N95 Music Player

I've noticed this a few times, but its really started to annoy me.
How come when I have a playlist on my N95 and I set it to shuffle - it doesnt play ALL the songs?
If I have a playlist with 10 songs it will only play a few and then stop.
Today I set it to play all my sings but in shuffle. It said at the bottom of the list 10 hours worth of music, but it stopped after about 2.5 hours.
Is this normal?!

I've had the same thing, definately seems like a small bug. Bizarrely with mine it only does it sometimes, but it seems that when it reaches the last song in the playlist (as in the one at the bottom) it treats that as if it is the last song to be played regardless of the shuffle feature.
Haven't managed to overcome it yet, but it's rarely a problem for me to just press play again

N95 music player and working with sub folders

Hi, I use file transfer to move my music from PC to N95 and use folders and sub folders within the music folder. I cannot see the folders when using the music player. I need advise how I can transfer my music easily so that I can play music files that are within a folder. regards.

Yes. The refresh seems to have no effect on the Podcasts. I even unsubscribed to all my podcasts--which is supposed to also delete the downloaded podcasts as well; did a refresh and the the podcasts are still listed on the mediaplayer.
Another weird thing is that if the podcast app downloads another podcast, it is added to the list!

N95 music player bitrates

Hi there,
I've just been loading mp3's onto my N95. The music player only seems to play some of them, even though they all play absolutely fine on my PC.
It looks like the differential between those that work and those that don't is that the working ones are low bitrate ( 128kbps, 256kbps ) and the ones that are failing are 320kbps.
Does anyone know if this is an official limitation. The manual says that "Music Player does not nescessarily support ALL versions of a file format".
Which is a little vague.

I've checked again. Looks like my latest rips are 384kbps. That is greater than the 320kbps max, which would explain why it's not working too well!

Can't play mp3 with N95 music player...

Hi, I've got Nokia N95 and when I copy my mp3 songs from pc I cant listen them in music player and I can find that songs just when I changing my ringtone... but when I get mp3 via bluetooth then I can listen in music player also I can listen song if it a .dcf file... Maybe someone can tell me where is the problem and how can I solve it?

Thanks man I got this phone just for few days first time Nokia like that now I'm feel so stupid

[N95] Music player stopped adding mp3s

It just happened, I normally add mp3s via mass storage and then rescan collection.
Now I tried to delete "private" folder, reformatting memory card, but music player is not picking up music anymore.
I don't want to format it again - are there any other solutions?

Unfortunately, I've tried that. However I don't know how to acces phones "private" folder, it's just one if you use it via usb cable. Maybe bluetooth?
I did reformat phones memory - it is the only thing that helped (still it is not fun reinstalling everything - backups are not perfect).
And also I'm using it for work now, I cannot really afford reformatting and setting up frequently

N95 Music Player Search/Scroll Functions - more us...

I don't know if this is a bug, or an incomplete function? If it doesn't exist, I would surely love to see it in the next firmware upgrade (hint: Nokia people, take note!).
When I was viewing "all songs" in my music player, I wanted to search songs in alphabetical order. The search box popped up, but it wasn't working. One possible reason that I thought of was that it is case-sensitive (since all my songs start with a capital, ie. "Damien Rice - Blower's Daughter"). The search function was only in small letters; holding the # key didn't switch it to caps.
Upon experimenting by renaming a song in small letters and also in numbers, i discovered that the search function still didn't work. Is this a bug?
On a side note, I realized that the scroll function in the music player can only scroll downwards from the first item, as opposed to scrolling "up" to the last song. It is a real hassle to scroll to the last song in the list if you have like a hundred songs! Can this be rectified as well?
All these small things make a difference to users like me... as it's really all about user-friendliness.
Any thoughts, any one?

All you need to do is create a playlist and call it what you like, if the music is on your phone music player will find it and you can select individual tracks or albums and add to playlst or create new ! Also you can use Ovi suite to sync/ transfe music to your phoner or create playlists. Personally I just drag and drop music onto my phone that I like and use PlaylistDJ from Ovi store.
Good Luck

N95 music player can't fastforward wav file

I have a 1.5hour recording in amr format, I can FF to any position no problem, but once I converted it to wav format the music player can no longer do FF, the best I can do is forward 2 minutes, more than that the pointer returns to start once I release the button, the file size is about the same 4M before and after the conversion, any fix to that ?

Don't know, but any particular reason why you want the file in WAV and not AMR?, why not convert to MP3 or WMA or AAC?
640K Should be enough for everybody

Stupid N95 music player cannot delete album and ar...

After added new songs, then refrash, the new albums and artist can shown in the list. But How about I deleted these songs? The albums and artist still in the list that I cannot delete them. A stupid notice, 'feature not supported', is displayed when I want to delete the an albums or artist. How stupid the application design is! Is it a record to remind me what I listened before?
Also, why the background picture was separated in the now playing window? I means cannot be shown full screen as other screens. My theme is work well in V12 firmware, what problem on V20?
In fact, I am very disappoint that Nokia rob of the free GPS function in new firmware to chouse more money from customer. Now, a useless music player is pushed to user. What is next?

