IPad Music App in IOS 7 is such a crap, When you gonna update it ?

Guys Guys Guys, What happened to you ?
Since the ios7 1st update am Waiting for Music app to be updated. I liked iphone music app, and i thought i could get in my ipad also but sad !
since that day am waiting for music app update. In real words you guys f****d up the MUsic app. you should have make it better than iOS 6 but its such a crap i cant even think of opening it.
There are no any major Pros if you guys compare it with iOS 6 Music app and Cons are First of all App is not Good in Looks Second, there were no need to show album art in Songs List & Third, it could not show Now Playing screen when you tap on album art such as in Itunes desktop app.
Guys if you Cannot update the app then Please give us iOS 6 Music app back.

Agreed!!
The new Music app in iOS7 is horrible. Reduced functionality and the functionality that is there doesn't make intuitive sense.
My main issues/corrections:
1) Give the user an option to display, or not display, the large album art beside the Artist listing. The large album art beside each Artist takes up too much room and conveys no useful information.
2) Within each Artist allow the user to select a listing of the albums (as in iOS6). Scrolling through albums does not make sense. Allow the user to select from a list!
3) Within each Artist allow the user to sort the albums alphabetically. Sort the albums by title NOT date! Why sorting albums by date?
4) Within each Artist replace the selection to play all songs (as in iOS6). In iOS7 only option is to shuffle play the songs.
As it stands now in iOS7 the Music app has reduced functionality and is a horrible experience for the user.

Problems with iPad Music App in iOS 5

In iOS5 on my original iPad, the Music app is much more difficult to use. Right now a song is playing but I have a mostly black screen and no clear way to make the album art or lists of music visible. Any suggestions? I liked the iPod app before; this seems a major step backward.

Yes, this is how I usually do it as well, however it doesn't always behave as expected when I do what you describe in the last sentence. Instead of flipping to the white song list, it remains black and blank. The tiny album in the progress bar disappears as does the progress bar itself, however music continues to play. The buttons at the very bottom all cease to function. Only REW, PLAY/PAUSE, FWD and the volume function. Leaving the app and coming back doesn't clear it up. I have to hit the home button and then force quit the app in order to regain control. Here's a screen grab of what it looks like. Truly odd.

IPad music app does not show track artists in compilations

Hello community,
i have a problem with my iPad's music app. When browsing compilations, it does not show the artist of each track like my iPhone does. Both devices are sync'ed with the same iTunes library, and the 'Part of a compilation' flag is set correctly to the corresponding tracks.
Please let me illustrate the problem with a few screenshots.
The iPhone shows this compilation correctly as 'Various Artists' and thus displays the track's artists in each line below:
In contrast, the iPad's music app does not seem to identify the compilation correctly. The artist is not shown as "Various Artists" like on the iPhone, but the artists of the first track is wrongly used instead. Furthermore, the artist of each track is not shown in the list on the right side:
The setting "Sort album by artist" is turned on on both devices.
Any ideas what could be wrong?
Thank you!

It's not you, it's the iPad's iOS. The Music app in iOS 5 for the iPad is horrendous with several UI fails:
- No category for Compilations
- Incorrect/ Missing Artist for Compilations
- No lyrics
- No indication of track number within a group of tracks (e.g. "18 of 37")
- Sporadic indication of which track is playing while looking at a list
Hopefully these things get corrected in iOS 6, but for now you'll have to bear with it. You can voice your concern here:

Hi lukeshk,
If I understand correctly and you're having trouble accessing the iTunes Store in iOS 7 on your iPad, I would recommend this article of troubleshooting:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
I'd also suggest running through these:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
iOS: Force an app to close

Remote app in combination with ipad music app

Hi
Can i stream music from itunes to my ipad with the remote app
In fact i'm looking for an app from which i can remote control itunes on my mac mini
and stream music to my ipad, using the same library or shared library and same app
During music discovery nights with a friend
I want to prelisten to the music with the ipad
And after the correct selection i have to swith to the remote app to play the selected song on my mac mini
I constantly have to switch between remote app and ipad music app
Which is very annoying because
- remote app looses his connection after every switch between the 2 apps
- i then have to go through the complete music library again till i have the track that i wanted to play
- and many more
Also that music app has changed since a while and doesnt offer me the same comfort scrolling through my music
I recently discovered plex and its ios app
In that app we can click on the track we need and it gives me the choice to play it on the mac mini or the ipad
Which is a really cool feature
But, ..., it doesnt have any search possibilities
In every app i tried there is always something missing to make it raeaeaeaellllllyyy eaeaeaeassssyyyyy
Isnt that what technology is supposed to offer us, make ite easy and confortable
Grrrrr
I googled for a while about it
Found no defenitive answers yet

How I wish that the Music App on my iPad could work as fast and as sleek as the Remote App when connecting to my (VERY LARGE) Library.
Even with version 1.0, every time I had to connect to my Library, the response time was just a few seconds before I can see and scroll thru my Albums/Artists/etc (with Album Art and all).
With the Music App, I haven't being able to connect to my shared library since iOS 4.0 :-( And the limited times when successfully connected the response time was JUST awful.
Please 'Remote App Team' have a beer or two with the 'Music App Team' and share your expertise with them!!! I'm begging you!!! Or at least 'tweak' your App so it can stream the music to the iPad, so we can enjoy our shared libraries on it.
Today... After updating to iTunes 11, I ( 've ?) tried to connect the Music App to my Library via Home Sharing without success. So.. Again.. Please Apple, DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!!
Thanks!!!

