Song as Ringtone

Hello!

I'm having trouble setting a song as my ringtone. Not so simply, it's a single file I can't get my phone to recognize for ringtones. It'll recognize every other mp3 I put on it and show as an option when setting a ringtone, but not this ONE file. It even shows up in the Play Music app, but not as a ringtone.

I've tried changing the file until it exactly matched another file I'm able to set as a ringtone (length, bit rate, number of channels, audio sample rate, even the file name), thinking perhaps it was a formatting issue. No luck.

I've tried putting it in a variety of different directories to no avail, either.

I would love any help anyone could give me, it's really starting to bug me.

Thanks!

 

I appreciate how quickly I got a response!

Unfortunate, I have tried it in SD card/Ringtones and SD card/media/audio/notifications/Ringtones and rebooting it after moving the file. =/

For reference, every other mp3 and wav I use as a custom ringtone is in the Music folder and I can set it with no trouble. It's just this ONE file, which is why it's driving me so mad.

 

Unfortunately, that didn't accomplish it, either.

Fortunately, I found a work around while I was moving the file around on my phone rather than via PC. I found an option to set the file as the ringtone directly without going through the settings menu. Still doesn't show up in the settings menu, but, I tested it and it plays the file when I set it that way.
