Hello guys
here it goes
I transfered two songs to my card through wireless and opened the music player to listen to them(music player called 3) but the player didn't see them (like always) so I went to the widget and pressed update media ,it gave the message reloading media ,but too shortly it said reload media complete ,so I opened the player again but it gave the message : the song you are looking for is not in the playlist reload media or reinstall app.
Then I went to player that came with the phone but the library was empty ,then I checked the albume and the video and they were empty too ,and all the media apps I installed couldn't see any media ,but the explorer I have does see all the files I have ,i tried unmounting the card and restarting the phone but still the same trouble.
My x10mini is not rooted or anything.
So please please help

Hey guys I need some help. None of my music players (mediascape, stock android music player, or winamp) doesn't display the updated list of songs. After I've deleted some old songs and put in new ones, it still displays the old songs.
what method are you using to put music on your phone? usually after the sd card is remounted the phone will know to rescan for music. i could be wrong here but i think most players use the same service for record keeping on music. so thats why nothing updates. if you restart your phone it should rescan. alternatively you could look up "rescan media" on the market as there are a few apps there to force a rescan.
i did a search and several other people are facing the same issue and is mainly the android OS that has this bug. it seems that it is still a bug that hasn't been addressed yet by Google according to the software developer who made Meridian. it has something to do with MediaScannerService. under settings, applications, manage applications, MediaScannerService comes up as restarting. no matter what i do whether i take out the battery, mount/unmount the sd card, it still shows up as restarting. and it stays like that indefinitely.
you're right, i found out that all the apps share the same filesystem update function and that's why the apps don't have their own individual 'update library' function. apparently a full reflash and sd card format will fix it... ughh... (>_<)
Mine worst. My mediascape cant even scan any songs. I use other player, PowerAmp Player and it only can play songs from folders and can't load songs to library.
Hi Guys,
since yesterday my Xperia S (FW .73) is no longer listing any music (stored at /mnt/sdcard/Music...)
I tried several things to fix this:
- reboot several times
- rename music foder
- copy music from /Album sub folder into /Music folder
- rescan via "rescan media" app
- testing with third party music player apps like standard android music player or Meridian
...but without success!
Music player still says that there is no music available on my device.
But I do have about 9 GB!
The only may important thing I did yesterday was to change the micro SIM card.
Bit this works without any trouble.
So do you guys have any idea?
Should i reinstall generic .73 FW?
If you go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> All find the Media Storage App, clear Data, restart the phone and leave it ~5 minutes it should force it to rescan everything.
Hey sixdaysandy, thanks for you advice.
Unfortunately it has no impact!
I've done it several times and cleared almost every Music Media data I found. But after I made a reboot my device still thinks I do not have any music...
Therefore i am flashing the LT26i_6.0.A.3.73_SG_Generic.ftf FW without Wiping User Data right now!
And i really hope that this will fix the bug!
Edit:
Finally i was able to reproduce this strange behaviour.
I deleted every music and put it right back into the music folder. And there it was!
But it seems that every time i reboot - the device isn't any longer listing my music and it's gone again...
so there must be something wrong with the music library or the music player itself. Or maybe another app is going to kill the library?!
So i'm at a loss here...
I copied alot of music to my prime (internal storage, into sdcard/music/) when i first got it. Worked perfectly. I was using the stock Music player for a while then it got on my nerves and i installed PlayerPro which i also use on my mobile phone. Works great.
Now a few months later i got some new music and i copied it to my prime. The only thing:
The music is not showing up in any player. Not the google player not playerpro. I can play the files from my file manager but in the actual music app it wont show up.
I rebooted, reinstalled music apps, used a sd card rescan app, cleared cache on all involved apps, deleted the music and copied again, used iSyncr and manual copy... And it cant be the music itself because on my phone the same files work fine.
Dont know what more i could do now any ideas?
[e] Gets even stranger, if i copy it with MyPhoneExplorer over wifi, it works the music gets recognized by all players. Strange, but at least a workaround.
Btw is there a way to enable Harddrive mode? This medialayer mode kinda sucks^^
Hey guys
My S3, running Jellybam 6.3.0, works fine, but there is a little issue that I'm experiencing
and it's become pretty irksome.
I had 8gb of music on an iPod that I transferred to my PC, then to and SD card, which I now use for my GS3.
All of my past music appears in music players and play fine, but any new music that I download from the phone doesn't show up.
I thought maybe the music players weren't scanning for mp3 files in the download folder, so I decided to move them from the downloads folder
to my Music folder with all my other files.
Here's the problem:
The file manager doesn't seem to "see" for find any of the old music, despite all of the media players finding it no problem.
Also, any new music I download can be searched for an played in a music player, but it is never added to the library.
I decided to mount my phone to my PC do double check, and all of my music is there in the Music folder, which is on the root of my sd card.
Has anyone else had this issue

Did you try to wipe data and install everything again??
Might be a DRM issue?
For some reason my S3 no longer plays any of my music. It can detect the files just fine, even the ones I ripped directly from CDs in windows, but when I load up my music player and hit the play button it appears to just scan all the files in the open folder ,as in I can literally see the song names get loaded one after another real fast... as if all my music was only 0.001 seconds long, so it sort of plays them but they're all that short and no sound comes out
anyway I've tried several players and its always the same. Any advice would be great, i'm on stock JB, never rooted.
Take one MP3 file place on sd card .
Open My Files navigate to this MP3 open it chose player .
Fails backup data and factory reset .
You dont have sound muted or turned down low

Posted on XDA answer to exact same question .
Had the same problem a week ago,
I went to application manager in settings,
And cleared the data and cache of media storage, then rebooted.
That seemed to fix the issue
