Hey Steve - thanks for the suggestions - I will try this out later, and let you know what my success is on it.

Music, Videos, Ringtones and Pictures. I used Windows Explorer and simply copied the ringtone I had for my Treo (24 Telephone Ring) and pasted into a folder I named ringtones on the card. I also copied and pasted 100 or so pictures I had to the Pictures folder.
I then slapped the card into the BB, opened Media, opened Ring Tones, All Ring Tones and scrolled to mine. Tested that it played and pressed the Menu key and selected "set as phone tune".
It actually went faster than it sounds!!!
It could be that your MP3 did not get placed into the Music folder and that might be why you can't see it. I am not sure.
I do know you can also transfer to the card in the device while connected via the USB cable, but a setting has to be set to Mass Storage On and Enabled. That is from the Icon menu > Options > Media Card > check to be sure that support is on and that Auto Enable Mass Storage is also enabled. I believe that might be through BB Manager, but I haven't really used that as all our information is set to wireless sync through a corporate BES server.
Let us know if any of this helps and I will troll around for better explained solutions and alternatives.
