Do a search for an mp3 wav converter: several will come up. Try one or two and use the one you like best. An mp3 file is a sound file in compressed form. Some applications require a wav file for sounds, particularly for ring tones etc. These are uncompressed and so are quicker to access. You'd get better quality if you tried to get your mp3 tracks in wav format or convert them directly from a cd to wav.

No idea.. can't you just disable mail alerts in preferences?

you might be able to change some settings. go to your email and click on "options" in the top right.

You need to give more information, i.e. what email client are you using?  (Lookout express, Eudora, Web-based Yahoo, etc.)\n\nBut likely you client is broken, reboot your computer and if that doesn't work, reinstall you email program!

try messing with the controls under sound properties in control panel ..

The problem is in the messenger, first check the preferences and then alerts and sounds, check mark the appropriate alerts.\nMore, you can resinstall the messenger to enable the disabled features.\n\nhttp://360.yahoo.com/jcbroogley

You might have another program using your sound card.\nwhat u may want to do is this.\nreboot computer and then open up the messenger program. \nthis usually works.

You can set up two types of alerts.\n\n1.  If you use Yahoo! Messenger, you can set it up to notify you when you get Yahoo! Mail.  Within Messenger do the following:\n         a. Go to Messenger --> Preferences menu option\n         b. Choose "Alerts & Sounds" on the left\n         c. Check "Enable alert sounds"\n         d. Highlight "I receive a message in Yahoo! Mail"\n         e. Choose if you want sound, pop-up box, etc.\n\n2.  You can also receive an alert on your Mobile Device when you receive Yahoo! Mail.  You do this using Filters.  Here are the steps for that:\n         a.  Log into Yahoo! Mail\n         b.  Choose "Options" link (upper right hand side)\n         c.  Select "Filters"\n         d.  Click the "Add" button\n         e.  Enter a name for your filter\n         f.  Enter any rules (you can choose all mail addressed to your e-mail address, or from only certain people, or with specific subjects)\n         g.  Be sure to check the "Send an alert to my Mobile Device" box and it will walk you through that information.

i dont think so...first check your internet connection then look over that everything is right.....and now respond the mail...or move your mails ...if the problem still occurs better reinstall everything

I have the same problem so I created another email, when one doesn't work the otherone usually does.  When it doesn't I get a message to change my settings but nothing helps.

I think you might have signed in Yahoo Messenger.\n\nThere are two solutions.\n\n1) sign off from yahoo messenger then you will listen any sound upon receiveing a mail.\n2) In the yahoo messenger, go to preferences --> alerts & sounds, there in the list box u will find an email notifier \nclick on that that, uncheck the sound option window when you get an email.

you must have switched your default email settings, go into your tools and change them, good luck.

Start > Control Panel > Sounds and Audio Devices > Sounds > Sound Scheme: In the drop down window you have options of Windows Default or No Sounds, or you can go to Program Events: and change/uncheck the box for specific sounds, or get creative and change them to any sound scheme you care for.\nThe one that is annoying you is the "Windows XP Menu Command.wav"

just attach it to the email.. when you are in the compose message, click the "attach file" and browse for the file/mp3 and click "attach" then you are ready to go..