There a a number of posts on how to easily solve the problem regarding deleting album/artist folders.
Odd what you say about the GPS. My GPS is free. The navigation isn't but I can read a map....

N95 Music player freezing issue

Ok I have tried many a place to find a fix to my issue. When I am playing my music, every now and then it fades out and then in again in a about half of a second frame and the screen freshes from the screensaver to the music player background. It is not a matter of an alert going off, an incoming call or battery life. I just hate it when I am playing the music and it fades like a cheap DJ trying and failing to do a cross over lol.
Thanks for the read all
Solved!
Go to Solution.

No worries figured out the config that was causing the freezing/crashing.

N95 Music Player Freezes While Refreshing Music Li...

Hi,
My N95 Freezes when I select the option: Refresh Music Library. It just tells me how many it has found and it stays that way until I turn off and On the phone!
I tried removing the memory and putting it back in but still no luck. Its funny how when there is no memory card in, it refreshes it successfully! without freezing!
I have also tried deleting all media from my memory and copying them back in again.. yet.. not luck.
It wasnt like this until I updated my firmware to the latest one being: v 12.0.013.
Is there anything I can do to fix it? Is it normal?
Thanks ALOT!

so does dat mean 1 folder for every song? So, say for instance if i have 500 tracks, i ll have to create 500 folder?
Hi Babeygyal,
I think Korngear is saying that each folder should only have a maximum of 1000 music files.
Cheers.

Volume problem with Music Player on N95

Hi all,
I am puzzled with a problem I'm having with my N95. The problem appeared after I performed an upgrade on the phone.
The thing is that the right side Volume keys do not work when using the Music player. I know the keys work since the zoom is working on the camera (the same keys). But what is really weird is that if I use the File Manager and open a music file, hence opening the Music player then the Volume keys work fine.
The problem is when I access the Music player either by the Media button on the handset or via the Menu > Music > Music Player.
This is driving me nuts I have tried to update the firmware with the same load without success, I just updated the firmware to the latest version V 30.0.018 hoping that it would be fixed but it didn't
Anyone have the same problem??
Thanks,

Hi pavelosk,
I solved the problems on mine. It wasn't easy and is not a straightforward solution. After several attempts everything is ok now. I had to restore the phone to original settings. But also you need to remove all media in the phone. Somehow when the files or links to files are corrupted (often by downloading music via PC suite) this in turns gets the phone in this weird status. It is best to download music files to the phone via a data transfer.
Anyways you need to make sure all music files are deleted and that from within the music player library you cannot see any music file. It must state 0 Music files.
Once you have got rid of this, then I had to load the firmware several times until it worked. I am not sure but it happened to me that there was a new firmware available, but it didn't fix it on it's own. I had to remove the files and re-flash it like 4 times before the issue dissappeared. I know it isn't a step by step guide. But no one else knows what the problem is exactly. I am happy I managed to fix mine (after more than 4 month of trying!!!)
Good luck.

N95 Has Stupid Music Player

Hi Everyone,
I have an N95 8GB with the latest firmware version (V20.x.x). My problem is that when I play the music player, it will randomly cause the phone to freeze and reboot after maybe half an hour or so. I tried resetting the phone, and reinstalling software with NSU but the problem still persists.
Has anyone got any ideas? I'm reluctant to send it away for repair because I know they'll just re-flash the phone and send it back to me and the problem still won't be fixed.
This is not acceptable NOKIA for a ~€600 phone!!!
Anyone able to offer any help or able to confirm that they share the problem?
Thanks,
Keith

If you've done a *#7370# reset and formatted E and you still can't see your music, the phone needs to go to a Nokia care point, there is nothing else you can do

N95 how to limit what directory the Music Player s...

Hi. I installed some sofware in E drive (memory card) with some sound files (an IM program). The Music Player managed to find them and added them to the library. But those files are really nudge sounds and not musics.
So I really prefer it not searching directories other than the one I set to search. I would like to set it to only search "Music" folder if I could.
Could you help me out? Thanks.

If you hook up via USB you can change the file attribute to "Hidden", they then don't show in Music Player. Refresh Music Player after changing them.
I haven't done it for a while so those instructions are a bit vague, if you search this site or some of the others you'll find more detail.
I had to do it after I installed "Step Counter" -- it's sounds showed up on Music player.

Revert to a memory card that you were using when the phone didn't display the fault. If the problem goes away then the new memory card is the source of the problem. If the problem persists then it's the new firmware.

N95 Voice Comm. command for music player?

Under the voice Comm. - new application, how do I add the music player?

You can only add applications that are offered on the list, you cannot add it if it's not there.
So, hit options / new application and you'll see a list of all available programs.
