Music app not working at all

Hi,
A little back story as of how this happened, I recently upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS8 and found out that it was rather laggy on this outdated device, thus, i decided to downgrade back to iOS7.1.2 using a IPSW restore. Thereafter, my apps, contacts, remotely everything was gone when my device booted up from the restoration. I manually downloaded my apps back, iCloud seemed to get my contacts back, but whenever i open my music app, it's always at the album tab and when i attempt to access the 'songs' tab, it just crashes automatically. Tried hard resetting the phone, restarting and what not, it all did not work at all. Also, it is notable that after my restoration back to iOS7.1.2, i could no longer sync my phone to my laptop, with errors like 'syncing cannot be finished because session cannot be finished' Everything is working fine except for the sycning issue and that my music isn't working at all.

You restored it?
From backup?
Or as new?
Try both.

  • Ios8 update music app not working

    music app not working after ios8 update

    I wanted to add something here that may or may not be accurate, since I was suffering the exact same issues (on an iPhone 6+, and replicated on an iPhone 5 patched to 8.0) you were describing Nick. In an effort to trouble shoot this I picked up one of the third party tools that allows you onto the iOS device file system. I've been trying since Friday night to reproduce the conditions that cause the issue but haven't quite narrowed it down. Including this here in case the Engineers are poking around in the discussion boards and are trying to reproduce this.
    This is an iPhone 6+ running 8.0 (12A366) connecting physically to iTunes 11.4 on a MBP running 10.9.5 (13F34; fully patched).
    Here's what I did last night and this seems to have worked (meaning, I can sync music now without issue at least for syncs this morning; will confirm tonight by syncing again):
    Turned off iTunes Match on the iTunes library I am syncing from
    Unchecked all non-AAC music files (Apple lossless and MPEG audio both; these were just flat out refusing to copy over, claiming to have copied but coming up with the exclamation point when accessed on the device via iTunes; none of these lossless or mp3 files have been an issue in any previous version of iOS, meaning they are all of the correct sample and bitrate to be used and can sync to other devices in the household running iOS 7)
    Removed all music from the iOS device (by deselecting music syncing)
    Hard rebooted the iOS device after disconnecting it; rebooted the iTunes library host
    Reconnected the iOS device and fired up the third party app (this is the part I do not recommend, but I was eager to try to figure out what the root cause was)
    Removed the iTunes library files on iOS (this is something I had done between other factory resets earlier to force the iOS device to rebuild the library; to rule out library corruption)
    Removed any "music" folders remaining on the iOS device (this is also something I had done a few times which had had no effect)
    Removed any saved artwork (this was something I had not done before, but I too had noticed a strange correlation between it stopping working and the artwork being synced)
    Disconnected and rebooted the iOS device again (forcing a recreation of the iTunes library database files)
    Reconnected the device and started syncing small playlists (50-100 songs). In increments it all seems to be syncing up now without issue
    The two new steps this time around that seem, at least at initial glance, to have solved the problem are stopping syncing any non-AAC music media files and the deletion of the existing artwork folders on the iOS device. Syncing appears to be working, even after disconnecting and reconnecting the device.

    you mentioned that Terminal does not work at all for your MacBook Pro. What currently happens when you run Terminal? In what way does it not work?

  • Music App Not Working -- iTunes Match

    I have been having trouble with the Music App on my iPhone 4S ever since I enabled iTunes Match when it became publicly available. I am running iOS 5.0.1 and here is a description of the problem:
    When I play a Smart Playlist that I had developed before adopting iTunes Match, sometimes the downloaded songs (i.e., no iCloud icon) will play and sometimes they will not play. For example, this morning during my workout, the music played flawlessly for about 45 minutes and then for some unseen reason stopped playing. Additionally, sometimes when the songs do play, the wrong Artwork, Artist, and/or Song displays (i.e., different from what's actually playing.
    Here are some of the different things I've tried to isolate whatever variable might be causing the problem:
    Deleting the Music App from the Multitasking memory.
    Restarting the iPhone (i.e., powering off with Sleep button and turning back on).
    Disabling iTunes Match on the phone.
    Playing songs from the Songs area instead of from the Smart Playlist
    Not using shuffle
    Hard restart (i.e., holding Home and Sleep button simultaneously and powering phone back on).
    None of these attempts has solved the problem, insofar as I can tell.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, how can this be fixed?
    My next step is to sync my iPhone via USB and wipe all of the music off and discontinue using iTunes Match on my iPhone and just sync the playlists I want from time-to-time. :-/

    I feel your pain. I'm having a ton of issues with iTunes Match also. It happens on both my iPad 2 and iPhone 4, but is more frequent on my iPhone. I download a bunch of music from the cloud and it works for a few days, but then it will randomly do as you describe. It says that it's "playing" but does nothing at all. Even if I skip a track and try again but nothing happens. It may later play the tracks on another day (I didn't do anything differently). Other times it just skips over a few songs acting like its not even on the phone.
    I've deleted my library and redownloaded more times that I can count. I'm pretty frustrated and I hope that apple fixes this soon! I can understand why you want to revert back to the old way of syncing your music, however I would really rather have the product (that I've paid for) work as advertised. Anyways, if I can't get it up and running again later this weekend I'll revert back to the old way also seeing how I can't even listen to music on my device anyways.

