Downloaded ringtone won't save to my phone?

I just purchased a new ringtone for my Droid 2 Global and it was sent through a text message to my phone.  When I open up the text message and try to save the audio by pressing down on it with my thumb, it gives me a message saying "error saving attachment."  Is there a way to re-download the ringtone to my phone, or have it re-sent?  I paid for it and want to be able to use it but it won't let me save it on my phone.  It does play just fine though in the text message attachment.  I have also tried to power down my phone, leaving it off for a little bit, and power it back on to no avail.  Thanks!!!

FOR THE GENERAL PROBLEM  OF NOT BEING ABLE TO SAVE ATTACHMENTS SUCH AS PICTURES, AND MUSIC(RINGTONES) BEING SENT VIA SMS(TEXT MESSAGES). IS A VERY COMMON KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE ANDROID OS. TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM IS VERY EASY...
TIHNGS YOU WILL NEED : YOUR ANDROID DEVICE, USB CABLE TO PLUG TO THE COMPUTER, AND COMPUTER.
***sd card must be installed on your phone...
1. CONNECT ANDROID DEVICE TO COMPUTER VIA USB>PROGRAM YOUR PHONE AS USB MASS STORAGE> WINDOW SHOULD POP UP ON COMPUTER.  MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR SD DOCUMENTS BY COPYING EVERYTHING TO A FOLDER ON YOUR COMPUTER(FOLDER SHOULD BE ACCESSIBLE). ONCE THATS DONE.
2. GO TO SETTINGS> STORAGE>UNMOUNT SD CARD> ERASE SD CARD/FORMAT. ONCE CARD IS FORMATTED. MOUNT SD CARD, AND COPY ALL THE FILES BACK INTO YOUR COMPUTER(TIME WILL BE NEEDED DEPENDING ON THE SIZE AND HOW MUCH SUTFF YOU HAVE ON YOUR SD CARD.)
3. LET MEDIA SCANNER RUN, ONCE DONE, GO TO MESSAGES> PRESS & HOLD ON THE PICTURE OR RINGTONE YOUR TRYING TO SAVE, AND CLICK ON SAVE/SAVE ATTACHMENT TO SD CARD.
IT SHOULD WORK, IT DID FOR ME, I WAS GOING CRAZY FOR A WHILE, CALLED LG AND TMOBILE AND NO HELP. UNTIL I DECIDED TO DO IT AND IT WORKED. HOPE IT WORKS.

  • IS IT POSSIBLE TO DOWNLOAD RINGTONES TO MBP FROM RAZR CELL PHONE???

    Does anyone know if it is possible to download ringtones from my RAZR cell phone to my MBP? If it is possible, how do I do it. Thanks.

    I have a moto slvr L7c from verizon which I can browse via bluetooth. I was surprised I was able to since it is well noted that VZ locks their phones so you have to use VCast. I have had no luck with ringtones however...I get the transfer error Faulty was speaking of when trying to drag to the ringtone folder. The phones ringtones are not in the folder so they must be in some part of the memory I cannot access. I have been able to transfer pictures (jpegs)..video (in 3gpp2 and mpeg4 formats) to the phone via bluetooth from my MBP. Music you can only do under windows (in my case XP) via usb cable and Win Media Player 10.....wav files only I guess.
    Sorry that doesn't help your ringtone question.

  • Mozilla Thunderbird hangs all the time, won't download messages, won't save messages,

    Hi,
    I have been running Mozilla Thunderbird since the beginning of the year.
    I have always had problems, but it seems to be getting worse.
    It won't download messages, it won't save messages at the time you send them, instead a window runs for ages saying:
    "Copying messages to saved folder"
    Then it says
    "There was an error saving the message to sent, retry?"
    You hit cancel and then it comes up with:
    "The message was sent successfully, but could not be copied to your Sent folder. Would you like to return to the compose window?"
    Then there is the problem of downloading messages, basically it doesn't all the time, it hangs and I have to either restart the computer or download them on my iphone.
    It can take upwards of 20 minutes to download a single message.
    I had a look at the "Activity Manager" and it seems frozen as well.
    It also sends up the messages that the server has been disconnected or timed out.
    I've had a look through the trouble shooting guide but can't seem to progress this.
    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
    I am running the latest version, and have Windows 7, 64 bit.
    I am fast of the opinion I'd better shell out some cash and get Windows Outlook as Thunderfox is a nightmare.
    Many thanks,
    Adrian

  • Why downloaded ringtone won't work with a contact on iphone5

    I downloaded a ringtone and associated it with my sons number-he changed services to AT&T and has a new number. I can not get that ringtone to work with his new number, Why? It shows up and works in tones...is checked off for his ringtone, but will not work.
        Actually, just tested....can not get ANY ringtones to work for his number!!

