Music library folder loses its display column settings

Hello!

It's strange and I thought about my question, in case anyone else has seen this behavior and maybe give me the solution.

Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit SP1.

Windows Explorer.

I opened on the left of the Navigation pane.

I'm going under libraries, where I have my music library and click on it.

On the right, I have configured a Details view, with the columns set to display:

Name, contributing artists, length.

By right-clicking an empty space on the right and choosing Properties-> Customize. I have:

Optimize this folder for:

Music

And also checked the: this model also apply to all subfolders.

Now the problem is the following:

Everything seems useful as I'd like. But then, after a few closed and the openings of Windows Explorer, the columns of this music library folder are lost.

And it shows the value by default, or maybe some old personal settings of these columns:

Name, the artist of the Album.

Thus, artists to contribute and the length are gone.

Do you know what is causing this weird behavior? I want to maintain my initial columns:

Name, contributing artists, length.

Or, for that matter, whatever the columns, I chose.

SEE YOU SOON!

See if resetting the default folders,

    If you have, or have had iTunes, that is the problem. It contains the album art. I uninstalled iTunes and then ran ccleaner, ccleaner.com to remove iTunes registers connections at work. As soon as I cleaned the registry the album covers are returned.

    OK, nevermind.

    I found the answer thanks to Ronnie Vernon...
    If anyone wants to know how to solve this problem, read what he wrote:

    Libraries should show only the files that are contained in the files that you add to this library.

    Example:

    In Windows Explorer, select the Document library.

    In the window display on the right, click the link x sites in the top/left of the window.

    This will open a dialog box displays all the folders that have been added to this library.

    By default, the Library of Documents should show the folders My Documents and public records .

    If there is other records showing that you don't want in this library, Select the folder and click on the Remove button.

    You can also right click the documentslibrary, in the Part of Navigation and select Properties. At the bottom of the Properties dialog box, click on the button by default is restore to remove all additional files have been added.

    THANKS RONNIE!

  • Music player "there nothing in your music library" but the folder is located in the library

    I was listening to music in media player 12, when I decided that I wanted to look for visualizations. The music was still playing and suddenly I get the message "there are no items in your music library. Click on organize... "When I click on organize, and then click on manage libraries, music, nothing changes.

    When I check the music library, the right folder is already listed. I tried to remove the Media Player folder, I tried to delete the file in the music library, no change. I don't know what else to try.

    I have also tried to build the library in Media Center with the same results, "there nothing in your music library.

    The library is already there, I guess that WMP is not 'see '?

    I am running Windows 7 64 professional and Media Player 12.

    Found the answer to my problem.

    Somehow, the regedit pointed to the server instead of my local folder, urghh! Do not know how, or when, but reset settings fixed regedit.

  • If I had to restore my music library after a computer failure, if I sync my iPod I lose the music?

    I had to restore my music library after a computer failure, but not all of my library was reatored. If I sync my iPod what do I lose music? I heard that

    You can not sync music between the two if the iPod has iTunes has no music. I don't want to lose my entire library which is at this point on the iPod.

    If you "restore" your iTunes library by adding your songs (and other content) to a new iTunes library (instead of restore full of backup iTunes library), your current iTunes library is treated as a different iPod iTunes library.  iPods can use Auto-Sync with one iTunes library at a time.  If you have set up the synchronization with your current iTunes library, the existing content of the iPod (from the old iTunes library) is deleted and replaced with the contents of your current iTunes library.  All the songs from the iPod that are not on your iTunes current library will be lost.

    By design, iTunes sync is generally in one direction, from iTunes to iPod library.  You cannot use iTunes to transfer files of song from iPod to computer (with the exception of songs purchased from the iTunes Store).  However, there are methods and third party utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like 'ipod music transfer', you should get a few links (including a CNET article on the subject).

    Once the song on your disk files, add them to your current iTunes library.  After the confirmation of your iTunes library has all of your songs, you can configure synchronization with the iPod.

    If I download a new version of itunes, I lose my music library?

    Debby,

    I answered this question on your other post, but if you want the answer here, no you won't. You need to stay connected and all your songs will be there, unless something goes wrong, which is rare. If that were to happen, you can always get it back by signing into iTunes and then going to section purchased from the iTunes store and re - download everything.

    If you want to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7, you won't lose iTunes music library. However, there is a chance of losing the music of iTunes library if you choose custom installation.

