Why downloaded alert tone appear in ringtones list?

I've downloaded a few new alert tones, but for some reason they all appear as ringtones. Once they are not in the Alert tones list I am not able to select them. I've noticed other users are having the same issue. Why is this happening? Any way to fix it?

Hi,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

Downloaded apps not appearing in "purchased" list

I've downloaded few iOS apps from Kuwait App Store but months later I switched the region to USA App Store. I've downloaded the same apps again (from USA App Store this time); however, the apps are now missing in my "purchased" list even though I've downloaded them again!
Is there anything I can do to make the apps appear in the "purchased" list? It will help me a lot in case of setting up a new iPhone or any iOS device.
Thanks a lot in advance

Nobody got an answer?

Why doesn't Lightroom appear in my list of installed apps, with the option to update it.

All the other apps appear available to update, but with Lightroom I have to download it and do a fresh install each time.

Sorry, re-reading the info, the path is correct - but it isn't perhaps as clear as it should be; might I suggest changing the wording to something like 'look for the opm.db file located at
/AppData/Local/Adobe/OOBE/opm.db
however - that doesn't solve the issue of Lightroom 5 not being listed in my installed apps!

Custom ALERT TONE for iphone need HELP please.

I understand how to create a custom TONE as an M4R file and import into itunes into the TONES library.
When i sync my TONES to my iPhone, it lists as a RING tone.
My custom ring tones, which are approximately 10 sec long work just fine when set as my RING tone for incoming calls.
HOWEVER ....
What i am DESPERATELY trying to do is create a custom ALERT tone and have it LIST as an ALERT tone in my phone and NOT a ring tone. Seems custom tones do not work for sms alerts.
I searched EVERYWHERE and can not seem to find an answer. I realize apple wants us all to BUY alert tones, but i should be able to create my own too no?
I created some custom alert tones, approximately 1 sec long each. Converted them to M4R files and sync'd them to my phone.
In my phone they appear under the RING TONES list and not ALERT TONES.
Maybe this dosent matter, however, when i try to set my TEXT ALERT SOUND to one of my custom ALERT tones, they do NOT work. My text messages come in without playing the sound.
Can ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME figure out how to properly create a TONE as an ALERT TONE for my iphone?
HUGE THANKS to ANYONE that can help.

I've never been able to assign custom tones under alerts. It doesn't matter though as you can assign ringtones as alerts as of iOS 5 I believe. I had a similar issue with silent alerts, sometimes they would play, other times theywouldn't, but they would always play when selecting them under settings. Resetting all settings (not content) has so far fixed that issue for me. Try resetting your settings after you've synced your tones.

Your only chance is setting it up as new device without using the latest backup afterwards, which you already did.
If this does not work, you should get it serviced:

Hi jaswantfromlondon,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact context for when or how these tones disappeared. If your tones have disappeared and you are having issues restoring them, you may find the information and steps outlined in the following article helpful (it refers specifically to 8.1.1, but the steps may more generally apply to your situation):

I bought a ringtone from the store but it doesn't appear on the ringtone list? What I'm doing wrong?

I bought a ringtone from the store but it doesn't appear on the ringtone list? What I'm doing wrong?
how can I set this ringtone as my default Tone?

I tried that already.. the thing is, i press "buy more tones" in the "incoming call tones" panel, and the ringtone i purchased appears as "downloaded", but it only appears on the iphones itunes, not in the tones panels.
I know it's a small thing but y payed for this...

I have a question regarding my txt/alert tones. I recently updated my iPhone 5's software without first backing it up on iCloud or my computer (oops). After my phone finished updating, i lost the new ringtones and txt/alert tones i had bought.

I have a question regarding my txt/alert tones. I recently updated my iPhone 5's software without first backing it up on iCloud or my computer (oops). After my phone finished updating, i lost the new ringtones and txt/alert tones i had bought. I connected my iPhone to my computer and sync'd it hoping that it could download my purchases from the itunes store and then put them back on to my phone but no such luck. When i look at my iphone on my computer and look at tones, they do not show up at all. However, if i click on the "On This iPhone" tab and click on "Tones" the deleted ringtones and altert tones show up...they are just grey'd out and have a dotted circle to the left of them. I also tried to go to the iTunes store on my phone and redownload them and it tells me that i have already purchased this ringtone and asks me if i want to buy it again. I press Cancel. I know when i do that with music it would usually let me redownload the song without buying it again but it wont let me with the ringtones...so how do i get them back? any help would be greatly appreicated

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

Why mp3 songs can't make it as alert tones for tex...

Hey Nokia, why is your lumia phones can't put mp3 songs as alert tones for text messages? This is a big problem on your lumia phones because we missed a lot of text messages because your built in alert tones is not enough to catch our attention when we have a incoming text messages especially in a noisy environment. All the other brands of smartphones including the dumbphones are capable of having mp3 songs as alert tones for text messeges. Please do something about this.

Still no update to SMS alert tones!!!! Why?

I really cant understand why Apple seem to refuse to allow the customisation of the message alert tones. Dispite what must have been numerous requests to do so since its launch.
And now we have the iPhone 4, the new iPhone to compete as one, if not the, best smartphone in the world..
Yet we still cant do what I know a lot of us want.
The only reason I really bothered to JB my iPhones was because I could customise the alerts and create themes.
I really dont want to JB this version but still Apple insists on making this a no option. I know guys say its not top of their list but blimey this has been a basic requirement for most guys since the beginning. Not even an App not that I think one could be created given the principal involved in access core software.
But really why couldnt Apple do this small thing??
Instead of sitting in a public place hearing one of those generic tones and watching a good few people all check their phone including me!!!
I am only left with the silent option which really in this day and age isnt a great feature of a £500 phone!!

agree! fully... i could do this with my phone in the 90's! the fregin 90's!
