    On mine, in the Settings interface with the panel under the label "Message
    alert tone:" highlighted, I can press the big square button and then
    select 'ringing tone - Open Gallery - Tones - Alert Tones' and have eleven
    to choose from - or I could select 'Tone Downloads' instead of 'Open
    Gallery' or 'Memory Card' instead of 'Tones' if I thought I'd find what I
    wanted that way. When the name of your choice is is displayed in the
    'Message alert tone' panel, scroll down and select 'Save'.

    Most nokia's have it under Menu > Settings > Tones > Message Alert
    Tone
    The message alert tone option is not beneath the call alert tone; its
    a few options down...

    There is definitly an option to change the message alert tone. Its on
    Menu, Settings, Tones

    On that menu there will be in order: Incoming call alert, Ringing
    tone, Volume, Incoming call video, Vibrate, 3 PTT Options and then
    Message alert tone which by default is set on "standard"

    Select 'Tones' and you get lots of tone settings to play with. 'Message
    alert tone' is well down the list.

    I think that's configurable. Try pressing 'Options' from the main menu
    screen; I get two options when I do that - 'Main menu view' and
    'Organise'. The first of those offers four alternative 'views' of which
    'List' is the ... ummm ... list ... .

    message alert tone on nokia6300

    How can I change the message alet tone on my Nokia 6300?
    I have looked in the manual and there doesn't seem to be anything there
    for changing the alert tone. I have also been to menu/settings/tones and
    al I can get is the ringing alert tone, I don't see how I can change to
    message alert tone.

    Anybody?

    Thanks

    Yes I guess they do, but on mine its menu/settings/tones then all I have
    is 'Incoming call alert' with no option to change that to message alert.
    I can change the ringtone from there, but thats all.

    Thanks anyway

    On mine from Settings I don't have 'Message Alert Tone'
    I have Profiles, Themes, Tones, Display, Time and Date, My Shortcuts,
    Connectivity, Call, Phone, Enhancements, Configuration, Security, and
    restore factory settings.

    I have just(yesterday) downloaded and installed the latest software, so
    I have a different screen now from Menu> Instead of a list I get icons.

    Thanks

    Got it now, thanks.
    I didn't scroll down far enough when in Tone Settings!
