Xperia T3 Android 4.4.4 Music constantly pauses by itself

I have had this phone for about 6 months and love it, however lately whenever i listen to music, with the sony music app (formally walkman), it gets through one song then exactly2 seconds into the next song it pauses. I want to do a factory reset but i would like to avoid that till i see if there is another solution. Ive been mowing the lawn and having to take the phone out of my pocket to unpause it every 5 minutes is getting very annoying. Thanks in advance for any help.

Home Sharing is designed to work on your local network not across the internet/cloud.
Stuff is accessed under the Computers column where your local iTunes library on a local computer would appear.
Home Sharing would share your iTunes content (i.e. stuff stored in itunes on the computer, not in the cloud) with AppleTV or an iPad etc on the SAME network.
AppleTV2 will not be able to see itunes content on the work computer over the internet. It's not designed to. if the work computer was on the home network it would.
iCloud is in it's infancy and is not a mature product - iTunes TV Show purchases appear on AppleTV, but currently music does not unless you are subscribed to iTunes Match. I find this rather odd to be honest, along with the inability to buy music on AppleTV2. Movies purchased in iTunes are not authorised for iCloud viewing currently either.
Maybe it has something to do with iTunes Match 'getting in the way' - i think they assume you'll use that whereas you really want to be able to access Purchased music from the cloud without subscribing to itunes Match which is overkill for some.

How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer

Airplay constantly pauses with 1 movie only

Hi,
I have been using the apple tv for a while, with everything largely fine. However recently I downloaded the movie "wizard of oz" and when I play this the apple tv constantly pauses (ie every 10 -30 seconds). Nothing like this happens with any other streaming.
Any ideas how to fix this?

The iPad doesn't actually need to have the movie on it, all it's doing is getting the Apple TV to download it from the Internet, which you can get the Apple TV to do directly.
The odd thing seems to be that the Apple TV can download from the Internet without a problem, but not from your computer, the inference being that you have a problem with your network between the computer and Apple TV or a problem on the computer itself.
Have you tried restarting your router and trying again.

Help. On Demand constantly pausing.

Whether I try to watch anything on Demand it is constantly pausing.
It is worst then streaming off the internet - I am constantly having to hit the pause button in order to allow it time to 'buffer' and then still it cuts off and pauses on me.
How can I rectify this?

Can anyone help with this - so far its taken me 45 minutes to watch 7 minutes of a programme?
Thanks

Why do all videos I try to watch constantly pause??

Why do all videos I watch constantly pause??

Bonnie-
Frequent pauses might be explained by a slow Internet connection. If you see a dual progress bar, one is for viewing and the other is for downloading. When viewing catches up to downloading, a pause occurs until more data is downloaded.
To eliminate the pauses, stop the video and wait for it to completely download.

Issues with Zune music player pausing/stopping

So the main reason I got this was for the Zune music player. Has anyone else had issues with the music player pausing automatically? I was using it on a run and it worked fine for a while, then the songs would keep pausing automatically after about 10 seconds. I gave up after unpausing it like 20 times and finished my run in silence. Then today I was listening to the radio, everything was fine for 30 minutes or so, then it shut off. I took it out of my pocket and brought up the radio tuner, and it wouldn't let me change the station, it would just exit out of the screen automatically. Now, several hours later, it seems to be working fine.
Has anyone else had a similar issue? Is there a firmware upgrade or something I can run? Or do I just have a defective unit?

This is not a common problem, from what I've read. So if it were my device, I would get a warranty exchange. The Zune player is the best feature, so I wouldn't put up with the pauses you're describing.

URL constantly redirects to itself in Firefox

Hi
I have been investigating a problem on a microsoft forum. Each time i open a page on this forum in firefox, the page constantly redirects to itself. The url is this
http://windowslivehelp.com/thread.aspx?postid=F14713BF-E239-45C4-AA3A-8CA8DA0BBCBF#F14713BF-E239-45C4-AA3A-8CA8DA0BBCBF
The problem is not occurring in Internet Explorer or Google Chrome, just Mozilla Firefox. As you can see from the thread, it has been suggested that it is a problem with Firefox and that i ask for an explanation here

There is a script running on that page that doesn't seem to end and that keeps reloading the page endlessly.<br />
It happens with and without the anchor.<br />
Without the anchor the script adds the not working uppercase anchor, but even a lowercase version has the problem of reloading.

The reloading only stops if I disable JavaScript temporarily.

My keyboard (wired) has lost functionality on the music PLAY/PAUSE, FORWARD and BACK, and VOLUME KEYS. They do NOTHING. All else is fine. How can I reassign them correctly? (Don't see those functions listed with System Settings/Keybard shortcuts).

