Changing the alarm tone

Hello. I am using the smartphone Sony Xperia L and I have been having troubles with changing my alarm tone. Once I go to the "alarm sound" option and click on it, I can choose between all the tones the phone already provides me but not a song from my own gallery. I have looked it up and I have found that there is supposed to be a note on the top right, which takes you to the gallery. It used to be like that on my phone too but after a few software updates, it doesn't exist there anymore. Could someone help me find a way to choose a song from my gallery as my alarm tone? Please and thank you.
Solved!

If you are missing the note when you are picking ringtones I suggest that you go to settings > apps > all > media storage > clear defaults. Restart your phone and try again.

  • Can't change clock alarm tone (N97)

    I'm having an issue on my phone (N97) where i try to set my alarm tone to anything other than 'default tone' to wake up to in the morning, when i click on it, the loading bar comes up with "opening" for about 15 seconds,  then i get an error "Clock: Memory full close some applications and try again"
    I only did a hard reset on this phone last week, along with a complete format of the mass memory, then reinstall of apps, yes another handful of hours goven away to nokia. It is running v20
    BestTaskman is telling me i have no applications open and 40.48Mb of RAM free. how can changing the clock tone use up 40Mb of RAM???
    I can change my ringtones in profiles just fine...
    Most probably has somethign to do with the 17.5GB or so of music that I have on the mass memory, but really, that shouldn't make a difference, did they give us a 32GB phone and expect us not to use it?
    has anyone seen this or know how to fix it?

  • Is there a way to change the alert tone for the find my iphone app?

    Is there a way to change the alert tone for the find my iphone app? The one they use from the factory is terrible! I tried it out and could hardly hear it from 5 feet away!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately, so far as I am aware you cannot change this tone. I must admit I don't fully understand your problem, I've tried it myself and can hear it from some distance away.

  • How to change the alarm sound for CALENDAR events?

    I missed an important meeting today, thanks to the almost-inaudible and incredibly short alarm sound in the Calendar app.
    Is there a way to change the alarm sound for events in Calendar?
    Setting another alarm in Clock is viable but obviously inconvenient.
    Thanks in advance!

    Settings > Sounds > Calendar. Maybe it was inaudible because yoursound was not turned up.

  • Nokia 301 set the alarm tone

    Hi,
    is there a way to set different clock alarm tone? (I didn't manage to find it in the user guide)
    Thank you

    farby is righ....
    When you are setting the alarm time, if you scroll down there is an option to set the Alarm tone - Standard, Radio, Open Files, Tone downloads.
    Use Open Files > Alert Tones and there are some different tones you can use there. 
    Edited to add: And while mucking about with it myself, up popped the message that you can switch your phone off at night and the alarm will still go off to wake you up. That's a nice feature.... though considering all the questions about battery life, how will that work!? Just checked the 206 does this too, is this a general feature of Nokia phones?

  • Is there a way to change the ring tone to none for one particular contact?

    I see there is an option to turn the text message settings for a particular contact to 'none'.  Is there a way to change the ring tone to 'none' or 'silent' for only one contact.  This is a person who calls way too often and I used to turn their ringer to 'none' when I had a blackberry.  This way I can talk to this person when it is convenient for me and not have to listen to the ringer everytime they call.

    You need to sync a silent ringtone to your phone & then assign it to that contact. Here's one already made:

  • I have a 4s updated to iOS6 and I cannot change the mail tone. It is stuck.

    No matter how much I try, I cannot change the mail tone and it is really frustrating me. I have restarted the phone, reset the phone, restored the phone. Still no luck. Can anyone help?

    I really appreciate your help! Thank you so much. I can't change any sounds for mail. I have two accounts on my phone, and when I change them both, either through the notification centre, or the sound section they play the sound you click, but then when you actually get an email they revert back to one a quack the other a sci-fi noise

  • How do you change the alarm volume, how do you change the alarm volume

    How do you change the alarm volume on a iPhone 5C?

    You can change it in Settings > Sounds > Ringer and Alerts (or with the buttons on the side of the phone if you have "Change with Buttons" turned on in that same section of Settings > Sounds).
    Note that this change is not specific to the Alarm -- it will change the volume of incoming calls and other alerts as well as the alarm.
    I have found it works better for me to set the sound at the volume I want it to be for incoming calls and then to find an Alarm sound that works best with that volume level. Without changing the volume, some Alarm sounds seem louder or quieter (or at least more or less irritating). You select the sound when setting the alarm and the sound selected will then be the default on future alarms.

  • How can I change the alarm clock sound on my iPhone

    I can't figure out how to change the alarm sound on the Alarm Clock in my iPhone?  Anybody got an idea for me?

    What's wrong with you? Oh, now that you realized you made a mistake and I didn't say "Alarming"? The app tited "Alarmed" is the first thing that pops up if you search the App Store using the search term "Alarmed". It is also the name of the app as it appears on the screen of my phone.  Oh, and the developer refers to it as "Alarmed" on his website.It may not have occured to you but, it is possible for more than one app to have the same name. Most of the people here are smart enough to figure out which one is the alarm clock by reading the description. But, we've already covered the reading comprehension thing, 

  • Changing the alert tone when "find my phone" is activated?

  • How to change the Busy tone of WIC-2FXS in 2610

    My local FXS card is connected to my office PBX CO port. When a far end caller disconnects a VoIP session, my local FXS generates a very strange tone to my PBX so that the AA of my PBX cannot detect such busy tone and hence cannot drop the call. The strange tone is very different from the normal busy tone from PSTN.
    Anyone can teach me how to change the FXS busy tone when a VoIP session is disconnected.
    Thanks.

    Configure the voice port for the local territory's call progress tone setting. The call progress tone setting determines the settings for dialtone, busytone, and ringback tone.
    The default for this command is northamerica. For a list of supported countries
    router(config-voiceport)# cptone country

  • How can I change the alarm ring sound?

    I had to reboot my entire iPhone system yesterday, and now I can't figure out how to change the sound or the volume of the alarm, neither in the manual nor on the phone. Thanks in advance.

    To change the sound associated with an alarm, when setting the alarm, go to the Sound area and select your sound from there. You can set an individual sound for each alarm. The alarm volume is the same as the ringer volume. Set it when the phone is awake in the home screen, you can set it with the volume buttons on the side of the phone.
