After updating to ios5, my music app crashes my phone

Before updating my iPhone 3Gs, my iPod app worked fine both in the app screen directly and from the lock screen. Now, after the new iOS5 update has been applied, whenever I use the new music app for an extended period of time, the music starts glitching and it crashes the iPhone causing it to reboot. Does anyone have any idea what's going on? All the music on my iPhone has been purchased and uploaded to my phone via iTunes so there are no outside sources that the music files came from and thus no possible corrupt data. I'm confused.

I have actually since found a solution to my problem and now have a pretty seamless iphone 3gs running iOS5. The problem turned out to be what appears to be some faulty album information in one o my albums. Lord only knows what exact part of the album was faulty but either way it's fixed now. I discovered said faulty album by merely systematically navigating to each song in my library until my iPhone crashed. Once i found one song that caused it to die, i checked the other songs in the album. Turns out the whole album caused. My iPhone to crash. I deleted the album out of y library and now everything is working just the way it's supposed to. So it is likely you guys are also experiencing a similar issue with possible faulty ir corrupt song data. I would go through at some point and check out every song you have installed to your phone and see if you can weed out the bad songs.
About the seemingly misplaced album art, i had that issue as well for a long time i was working with a pc that was running windows xp at the time. I recently switched over to a mac mini as my source to sync my phone with and now all my album art work is right as rain. I'v heard this is a common occurence among pc users and i would be willing to bet that if you can get your paws on a mac and sync it up with a mac, all your albins will look the way they're supposed to.
By the way just incase there is one specific album that is causing th problem, the devious album on mine was was one of the EPs released by Skrillex. I actually went to itunes to doublecheck what the album name was and it's actually been removed. This may actually be what caused the iPhone failure. But anyway if you have that EP that has songs like weekends and f***ing die on it then that'ms the one i'm talking about.
Hope this helps.

After Updating to IOS5 my contacts app crashes

Hi.
My wife has an iPhone 4 and after she updated to IOS 5 (which has crashed once), the Contacs app crashed every time when she tip on a Name in the contacts list.
When she tries to recover from iTunes there comes an error, that the contacs app is in use, so it coulndt be updatet.
What we tried already:
Reset the iPhone (Home and Powerbuton)
Kill the app by doubleclicking the home button and kill the tasks
Shouting at the iPhone..
Any Idea..?
What will happen if we try to restore the factory default? Is everything gone? Apps, Contacts,...
Thx for help!

Okay after spending a couple of days trying to downgrade from iOS5 unsuccessfully I've fixed it - for my phone, YMMV.
1. I did a back up of my important data (i.e. just my contacts using a Contact Import/Export app)
2. Did a restore of the iPhone
3. Choose "Set up as New Phone" when prompted.
4. Imported contacts from the backup and resynced my other data to the phone.
Seems to be working with iOs5 at this stage for me. Hopefully this helps you out.

After updating to iOS8, the Numbers app crashes every time I try to use my attendance sheet.

I have updated to iOS8.0.2 and I've updated the Numbers app. I generally use my iPad (4th gen, with retina display) to take attendance with the template in the Numbers app. However, every time I scroll through a page with check buttons, the app crashes. This did not happen before updating. Is there a way to get this on Apple's radar, as it seems to be an instability in iOS8? Is there anything I can do in the meantime?

I suggest you try another app.
All of the "Office" document editing applications on the iPad have limitations. Best try them out to see if they meet your needs.

HT1386 HELP!!! I cannot sync my iPhone to iTunes. The message says I don't have enough access privelages. And I cannot drag/drop any songs into my device. After updating, I have no music content on my phone. Please, can somebody tell me how to fix this?

Can someone please help me? I cannot sync my phone with iTunes after updating the software, & my phone has no music. The message window keeps saying I don't have enough access privelages. It also won't recognize my new subscription to iCoud when I turn on iMatch in Settings. I have tried everything I can think of & am ready to throw this thing out of the window in frustration.

The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer.

After upgrading to ios5.1 photo app crashes when trying to edit "cropping"photos. I've shut it down and also tried a reboot.

Does anyone else experience this problem?
When I try to edit photos in the photo app and in the camera app
I try to crop them and the system will randomly crash. Giving me
either a circle ticking logo on a black screen or the system will
reboot completely with a black screen, Apple logo, and then
back to the lock screen.

