IPad music app does not show track artists in compilations

Hello community,
i have a problem with my iPad's music app. When browsing compilations, it does not show the artist of each track like my iPhone does. Both devices are sync'ed with the same iTunes library, and the 'Part of a compilation' flag is set correctly to the corresponding tracks.
Please let me illustrate the problem with a few screenshots.
The iPhone shows this compilation correctly as 'Various Artists' and thus displays the track's artists in each line below:
In contrast, the iPad's music app does not seem to identify the compilation correctly. The artist is not shown as "Various Artists" like on the iPhone, but the artists of the first track is wrongly used instead. Furthermore, the artist of each track is not shown in the list on the right side:
The setting "Sort album by artist" is turned on on both devices.
Any ideas what could be wrong?
Thank you!

It's not you, it's the iPad's iOS. The Music app in iOS 5 for the iPad is horrendous with several UI fails:
- No category for Compilations
- Incorrect/ Missing Artist for Compilations
- No lyrics
- No indication of track number within a group of tracks (e.g. "18 of 37")
- Sporadic indication of which track is playing while looking at a list
Hopefully these things get corrected in iOS 6, but for now you'll have to bear with it. You can voice your concern here:

The ipad music app does not allow me to play certain tracks that i have synced via my itunes. The tracks are clearly visibly in the music app but when tap on them to play they wont play. help and advice will be much appreciated

The ipad music app does not allow me to play certain tracks that i have synced via my itunes. The tracks are clearly visibly in the music app but when tap on them to play they wont play. what do i do?

Agree about the disaster part. I haven't found a fix within iTunes.
I gave up and switched to downcast 2 days ago. Even though it was a hassle to re-subscribe to all my podcasts, im so much happier.
To make switching easier, I found that in iTunes you can "get info" on the podcast and copy the RSS address to the clipboard. Put all of these in a message note. When iCloud syncs the note to your phone, you can copy and paste the urls into downcast one at a time to subscribe.
Downcast has crashed on me occassionally when I'm subscribing to feeds, but so far it has recovered gracefully each time and no data was lost.

IOS 7 music app does not display artist pictures and has incorrect album art after master reset.

Strange issue here. I did the update from iOS 6 to iOS 7, after I did the update, I noticed my synced music has just a random photo of the artist / group, that seems to be downloaded from the iTunes sites, because these pictures of the artist/group is not my album artwork.
I did a master reset on my device because I wanted to start from a clean slate, and set it up as a new phone. I went through and adjusted all of my settings and synced my music back on via iTunes, now its not showing these pictures any longer, infact, the strangest issue of them all.. is now when I view artists, the album that I synced now has a complete different album artwork picture that is not related to that album.
I am at a loss, my iTunes is extremely organized, I have everything configured to be 100% accurate for track names, artist, album, and album artwork.
Anyone have any input here? It only screwed up after the reset I did. This has to be a bug or something.

SiMooew469: Thank you! After countless wasted hours messing with this, your solution was the only one that worked! After setting up a few phones "as new" I noticed all the artist images would appear (for those that have one) even with my Match turned on. I could not duplicate it on my restored-from-backup iPhone5S, as I would get a mix of the images and album art, even for those artists that have profile photos on the as-new setups. I couldn't afford to lose all my text messages, etc. that come with restoring a phone as-new, so I tried about everything else under the sun: I tried logging in-and-out of my Apple ID, toggling Match on-and-off, I even deleted iTunes_control folder using iExplorer on a Windows machine. Nothing worked.
Here's what finally did:
If you don't have it set this way already, toggle "Group By Album Artist" in Settings->Music. For some reason that makes a difference for some artists in your library that appear when album artist is set to "Various Artists" or something other than the track's artist. Logout of your Apple ID. Log in with any other Apple ID. Open the Music app and watch all the artist images load in the Artisits tab. Once it is done, logout of the other Apple ID and login with your regular Apple ID. Finally, all the artist images will remain. Those artists that do not have a profile photo with iTunes will still show album art, which is by design. Hopefully Apple will keep updating that database.
Incidentally, it's a bit odd that those profile photos don't appear in the Artists view in iTunes 11...or am I the only one?

Music app does not have the function to change the audio source.

I use to change my audio source in my music app with the icon that looks like a triangle going into a rectangle i think it is call airplay, but it not there any more and what it is weir is that others app does have it so if i change my audio source in a video online it will change it in my music too..... Well i hope i could explain my self clear enough. Just put the airplay icon back in the music app. Thanks for your attention.
Best regards
Roger

iTunes Radio is currently only available in the US - if you are in the US then try logging out and back into your account via Settings > iTunes & App Store, and if that doesn't fix it then try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Music app does not display some of the artists' names correctly

