did you recently do a backup? back in the day if i made a backup i would see the backup images in google play also ,, of course none played as they were just backups, if this is the case find the folder location of said backup and put the .nomedia file in the folder so the media scanner doesn't include in track listings
I don't have the songs anywhere else, they're just in the music folder
This happened to me too, I was using PowerAmp and Play Music. just deleted the cachè of both and restarted my nexus and it was solved. You should first do a ReScan of your library in your music player, then erase cache if it didn't fix the problem, and finally o another rescan.

I'm having a problem playing my music. Any application I use to play my music will only play the first song I select, but as soon as that song finishes, the entire application freezes and the only way I can close it is by using the task manager. Even if I try skipping the song mid-way, the application freezes. Anyone else experience/d this? Any help would be much appreciated.
I'm running on Froyo 2.2.1 DK28, ROM: AhmgskMod TrulyEpic V2.06.12.10
You deleted those 3 or so DRM APKs didn't you? My phone was always having this problem right after I flashed a new rom and I think I literally JUST found out what was causing it because my phone was doing it again after updating to DK28. Usually I go thru and delete all those APKs that I don't need and then set up my apps and I would havethe same exact problem as you describe weather I'm using the stock music app or mixzing or anything else. But now what I did was restore those 3 DRM APKs that I always delete first, rebooted, then sure enough I was able to skip forward without anything freezing. Then I went thru and deleted those three APKs again and then rebooted and I was still able to skip forward and back no problem.
So what I'm sayin I that I think you first need to play some music in the player or anything BEFORE you go and delete all those DRM related APKs otherwise you will run into this problem.

Ya. I did delete this apks. What do you reccomend I do? Can I just restore them now and then reboot my phone or do I have to completely re flash, play some music and then delete those apks?
Just try what I did and hopefuly it will fix it, I'm interested to see I it does fix it for you. Hopefully you made backups of all those DRM APKs that you had deleted, just restore them, reboot, play some music and see if it still freezes when you try to skip ahead, if it works then delete those APKs again, reboot and see if it still plays without freezing. That worked for me.
I might add that I deleted one APK at a time and rebooted after each delete because I was curious to see which one was causing the freezing but after each delete my music player still played fine. So I'm sure you can delete them all at once and still be fine

What I did was restore them (I had back ups), reboot the phone, then played a few songs (the music players were all working again, so the problem had to do with the drm apks), deleted the apks and then rebooted the phone again. Everything works fine now! Thanks a lot for the help
Glad to hear that fixed it for you as well. So then I must be right that you need to play some music or media files first before deleting those DRM APKs otherwise you will run into this issue. Maybe this is also the reason that my home encoded .mp4's that worked on my epic stock when I first got it would not play in the video player after messing around with deleting that stuff first, I will have to see when I get home from work.

I have attached the only DRM apk I have on my phone. I have never had any trouble with any music player.
Minor bug "report"... in case anyone else has this issue.
I downloaded some music last night using tTorrent and moved the folders to the Music folder on the sdcard after downloading. I went into Music and they appeared along with album art, etc but would not play. I received a terse "Sorry, this music file could not be played" error.
Fix: rebooting the phone.
Problem is reproducible.

Another fix might be to go to Settings->Application Manager->All->Media Storage and clear data.
All of my music is on a 200gb sd card. In google play music I created a number of playlists over a couple of days. I recently rebooted phone and noticed that most of the playlists had lost all of their songs. Rebooted again and another couple of playlists went the same way.
The music still exists on the sd card. The artists and albums are still present in the Play Music library and still play ok.
Anyone else had this.......or even better, a solution
Edit - seems to occur after a power off and power on rather than a reboot

I have done a few tests and can now say that the problem only exists if the playlist points to music on sd card. If the playlist points to music on internal storage then rebooting the phone does not affect the playlist.
Therefore it seems likely that rebooting the phone causes the path to the music files (on the sd card) to change, so play music can no longer find the songs even though they still exist on the sd card.
PS......emailed Samsung Support, their reply was that rebooting the phone causes all of the music files on the device to be deleted (even though I explained that my music is on sd card not device memory and that the music files still exist, just they don't show up in the playlist)
What about trying another music player, or another playlist format (like M3U, but maybe for that u need another music player too)... in my personal experience, the music was the biggest problem because I feel like Goole Play Music is worst that windows media player xD, and actually find a good media player is so hard, but never tried GPM, so maybe is a problem from the app and no the phone itself