    You can see the Microsoft article for more information on the upgrade:

  • Documents library folder display Incorrect order - cannot change

    In the document library folder, I have three files

    My Documents

  • WMP 12 - music library on Windows Media Player questions

    I see that many of them in the forum:

    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/Windows_7-pictures/how-do-i-stop-WMP-from-destroying-my-music-library/d4767d6b-BCFA-4AD0-b1ae-fe76a683cb4b

    What is a good alternative to WMP for storage (cutting) and burning music (I like .wav or without loss, so what I have is as close as possible to what digital original CD quality). I use my PC as a failsafe to lose to say a fire all my CD do flow, but sometimes like to burn a CD for my taste with what's on WMP. And as for copy and paste my own choice of album art for a single copy of a song, or choose a different piece of album art for a CD, e.g. WMP also uses a generic image of "Blind Faith" from the album; I googled for the image of the 'Blind Faith' CD image gold OLA.

    Bottom line is WMP either wants to stick his choice on what I choose, or finally the library seems to get corrupted. If I disable (uncheck) organize > Options > Library tab option: "Retrieve additional information for the Internet", WMP "sulking" and told me when I want to copy a CD again in the library (these are my own words, since I don't have a picture of the exact wording): «Can not help you get info for this rip of the CD to the library...» » !

    It's as if WMP is said ' use what I want to see you, or your on your own boyfriend! "and then still too wants to write what he thinks I need. And the pop-up to the right click of "Find album Info" is about as useful for nothing - it's exactly, but cumbersome to change each song with info from the CD booklet.

    You think after 20 years, there would be a way to do what the user wants to see, and then WMP could fill in the missing data.

    Is there a free music, or even better cost store and burn the software product, which can take what I already have in my system Windows 7 WMP music folder, convert it with my album art to its library and give me more flexibility to store my music with the songs and album art I want, as well as all formats of music on there (or most popular as at least .wav .flac etc..)? At about 140 GB of music without loss on a disk as backup.

    I'm old school and do not listen to music. I want my CD, with all the booklet (metadata not online) to manually but in a player, or make a CD to play with songs from my choice - what we used to call personal compilations on cassettes, cale-TI-in-your-hand - I heard laughter :) But there came a time records were all we had - and still my choice to use a physical product - not the cloud.

    Thank you, Grandpa

    Hi Jim...

    I've read other reports here on the library constantly updated and also implement several entries, despite all the settings it seems to be correct. A poster has found that his update has disappeared when he took the photo library of wmp... I suspect that many library corruptions occur because not many people use wmp directly to view or manage their photos, so that the stuff gets moved around or changed in the library of the Explorer resulting in links to library wmp being broken.

    Any questions on another multimedia player - another poster has been gratifying, and you seem to be happy about how to navigate between the rocks of the tp software so it might be worth - various links here...

    http://getmusicbee.com/help.html

    Depending on how you have the music, another look review creates a new user account for your high quality music files. That's what I did. I keep all my music on an external hard drive hq to avoid cluttering up my internal HD..., and the music library links directly to that - not videos - no pictures other than a folder for album art. With wav files, we're pretty much stuck with the work that goes in when a cd is ripped, so I prefer to use wma lossless (my ageing ears cannot spot the difference!) allows me to control the metadata.

    If I think of anything else I've seen on this topic, I'll post an update... A soon R.

  • WMP 12 is unable to locate the music library

    I have recently reinstalled windows 7 64 bit and now windows media player can't seem to load my music library.  Before you reinstall, I had no problem with wmp 12.

    I have the correct folder selected for the library, but when I say update the files he never finds files.  I'll have to use a spider player for music and there is nothing wrong with creating a library from the SAME folder. (spider has been installed after that WMP didn't work).

    WMP won't recognize music from the library, after that he was snatched from a CD. The music of the IP is stored in the same folder in the same format as the rest of the collection, but he does not take into account all the music that I na not tear.

    I reinstalled WMP and have deleted the WMP (%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player) database, but none of those who have helped.  I also have the same problem with Microsoft zune, is having exactly the same problem.  If someone has an idea that might work I would be very happy.  Thank you.

    In WMP, click organize , and then select manage libraries - music . Add the folder there, which helps?

