Removing hidden tones
How To Make A Ringtone On Mac For Iphone
Some users have found that custom tones that are on their device don't show in iTunes so cannot be removed using the method above. In such cases you could try iFunBox * or a similar third party utility to make changes in the raw file system of the device. In iFunBox try My Device > Toolbox > User File System (Win) or Raw File System (Mac) then iTunes_Control > Ringtones to locate the relevant folder. Any custom tones on your device show up there with random 4 letter file names and a .m4r extension. Deleting all the .m4r files in this folder should clear all custom tones from the list on the device, and you can then add back what you want using iTunes. You may also need to delete the .plist file found in this folder. Copy off the .m4r files first if you don't have original copies of them on your computer.
* Windows 10 users may need to uninstall iTunes if it was installed from the Microsoft Store and then reinstall using the more traditional iTunes64setup.exe available at https://www.apple.com/itunes/download/win64 to work with iFunBox.
N.b. making incorrect changes in the raw file system has the potential to make your device unstable. Backup before you begin and ideally Archive the backup in case there is a need to return to it.
