Gnome Music 3.10 not working properly

Hi all,
I'm having trouble getting the freshly installed Gnome Music application to work. When I start it from the console it outputs:
(gnome-music:1746): Grilo-WARNING **: [upnp] grl-upnp.c:342: Failed to execute GetSearchCaps operation
(gnome-music:1746): Grilo-WARNING **: [upnp] grl-upnp.c:344: Reason: Access denied
(gnome-music:1746): Grilo-WARNING **: [upnp] grl-upnp.c:342: Failed to execute GetSearchCaps operation
(gnome-music:1746): Grilo-WARNING **: [upnp] grl-upnp.c:344: Reason: Access denied
Gnome Music meanwhile starts up and displays "No Music found" as well as "Put some files in the folder None".
Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem? Thanks in advance for any help.

I realize this is a somewhat old thread, but I ran into the exact same problem and would like to post what I did to solve it, step by step.
The problem was related to the fact that the tracker miners (see "man -k tracker" for more information) were not actually going through the Music folder. This is because, as Pse noted above, XDG_MUSIC_DIR was not set properly, since the ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs files did not exist, to fix this, I installed xdg-user-dirs, and ran
xdg-user-dirs-update
which created the ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs file.
At this point, I reloaded the tracker database by running
tracker-control -e
tracker-control --start
(the process of the tracker can then be monitored using "tracker-control -F"). After that gnome-music worked fine.
What I don't understand is why the package gnome-music doesn't depend on xdg-user-dirs.
Comment: I would just like to mention the option /org/freedesktop/Tracker/Miner/Files in gsettings, which should allow to set extra directories for the miners to mine in.

    Music/iTunes Match not working properly since update to iOS 7

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.

  • Just upgraded to iOS5 on iPad. Music app and mail does not work properly.

    Just upgraded iPad2 to iOS5. Music app does not work properly. When I select a song to play, it plays a different song. Sometimes, it just stops playing songs, other times, it shuffles songs.
    Not sure whats going on.
    Worked fine using iOS4.3.5.
    Synced the iPad to iCloud. enabled mail. It shows under settings that the iCloud mail is setup, but the mail does not appear in the mail app. Not sure whats happening with these functions on iOS5.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • My music app on my iphone 5 is not working properly since I downloaded ios7.

    The music app on my iphone 5 is not working properly since I downloaded ios7.
    Sometimes I start to use the music app and then part way though a track it stops. I try to re-start it with no joy. I'm also finding the touch screen is less responsive. Can any help me fix the issue or will I need to take it into the store?

    Removing the SIM has no affect on the power of the phone. It is just the part that facilitates connecting to your carrier. Try holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo on the screen and then release the buttons. The phone should reboot. You may need to hold the buttons together for 15-30 seconds.

    Under normal circumstances, an uninstall/reinstall doesn't touch your content. (That being said, it's still always a good idea to maintain a current backup at all times in case of disasters of any sort.)

  • Mouse is not working properly on a one month old HP Pavillion 15-NO28US

    I'm sure it's already been talked about on here, but I haven't found a successful fix or the same exact problem as I'm having. I went thru the latest Windows 8.1 update recently (at least I think it was the update) and when I restarted my computer yesterday the mouse was not working properly. Like a lot of other people who are complaining about it, the two-finger scrolling and other similar features are not working, but what really bothers me is the the mouse is almost acting like it was changed to a left handed mouse. I've checked the settings and it is still set on right-handed, but when I click the left mouse button the small window opens up next to where I clicked, which has the copy, delete and paste options (and other regular options) in it. When I click the right mouse button, nothing happens. Double tapping on the touchpad doesn't do anything either. I downloaded and install the latest synaptic drivers and nothing happened. I even performed a system recovery last night to reset all setting and it's still not working. This really sucks because I've only had this computer for about a month and I've already lost everything I've put on it...most importantly all of my school work and music apps. Is there anything to fix this or can anyone tell me what's going on with this stuff, before I have to call into HP and have a melt down?

    Hi Kevin3047,
    Thank you for your query, I will do my best to assist you!!
    I understand that after updating from Windows 8 to 8.1 your mouse is not performing correctly. You have tried the built in troubleshooter but to no avail.
    You checked the settings and they appear ok, but when you click the left mouse button the small window opens up next to where you  clicked, which has the copy, delete and paste options (and other regular options) in it. When you click the right mouse button, nothing happens. Double tapping on the touchpad doesn't do anything either. I grasp that you did a recovery but it did not help.  You also stated you lost your data once, and that in itself is extremely aggravating, I agree.
    Here is a step that may help.
    Go to the Command Prompt and right click on it to run as Administrator
    type sfc /scannow and press enter.  This will scan for corrupted files and try to repair them.
    Here are links to two documents that may aid with this process.
    Troubleshooting Mouse Problems (Windows 8)
    Using and Troubleshooting the TouchPad or ClickPad (Windows 8)
    Would you also please try a clean boot to see if it persists. Here is  a Windows document to assist you.
    How to perform a clean boot in Windows
    If none of this has alleviated the issue, I suggest you do a  Refresh Your PC to Resolve Problems (Windows 8).
    If the issue still pesists, I would do a recovery again.  You will be prompted during the recovery to backup your personal files to prevent data loss. I would suggest you choose yes, to prevent data loss.
    Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 8)
    Restoring Files that were Backed Up Using HP Recovery Manager (Windows 8)
    This will take it back to factory. Here is a document on Updating Windows 8 to 8.1 to assist you with doing the update again.
    If you are still experiencing the issue, as @visruth stated I would contact HP support for assistance.  They are able to remotely log onto your system to help with this difficulty.
    Please call HP technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region HP Technical Support Sitemap.
    Good Luck!!

