[nabs-l] downloading ring tones to I-phone

[Josh Gregory]

No you're not doing anything wrong, you're able to do saves of these files with another platforms such as android, merely saying that for comparison sake. At the moment, anyway, there's not anything I can think of to solve this… You could perhaps email it to yourself and open it in your computer and it will go into iTunes that way. Or suppose you could copy to the clipboard after you have it in the computer and paste it into the appropriate section.

I had someone send me ring tones via text message and they came as media files in my text message which I was expecting, but when I go to open the message with the attached file, it opens it up as a video, and when I try to save it to my phone there is no save button but there is a action button which asks me to open up  the media file in either messages or drop box.  I can remember phones that I have had like the NV2, whenever I would get a pic, video, or any type of audio file, there would be an option to save the file to my phone, but I am not finding the same thing with the I-phone. I have tried emailing the files to myself so that I could open them and hopefully save them to my phone that way, but again, no luck because I am not getting an option to save the file to my phone. Am I doing something wrong? Again, I am not the most tech savvy person around. I am able to do the basic things I need to with my phone and computer, but am trying to expand my technological knowledge, if that makes since the way I said that. Sorry if these questions are becoming a pain, but I figured there would be someone out there a little better with the I-phone who could maybe help me. Thank you for any help you can give.

>> You have to go to iTunes, and to go to your iPhone on your computer. After you click past all the radio buttons that say stuff like music, Summary, info, etc, you will find a radio button that says apps. You need to press the spacebar to check this button. Then, tab until you hear file sharing. After this, you will find a list of apps that can transfer files between your phone and your computer. Select the ring tone app, tab over, and you will find a list of the files that this application can share with your computer. Select the ring tone And tab to the save as button. Save it in a folder, and then add it to your iTunes library from that folder. This can be done by selecting file greater then add file to library. I hope this helps.

>>> Hi all,
>>> I hope you are well. I am trying to download ring tones to my I-phone and was wondering if someone could help me? I downloaded an app that allows me to download ring tones for free, but when I check my phone in the ring tones tab in settings the ring tones I downloaded are not there. I read in the app that the ring tones should show up in I-tunes, but when I go to downloads, they are not there. How can I download ring tones and transfer them to my phone to be able to find them when I go to settings and go to ring tones? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
