How To convert MP3 to .midi
Hope this helps:
-Get any mp3 song.
-open with iTunes.
-click on "Edit"
-go to "Preferences"
-select the "Importing" tab
-under "Import Using:", select "MP3 Encoder"
-under "Setting" go to "Custom"
Now I usually select a 64kbps stereo bit rate (and leave the rest the same),
but you can experiment here with the sound quality etc.
-hit "OK", then "OK"
-now right-click the song that you want in iTunes
and select "Get Info"
-Go to the "Options" tab
-Now at the bottom it has the Start and Stop times
This is where you select the portion of the song that you want.
I think the max ringtone is like 30 seconds. make sure to check both boxes.
(Sometimes I increase the volume adjustment as well to make it louder)
-click Ok
-R...

I'm kinda new at this. I followed your instructions and emailed it to my cell #. I was then directed to the vzwpix.com website and the midi shows up in the inbox there.
How do I then get this file into my phone to save it as a ringtone?

That means your phone has not been set up to recieve pictures yet...sounds dumb its not it happened to me with two new phones on two seperate occasions. Bring it in and ask a tech to help. You could also try calling 611 and having a tech step you through some adjustments.
...
I have the cdm 9000 and have been doing this since I had the phone, which by the way is the best phone I ever had - too bad it was only on sale for a few weeks. I think you can do this with the cdm-8940, go to Howard Forums, they have the instructions on how to do it.
...
I can't seem to make it work .. I receive the E-mail but it says the audio type is not recognize or supported. I do it exactly the way you say.
...
Actually, in my experience, it has worked to change the ".mp3" extension to ".mid", not ".midi".
...
i did it with the .mid and it worked but now the song is stuck in the text message. how do i get the song out so that i can use it as a ringtone?
...
never mind, i figured it out. you need to go to options then save sound (i think) then put a filename and it becomes a tone. This is really cool!
...
I was able to successfully follow all of the instructions, but when I mailed it to phone#@vzwpix.com...I received an error message back:
"Content Type not allowed::ContentType audio/mp3 is not supported"
Any ideas? I'm trying this on a 610...that's probably the problem. Just not sure.
(Can't order my 8000 yet, stupid employee accounts)

YO DAFLYPSYDE UNDRESTOOD ALL THE DIRECTIONS EXCEPT THE BOTTOM START STOP CHECK BOTH BOXES HOW DO I JUST CHANGE A 30 SEC PORTION TRIED IT 50 TIMES UUGGHHHHHHHH PLEASE HELP
...
i followed all the steps but when i used my cox account to mail it to my phone i got the message...unsupported content type. anyone have any suggestions.
...
i have made it a .mid and still have no luck. I have followed each step exactly.
...
this is how it's done In itune go to the edit tab, then preferences then the importing tab. import using: leave as MP3 encoding. setting: choice custom, on stereo bit rate choice 64kbps.. sample rate 44KHz.leave every thing the same. the song can not exceed 40 seconds.at the end you can type .MIDI or .MID it doesn't matter. but you still have to follow the direction from above. injoy the new songs on your phone.ALL YOU GUYS ARE COOL 😎 😎
...
IF any one need help I'll be back on the forum on Sunday. Because I'm going to las vages tonight. 👿
...

If you are getting an error, then your problem most likely IS in converting it. I doubt you did it correctly.
Check again all the conversion steps and make sure you have done each one properly. What program did you use for modifying the file?
...
i got it to work woo hoo. i had it set to play with winamp but it doesnt play .mid file but when i switched to windows media player it worked. thanks for the help guys.
...
Also one problem I experienced was that by using AOL, I couldnt send myself any .MID's
If you go to yahoo, open a free account and than use there server to send yourself ringtones...it should work.
