How do i devictimize walkman and album of poor design?

I love the z3. But things like the walkman home and being unable to move, hide or organize photos is frustrating considering how great this phone is. I would like to either uninstall sony integrated apps and and use real ones. Or disable walkman home. There is also two photo viewers and im sick of picking one everything I open a photo. Neither photo viewer opens in a browsable format. Simply lays all photos from all folders out on screen. I don't understand where the idea that random sized unorganized tiles were somehow convenient or easy to use came from but walkman home is a garbage dump I like to avoid looking at. I blame windows 8's metro. It didn't work for them. Get rid of it. Conventional music browsing is what I want. And id prefer if that was an option. As well as foldered photo browsing so I don't have to hide my phone until I find the right photo. If you know what I mean. Someone please help me to do this. I would hate to have to switch to something else.

What you need or want it's a nexus phone, and even then google music and Google apps will be preloaded, THERE'S NO OTHER WAY AROUND IT, you could root your phone and uninstall as many apps as your heart content. This is an Xperia phone, therefore you will get Sony's apps preloaded, just like if you get a Samsung, LG, HTC, even an iPhone.

  • How do I move folders and albums in iPhoto on my MacBook Pro to my ipad?

    How do I move folders and albums in iPhoto on my MacBook Pro to a new iPad Air?

    To sync photos, connect your iPad to your Mac and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your Mac's iTunes (you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo albums/folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page.
    You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.

  • Walkman and Album doesn't detect any media after reboot

    I have just purchased a Sony Xperia Z1 for 1 week now, and I haven't got any problems with it until now.
    For the first 5 days, it worked out fine. Then after I powered the whole thing off in order to charge it more effectively, and when I powered it on after that, I noticed something was not right. First, I can't find any of my pictures in my albums, the images were ' undetected ' by the album, like they were hidden out of sight or something. Then my walkman couldn't detect any songs that I have previously saved, which was working fine and my playlists were gone. I can access them using the file manager but the albums and walkman and movies apps were not able to detect those files. I tried downloading other photo viewer, video viewer and a music player app but they can't detect those files for some reason. And now I can't even access my mobile data.
    Help?

  • How do you combine artists and albums in itunes?

    I just recently bought an iPod classic and am now using iTunes to edit my prolific library of music so that I can put it on my iPod.  I have much editing to do of songs, artists, albums, etc.  I am finding that some of my songs are broken up from the album they should be on, and yet the name of the album is the same and it still appears separate from the main album.  I also have some artists who are broken up as well, even though they have the same name.  How can I combine artists, albums, etc into one file?  I want all the songs from an album to be under one album and all albums to be under one artist, not two with the same name.  This was very easy to do in Windows Media Player but can't figure out how to combine songs to one album or combine artists to show up once under one file.  HELP!

    If you are on a PC and want to sync photos to the iPhone this is how you do it. First, create a folder and place the pictures that you want on the iPhone in that folder. You can copy them, or move them into that folder, whichever. Once you connect the iPhone to iTunes, from the Summary screen, click on the tab for photos. In that section, tell iTunes what folder you want to sync to the phone. It is better to make the folder you want to sync in "My Pictures" that is located in the "My Documents" folder. iTunes automatically looks at the "My Pictures" folder and can sync all photos, or you can choose particular folders. I have a folder called iPhone pictures that is in the My Pictures folder, and I tell iTunes to sync just that particular folder.
    Hope that helps you.

  • How do I change artwork and album name for a playlist?

    I can't figure out how to do this:
    I like to make cd-length playlists (essentially "mix cds") with songs that I own. I make new artwork for the mix cd, and for categorization, I like to change the Album Name and Album Artist to whatever I've named the mix (i.e., "songs about trains").
    However, if I do this, the individual songs no longer appear with their original albums, since I've changed the info on them.
    So essentially what I want to do is make a copy of the songs. I don't mind if they take up extra space on my hd. How do I do this easily?
    I know I can just burn the cd and rip it, but then I have to rename every single song, which is a pain.
    Is there an easier way? I imagine many other people like to make mix cds like me...
    Thanks.

    The reason I need to change the file name is we want the breadcrumbing name to change and the breadcrumbing is linked to the file name.
    I don't understand this reason. How would changing the file extension solve your breadcrumb issue? Why don't you explain the issue in more detail.

  • How to get back artist and album name

    I have bought or imported all of my music through itunes. However, when I updated to itunes 10, most of my artist and album information was lost. When I try to get the information, I get the message that itunes cannot get the information for items not purchased or imported through itunes???? How do I fix this?

    What's the exact message? The phrase you typed doesn't ring any bells.

    Not only this but I can't drag from Itunes and place anywhere on my desktop or onto an external drive. Apple, why are you screwing around with basic functions!? I'm a dj and I need to be able to manage my music files without you ruining my life! FIX THIS!

  • How can I import keywords and albums from iphoto 5?

    I have new imac with iPhoto 7.1. I'd like to import the keywords and albums along with the pics from my old imac and iphoto 5. Photos import, but not tags or albums. Any suggestions?

    Roy
    The trick is not to import, but to update.
    Copy the library from the old mac to the new one, then hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. Select 'Choose Library' and point iPhoto at this old one and it will update it to a v7 library, including albums and keywords.
    If you already have a new library on your new machine, then use iPhoto Library Manager to merge them or to move the pics from the older to the newer.
    Regards

  • How can I organize Songs and Albums that keep getting mixed

    I am new to Ipod Nano I would like to know if I can keep the songs seperate from downloaded Albums. So I can play only individual mp3s not the full albums as the two seem to be mixed. I there a better way to keep songs and Albums organised to they dont keep getting mixed.