Crayolla,
Try doing a SMC and PRAM resets. Sometimes it takes 2-3 attempts for them to work so be a little persistent if they fail the first time.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Bluetooth problems with Xperia C4 - Android Wear - Motorola 360

Hello, I have a serious problem with my new Sony Xperia C4 Dual phone
I'm always losing the connection with my Motorola 360 smartwatch.The first time I start everything, I can pair my phone with my watch.
Everything is working fine (watchfaces, apps, notifications, etc).
But randomly (can be 1 hour or can be 1 day, when the phone is too far from the watch, after a phone restart, or ...) the Bluetooth connection is lost and will never come back.
If I could restart the connection that would not be that serious but... I can't!
Android Wear will then start hanging on "Connecting" state and it will not reconnnect until I completely restart the pairing process. The only way is to reconnect is :
1. Delete the watch in Motorola Connect
2. Delete the watch in Android Wear
3. Hard reset the watch (otherwise it's impossible to start the pairing process)
4. Turn off and turn on bluetooth on Xperia C4
5. Disconnect all other Bluetooth devices (like car audio and BSP10 Speaker)
6. Restart the pairing process
The whole process is taking about 15 minutes and 30% of the watch battery. (because every apps needs to be reinstalled) What I did so far and did not fix the random disconnection problem :
-Hard resetted 2 times the phone
-Hard resetted 4 times the watch (2x on 5.0 and 2x on 5.1 Android Wear)
-Restarted many times the phone
-Restarted many times the watch
-Tried with the "Sony Smart Connect App" disabled on the phone
-Tried without any extra app on the watch (uninstalled trackID or Sony Music, for example)
-Updated all the apps on the phone
-Tried with a "Blank" phone and "Blank" watch (did not install ANY application) What I can say :
-The problem occurs even in Android 5.0.2 or 5.1.1 on the watch (Motorola has just rolled out the 5.1.1 OTA)
-The problem occurs with different Moto 360 Watches (tried with the watch of a friend, same problems)
-The problem occurs only on the Xperia C4 (Dual) phone. (works great on a Zopo ZP999, Wiko Highway and Galaxy S3)
-Even after resetting, it is sometimes difficult to find the watch in the Bluetooth list, while every other phone can see the watch perfectly!
-Bluetooth hardware is working perfectly, because I can connect to my car, with my BSP10 speaker and another Bose SLIII Speaker. Additional information for the watch :Motorola 360 Watch Build LDZ220Android Wear 1.1.1.2006643Google Play Services 7.5.76 (2002306-534)Android Platform 5.1.1 Additional information for the phone :Android 5.0Model E5333 (Xperia C4 Dual)Build 27.1.B.1.81Smart Connect 5.7.18.401 (11 june 2015) What I think :
There is something that is preventing the watch from being connected properly in the Sony extra Apps.
I think the Smart Connect and Throw (and maybe other) extra apps are bringing a lot of trouble to the Bluetooth connection with the watch. Since 2 days, Motorola has just rolled out the 5.1.1 update of the Moto 360 watch, the update is now enabling WiFi.
I connected my watch to the wifi and the "Cloud sync" connection is working perfectly in Android Wear.
When there is no Wifi network, the phone/watch are trying to connect back with Bluetooth... and the problems can begin. Other problem : when the watch is connected to the phone, immediatly after making NFC contact with my Sony BSP10 speaker (to pair them), the connection is lost between the phone and the watch. So if I use my speaker i will have to hard reset my watch. In fact... every morning I take my watch and I need to start that f*c*in pairing process because of the software bug on the phone.Can somebody help here?
Is there any update planned? Thanks in advance, Guich

Hello Quester : Like I said, I tried with two different watches ( 2x moto 360) and the problem is still present.
So you can exclude there is something wrong with the watch.
I tried with 5.0.2 and 5.1.1 on the watch and it has no effect. My bluetooth hardware is working fine one the phone, too. (other devices are working, like speakers, car, laptop).So clearly, there is a SOFTWARE issue that drops the pairing and makes Android Wear losing the connection and never coming back. Yesterday everything was working fine until I used the BSP10 speaker, connection with the watch was lost.
I'm absolutely sure the problem is bound to Sony Smart Connect/Throw/whatever because on other phones it works perfectly!

[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.

Not able to configure Exchange mail account on Xperia Z1 (android version 4.4.2)

Hi,
I have updated the android version of my phone to the latest of kitkat (14.3.A.0.757). After which configuring the exchane mail (corporate mail account) but it is not configuring. Every time it keeps 'checking incoming server settings' for indefinite time. I thought it might be taking time so i left the phone in the same situation for overnight but no result in morning. It looks like a bug in the latest version of kitkat on Xperia. Please suggest a solution.

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
First make sure that you have a working Internet connection in the phone.
You can download Internet and MMS settings for your phone by going to Setting > More > Internet settings.
If you have a working Internet connection but still not able to connect to your E-mail server or sync your E-mails check that no Proxy server within your APN settings may be blocking this. You can check this by going to Settings > More (Wireless & networks) > Mobile networks > APN or Access Point Names > Your Internet APN. Check if any details are set for Proxy and Proxy port. If yes you can try to delete them (temporarily) and save the APN. Now check if you’re able to connect or sync with your E-mail server.
You can also verify suspected Internet connection issues by trying via a Wi-Fi network instead.
