Where's the Ringtones?!

Ive just docked my iPhone. That little Ringtones tab came up. Now when I try to add the Ringtones thing to my list of information in Music Library, the choice isnt available. And when I go into iTunes Store, the Ringtones thing shows no songs available for it. Not even ones advertised like Green Day's American Idiot or Aretha Franklin's Respect. What the heck is going on?!

In the iTunes store, you need to search for an artist (or song, whatever). When the list comes up, right click on any column and check the Ringtone option. Then you will see if any songs listed are able to be made into ringtones. For your personal collection, you can click on any song in your purchased list (even if there is no bell), then click on Store > Create Ringtone. If the song can be made into a ringtone, the ringtone maker will pop up in the bottom of iTunes, and you can edit, preview, and buy the ringtone. If it cannot be made into a ringtone, it will tell you. Hope that helps!

  • Where is the ringtone file in iTunes?

    Where is the ringtone file in iTunes?  I am trying to download some ringtones in there.  The website says to save the sound file to the ringtone file in itunes so when I sync I can transfer it over to my iphone

    iTunes>Preferences>General>Show>Tones...make sure Tones is checked. If you can't see the sidebar: iTunes>View>Show Sidebar.
    If the ringtone has the proper extension: m4r, simply dropping it on the iTunes app logo will put it in the proper location.

  • ITunes 9 where are the ringtones

    I just upgraded to iTunes 9 and all the "bell" ringtones are not showing any more in my music library. Also when I search for music in the iTunes store and I no longer see which songs can be used for ringtones. Any idea what's going on?

    That's the exact thing I am trying to figure out, I have spent almost the whole day trying to figure out where the "bell" icon went to see if the song is available for ringtone format. Even though I know that you can look for the ringtones directly on your phone but I want to create my own. any idea?
    I'm sorry I wasn't much help. I just wanted to share my frustration as well.

  • Where is the Ringtones folder for iTunes?

    I've created some ringtones and now I need to place them in the correct folder so that iTunes will load them.
    Can anyone point me to where the folder should be?
    Thanks,

    I don't think the problem lies in the iTunes programme. Try turning off the iPhone then turn it back on and plug it in the computer. If it doesn't work try resetting it. Go to Settings>General>Reset. Choose the option to keep your data and reset it. Plug your iPhone in the computer.

  • Where is the ringtones folder in Itunes to put an .m4r in?

    i have an .m4r file i wish to use as a ringtone but for the life of me I can't find a "ringtones" folder in my iTunes (version 10) to drop it in!
    I have been told it is on the left hand side, but it just isn't there.
    How do I find this folder?
    Thanks

    Did any of that make sense?
    I think so.
    A possible cause for splitting up the album is an extra "space" character at the end of the title, which you would not see, or between two words and you just can't notice it. The cure for this is to copy the Album Title from one track and paste it into all the other tracks. Then you know that every track has the same information.
    Another cause is guest artists. If the album's artist is Fred X (for example) and therefore each track is listed as "Fred X", but one song has a guest artists and the artist field says "Fred X and his mate", then that track would be separated out from the others. The usual work round for this problem is to put the guest artist at the end of the song title and delete him (and the space after X) from the artist's field.

  • Where is the ringtone I bought in itunes

    Bought a ringtone from my iPad.  It shows up in my purchases on my laptop, but I can't find the actual ringtone on my phone.

    Did you put it on your laptop?
    If you bought it on your ipad, you would have to transfer it to the computer: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.

  • Where is the ringtones folder on iTunes?

  • HT1711 Where are the ringtones?

    I would like to view & purchase some ringtones or alert tones on my Mac, but with this new layout I cannot find them. Please help.

