How to move wav files to memcard?

2 replies · 3,133 views · Started 12 March 2003

I have succesfully made ringtones in wav format. I send it to my gf's 3650 via IR from my laptop or P800. After doind this is it recieves it as a message. After click on that message you have an option to save it but only on the phone memory. After saving it it moves to the wav to a folder where you can only open them via the recorder, under menu>extras?recorder. On the recorder, you can open the wav, Afer opening the wav you can click the options button and you will have the option move to mecard, when I click this I get the error "Unable to move item *wavfilename*"

Any ideas? I placed around four tones and I keep on getting the message phone memory low already 😞

Well I got it already, you have to change it to use card memory. Then when you save the beamed file it will put it automatically in the card. After doing this for the first time I was able to move the wavs around back and forth from phone to card and card to phone.

I dont really know why but its working already and thats the bottom line 😊

It won't move them because there is no folder on the MMC for them - bit strange that the MMC comes formated but not correctly - format it via the phone itself and you'll see it creates the correct folders.

Or you can create them yourself.
Go into an application that is looking at the MMC - realone for example.
Create a new folder called 'Sounds' GO INTO that folder and create 2 more folders 'Digital' and 'Simple'

Go back to recorder and you should now be able to move your files accross.

Hope all that made sense 😊

Best
