Solution -Re: Problems installing ringtones

[Rod Blitvich]

Thanks Ronnie Don't know if this is the proper way to do it, but this worked: Export purchased ringtone from iTunes to desktop (drag to desktop) Open new project in Garageband Import ringtone to new project (drag in) Garageband Share Menu - Send Ringtone to iTunes It then goes to iTunes into the Ringtones folder (before it was in the Music folder) Sync iPhone Voila! yippee! ta Blitto On 15/01/2010, at 2:07 PM, Ronda Brown wrote: Hi Blitto, Looks like my reason below might be the reason your wife can't "create ringtone" from iTunes Store purchased music. <http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10890455&#10890455> Cheers, Ronni On 15/01/2010, at 1:54 PM, Ronda Brown wrote: Ah Blitto, The Error 11556 I wonder if it means "If you are not in the U.S., then itunes purchased ringtones are not available". I'm sure though that you can purchase ringtones from iTunes store from Australia now, you couldn't for a long time. I've only ever created my own ringtones for my iPhone 3G S, I haven't tried to purchase a ringtone from iTunes Store. Your wife is receiving this message after she selects - Store > Create Ringtone. It won't appear in Ringtones until it is converted into a Ringtone (m4r) I'll get back to you if I find why this is happening.
