Hi,


I have not tried this where are message sounds stored?


Note the Audio File Types.

Note the two "libraries" for Alerts and Ringtones


Also Note the Messages reads the .plist of sounds for each list.

(Unlike iChat and early versions of Messages that read the files in the various Sound Folders).
