How to use music as a ring tone with Micro SD card

Assuming you have formatted your micro SD card already (Go to Settings>Memory>Card Memory and click format located at the bottom of the screen. It will ask you for your code, which is your last 4 digits of your cell phone number). *Make sure you have saved all data from your card to your computer prior to formatting!*

1) With the micro SD card connected to the computer, drag your mp3 to the "my_sounds" folder.
2) Disconnect the micro SD card from the computer and plug it into your phone.
3) My env touch didn't have "My Sounds" in the shortcuts tab (the little arrow pointing left on the side of the external cell phone screen) so I clicked "Add" at the bottom right, scrolled through the list of possible shortcuts, and clicked "My Sounds".
4) Go back to the shortcut screen and click the "My Sounds" shortcut
5) The name of the MP3 along with a play button to the right should be in the list. Tap the NAME of the song, tap "Set As", then tap "Ringtone".

I put a 13 minute song as my ringtone so I don't think there is much restriction on length.

NOTE: The ringtone is still on the micro SD card. To copy it from the card to the phone:

1) While looking at the list in "My Sounds", click the name of the song, scroll down and tap "Move".
2) Press "Yes" on the box that comes up.
3) Tap the name of the song, click "Set As", and click "Ringtone" to ensure it's still your ringtone.

There you go. There's no "record a sound" and "rename your music file the same name as the sound" etc. You just copy the music file to the My Sounds folder and use the "My Sounds" shortcut to set the ring tone.

This might be easy for some, but this is my first phone I've ever had with capabilities such as micro SD card reading, music playing, internet, etc. I scoured the internet for a couple hours trying to figure out how to set my music as my ringtone. Finally I figured it out and decided to share this with everyone, hopefully to make it easier to find for people like me.

I did each step exactly and not only did the song NOT show up in my sounds...but ALL my pics from the last 5 years were errased when i formatted....UGH!

so when i go to my pics there is nothing but when i go to contacts there are still my pics i assigned as cotact pics....how the HECK do i get my pics back!

so what am i doing wrong...i took th SD card out of my phone, connected to my computer, drug my song to my_sounds, put card back in phone, went to my sounds and its not there...but whe i reconnect to the computer it IS in the my_sounds folder....i drug it directly from itunes...is that a problem?

its from itunes and when i pull it straight from itunes it goes in the my sounds folder as mp4....

how to i convert it to mp3?

did you download the songs from the iTunes store? if so they are protected, and cant be used
