Do as many as you want but make sure you can see multiple ringtones on the Ringtones section of your iTunes application. Follow the steps on my original post until it asks you to Sync. Before you sync your iPhone you need to make sure couple of things. Click on the iPhone item on the left side of iTunes and make sure the “Manually mange music and videos” option is unchecked. Then on the “Ringtones” tab , make sure the “ Sync Ringtones” option is checked and then the “Selected ringtones” option is selected. Also, make sure to choose more than one ringtones that you would like to sync. Also, one another thing to make sure might be to keep your ringtones music length to less than 30 seconds. Apple claims to allow up to 30 seconds but I would try to keep it as small as possible. The sample ringtones used for this demonstration are 9 seconds and 12 seconds. At this point of time, you are good to sync your iPhone. Once sync completes you should be able to see multiple ringtones on your iPhone if you go into “Settings” > “Sounds” > “Ringtone”. As you must have realized adding multiple ringtones to your iPhone is not that complicated. There are couple of things that you need to make sure and follow the above instructions.

Have dragged them into the ringtones column of my iphone in itunes. there are 2 ringtones on itunes, but when i looked on my phone (in settings - sounds - ringtone), it only appears 1 song under the custom heading, cant select which tone i want. is that the norm or can we have multiple 'songs' on there and select which one we want - dont seem to have this option? many thanks. regards Lynn -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.shtml> Guidelines - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/guidelines.shtml> Unsubscribe - <mailto:wamug-unsubscr...@wamug.org.au> -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.shtml> Guidelines - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/guidelines.shtml> Unsubscribe - <mailto:wamug-unsubscr...@wamug.org.au>
