Trouble with syncing ringtone.

I bought this ringotne about a week ago and it worked fine. It was in my itunes and everything. But i just upgraded to a new HD so I j=decided to just start over and not restore from a backup. Well, I have the ringtone, it's in iTunes, but it won't sync onto my iPhone 4S, but all my other ringtones do. What's going on?

The same thing is happening to me. The ringtones worked fine before I essentially moved them to a new computer (hard drive replaced) and upgraded to Leopard. I've authorized my computer to play the songs again, they show up in my ringtones folder and in the iphone option menu, but they refuse to show up in my iPhone sound menu after syncing. I assume there is some kind of protection system that is making it not work, but I think it's ridiculous that ringtones I paid for through iTunes are not syncing while custom ringtones are now working for everybody again. The only reason I bought these is that I assumed they would always work through every apple upgrade without any worries.

  • I'm having trouble with custom ringtones.  I have downloaded the free software "makeTones" and have created some ringtones.  I then copied those to Mac and played them in ITunes.  My Itunes does not have a ringtone tab.  I can not sync the ringtones.

    Yes, the file extension is M4R.  Does it matter where I save these files on my Macbook?  I then opened them in Itunes and played them.  I did find the Tones folder in Itunes but the Tones or Ringtones tab does not show up when I select Iphone (within Itunes).  When I open the Tones folder in the Library, it is empty.  Thanks in advance for your help.

    I'm having trouble with syncing my iPod. It gets stuck on the last step saying, "Waiting for changes to be applied." It's been doing this for the last half hour. Is there anything I can do to correct this or is am just going to have to restore my iPod?

    You can sync/manually mange iphone with one and only one computer.  If you sync/manually mange to anther, then it will erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.

  • New itunes, trouble with syncing

    My itunes was recently removed from my computer, and im having a little bit of trouble with it. is it possible to put the music from my ipod to my itunes? because its not letting me.

    Kim, sorry, but I couldn't get what you are trying to do.
    iTunes jargon
    RESTORE - to erase all data, ie music, address, video etc in the connected iPod and populate them with factory settings.
    Why do we need to do this? When the iPod hardisk filesystem is corrupted and the iTunes cant map the iPod hardisk file structure, to add new data, music, videos etc.
    SYNC - The process, where iTunes overrides all data, music, videos in the iPod, with the iTunes Library. So if the iTunes library in your PC is blank, then iTunes will erase your iPod, till blank.
    iTunes Library - the folder in your PC/MAC that contains all your data/music/video etc. The iTunes does not treat the iPod as a store, but rather as huge landfill, so you need 3rd party software to recover any data from the iPod back to the PC/MAC.

  • Please help with downloading with syncing ringtones for my iphone.

    I just bought my first iPhone and am so confused. I am having trouble making ringtones for my Iphone. I have some I have purchesed from itunes and some from Myxer.com. The ringtones are in my ringtone folder but won't sync to my phone. I have changed the format to ACC, but I don't now how to go any further than that. Can anyone help?

    first of all you should not have changed the format to aac they must be in the ringtone format your bought them in (i assume from itunes?)
    second, sync your iphone and under the ringtones tab, make sure the box is ticked to sync all ringtones. then sync iphone again. this should work.
    but they must be in the m4r format or they wont work.
    hope this helps
    by the way, you dont need to buy ringtones from itunes, google is your friend, they are ways to get free ringtones out of your music in itunes. one method is to use itunes its self! google is your friend

  • Updating my iPod touch 4th gen to iOS5 - I'm having trouble with syncing in general.

    I first synced my iPod touch to my old computer on iTunes, and then I got my laptop and I downloaded iTunes, plugged in my iPod, and use it to download music. But the old computer broke, and we got a new one, with a different hardrive and everything. I didn't mind, because I was content with just using iTunes on my laptop for searching for and downloading music. The iOS 5 update came out, and at first I wasn't bothered, but now it seems to be hindering the performance of iTunes in general, as I can't download music off my computer - it keeps coming up with Error 13019.
    I looked on tons of support forums, and they all mentioned syncing music and apps. I didn't think that would be a problem, but whenever I tick the box saying 'sync music', the memory bar goes RIGHT DOWN, as if it's deleting all the songs I got off CDs, which I don't want, and whenever I tick the box saying 'sync apps', it comes up with all the apps I had a few months ago, missing out all of the apps I have now, which would no doubt delete my progress on them.
    I've even tried just clicking 'sync' on the main device page, but it just comes up with Error 13019.
    And every time I right click on my iPod's name to click 'back up' as many of the forums said, iTunes freezes and nothing happens for about 10 minutes, and I end up having to force close it on the task manager. This has happened 4 times already. -_- I've even updated iTunes to the most recent version, but nothing's changed.
    I'm scared to update my iPod, because of course it says it will delete everything, and there's no way I can back things up or sync them without them getting deleted.
    Any suggestions on what the heck I should do? By the way, I'm an amateur in the technology world, so please don't use too many fancy words. =)

    Try here first to get rid of the error:
    iTunes: Error 13019 during sync
    Then you should be ablt to make the backup. Just not that the backup that iTunes makes does not insluced synced media like apps and music.
    iTunes: About iOS backups
    - You can transfer iTunes purchases to the new computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - For other music you will need a third-party program like one of those discussed here. Google for more.

