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
Just got my tab and am loving it, but having big problems getting mp3s onto the Tab. My music library is stored through MediaMonkey, and I've never had any problems using MM to sync my music and playlists to various devices.
When I try to sync to the SGT, I get weird results. Sometimes not all the files and playlists are copied over; sometimes MM just hangs forever on "Synchronizing" after copying all of the files; sometimes the files make it to the Tab, but the Music player won't recognize the artists or albums. I don't know what the problem is. Does anyone have any experience with this problem and/or a solution?
I've cleared all the caches and data for all of the media-related apps, restarted, still no solid results.
Thanks everyone for the help!
I use winamp which syncs wirelessly but does hang now and then but that could be my hardware. Havent tried connectimng it via usb.
I used Kies to sync some of my playlists to my GT, worked great over wifi. But I also uploaded most of music collection to Google Music and Amazon Cloud Player, so I really have access to it anywhere I have internet on my cell phone. Just sync'd my top rated playlist from iTunes to GT to save space.
Hi,
I find this unusual problem when transferring mp3 files to my phone. I use the Kies software on my PC to sync with my music folder. When it finish sync with the phone, it shows a complete transfer without problems, but when I open the music player my mp3s don't show up. After playing with the phone for a while, I found the mp3s to be in a folder called media. I have to transfer those mp3s to the music folder under Samsung in order for the mp3 to show up in the music player.
Why doesn't the transferred mp3 files go straight to that music folder under Samsung and instead I have to manually transfer it from the media folder on the phone? Am I doing something wrong?
Thank you
Bump to the top!

Well my suggestion is use Mediamonkey for transferring or managing music. In Mediamonkey you can configure the path where the files have to be uploaded, the order of uploading (artist>album>title) , file formats supported by the device and much more ! I have uploaded my music(FLACs) with Mediamonkey on SGS2 and all the music shows up correctly(along with track order) in the stock music player. Try it

Thank you for your help, I will give Mediamonkey a try.
It's so just weird using Samsung software on a Samsung phone doesn't work correctly.
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?!
I open up the music app on the phone (Music or Nokia Music) and it shows over 15,000 songs (long story of stupidity). None of the songs are on the phone though. If I try to play something, it'll hang for several minutes, play something for about 15s and then hang for several minutes again. I think it has something in cache that it tries to play.
How do I get the song list to force update? I can manually delete them from the phone but I I only live once and won't have that much time. The Windows Phone 8 app 'can see' the songs but then errors when trying to delete saying it can't find it. It doesn't have a select all anyway. WMP doesn't see any songs on it. Rebooting the phone doesn't force it to scan either.
Any ideas?

I personally would put all of your music in one easy to mange music folder, get rid of duplicate entries, and make sure you delete all the songs you have on your device through windows explorer. Then, copy and paste the music folder to your device. You will be able to select all or pick and choose copying music this way. It would be the same way you copy music to a thumb drive if that clarifys it for you.
There is no music

There is no music on the device at all. Due to the Itunes / WMP folder structuring hanging the transfers (I just use windows explorer normally). There was no folder structure. Only one folder with 32,000 songs. I then copied about 5600 to the device. THAT turned out to be too much as the device didn't like only having 500k of space left. So I deleted the folder, and tried something smaller.
This went on for a few times only to find out that the songs were not getting removed from the library when the files were removed from the device.
Personally i think wp has a problem with files and music.
i struggled a lot getting the device showing everything that was in the windows8 app.
had duplicate entries of self copied tracks, had problems with album arts,. albums sometimes have just a few songs.
deleting device in xbox.com and unsync didnt help much.
somehow the music i copied on the phone on some day just didnt show up in fthe explorer anymore. so does the hidden album folder.
at the end i tried a hard reset and bricked the phone... didnt do anything appart form playing around with the music folder and app.

I miss the Zune days as well, I hate that I can no longer use it to sync all my content. I really hope they change this in the future, because the Windows Phone App is terrible and doesn't work half the time.
That being said, all the songs you see on your phone aren't actually on your phone. It is pulling them from your Zune account and what is now called your Xbox Music Cloud Connection.
Open up an artist and take a look at the track list - you'll notice a small icon indicating it isn't local. (Attachment 1)
It is streaming it from their servers, this is why it takes long to load, then buffers.
If you wish to disable the device from automatically showing all of these songs, in the Music + Videos app, go into settings (Attachment 2) and disable Xbox Music Cloud Collection. (Attachment 3)
That was it, mostly

That was it. I didn't notice the hidden folders. After removing the contents from them, there were only about 100 songs left in the list which I could then manage via the application to delete.
Fresh music list, starting over.
Thank you
be carefull with this things. bricked my phone with it.. deleted the album folder to get the list new..
also got problems with the cable staying connected and refreshing the data in the folders.
just got everything showing in win8 and phone now.. despite the album covers
Also if you have Windows 8 ... music is uploaded to the cloud and can be streamed to the phone... it isn't perfect, but I have several albums that have just showed up... I think part of that has to do with where it was purchased.
does it update any mp3 you add into the music app?

Yeah it updates everything but the 'collection' tile inside of nokia music. That still had thousands.
I reloaded all the music and it seemed to have got lost again. It seems to work fine until you pass around 2000 songs and then duplicates start showing up everywhere.
Oh well, lesson learned.
didnt know that.. i have thousands of mp3 on a media server in the basement .. but cant bind it into music folder anyways because the network drive does not support indexing
