Nokia N96 music player stopped working?

I recently put some new music onto my n96 and then i went to play it on the music player but the music player won't work at all, i can't even open the albums,artists etc. I went to file manager and selected on of my tracks and opened it and it said unable to play file? It seems that my music player has dissappearred, can anyone help??

28days is your maximum for a replacement after that it's a repair. I know cause I've had the same problems spent over three days doing all the same things. just take it back & get your new one before it's too late.
I bought mine before christmas 18th Dec. took it back to Phones for you on sunday 31st. jan. we can only repair it.
even though it had never worked properly & i had proof of my emails to nokia the answer was still the same & that Phones for you should have been contacted not nokia as that was who i bought it off! now I'm without my phone for 2 weeks while nokia looks at it for me then i have to wait for Phones for u to get in touch to go pick it up.
Go change it if you have this problem.
wait at your peril!!

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

Music Player Stopped Working

I use the simple Quicktime Music Player to play mp3 music on my website.
However, when I was prompted to update Quicktime, the music player quit working. I think I have messed up the MIME association.
How do I fix that?
Thanks,

It could be corrupted data on the memory card that's causing this.
Does it behave in the same way if you remove the memory card?
If it works ok without the card you need to format the card and reload the music and try again.
If it still fails to work try a factory reset from the settings menu. If that fails then you will have to take it to a nokia care point for repair.

Nokia N96 Music Player DO NOT UPDATE Song's Cover ...

Hi,
I use Windows Media Player added a cover picture (a.jpg) to a song (abc.mp3), then transfer this song to N96 use PCSuit Mode,
After the transfer completed, open the Music Player in N96 and play that song (abc.mp3), the Music Player can show the cover picture (a.jpg) normally,
Then, exit the Music Player.
And again, use Windows Media Player to modify the cover picture of abc.mp3, this time, just change the cover picture to (b.jpg), then, retransfer the song (abc.mp3) to N96 in the same way.
After the second transfer completed, reopen the Music Player and play the abc.mp3, and found that Music Player still shows the a.jpg as the cover picture,
In the right way, Music Player should shows the b.jpg as the cover picture, I think Music Player may have cache the song's cover picture when it plays the song.
How to solve this problem? Where is the Music Player to cache the song's cover pictures in?
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

There is a folder called 'private' which contains settings for various phone apps and their databases, but it's best not to play in there because you could damage any number of other elements of your phone.
If it is a bug, then check if you have already the latest software for your phone, as it may already be cured. If not, as a workaround, try deleting the track from the phone, updating the library and then retransferring the track.
There are also other ways to deal with album art which don't have this issue with teh N96 music player (I tested them all myself):

I have just updated my N8 to Belle. It was working fine untill few days ago i added some mp3 file to my phone. I was trying to refresh the music player bt i won't stop refreshing. Please need help ASAP cuz it's really **bleep** me off
thanks in advance

Hey rafinmb
Welcome to the forum!
Try and isolate the problem, check whether if only one song is affected. Should that be the case then remove the song and add it again and the same goes for all the other song. It could simply mean that the file(s) were corrupted during or before the transfer process.
Lets us know is if this works.

Carl

Music player stopped working on 6085

It could be corrupted data on the memory card that's causing this.

Nokia N96 music player problem

Hi,
I've had my N96 for a while now. The main reason i bought it is my music. I have updated to the latest firmware BUT the music player is still slow as. main problems are:
1) playlists/etc taking ages to load.
2) click on a song to play and the phone just waits then does not play the song and just goes to the end of playlists.
3) i have to play every song by left click --> play --> on device cause of the above problem
4) The worst problem is when the phone is playing a song. if i press back it honestly takes 3 minutes to go back to the playlist. so to avoid that i just press left click exit.
is this related to general slowness of the phone? please tell me how to fix this issue and if its general phone slowness how to fix that too.
oh and can i remove this music player and get another one? like another application to play my music. im seriously getting to the stage where i would like to throw this phone at a brick wall.

Try to do a factory reset by keying *#7780#. Then updates music library. The phone needs time, for it is indexing all media files. Check also if their is some apps working in the background by press hold the menu key & close it, it slow down the indexing. Mines takes more than a week before it becomes snappy on music files.

