I recently bought an album off of the market place. When I went to play the newly bought music it informed me that I needed to upgrade my music player. I selected to upgrade and it took me to the app called google music. Clicked to download and install. Program downloads then acts like it's installing but installs an app called "music" and the google music install process just hangs.
I tried removing my sd card, wifi on/off, restarted and still no luck. Has anyone else experienced this issue? I'm now stuck with a new album that i'm not able to listen to on my phone.

"Music" is Google Music. Its labeled different once in your app drawer

So earlier I ran into the glitch where at about 64 songs the music player starts to glitch up and force close badly. I had just put a few songs from my computer onto my phone. So I just mass deleted a lot of music files using androzip. My problem now is that the image and title of the songs is still there but if I click on it, it says the file doesn't exist. If I long press it or try to mass delete them within the music player app it just force closes. So how do I resolve this problem?
Try wiping data on app
1) open app
2) hold home
3)click task manager
4) touch app name
5) wipe app data

I have a question regarding the twiz music player. I'm on jellyb and somehow my stock music player or the Walkman can't "see" some of my music even thought they're in mp3 format. I've tried renaming the damn songs and they still don't pop up. I am able to play them using es explorer and having it play through stock app but it's just not popping up. Any ideas of how I could fix this?

If you just put on phone you might need to rescan media. There are apps in play store to force a rescan. Then I had a problem in the past where a app was creating a .nomedia file so the media scanner skipped that folder.

Almost like deja vu. Having the same issue in either the stock music player or Play Music. Just moved over to Note 2 from S3 and didn't have this happen on S3. Tried unmounting and mounting external SD card so as to force a rescan, no dice.
So i just rebooted the phone, went to Music Player and it's blank, says i have no music on phone. While contemplating what to do next (including downloading a re-scan media app from the market) i just let it alone and a minute later all my music started showing up and populating. I guess it took its sweet time to re-scan or get it's head right.

Only other couple things off the top of my head would be go to settings and application manager find the music player and try clearing data. My guess is that won't work since it's multiple players. Other thing I know some songs I downloaded from a mp3 app before didn't show until I updated the id3 tag for some reason. The ones that didn't show had a bunch of garbage in the id3 mostly random symbols. Once they got corrected they started showing up for me. But that was when I had my epic touch. Hope it works for ya.

Hi, I'm using a Tmobile Galaxy S3 running stock rooted 4.1.2 and I have uninstalled the default music app from samsung because I don't like it.
I'd like to set Google's Play Music app as my default. I do have Amazon's MP3 Player because there are vouchers for free mp3s' every now and then.
The problem is that when I enter my car, bluetooth starts automatically the Amazon MP3 Player instead of the Play Music app. Same case when I plug in my headphones and press play it launches Amazon MP3 app. As of now I froze the app using Titanium Backup, but that is a workaround only.
How can I make the Play Music my Default music app?
Undefault the amazon app by going through settings and apps manager and unselecting default app.

At first I thought this will work but the app is not set to default.
Than that is weird lol. I don't use the app so I can't tell you on what to do. Never seen this brought up either, at least not in our section. It isn't an S3 only issue so you may want to try Googling it.

I've started using universe S4 Rom ver.3.0 and I'm not having any problems.

So I use Google Play music for my songs with n play, select, and skip tracks with the widget. It used to work fine but now it often pauses the song when I press the menu square on the widget, shows a loading circle, and then takes me to the menu. This is hurting my workout. Is this firmware issues, a bad update, or BC I pulled my SD card without unmounting it recently (that's where ALL my songs are)?

I personally don't thinks its any issue with your SD card.. Best way to find out if it is.. Is by playing it on the stock music player or another music.. And it sounds like it might be an app issue
Its with the most recent update of Google Play Music.

I'd personally jjust switch to something else, I use now playing music player has a good shuffle options for playlist and music it just seems know how to pick the favorite or genres correctly compared to poweramp
yea, turns out its just the update, as I switched back to the factory widget and it works perfectly.
Im on stock rooted 4.3 and my stock music player keeps crashing everytime I try to go the playlists section. I never had this problem with 4.1.2
I tried the usual fixes (clear app data and cache, force stop, reboot) but to no avail.
One thing I noticed was that when I go to my files and open the folder called playlists its empty. Could this be causing a problem ?

Might be your sd card...I had a similar problem with my gallery. ...every time I tried to view images that were saved to sd the gallery would force close.

Thanks for your response but im pretty sure the problem isnt the sd card as all my songs are on there and I can play them all just fine I just can't seem to access any playlists.

I've got the same issue.
I can play all my songs, but when I click on the playlist icon it crashes.
If I go to the songlist, I can select a song and go to add to playlist, then select a playlist and it will add it. I can then play the playlist whjile I am there. But if I go straight to playlists it crashes before it lets me select a playlist.
I have tried wiping data and cache.
I have also tried unmounting the SD card and running the player with just a few songs on the internal memory. Same issue - I select playlists and it crashes. It worked fine for 6 months before this proiblem started. Very frustrating.