  • How to change screen icons and album art?

    Does anyone know of an application, or otherwise know how to change the screen icons individually, one at a time? I don't mean adding or changing to a different summerboard. Ideally, I'd like to change a few of the icons to either photographs from my files, or to some other photo or drawing of my choosing.
    While I'm asking questions, another one concerns album covers in iTunes. ITunes gives you the ability to add more than one cover to an album but I can't see how to display one other than the original one added. Also, I can't see how to delete a cover once it's been added. I was manually adding cover art for albums that didn't have any and accidently put the wrong picture on one album. Nothing I have been able to do allows me to delete that picture. I did add the correct picture but I can't get it to display. Of course, whatever I do in iTunes I'd like for it to properly sync to the touch.
    Any ideas???

    As for your first question, there is no way of changing icons without jailbraking, which we're not allowed to discuss here.
    To view more than one artwork, simply click on the little arrow appearing in the artwork window.
    To delete it, right-click, Get Info -> Artwork and delete the picture.
    Hope this helps.

  • How much space do lyrics and album art take up on the nano?

    like how many songs would be deducted [you won't be able to upload] if you have a 2GB nano with lyrics and a picture for each song,
    how many songs do you think i would be able to store?
    thanks!

  • How to link Organization Units and Entities in Oracle Designer 9i 9.0.2.8 ?

    Hi,
    I am working with Oracle Designer in a project where we need to asses the Business Process Model of the customer, mapping it in Oracle Designer.
    The Customer wants to see the relationship between Business Entity and Organization Units and Processes.
    We are following this approach:
    - define Entity
    - define Organization Unit
    - draw process models with Oracle Designer Process Modeler, defining the single process steps and indicating the Organization Unit who performs that activity;
    - draw a Data Flow Diagram for each Entity with Oracle Designer Data Flow Diagrammer, including the business function we have defined as process steps within the Process Modeler.
    Process Modeler allows us to link process steps to Organization Units, while Data Flow Diagrammer links Entity to business functions ( which are equal to our process steps). So we expect that for the "transitive properties" Organization Units should be linked automatically to Entity.
    At the end, using Oracle Designer Matrix Diagrammer we only see the relationship between Business Functions and Entity and not the one between Organization Unit and Entity .
    In fact, if we open Object Repository Navigator and check the property "Business Unit Entity Usage" of the Business Unit, there is no evidence of the entity related to the business function performed by the Organization/Business Unit.
    Could someone helps us to understand how to use correctly the Oracle Designer Tools ?
    We look forward to hearing from you.
    Regards

    I would recommend the 10g version anyday over the previous versions. If you use any of the other supporting apps (forms, reports, portal....) your already at a much better release :)
    Is there a reason you would want to use the prior version?

  • Iphoto, Creating events and Albums

    I have attempted to create events and albums on the photo app in Ipad with no success. I have also synced the iPad to itunes and transfered pictures from an existing iphoto (macbook pro) event with no success. How can i create events and albums on the Ipad so i can seperate new pictures into specific areas for viewing.

    You can't. Photos on the iPad doesn't have organising features. You can't create groupings, or copy from one event/whatever to another. You have limited features in the 'camera roll' for images you've saved onto the iPad - you can delete them or share them.
    Your organising has to be done on the Mac in iPhoto or Aperture. Both create Events based on metadata from the image (date and time and so on). You can make albums and sync the albums to the iPad.
    I know that isn't what you want, but it's all we've got. It bears repeating - the iPad is not a completely standalone device - it's dependent on a desktop and iTunes for its full functionality.

  • HT201317 I have a MobileMe account and have shared many MobileMe Galleries.  MobileMe Galleries are going away in June.  How can I share a photo album with others using iCloud?

    I have a MobileMe account and have shared many MobileMe Galleries.  MobileMe Galleries are going away in June.  How can I share a photo album with others using iCloud?

    The new ios version of iPhoto allows sharing.  Here's a blurb from Apple's web site:
    There’s the old way of creating photo galleries, then there’s the iPhoto way. Select a group of photos and iPhoto automatically flows them into a beautiful journal that’s fun to personalize and share online. Touch a photo to make it bigger or smaller. Or drag it to a different spot on the screen. iPhoto adjusts the page around whatever you’re doing, so your journal always looks great. You can even add captions, maps, dates, and weather — giving family and friends the big picture at a glance.
    More things you can do:
    With iPhoto, there’s more than one way to share a photo. Post pictures directly to Facebook, Flickr, or Twitter. Play an impromptu slideshow on your iPad or iPhone. Or stream photos to your HDTV to give your big moments room to shine.
    I have not used ios version of iPhoto to share "journals" and I'm not sure this is part of iCloud or not.  You'll have to do a google search on "ios iphoto" and read up of this journal thing.  As far as I know, this is the only way of sharing photos.  I'm not sure whether other friends use a browser to view these journals or whether they need something special.  Any way - search around to find answers.

  • How do I delete photos and photo albums from my iPhone? The instructions given do not work. No "delete" symbol appears next to the album name, and no trash can icon appears below most of the pictures the computer just put on my new iPhone 4.

    How do I delete photos and photo albums from my iPhone 4? The instructions given do not work. No "delete" symbol appears next to the album name when I press "Edit," and no trash can icon for me to click appears below most of the individual photos in the albums the computer just loaded on my new iPhone 4. When I synced the new phone the computer added these photo albums without permission from me. They are now taking up about 3 GB of memory on my phone. I would like very much to get rid of these photos from the phone. How do I do this?

    To delete photos from your device
    In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Sync photos from."
    On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
    On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Click Apply.