Nokia n96 music player

Hi,
I've transferred music onto the mass storage using windows media player. They are all mp3 files that I used to have on my old n95, so I don't think there's any DRM issues. I can see (and play) the new music in file manager, put if I hit refresh library in the music player it sits there for ages saying refreshing and doesn't find any music. I left it overnight and it still found nothing by the morning. Does anyone have any ideas what's gone wrong? I've looked on here and can't seem to see anyone else who's having the same problem I don't think.
Thanks
Steve

Before opting to reformat your phone, you could try my advice.
Just to be safe, make a backup of your phone first to avoid losing any personal data.
You could try to "fix" the file corruption that has happened to the storage media where your music is stored.
1. Connect the phone via USB (Mass Storage Mode)
2. Take note which drive your music is stored in your phone (D:\ or E:\ or F:\ etc)
3. Make sure you close all Windows Explorer windows (or any software accessing your phone's storage)
4. Open command prompt (in Windows XP: Start Menu > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt)
5. On the command prompt window, type:
chkdsk F: /f
*Note: replace "F:" with the drive letter of the storage media where your music is located in your phone (refer to step 2)
6. Press the ENTER key to start checking your storage media for errors and automatically fixing them. If it asks:
Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another
process. Chkdsk may run if this volume is dismounted first.
ALL OPENED HANDLES TO THIS VOLUME WOULD THEN BE INVALID.
Would you like to force a dismount on this volume? (Y/N)
Just type Y then press ENTER. The checking/fixing might take a while. You should be able to refresh your Music Library without any problems
Goodluck.

Ovi music player stopped working after 2 weeks. Ca...

Dear all,
I have had the Nokia OVI player with comes with music feature working fine for two weeks now.
I am using a Windows 7 o/s.
All of a sudden when I try to open Ovi I am greeted with a blank screen sign in screen. All I can see is the Home icon, comes with music, sign in and join now options.
When I click on one of those buttons absolutely nothing happens.
I have tried reinstalling and reinstalling after deleting the MDataStore.db3 from the dataApps folder on my hard drive but still the same thing happens.
Please someone help! I feel cheated that I cannot download music when paying for this service.

I am having a similar issue. However I've had my airport express for over 3 years. Yesterday we had to reset the router as it wasn't broadcasting.
Today having same issue so we reset the router again. And now still blinking amber. When I go to the Airport Utility I can't even go to the Manual Setup as I'm getting the Error 4. Internet works fine as the router and modem are hooked up to my computer via Ethernet cable.
I did a factory reset and the AE is broadcasting again. but I can't get in to protect the network. And it's still blinking amber.
Any thoughts would be great.

Nokia 5800 music player stops when someone sends a...

is there anyway to fix ths? its a good phone but i dont want that feature to ruin it.
is there a way to make it play totally in the background, even if someone sends a message?

No there is no way. The phone has priority over accessory functions. This is common knowledge to all that have these kinds of phones. If this is going to be an issue then get a dedicated media player without a phone. ALL devices do this, to include the iPhone.
Show the KUDOS button some love.... Hit that bad boy.... It don't hurt....

Hi deamayfield,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your Music app is unresponsive, try restarting/resetting your iPhone:

Using iPhone as a music player at work...best battery practice?

I'm using my iPhone as a music player at work. I have a power cable (one that plugs into the wall, not a computer) and am wondering if it will harm my battery's longevity if I leave the power connected all day.

You do not have to worry about your iPhone overcharging, but all li-ion batteries need to get some "exercise," so be sure you use the phone on battery power from time to time to ensure longest battery life.

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.

OS 10.6.8 dvd player stopped working

OS 10.6.8 dvd player stopped working (stutters - no sound) when I am in my usual log-in but does work in my alternate (checking) log-in, disk permissions repair did not help. I trashed a dvd.plist file from my users/Library/Preferences folder but no change. Any suggestions most welcome.

Thanks for reminding me about VLC Player. I had an old version that I occasionally used for AVIs and such but I hadn't used it for quite awhile. Of course, it works perfectly so I'll take your advice and (sort of) forget about the Apple DVD Player - although I hate having a glitch that I can't get to the bottom of.
For example, removing both of those items made no difference.
Re: the two accounts when in safe mode, DVD Player doesn't work at all in safe mode...
(http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564)
so that didn't get me any farther.
No doubt when I eventually upgrade to Lion the DVD Problem will sort itself out. Until then, I have good ole' VLC. I appreciate the help.
