E63 Has lost it's alarm tones

For the life of me I cannot understand why (but have a toddler @ 28 months though)...
My alarm tone has reset to Chat alert.aac (from click.aac) and the option only offers:
Download sounds
Default tone
Off
I have tried 3 times to Restore form computer (Win7/PC Suite) and each time it nears the end then has a serious error and cannot complete! any ideas?

Now an E7 casualty remembering the 8 replacement Nokia Orange (or was that Lemon?) 2140's I had in 1996...
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I think I have hit on the solution (rather a workaround). The problem is likely to occur if you have too many mp3s on your memory card. I had almost 12GB of mp3s on my memory card. When I choose to change the rigtone I used to get only 2 options ... Download or OFF.
Solution: Remove the memory card and try again. It should work ... worked for me.
Looks like the system has a pre-defined time duration to populate the list failing which nothing is listed. Given the number of mp3s I had the list was too big and the timeout probably kicked in. Bug in the software. Pity it manifests in the wierd way ... It could have at least shown the default tones and failed to update the list from the card.

  • E63 has lost all my contacts!

    As the title says, my Nokia E63 has suddenly lost all my contacts. The phone is only a couple of months old and is on the 3 network.
    How do I get all my contacts back? This really should not be happening to a brand new phone. 
    Thanks for any replies. 

    Hi 1992LP
    As you mentioned, "This really should not be happening to a brand new phone".
    any phone doesn't have the option to "autodelete" any private things from the phone " except internet cokies", and also not any program.  The only thing i'm thinking about what happened is
    1) you "by mistake" deleted them all
    2) you tried one of the coods that do reset for the phone without backing up the contacts , messages , calender
    3) you installed a program that controlls contacts
    4) you gave the phone to someone you trust then he/she deleted them
    5) you copied them to the SIM card and deleted them from the phone
    The only thing to get contacts back if you are sure that they are completely deleted from the phone is to restore them either from restore a previous backup you have made on the PC using Nokia PC suite or OVI suite, or to recopy them back from the sim
    I hope that helped you, please check them up and let me know
    Phones I bought from 1st till now:
    3210 / 3310 / 3410 / 6310 / 6600 / 6020 / N72 / E51 / X2-00 / 5310 xpress Music / E90 Communicator

  • LOST Default Alert/Ringing/Alarm Tones in Z3 Compact after update in Android 5.1.1

    LOST Default Alert/Ringing/Alarm Tones in Z3 Compact after update in Android 5.1.1
    I discovered it when I tried to change my Alert Tone, I can no longer find the list of available Alert Tones. When I click on Settings --> Sound & notification --> Notification Sound --> File Commander app --> Music
    The Xperia Tones are not there only the App Tones and other sound/music.
    I tried changing my Notification Sound in Safe Mode (Hold power off then reboot to safe mode) still the default sounds are not there (I did this to disable installed apps that might be the reason why I cannot see it)
    Anyway, this is not a critical issue I just want to know if I'm the only one experience thia after the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update. I also want Xperia Team to notice/check this issue.
    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Tones may have changed from what you were use to in previous versions (Just checked and they are different) However if you prefer the old ones then XDA has them here (Click on the Blue Download now not the Orange Download bar)

    Hey Amiee_19,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like your Ring/Silent switch may be toggled:
    Ring/Silent switch - iPhone
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph3bd01398
    Ring/Silent switch
    Flip the Ring/Silent switch to put iPhone in ring mode or silent mode .
    In ring mode, iPhone plays all sounds. In silent mode, iPhone doesn’t ring or play alerts and other sound effects.
    Important: Clock alarms, audio apps such as Music, and many games play sounds through the built-in speaker, even when iPhone is in silent mode. In some areas, the sound effects for Camera and Voice Memos are played, even if the Ring/Silent switch is set to silent.
    For information about changing sound and vibration settings, see Sounds and silence.
    Use Do Not Disturb. You can also silence calls, alerts, and notifications using Do Not Disturb. Swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen to open Control Center, then tap the Do Not Disturb button . See Do Not Disturb.
    If the above does not resolve your issue, see this article:
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker

  • CME User/Extension Has Lost Dial Tone

    I have an extension that has lost dial-tone.  This phone has been in service for over two years and has been working properly until now.  Other buttons configured on the same phone work fine and the user can dial out, but not if using his extension.  I have tried the following with no success:
    -Checked the speakerphone and cabling
    -Tried dialing out using the same extension on another phone (no dial-tone for the same extension on the other phones)
    -Resetting the phone to factory defaults
    -Removing the phone and configuring a brand new phone
    Incoming calls to the extension work fine and everything looks correct on the display.  The environment is Cisco CME 7 and the phone in question is a 7962.

    Hi,
    You have a user/extension which has lost Dial tone i.e of IP phone 7962.It may be because of the following factors :
    1.You are not connected to Extension mobility services.
    2.the system requires a Client matter code (CMC) or Forced authorization code(FAC) after dialing a number.(SCCP phones only).
    3.Change the time-of-day restrictions that prevent you from using some features during certain hours of the day.

