I just updated my OS to the latest OS but I couldn't find my ringtones which I purchased from iTunes before. All the songs (music) are there but the ringtones was gone. When I search back in iTunes, they did mention that I ever bought that ringtones when I click buy tones but it seems no options to download it again (only buy button and cancel button were available). I tried to visit iTunes.com/restore-tones but they said my tones were not affected.
anyone could help me in this matter?
Thank you very much.

I ran into this problem a while ago when upgrading phones. I think a complete device restore from iTunes may be the only way to keep them. It does indeed seem stupid that music, movies, and apps are re-downloadable, but ringtons aren't.

I have one other question regarding Ringtones. Has anyone figured out an app or method to get your iPhone to recognize ringtone files without using iTunes? I can get the files to the device via E-mail, dropbox, or other service, but can't get the file into the proper location on the phone, so it shows up in the list of tones. I've figured out how to do pretty much everything without needing to use iTunes, except this.

Use waltr. This is a piece of software that uploads anything to the phone and will even convert it to the appropiate formats. More can be found here
