This one has me stumped, today I transferred 5 songs to my phone's internal memory (I don't use a SD card) after that not one single song would play, I tried deleting the songs I transferred, that didn't work, tried deleting the whole music folder then copying 3 songs I had on my phone before back into my phone, I tried clearing data on app media storage, cleared cache, formatted internal storage, did a factory reset and I finally I re-flashed the Rom (padawan JB 2) after all that I transferred a single song and still won't play. it freezes for a few seconds then it gives me this cannot play track error.
The only weird thing about this is that I can use ES explorer browse to my music on my PC and it will just play fine on the regular music player.:silly:
Anyone heard of this or have this happened to them, I tried searching Google but I didn't have much luck, I tried searching here but it says that search is not working right now...

Hey everyone,
i installed MIUI v1.7.22 on my phone.
Everything is working fine, but however the music player isn't finding all of my songs.
I have about 2600 music files by 225 artists but the music player is just showing 1200 files and 4 artists
Tried to set the filter option to 0 kb: didn't change anything, my external sd- card is recognized.
Any suggestions?
You could try putting them all in one folder...
/sdcard/media
well, all my music is stored on the external sd card
tried it but changed nothing, again...
instead, its now only showing the files on the internal sd card...
i have the same problem...only read some folders, not all...
this fixed it for me
I posted this reply in another thread too, but since this is newer, it hopefully won't hurt to repeat it.
I've tried MIUI several times (different builds), and I've always had this problem. Just on a hunch, I tried something today that fixed it for me. Might work for you too.
1. Installed ROM Manager. Chose reboot into recovery mode.
2. In recovery mode I first fixed permissions. Then I wiped Dalvik cache (I suspect this didn't really do anything, but I did it, so I include it). Then I went into the mount menu and mounted sd card (it said unmounted before).
3. Reboot
4. Watched the music player starting to count up all the missing music.
Is this working for anyone else? It sure isn't working for me. I've been using poweramp as a substitute, but I love the miui player.
Okay so today i was using Play music , which has been running fine and then today i got a error saying ,"couldn't play the track you requested". So what i did was removed the sd card out (my songs are stored in the sd card) , put it back in , waited a bit , nothing happened , i rebooted with and without the sd card in. And nothing worked , the same problem occurred. So what i did was download a another music app, i went and download the n7 music app. It played the songs but one problem came , which was all the songs had a copy and the copies of the would not play. So what i did was just mount the sd card into my computer and then delete all of the songs and then put them back in, but it still showed the copies off the song , even when i took out the sd card , it still happened.
Then i just boot into recovery and then wiped data/ factory rest, wipe cache and dalvik cache, formatted system, cache and datadata and reflashed my rom. But now the problem is none of the songs even show up on any of the music apps have. I can play the song from the file explorer browser but thats it , it won;t show up on the music player. I even cleared data on the media storage and rebooted and nothing!
Sorry for the long as post but i just wanted to be in full detail on what i did. So can someone please help me, i have no idea what i did wrong. So i hope someone can help me.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
My Prime just developed a weird problem out of the blue. No music apps that use the media scanner can see the music files on my MicroSD card. Stuff from /sdcard is showing up but anything mounted on /Removable is invisible, both MicroSD and SD... The files are there and can be opened with a file explorer. Images on external storage get picked up by the gallery as well.
I've checked for ".nomedia" files, rebooted, cleared play music data/cache, stopped and restarted media process and cleared it's data cache, wiped system cache, did a dirty reinstall of my ROM (AndroWook 2.1), used alternate players/browsers to browse to and play the files (Winamp/Poweramp), tried most of the above docked/undocked, etc. Nothing is working. I'm about ready to wipe the system and do a full reinstall of my ROM but that is a pain, so I'm willing to try any decent suggestion anyone might have as an alternate solution.
Sice a few days I have a very strange error on my Galaxy S III. On the external SD-Card I have serveral MP3 files but when I start the MP3 Player it says, that there are no MP3s. I have tried another SD-Card and copied the MP3s to the internal SD-Card, no effect. Also some notifications and pictures, which are on the internal SD-Card are missing in the selection menu respectively in the gallery. I have deleted the media storage a few times, so the S III has to reinitialize it, there is no success. Unfortunately then I get some force closes from the media manager.
I have an unbranded version of the S III without LTE and Android 4.0.4 original stock, which isn't rooted.
Try EXT SD MP3 in media folder .

I can't select external SD-Card in media folder. Also it's not possible to update the database manually.
Try rescan media from the playstore

I had the same problem. Looks like media library is not updated. There is a way to update it manually, but it's funny. I have no idea why does it work that way only.
Open your MP3 folder with 'My Files' app and then just move it to any other location. That should solve your problem.
You can try any other file manager, but it won't work
If rescan media does not work, then press menu, manage apps. Scroll down to Media Storage and clear data on that. Re-run rescan media. This will clear the cache and force the phone to rescan all locations for media files again. Also make sure that the folder with the mp3s does not have a .nomedia file in it.
Thank you for your answers. After deleting the Media Storage the phone hasn't recognized all ringtones, notifications and pictures. So yesterday I did a hard reset and after some time I got an error message android.process.media force close. It also happens without external SD-Card and no other media on the internal SD-Card except the stock media. Now the media database ist complete, but when I restart my phone every time I will get the force close. I think, this happens after the last update for about 4 weeks so Samsung did something wrong. Unfortunately there is no official update to Android 4.1.1 yet. I hope, the error disappears with the new firmware.
Hi, I think I can help you. First you try download es file explorer and try play via es player. Then report to me of its working.
