You guys won't believe this! When I came back to write my last message, I closed out itunes. I just went back over to the mac and reopened it to double-check that the copy to Itunes library option had remained checked. When I reopened Itunes, it told me that the volume was turned all the way down. I have *no idea how this happened, and I would never have figured it out, since I had no problem playing the copy on my desktop. UUUUUUU8UGHG!
So, the volume's back up, and now the ringtone is playing just fine! Esther thank you so much for all your patience and for walking me through this. One things for sure, having gone through the process this many times, I won't forget how to do it! *grin* Take care, Donna > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Esther > Sent: Wednesday, September 09, 2009 2:06 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: copying from itunes > > > Hi Donna, > > Donna Goodin wrote: > > > > > Hi all, > > > > I'm attempting to follow Simon's instructions for creating > > ringtones.