  • E63 Alarm tone without Call tone

    I don't know if this is elswhere in the forum, but I couldn't find anything and had to work it out for myself.
    If you set the Profile to the default Silent, the phone doesn't ring of course, but unlike my previous phone neither does the Alarm. There is no setting in Personalise to set the Alarm Tone, and Nokia's Help files are pretty useless.
    So if you want to be woken by the Alarm but not by any calls do the following:
    - record a few seconds of silence on the mike and save it (eg to "Silence")
    - use Tools>Profiles>Silent>Personalise>Ringing_tone and set it to your new recording (eg "Silence")
    - set  Tools>Profiles>Silent>Personalise>Ringing_type to Ascending (or probably anything except Silent)
    - set  Tools>Profiles>Silent>Personalise>Ringing_volume to anything above zero ( which is one "blob")
    (- leave all the other settings as defaults)
    Phone calls will ring with "Silence" - so you don't hear them, but the Alarm will use it's normal tone.
    Hope this is useful to someone.

  • N82 Only default alarm tone

    I'm having the strangest problem: i can't change my alarm tone. I have a microSD card inserted, it has mp3s on it, the phone recognizes each and every one of them, i use some of them as ringtones etc. So everything seems to be working.
    However, when i want to change the alarm tone, i have only 3 options: default; download new; off. I've tried creating a new alarm, editing my current, changing the tone in Personalise-> Tones (same options). Nothing worked.
    Please, help me.

  • Alarm Tone Loop Delay

    The other day, I made a custom ringtone loop and loaded it onto my iPhone. In iTunes, the loop sounded perfect; when I tried the tone as a ringtone, it also worked perfectly. However, when I try to use the same tone as an alarm tone, there is a short pause before the loop, which causes the tone to not loop seamlessly. Is there a reason for this, and is there any way I can fix it, such as editing the tone file?
    I tried searching for this on the web, and I kept getting results either for online custom tone makers or the old iTunes ringtone maker.

    Hi,
    same problem here in the UK. Got the iPhone 4 in June...British Summer Time - BST - ended on Saturday night...our iPhones failed to wake us up this morning because although they had automatically updated to the correct time, the repeating alarms continued to think it was an hour later...
    I wonder how much money companies will have lost this morning due to iPhone users turning up late for work! ;-/
    I have called the UK iPhone support today (0844 209 0611), which costs £0.05 per minute if you are beyond the free 90-day support allowance...and they suggested resetting everything in settings! Or maybe doing a 'restore'. If you're reading this, please call the support line because when I rang they said they had not had any calls about the problem. So the more people who lodge a complaint, the more likely it is that Apple will do something to help us. Have you see forums elsewhere on the internet? It seems this is quite a problem for a lot of people.
    Obviously this is not the end of the world but it is a slightly irritating bug

  • Calendar alarm tone 6230i

    Hi, I'm sorry if this subject has been covered elsewhere; I did check and couldn't find a direct reference.
    Question is: On a 6230i (an excellent 'phone) how do you change the calendar alarm tone. The default setting is very melodic but is 1. not loud enough and 2. not "aggressive" enough to always get my attention when in an environment that is a it noisy (driving for example). Any help would be much appreciated.

    Well? How is it done, anyone?

  • 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?
    Message Edited by alexeiw123 on 22-Nov-2009 09:11 PM

    i am getting something similar.
    Loading.....
    then memory issue can only display a few or something like that.... then just closes back to main menu.
    Also still have loads of other files in my c: and not getting much love in these forums other then reset phone. must be another way...must be...

  • Alarm tones on Motorola Droid Razr

    I have the new update and love it. I have not had any problems with it. I just need help setting my alarm tones, after the update it changed the tones I could choose. I like the one I had, but I dont know how to change it. Very alarming was the alarm tone name.   I go to alarm and timers, choose alarms, open my alarm, choose sound, it brings up a limited list. I want to know how to access the full list. If anyone could help me with this matter I would be very happy. Regular alarms do not wake me and right now I am relying on my old Samsung charge to wake me up. Very alarming is a nice tone for me.  Thanks in advance

  • N8 hold button and alarm tone

    After purchasing the N8 (and being generally very happy with it) I have had at least 10 incidences where I have been talking to a client, and as I hold the phone relatively close to my cheek, this has activated the "Hold"-button on the screen, muting the conversation. This button should be smaller and be placed further down on the screen, or there should be an option to delete it completely - I never use this function, and I am sure many others don't use it. The second issue is the clock alarm - this will only make the phone vibrate, there is no sound in any setting (general, silent, meeting etc.) Is there a fix for this?

    That's strange...Mine always vibrated and had sound in alarms. The phone even has the option to chose which sound you want to use as alarm
    Go to settings->Phone->Time and date->Clock alarm tone
    And mine used to function in General and silent profiles (never used the other ones)
    Hope this helps

  • Adobe cloud has lost connection with the server

    Adobe cloud has lost connection with the server, can't get adobe cloud to work so I can re-install photoshop to fix a corrupted DLL file.

    *Adding new items/removing orphans*
    Try iTunes Folder Watch or iTunes Library Updater. Folder Watch is much faster on the adding files front, can be set to run in the background and includes a useful exclusion feature, however it’s slow at removing orphans. iTLU is better for this although doing it manually after looking at a list of proposed removals generated by Folder Watch is probably faster still. iTLU can also be set to update iTunes when you've used 3rd party tools to change tag info.
    You may need to amend the list of file types these programs look for. My list includes:
    .mp3 .mp4 .m4a .m4b .m4p .m4v .mov .wav .aif .mid .ipa .ipg .ite .itlp .m4r .pdf
    Note the last 6 types may not be recognised as already being in the library so should either be omitted from the search or you can add (at least for Folder Watch) individual exclusions for files you know are already in your library.
