Hello all. Just bought my first iPhone on 3G launch day. Awesome phone, but after a few days I really started to get sick of the somewhat awful sounds it made while ringing. I decided to have a sit down and make a nice ringtone for myself. Found the song I wanted, realized it wasn't 'ringtone' compatible, then found a version of the exact same song on the iTunes store that was, bought it for .99 then the ringtone for .99.
To be honest that in and of itself is quite a pain in the ass.
Aside from the issue of having to pay that much for 1 ringtone when I already owned the song to begin with, the stupid thing won't play on the iPhone now. It shows up in the list, hit it and nothing happens. Assign it as the default, no noise just vibration.
All the other ringtones play just not the one that I legitimately made on iTunes. Any ideas as to why or help is appreciated.
(By the way my girlfriend has the phone and has made ringtones before so I am pretty sure I am not being a complete moron as she had checked over what I did.)
