Transfer songs to mobile using MAC OS X

[Louis.]

Has anyone got any advice on software to use if I want to tranfer a song from my Mac to my mobile phone so I can then use it as a ringtone ? I have tried with Itunes but am having no luck. It just says the file is unsupported ?!!


Cheers,

Louis

The mobile is a samsung SGH-X820...

Bluetooth?

Does the X820 support AAC or only MP3's?
If both, but the song "unsupported" is AAC, then it may be down to the DRM.
Any AAC's from a CD you imported should be fine then.

I did it straight to the memory card in a reader. Made sure it went into the correct folder.

The only wy I can transfer the files is by bluetooth. However it is quite strange as when I transfer an MP3 song to the correct folder and then play the song it just comes out as a loud "1 tone" noise ! Now the confusing thing is that when I play an mp3 song file that I have had sent to me by another phone, it works perfectly ??

I use iTuneMyWalkman on mine from www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/27888

It's great

Magic, when I tried to install the folder action it could not find a file directory/folder suitable.

Are you connecting the phone via Bluetooth? Think it only works if you can connect the phone via a usb cable.

Magic,

Yes I am connecting the phone via bluetooth. IT is my only option. I don't think that they (Samsung) provide a USB cable to connect the phone to the MAC. I will have a look for some accessories but I cn't remeber ever seeing a USB cable for the Samsung SGH-X820.
