Rinbgtones Wont Play

[Guest nevawlkalone]

Hi all,

For some unkonwn reason, (cant remember why now) i installed beta player on my c550. After a few peopl phoned me in noticed that my ringtone wasnt playing, all i was getting was some miserable sounding intermitent "donk" sound.

When i went to test the files using media player they wouldnt play but would in beta....So i reset the file associaton and uninstalled beta and they refuse to play!

I was contemplating yet another hard reset but cant be bothered putting all my software back on...

Can anyone offer any insight into this problem? Im sure ive seen a thread relating to this topic before so a link to that would be handy if possible.

Cheers

M

Just checking - did you set the file association for MP3s to be Windows Media Player ?

That usually clears the problem (after a restart) for most people

Have you got your sounds in your default folder or have you moved this using regtweaks or something similar..?

[Guest nevawlkalone]

All the sounds are in the default folder, and the assosiation is set as far as i know.

Media Player keeps showing an error saying the "file is corrupt or not read"!

But they would play in Beta :?:

[Guest nevawlkalone]

Also, the files are not corrupt as i have just checked them on my pc and they work fine!

It could be due to mp3 file 'mis'-association. Kindly try this cab file:

It will re-associate MP3 files back to WMPlayer.

if you have pocket music installed on a c550 that kills the mp3 in both ringtones and wmp10 even uninstalling it does not help ;)
