IPhone 4S text tones don't work?

It seems to be a common problem from what I've read… But I was wondering if there was a solution. I've gotten a few texts and it didn't make a sound. I've read one thing that had to do with iCloud, but I'm not using iCloud…

Anyways, is there a solution to this problem?

Don't know what you are talking about girl but mine works perfectly. The text-tone is set to "Tri-tone" and I can hear it perfectly when I receive texts. I have iCloud sync but i bet it doesn't have anything to do with it.

Just checkin: make sure its not on mute. Or increase the volume in Seetings>sounds.

My tones also have disappeared except for the incoming call tone.

  • Why won't my file appear in Tones? Ok, I'm kind of in a hurry here. I have a ringtone on my computer (it's a Dell) that is an.m4r and under 30 seconds and everything required to be a ringtone on my phone (iPhone 4) but whenever I drag it from my Libraries to Tones it just does, nothing. Nothing appears and I can't get anything in the tones section of iTunes. Can somebody Please help?
  • My iphone 4s won't play text tones or have media volume? My iphone 4s recently stopped playing text tones and when i try to listen to any sort of media, the volume is gone and will not turn up. The switch on the side is on, i checked and its been like this for weeks. I was wondering if there's anything i can do to fix this problem.
  • IPhone Ring tones? How do they work? I recently got an iPhone, and I have an idea for a great ringtone, but I don't want the ringtone to be in my music if you understand what I mean, is that at all possible? Like is there anyway where I can have that song as my ringtone but the song itself would not be found in my music folder? Also if that doesn't work then once i have that song as my ringtone then can I delete that song from my iTunes/iPhone and still have it as my ringtone?
  • Iphone 4s changing ringtones, text tones and all those other sounds? I've figured out how to change ringtone but the song I have that I want for the other tones doesn't show up? Is there a way to change that? I have a laptop if I need to use it.
