Music player missing!!

After I downloaded the software update that came out over a month ago my default music player disappeared. I thought after this new update it might come back but it hasn't....please help!!!! And no it hasn't moved and it isn't in a different folder

it's my understanding, from what I've read here, that Rogers has adapted to phone's firmware, and effectively replaced the Nokia music player by their own. I don't think there's a way to get that back, unless you resort to some serious phone re-programming.
My Nokia history: 5310 (Sep 2008), 5300 (Jan 2007), 6610 (June 2003), 3310 (2001)

ITunes Content missing from Music Player on iPhone

Certain iTunes content that I sync to my iPhone 4 is present on the device, but missing from certain categories in the Music Player. For example, I have an many albums from the The Rolling Stones, when I search by artist, pull up The Rolling Sones, certain albums are missing, even if I select ALL SONGS they aren't even listed there. I know they are on the device because I can find them by searching by album, or by just doing a general search on the iPhone. This is not just an issue with one artist, it's many. I have done a full restore with no luck. What's the deal, and how can I fix it?
Thanks in advance for any assistance!

If yo are not using a VPN or similar that would locate you in another country:
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.
- Connect to another network
- 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.

Torch 9860 music player icon missing

Hi there.. I have some problems with the music player. After I installed a theme and reboot the phone, I realized that my music player icon was missing. I can't find it in media folder, so I try the universal search, but with no result. It's like it just disappeared. What should I do? Anyone here has the same problem? Waiting for your replies. Thx

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Themes have quite some power...including the ability to hide things from you completely. Given what you describe, that's what I'd deduce is happening...the Theme you installed is hiding those things from you. To find out more, you need to contact the Theme developer. Alternatively, remove the Theme.
Good luck!

Successfully Synced Music Missing In Music Player

Alright, maybe you all can help me, maybe I'm just missing something obvious... Here's my problem:
I'm trying to sync my music to my Sprint Pre using the syncing feature in Windows Media Player. It says I've got 1200 songs and that they all successfully sync. What's more, if I look through the Pre's files through my computer it shows that all the songs are contained in the phone's memory just like they should be.
Problem is, once I open the Pre's music player, only about 350 songs show up. Some albums will only have a portion of their songs, and some albums are missing entirely!
Now I've tried this twice, and both times the music syncs successfully, and both times I double-checked through my computer that the Pre's memory does indeed contain all those music files. Not to mention, after the first time, when I went to delete those 350 songs to start over the computer confirmed that it was deleting 1200 files.
So it seems everything transfers over successfully, and in fact, looking now at my phone's memory, the appropriate amount of space is indeed being used... But most of that music isn't showing up at all.
Is there a file viewer\manager on the phone somewhere that I can't find? Am I missing something completely obvious? Where's all my music? WHAT GIVES?!
Thanks for any help you can give me...

Hello and welcome to the forums;
Media sync from WMP may not be the best option for managing your music. You can just put your phone into USB mode and drag and drop mp3 files to your device just like you were putting them onto a thumb drive. You can put them in any folder, the Pre will see and manage them automatically. If they're already showing there, I would delete the music off of the Pre and then re-add them manually, not syncing through WMP.
Additionally, you could use a program like DoubleTwist to manage your music.
Hope this helps,

Music Player Blues (Bugs + Missing Features)

I've discovered three potential bugs with the music player.
The first is very minor, but would be nice to have fixed: in a playlist, I find that often when one song has an album art but the next in the playlist does not, the player often does not update the album art that is being displayed (that is, it shows the previous song's album art rather than the generic background).
The second problem has caused me much grief - every now and then one of my playlists on the device will get wiped out. It's happened twice now, both with the same playlist. Both times the playlist had 200-300 songs in it.
Third, sometimes the ability to control the music player with the mute button goes away. I've noticed this occurs most commonly after watching a youtube video on the device (even after the browser is closed).
I'd be happy to send any additional information required to get these things fixed ASAP.
If I could suggest a few enhancements for future updates, please consider the following:
-When deleting a song, it would be nice to see on the warning dialog the name of the song you're deleting. A couple times I've held my finger over the wrong song and didn't realize it till it was too late.
-Would also be nice if the music player could be turned into a background app that can be launched from the settings menu.
-There does not appear to be a way to search for a song inside a playlist. This is a must-have feature!

Hi Bizorke,
Thank you for your feedback as we are always looking for ways to improve our products.
In regards to the problems you are having with the Media Player, to better determine the root cause and to gather device event logs to investigate, we would request that you contact your wireless service provider to have this issue escalated to BlackBerry Technical support for further investigation.
Let us know if you have any questions.
Thank you.

How can I stop my iPhone 5 from starting the music player randomly on its own?

I have an iPhone 5 running the latest version of iOS. Sometime last year (maybe shortly after I originally upgraded to iOS 7), the phone developed a nasty habit of starting up the music player during phone conversations when I connected to my Mazda's Bluetooth system. Oddly enough, I can hear the music playing over the phone conversation but the person on the other end of the phone line can't. To stop the music, I have to open the Music App and then close the App. Note that the Music App did NOT have to be previously open for the music to start, and the Music App doesn't usually show as an open App even after the music starts on its own. The problem has persisted through the last few iOS updates and it now happens in a broader range of circumstances (e.g., I have told the iPhone to forget the Mazda adapter, and it now does the same thing with my Plantronics Voyager Bluetooth headset). I usually have to go through this sequence at least twice per Bluetooth pairing session before the phone stops trying to start the music player on its own during phone calls.
The problem went away temporarily when I did a full reset of the phone, but it came back after a few days (even when I added apps & music back without restoring from an iOS backup).
Has anyone found a way to fix this problem once and for all? If I can find a fix, it's enough of an annoyance that it might convince me to go Android with my next phone. Thanks in advance...

I've tried syncing with itunes and icloud. The missing contacts are nowhere to be found. I just re-enter them on my iphone and proceed on my not so merry way. Next time I look for a contact, it might be there or it might not. It is not necessarily the same contact. It appears that my oldest contacts seem to be the ones disappearing

Looking for 'music player' widget to play songs dragged onto iWeb page

Has anyone found a 'music player' widget that can be embedded into an iWeb page, and that can then load and play the songs that have been dragged onto that page?
I have found several such widgets that can scan a URL for mp3 files, and I have successfully embedded each of those widgets into an iWeb page using the HTML Snippet, but none of them could find the mp3 files that I dragged onto the page, even though I supplied the widget with the URL for that page.

Wyodor, I just wanted to let you know that I am having a lot of fun with the WimpyPlayer, and I like the skin you sent me. Thank you so much.
I've been playing around with it. I had to reduce the height of the widget to fit on my webpage, but when I did, the text became too small to read, so instead, I went into the skin's jpeg and cut out the midsection of the playlist area. Then I had to readjust the playlist's number of lines displayed and its slider size to fit. I also changed the color scheme to match my webpage, and some of the Help tags. All in all, it looks great, and I am very happy with it.
The one feature I miss from when I was using iWeb's built-in QuickTime player is the ability to have a photo (such as an album cover) displayed with the music. Do you happen to know of any music players that enable you to attach a photo with each track or album?

Music player problem after 2.3 update

Hi all,
I updated my x10i to 2.3.3. After the update most of my music on sd card was not showing up in the music player. Some of them are, but majority is missing. Every piece of music is ripped with Windows Media player and transferred with PC companion. I can play them if I navigate there with file manager and open manually. Music player plays them, but says "unknown". They were all working fine before the update. How to fix this problem?
BR,
Antti

Unfortunately this appears to be fairly standard across the board from what I have seen in regards to the .wma file extension. What I would advise to get you around this would be to use the MediaGo software to transfer these files back to the handset so that they are converted to a supported format. I apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Music Player Character Support

On my N70, In my old firmware v3.... something when i went on music player it opened straight away and worked fine, now i have updated firmware v 5.0609.2.0.1, when i open music player, it firtly says opening, but then it says 'a processar' which i do not beleive to be english however my phones languge is set to english.
Also certain songs, like "MAXÏMO PARK" the name does not appear correctly, it is shown as Max(square symbol)o Park, this missing the i (with 2 dots) character and the m next to it... there are many songs which have unusual characters like this but the n70s new firmware does not show them, they were shown on my old firmware, but not on v5.0609.2.0.1
could someone at nokia please tell me if a new firmware will b relaesed anytime soon? and if so will it have full character support?

I have N95 (v 12.0.013). Using Croatian characters. They show properly in WMP11 and Nokia Music Manager, but show only empty squares in device player.
Any ideas?

Music player requires title attribute for song nam...

Hi, I just transferred a set of music to my yellow Lumia 920. Some of the song names do not show up in Lumia music player, and i found the reason : for some of the files, the music file uses the attribute "title". For those files, the song name works (it's that "title"). But for some files, the title attribute is empty and there is just file name. For those, the song name does not show up (that is : Lumia does not use the file name as song name, but it requires the "title" attribute).
Now my question : what would be the easiest way to overcome this. Either how to tell Lumia to use file name is title field is missing, or how to fast copy the file name to title field? Or something else.
(I did not use Zune for file transmission but transerred the files by copy&paste method. I've got an old XP computer that do not quite understand modern devices like Lumia...;-)
Thanks!
Ari

I ended up doing it by hand. That is, copy filename to "title" attribute. There are not so many of those files afterall.
Another interesting things that I've discovered during my "iPod => Lumia mp3 migration"
- if I've done my own mp3 albums, all mp3 files should have a same "album artist" value e.g. "various". Othervise, each mp3 with different album artist will appear as a separate album
- disconnect xbox music service. It obviously search for album names etc from xbox, but at least with my music collection it screws everything. It may e.g. divide one album in two parts, each part having different genre.
My favourite music player currenlty is "musicPlayer 8 free", since it allows selecting a genre, and then albums on that genre.