  • Hi, i'm having trouble with syncing my iPod. (after the latest iTunes-update)

    It's a classic, but I have no idea what generation... but it was bought in early 08, and have 80gb. Anyway, it has been working fine all the time, but by the latest iTunes-update, it has stopped working. (mac) Every time I try to connect it with my computer, iTunes says that "this iPod appears to be destroyed, try to restore" (I'm having iTunes in Norwegian, so not sure if this is the direct translation, but hopefully you'll get the picture) - and I try to do this, again and again, but nothing seems to work. I have tried to turn off the computer, put iPod in disc-mode, let the battery run out, give it a two-week break, and now I'm out of guesses on what to do. But no matter what I do it allways appear to have zero songs on it after I am done syncing, and I allways get the "try to restore"-message when i connect it again.
    It's possible that it's just old age or something, but I really want to try everything first, as it seems to be all right otherways. It also works when I connect it with my friend's  PC, but since she has ****** taste of music () it's not an option. I have a MacBook, also from 2008.
    And just to clearify. I have an iPad2, and an old iPod nano (2006) and both works with my computer/iTunes.

    See:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I would start with
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

  • Serious trouble with syncing

    A few weeks ago I've discovered that my 8G Nano won't sync after I plug it in, it will just freeze and do nothing - it will sync automaically when it's first plugged in, but if I want to sync it again I have to unplugg it and then plugg in again.
    And today it converted all my music to a select playlist because I had no free space, and now I can't reset or restore it. It says that "all playlists no longer exist" and everytime I unplugg it and plugg in again, the settings will be just the same, with the select playlist.
    What can I do??

    Hi,
    Thanks for the response.
    Well, I have it turned on, if that's what you mean. On both the phone and the computer (when phone is hooked up) I have the message that the last time I synced was 9/17/13. Every once in a while, while charging the phone overnight, with wireless on, I get a message saying that in order for iCloud backup to work the phone must be plugged in and connected to a wireless network. Apparently there is a failure to communicate with the mother ship, despite my following instructions.
    My suspicion is that this failure is related to the failure to sync with iTunes, but I'm just guessing.

  • I am having trouble with syncing my iPhone 5 to my iTunes on my macbook

    I have been trying to sync my iphone 5 with my macbook but itunes keeps saying 'error (-54)'. I downloaded new albums and they will not sync onto my iphone, and this has never been a problem in the past. Also, on my itunes, when i click on 'Iphone' it shows some of the song titles faded out with a dotted circle beside them, indicating that they cannot be played. I have tried restarting my mac but it has not worked. Could anyone help me?

    Hello, katieokane1. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    This sounds like a possible permission issue with the iTunes Media Folder.  Follow the steps in the article below to make sure the permissions are set to read and write.  You can also navigate to ~/music/iTunes/iTunes Media and get info on to make sure permissions are set to read and write.

  • TS3988 Trouble with Syncing with iCloud and my Mac (and iPhone)

    I have moved my @me.com account to iCloud. Now it doesn't sync with any my devices. I can access iCloud itself and have full view of calendars, etc. They are incorrect as they are not synced with my Mac and doesn't update my iPhone.  I have tried to check my account subscription but cannot find it on iCloud.
    Can anyone help?
    Warm regards
    Jeff

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • Trouble with syncing apps

    Bought some new apps for my iPod Touch but for some reason it won't let me sync them. Tried the apps page through the devices link but it looks disabled. It won't let me click on anything. Everything else on the iPod works fine.

    Is the computer you normally sync the iPod with?  Have you checked to make sure the restriction for Installing Apps has not been enabled?  To check, head to settings -> general -> restrictions.

  • Trouble with sync -- Outlook, XP, Error 0x80040057

    My tasks and calendar are in Outlook.  I just bought the BB to enable me to carry all this with me, but I like to do as much as possible on the desktop, then sync to the BB.
    Problem -- trying to sync Outlook calendar and tasks won't work.  I get error 0x80040057.  Check Documentation.
    Upgraded from Desktop Manager 4.5 to 4.7. -- didn't help.
    I REALLY don't want to switch from outlook to some other calendar program. 
    Any suggestions?

    BB techs got my problem solved.  It turns out that 4.5 and 4.7 Desktop Mgr don't support Outlook 2000.  We had to go back to Desktop Mgr 4.2.2 and even then had to drop in some different drivers to get everything to work.
    Up to speed now, though...thanks to the BB techs.