  • Satellite P25-S520 - DVD drive is not working properly

    Fix DVD Drive or buy external drive
    My DVD drive is not working properly, in fact it may never have been working proper. Recently I tried to back up my PC to a DVD using Norton 360. Norton did not recognize the DVD was present. I then tried writing a text file to a DVD and was unsuccessful. Both DVD+R and DVD-R media were tried (Maxwell 16X).
    I could have probably lived with this however, I got a copy of Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 10 on a CD and my Toshiba would not recognize it. I tried the CD in my neighbors laptop and it was recognized.
    An attempt at updating the driver was also unsuccessful.
    I was able to rip a music CD last night so that at least is working correctly.
    Does anybody know how I can fix this? The important part is being able to load my new program.
    Searching some forums I've found that other people have had problems with the Pioneer drive. If the drive cannot be fixed I am not adverse to buying an external DVD drive. Unfortunately where I live there are no brick-and-mortar stores which sell external drives and I would prefer to avoid the hassle of getting a drive online and discovering that it does not work with my Toshiba. Can anyone suggest an external USB drive which will read and write CDs and DVDs and which is certain to be compatible with my Toshiba?
    Thank you for any help,

    Any external USB CD/DVD drive will be compatible with your laptop.
    However you wont be able to boot of CD's (Run Recovery for example) if you use an external drive.
    So your best option would be to replace the internal drive with a Toshiba drive designed for the laptop. Call an ASP and ask for a quotation.

  • N70 not working properly

    My N70 is not working properly. Whenever I try to install new softwares, it says 'Corrupted File!'. I can't view my captured images and videos, it says 'Corrupted File!'. It even damages my music tracks. I have formatted my phone memory as well as my memory card for many times but still it isn't solved.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi bipul,
    Have you tried Hard Format in the phone? If not, try the steps below:
    Hold 3 keys; Green dial key, * Star key, no. 3 key on keypad (until you get it to work).
    - Turn off PIN code requests.
    - Charge the phone fully.
    - Turn off the phone.
    - Remove the memory card (not really needed, but I usually do it to be on the safe side).
    - Put the phone on a table (easier to press the keys then, in my opinion).
    - Press the three keys and keep them securely down and do not release.
    - While the keys are still down, turn the power on.
    - Do not release the three keys until you see the prompt for the home city.
    If it doesn't work, retry until you get it right. It is easier if you have three hands.
    If you can dial, try atleast these steps to reset to factory settings:
    dial *#7370# after that it will ask for security code dial 12345 it's by default! make sure you back up your important detail first
    Either of them should work.

  • Icon Preview In Finder Not Working Properly

    Ever since upgrading to Lion I've had the issue of icon preview not working properly in finder. This mostly occurs with movie files such as .wmv files. Some take a long time to show a preview and some don't even show a preview. In Snow Leopard this was never an issue.
    This also seems to happen in stacks as well. I'll get a greyed out box with a dsah borded. Seems as though it's the large files that do this.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    I'm experiencing the same thing but with all kinds of files that have shown a preview in snow leopard: pictures, PDF-documents, music (with album art). It seems that previews are not created automatically whenever I change the name of a file or edit it in any other way, the preview shows up instantly. Rebooting works, too.
    This is really annoying and a little online search shows, several people are having the same problem. As far as I know, there's no fix yet.

  • Plug and play speakers not working properly after upgrading to Windows 8.1

    After upgrading to Windows 8.1, my plug and play speakers do not work properly.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled them, and restarted.  When I try to play music, nothing comes out.  If I turn them off and back on, music will play for approximately 30 seconds, only from one speaker, then it turns off and fades to no sound.  They worked fine until I upgraded to Windows 8.1.  The manufacturer has not been able to successfully assist me.  Has anyone else reported a similar issue after upgrading OS software?  Any suggestions?  These are fairly new speakers, less than 2 years old, and not used very much.  I do have them installed via a K-V switch, and all other devices linked to the K-V switch are functioning properly (monitor and wireless keyboard).  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • Home sharing not working properly on my iBook OS X

    Hi, I just purchased a iBook OS X, and I'm having trouble using it.  I have used Windows my whole life and this is new for me.
    The problem I'm having is trying to transfer my iTunes music library from my windows of to this iBook, and I have tried doing home share and authorizing computer on iBook, but it doesn't do anything.  Unfortunately my windows pc is not working properly and it freezes up every time I try to log in, so I can't really do nothing with that.  I can't even check if that pc's home share is turned on, which I think it is.
    Do you guys have any idea how I can transfer my music library without having to use my windows pc?
    Please helppppp! I purchased this laptop from a guy, so I don't fall in the complimentary service  and can't afford to pay apple care.
