don't make it complicated.

Download some songs to your phone. find them by going into the media player and scrolling through the list until you find the song you want to be your ringtone. Press the blackberry button and choose "Set as Ringtone"

If you want to set multiple ringtones for different things, go into profiles from the main icon screen. Edit your active profile and set ringtones in there. You should be able to browse and use any downloaded songs on your phone.

When adding a new contact, you should have an option to set a custom ringtone, and again you can browse through any song you have downloaded to your phone.

If you want to make your own ringtones out of songs you have, just do a google search for 'make your own ringtone' and you'll find sites that allow you to upload an MP3 then crop it down to a ringtone as you want it, then you can download the smaller MP3 back to your phone and set it as your ringtone.

FYI, purchased ringtones don't work on blackberries because you can make your own, unlike the older phones where it was a proprietary format. Blackberry doesn't use the proprietary format so those ringtones don't work on BB's. Really, it's a good thing. You can make any MP3 you want into a ringtone, so why buy? (I have a clip of "Blinded by the Light" as my main ringtone, and many unique ringtones for contacts set up. Some of them are even clips of dialogue from movies or shows.
