I'll give these examples

  • El discurso del presidente no estuvo a tono

It means that the president didn't make a good speech

  • Aún no estoy a tono

I'm not still ready

It's in tune, probably referring to a musical instrument or a voice.

Hola,

En Colombia a veces se dice "estar entonado" para referirse a estar un poco borracho, no caído de la borrachera, pero empezando.

Hope this helps.
