MP3 Ringtones

[bhb399mm]

whats going on guys - just joined.

i'm trying to use an MP3 as a ringtone on my verizon 700w.

not sure how to get it done.

Put the MP3 directly into the My Documents folder.

Then, go into settings, sounds and notifications.
There is a drop down box, use it and scroll to find known callers and unknown callers. Once you select which one you want to change you can then select the tone in the list below.

To assign these tones to individual people, go into contacts, select the contact, edit, and scroll down to ringtone and select the tone

I can choose the ringtone, but it won't play it, is there a size limitation?

Looks like a license transfer issue from my laptop....working on it now...thanks

OK, here is an update. I can play any WMA songs that are not digitally signed. I have Windows Media player 11 on my laptop (running XP Pro) and when I transfer licensed songs to my TREO and try to play them it tells "Windows Media DRM. To play this protected file, you must download a license form the Internet. Do you want to? ) When I go online through the Treo to download license it refers me back to my own computer and tells me to transfer the license to the other computer from the existing file. Well WMP11 doesn't allow you to send licenses to other computers, it is supposed to handle it internally. Any thoughts?

I have found out what you need to do to listen to Licensed music. It should work for movies. You need to synch your device through Windows Media Player 11. Connect your device, Click on the synch tab and drag and drop the item you want to listen to/watch and then synch device. It should work then.
