Hi

I would like to add songs to have a different notification for text messages to phone calls. I have seen from Tips where I need to put them but when I connect my phone to the computer I can't see a folder "sdcard". I can see various folders within the phone, eg photos but not this one.

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Margot

sdcard is your sd card (root of it) i mean that is a place where you should start and don't look for sdcard folder.
so connect your device to computer use as data drive then look for folders media and then go to audio/ringtones where you put your chosen ringtones
good luck :)

in DCIM folder you should have 100MEDIA folder and not media if you have media folder there check what's in it as it might me the one with audio and then notifications
if not then you can easily create one yourself in root of sd card make new folder of media
then inside create
audio folder and then notifications and there put your ringtones ok?