  • Music app not working

    The shuttle function constantly scans without playing. I have the most recent OS update,

    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • HT2693 Downloaded the piano keyboard app and will not work at all...also no sound.  This app only.    Refund??

    I downloaded the piano keyboard app....will not work at all....the screen comes up but no a tigon when trying to use...also no sound.

    Try a couple of basic troubleshooting steps,
    Quit the app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Delete the app and reinstall. You will not have to pay for it again as long as you use the same Apple ID that you bought it with. Hold down on the icon until it jiggles, then tap the X on the icon to delete the app. Tap the home button to stop the apps from jiggling. Go back to the App Store purchased tab and download the app again.

  • Screen rotation not working with all apps

    My auto rotation does not work for all applications, sometimes it rotates other timed it does not. It happened after the last update

    My first suggestion is to hard reboot the device by holding down the off button and the home button till the screen turns off then just the device back on.
    If that dose not work I would suggest updating to iOS 7 if you can and then also ensure that the app is up to date.
    If all else fails try reinstalling the app.
    Hope this helps

  • TS3694 I performed an iOS 7 software update on my iPhone yesterday, and now the phone is not working at all. The iPhone screen shows to connect to iTunes to restore. I've have done this, and still the iPhone is not working. What going on?

    I have no idea what may have caused your MacBook to stop working, but from your description it kind of sounds like it may have started before you ran Software Update and installed the new Apps. Just the general slow feeling and bugginess is what tips me off. You said that you weren't sure if you had closed all open windows, that doesn't matter if the computer restarts itself. It automatically closes all other open applications when restarting.
    As to your data being retrievable, if when you take it in they do a fresh install of the OS, then no, it will not be unless you want to pay several thousand dollars to a software retrieval company.
    I am glad to hear that you have taken into the Apple Store to get it fixed, and that you have all of your purchased music backed up to your iPod. You should be able to just transfer it all back to iTunes once you get your computer back should it be necessary.
    As a side note, the proper place for this topic would probably in the MacBook forums, not iTunes since there is no evidence that iTunes started the issue.

  • Music app stopped working

    My Music app stopped working yesterday in the middle of a podcast. The screen was frozen, although the scroll of the title at the top continued. I had to unplug the earbuds to pause the podcast, but since then, I haven't been able to get another podcast/song to start, and the screen is frozen on the podcast that it was on yesterday. All the other apps on my iTouch work fine. I'm on OS5.I was plugged in to a power source at work (not my PC) when it happened, but I've synced since then, and it's still locked up. Help!
    Bobby

    I am able to play podcasts directly from the iTunes app, it's just the music app that's locked up.

  • Oracle EPM Planning 11.1.2.1 - Ziplogs utility not working on all servers

    Oracle EPM Planning 11.1.2.1 - Ziplogs utility not working on all servers
    We have Planning 11.1.2.1 distributed so that Planning web app, EAS etc. are on own webservers and Essbase is on separate cluster.
    Currently we have an issue with ziplogs utility - it seems to work on Essbase servers gathering all necessary ODL logs for over 100MBs, but on Planning Webservers ziplogs utility seems to start, but generates only empty 1kb zip file without any content.
    We haven't touched logging otherwise, everything should be pretty much in original state.
    Unfortunately I can't remember now exactly, but I have a a hunch that ziplogs utility worked prior patching Planning element on webservers to 11.1.2.1.600.
    Other servers or elements haven't been patched (although Oracle recommends also FS, EB etc. to be patched to 11.1.2.1.600). I'm wondering, could this be the reason as in a way FS and EB are on same patching level whereas Planning is not?
    Also, there seems to be a bit of limited diskspace on webservers (still waiting for extension), but I would imagine lack of diskspace for preparing any temp files etc. would results in some errors, the problem is that ziplogs doesn't give any errors, just runs very short time and then ends bringing 1kb empty file.
    Has anyone experienced anything similar and are you perhaps able to give quick guidance how to enhance or modify ziplogs batch file etc. to make it create a bit of logging of its own actions?
    Thanks in advance if anyone has ideas what could be the root cause for this or faced something similar.

    Okay, I was able to get it installed and Common Components installed correctly this time. I still can't access workspace though.
    Is there something I need to do before I can browse to http://localhost:19000/workspace/index.jsp?
    All I get is the following error:
    Error 404--Not Found
    From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
    10.4.5 404 Not Found
    The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent.
    If the server does not wish to make this information available to the client, the status code 403 (Forbidden) can be used instead. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address.
    Anyone know what's going on?
