Every time I try to download my music through Google play music it does not work. I am noticing this problem more on my nexus 7 but there have been some occurances on my galaxy s 4.
I have tried all basic trouble shooting. I have cleaned chache, force stop, clear data, uninstall and reinstall up dates, also I have tried to download different tracks in case there a problem with a certain one. I even got so desperate I did a factory reset on my nexus 7.
Any thoughts besides what I have mentioned above are greatly appreciated. I am getting desperate.
I'm having the same problem! It's driving me crazy. I've tried clearing cache, uninstalling the app, trying different songs / playlists.
I've tried two different ROM's thinking that maybe it was the new ROM I installed. Also having similar issues on my tablet. Both devices will download some tracks then fail with others but it's never the same songs or playlists.
My phone is a Verizon HTC One M8 and i'm having trouble on Sense ROM's, GPE and LiquidSmooth as well as issues on my Verizon LG G Pad 8.3
I have solved my problem. The problem was that I had just recently uploaded an album and Google tried to match some of my songs with theirs so it would upload faster. Well I found out I couldn't play the songs they matched. I deleted them and bam everything is fine now.
If that doesn't work for you I contacted Google and they said that with the most recent Google play music update there is a known problem that you can't download songs and they are working on it. Hang tight.

Thanks for the info. I haven't uploaded anything to my library in over a year so I doubt that's the issue.
Guess i'll just tough it out. Ugh.

I'm having the same issue, have you been able to find a fix? I contacted Google and am waiting for their email.

Unfortunately no. I contacted google support and I'm still waiting for a reply. My temporary solution was to install Spotify and try out their free trial.

Anyone here a part of it? I'm actually loving it right now. The fact that I don't really need to worry about sdcard space saves me. I can just stream my music to my phone since I always have an excellent wifi/4g signal. It can automatically copy your itunes/windows media/etc.. playlists and settings and this is a plus. What do you guys think?
I also love the service, but the app itself could use some work. it is a bit wonky.
Biggest pain was getting my 50gb music collection uploaded. Glaring issue is that I need to organize my music better.
Yeah I have It, but I think the app needs an overhaul.

I have been on Google Music Beta for about 2 months. The only problem is that it would not sync my iTunes acct. I contacted Google and they asked me to send the crash log (don't know why I didn't just send that with the initial email) but they have not yet gotten back to me. I have just about given up on Google Support as I have sent them 4 emails in the last month. It would be perfect if I could get this to work on the E3D.
I had the same issue but when I cleared data it began to work flawlessly.

I've been using it as well, but noticed that the Music Manager can be quite finicky with the uploads. There's definitely been many songs that haven't uploaded for no apparent reason.
also, i wish we could upload lossless (flac) and not have it converted to mp3.
other than that, i've been pretty happy with it.

I love it. Free.

I agree, i love the concept but the app could really use some work. I really like the native music player on the phone.
Also the album art is a joke. I now have Pitbull as the default album art for everything.

Can you send out invites like everything else Google? I signed up for it like 2 weeks ago and nothing.

No it doesn't let you send out invites....you just gotta wait to get yours...it took me like two months and I know some people who got it in two weeks ...and they requested their invite much later than me.....
I like Google music but the Android app could use some work...better app optimization when scrolling through tracks, albums or artists.....right now it just lags when you scroll.....Also for some reason the tracks in some of my albums do not get sorted by lowest track number to highest .....
Other than that its great.
it's nice and it's growing on me, but here are my quirks
You aren't able to download your music. As far as I know this can only be done on your phone. It's nice that it's in the 'cloud'; however, I still need to maintain a copy on my computer if I need to transfer it to some other device or media that doesn't have the ability to connect to GMusic.
Better online sound quality. Over the phone it seems to sound much better than through a web browser on my pc.

One thing I noticed is that even if I have "Sync music" unchecked in my Accounts & Sync settings, the Google Music service will sometimes still start itself up without me ever opening the app. Happens about half the time I do a reboot.
I'm using the service as well and I really like it. On my original evo I had a issue with it constantly disconnecting from my gmail account. Now with the 3D I haven't seen that problem yet

Google Music
Sup guys, quick question, does anyone have Google music up and running completely on R.G. 2.1 or Virtuous Unity Sense ? I have the music manager set up on my laptop, I downloaded the app from the market,but when I go to Menu/settings/Sync, there is no option to sync music or is this an option at all ? I hope that I'm posting this in the right forum, thanks in advance for your help....
Thing I hate is sometimes for no reason the music manager will give me errors for music i'm trying to upload. Then a few days later I look at it when im about to upload something else and all of the errors that were there are gone and the songs have actually downloaded. That and the fact that sometimes it duplicates music.
Hi,
I have an HTC Titan and used to run Shazam OK, but stopped working.
Uninstalled, restarted, re-installed and the same issue.
I have sent my phone back to HTC and they have completely reflashed it - everything else works fine. I am still using 8107.
I have once again downloaded Shazam and I get the error "couldnt complete setup at this time. Please try later. Error (2)"
Any ideas?

If even HTC couldn't fix it won't it be worth checking if Shazam can advice anything?
Also, check out the in-built music recognition via search button. I've never needed anything like Shazam or Soundhound after using that. It also links me to marketplace for some songs I want to download or buy! - I love it.

Agree, the built in solution (accessed by the magnifying glass followed buy the music symbol) works OK - no where near as accurate as Shazam based on my experience though.
Have mailed Shazam AGAIN .... still waiting for a response.
Weird, it works just fine on my Titan II. I wonder that the difference is...
Still not working
HTC have just replaced my Titan with a new one.
Before downloading ANY other apps, I downloaded Shazam and tried to run it.
Same problem as before, 'cant install at this time' blah blah…
Unbelieveable!!!
Any ideas?
Is it a problem with my Windows / Hotmail account?
Or maybe Orange?
I can live without Shazam, the built in app is OK but that's not the point....

