I got it to work. First make sure you select to sync your "tones" on your phone options in iTunes. then I just keep "apply"ing the changes and restarted my phone and itunes after each round of "apply".It finally took after starting back up and syncing after the 2nd round of restarting. They will then show up as a seperate section under the "sounds" options, mine is on the top of the list, before the factory options.


Hopefully this helps someone.

I found my missing ringtones in a different folder in itunes. They are all .m4r. So I tried dragging them into the tones window in itunes. Nothing happened. I then dragged them into the tunes folder but they do not show up in iTunes. I've tried the Add to Library Option. Nothing happens. Not stumped yet but will have to revisit this at another time. Maybe Apple can't help us out with this?????
