Not sure whats going on but it will not see any songs that I uploaded from my PC (2000 songs). There is no button to "sync" the device in either the Music app or in settings/account/gmail. I've installed the app 3 times with the same results. Is there a trick or something? Running GB 2.3.3
Silly question, but did you try a reboot? I have heard that has helped some.

Yes I have, many times
GOT IT!!!
Downloading the app from the market via the phone gave me the problem. I removed the app then from my laptop I pushed the install via the market website and then everything worked. very odd.
Odd indeed

I noticed I have to give it some time to sync after I install it. Also there IS a check box in android accounts settings to enable syncing.
Yup. Enable syncing. I use the power control widget so I only sync when I'm listening to my music.

I've noticed that if it does not sync right away (or after a few hours), Then clear the data on the Google music app. To do so: Go to settings>Applications>Manage Applications and find Google music, then select clear data. Once that is finished go back into Google music and you should be able to pull up the menu and select settings. Then just select your gmail account again and it should start syncing almost immediately.

thats exactly what i have to do too. have to do it just about every time i install music beta.
Yea, I'm having issues too. Shouldn't Music come up in Account & Sync in settings? I don't seem to have it listed anymore.
Thanks. Clearing data fixed the problem.
Just for anyone else having a problem, an issue I ran into was everytime I flashed a new nightly for CM7, it counted as a new device being added to my account. Eventually I was maxed out on allowed devices (think it might be 8 but don't remember) and it wouldn't sync new songs for me anymore. I had to clear the devices from the music beta page itself to fix the problem.

That worked for me. I can sync again. Thank you!
I think the Google music app sucks. Thats right, it sucks.
I have tried deleting the app from my phone and my pc, then reloading.
What happens to me is when I reload everything, it syncs the same old songs. I have deleted them from everywhere, changed the folder, deleted the folder and created a new one.....same music.....that doesnt exist any more. When I select the folder to sync, it shows the correct number of songs for the new folder but then syncs a different number.....and music that doesnt even exist on my CPU anymore.
Makes no sense to me.
Also, theres no way to delete or hide a song on my device. I know theres a menu choice to hide unavailable but that doesnt work either.
Severe FAIL on Google. BOOOOOOOOOOOO
I had this problem a lot. After installing Music from the Market place, go into App Management and "Clear Data". When you load Music again, it will have a settings menu now to select your account. Although, I think this issue was fixed on newer GB versions because I didn't have to do it when I fresh installed on .605.
Just another Android glitch
"I've noticed that if it does not sync right away (or after a few hours), Then clear the data on the Google music app."
I just crossed over to Android and got the GS2. Figured I'd get one of the flagship devices. I figured Android must be good; it's so popular.
I've never used a phone with so many work-arounds, glitches... needed to download so many programs just for a loud & repeating calendar alarm... stores photos to 10 different folders.
Now I have to clear data for every sync I want to do w/ my clouded music? Why didn't I just get an iPhone? The bigger question is, how is it that Android has repeat customers? Maybe Android buyers are all first-time smartphone users and don't know any better. These types of bugs and glitches common to Android are not standard far on iPhone or even my older Nokia N-Series and BlackBerrys.

Had this problem a hundred thousand times before I enabled journaling. I forget exactly what I did. What I cleared exactly. But I think on mine I cleared cache of contacts in titanium. And then google services framework. Sorry I can't be more help but that's roughly how I fixed it. Don't worry to much, it's very annoying but it is fixable. And also when you do get it sorted flash journaling on zip. Fyi I found all the info I needed with a few google searches.

You basically have two options, you can Odin and start again or wipe everything 3x and re-flash the ROM. once it boots, you can power down, wipe everything 3x and restore a nandroid backup. Some people have had success wiping app data then booting to recovery and wiping cache and Dalvik. That works sometimes but the other two methods will eliminate the error. Make sure you are running journal on for stability

I reflashed and wiped the first few times that happened. After that I got away with clearing contacts and google service. So 3 options atleast in my experience.

Are you restoring data? It may be corrupted. Restore an older backup after all the wipes or best yet don't restore anything and download your apps fresh from the market and don't forget to enable journaling.

