Ringtones/ringback

After getting the maxx last week I have been having trouble getting my ringtone/ ring back to change. I have purchased both and set default to the new ones but they still play my old ones. I have only seen a place to manage ring back on my phone and online. They show the new ones default, but it rings a standard ring. Anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

Hi, Lisadfmms-

I love the ringback tones and ringtones I get! Did you purchase these online or from the My Verizon mobile app? Typically when you purchase online, they come to your device as a picture message and you can save the tone to the default music app on the Razr. Have you had this experience with them? Do you have a picture/video message block on the phone? Keep me posted so I can continue to help.

Thanks,
