Working for me, did you go into settings and make sure your account is linked? Also check Accounts under settings.

It ended up showing after a while.thanks

[Q] New Google Music 3.0.336

I just came across this just now. According to Droid Life, there is a new google music apk when the test market was accidently released. I was curious if anyone has gotten sync to work? Possibly using titanium to remove the HTC music app then installing the new google music apk? I'm currently tied up at work and school and unable to test this out.

Look over in the development forum. I posted a copy of the leaks. The music app works without uninstalling anything.
Thanks!

Under Accounts & sync, click Google. You should now have a 'Sync Music' option.
I tried this last night and never really got it to work properly. I have like 10 gigs of music on my phone and it continued to sync all night and through today. I finally chose to shut off the sync option and run with what's on my phone. Not like I'm running out of room with this monster sd card lol. I'll let them get it officially up and running first. I just clicked on the instructions link in the other thread. They're easy to follow, all seemed to go smooth. Dunno. Maybe it does work, and I should have chose to test with just a few songs instead.

Google Music w/o root

Here is an older version of Google Music that is not tied to the Play Store, and works on the Fire HD without root. You of course need the Google login service working. It doesn't work the first time because it wants you to add an account and then complains the account already exists. But if you close the app then open it back up, you can choose the account that already exists.
My playlists popped right up and now I can enjoy all that music I bought!
I don't have much music yet on the N7 but it would be nice to have it available on the kfhd as well seeing that audio playback on the latter is very very good. And I also have a bluetooth headset as well when necessary to not bother surrounding folks.
Thanks for the tip!
I had to come up with a non-root method of playing the music because I spent a lot of time uploading CDs on my father's Google account for my mother to listen to on my father's Nexus 7. I am planning on giving her a Fire HD for Christmas, and of course I want her to be able to listen to all the music I uploaded for her!
I don't think Amazon and Google are doing anyone any good by not cooperating on Google Play. This is just insane. All the apps I bought on Google Play should be available on every device, not just the sanctioned devices.
Most useful info and file

Not sure how to do that. I don't have any tools for repackaging apks. I guess I could build it from source...

Hi
I have Google login services installed and it shows up in my installed apps, I have installed Google music from both here and from the 1mobile market app but neither version ask for my Google ID at any point so all I see is the one album that is on the device.
Any pointers gratefully received.
This is a new UK kindle fire, currently not rooted.

What apps (htc, tmobile, etc) are safe to disable on phone?

would appreciate any advice on this by those who've started to experiment.

You can easily disable all of the "T-Mobile" apps: T-Mobile My Account, T-Mobile Name ID, T-Mobile TV
I've also disabled TalkBack, Rescue, Polaris Office, News & Weather, Lookout Security,Kid Mode, Hangouts, Google Play Music, Google Play Movies & TV, Google Play Magazines.
As far as the HTC applications, I haven't began to disable any of them yet...
Thanks for your post, I was able to disable some more apps

I did uninstall it. Those were just a list of apps that I disabled or uninstalled.

I don't see, "or uninstalled" anywhere here.
So whats wrong with Google Music?
Do semantics really matter? And does it really matter whether or not I said it in my original post or if I clarified in my next post that it was either disabled OR "uninstalled"? The point is these apps that I mentioned are no longer present blaring in my face whenever I access my phone.
What's wrong with Google Music? Nothing -- if you want to use it. Me, personally? Google Music is a subscription-based service and it is something that, to me, is not worth it's value monthly.

[Q] Instant Mixes removed from Play Music App?

I seem to be missing the Instant Mix on Google Play Music on my Nexus 7 as well as on my Nexus 4. Has Google changed anything here or am i doing something wrong. The Instant Mix Tab is gone and when clicking the 3 buttons next to a song the option is missing as well. On my Desktop i still have them though!
Any Ideas?

Same problem here. Also, if I browse settings with in the Play Music app, it's really really really basic. I seem to have lost all functionality in the app. I'm also missing all album artwork, but the website shows everything there. I tried clearing cache and app data but nothing works.

I'm also having this problem. I reinstalled the app and the Instant Mix and Shop buttons came back, but as soon as j pressed them, the app crashed. Upon reopening it, they were no longer there.
I'm also missing the Instant Mix, Shop, and all my album art. Happen a couple days ago.

I figured it out, Google broke Play Music in the latest 5.2 update. Revert back to 5.1 and it works perfectly fine.

oh crap, I came here looking for an answer on "how to get rid of Instant fricken mixes" on Android/PC ... PC is with a chrome extension that sometimes works/sometimes doesn't ... and I swear I've seen a "hide instant mixes" button in the google play app... but not anymore!
WTF google, nobody cares! cmonnnnn

[Q] [Help] Google Now won't launch music app

When I try to use Google Now voice to listen to music i.e. "Ok, Google, play ..." it tries to launch the music player but it just flashes on the screen then it goes back to Google Now or if I open Google Now from the music app it goes back to that but doesn't play the song.
If I tell it to play a song I don't have or mess up a title it opens the app's search with no results.
Anybody else have this issue?
Any fix?
Any troubleshooting/debugging tips?
I also tried Play Music but it gives me the instant mix error and I deleted the system app and reinstalled it as a user app so I can't remove the updates.
I have tried searching for this issue but it is hard to word specifically enough

I would first try going to application manager and pressing the button that is to the left of the home button and click reset app preferences.
Do you mean clearing the data for the music app? I did that and it didn't help.

That is not what it does. It removes what programs you open your galaxy with. Like it's supposed to popup saying what you want to open the file in.
But if you are having trouble, I would either no-wipe your phone with odin or full-wipe it with odin.
Note that this resets everything so make sure that you backup to your sd card before you do this.

Stupid question here, but do you have Google Play Music installed? That's the only app this works with... It works fine for me...
