Thanks for that suggestion. That got me back to experimenting a bit.
Didn't seem to matter although I thought at first it did. I put in the
country code at the beginning of a contact I had deleted and recreated.
However, I did that to one I didn't create and it didn't seem to make a
difference.
I did notice though that the hint on a contact ringtone says "double tap
to indicate a type". So, Before I went down and selected the ringtone, I
went to the heading ringtone and double tapped that. Then when I selected a
custom ringtone it played.
It worked once but so far not the second time but at least it worked
once.
Interesting to me is the fact that all my contact / custom ringtones used
to work just fine and I'm not sure just when that changed.
Thanks for that pointer.
Regards,
Wayne

Hi Wayne,
I know this may not help you, but for whatever it's worth, I never had a
problem assigning custom ringtones to any contact and having them play when
said contact called.
I wonder if it has to do how you have the phone number entered in your
Contacts. I guess an easy way to find out is to check how Voiceover
announces a caller you want to assign a ringtone to. For example.
Assume you have somebody by the name of Jack Miller in your contacts and
Jack's phone number is 202-555-1234.
Now, get Jack to call you and see if Voiceover says "Call from Jack Miller"
or if Voiceover says "Call from 202-555-1234".
I think if it says "Call from 202-555-1234" this might be the problem.

Sieghard

Subject: contact ringtones not playing - revisited
I did a bit of researching in the archives today and a bit more on Google
but did not find an answer to the issue of contact ringtones not playing
instead of the default. Has anyone found any resolution to the problem?
I can assign a ringtone to default and it plays nicely. If I put
something else in as default and assign the first ringtone to a contact it
does not play when I receive a call from that contact. I still get the
default.
Has anyone found an answer or shall I just hope for a fix in IOS 7?
Regards,
Wayne
