Try rebooting your phone.
I've had the same problem before and it seems the media monitor daemon needs to be kicked up the backside to actually check for new media and update the database.
It does this on bootup so it's usually a good way to go!

If you update your music or other media often you could try one of these apps.

I tried both of those things but still nothing. Does it have to do with itunes or something idk?

what is the location of your music? is it <sdcard_root>\music?
check to see if there's a .nomedia in <sdcard_root> or <sdcard_root>\music.
if there is the music player will ignore any media in that folder or subfolders.

I deleted the original one and created a new one myself and it is mnt/sd/music

might sound crazy, but what format are the music files? If you synced with iTunes it could have sent them at iTunes format and the Streak can't read it maybe? If they were synced as MP3 then that's a moot point obviously, but any suggestion is worth a try!
I don't use iTunes (library is FLAC and I send to => format converter in Winamp with output directory set to SD Card) so I have no idea if Android/Streak can play iTunes M4A or AAC or whatever format they use other than MP3

the mediaserver (what normally plays music for most players) can handle aac+mp4, which is the default format that itunes uses.
If his music is in ALAC then i dont believe the default player can handle that. I dont know if his player uses media server's decoder or it's own custom decoder.

Im trying to use amazon mp3 player or google music

Playlist

Can anyone advise me an app just to create a playlist by selecting a folder with music files in it, so that it can be used by the stock music player too (also pls advise where to save/copy the playlist and which format should be used; m3u, pls, or..)
Thx
Is that so hopeless..? Noone replied to my query so far.
Just would like to know if there is a such, simple app for creating playlist based on the folders, and used with built-in music player as well. The stock player can't do that as you know well.

You want to do this right on the device, and not on PC/Mac and then sync/transfer?
try doubletwist on pc/mac if not on computer then im not sure. Mortplayer?? do a search on andlib
i hv found an app, "just playlist", with this you can create playlist for all or just selected contents of a folder (exactly as what I want it to do) but the matter is the playlist file is not seen/found by the music player.

Well, from my understanding you are looking to have the correct album art for each song/album on your phone correct? This problem plagued me for a while, I couldn't find an easy way to automatically embed the album art into the id3 tags for songs on the computer... so I starting looking at apps for android. easiest way BY FAR is to buy the donate version of Cover Art Downloader. It will embed the album art into the mp3 file so you can copy em all to your pc and the album art will stick with it.
The free version of the app doesn't embed the art into the mp3's id3 tags but it will still work to show you the art on your phone if that's all you are wanting.
I also did album art grabber its because when i download them the description is not well filled out even if i change them whit mp3 tag it still mixed up

you don't have to format your sd card; probably wouldn't hurt.
You should take all your music off of your sd and consolidate into one music folder on your computer; Music-->Artist-->Albums and/or Songs-->Songs.
Throw it into either itunes for that what ever fixer finder thing it has, or better yet throw it into winamp as local media and go through song by song (you can select multiples) ctrl+e to open up up the file(s) to edit the metadata so you can format each/all the songs to uniform artist/albums/titles.
also for artwork you can select songs and press alt+3 and click on the Artwork tab and then download artwork there's also an auto-tag feature on the default tab (doesn't always work)
So i should grab winamp on my pc ? Ill try that and my musics are all into sdcard/music there isnt any other folders in it should i add ? Album>artist >songs?

Music player issue

Ever since I upgraded to 2.2.2 . My music on my sd card doesnt show up in the music player. All my songs are on the sd card . I have to go into the sd card and individually select a song to play. Can anyone help?
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
I have my music on my sd card and have no issues. I use Playerpro and have used PowerAmp, I am on a stock rom (BB 351), and my music is in MP3 format.
Are you using the stock music player? What rom are you using? What is the folder structure that you are using? Have you checked for a .nomedia file in your music directory? What format is your music in?
Im using stock 2.2.2 . And my music is in wma format. But it was all available in the music player before the upgrade.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
wma is not in the list of audio formats supported by Android natively.
PlayerPro (my current music player) will play wma files when selected from the file manager but does not show them in the music list, either in library or folder view.

Music player

OK, I've searched all over the forums and the market and google, but I have yet to find a player that does what I'm looking for... All I want is a "dumb" player. My requirements are this: play by folder, system library with selectable folder scans so it doesn't play ringtones and notifications as music and simple playlist management i.e. Add folder... essentially like winamp for windows. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I've tried doubletwist mixzing and winamp and all have some of what I want but none have all. Help please...

try poweramp
Just try ttpod, wow thats amazing music player and its free...
Sent from my LG-P500
Only problem with ttpod is when selecting a music folder the songs play out of order. My mp3 collection is organized artist> album> (track number) - (song name).mp3 it keeps wanting to play based on (song name) alphabetically. Anyone know any way to fix this? Power amp is great but as limited as my income is, I can't justify paying 4.99 for an app.
