How to install Java for the Ringtone Maker when using Firefox
The patent pending ToneBee Ringtone Maker requires Java to run. Some computers don't have the necessary programs to run Java.
You can tell if you don't have Java installed if, when clicking on our Ringtone Maker link, the Rintone Maker looks like the following:
Additionally, you may also see a yellow bar on the top of your browser like the following:
If you see either of the above on your screen, you need to download and install Java on your computer before you can run the
ToneBee Ringtone Maker. Follow the steps below to download and install Java from Sun Microsystems.
-
Click on the green puzzle piece image within the Ringtone Maker (with the text "Click here to download plugin" below it).
This will open a popup window as in the image below. Make sure "Java Runtime Environment" is ticked and click on the "Next"
button. This will open a smaller popup window and start the download and installation of Java from the Sun website.
-
View the License Agreement from Sun and once you're satisfied with it, press "Accept" in the next screen. Following this
the install process will start.
Note, if you do not agree with the Sun License Agreement and wish to click on Decline instead, then Java installation
will be aborted. This also means you cannot run the Ringtone Maker on your computer, as it will not run without Java.
-
The whole process should take a few minutes, so please be patient and wait till it completes.
-
When installation is complete, you'll see a screen as in the image below. Click "Finish" which will close this popup window.
-
Click on the "Finish" button on the first popup screen as in the image below. This will close this popup window.
You now have Java on your computer and are ready to run the Ringtone Maker and start creating your own ringtones.

The ToneBee Ringtone Maker page should now reload automatically. If this does not happen, you may need to refresh the
ToneBee ringtone maker page by clicking refresh on your browser or by clicking the Ringtone Maker button again to reload.
This time, once you accept the certificate prompt (as explained in the
"
How to create ringtones with the ToneBee Ringtone Maker" help page), you will see a progress bar with the Java logo,
indicating Java is loading.

Upon fully loading the Ringtone Maker should look like in the image below:
