iTunes purchase doesn’t appear in purchase and doesn’t download

I have purchased a ringtone, but it doesn’t download, 4G or wifi. The purchase and download menus are empty.


After signing out of media and purchases and restarting the phone, relogging, it doesn’t work.


Thanks

iPhone SE (2nd generation)

If you've purchased a ringtone from the iTunes Store, but it doesn't appear in your purchases or download, there are a few steps you can try to resolve this issue:

  1. Check for Available Downloads:
    • Open the iTunes Store app on your iPhone.
    • Tap your profile picture in the top right corner.
    • Scroll down and tap "Purchased."
    • Look for the ringtone you purchased in the "Tones" section.
    • If you find it there, tap the cloud/download icon next to the ringtone to initiate the download.
  1. Check Restrictions:
    • Go to "Settings" on your iPhone.
    • Scroll down and tap "Screen Time" > "Content & Privacy Restrictions."
    • Make sure "iTunes & App Store Purchases" are allowed. If not, tap to allow it.
  1. Restart Your iPhone:
    • Sometimes, simply restarting your iPhone can resolve issues like this. Press and hold the power button until the slider appears, then slide to power off. Wait a few seconds and turn it back on.
  1. Sign Out and Sign Back In:
    • Open "Settings."
    • Scroll down and tap "iTunes & App Store."
    • Tap your Apple ID at the top.
    • Choose "Sign Out."
    • Sign back in using your Apple ID and password.
  1. Check Available Storage:
    • Insufficient storage on your iPhone can prevent downloads. Go to "Settings" > "General" > "iPhone Storage" to check if you have enough space.
  1. Reset All Settings (Optional):
    • If the issue persists, you can try resetting all settings on your iPhone. This won't delete your data but will reset all settings to their default values. Go to "Settings" > "General" > "Reset" > "Reset All Settings."
  1. Contact Apple Support:
    • If none of the above steps work, consider reaching out to Apple Support for assistance. They may be able to help you with your specific issue.
