Greetings all,

This one is hard to describe, and I've not yet ascertained a pattern 
presentable to Apple support.  A friend who also has a 4S running 5.01 worked 
with me on this and instead of isolating a pattern it only served to further 
confuse me.

I have a home grown ringtone successfully associated with a contact, however 
when I dropbox that m4r file to another party, that person hears my tone when 
associating it with a contact, however when a call is received, the default 
tone is emitted.

During our testing, there was a file which initially presented this problem on 
both of our phones.  In order to rule out all factors, I suggested that we try 
updating the contact while not actively on a call.  When doing this, the file 
worked correctly on my friend's phone, but not on mine.  She then associated my 
contact with a different ringtone, and upon calling her back she heard the 
previous ringtone (one that continues not to function properly on my phone).

I doubt dropBox is corrupting these files, because they are playing in iTunes, 
and in the ringtone selection dialog. More over, this is observable on several  
files.  I verified that there is nothing in the app switcher because I've seen 
random weirdness disappear in the past by clearing it.

My questions now are whether anyone can suggest trouble shooting steps that 
would help isolate the problem.  Since this is reproducible on two phones, I 
assume others could observe my results.  Since the results do not appear to be 
consistent from one phone to another of the same model running identical 
versions of IOS5, the trigger is obviously eluding me so far.

TIA for any suggestions and best regards.
Geoff
