22. If you are manually managing what syncs to your iPhone when you connect it to iTunes, then click your iPhone under "Devices" in the left column in iTunes. Then in the right column, click the "Ringtones" tab. Ensure that "Sync Ringtones" is checked and the desired ringtone you want to sync is showing up under the ringtones list. Then click the "Sync" button at the bottom to begin transferring the ringtone to your iPhone.