Yeah, using Poweramp now..........and I've found I prefer it to GPM so should be grateful that I had the problem

Yeah.. annoying as.. Wasted hours putting playlists together on Music Player only to have contents get deleted when power off / on.. Read something about being able to make sd card 'adoptable storage' by tweeking developer options.. may give this a try, but it involves formatting the current sd card, so plan to try when i have some time..

Okay guys this one gets me...
I have done a lot to try and figure this out but this is such a weird problem I had to make this post. (I feel like the answer must be something simple!!)
Anyways so I just recently moved my entire iTunes library to my Mac(Hackintosh) because I like Mac more. So moved all my songs to iTunes on the Mackintosh HD. All good there.
When I went and deleted all my music off my Nexus 6P to go and re-sync it with the new library everything went fine as well.
BUT now for some RANDOM reason, like probably 80% if my tracks have the same album art work... not all of them though, just like most of them... SO ANNOYING.
TO NOTE:
- I use iSyncr to transfer all my music from my iTunes to my android device. works great and always has.
- I use BlackPlayer as my main music player. Has worked great so far..
- When I open my GOOGLE PLAYER (think this is the stock audio player idk) all the tracks in question all have the same album art but its a different album art........ wtf
- My iTunes library is fine and all album art is correct. Not all tracks have art but thats fine..
WHAT I HAVE TREID:
- Deleted entire music library and iSyncr app off device and re-synced everything with no luck..same problem
- Deleted black player and all associated files on device. no luck
- Tried multiple music players and all have the same problem. Almost all tracks that didn't have any album artwork on my device now have A$AP Rockys album cover as their image... but in black player the album cover they all have is one from Adventure Club...
- Used a 3rd party album artwork software to delete the troublesome artwork. no luck, doesn't work.
I am so frustrated has anyone ever has this issue? I Googled and couldn't get any hits. Thanks guys.
I got the same issues as well... will keep a watch on this thread to see if some1 posts some help

Strangest part is I had been using it for months on windows before and never had this issue. Even my other macbook it worked fine :/
Anyone?

Something wasn't working right so this thread helped me. Deleted the app from my phone completely and all my music again as well as reinstalled it on my mac and updated the iTunes settings. album art works now and I am so happy.
Guy I have installed Poweramp yesterday and since then it is showing scanning library. Although no files are seen in album or artist or genre. While songs are seen in all songs only. I tried clearing data and cache. Uninstall and reinstalled. Nothing helped. Please help.
I use poweramp too, but i select my music folder manually instead of scanning all device

try using vlc media player for android it supports lot of file extensions for music.
try the alpha or beta builds, they arent in the play store so you have to google for the apk

I use PowerAmp.
Check your microSD card if that is where your library is.
I haven't had any issues.
try rebooting your phone. I had issues before my replacement that every now and then the android media scanner would stop working and newly added music, ringtones, photos, etc wouldn't show up in the apps or settings until i rebooted the phone. that includes poweramp. it wouldn't' see the new stuff either till reboot. if that's the case maybe a reset would fix the problem. i hadn't had the problem with the replacement phone.

Go to settings, apps, show system apps, find media storage, clear cache and data.
Reboot the phone and wait for the background media files indexing process to complete.

How to know background media files indexing process is complete ? No notifications shown.
I waited for 3 minutes to let that thing happen in background if it's happening at all. I noticed in same settings the data gone up from 0bytes to 15mb and i guess it's done..
Still Poweramp after doing rescan and waited for 20minutes don't really show a change. Songs are seen under all songs. But empty under artist album etc.
Under folder option it shows something else... Attached pics below
Do you see all your albums listed on the LG music player?

If nothing works, you may want to give the PowerAmp 3.0 Alpha versions a try...
Just my two cents
