Are you sure you have more than just that album synced to the watch? The shuffle button works fine for me.

I found that I could only shuffle individual albums too.
I got round this by creating a new playlist in Play Music which contained all of my music.
Once you tag it for download it'll transfer onto the SW3 and you can shuffle the playlist (i.e. all of your music).
Thanks! i will create a playlist for the SW3 use and copy music again..

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.

can somebody explain a way to do this? take out the m3u file from an itunes playlist so that my music on my galaxy nexus is organized..
Have you checked into DoubleTwist? I think that does what you're looking for.
Can you explain the problem a bit more? I just copy over my music and the Music app sorts it by artist, album, etc for me. (Actually it pulls it all from Google Music... uploaded all my music as soon as Google Music came out.)
DoubleTwist will pull in your playlists from iTunes and sync them with your phone. You'll need to use the DoubleTwist player on your phone too, though.

I recommend this also. I was using iOs for years and had setup smart playlists based on ratings. iSyncr and its widget work well to keep that going.

Ditto on Google Music. The music manager automatically uploads your music (even adjusted music - album covers, renames, etc) as well as any playlists you make in itunes. That's the way I do it. Requires no effort at all.

this requires data if streaming and i dont think the music quality would be the same when uploading to google music and then downloading it back to the phone
theres no way of just taking a playlist from itunes and uploading it to your phone then taking the m3u file and just adding it to the same folder?
no, iTunes sync is DRM encrypted so you cant do it directly from what I understand.
You can try finding a PC based app but iSyncr is cheap and works great. It has a PC only app.
You could import your library to Winamp or other player and directly sync also.
Maybe you can fool iTunes into thinking your phone is a data disc and import music that way but that sounds like a lot of work.

I run into this... 90% of my library transferred to Google Music okay, the other 10% (especially my Lonely Island albums) is DRM protected and short of burning them to a CD I have yet to find something that will remove it on them. Doubletwist doesn't even see them (I put them all into a playlist by themselves)... More reasons to hate Apple (but applaud their ability to monopolize and make money)...
Needless to say, I haven't bought anything from iTunes since summer so I can avoid this...

As some others in this thread have already stated, the iSyncr app available in the Android Market can do what you want. It allows you to see all the playlists you currently have in iTunes and select which ones you want to import onto your Android-based phone. After you've selected which playlists you want it will sync them (and the relevant song files) to your phone. After that your music app of choice on your phone should be able to see the playlists.
I use an iMac at home with iTunes and have a GSM Galaxy Nexus and use the above scenario all the time to sync my playlists from iTunes to my GNex.
I use Google Music but if you want to sync your iTunes library or playlists, double twist is definitely the way to go. And it DOES play fine with the default Music app, it just mirrors your iTunes music folder to your phones music folder, which the stock Music app scans.

Sync with Google Music over Wifi, no data required when playing offline music.
Google Music doesn't do any transcoding if your music is in MP3 format. If it's in other formats it will do transcoding.
The Android Music player supports .m3u playlists, so you can export your playlists from iTunes in .m3u format, then copy the playlist to your phone in the same folder hierarchy, and the media scanner will then read the playlist.
Nevermind i found a way, isyncr wasnt working out for me on my mac (playlists werent showing up, music was getting deleted.. etc..) so i got this app from the mac app store called Playlist Export and it works great. Heres the link http://www.ericdaugherty.com/apps/playlistexport/

Wait, you have to pay to export your playlists from iTunes? It doesn't have that function built-in?

^ I think the app is free, so not AS bad. But this whole MTP thing is rough for Mac owners. I've been trying for a while to figure out a free way to get my girlfriend's playlists from her macbook to her GNexus.
I'm going to give that app a shot later today, but if anyone has any other good ideas (other than the wifi add-ons for iSyncr and DoubleTwist), let me know. I'd appreciate it.
actually, itunes supports m3u now.. just click file > library > export playlist, then choose m3u and add that too your music folder on phone with the music in it !!!!!