I had this problem span over to good nands that I knew for a fact were good backups (restored many times). The only way to fix it is use Odin, once this was done my nands were good again, free of FC's, go figure o_0 .
Same thing as the op....urban vendetta...ill try to odin/repartition to try to fix nand errors
Great advice guys, honestly I didn't feel like using Odin XD but I cleared eerything x3 and cleared cache w/ Titanium, and it worked! Then. Flashed a Journaling.zip so I think I'm good now. Thanks! I really didn't wan switch from this rom, it's been working really well for me.
Edit: Wait spoke to soon I'm getting acore FC'S Again -.-
Flashed caches in recovery and it stopped so far.

i have this problem too, just started happening after switching launchers on E17. I ditched TW to use ADW and Gapps started force closing. I tried to clear data for gapps but the option is greyed out in the Manage Apps menu.
Oddly enough, i'm not in the mood for a reflash either.

One fix for the GAPPs FC on Epic.
I recently fixed a problem like this that had me pulling out my hair. I Odin'ed a new modem, reflashed SRF. I finally resorted to a stock ROM and still no joy. Phone would ring and not answer, calls had no volume, Google framework crashed repeatedly.
For some reason, I plugged in a set of earbuds and suddenly the sound worked and it quit crashing. Everything back to normal.
Why? I think there was grit and moisture stuck in the earphone jack. Plugging in the earphones dislodged it. Strange but true.
If you just clear data on google framework with titanium backup you should resolve the problem.

It happens if you pull battery while phone is on or when phone battery dies while phone performing some task.
1 Turn off the phone before battery dies
2 Dont pull battery while phone is on,unless theres no other choice
3 Have journaling on
If you follow these rules you will almost never get these fc's.

Didn't work for me. Neither did 3x cache wipe and dalvik wipe.
I also have a podcast I downloaded randomly play. Weird thing is, I DL'd it months ago and deleted it! It's weird.