Ios 6 music app on ios 7 (to fix genre issue)

I am no longer able to drill down from genre to artists songs in the genre and their albums with songs in that genre. Apple has told me that is by design. So I have lost that ability and some others here have said the same thing.
Is there a way to find and use the ios 6 music app under ios 7 somehow? Else, I need to find a 3rd party app that will play the existing music (I don't want to download anything outside of itunes) and allow me to drill down from genre as ios 6's music app allowed me to do.
Any suggestions (incl. possible apps if I can't use ios 6 music app)?

I use, by the way, the windows app Tag & Rename. Have been using it for years and highly recommend it if you are on the windows platform. In order to get things to work properly I had to change tags in two ways for ios 7: (1) copy all my artist fields to album artists fields and (2) (unfortunately) pull out the data in the year field (which I moved to the comment field) since ios 7 now sorts by the year field as well.
That got the ios 7 music player to final list the stuff properly - at least as I drilled down from genre. Still, the interface was at a minimum "wanting". I found an inexpensive (not free) app - I think it was something like $3.99. It was written and supported by two programmers - a 18 and 21 year old. Still the interface is relatively clean and the gestures once learned make things easy to find out and change with a single finger - check it out: "Ecoute". It does the job for me much better then ios 7's.
My only complaint is since I do not have album art or any other art associated with music as I am a composer and write my own material - I end up with 5 rows and 3 columns of icons with default icons. But even that has an 'option' as you can get a textual list by taping on the top. If you are at genres and the artist is showing, tapping on the top will list all the tracks in alphabetical order with times for that artist. If the albums are showing in the screen - tapping on the artist on the top will display all the tracks in alphabetical order with a line below them describing the album name. And when you tap just on the album icon, you get just a list of the tracks.
Some other cool tapping and swiping actions.... easy to learn...

Is ther a way to quickly delete whole albums in the music app in iOS 7?

I often download new music and need to remove old music to make space. I use Match, so I almost never sync with a computer these days, and even when I do I don't manage my music that way. The music app in iOS 7 seems to have no way to delete albums, just individual songs. This is very tedious when I want to remove one album and replace it with another album. Happily, I can still download a whole album with one tap. Has anyone found the secret to deleting albums?

it looks like they took out the "Show" option under Mail settings completely and added a Flag choice instead. Don't know why.

IPad Music app crashes while trying to choose my shared Mac music library

IPad Music app crashes while trying to choose my shared Mac music library. Only a few of the artists show up and if I try a search, the App crashes.

Thanks. This got all of the artists to show up but the music app still crashes when I search the shared music library.

The ipad music app does not allow me to play certain tracks that i have synced via my itunes. The tracks are clearly visibly in the music app but when tap on them to play they wont play. help and advice will be much appreciated

Agree about the disaster part. I haven't found a fix within iTunes.
I gave up and switched to downcast 2 days ago. Even though it was a hassle to re-subscribe to all my podcasts, im so much happier.
To make switching easier, I found that in iTunes you can "get info" on the podcast and copy the RSS address to the clipboard. Put all of these in a message note. When iCloud syncs the note to your phone, you can copy and paste the urls into downcast one at a time to subscribe.
Downcast has crashed on me occassionally when I'm subscribing to feeds, but so far it has recovered gracefully each time and no data was lost.

How do you delete albums from the music app in iOS 7?

You use to be able to in the last IOS and it was a nice feature and now it's gone. iOS7 ruined the Music App!

Thank you for your responses.. To Sjazbec, At least you guys in Germany and the Netherlands have some kind of posters from Apple to let you know that the feature is not available.
There is no such warning on the Irish Apple site.!
My point was that, I would not have even considered trying to reorganize my itunes library had I known that the feature is not available in Ireland.
And that falls into the domain of Apple Ireland advertising.. which I"m sorry to say is false and misleading.
There are no "posters" telling the Irish customer that icloud / itunes music is not available!
I"m not blaming Apple for not "having the feature" in Ireland.. I am upset at them for falsing advertising a feature that they cannot for whatever reason deliver to Irish customers..
To Keats 2010 LOL... Trust me there were lots of clouds in Ireland today!.. It's a long time since we've seen the sun!.. As for getting your head around the basics.. I could talk you through everything that doesn't work in Ireland if it's any help lol

How do I enable the passbook app in ios 6. Nothing happens when I click on it.

Yes, you do need an antivirus app for iOS. However, they don't currently exist because Apple refuses to make their 'proprietary' technical OS specifics freely available as open source code or to any Antivirus companies, who could examine and potentially identify security holes. Many security problems have been identified by Apple and fixed as part of iOS updates in the past (details are readily available in the iOS update information) and this will likely be a bigger problem in the future as malware authors move toward the technology leader as a target. But right now you can't get an antivirus app for iOS which scans the iOS device wholesale. This is despite the fact that (legitimate) apps are available which can take control of the entire device, install apps, wipe them or the device, view information, etc (for example Sophos Mobile Control). SMC can be installed by tapping an email link to a website and then tapping 'OK' to a couple of dialogues.

Thanks for all (Ocean20 & Courcoul) who replied.
Reset the device did not help me but it does triggers me to attempt to resend the PDF file attachment on email--and it works the 2nd time. My problem is now solved.
The Adobe Reader is very helpful--it allows me to scroll through the document easily, unlike iBooks, where I cannot scroll straight up or down.

Downloaded music apps o.k. Says login failed when I put in user and password. No trouble when getting any other apps.

Sounds like you may have deleted something you shouldn't have. Boot to an OS X DVD or a bootable backup, and using Disk Utility, do a repair disk, and while there repair permissions. Disconnect any peripherals, and reboot. If you get the same startup behavior, do a safe boot, by holding the shift key down when booting. If that works, try a normal boot. If neither step helps, you may need to relaod your operating system.

Is anyone having problems playing music on their iPhone? At times, particularly when you've got headphones in songs sound like a badly scratched CD, continually skipping in various sections of the song. Problem occured post-IOS 5 update.
