How do I get my music player to not play my ringtones? I have them in a separate folder yet they still play. Do i just have to rely on playlists?

Try creating an empty text file named .nomedia place it in the folder with your ringtones.

Back when I used to own an HTC Titan, I had to put my ringtones inside of the Windows Folder to make them be recognized as ringtones, and that used to work well for me to prevent windows media player to read them.
Here in android, I'm thinking it might be similar, but I'n a noob in android and I don't know the OS structure very well, so I hope this makes sense to someone and can reply back to us.
Ok sorry about that didn't think it would block them from being seen as ringtones all together. As the post above states mabey putting them in the system ringtone folder might let them be ringtones but not be recognized by media player. To do this you will need to be rooted and then move them to /system/media/audio/ringtones. Just throwing stuff out there i'm still pretty noobish.

it'll find them anywhere, as long as it's not in (or underneath) a folder with a .nomedia marker file in it.
Just make a music folder if there already is not one, put them there. I think Android searches the whole phone for tracks anway.

Is there a way to keep my phone from picking gvoice files up in my music
Sent from my LT18i using XDA
I'm not sure what they are, are they required by an application? Any files I don't want to be scanned I just put into a directory that begins with a . Which 'hides' the folder, but can still be read by a file explorer.

Does anyone know any apps that delete any duplicates on your music library?

There's this thing called "Windows Explorer" it magically lets you see what is on the storage devices and delete the duplicates by simply right clicking and "deleting".
Hope that helps
I turned my phone off and on and now my SD card isn't being read. My phone says it's mounted and I can go into it with Root Explorer and mess with anything and everything, but when I go into Apollo or Google Play Music, no music is shown, and when I go into gallery, no pictures are shown. How do I fix this?
Check for a .nomedia file on the root of your sd card.

I found it and deleted it, but no luck. Still can't find music files and pictures in Gallery.
Did you reboot after and verify it was gone? Also look in your music and picture directories for that file and remove it. Then reboot.

I thought so too. A reboot doesn't matter when it comes to that. I got so mad at my phone when it was a simple solution... -__-

I can't get any music player to recognize and use music from the music folder of my Micro SD card. It just shows a few songs that are on my internal SD. Astro File Manager won't even pay them for me. Is there anything I can do to get my music to show up? If it helps, I'm on the M1 build.

Perhaps files became corrupt? Try downloading playing something new.

It worked for the most part. I had to download a song from the Web on my phone, then re copy the songs from my laptop to the SD card. But it all ended up working that way. Thanks for the help!