Try with another live mail account ...Its not the device ..its your account m8
Before I start- all details about the ROM im using, kernel etc are listed on my signature.
So the problem is- for the past few hours on my s3 I haven't been able to access playstore and Gmail is not syncing either. On my s3's account settings, it shows sync error on my google account.
The strange thing is: On my laptop browsers (chrome/firefox), I cannot access playstore either, but I can access Gmail
I tried a full wipe/factory reset and reflashed g-apps. I'm tempted to flash another rom but I'm not sure whether that'll solve anything.
Can anyone help me please? I'm totally lost- no idea what's causing this issue :/
Nevermind. Reconnected my internet modem and now its fine again.

Hi,
I am having the same sort of issue... I have a galaxy S3 gt-i9300. My google sync suddenly failed.

When i tried to add the google account again it seems not to work. the bar just keeps moving for eva n eva widout responding. hence i cannot access my play store youtube channel or anything else related.
I even updated to omega jelly beans ROM but have the same problem. other accounts like facebook sync fine.

Yea I'm back to the same problem as you again. It was working fine for a day after I reconnected my internet- but now google suddenly stopped syncing on my phone- can't get new emails and can't access gplay either. By the way- do you live in a place where they recently banned YouTube due to that anti-muslim video? I'm in Bangladesh- and YouTube has been banned here for over a week now- and hence in some messed-up freaky way this is conflicting with other Google services like play and gmail I still don't understand it- but there's nothing I could do but to wait till the ban is uplifted. I could now access gmail and gplay on my pc - but they load very slowly- and gmail always show a ''connection failed'' error after a while- but thankfully gives me some time to quickly read my emails. This sucks indeed I wasn't really bothered when I learnt they're banning YouTube in my place- but just cannot deal without gmail and play on my phone!!
Is Youtube banned in your country? If so this is the same issue that many others are facing! Please confirm!!!
sync is not working for me either :S [ICS]

Does anyone know where I can find the latest version of Music Junk? Mine just keeps saying "Network Error" and all the searches I have done are really old posts. Can someone help me please???
Looks like it might be gone for good since the Facebook and Twitter page has been pulled....
I've been wondering the same, but I guess it really is finally gone for good... which blows because it was the best app for downloading music, hands down.
After posting my last, I installed Music Junk 4.3 on my phone again and opened it immediately to try it out again. I searched for music and it actually worked. I downloaded a couple of songs and everything, but then it stopped working after trying another search. Not sure what this means, but hopefully something positive...
Can you post a link for 4.3? I couldn't find it anywhere. I found other versions, but not that one. Pretty Please?
I have this problem with 4.3 I also tried to uninstall & reinstall. I tried 4.2 as well with no luck. This is typical of them when they change versions, but I haven't seen a 4.4 version out there...

But the more important question is are you getting 4.3 to work? Seems like most of us are getting "network error" on any searches.
I have a 4.3, but it's not like it's doing me any good.

I did last night, randomly... decided to install it again and try it. The first search worked and I was able to download several songs. After that, no such luck. I've been getting network error ever since.
I remember long time back (HTC hero days) music junk used to have some files, that used to pull data from these music websites, that used to get outdated. hence, the new versions would have the new files and we would not get the network errors...
If we can get a developer to look into some recent music junk versions and look into the changes made, we might be able to get it working again.

The thing is that music junk was the only app that showed the bitrate of each song. And it worked! The quality of songs was amazing.
The thing is that there is a very easy fix for this Network error... We just need a developer to look into it.

I agree, with Rolle you are at the mercy of whatever is available bit rate wise. I have had good results so far, sometimes CD 44.1 quality or near, sometimes its complete crap. Just throwing out there for a suggestion to hold you over! I agree and hope a developer can modify music junk as necessary.

My worst nightmares have come true. Music junk hands down the best music app without an overly stupid gui, has bitrate info, and the largest music selection.
I'm seriously debating getting back into java programming to make it work again... but soo much work

Anybody know of an alternative method of downloading free music, I haven't paid for music in three years thanks to music junk.

I think it's a done deal, guys. Anytime the servers went offline & we waited on a new version,I was still able to download on mj ver3.0.that is the only version that would work all the time even when the newer current ones would come network error. Needless to say, 3 isn't working anymore.
No way 4.3 was working for me this month now i get network error why i love this app. Any one know if there is an update like 4.4 or am alternative app out there?
I'm using v 3.0.4, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. The trick is i have to press search a few times, i get the "network error'' the first tries but eventually it loads the search page. I get the error far more times when im using the network than through wi fi. But once it goes through i click on the song and downloads on the first try.
I have recently updated my Nexus 4 to Android 4.4. Since the update, TinyShark (3.1.9) will not play songs. The app starts, and connects without any problem. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but the songs will still not play. I don't take too kindly to KitKat right now.

Unfortunate that the issue still has not been resolved by the developer.. BUT why don't you just listen from html5.grooveshark.com ? that usually works for me.
The TinyShark Downloader still works fine as well, you just have to preview songs on the html5 website.
Mostly because my playlist lives in my app and I'm lazy
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I think the problem has to do with the way the app references the download location. It is trying to directly access the device for storage instead of /sdcard and kitkat doesn't allow this.
I changed the download directory in TinyShark Downloader and got it to work, but I can't change it in TinyShark. Anyone know a way to do that?