It's so annoying. I have a few artists, whose names are not displayed correctly by the music app. In the following, I'm gonna take the band "Annisokay" as an example.
I, first of all, had this artist named as "annisokay". Everything was alright. Today, I decided it would look better with a capital A, so I changed the name to "Annisokay". I synced my iPhone with iTunes and checked the music app afterwards: In the music app, the name is still displayed as "annisokay". I connected the iPhone to my MacBook again and checked the "On this iPhone" tab in iTunes. There, the name is correctly displayed as "Annisokay".
I've tried deleting all the music on the iPhone and syncing it again, restarting my iPhone, deleting the music from iTunes and importing it again, changing the names to some gibberish and changing it back again, but nothing worked!!
So, to sum up, whatever I'm trying, in the end the artist's name (Artist & Album Artist) is defined as "Annisokay" and is displayed like that in iTunes itself and in the "On this iPhone" tab, but in the music app on the iPhone it's "annisokay". That's very annoying. Has anybody else ever encountered this problem? Is there someone who can help me to solve it?

Hi Phani
Attached please find the ini file as requested.
I look forward to your response.

OVi Player does not allow download music with prox...

Hello,
i've noticed that OVI Player deos not allow to download music when I am inside the firewall or under a corporate proxy. ANy idea if this is a restriction from Nokia Player or is it specific to my connection ?

Dear svenks,
If you scroll down the discussion topics, you will realise many other users are facing music download problem after upgrading from Nokia Music to Ovi Player.
Same for me, whether I connect my WinXP Prof 32-bit notebk behind my company firewall or at my home's ADSL broadband with Windows Firewall off, antivirus off, http://music.ovi.com set as trusted site, the downloading still fails.
Per advised by Nokia careline, I have already sent them a log file and now waiting for their investigation.
I wonder if anyone in the world is currently successful in downloading songs using Ovi Player. If yes, I would really like to know what PC configuration they are running under.
Richard

My Music App does not have the Radio icon after the update

Hope that helps.

[FEATURE REQUEST] - dlna client in Xperia WALKMAN Android app does not support flac or ogg files

Hi, I have found a pretty bad bug in the dlna support in the WALKMAN android app for Xperia phones.
Please could a mod or a community person who is in contact with the developers, pass this info on to them and ask them to please work on it.
I have the latest updated Version 8.3.A.0.5 of the WALKMAN android app installed on a SONY XPERIA Z mobile phone and I have a dlna server set up and running on my local network.
If I download, install and use the DNLA Total Media app available in the Google play store instead of the WALKMAN app, I can play flac and m4a files; no problem.
However, if I use the WALKMAN app to browse to my dlna server and try to play flac or m4a files, I get a small black box on screen that says "Content not available."
If I browse to and select an mp3 file instead, the WALKMAN app will play (stream) the mp3 file and no small black box will appear.
So it looks like the dlna part of the SONY WALKMAN app is missing support for some audio file container types which are supported by default on the Android operating system and work natively in the WALKMAN app (I tested play back from internal storage.) I believe ogg format playback is missing also. Because it is not required by the dlna specification.
Please improve file type support in the dlna client part of the WALKMAN app for XPERIA phones. People working in professional audio environments don't use mp3 anymore (And haven't done for over five years.)
Thank You

Thanks for the feedback!
As you say, i believe the DLNA standard doesn't have any support for flac and ogg but i've seen some 3:rd party apps that can do it but i'm not sure if those uses DLNA in that case or just UPnP. I will forward your feedback though.
The only solution for this that i know of today is to use a 3:rd party app or perhaps mount the share using SMB instead from Settings -> Storage.

Android Viewer does not retain downloaded Folios

Hi,
Android Viewers (here without subscription) for Google Play Store, do not retain the folio file when downloaded. As long as the app is active (even as background task), there is no problem. But as soon as you kill the background task and relaunch the App, the folio file is missing and the download button shows again. I tested with two different apps.
I use the the following tools:
InDesign CS5.5
Adobe Folio Builder Panel 12.2.4
Adobe Folio Producer Tools 1.11
Adobe Viewer Builder 2.1.130
The folio is v20
The App is a v21 Android Viewer for Google Play Store without subscription
My Test Tablet is an Acer IconiaTab A510 with Android 4.0.3
Developer Mode (USB Debugging, etc.) is off
Has anyone the same behaviour?
Thanks
Yves

Hi, I have the same problem: Android viewers do not retain the folio file when downloaded. While app is in background all works fine but when close and relaunch folios must be downloaded again.
I use:
InDesign CS6
DPS Desktop Tools CS6
Adobe Viewer Builder 2.1.130
Folio and App Version is 21
I tested on:
Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 with Android 3.2
Someone could help us please? Thanks in advance.
Edit: I rebuilt folios and custom viewer for v20 and everything works fine. What a strange...

Adobe Creative Cloud App does not show downloaded apps and shows "download error"

I am not a full paying member just yet, and have been using Photoshop on trial for my graphic design courses. With the app, instead of showing me that my 30 day trial is over, I get a download error and contact customer support message. I have completely deleted and redownloaded the Creative Cloud App twice already, but am not sure how to fix this problem so I am still unable to download my free trials before purchase.
How can I fix this problem?
