Downloaded a ring tone on my iPhone . Tried syncing it on iTunes on lap top- no joy!
It's in the iTunes library and in my music on iPhone but won't go into ringtones.
Help please?

Have you put it into the ringtone section of iTunes - It should not be showing under music!

I have made my own ringtones from parts of songs in my library. From memory I had to trim a section to be <30 seconds in length, rename this to be a .mpr file-type and then place it in the iTunes "ringtones" section

Saves having to fart around using itunes, you open up a song you want as a ringtone, crop it to the bit you want, it will then convert and place it in the phone for you.

Using itunes to make a ringtone is very very easy if you know how and you certainly dont need to be downloading any other programmes to do it.

Last time i did it i just googled it and followed the steps, it was so long ago ive forgot, but theres not many steps to it, and after i did one i didnt even need any instructions after that, very straight forward.

Heres a guide http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/1...n_5901540.html

Im guessing your problem was either not trimming the song down enough or not changing the file type to the correct one

Flipping ITunes ! Taken me days to sort out and finally got it!
If I buy a ringtone why don't they put it in the right format ?
I had to change it to a .m4r. Why don't they just send it in the right format in the first place?
