not sure if it would be worth it for applying it on one phone only.

  • How can you set a ringtone for unknown numbers

    How can you set a ringtone for unknown numbers?

    You can set up each one of your contacts with a ringtone and use the default for all other unknown numbers. There is no way to set up a ringtone for unknown numbers.

  • Unable to set as ringtone file is unprotected N73

    I can transfer my mp3 to my N73 V 3.0716.1.5.1 without any problem PC suite.
    They get converted either to m4a or aac format and I can listen to them.
    However, when I want to set them as Ringtone I get the following error: Unable to set as ringtone file is unprotected
    I was reading that this has something to do with symbian coding or whatsoever, but thats just above my level.
    I am using XP service pack 2.
    The MP3 files are encoded by dbpoweramp by myself.
    I am gratefull for any advice.
    Considering the N73 I have to say, Nokia should be ashamed to call this a multimedia phone. I own it for 1 week now, but discovered so many buggs already.

    Unfortunately my provider is Softbank Japan (former Vodafone)
    Is there any way to sneak around that?
    How about that certificate manager, if I erase those symbian certificates, would that maybe help?

  • Setting custom ringtone in iPhone

    Hi,
    I am using a iPhone 4S. I truely believe Apple iPhone is a great technology built by experts.
    In spite of, being a great Smart phone, why the setting of custom ringtone, which is very basic feature in any kind of phone, is so complicated?
    Can't this be made easier in upcoming releases of iOS?
    For setting a ringtone, we have to shorten the length of the song, then create an AAC version. Then change the extension of the file from m4a to m4r...etc...etc
    Waiting for a reply...

  • IPhone 4: Setting different ringtones for contacts not working.

    I can't add personal ringtones for each contact. I have followed all contact editing info to the letter, yet I still only get the same one ringtone for each contact (the default ringtone I set for the phone). Setting different ringtones for text messages works fine, but not for telephone contacts. Is this feature broken? Is anyone else having this issue? Thanks.

    It happened to me also when I first added specific ringtones to contacts, but just turning the phone off/on fixed it for me. You can try a reset also if that doesn't work (hold down the home and sleep/wake buttons at the same time until the Apple logo comes up)

  • Setting Custom Ringtone

    I've got an Iphone 5s and used the current version of Itunes to create an .m4r file (which is 29 seconds long) in order to use it as my phones standard ringtone.
    For some reason it appears in Itunes as a ringtone but on my phone does not appear anywhere when trying to set a ringtone. How can I get this to appear so I can use it?
    Thanks

  • Setting of ringtones

    Seem to be unable to set any song from iTunes store as a Ringtone for my iPhone even when following the guide in the book - the bell icon never appears next to any song I choose no matter what it is and, therefore, the "Set as Ringtone" does not appear under the "Store" menu?

    Ringtones from the iTunes store are only available in the US.
    You can create your own ringtone - http://www.ehow.com/how2160460custom-iphone-ringtones-free.html