---------- Post added at 09:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 PM ----------
I found a post on google.com's support. I believe I have the problem narrowed down to syncing Gmail contacts and syncing Facebook. I can't remove my Gmail account unless I wipe the phone and I don't want to have to do that.
I cleared FB data and re-synced and it gives a FC and then a sync error.
I should be okay with both of these items not syncing contacts, as I really only add contacts to my phone anyways. Here is the text from the post I found:
user dchoule01 from this link http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=23c329285968cd2e&hl=en
"Lowly and chrs are closest to understanding the problem. From everything I've seen this can happen on pretty much any model of phone, any carrier, and because of email, contacts, calendar. If you google this gapps force close you'll find every combination, but there's always one thing in common... a phone tries to sync some tidbit (an email, event, contact) and fails with this error. Everyone suggests backing up and deleting and restoring and copying and yada yada yada. Other solutions work for one person but not another because for me it was a bad calendar event and for you it was a bad contact. For me I'm syncing two external calendars to my phone and you're syncing three. For me I'm syncing X days of calendar and you're syncing Y Days. I deleted records server side and you did it on the phone. I cleared data and you didn't. It's endless. All these variables cause tons of confusion.
Bottom line is this...
Turn the sync off for all accounts on your phone (gmail account, facebook account, exchange account, whatever accounts you have.) Under each account there are individual services, like the gmail account syncs contacts, calendar, email, and picassa, while my exchange account syncs a second email and calendar. Turn off (uncheck) sync for each individual service.
Feel free to backup data from those apps if you want, can't hurt, but resyncing later should put it all back... unless you've created something solely on your phone like local calendar events or local contacts. When I create calendar events and contacts on my phone I always attach them to my server side gmail account so they're available both on the phone and on the internet (when adding a new contact on the phone I choose "save to google" and for calendar it's the calendar you choose - "my calendar" is the local one and your google email is the server side calendar.) If you have purely local stuff then you'll want to back that up because it'll be lost, it's not synced to anything server side.
Go into apps - manage - each app (gmail, calendar storage, etc) and clear data & cache. Depending on the app you may have to put account info back in later, like if you clear data in email you'll have to log back in the next time you open the app. Same with facebook. If you clear data for something like an exchange account you'll have to re-enter the account info because that's stored in the app's data storage along with cached emails. Just be ready after clearing data & cache that you may need to re-enter login info for that specific thing.
Now go back to accounts, pick one, drill down into its services, and turn on each service one by one by checking the green checkmark to turn sync back on. Let the wheel spin until it's done. Sometimes helps to be connected to wifi prior so syncs happen faster. As you turn on each sync and let it *completely* finish you will eventually run across one of them that causes the 1-3 buzz and gapps force close. For me it's always been calendar but other people have seen emails and contacts cause this. Another thread here ended with google support saying they had corrected the problem in gmail for people running 2.1 but I haven't seen them address 2.2 or calendar / contacts.
Okay, so all you've really done now is narrow down the problem to the offending app, and it could be one of several possibles, so I won't detail each individual fix for each app, but basically what you now do is compare records on you're phone to records on the server side. Maybe you do that by syncing contacts and see where it chokes, maybe you visually compare calendar events on the phone to the ones in google calendar. However you do it, you'll eventually find a record that's in one place and not the other, or it's in both places but some attribute doesn't match. You've found your perpetrator. That's the record that gapps is choking on. There may be more than one record choking, but I've only ever seen it happen to one at a time.
For that one app, once again, turn off sync, clear data & cache, and then before turning sync back on, delete that one record from the server side (it's already gone from the phone when you cleared data.)
When you turn sync back on it should re-sync all the happy records and that bad record will be gone, it's not server side and it's not on the phone, so it shouldn't choke on it anymore. You can then recreate that one record bad on the server side and it should push down to the phone just fine.
In a nutshell it appears that there is some problem with google's sync that creates a bad record, or a bad pointer to a record, and the phone can't sync to that one record, so it chokes each time it tries. Sometimes the bad record is on the phone and it can't push up, sometimes it's on the server and it can't pull down. To make things more confusing the sync function sleeps for a while after force closing, so it can appear to be fixed. And if you have juicedefender or something that kills data connection when the screen is off you might think you've fixed the problem, only to see it come back later when you're using your phone on some unrelated screen and sync wakes up in the background and retries that bad record. It makes it look like Memo or Browser is causing the gapps force close but that's only because you're viewing that app when sync wakes up in the background.
I've found this problem occurs most when I add, edit, or delete events, contacts, email from the phone. Creating records on the internet in google normally works fine. But in every case the fix always seems to be the same thing... isolate the offending app, normally calendar, gmail, or contacts, then isolate the offending record within that app, shut off syncing for that service, clear data on the phone, delete the record on the server, turn sync back on, everything is fine, re-create the bad record. I've had to do this three times now since Froyo was released on the Epic and the problem has been corrected with this method each time, at least until I get calendar happy and edit too many events on the phone at once instead of using google on the internet, then the problem comes back. But now that I realize what this is, I've figured out that if I see this problem come back I can just go delete the last few records (normally a cal event) that I've added / edited in the last day or so, clear data from the phone, and re-sync. That fix consistently works for me."
I don't wanna quote an delete that stuff XD. But I've read a lot that it can be due to syncing errors as well, but that wasn't the fix for me. =/ it may work for you though. When I say flash 'journaling on' I mean that there's a zip file called "journalingon.zip" floating around and flashing it often fixes these errors. =P also try fixing permissions in recovery (CWM). Surely one of these plus the instructions you've posted will fix the error.
I would upload the journalingon.zip for you to download.. but I dunno how! XD

Do you have the ICS Google+ leaked app installed? If so, that is the culprit. Happened to me. Try removing it.

No google + here.
I can't use GPS on Google Maps. When I click on the gps lock on button, it says "Please enable Google apps location access" even though I turned on location services and checked both the check boxes. Anyone have a fix to it?

Reload the rom? Does the GPS work in other apps like Waze?
This happened to me with my Nexus 7 - Google Maps would only work with a data connection (WiFi) available. I tried everything - clearing data & cache, uninstaling and reinstalling updates, all to no effect. All other GPS-related apps worked fine. I ended up doing a factory reset and that fixed it.
FIXED
Fixed by turning on location services by going into Google Now settings and enabling location services...
So I'm having this issue that just started today. The dice app I use is not picking the location I selected on the map, no matter what it always selects the entire us map. And with the ziprecruiter app, it will not stay logged in. Even after I login, it will log right back out. I haven't reinstalled the apps but I'm just wondering if anyone had this issue and how they fixed it short of restoring the phone

Did you try clearing the apps data and resetting the permissions? Also, try clearing google play services and the google apps data as well. they are responsible for location.
