how can I set a purchased tune as a ringtone?

I have downloaded a tune in a window that opened directly from Ringtone Settings. I’ve done everything according to the instructions, it says it has been downloaded, but I’m still not able to set my new tune as a ringtone. It’s not visible in the settings section even though it is in my library on iTunes.

I don’t understand exactly what this means.


iTunes music (e.g., songs) cannot be used as ringtones. Only items specifically designated as ringtones can be used as ringtones.
