It seems if the music player can't find/play it, it can't be selected as a ringtone.

Also didn't have any joy with a custom alarm tone in it's own dir.

Max.

You may have to format your card to get the folders to work correctly. I don't know why, but some people can't simply add those notifications, alarms, ringtones folders to the root of the SD card -- sometimes they have to format the card and then add those folders to the root directory.

The added bonus is that anything added to those folders (ringtones, alarms, notifications) cannot be seen by the default music player -- so you don't have to worry about alarms showing up in your library.
