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.

Itunes Match makes Music App stop working on iPhone 4

I've had iTunes Match for about a month and my iPhone 4 music app has been sluggish throughout. Today when I tried to play any music on the phone it refused, I can't play anything. I pick an album, press play and nothing happens - it just stays stuck on zero minutes of the song. So I've had to turn iTunes Match off. It's very disappointing.
I should add that I have a friend who has an iPhone 4S and he has no sluggishness problems, perhaps the iPhone 4 can't handle Match?

I've just discovered my Mac has accumulated 56 crash reports for the Music App this year! I have an iPhone 4 and the iTunes Match service makes the whole phone sluggish.
Did you ever find a solution?

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.

Music controls stopped working after I updated iOS7

As soon as I updated (iOS7) to my phone, my music controls stopped working. On the lock screen and in music app, I can’t change volume. Control button looks like lock and when I touch it, volume doesn't want to change. It’s not about my iphone speakers because my phone can ring. I already tryed to reset my phone and still nothing better.

This is happening with my iPad mini too. I bought last week, and it have already come with iOs 7, and the music controls on the lock screen had been working normally but since two days ago it stopped working the play button, favorites and next song button, only the volume is working yet. If anybody know something, let us know. Tell us what you will do cathconst. Thanks. :/

Mail app stopped working after upgrade to Mavericks

Dear All,
I have updated from Mountain Lion (Macbook Pro 3,1, 256SSD) to Mavericks, and mail app stopped working.
That means - when I click the icon - the app does not work.
I can see that it downloads mail - as when I click it I receive notifcation that it has downloaded some mail, however I cannot open window. Sometimes I manage to open it, but it is totally unresponsive - I cannot change or click anything in it.
I have tried repairing disk permissions but without any success.
Moreover if I run mail app and try to click "new message" from the top bar, the window that appears is somewhat mixed with my wallpaper backround (I can see fragments of it).
Please help me, as I had there a few gigs of precious mails that I don't want to lose...
Thank you in advance!

Do a backup.
Take notes of all account information or take screen shots. You may need to set the accounts up again. Quit Mail.
Copy the line below.
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Select Go/Go To Folder from the Finder menu bar. Paste the line into the window. You won’t see it.
Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
Relaunch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.
Information learned from Linc Davis.
If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
Show User Library Directory in Mac OS X 10.7 Lion & 10.8 Mountain Lion
You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after every update. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

My email app. stopped working. It doesn't open any accounts

My email app. stopped working. It doesn't open any accounts. It used to but just opens up a blank screen. Any suggestions?
Also Safari doesn't open up anything either, but used to.

try restarting the app
Normally double tap the 'home' button
all the active apps will pop up at the bottom
hold an app
once the '-' symbol appears release then find the 'hung' apps by scrolling and click the '-' symbol
click the home key
then click on mail/safari and see if that helps

Unfortunately, this is not an unfamiliar problem on Windows 7. Did this occur after a recent Windows update?

Apps Stopped Working and go back to the home page

Today suddenly my apps stopped working. When i would press them it would come up for a few secs and then go back to the home page. So i deleted all my apps on my ipod and figured i can dl again from my itunes. When i tried syncing the apps i got the msg: Some apps(all of them) were not synced because this computer is not authorized blah blah. I can Sync my songs/photos/vids fine. Can anyone help?

From the message you need to authorize the computer for the account that purchased the apps. See:
About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization
ALso make sure the iPod is also sign into that account.
You can also redownload the apps directly to the iPod if you have iOS 4.3 or later, see:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Search widget/app stopped working

Nokia 700 / belle 111.030.0609
Search widget/app stopped working.
It just crushes now.
Worked fine before software upgrade.
reinstalling software doesn't help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hey Alexander_S
How are you doing today?
Remove the application, connect the device to Nokia suite, go to 'my stuff' where you'll find all your previously installed applications.
Select the one you want and install.
Please let us know if you require further assistance.

Nokia music player stopped working

I have a Nokia 5500 sport and I have recently put a 2 Gb micro SD card in it. Before I had a 1 Gb micro SD and everything worked just fine. But since I put in the bigger card the music player stopped working. It just closes and does not start up.
If I look up the music files in the phones exporer I can start the music from their but I cant enter the library from the music player. Whats wrong? I tried to remove the memory card and then it worked. Is a 2 Gb micro SD card too big for the phone?

Ahh Finally working

IPhone 4 Apps stop working after sync

Everytime I sync my I phone my downloaded apps will not open. I can correct this by downloading another App but that is a pain. I want to be able to sync my iPhone and not have my app stop working.

I've just noticed the 'more like this' section on the right with similar problems and it appears to be a common problem with iTunes not being authorised so I have now done that and hopefully it'll be fine now. I just opened iTunes then went to store-authorise this computer.

All third party apps stopped working (crash at launch)

Ok, so there's a BUNCH of people having the exact same problem as I do (search this forum or Google with the title of this post). And I'm posting this in iPad but it does happen on iPhone too. Summary :
Often after an iOS update (but not always) third party apps stop working. When started, they flash open and then just quit.
Apple built-in apps keep working fine.
NOTHING solves the problem : hard reboot (home+power until reboot), deinstall+reinstall one/all apps, restore the iPhone/iPad, buy a new (free) app from the store to "reset" software authorization, de/reauthorize computer, reset password from app store account, deinstall app and then reinstall using the iPad directly (not via iTunes), etc.
I have one iPhone 4 and one iPad with this issue.
Oddly enough, on the iPad, only apps that have recently been UPDATED crash. Apps that were present and left alone on the device keep working. On the iPhone, there was an iOS update so everthing was reinstalled and therefore doesn't work anymore.
Strangest thing : reset the device to make sure nithing is open in the background, launch an app, app crashes and returns to springboard, double click "home" and... tadaam, the crashed app is in the list of open apps. On the iPad, 4-finger slide does even go to that app's screen (which is pitch black).
As I said, 30 minutes of googling revealed at least 50 identical cases. All seem related to iOS 5.1. My iPhone rune iOS 5.1.1 (that was the upgrade) and my iPad runs iOS 5.1 and I'm NOT doing the update until I can solve this crazy thing.
Please, all, HELP !
Thanks in advance.

Please, Alan, I know my message might be a bit long, but do read it! I DID try that and absolutely everything else that was mentionned in the other posts about this subject. Nothing works. And it doesn't work for the others either, not just me.
The only thing I can think of right now is to put the iDevice in DFU then make a clean install and configure it as a new iThingy. This looses all stored data and config so it's a pain in the a... and I won't try it unless I'm pretty sure nothing else can be done. And I'm not entirely sre it'll work, either…

Reminders app stopped working

iPhone 5 (GSM) on iOS 8.3.
I noticed that my Reminders app wasn't syncing with iCloud via wifi or LTE, so I turned off/on the setting in iCloud. The app stopped working at all after that. When I open the app, nothing shows up at all, not even a default list. When I try to use Siri to remind me, Siri will say that the reminder cannot be made.
I tried restoring iOS then restoring the backup, same thing still happened.

Hello gotlactose,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPhone. If you continue to have issues with Reminders either launching or syncing, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:
