N8 Music Player causes phone reboot?

Has anyone experienced this? When I am listening to the music player with my headphones (just standard headphones, not the included mic/controller headset) and the phone is locked in idle state, sometime it will just spontaneously reboot. The music stops and 5 seconds later the phone restarts.
It could happen after an hour of listening or 10 minutes. No specific time or anything like that. Just a spontaneous reboot. This is highly reproducible given enough listening. At some point during the day, if I am listening to music for some extended period of time, it will happen.
How crazy is it that this elementary smartphone function doesn't work reliably?

I normally just connect phone as an external hard drive, create a folder in E and name it Music, then just drag and drop my music into that folder, but run albums through Windows Media Player first and check album info (right click on Album icon in WMP) then safely remove phone and refresh music player, and it all works fine !

After ICS update, WiFi widget causes phone reboot

After installing the ICS update on my Xperia PRO USA unlocked model via PC Companion... when I turn off WiFi using the widget, it does so - it turns it off. When I use the widget again to turn WiFi back on, it causes my phone to reboot.
I don't seem to have this problem if I turn WiFi on and off inside the WiFi settings area. But using the widget is now broken for me.
Anyone else?
When I use this, to turn WiFi back on, the phone reboots:

Have you tried repairing the phone software via PC Companion?

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

How can I get my iPhone to play the last track the music player was playing from where it left off at the same volume even if I switch my phone off?

The music player always reverts back to where I started the day before at a low volume and it's driving me mad! On a previous phone with earlier IOS there was the option to play from where the track left off when stopped - how do I find this option now?

If you click on the column headings in iTunes it will sort the tracks by the column you have selected.
Try clicking on the Album column, this should then put the tracks in the right order. You probably have the Track column selected which will keep the tracks in alphabetical order by Track name.

That usually means that you previously synced your iPhone to a different computer. An iPhone can only sync to one computer. If you try to sync to a different one the iTunes content on the phone will be replaced by the contents of the new computer.

Phone reboots when certain songs are played on the music app?

on my iphone 5c, if i try playing certain songs in my music app, they play for a few seconds and then my entire phone reboots. i have a lot of music on my phone and all of the songs that do this are from the same album. it also didn't start doing this until after i updates to ios 8. i've tried looking elsewhere to see if someone else has had this problem but i've come up empty. its really inconvenient because i can't even listen to those songs now. i've also noticed that its only when i have headphones or an auxiliary cord plugged into my phone.

Hi princessruto,
If you are having issues with your restarting when certain songs are played through headphones, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Force an app to close in iOS
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If the issue continues, take the device to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

6288 music Player freezes and locks phone

My Nokia 6288 when I start the music player freezes. I goes into the music player says "starting music player" then freezes in that screen. I can press cancel to un freez it but that makes all the phones applications fail and then the phone will then turn off and not turn back on. The only way to reset it is to remove the battery. everything will then work until you try to start the music player again..

Had a simular problem, it got stable after a few trips to the Nokia service centre....

How do I convert itune music to transfer to cell phone music player.

I have a Samsung Rugby phone that I want to install music to from itunes. I once found online a step by step instruction to change the file so that the Samsung phone could read the file but now I can't find it on the internet. Can someone tell me the steps to take to make the Mac music work on a basic cell phone with a music player. I've done it before but just don't remember how I did it. Thanks, Rick

In Phone Music Player Issue

I have a Droid X2 and when I play music through the in phone player and select to repeat one song, the player stops working after the song has finished playing, thus not playing again. This is consistent no matter the song or artist, but repeat all works fine without problems.
Also, just as a nice player feature, could there be a crossfade option and be able to adjust the duration of said crossfade? It would be nice if there wasn't a break between songs unless the artist intended for there to be one.
Thanks!

Correct that I am using the built in music player. However, the functionality of its simplified, non-streaming form helps me to greatly conserve battery life. The main reason I pointed out the problem was to hopefully have an update fix the repeat one issue, not address the crossfade feature I've been mentioning. The crossfade ability would be an awesome bonus, but is not my main point. I have other apps, SlackerRadio for example, but can only listen to them for a couple hours before my battery dies. So I switched to putting the music on my phone and playing it through the provided player.
