I downloaded a song for my ringtone, went to set it and it said it could download my purchased songs. I press it and it checks downloads and disappears and my song doesn’t appear. The song is i was all over her by salvia palth . It just doesn’t appear in my ringtones at all
iPhone X, iOS 16
That's because you downloaded a song, not a ringtone. To make it into a ringtone you need to trim it to 30 seconds or less and convert it to the M4R format. You can convert it in Garage Band.
In addition to wht Kurtosis12 provided, if you don't want to trim the song, using something like Garage Band (an app you have on your iPhone), go back to the iTunes Store and instead of looking at songs, look at the Tones Store and buy the tone you want as a tone. They typically cost about $1.
Read the section in this link about Purchase Ringtones --> Use tones and ringtones with your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
It doesn't have to be Garage Band, I just mentioned that one because it's an Apple product and seems to be the most popular.
Look in the App Store and see if there is an audio editing program that will run on the iOS version you have and will save the audio file in the M4R format.
However, lobsterghost1's suggestion would probably be the easier option.
Ahh i see , it always leads back to garage band😞 unfortunately apple does not favor older phone models so i can’t even download garage band … But thank you so much for your efforts!!!