    When he calls, does his name show up on the screen for the Caller ID? Have you tried completely deleting his contact and then adding it back as new? If you want before doing that, after you have changed his ringtone, do a reset on the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone restarts, see if the ringtone works for his calls.

  • SMS Picture messages won't save to my phone!

    Hi! 
    I am currently using my BlackBerry Curve 8520 on Virgin Mobile, and when my friends send me pictures of me when I click "Save Image" I click "save" and it says that it all saved well. But when I go to check it on the Media folder or put it as my profile pic in BlackBerry Messenger, when the list of pictures come up it does not show up! 
    I am not sure to do as I have saved the image around 4 times and yet it still doesn't show up! 
    Thanks!

  • I have iphone 3 and for some reason I have lost all my downloaded ringtones and music on my phone and when I sync with my computer it won't reload it? Any suggestions?

    I have an iphone 3 and I have lost all my downloaded ringtones and music but when I sync with itunes it will not load it back on my phone. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    When you sync with itunes on your computer make sure you have all the songs that you want to sync selected in the music tab in itunes when you connect your phone.  Also with your phone connected click on the tones tab and make sure all the ringtones you want are selected there then sync

  • HT201359 I downloaded ringtones from the iTunes Store, and it won't download, bor will it upload on my phone.  What can I do?  If I delete the app, will my money be refunded?

    I downloaded ringtones from the iTunes Store from Nguyen Dev.  It had some amazing tones, but when I tried to download it, it wouldn't work.  I ave tried repeatedly, but to no avail.  If I deleted it, would I get my money back.  My ring tones are so bland that I wanted something that was a reflection of me.  This had it all.  I am so disappointed.  What can I do?

    I had some time finally figuring why I could buy and download from the Itunes store, but could not load it on my IPOD. What finally worked was plugging my IPOD in to the computer, as I would when "syncing", and, after loading, it would show my device in the side bar. You have to go to VIEW in the top Tool Bar and click on SHOW SIDE BAR in the drop down menu. "SUMMARY' tab, on top, is what I clicked on to show an option of restoring my IPOD to the factory defaults. It erases everything on the IPOD, but gives an option of AUTOFILL afterwards, which it does from the computer. This is one solution of many you could try. Good luck.

  • HI, I just got a Macbook Pro.  It's great but my mail doesn't work at all.  It will come up correctly, but take forever to download messages,  then won't delete them,  then won't save them to folders.  Then when I go to quit mail it's like it gets stuck.

    If you just got your new MBP you have phone support from Apple (which is quite good) call them.  800-692-7753 tell the automated answerer "mail technical support" you'll have human quite quickly.  Hope this helps.

    Transfer your purchases from old iPhone to computer iTunes, then select tones in iTunes with your new iPhone connected, do a sync.

  • I had to change my Apple ID. However, it won't change in my phone. I changed it in setting, but when it comes to downloading updates for apps or music, it won't update from my old Apple ID.

    However, it won't change in my phone. I changed it in setting, but when it comes to downloading updates for apps or music, it won't update from my old Apple ID. For instance, I had to change my apple ID from (for instance, "[email protected]") to something else ("[email protected]"). I changed it in settings to the new one, but when I go to update apps, my phone is still connected to "[email protected]"
    What should I do?

    In the Finder do a Get Info on one of those files & the folder it's in, report what it says for privileges.
    Oh, did you maybe change your short username/Home Folder's name?

    Your phone connected, iTunes running, under the "Apps" tab, you've selected this app to install on your phone, correct? Hit the "Apply/Sync" button, lower right on the Apps tab, what happens?

  • Downloaded ringtone on my phone but it didn't work

    I got a brand new iPhone 3GS yesterday and I downloaded a ringtone (two actually) directly to my iPhone from iTunes, not using the computer at all. When it asked me if I wanted to make the ringtone the default, I said yes, and then it downloaded, but the ringtone didn't become the default, and it's not showing up in the list of ringtones under settings. I tried again with a different ringtone from iTunes directly using my phone and when it asked, I said I wanted to make it the default for a specific contact and it downloaded, but again it's not showing up anywhere and it didn't become the default ringtone for that contact. I can't find the ringtones in the settings and I can't find it under iPod. When I tried to purchase the first one again, it said I had already purchased it, so obviously the stupid thing downloaded somewhere, but I don't know where. Can anyone help?

    Well...looks like you're gonna have to contact itunes support, explain what happened and see if they will let you re-download them again at no cost. You'll get an answer within 24 hours:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/
    Also, just to make sure, check in iTunes on your computer, Store>Check for available downloads...see if they show up there.
