Walkman app stopped operating!

Walkman app (version: 8.4.A.5.4) stopped operating suddenly.
After tapping on the app, I get a message "Unfortunately, Walkman has stopped.",
and so the app can't be even opened, no music can't be played even through the Walkman app widget
The app was not updated recently, it was like a month ago.
I tried to restart the phone, but nothing has changed.
Android version: 4.4.4

  • How do I re-update my walkman app?

    In the app setting screen there is an option of deleting the walkman app's update.
    After deleting that update, I am now stuck with the older version of the app. Is there a way for me to re-update to the 
    newest version? Repairing my phone through the companion software on pc does not seem to help.

    OK now I tried myself and contacted local (German) support.
    Described the problem (deinstalled update of Walkman, also outdated versions of Album and Movies, for all of them Update Center not showing the latest versions).
    First instruction to solve was to stop the Update Center app and remove data and cache then reboot the phone. I did that already twice but for the sake of doing it I did it again and of course it did not help . Which I told the guy from support.
    He then told me he was sorry but I had to download the apk files from the internet and install them myself. I asked if I should share this recommendation as support solution and he agreed to that. So here you are (strange they don't even offer to send or download the apk files...)
    Finally I asked if I would be receiving incremental update notifications via Update Center which he confirmed. I will come back on that once we know there are newer versions we don't get notified about...
    Cheers

    Hi everybody,

    Well, here is how I solved the problem and I please you SONY, please help your people! We really love your products but you have to keep on working hard and get things done! FIRST: Improve the conversation with us, do inform us about issues !!! SECOND: Better test your software and improve your quality management !!!
    ok:
    - Go to settings and apps, choose Walkman.
    - Stop the App. Uninstall all updates and re-activate the shipped version
    - Restart your phone
    The old app is without the sidebar and all these bells and whistles but it is working at least ...

  • Walkman app sign in loop

    My walkman app is working fine but when a track is playing I see the message, Signing in - Please Wait. It shows then goes off, then appears and off again. Has a continuous loop and only way to stop it is to press the HOME button.

    If that doesn't work, repair your phone

  • Walkman app deleted song problem

    Hi i have deleted a song on the walkman app but its still there even tho i cant play it anymore.

    If the above does not help,it is related to the media storage app. Go to settings-apps-all,scroll down to media storage. Tap on it,force stop and clear data. Restart your device.
    Note that it might take some time until all your media is indexed,especially if you have lots of files.

  • Re: continuous playback on WALKMAN app

    Hi Sony, can I suggest that the WALKMAN app be made not to play the next song automatically after the currently song stops playing? Or have an option to disable continuous playback?
    Sometimes we just want to listen to one song at a time, or to choose another song manually after a song has finished playing, instead of having to stop the automatic playback.
    Thanks and regards

    You can make your own playlist or if you want to enable shuffle tap longer on album art when playing and you get shuffle,repeat.

  • Fixed spooler subsystem app stopped working

    Hi All,
    I had "spooler subsystem app stopped working..." and found solution that may help you to fix your case.
    I don't know some how vista turn off LDP port after installing new printer driver and leaves only Internet client port only. That why the printer spooler service failed to start. Solution is:
    1. Go to Programs and Features in Control panel > click Turn Windows features on or off
    2. click + sign of Print services
    3. Select LPD and LPR. You should remove Internet Printing Client. > restart your PC to ensure there is no error of spooler service.
    4. Add your printer driver again.
    It worked for me. Let try.
    Chan

    Usually the driver crashes and preempts the print spooler. the famous HP LJ 1020 made an expert on printing, because the driver is faulty. read on... IF you have the HP LaserJet 1020 then the fix is found all the way down on this reply.
    you have two options:

  • Most apple's app stopped working

    hi
    please help, suddenly most apple's app stopped working. reinstalling the OS didn't help.

    You probably ran a defective third-party "utility" such as "CleanMyMac" or "MacCleanse" that purports to "clean up" "junk" files. What it really does is to corrupt the operating system and many applications.  
    The first thing you need to do is remove that software according to the developer's instructions. Never install it, or anything like it, again. Then see below. If you use any iWork applications, you may need to delete them and redownload them from the App Store.
    If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
    If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
    *The linked support article refers to OS X 10.10 ("Yosemite"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.
