Hi everyone!
I want to use the stock Music Player app that my SGH-I747m came with but it doesn't seem to work when I drag and drop my music which are mp3s into /sdcard/music/ALBUM-NAME/all songs here....
It shows the same screen which is to add music, drag and drop from your computer.....
Does this happen for anyone else or is there a silly fix that I can't seem to do.
Thanks!
Michael

Forgot to mention, I am on my Mac (Mountain Lion 10.8.2) and installing Kies with the manual installation from the extraction of the pkg doesn't work for me either. So Keis isn't an option.

So if i understand you correctly, you are having trouble with playing the music after you load the music on the phone?
Of thats the case, just reboot the phone after you load the music. I downloaded music for example and had to reboot it to see the music in the stock music player.

Well I put the music in the /sdcard/Music/ALBUM-NAME/_______.mp3 and it doesn't recognize it in the Music Player app, even after several reboots. I am using the internal SD card (16GB) not any external card.
Put it here instead. See if this works for you.
It is the default area for music by the app.

Oh! It worked! Yay thanks!
Just now I see double listings of each Album in the "Albums" screen of Music Player... Hopefully this will fix itself...
NEVERMIND! I understand why!

My droid stock didn't thats what I use before I got galaxy.
Seems like that would waste alot of bandwidth. Why not just download the songs

Then that would be a bug in the Droid. All android phones are programmed to stop playing YouTube when locked aas far as I know. (I'm 99% sure)

The only torrent I ever used was supernova.com or something like that. once that closed out I never found one I trusted to use. Do you know any?
yeah isohunt and piratesbay work pretty good. You can even download single songs just download the torrent for the artists whole album and just select whatever song you like and click off the ones you dont want

If u stream music and don't mind the data usage, use food's music streamer from market. U can search and play pretty much any any song u can think of. Tuneun Radio is also good. Both these apps play with screen off/lock
Thank you ill give this a shot
This might work. Haven't tried it myself

Hey guys my complete music library isnt showing up on my arc however it works on my other phones? any Idea what it can be, Ive used google music and the default one and both have the same problem
Go to the app and clear its cache. See if that helps.
Also, have a quick browse and check whether there's a .nomedia file in your music folder.
Questions go in the Q&A section

it might help if we had a little more information like which music app and what rom? I think if you put .nomedia file in the root of your picture folder will solve this but not sure if that will stop the gallery from reading it.
Sorry running on stock jb rom rooted and its the Samsung music player

Hello XDA...just wanted to share about an annoyance of CM9 Apollo Player...mostly when mp3 files are being downloaded and moved to external sd cards...the Apollo Player gives error and doesn't play them...even after reboot...so i have got a simple solution for those who don't know how to deal with this....
Install "Rescan Media" from play store and run the app...it will automatically rescan media in a second without even notifying...now go to Apollo and run your downloaded music....it works!
Please hit thanks if this little tip helped you...!

Its not a problem with Apollo although it is a **** music player to begin with but with the media storage not being able to scan it yet or finished scanning and missed the file. Nonetheless if you use a music player like PowerAMP then you won't have that problem.

It would be better to download 20kb app of scanning media...who does scan your phone within 1 second....than having 2 music players...anyway

i hated apollo music player..
I need to ask, is any body else annoyed that when you add a song onto a playlist in the play music app it goes All the way to the bottom to the playlist. So you have to scroll all the music to reach the latest song you added onto the playlist. Is there a solution to this, is it just me?
YES!!! So annoying. However, I used to use DoubleTwist and it did the same thing.
So you're saying that the app is adding songs to your playlist in the same order that you added them?! Must be a bug.
I like my apps to randomly order things without my input...

No, but i much rather be given the option to arrange my songs from recently added, down to oldest. It is much better then scrolling through 50+ songs just to hear the latest one i added to my playlist. Play music used to order songs like this but at some point it changed. The option would be nice.

Agreed.
This and the fact Google Music doesn't have a podcast subscription feature are my two biggest complaints.
I though it could be adjusted online? I mean, it sucks to have to do that but I'm sure they'll get it sorted out. I'll have to logon my computer (what's that??) and see if I can reorder a playlist.

I've looked all thru my library on my computer and can't seem to find where to re-order the playlist.
