I have read of others having same problem of missing tones after restore or upgrade. Fwiw - I always save backups of everything on my iphone to my PC using iTunes and only use iCloud as my secondary backup. Using iTunes allows selection of each category including "tones". Even though the tones were restored, I found that each contact was reset back to default. I had to go back to each contact, select "edit" and then select "ringtone" which brought up the listing of available tones and all my custom tones were at the top of the list.
if you purchased ringtones or downloaded free ring tones from the iTunes Store and they are missing, you should be able to go to the iTunes Store on your iPhone, select "more" then select "purchases" and re-download them, they may only be listed under the music category. Although I also have heard some people are missing ring tones from their purchases. In this case, you will need to email or call apple customer service.
if all this fails, your can use iTunes or any other music editor to make your own ring tones. Basically you save a copy of the song in m4a format, edit the start and stop times to be 30 sec max play time and save the clip as an .m4r file. You can google the procedure, it's fairly easy. In iTunes, save the clip with a new title then go to the actual file location on the hard drive and simply change the file extension to m4r, then add the file to iTunes and it will show up under "tones", repeat as desired then you can sync the tones.
without iTunes, you need to use an app to make ring tones on your iPhone - Apple has not yet provided this functionality.

iTunes does not load to your phone. iTunes is the program that syncs your music over to the iPhone. You have to download iTuens on to your computer, then sync the iPhone with the USB cable.
See this link: Download the latest iTunes to your computer : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Set up iTunes syncing:
Connect iPhone to your computer, and open iTunes (if it doesn’t open automatically).
In iTunes, select iPhone in the sidebar.
Configure the sync settings in each of the settings panes.
Click Apply in the lower-right corner of the screen.
By default, “Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected” is selected

Best way to add ringtones is to goto www.audiko.net . It has a "google like " search bar on it.You type the ring tone you want and save it as "iphone" ringtone. Once saved open up your itunes and the toen wil be in the ringtones section of itunes for you to sync to your phone and select it . Fast and very easy and best of all free to do i have hundreds of ringtones on my iphone from this method . :)
I had the same problem. I hooked my phone back up to iTunes and synced my phone. Ringtone disappeared from phone, but remained in my computer's iTunes. Then I added it back to my phone through iTunes by syncing ringtones specifically. Here is step by step:
1. Plug in iPhone
2. Sync Phone
3. Click on iPhone, open Ringtones tab
4. Check "Sync ringtones" box and Select your Ringtone
5. Click Sync
This worked for my phone. Hope it helps. I used my phone to download ringtone.
For Mac users, this is surprisingly simple using Garage Band (part of the iLife product line).
Simply take your source audio material (no more than 30 seconds in length), and plunk it into a new project in Garage Band.
Then, go to "Share" > "Send Ringtone to iTunes"
When this is complete, simply connect your iPhone, go into iTunes and from the "Ringtones" tab under your device enable the new ringtone.
Do a sync.
Finally, go into iPhone settings and choose your new ringtone from the sounds menu.
WHEN YOUR IPHONE IS CONNECTED TO YOUR MAC/PC UNDER DEVICES YOU WILL SEE YOUR PHONE THEN GOT TO RINGTONE TAB AND SELECT SYNC LL RINGTONES REMEMBER THAT YOU CAN ONL DOWNLOAD PURCHASED RINGTONES TO YOUR IPHONE.
