Music App Problems iOS7

I am not having problems syncing music with iOS7, however I am having other issues.
For example, the app OFTEN crashes and freezes. This is a native app, should not be having this issue.
Also, why did they take away the feature where double tapping the home button brings up the music controls? Can I bring that back?

Double tap the home button and close out all the "cards" you have open by swiping them up. Make sure you don't have any apps left open. Tap the home button again when your done or just tap on the screen that's left (that can't be closed) now open the music app again it should not crash now. To pull up music controls slide from the very bottom of your screen upward this will bring control center where you can control your music player from any screen (actually better if you ask me) just have to get used to it. Hope that helps. If it doesn't I would consider doing a back up and restore by connecting your phone to iTunes and following the instructions under restore iPhone.

Album View and Composer Tab on Music App on IOS7

The new Music App is not exactly brilliant...
There are several things what drive me "crazy":
1. The new Album View doesn't sort the albums alphabetically according the album artist, but by the name of the Album - the former cover flow did that and in itunes you can choose how you do it. Why can't you choose that in IOS7?
2. You selected a omposer - you go back to the composer list and select another composer - the music app on IOS 7 doesn't show the list of the songs by the new composer, but a mixture of the first selected and the selected composer... (that doesn't happen all the time, but very often) - when I go back to the composer list and select another composer I don't want to see a mixture.
3. Why are the Musicvideos shown in the Album view shown, too? I would start them via the vide app - how can I get them out of the album view?

See also this thread with same problem. Looks like a bug wrt. composer/album.

Music app problem's in ios6? i can't see a few artists in the list.

Hi guys, i update my iPhone 4s yesterday from 5.1.1 to 6, everytime i sent a new music from iTunes to iPhone, in the artists list, doens't show any artist i have, if i goes to the songs list, all my musics appears, btw in the artists no, i just want to know if this problem is with me only, or anyone more is facing the same problem.
thanks

Same thing with my iPhone 5 music app. It kinda just "shuffles" really fast and not play anything. It goes through all the songs in all the albums really fast...but you can't hear anything.
I tried restarting the app AND the phone (several times) and I have checked that the shake thing is off.
What's happening?? I might have to go to the genius bar again *sigh*

Music app problems iOS 8.2

I'd thought I would post this, but my music app was perfectly fine till I upgraded to iOS 8.2. I can't figure this one out, because it's still bugging me. But whenever I restored my iPod touch 5g, some of the music artists on certain songs would have different names or will have a featuring artist added on for no reason.
Example:
                    Taio Cruz & Travie McCoy - Higher (as listed on the store and iTunes playlist)
                    Taio Cruz - Higher (as listed on iPod)
I don't know what's going on here, but I never edited the changes. As it's showing up different on my iPod. Does it have something to do with iCloud or is it a glitch? If anyone else is experiencing this problem, please reply below.
Thanks!
P.S. - I've restored it six times and the problem is still there. And noticed it on my iPhone as well...

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Manage Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Music app problems in iOS 7

how to extend the space for 'files names' column in 'songs' tab of Music app?
i am so disappointed in iOS7's music app. there are tabs for Artists & Albums in music app, there is no need to allocate artist and album columns in 'Songs' or 'Playlists' Tabs. I CAN NOT READ MY FILES NAMES COMPLETELY BECAUSE THE FILE NAME'S COLUMN IS SO SMALL.
PLEASE TELL ME IS THERE ANY WAY TO REMOVE ARTIST AND ALBUM COLUMNS??

I whole heartedly agree with the other comments here, the search function has been hidden, frustrating, when it used to sit in the bottom right corner where it was easy to access. Every view is list, with a library of 8000 songs, that is a lot of scrolling, it also denies me the joy of quickly scanning a grid view, much as you would do in a record store (I am old enough to remember those) and find that gem in my collection that I haven't heard in a while. The genius button again has been hidden behind a create option, ok it is there, but why hide it.
The overly asthetics are fine, not knock my socks fantastic, just fine.
Please apple if you read these comments, please add back some of the features you have taken away with this update.

IOS 8.1 screen rotation in music app problem

I'm currently experiencing a problem with my music app on the iPhone 6. Whenever I open the music app and rotate it into landscape mode, the screen switches off but when I rotate it back to portrait it comes on again.How do I solve this? On iPhone 6

I have rebooted the iPhone 5 and initially things seem to be fine. But then after a while if as I say, you disconnect the headphones or some other disruption occurs to the music the play/pause button in the command centre does not work. If you the go back to your list of tracks the little graphic equaliser icon is working indicating the track is playing, but it is not!
I wasted a couple of hours yesterday thinking some work I was doing on my bike was faulty but I then tried it with an ipad on the last version of iOS and that works fine, the music resuming normally after a nav instruction interruption.

Why is Podcast missing from the Music App. in iOS7

I'm dissapointed on the fact that Podcasts are no longer supported by iOS7's music app.
I used it on a daily basis and its hard for me to believe that Apple purposely made this change. I hope this is just an error which can be acceptable and hopefully fixed soon.
Apple..... I hope you're listening...