Music Player S^3 artist&album

I recently got a C6-01 and am very happy with the phone overall. There are a few questions I have about the way the music player deals with the library though.
1) Why do songs get categorised in the (Unknown/Unknown) category when the artist is known but the album isn't? This is rather annoying because there are quite a lot of tracks in the library that only have the artist information set, but they don't show up in the artist listing.
2) Can I select to play all the songs from a particular artist (without creating a playlist out of them) regardless of the album info? Again this would be very helpful since some of the tracks won't have the album info, and sometimes I just want to listen to a particular artist and not care so much about which album the tracks are on.
Neither one of these should be a problem technically, so am I just missing some menu item to get it done or is it not possible?
Thanks.

There are two "Artist" fields in the ID3 information in each track - a track artist and an album artist (this allows for compilation albums where a single singer or group did not make all of the tracks on the album), if some of these fields are not filled in, you may see strange things like this when viewing the tracks in the phone's music player. You can edit the track details in Ovi Player (they need to be copied to your PC, amended then compied back).

Presently, no. This is an omission from the S^3 music player that needs to be put right.

New music player not satisfactory no eas of use an...

Music Player for Symbian^3 Version 16.10.38.
Device details Nokia N8 OS Symbian Anna, Software Version 022.014(.356.02=Custom)
There was a time that I was telling friends that now cell phones are equipped with all the best features when it comes to music also. But that was thing of the past.
1. Artist & Albums Menu. No Separate selection for each available.
a. Artist:
How it is: Artist names are shown with album names.
Problem: If one had to play all songs of (single) desired artist, he can’t as he doesn’t get “PLAY ALL SONGS” option in that.
How it should be: Type or scroll to the desired artist name, tab (open) it then you will find out options as “Play all songs” or “Play Album (named separately as XXX, XYZ)”. Previous Media Players had that option.
b. Albums:
How it is: As explained in Artist menu.
Problem: I have albums which are multi artists (especially Indian movie songs which are mostly various artists) so if one had to listen to that complete album, he simply can’t.
How it should be: As explained above for artists. Previous Media Players had that option.
2. No type tool available to search in desired fields.
How it is: The most important thing, the typing tool is unavailable,
Problem: If one have huge music collection and have to search for song either by artist, album, genre, or by all songs option, the only way is to scroll, while scrolling he is guided by alphabets but still it not powerful tool.
How it should be: It’s easy to find if one just type the first few alphabets (of first or any word in the field) works as filter, whatever you typed remains on screen the rest hides. Previous Media Players had these options.
3. Missing Music Composer Menu.
As these options were available in older phone’s media players like Nokia N95, N73 etc but in new once they are missing, Changing in manifestation is good, adding new and attractive features is great, improvement in ease of use is best but eliminating power features is doing something which is equal to downgrade to Stone Age............ I don't think so people will appreciate.
4. Custom Equalizer Settings.
How it is: There few selective factory presets for the equalizer.
Problem: There are millions of Genres Worldwide and not every part of the world matches the music presets they stored in device and most of time people match the sound on their Audio devices (Car Stereo, Home and other) so they need to edit the equalizer for the best optimum sound quality.
How it should be: As in older devices had and one can change and save his own setting.
5. Expecting to add more menus: Suggestions for more menus (like year, mood etc) will be greatest things you will do.
Who will go and buy a separate device just for music if he has all these features supported by his cell phone specially when the manufacturer claims that it have music player inside.
People don’t have to stop on highways or stop skating for a while just to select the next song, allow people to go by several options.
In one simple line to explain, keep all the options of older music player, just change the display styles to new one. Add the suggestions.

Yep as I said in my post tried that obviously aswell as ... well, the other things i mentioned in my posting.
Now does anyone have any ideas?

N97 Music Player

Is there a better / alternative music player available anywhere for the N97? The default player is poor in my opinion - the player I had on my 2 year old Sony W960 was way ahead of this Nokia product.
Simple things like being able to hide artists associated with compilations seems to be missing.

I agree with rapid, poor sound compared to my last SE 'phone. Good high end but the middle is weak and the bass lacks any puch whatsoever. And those earphones? A 'phone that costs so much and a budget of 7 pence for them? Good grief.
Nokia: do yourselves a favour - go and spend a few quid on a cheap Sony 'phone and have a look at how the music should be done on your "market leading entertainment device".
Sony: here's an opportunity for you - port some of your music player software to S60 v5, sell it in the Ovi and you'll have a stream of punters. In fact, since the upcoming Satio / Idou / whatever-it's-called-this-week is S60 v5, and I'm assuming you'll have put more than 10 minutes though into the music player on the thing, let's just have that software. Thanks.
I do like most things about this 'phone and I expect the irritating bugs will get ironed out in due course, but it's a shame it had to be so disappointing out of the box.
