Q: How can I download a ringtone from my old iPhone to my new iPhone without purchasing it again??

I've upgraded from the iPhone 4S to the 5S and have a couple of ringtones that I had purchased, how do I transfer them without having to purchase them again??

Thanks x

you can do that through iTunes.

You will have to make sure that your ringtone file (m4r) is in your iTunes library and then you can sync it to your new iPhone.

Import them to your iTunes library, on your computer, then sync them to your new phone. Otherwise, you will have to re-purchase them.

Purchased ringtones are a one-time download.
