IPhone :: Playing Only Downloaded Songs On 4 Without Streaming?
Mar 16, 2012
I am using iTunes Match on my iPhone, which is great, however I sometimes would like to play only the songs I already have downloaded on my iPhone instead of streaming them. Is there a way to play just whatever is on your iPhone
I just recently found problems with downloads certain songs. Specifically the artists Chromium, Deas Vail, Celldweller and Hawthorne Heights. What happens is I download them as usual the whole file downloads with no errors BUT the songs are firstly filed incorrectly on the P.C (not in folders of artist and album). Secondly they don't have any metadata/ info embedded in the file (artist album publisher etc) and Finally but most importantly they don't play, not on my winamp or nokia media player. If I use nokia media player an exclamation mark in a yellow triangle appears next to the Song. This has only happened with those artists so far. I'm using a Nokia N8 unlimited Music subscription.
I have no problems with the other 500 songs just these two. They are on the list of songs, but they don't play. When I sync I get a warning that my music will be removed from my iPhone but no songs ever get removed.I'm not sure what to do about this.
When I play one of my playlists on Itunes from my laptop the end of one song blends perfectly with the beginning of the next (I set the crossfade up). The same playlist played on the Iphone doesn't reflect the same blend.
I downloaded several songs last week on my iPhone. Before I could sync to my computer, I had to do a full restore on my phone and now the downloaded songs are missing. Is there a way to retrieve them?
Not all but few songs from an album I purchased on my iphone are no longer availble. They are grey. I synced my phone with mac and the songs don't play on the mac either through my itunes. I simply hit sync. Is there an option I can choose so that the music I purchased will play?
Phone gets really warm sometimes? Sometimes when playing games (dinosaur games to be precise, I just watched Jurassic Park 3D) it gets warm, same when streaming Pandora.
The album for the band U2 spontaneously appeared on my iphone. I don't have them in my itunes and have never downloaded their album. When I try to delete it on my phone it doesn't allow me, and its not in my itunes. The album appears when I connect my phone to my PC. I want these songs deleted but I dont know how? I've tried taking all my songs off my phone, everything is removed but this U2 album remains?
I bought two whole albums off of iTunes the other day from my Mac. They downloaded, and synced to my iPhone. These albums can play on my iPhone normally but there are also duplicates with the symbol as described above, except with no art work and they will not play.I am a user of iCloud, but not iTunes Match. All the songs are properly downloaded on my Mac, and there are no available downloads. I've tried hard reset as well and powercycling my phone. I've closed down the music and tried restarting. Everything is all up to date, and I've tried taking these two albums off then back on my iPhone, but that didn't do anything. These songs are already downloaded and I just checked for downloads and there's nothing to be downloaded
Recently my iphone 4s will not shuffle songs. I go to songs and then click shuffle and it randomly picks a song, but instead of shuffling to another random song when it is done it repeats the song over and over. What do I do to fix this?
When my turbo is paired to a device and either streaming or just playing music or video it becomes extremely laggy. To the point where it freezes and will not work. Often times this happens while simultaneously charging the phone but its not exclusive to that criteria. It's done it while off charger as well. Is this a heat issue? Too many things going on at once?
the songs I recently bought on itunes I somehow can't play on my phone's iPod.When I click for a certain song to play, it would just automatically switch to another random song.This happens with the songs I recently bought. They're not explicit songs or anything, I have no parental blocks on my music or anything. It just altogether skips those songs when I click on them.And I bought them legally! So I don't know what's happening, I'm just not able to play my music?
I have a 3GS using OS 5.1. I have several Broadway albums I listen to. Is there a way I can set one album to play the songs in order rather than shuffle?
Info: iPhone 3GS, iOS 5, Main syncing computer is MacBook
i have an xperia x8 and have recently updated to the 2.1. I cannot access ANY donwnloaded songs I had before the update. I had used the old 'back up and restore' feature, but came across the 'updated' version before going to 2.1 The message says, 'song_title.dcf File cannot be unlocked'.
Everytime I set the sound I want as my text message notification sound and I go to the following screen it's set it automatically to "default (dahlia)". It won't play the song even though when I try to change it again it's still selected on the list. I checked my file manager and the songs I want are in the notifications folder.
i have a problem with the music player in my xperia x10 miniall my music are mp3 format but it wont play of it.for example..1 album would work fine but the other would just loop the same 3 seconds of the song for 4 mins.... i dont know what the problem is... they're all mp3 format
I downloaded all my music from my computer through MotoCast. All the songs show on my Razr when I go into my music library. When I am connected to my home WiFi I can play all the songs. However, when I'm on 3G (no 4G in my area) only some of the songs will play. I tried to play an album in the car today and noticed that some songs were in bold while the rest were not. The songs in bold played in order, but it skipped all sorts of songs in between. I'm really at a loss as to what is going on.
I hvae purchsed a new model blackberry curve recently,Now i am facing a problem of MP3,my download successfull but an error message display when play the song
I have a couple of problems with My Music. When connecting to my computer (iMac) over wi-fi or 3g I can access the files and stream without a problem but recently I decided to download an album to my phone and although it showed all 10 songs downloaded in the notifications bar, only 2 songs appeared in the app. I tried repeating the process, again it was downloading for a while and showed all as done, but nothing new appeared in the album. I checked the location of the files and they're there - really no idea what the problem could be. I rebooted the phone - nothing.
I noticed that some of the files are mp3 and some m4a but in both types there's more than 2 files so compatibility rather unlikely. The music app is incredibly slow, even when playing files from the phone, not over the internet. I posted a separate discussion on the phone being really slow in comparison with iOS5, but I notice it especially with My Music. Does anyone else have the same problem and is there a solution? Something in settings maybe? I'm new to Android so it's likely no answer will be to basic.
The problem is with bb curbe 8530, when i play songs the media player stops after playing single song. i have to click next to play another one every time. there is a sign of repeat and may be shuffle but unclickable.
very annoyingly Tidal on the LG G3 seems to intermittently but consistently play small "audio pops" during songs, this is the same irrespective of earphones used etc.
Is there a way to play more than one song? It always stops after the song and pressing the double arrow simply exits instead of advancing to the next title
When I download game's for nokia x3 from ovi store or from any other site. I am not able to get sound and music while I'm playing. Its very irritating to play a game without sound.
Just got the X6 on Virgin Mobile, previously having owned the 5530.Has anyone else had a problem with the Playlist DJ appication, or is it just me? Namely, the songs stop playing after a number of tracks of the 25 it would normally play. Sometimes after 2nd track, 8th track etc - random it seems.I use this extensively as my main music player and had no problems with the 5530. The tracks stop randomly, when they get to the end of the current song - never in the middle of a song. Means I'm having to take the phone out of my pocket to restart it. I've even deleted the application and re-downloaded it from the Ovi store. But normal albums play in sequence without a problem.As I'm in the 28 day cooling off period (never been on a contract before), am I allowed to return the phone for another handset, if this is a software bug?