    If this isn't the case, you try to reset the media library. Note firstly reset the library will make you lose all play counts and ratings too. Then, follow these steps:

    -Restart the PC.
    -Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service . If its status is started , double-click the service, and then click stop .
    -Click Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the search field and press ENTER. This folder opens in Windows Explorer.
    -In this folder, rename the folder Media Player as Old Media Player . If you do not see the folder, then it is probably hidden. Set Explorer to view the hidden files and folders and show protected system files.
    -Launch WMP, your library will have been reset and will be rebuilt. Check if the problem persists. Tim Baets

  • Kind of music library

    I just installed iOS10 and cannot sort my music/library by the song title. It displays only the titles of the songs in groups sorted by artist. This is consistent with both iPhone6 & iPad. Y at - it a setting or option that I'm missing?

    Go to the application settings on your iPhone and choose music; under 'Library', there is an option for "type songs & Albums. You can choose 'by artist' or ' title' - the latter should work for you.

  • transfer the music library (not bought) one Apple ID to another

    DH has used my iTunes/AppleID account download her CD to the Mac, and then on his iPod.  He recently got an iPhone with its own AppleID.

    We would like to have the iPod and put all his music not purchased on his new iPhone with its new AppleID.  How can I transfer his playlist of music not bought at its new Apple ID?

    Whenever I have to 'create' a new iTunes Library, even when I'm out of iTunes, it automatically opens with all my music and my iPhone connects via WiFi.

    DH has used my iTunes/AppleID account to download her CD on Mac

    In fact, he was using your iTunes library, not your iTunes account or Apple ID.  When you import the songs from the music CD, your Apple ID is not involved.

    Is "DH", the initials of the other user?  If DH does not have its own computer, create a new user account on shared Mac.  You can do this in the Preferences system users & groups window.  If you are the primary user, you can make DH user Standard (not administrator) account.  In this way, the Admin authorization ("your authorization") is necessary to make changes to the system for the Mac.  Log out of your user account and have DH, sign in to his new account user and things together upwards to use his Apple ID.  When it runs iTunes in this new user account, it's HIS iTunes library, not your library.

    Return to your user account, scrunch a new folder (on the desktop) and name it something like the Songs of DH (or whatever you want).  In the window iTunes (with your normal iTunes library), use some view is more convenient to show your library iTunes music.  Dragged the songs of DH of the iTunes window to this new folder on the desktop.  For example, if these songs from music CD, using the view Albums can be more convenient, because you can drag entire albums in the folder.  iTunes copy the song files in the folder of Songs DH .

    Once the file has all his songs, copy it to a shared location.  You can use the folder users / shared , which is accessible from two user accounts.  Have DH to connect to his user account.

    NOTE: You can enable the fast user switch to keep the two users connected at the same time, to save time when switching.  Password is still required to switch between user accounts, but you can ignore the disconnection and crosses the login screen.

    Drag the DH songs folder from the shared location and drop onto the iTunes window, to add songs from the iTunes library.  OR, in the iTunes menu bar, use the command file-> add to library , and select the folder of Songs of DH .  Once the songs in its iTunes library, connect the iPhone and set up the synchronization as you wish.

  • Sync iPod very old classic in my musical library of MacBook Pro

    My husband has an old, classic iPod (remember the year), and I would add my iTunes library (songs) for what is already on the iPod.   When I connected the iPod to my 2011 MacBook Pro, set iTunes to update iPod to the latest version of the software, but then do not synchronize.  When I plug my iPod to more recent (2011) model, it automatically up-to-date with my iTunes library.  Why don't the old iPod to date as well?

    Thank you

    Katrina

    If the iPod is currently to synchronize with your husband iTunes library, it doesn't syncs automatically with your (different) iTunes library, unless you change the association so that it syncs with your iTunes library.  The iPod can only using automatic synchronization ( synchronization music setting) with one iTunes library at a time.  If you change the binding so that the iPod will sync with your iTunes library, content current iPod is deleted and replaced with the content in your iTunes library.

    To do this, select the iPod in iTunes (click on its button on the device on the horizontal bar) to show the settings screen in the iTunes window.  The side left (in the sidebar), under settings, click music.  Right, parameters of music on the iPod screen.

    NOTE: All of the songs from the iPod that are not in your iTunes library will be lost.  If there is a problem, thanks for posting

    Check the box to Sync music.  This enables automatic sync and combines the iPod to your iTunes library.  If your library iTunes music can fit on the iPod, you can choose the option synchronize entire music library.  Then click apply.  iTunes syncs your music to the iPod, by replacing its existing content.  Further, iTunes automatically keeps your iPod 'in phase' with your iTunes music library when you connect (or click sync , if already connected).
