You did everything right, but I have the same problem sometimes with ringtones I uploaded by cable.
I think, I know the problem: some instruments can't be played by the telephon. Try to edit it with the Nokia Sound Converter which comes with the Nokia-Software. It's not easy to lern, but with time you can learn how to modify an midi.
Important is, that Instruments, which are shown in red are unplayable for your phone.
Hope I could help you.

im not to sure about this subject, when i downloaded midi tones off of the club nokia wap site with my acount they downloaded and worket but when i connect the phone to my pc via MobiMB all the midi files show my real one logo to play the files but the ones i downloaded via clubnokia by wap show as text files?? and i if i copy them to pc useing MobiMB they are still text files and cant be played like midi files. i find this quite wierd but im not botherd since i downloaded them before i got MobiMB but now i have it i dont use wap to download stuff to the phone.
i hope this clears a little bit of stuff up why it wont work.

The files are SP-MIDI (stands for scalable polyphonic) which are the same as normal MIDI files but have a header that gives priorities to different channels so they will play on soundcards that only have limited capabilities. There are a few utilities out there to convert them. The only free one I've found (I think it was free anyway) was 'MIDIscale'.

Hi Forum,
I'm having a similar problem - I have created ringtones using the Nokia PC-Suite and email them to my 6610 using GPRS but they aren't recognised as attachments so I can't save them. If I send a GIF or JPG it works fine though.I have experimented with various email attachment encoding options eg UUENCODE, MIME/ QUOTED PRINTABLE/ BASE64 with every combo of "allow or deny 8 bit headers" and I can get the phone to "see" the file ie it lists the file name of the midi file and I see loads of data presumably the midi controls themselves but still can't save it.
Does anyone have a definitive fix on how I can email midi to a nokia? It's become a real tech challenge now!  I was doing it to save the $150 dollars for the nokia data cable but I've almost spent that testing the damn thing!
Many thanks in advance for any help,
cheers,
fegg