Which is a horrible app that shows every **** podcast you subsctribe to, whether or not you have a new episode, and doesn't let you arrange them properly to only show unplayed episodes. It's also a completely needless app since the Music app handles podcasts just fine.

Music App Problems - iPhone 4

Hey I have an iPhone 4 and I've been having a few problems with the music app (possibly my iPhone as well):
1. Freezes when using coverflow - When I rotate my iPhone to enter coverflow I have to be really slow with it. It will crash and my screen will go blank and the little white wheel will appear in the center of the screen. And when I want to stop using coverflow and rotate back, the album cover will freeze and the music app will crash. But if it somehow doesn't crash in the process, I'm still not able to push pause or control the volume at all so I would have to exit the app completely.
2. While playing music my entire iPhone seems to lag. When I try to look through my phone while playing music, the screen seems to freeze at points or lag or when I hit the next button to skip a song it will take like 10 seconds to change the song. Also when I try to slide my finger to fast forward through a song it may take a while.
3. The next issue I have is with the Music App is when I have it docked on a speaker system. (This problem is a little hard to explain, but I will do my best) On the Beatbox by Dr.Dre is states in the manual that when my iPhone is docked, it should display the volume slider so I can see how loud it is. So when I have my iPhone docked onto my Beatbox By Dr.Dre I have to be really gentle. If the music is really loud and there is a lot of bass then the music will suddenly stop/pause and the volume slider will disappear. But if I were to hit play again and the keep the volume the same it will pause/stop again and a notification pops up saying that "this accessory is not compatible with the iPhone" and then the volume slider will re-appear and then the music will start coming out of my iPhone speaker instead. Even when I barely touch my iPhone 4 while it is docked, the music will stop. My brother has the same iPhone as me but in white and he does not have any signs of this problem when he uses his phone on the Beatbox. I know it can't be the dock connector on my iPhone because it works perfectly fine when I dock it on other speakers or connected to my Macbook and it can't be the Beatbox because my bother's iPhone works perfectly on it. I'm assuming it has to the Music App itself.
I have tried resetting my iPhone 4 and restoring it countless times. I have turned off the Sound Check and Volume Limit on my settings but I still have these problems. What should I do?

I have had this exact same problem? I really don't know how to fix it! :'(

Music App Problem

Hey guys, I've got an annoying problem with my music app. It shows the songs that I've previously bought through iTunes and I don't want them on my phone. I think it's being shown through iCloud, but I don't have iCloud set up to back up my muisc. I've tried swiping to delete them and the delete option doesn't pop up, and the songs don't show up when I plug my phone into iTunes. A little background info - iPhone 4, iOS 7.0.2, almost two years old. If someone could help me with this I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi Volcoman,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The variable that has changed with iOS 7 is the "Show All Music" option in Settings > iTunes & App Store. This feature displays your iTunes in the Cloud purchases on your device (while they are not locally stored). You can identify these by the "cloud download" icon on the right. To hide your iTunes in the Cloud purchases, disable this feature in Settings > iTunes & App Store.
For more information, please see page 63 of the iPhone User Guide for iOS 7

The Music App in iOS7 is an annoying step back - Why?

As a whole, I appreciate the design and functionality changes within iOS7. It's breathed new life into the OS, given people something new to explore and talk about.
But Apple seem to have lost their way when it comes to the basics of playing some music on an iPhone. It's become fiddly, complicated, fragmented and regressed - iOS6 had the right balance
Why? Well, based on personal experience and comments made by colleagues, friends etc, the most regular complaints are..
-- Why have users been forced to listen to podcasts in the separate app? Apple - not everyone listens to spoken word podcasts. We listen to music mixes etc.. Having those mixes in the SAME PLACE as our other music makes it a more seamless experience. Switching apps is a ball-ache
-- Why can't we delete entire Albums in one swipe any more? Track by track, is again, a ballache
-- The controls to scrub through tracks are tiny and barely usable. iOS6 allowed you to scrub and see the slider under your finger - now you have a tiny red line that leads to inaccurate movement thru tracks
-- Music control while the phone is locked is very very frustrating in iOS7 in a few ways...
1) iOS6 - you could double click the home button, the controls (large) would appear on screen. You could hit play and instantly listen to some shuffled music. In iOS7 - you have to swipe up,hit play then hope it starts a track (which it doesnt always do)
2) The above isnt too much of an issue when the phone is on a desk in front of you, or in your hand... but when you're using the phone while running, the clunky process is unhelpful and unintuitive. If you use an arm band to hold your iphone while you exercise try dragging the control centre up, selecting the music app and playing a track while you've got a plastic cover over the screen - it's nigh on impossible
3) You cant enter the music app unless there's a track already playing - why isnt Music.app quickly accessible from Control Centre? I'd use that more than a stopwatch
3) There's no indication that a track is playing unless you open control centre. Where has the triangular 'play' icon gone in the taskbar?
-- In Album view, the coverart icons are too large- takes longer to scroll thru a collection of albums, especially as the alphbetical slider on the right hand side of the screen is smaller and omits every other letter
Overall, the app is flawed / too skewed toward the purchase of media via the iTunes store
I doubt very much whether Apple will read this post or listen to customer feedback and deviate from their design vision. Apple regularly claim they identify a customer need and fulfill it - would be good if they were good to their word on this particular aspect of iOS7

Which is a horrible app that shows every **** podcast you subsctribe to, whether or not you have a new episode, and doesn't let you arrange them properly to only show unplayed episodes. It's also a completely needless app since the Music app handles podcasts just fine.

