Cant use music tracks as ringtones!

have you installed the software that comes with it?

you get a link to a folder called ringtones in the my mobile device
put the mp3 in there and then sync the phone
you cant set any mp3s as message alerts (that i know of)
i spent an hour shouting at it last night before i dicovered that

if you are a mac owner like me, then life will be alot harder

Hi!

It´s easy to do - copy at your Xperia a song from your music-folder into the "ringtone"-folder - than go to your contacts, choose one of them and "edit" there the ringtone - its in the pulldown-menu there!

Have fun!

Spot on Kev and it works a treat and is free

For mac users there is a great program called Missing Sync For Android

Keep contacts in sync wirelessly via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. Transfer music, ringtones, photos, files, and videos fast with a USB cable. The Missing Sync will make it easy to use your information and media files on an Android phone - and take them wherever you go.

I'll post it in the downloads section

All said is fine, but I have 1000s of MP3s, and when I want a particular ringtone for a contact, I spend whole day searching from the lots. Is there any ways, to browse the folder and take the exact song. Please advice.
