    Did you see my last post?

    Maybe the reason I can't do this is because my phones a 3G?

    My iPhone is a 3G and it works for me.
    One by one the penguins are slowly stealing my sanity.

    Get Ringtonegb.png

    Send SMS with word AUDIKO to number 84767 and get your PIN
    No subscriptions, no hidden fees, only 3.00 GBP for ringtone. Skip this step if you don`t want to send ringtone.

    Says its £3.00 to turn it into a ring tone?

    find a ringtone click 'get iphone ringtone' then on the next page click the download button, ignore the SMS bit

    save the file somewhere on your computer then double click to open the file in itunes.

    once you have the ringtone in itunes (double click on the downloaded ringtone and itunes will open)

    you will then have a 'ringtone' category on the left had side of itunes
    plug in your iphone, then select your iphone in itunes (on the left hand side)
    in the device management pane select 'ringtones' and then select your ringtone and then sync your iphone by clicking 'apply'

    Might be an idea to download and then re-install iTunes. You won't lose the files already on it, it will just repair your current install and add any missing files. Had a similar problem myself and that fixed it.
    Is your PC a 64bit? iTunes has a bit of trouble with 64bit windows computers like mine
