Unable to convert purchased songs to ringtones Error (11556)

Whenever I follow the steps to create a ringtone with songs purchased from itunes store, I get the following error message:
"iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. An unkniown error occurred (11556).
Make sure your network connection is active and try again"
Yet I can connect to the iTunes store if I want to check my account or buy songs. What can I do to correct this - I am connecting from Australia.

Apple should just come out and tell the truth: even though they advertise you can make ringtones out of your downloads in every regional iPhone page (UK, MX, AU, etc.), this feature isn't available anywhere outside US...
Error 11556 is short for: we haven't solved that copyright issue _just yet_

    There are also a number of apps available. If you do an internet search for something like "iTunes ringtone maker" you should find a number of possibilities such as the following: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ringtones-for-iphone-ringtone/id380908399?mt=8  I've never used an app for that so can't give you any input on which one.

  • Converting purchased music to ringtone

    Every time l try to convert a purchased song from itunes to ringtone l get a error code of 11556 stating itunes could not connect to itunes store, please make sure your network connection is active. My connection is active so l am confused as to what the error code is, anyone know.

    The only way to convert the protected AAC files of your purchases is to burn them to an audio CD, use the audio CD to re-rip into iTunes in the format you need. Welcome to discussions!

  • How can I convert itunes songs to ringtones

    I have just purchased on iphone 4.  I have many songs that I bought through the iTunes store that I wish to convert to ringtones.  I have tried several apps such as Ringtone Maker, Myxer, etc., and I get to the point where it just fails.  Either I can't copy the file to my desktop, or the songs won't sync to my phone or something else happens.  I watched ste-p-by-step videos of one app and when it gets to the next step, it won't allow me to do that option so I can't "finish".  Then on another, the text instructions don't give me an option that shows in the list.  Does anyone know of an app that works to convert these already-purchased songs, or some way that I can use my songs to convert them to ringtones.  I called Apple Support and they were no help since they don't support any of the "other-owned" apps on the iPhone.  I paid a lot of money for this phone, and even more in all the iTunes I purchased, there's got to be something I can do.  I love this phone, but the small choice of silly ringtones is the only thing I don't like about it.  Any help would be appreciated.

  • PI Trace : Unable to convert the sender service in error log

    Good Day to All !
    There are many messages failing in PI Production system. I think  Interface & Sender service doesn't exist in PI system. Any suggestions ? Much appreciated.
    Regards,
    Hari Suseelan

    Issue: 
    Unable to convert the sender service to an ALE logical system
    Verification:
    If the incoming messages from SAP Back end system having different Sender Component Name defined.
    Error Log :
    Resolution:
    Step 1: 
    Ensure which is the relevant SAP Backend system to feed the incoming messages (SAP ECC, SAP CRM, SAP SRM etc).
    Have to assign the relevant logical system name of the underlying SAP backend system.
    Step 2:
    Ensure that all the relevant business system (for the above logical system) defined and configured on SLD.
    Step 3:
    We have to map the above logical system by  enabling header mapping on Receiver Agreement , enable check box- > Sender Communication Component.
    Future Prevention:
    Ensure while any new interface is developed have this configuration enabled if the incoming messages from SAP system and custom defined Sender Component name is defined.

  • Unable to upload purchased songs to ipod

    Just got new IPOD replacing IPOD I had years ago. I am using my same account that I had then on different computer and I am unable to upload my purchased songs to my ipod. Message states that I do have permission on this computer.
    Any thoughts to resolve.
    Thanks.

    You're welcome, azguy, no problem!
    Just for testing purposes, could you reply back on this thread one more time? I'd like to see if I get an automatic email notification from that or not, since the notifications seem to have been working on/off lately.
    Thanks!

  • All purchased songs not authorized, error = -3253

    Hi,
    I just purchased a full album off iTunes and it can't seem to download. It just comes up with the error message = -3253. Anyone knows what this means?
    At the same time, all of my purchased songs from itunes can't play! It says that my computer is not authorized to play these songs. So, I authorize them, one by one. After all that, it still says my computer is not authorized to play the songs. I have re-authorized them twice already and I now have 3 times remaining!
    I hope someone can help me out. Thanks.

    Change the iPod's drive letter. That has helped several folks.
    Directions: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1493
    I know your symptom isn't in that article's list, but try it.
    I assume the songs will play in itunes, correct? If you get the evil authorization loop while just trying to play songs in iTunes, there are other things to try. If they just won't go to the ipod, the drive letter change should work.

  • Unable to sync purchased songs after saving on storage device and reimaging

    itunes will not let me sync all my purchased songs to my ipod since I saved the songs on a storage device and reimaged my computer. It says that I am "not authorized to play them on this computer" What the heck happened?! I have alot of purchased songs that I can not play now!

    Choose Authorize Computer from the Store menu in iTunes and sync the iPod again.

  • Unable to copy purchased songs from iTMS to my iPods

    When I try to load songs purchased from iTMS I get the following message:
    'Some of the items in the iTunes library were not copied to the iPod because your iPod software is too old. Go to the Summary tab in
    iPod preferences and click Update and get the latest iPod software update.'
    In the Version panel in the Summary tab "Your iPod is up to date" is
    displayed and the Update and Restore buttons are greyed out. I can't update
    or restore. I went to the Apple store in McLean, VA and they did a restore
    on my iPods (Nano and Shuffle).
    I can copy songs from my CD collection to my iPods but not purchased songs
    from iTMS. All of my software is up to date. I have iTunes 7.0.2 (re-
    installed several times trying to solve this problem). My iPods appear on
    the desktop and in iTunes. I have Deauthorized and Authorized my computer.
    All of my songs play on my computer with no problem.

    ditto here.
    3rd Gen IPod works fine.
    5th Gen iPod mounts on desktop and in iTunes.
    - iPod Summary shows "n/a" in the Software Version and Serial Number fields.
    - Version Summary shows "[My] iPod is up to date", but the "Restore" button is not active.
    - Attempt to sync/copy Library results in alert...
    "Some of the items in the iTunes library were not copied to the iPod because your iPod software is too old. Go to the Summary tab in iPod preferences and click Update and get the latest iPod software update."
    - All but iTunes Store purchases sync/copy.
    - Have thoroughly un-installed and re-installed iTunes.
    - Have attempted various USB ports for connection.
    - Verified working status with other iTunes 7.0.2 installed macs (i.e. Software and Serial field are populated, and "Restore" button is active.
    ? I had a similar issue previously when updating to iTunes 6.x- regarding the "...software too old" alert text. Resolved this by deleting and reinstalling the iPodDriver.kext extension. Does iTunes 7 still install this driver? Checking extensions, i've only tracked down an iTunesPhoneDriver.kext.
    ? Also an "unrelated" odd note... my new 5th Gen came shipped from Apple, already formatted for Windows.