    Hi Psychomania,
    is there any way, when googling for some howto´s or guides to certain features - say, all security-related stuff - on an E61, to avoid 2/3 of all hits being places to buy the phone and accessories?
    If there is stuff I can look up rather than asking a lot of questions here that have been answered already, I am willing to do that, but it is a bit tiresome wading through tons of ads and commercial stuff to find the kind of articles I´m looking for.
    Regards,

    I just got iphone 5c and i am not happy with it. It uses to much data and i don't even know how. I can't get the ringtones i want for my contacts.I got it on my free upgrade but i want to take it back and get something else but where i got it they say i can't because i don't have the earbuds and i have serches or them. now i am suck with a phone i don't like at all until my next upgrade. this is very dishearten

    1. If you are this unhappy with that phone, and the lost earbuds is the only thing stopping you from taking it back, why do not just buy some earbuds. That way you can get rid of that phone. It all depend upon how much you want to get rid of that phone.
    2. Yet if you are stuck with that iPhone, here is something might help you to control the data usage. By design, iPhones do turn off WiFi when they go dormant. So if a download is in progress and so forth when the phone goes dormant, it will switch to use cellular data, if this setting is left on. Therefore, from multi-sources I have learned that if you keep your iPhone connected to a power source, then it will stay connected to the available WiFi.

  • I would like to know, on the ringtone page, where you can select songs out of your music library, is there a way to remove a song from the list after its selected? I would thin there would be a way to "delete" the songs from the list. (Clock app)

    I would like to know, on the ringtone page, where you can select songs out of your music library, is there a way to remove a song from the list after its selected? I would thin there would be a way to "delete" the songs from the list. (Clock app)
    Let me explain:
    In the clock app for ios 6.0.2 I am a little confused. It allows you to go into your music library, and create a ringtone using any songs you choose. However, I cannot find a way to remove a song from this list, just like I cannot delete one of the preset ringtones (which I'm not trying to do, but just as an example)
    Thanks for your time! If you need more information just ask.
    (I believe both my iPod and iTunes are up to date)

    I believe you just are able to delete them from iTunes.
    Hope it will be helpful

  • Where do you find the ringtone tab on your personal itunes so that you can sync new ringtones to your iphone?

    Where do you find the ringtone tab on your personal itunes so that you can sync new ringtones to your iphone? I am trying to get ringtones from my ringtone app onto my phone and the directions said to click Ringtones on the top of iTunes. I am having trouble finding the Ringtones on the top of iTunes.

    Go to edit then preferences in itunes on your computer and then check the box TONES and then click OK.  with your phone attached to your computer with USB cable select the name of your phone on the left and then in window on right select TONES from the menu items across the top of the window

  • Where to put ringtones in the N9?

    I dont really know where to put this thread. So mods feel free to move it.
    I didnt really care for any of the stock ring tones on the N9, and I had a ring tone on my N97 that was the sound played on Star Trek TNG when the shuttle bay doors would start to open. The problem here is the N9 only lets you shop for new tones, or pull them out of your music.
    I had put up with this on my N97, occasionally hearing this tone while listening to music because I had searched high and low how to put this tone and not have it imported into the music library.
    Is there anyway to put this Mp3 file on my N9 so that it will see it in the Ringtones list, but not end up in the Music player?
    Thanks a ton
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    go to
    settings/security/developer mode
    and enable it.
    it will have you download and install some files. tap ok.
    you should be able to just open the filebox (free download from ovi store) and then go to:
    /home/user/MyDocs
    and then tap and hold, select copy on the all the ringtones you want to copy and then tap the up-arrow (bottom left corner) and you will be in /home/user/
    scroll down to .ring-tones
    tap it to open the folder
    then tap the clipboard and select the ringtones to paste there.
    it should be done. you should be able to see it when you go to select the sounds.
    i have not used these to do individual ringtones for contacts, but have customized the sounds in:
    settings/sounds and vigbration
    for all my rintone, maeil alert tone, message alert tone, calendar alarm tone.
    i have been using the same nokia sounds for these since 2004
    you could also do the following with terminal
    open terminal
    devel-su (enter)
    rootme (enter)
    cp -R /home/user/MyDocs/(file name.mp3) /home/user/.ring-tones/
    you can do that for each different ringtone, just changing the file name.
    to make it easier with terminal, if after you enter the first one, just tap the top right corner for the menu, and select toolbar, then arrows.
    now just tap the up-arrow and then use the left/right arrows to change the file name and then tap enter again. this should save a bit of time once you are good at it.
