Hello! Most recently, we set our own ringtone on the iPhone and, despite all the difficulties, we still managed to do it. But after all, the tastes of a person are constantly changing - for example, I'm already tired of the song that I just recently set to ring. I want, you know, something new!

Well, creating something new is not a problem (), but what about the old ringtone that is no longer needed? There are not so many options - keep or delete. If left, it will take up precious internal memory. Therefore, we will delete. And here again, Apple is not the way it should be for people.

Why? Because it's not serious at all...

You can't just take and delete a ringtone from your iPhone. Well, there is no such option in iPhone settings!

And how then to be? Now I will tell and show everything. Go!

We will consider only the official method (without jailbreaks and other nonsense). After all, the jailbreak is practically "dead", and this method deleting ringtones will live forever :)

As usual, in order for the information to be as truthful and verified as possible, personal experience, I will do all the manipulations with you.

So, I have two "extra" ringtones in my iPhone:

1. Made and uploaded by myself via iTunes.
2. Purchased from the official store iTunes Store. The price, by the way, is 22 rubles! But for Kipelov, even "fifty dollars" is not a pity :)

Task: remove these ringtones.

Now let's just go!

Step 1 (connect iPhone to iTunes). There should be no problems here - we take the wire (preferably the original one), connect the iPhone to the computer and launch iTunes.

Step 2 (very important point!). After launching iTunes, click on the phone icon in the upper left corner.

And then, at the very bottom, check the box next to the item "Process music and videos manually" and click "Apply".

Step 3 (Open Sound Control). We don’t go anywhere and look to the left sidebar- we are interested in the line "Sounds". We select it - a list of all ringtones that have been downloaded to your iPhone appears on the right.

Step 4 (remove ringtones). Click on any of these ringtones right click mouse, select "Remove from library" and click "Synchronize".

All! We take the iPhone in hand, open "Settings - Sounds, tactile signals - Ringtone" and we see that this sound is no more. Hooray! Although…

Some problems can always arise - where without them? :) And here's what you can do if the above instructions do not help:

• Try installing a different build of iTunes. The fact is that latest versions programs (12.7 and "older") are "stripped down" - Apple removed a lot of features from them. Therefore, and already with its help we are trying to remove the ringtone.
• Try to erase the sound using the same program through which it was originally downloaded to the iPhone. Because if the ringtone was set using third party program(for example, iFunBox), then iTunes may not be able to remove such ringtones.

Still nothing works? Well, you can always ask a question in the comments (preferably, describing your situation in more or less detail) - let's try to deal with the problem all together!
