Looking to figure out if its possible to arrange music view in the Google Play Music App.
For example: When viewing Albums for a specific artist, I Would like to sort albums out by YEAR opposed to Alphabetical order.
If this is not possible, where can this be mentioned as an improvement to the app to Google?
Bump
I don't think it's possible. I was wondering the same thing.

having trouble with adding songs from my library to offline , i click on some songs and it doesnt have a option to add to offline library.
Also where are all the offline songs stored, what if I want to delete my stored songs , how do i do that?
Through the google music app. Select the song or album you want, long press-add instant mix. Then go to the instant mix-menu-make available offline.

Is anyone else having problems sharing a song public on Google+ from the Google Music App?

where are the offline songs stored? interesting question??
Music files are stored here:
Sdcard/Android/data/com.google.Android.music/cache/music
I have been trying to figure a way to make use of this because it would be nice if there were other music apps that could take advantage of these songs but have had no luck.

PowerAmp lets you select which folders to scan for music, so selecting the cache folder for Google Music makes those songs available to PowerAmp. And PowerAmp really is one of the best music apps available. I wish Google would release APIs making our cloud-stored music available to any app that uses them.

Hi there,
I'm really new to android so please bear with me...
I have been using the Music app on my new nexus as a general music player for my android. I just noticed an mp3 on there that I didn't want so I held my finger on it and hit delete.
The message that came up said that the only version that would be deleted would be the "side-loaded" version, and the automatic upload to google music would remain.
Now from what I gather google music isn't open to the UK anyway, but I don't wanna use it when it's out, and I certainly don't want an auto upload using up data, but I can't see a setting to turn it off.
Is there one? Or do I need to download winamp or something else to use as my native music player to stop it?
Thanks for any help. It's massively appreciated.
As someone outside of the U.S. I noticed that too however, I connected to Google Music (via tunnel bear) but didn't see any tracks uploaded or listed.

maybe its just a standard warning message in the app for when you delete a track?
You're probably right. I don't think they'd have done a UK only version of music just to adjust that message.
Once google music is open in the UK though (which I assume it will be at some point) all my music is going to start uploading, which is pretty annoying.
I'm in Australia and have been using the music app for a few months now. As far as I know, it does not upload music stored on the phone. There is a program that you can download from the google music website which will allow you to upload your music collection or only specific songs from your computer to the cloud. You can then access the uploaded music files from the app on your phone.

As the title says, is there any way to backup the offline music from Google Music? I don't want to keep losing it.
Thanks
The way Google music stores the mp3 is a royal pain. Its not named semantically or tagged properly.
The reason after trying one album I ditched their model and continued to manage my collection on my own hardware and use Amazon mp3 to buy music.

Google music is by far my preferred app to stream my music, but as much as I like it I hate the fact that the widget does not display the album art. I tried Pure Music Widget in hopes to circumvent the problem but all it displays is a picture of a blank cd.
Are there any hacks or alternatives that could fix this? And by alternatives I mean not an entirely new based cloud service but something that ties into Google Music.
Offline Music Importer in the play store (not free despite listed as free) will allow you to use google music tunes in other apps, not very intuitive though. I think I read the paid version of double twist can see offline google music also.

True however for me what's the point of having streaming music if I have to download to my phone. I was looking for something that can stream from my Google account and display the album art in the widget

The widget doesnt show album art because Google didnt design it that way. Plain & simple.
Yes I know that which is why I was asking if there was a hack or an alternative app that ties into Google Music to achieve that function.
Anyone looking for a music streaming app should check this out. Its like the Russian Facebook but it has music and video streaming services and you can create playlists, add favorites and it even caches the songs you play often. Make sure to get the one with the black icon though, because the official one with the blue icon removed the music feature
