Text tone still on iPhone 5s but not in itunes?

I tried to back up my iPhone 5s to iTunes so I could update to iOS 8. I chose for it to transfer purchases and when it finished backing up, my text tone was in the 'on this iPhone' part, but when I went to update it, it then said there were purchases that weren't transferred, so I did it manually. When it transferred the purchases, the text tone disappeared from iTunes but other things, like books were still there. It's still on my phone, and after restarting it, it now works when people text me. I looked on the iTunes store on my phone and it gives me the option to buy it?
So I'm very confused. iTunes just decided that I didn't have it anymore, my phone still has it and uses it, but the iTunes store tells me to buy it?
Anyone know how I can back it up on iTunes again so I can just get on with the update?

If you have all your music on the cmputer then i would connect up my phone uncheck the Sync Music option and apply.
This should take all the music off your phone .Then you can resync the music back on to it.
If this doesn't work maybe a restore to factory settings and start from scratch is the way to go

  • Movies Showing up on iPhone 5S but Not in iTunes on MacBook

    Hi:
    I purchased a movie bundle (Madagascar 1,2,3) for my daughter and all the movies show up on my iPhone 5S but only Madagascar 1 shows up in my iTunes on my MacBook.
    Also, Toy Story 3 and The Penguins of Madagascar show up in both places.
    I have checked my iTunes Settings and nothing is "hidden".
    Any ideas on how I can get Madagascar 2-3 to show up in iTunes on my MacBook?
    Thanks,
    Adam

  • My album covers are messed up on my iPhone 4s, but not on iTunes.

    I have an iPhone 4s and I bought a few new albums recently on the iTunes Store. When I synced them to my phone, certain album covers, including the covers of the albums I had just bought, were not the correct ones. They were mixed up with other album covers that were also on my phone. On iTunes on my computer, all of the album covers are correct, so it is not iTunes. I tried updating my phone to the most recent software and restarting my phone, but the problem remained. I also tried deleting the albums from my playlist and putting them on again, but the album covers are not just messed up in my playlists, but in the phone itself. I have tried syncing to the computer multiple times, but the phone has remained the same. How can this problem be fixed?

    Did you also try to set it up as new device, as explained in this ariticle?

  • Duplicates of a song on iPhone 4s but not in iTunes. Unable to delete duplicate. Won't play and won't let you swipe to delete. Any ideas on how to do so without resetting the phone?

    I have duplicates of a song on an album. One of the duplicates is grey with no album cover. When you attempt to swite and delete, the track will not delete and will not even play. I've contacted iTunes store and the person I received the support email from told me that it may not be downloaded. I emailed him back and explained that no there is no download for that song in my itunes store on my phone.
    One I never received an answer back which shows you how well these people do their job.
    Two: I really would prefer to have a solution to this problem without having to delete all of my music from my phone or resetting my phone. Because this duplicate isn't even showing up in my iTunes, it's only showing up on my phone.
    When I attempt to find it in my itunes it plays fine. But when I try to find the file to delete it, it is no where to be found. I've tried everything that I could think of to get rid of it. And I don't want to leave the album/artist off my phone because I do enjoy their music... And I have the microsoft sync in my car.
    Anyone got any ideas on how to do this without resetting the phone and/or taking my music off?

  • Itunes library still in my music but not in itunes

    I opened itunes today to find all of my music was gone. Thankfully, the library is still in the "My Music" folder. How in the world do I get it back on itunes and why in the world did this happen?

    Try holding down the Shift key in Windows when launching iTunes 7. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to an existing one. Go to where you found the library file and open it: How to open an alternate iTunes Library file

  • Podcast PDF's showing up on iPhone but not desktop iTunes

    Our church publishes a podcast from Sermon Studio (studio.sermon.net). We include mp3 audio and a PDF with message notes. These PDFs show up in the Podcasts iPhone app but not in iTunes under subscribed podcasts. Any idea why?

    Oh, I forgot to mention that music seems to automatically download just fine whenever I buy a song off of my iPhone.  Another thing is, the movies were all bought off of my iPhone.

  • Does anybody have an issue with not hearing custom text tones on their Iphone 5?

    I am having a problem not hearing any custom text tones on my Iphone 5 even though it is not on silent mode.  It's very upsetting cuz friends will text me when I'm at work at my phone is in my pocket but I don't know until I look at my screen.  Never had this issue with my old Iphone 4 plus my WiFi seems to kind of suck to with reception.

    I have the same problem! I have been on the phone and emailing apple support for several days and still not working. They credited back my purchased text tones. I even repurchased a couple text tones and they work for a couple hours then it stops working. If I click on sounds under settings and try to just listen to the tone, all It does is vibrate

    That setting is only related to iMessage. It causes iMessages to be resent as SMS if iMessage fails.

  • TS1538 When i plug my iphone 4s into my laptop it is recognised by my pc but not by itunes. I have followed all troubleshooting steps and everything is in order but itunes will still not load??

    please can anybody help??!!

    Hello EmilyLauren92,
    It sounds like your phone is not seen in iTunes on your computer but is recognized in My Computer. You have done an excellent job troubleshooting so far, and next I recommend these steps from the article named:
    iPod: Appears in Windows but not in iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1363
    4. Empty your Temp directory and restart
    7. Remove and reinstall iTunes
    9. Update, Reconfigure, Disable, or Remove Security Software
    10. Deleting damaged or incorrect registry keys
    The title mentions the iPod, but the steps will be relevant for the iPhone as well.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

    PLZ HELP ME !!

    You can't. I don't know what it is you believe you downloaded, but the iPhone does NOT support custom SMS tones at this time. iOS 5 will, but iOS 4 does not.

    You can't unless iOS5 includes this function, but even then it might just be for iPhone 4.