Music library and Music.app problems

Hi, recently I've update to 5.0.1 from 4.1 (clean restore of an iPhone 4). I'm having issues with the music library of the iPhone. I have the "manually manage music" option selected so I can change information of the songs (like the title for example) directly in the iPhone (througth iTunes). But when I try to change the Album in the info tab of the song that is on my iPhone, it doesn't change. I can see the new album on iTunes on my iPhone tab, but in the iPhone, in the music.app, I only see the older album.
I have been reading around here and I've noticed that the music.app in iOS 5 has certain bugs, could this be one of them?
I don't want to restore because I've been days configuring my phone and it's not that big deal...
Also I've noticed, on my girlfriend's iPhone 3G with iOS 3.1.3, with the same options, when I change the album name, on the iPod.app I see: updating library, please wait... or something like that, like the inside music library is being refresh. But it's like I'm unable to do that now. Could be because of the new sync method that allow you to use the phone while syncing?
Sorry for my bad english, it's not my native language.

I did it and nothing. Anyway, you mean before or after the change in iTunes?
Actually the album change worked for a second. I changed one song, and iTunes said "wait while preparing for sync" for a while. Then the text dessapeared, and the album was changed on my music.app. And when I tried to change the other songs, the same text was on iTunes but this time only for something like 3 seconds, with no effect for the iPhone, of course.
What can I do to sync the information correctly?

Music app problems with iPad 2 (iOS 5.1.1)

So lately I've been noticing the music app has been acting up. A while ago I deleted songs directly off of my iPad and then when I plugged it into a computer, the tracks came back but you cannot play them - they're faded, but you can still see all the information and stuff, I don't know if they're taking up memory or not. I know I should just go onto the computer and delete them from there, but it's still annoying. Another thing, sometimes it doesn't let me go to the previous song without putting up a fight. I have to repetitively press previous at least 10 times in a row, very fast in order to go back to just one song. Just a few moments ago, when I clicked on a song it would play a random one, not the one I selected. It did that to every song I selected, and then it suddenly started working correctly again. Lastly, I noticed that I've been missing a few album covers that were once there.
I just want to know if anyone else has been having the same issues at all? Thanks.

I know I should just go onto the computer and delete them from there, but it's still annoying.
You don't have to delete music on your computer to remove music from an iPod, iPhone, or iPad. If you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes and you have Sync Only Checked Songs and Video selected under the Summary tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes, you can uncheck the songs in your iTunes library or in the selected playlist in iTunes that you want removed from the iPad followed by a sync.
Any change after powering your iPad off and on and/or after a reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?
If not and you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes, deselect Sync Music followed by a sync. This should remove all music from your iPad. Follow this by reselecting Sync Music making your selections below followed by another sync to re-transfer the music back to the iPad.

Hi, thanks for your post.
You likely owned another Nokia phone before which was used with your Nokia Music Unlimited subscription. You will have to contact Nokia Care by phone, mail or chat (where available) to have the license transferred to your Lumia. Please be aware that after this is done it may take 5 working days for the transfer to propagate through the system.

Q10 Music app problem.

Hello everybody !
I have been having a problem with my Q10 lately : Since I had it it kept working very well until a few days. To explain a little bit better, I had some sleeves that appeared when I listened to my music (so, the right sleeves) and for a few days it just disappeared. Now, the sleeves that I had are gone, and I don't know why. I like listening to music with the sleeves, without it I found it a little bit dull. The sleeves will appear if I add new music on my phone, but if I delete the music that I had on my phone to put it again on it in order to get back the sleeves it won't work.
What should I do to solve this problem ? Please help me.
Thank you

Please help me !

Music App Problems

I have a Droid X and i loaded a music playlist onto my phone, about 14 songs. I have had no issues until today when i tried to play the songs and it said the player cannot play this music file. I don't know what changed, I had alreadyy downloaded the system update. Can anyone help me with how to fix my problem??

Try doing a soft reset on the device.
To do a soft reset:
Press the Power key.
Touch Power off.
Touch OK.
Press the Power key to power on the device.
Once you power the device back on, go to settings, then applications, then running applications, and make sure the all music applications are closed. You can close an application by pressing the application, and choosing force close.
Then you should be able to play the play list once you re-open the music application, if the problem persist check the music file location, then remove and re-add the music.