I have a PC running Windows Vista so what I had to do was in iTunes make sure that all my photos were SYNC'd with my pictures directory. After that when I was sure that I had all the photos that were on my iPhone in my windows pictures directories then I deleted all my pictures off of my iPhone. In order to do this once you plug your iPhone into your computer via the 30 pin dock connector cable, and after the computer recognizes your iPhone, a window will pop up in Windows that shows your device. iOs will allow you to open up a file folder that contains your photos.
Note: there may be several file folders depending on the library size of your pictures and if you have photo stream enabled. In my case I had four folders and these folders or a combination of numbers and letters. These folder names are randomly generated through iOS but just be aware that these folders contain your photos and videos. I know that one folder was just my photo stream because I did not have very many pictures, and two folders had my entire photo library and camera roll in them and another folder had just my videos in it.
The process is pretty simple: once I open these folders, I highlighted all my pictures and deleted them. Once they were deleted off the phone then I went into the iTunes "summary" page for my iPhone. I then went to the "photos" tab and I made sure that the box was checked to sync my photos. In my case I don't have my entire photo library on my phone so I have selected folders button checked. Then I just SYNC'd my phone again. It didn't take too long for iTunes to transfer all my photos back to my phone. After this process was complete I checked all my photos and tried to crop them and had no problems. I also did some screen captures on my phone by pressing the sleep/wake button and the home button at the same time. Again I tried to crop photos and had no problem.
So what I believe with the expert advice from Adam Christiansen of the Mac cast podcast was that I had a corrupt photo file or corrupt metadata from a photo file. So what this was doing was causing a system crash and reboot in iOS. I was able to verify this in my diagnostic files on my iPhone in the settings / general / about / diagnostics and usage / diagnostics and usage data TABS.
I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU AS IT ALLEVIATED MY PROBLEM. I HAVEN'T HAD ANYMORE PROBLEMS WITH THIS ISSUE AND WHAT I'VE DESCRIBED ABOVE IS A WAY TO DO IT WITHOUT RESTORING YOUR ENTIRE IPHONE. IF YOU STILL HAVE PROBLEMS AFTER DOING THIS THEN YOU HAVE ANOTHER PROBLEM WHICH PROBABLY REQUIRES THAT YOU DO DO A COMPLETE RESTORE OF YOUR IPHONE. BUT BEFORE YOU DO THE RESTORE MAKE SURE THAT YOU BACKUP YOUR IPHONE AND I WOULD SUGGEST DOING THAT TO YOUR COMPUTER AND NOT TO ICLOUD; MY REASON FOR THIS IS THOUGH ICLOUD IS A WAY TO DO IT IT JUST TAKES MORE TIME TO RESTORE FROM A BACKUP VIA ICLOUD AS OPPOSED TO A TETHERED BACKUP VIA THE 30 PIN DOCK CONNECTOR CABLE TO YOUR COMPUTER.

After updating to iOS5 my music disapeared and wont sync.

I updated my software on my phone this weekend, and then today I realized that all my music is gone. When I am in itunes it wont let me sync or manually drag music to my iPhone. HEELLPP!!

This didn't work The sync button on my itunes is constantly grayed out, i can't click on it. I also cannot click on the apply button if I cange it to manually add music. I have tried restoring it back to a previous back up. I don't know what else to do Apple seems to not even be able to help. updating was the worst thing I have done.

Music app crashes constantly after iOS5 update and won't restart.

I have an iPhone 4 that I updated to iOS5 last week. The first time I tried the new Music App, it ran very sluggishly. I then connected it to my JVC car stereo via the dock connector (Made for iPod), and the Music App crashed. After crashing, it just shows a blank white screen when you try to start the app, then crashes again after about ten seconds.
I can delete all the music from the iPhone via iTunes, and then re-add it, which seems to work for getting the Music App working again. But as soon as I try to connect it to the dock connector on my car stereo, it crashes again as previously described. Grrr.

No answers, only wanted to commiserate—I had a similar problem, and now my iPhone 5 running iOS 5 is showing the blank white screen for the Music app every time. No music showing anywhere, even when NOT connected to the dock in my car. I was wondering if the bug was related to the number of songs/size of files (since I have a crapload of music). This has to be happening to others...
My Music App screen:

IOS 8.3 Music app Crashes after skipping songs

I am having issues after updating to iOS 8.3 on a 128gb iPhone 6. The Music app launches and will work, but will crash if I skip about 2 songs. It seems I can get it to relaunch if I force quit the app then reboot the phone. However it works for a few songs then crashes all over again.
Anyone else having issues with the Music app?

The music app crashes when using playlists all the time.
I have the same problem with my iPhone 6 64 Gb and the IOS 8.3.
It just happens when using the "Intelligent playlists".
First case:
Enter a playlist.
Click on a song.
The song is playing.
Click once >> and the next song starts playing.
Click again on >> and the app crashes.
Second case:
Enter a playlist.
The choosen song is playing.
Click on the top left < to back and the app crashes again.
Third case:
If you let the playlist playing without forwarding or backwarding or click on < (top left) the playlist seems to run ok.
Solutions I tried with no success:
I made a full restore of the iPhone 6 and no solution.
I deleted all the playlists and I created them again and no solution.
It seems to me that it happens more often when using .m4a files but I'm not sure about it.

