How can I delete ringtones from new iTunes 12.7?

Hi everyone.

Please, help me. How can I delete ringtones from new iTunes 12.7? 😕

When I open iTunes and have my phone connected to a PC, I can not remove added ringtones or playlists in.

I don't have the folder "Tones" in the PC in the iTunes folder too.

So where is the problem? 😐

iPhone 6s, Windows 10

OK, I found a post that solves this problem (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8064957?answerId=32216337022#32216337022)

Apple is really losing their intuitive approach to usability! I personally think this *****.


  1. Launch iTunes
  2. Click the device button near the top of the screen, looks like this: User uploaded file
  3. In the Summary side panel, check the "Manually manage videos" in the Options section
    (Really Apple? What's the connection between ringtones and videos??!!
  4. Now you can right-click on a ringtone in the Tones section on the device, and a "Delete from library" option will be added

Hello,


I had same issue with my Iphone-4s. After checking in details i found the solution on this,


Please go to summary tab after attaching Iphone and then go to option as Manually Manage...


Then click on sync and see ringtones should be deleted.


2nd stage -

If above steps not deleting ringtones from your phone check available i-OS update and if available install.


After this switch off your phone & turn on after 5 minutes, 5 minutes because it takes some time to overwrite some setting on your phone.


I am 100% sure these 2 steps will solve your problem.


And latest i-tunes does not have any bugs before its coming as an update its well tested by Apple Team.


Enjoy your Day 😝
