as the title says im trying to figure out how to apply a ring tone for a particular person that is located on my storage car...im trying to set a ring tone for each person and as we all know there is not enough space on the phone but i don't see how to do it unless the actual file is located in the ring tones folder under my documents in the phones storage......can anyone help or give some advice

now i am unsure if this was something left over from my wizard but i have noticed if the ring tones are placed on the root directory of the card (i.e. not in any folder what so ever or in a file) then the unit will pick up on the ring tones on the card but be forwarned if said card is missing then the unit will default the standard windows mobile ring tone

1a. Copy the music file to the root of your memory card OR
1b. Copy the music file to the RINGTONES folder of the phone's internal memory (Use 1A method if you need your storage space on your internal memory)
2. Go to contacts and find the contact you want to set the ringtone for and edit their contact details.
3. There will be a RINGTONE field and select that
4. A drop box will appear, then select that file you copied from your SD card.

Not sure if this is what you want, but this does a registery hack so you can have all your ringtones saved onto your micro sd card and be played without saving it onto the device. Works without any issues on my touch running wm6.1.

HKCU\Control Panel\SoundCategories\Ring\Directory:
Change \Windows\ TO \Storage Card\

***You need to create a folder in the root of your SD card named "My Ringtones" Otherwise this won't work***