Music app crashes after ios6 installed

The pre-installed Music "app" on my phone crashes consistently ever since I installed the ios6 update.
Half of the time, it opens to a frozen screen listing the artists in my collection; the other half, it opens to the screenshot listed below. Both result in a crash and closing of the app on its own within 20 seconds.
Is this just me or is this everyone?

I have the same issue it is very annoying. I can't listen to music on my iphone...
I've tried to fix it, and restored the phone. Music app still crashes. So this is something should be solved by apple!

Hey there Steamboat14,
It sounds like you are unable to use 3rd party music apps on your phone after you udpated to iOS 8. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article for each app affected in this way, named:
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
Restart the app
Close the app and open it again.
Restart your device
Turn the device off and on.
Update your device software and your apps
Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
Update your apps:
Open the App Store and tap Updates.
If updates are available, tap Update All.
If asked, enter your Apple ID password. The updates will download and install.
You might need a Wi-Fi connection to update some apps.Reinstall the app
Remove the app from your device and reinstall it. Remember that deleting an app also deletes its data.
Delete the app.
Press the Home button.
Go to the App Store and download the app again.
Wait for the app to download, then open it from the Home screen.
If the download stops, you can resume it.Contact the developer
If you see the issue again, contact the developer of the app for help:
Find the app in the App Store.
Tap the app and tap Reviews.
Tap App Support.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

How come my apps won't open after updating to ios5

how come my apps won't open after updating to ios5?

Thanks for the feedback. This is a custom enterprise application. So there is not an update yet. It will take our developer a little time to get it IOS 5 compatiable. So unless I can change the IOS we can't use application until we get upgrade of the custom app.

IOS5 Music App crashing when going to podcasts

My music app keeps crashing whenever I select the "podcast" tab in the music app.
Here have been the steps I've taken so far:
1. Connect to iTunes, remove podcasts from phone
2. Upon doing this, the music app crashes instantly upon opening
3. If I select "reset all settings" on the phone, the music app will start back up - but continue to crash when navigating to podcast tab
Notes
+ If I select my computer library (home sharing) within the music app, the podcasts show up and play fine (pulling from my computer)
+ The "Muisc +" app accesses all my music and plays fine (but I can't get to podcasts from within that app)
+ I can use voice commands to play a music - and skip forward/back from the lock screen
Hardware:
iPhone 4, ATT, 32GB
iOS 5.0.1
Any help/suggestions?

I'm still having this issue - wanted to add some additional details:
+if i search on my iPhone (swipe all the way to the left home screen), several podcasts show up; even after syncing and telling iTunes to sync 1 most recent podcast or none at all
+I can play these podcasts from the "search" menu, but when I hit back, it brings me to the default music app tab, and if i tab to the podcast tab (even with the podcast playing), the app will crash
+in iTunes, when I set my podcasts to only keep the most recent one, then sync my phone - it will pull these random podcasts back into iTunes
+The date on these podcasts is 12/31/00 (even though they are from 2011)
It seems like the "12/31/00" labeled podcasts are impossible to delete and causing my music app to crash.

After Updating Mountain Lion, Mail & Safari keep crashing; WLAN Connection fails

After Updating Mountain Lion, Mail & Safari keep crashing; WLAN Connection fails;
I have updatet Mountain Lion and since then, Mail & Safari keep crashing plus: WLAN Connections keeps on failing from time to time.
My Router has the newest firmware, i am clueless what to do.
I even cannot shut down my mac properly.

Hello you all,
I also had the problem of a disconnecting wifi while my imac was sleeping. I did not have the reconnecting issue after sleep, but the lost connection issue during sleep which made it impossible to reach my imac for things like homesharing, apple tv or remote desktop. I have a late 2012 iMac with a clean ML 10.8.2 on it and wirelessly connected to an apple time capsule (same as an airport extreme). My partner has a mid 2007 iMac, also with an ML 10.8.2 on it.
I tried every single solution I could find on the internet, such as changing the router's security from wpa2 to wpa, changing the MTU from automatic to manual 1453, router reboots, re-installations, re-configurations, keychain clean-ups, everything.
Eventually I solved my problem with these steps and now it works as a charm. I can still find the iMac with the remote app, even after 12 hours of sleep:
My time capsule router is set on automatic MTU and encrypted with WPA2 and I use the 5Ghz network!
1. Cleaned all the wifi passwords in keychain on my iMac
2. Created a new network location in system preferences
3. In this location I deleted the bluetooth pan and bluetooth dun connection.
4. In this location I changed the preferred connection-order to wifi on #1 and ethernet on #2.
5. Restarted my iMac.
Now I still have a connection when it sleeps and I can wake it to low profile using the remote app (homesharing) and everything works fine.
Hope more people wille be helped by this.
