| The noise a cell phone
makes when someone is calling. Today, ringtones are one of the most
popular features of a cell phone and can be set to any imaginable
song, melody, or jingle. Often, cell phones will even allow a user to
set each of their contacts to a different ringtone, allowing them to
know who is calling without even looking at the phone. Below is a
short list of common ringtone questions and answers.
Where can I download ringtones?
There are numerous web pages and services that allow users to
download ringtones for their cell phone. If your service provider
does not have any ringtones you want or you want to try a
different service, do an Internet search for "ringtones"
on any popular
search engine
to find available ringtone download sites.
A good example of a site that has several hundred MP3, WAV, and
MIDI free ringtones is Mobile9.com.

How do I transfer my ringtones from my computer to my cell phone?
Often, many ringtone web pages have the ability to send you
ringtones by calling a number and entering a code for the ringtone
you wish to have. However, doing this type of transfer often costs
you additional money for the ringtone as well as the amount of
data transferred.
An alternative method would be to download the ringtones from
a webpage and connect your phone to your computer using either a
USB cable (often included with your phone) and/or
Bluetooth. Once downloaded
depending on your phone and how you connected you can copy the
songs from your computer to your phone. For example with some
phones and Microsoft Windows you can find your cell phone listed
under My Computer.
How do I convert a ringtone?
There are numerous converters available for different phones.
Often, the manufacturer of the cell phone will provide a converter
to convert a ringtone from one type to another type. If your cell
phone provider or manufacturer does not offer one, search
for "ringtone converter" on any popular
search engine
to find available ringtone converters.
Does my cell phone support ringtones?
What type of ringtones does my cell phone support?
How long or short can my ringtone be?
How many ringtones can my phone hold?
Each of these questions vary on the type of cell phone you have
and your cell phone provider. To get these questions answered, we
suggest referring to the cell phone documentation or your cell
phone provider.