^ I was pretty happy to discover that earlier, and exported all the .m3u playlists to her phone via dropbox. I had all of the mp3 songs loaded for each playlist that I was going to transfer over, but when I opened the .m3u files, it gives me an error message saying "Error playing the requested track." I'm guessing the issue is that the .m3u file isn't in the same folder as the rest of the music files. If I used a file manager app and moved the .m3u into the music file, would that help?
Also, I have tried using doubletwist with airsync, which works for transferring songs, but doesn't give me playlists on her phone. I've tried dragging and dropping the playlists onto her phone, and I've tried letting doubletwist sync them completely.
I'm pretty much out of ideas at this point. If anyone has worked out any sort of solution with a Mac, please let me know!
Cheers
i use doubletwist, syncs everything
Hello!
Though I have HTC phones for 2 years, I never used them for music play.
I bought the Stereoclip yeaterday and I am ''obliged'' to use the HOX to stream music as my cowon J3 BT volume is too low and crappy.
Now to focus on the question here, is there any way to play songs per folder?
I always divide my songs by genre in folders like ''Trance'' ''Rock'' ''80s''...
Ok the HTC music player can play by genre but unfortunetly my mp3s are nothing but well ID3taged + I don't want to put 500 songs in a genre.
So please how can I play by folder?
Any modified htc music app for that purpose?

I would create your own playlists with the Names of the genres you are using.
You can also add sources from DropBox etc this could be a good idea if you want to keep the space on your device free for apps etc.
To do this, goto your music play, click the "Settings" top right corner and click "Add Music source"
Hope this helps my friend.

Forget the dropbox thingy with our very limited 3G network in Lebanon (20 to 100mb per month), or else I would have used Tuneinradio in my car all the time
I think I will install a 3rd party app though I would have preffered to do it with the HTC music app

Okay, heres three options and I can't think of any other way for you to do it, I hope this is helpful.
1 - Obviously you could use another music player, such as WinAmp.
2 - Sort your music into the folders you want, get a file explorer (I Use ESFileExplorer) go on that, navigate to the folder, long press and then click "Music" that folder will then be loaded by itself into the music, Long winded I know but you can still use the stock app.
3 - Create playlists and just name the playlists by the folder.
2 is probably your best bet !
Thanks dude!
I will try playlist to begin with, if it's a pain in the as* I will install a good 3rd party app.
Btw which one is the best (music quality) and has lockscreen controls?

No worries mate
Tbh never used a third party music player, as in my opinion they are never as loud or clear as the stock. Perhaps that could be sorted if you know what to do with an equaliser, but I don't haha.
Couple of Suggestions that I know are good music players:
DoubleTwist - GirlFriend uses this, its free, very smart and sleek looking, and has many functions. Including the lock screen control you asked for. I'd take a look at this.
Player Pro - Looks very capable but never had an experience with it.
Also
WinAmp - Has been around for long time, before android even existed as it was a PC music player, hense the "Win" for "Windows"
I had a good look at PlayerPro, this could be a brilliant option for you, its got everything you've previously mentioned, playing by folder, lock screen controls. etc etc
Hi mate,
here's what I did on my HTC Desire X. You create a folder with a specific name where you put all your music and then in the Music app on HTC Android, you Search for that folder. It then shows up under Albums and you are able to play only the tracks contained in that Album/folder. For the folder names, they have to be somewhat unique, if you have a lot of music on your phone because otherwise it's gonna getm mixed up.
Hope it helps!
Since Sense 4+ we can use folders play in the HTC Music app
I just found an easy solution to the problem.
1. Organize all your songs on your phone under folders as you like
2. Connect your phone to a PC
3. Open Windows Media Player
4. Select all songs from one folder (on the phone) and add to Windows Media Player Playlist
5. Rename Playlist according to your preference
6. Save the playlist
7. Copy the playlist from your music folder on your PC and paste it on your phone in the Music folder
8. The playlist will now be available on your stock music player
Hi guys..
I'm looking for a way to control my music player.
Specifically the ability to fast forward/rewind within a song track... (or even better if it can do track-bar scrubbing) from my watch.
I've been searching around for apps and i couldn't find any with such functionality so far.. Anyone here have any ideas? maybe some tasker gurus...?
Thanks!
other than the skip forward or back songs?

Yup. I know there are quite a number of wear apps that support skipping tracks and adjusting volume..
I'm looking for a way to "rewind" or "fast forward" to a specific part of a song..
Any ideas?

Hi all,
I didn't see this posted, and I don't think this is currently possible (at least no application to do it yet, seems like with root we could do anything right??) but is there a way to transfer mp3 files to the watch? I don't use Google Play Music for anything and have all my mp3s on my computer and phone. This doesn't allow them to transfer through Play Music.
Any methods on how to put mp3s on the watch to enable listening via bluetooth headphones directly to the watch?
Thanks!
Use Sony's Walkman app. You should find a download link on xperiablog.net

So how does one actually transfer the files on there? Messing with the Walkman app ti seems to be just a music player. What I am hoping to do, however, is transfer mp3s onto the watch itself and play from it directly.. (such as not needing my phone when running).
Create new playlist. This can then be synced to a Wear device (over BT).
Awesome! Thank you! Working good from my note 4!
