You can not copy a ringtone or app or anything else to an iPhone when the device is busy syncing with iTunes.

And I rebooted both the computer and the phone after the updates. It only took 10 seconds on my old Motorola Razr. Oh well. The ringtone must be.

Tried to copy the files several different ways. Yes, all my files are. The 2 tones without cover art DID. How weird is that?

Gotta Be Mobile

Unfortunately this drag and drop will not work for me, neither will add files, etc. I have double checked every step and all my ducks are in a row. Why does itunes screw with stuff constantly? All I figure is they want us to pay for ringtones instead of making them. Your phone is synced with a different iTunes library, most likely. I just had this problem and once I switched the phone over to the current iTunes, it worked. It has never shown up as a device using Wi-Fi. Enable it in the summary settings area of iTunes with the iPhone connected.

Any idea how to delete a ringtone from the iPhone once you install one?

I cannot seem to figure that out. Does that still work? I think I have most of my CDs matched but there might a few left. You need a CD drive. My old desktop has one.

Maybe iTunes match will no longer work? Mine uses a USB interface which I hope will be compatible when I eventually have to upgrade to a new machine. I use the drive to import music from CDs into my music archive. The GraceNote service which fills in the CD and track names works for almost everything I think it uses the ordered track lengths for the CD hash key.

Just wondering, has any one else had data loss on this last update to iTunes version The missing tracks appear with an exclamation point inside a circle. Any suggestions on how to speed up the process? Yes, I lost all my customized ring tones, including a sweet recorded song by my then 4 year old daughter. I will never get that back again. This has got me thinking about leaving Apple. Apple the last few years making its computer users doing more and more clicks to do a task that used to be 1 or 2?

Apple trying to be the Windows 98 in In the past versions of iTunes, customized ringtones had to be selected within iTunes, then sync; now, you can just drag and drop them inside iTunes, then sync. The previous iTunes versions The new iTunes V. Name required. Mail will not be published required.
