• Windows 8 music app has empty library

  My music is stored on my hard drive for storage in the computer (D:\Media\Music). Windows 8 Pro is installed until my SSD (c).

  The view of the office, I went to the library 'Music', the button clicked on «Manage Library» I removed the two default folders and added my D:\Media\Music folder.
  Given that my music collection is a mixture of files MP3, Ogg and FLAC I installed WMP Tag Plus.
  Windows Media Player for the opening of the office shows that my entire library, as well as the Ogg files and Flac are properly listed and playing very well.
  If I go to the music app Windows 8 (metro app, which is the new name?), he said: "it's lonely here ' to the 'my music' section and the library is empty."
  I could wait for the marks of a closed environment it is impossible to play Ogg and Flac files, but also ordinary MP3 files (and even some WMA files) are not at all, while Windows Media Player from the desktop them clearly lists in the music library.
  So, how can I get my library is displayed in the metro music app? As I said, I added my folder (LOCAL!) in the music library of the desktop mode.
  Secondary question: is it possible (and Yes, how) to play Ogg files and FLAC for the metro app?

  I understand that this is an old question, but I hope that my solution helps someone.

  As the user who posted the question, I have my music collection stored on another partition of a hard disk. It's convenient, because I do not lose my files when I reformat/reinstall operating system.

  So, I did the following and the music app as magically began to recognize my music.

  Right click on D:\Music (in my case), went to properties.
  On the first tab, I clicked on the button Advanced attributes. On the pop-up dialog box, I checked
  "Allow files in this folder to have content in addition to the properties indexed".

  That's all.

• Windows 8: music App

  I've recently updated my Windows 7 to Windows 8 Pro. I use Dell Inspiron.

  I have the following problems.

  1. the pockets in my Mp3 music files are not visible while playing in music from Windows. I do not see the album art in Windows Explorer

  and also all using Media player. I turned on the 'Media Info' ' settings-> preferences. Still do not work.

  2. while I play all songs from the Windows Explorer or thru' Browse Windows music, the song "2nd" gets skipped and do not play.

  3. is at - it an option to a graphic equalizer in Windows music?

  Thank you.

  After MUCH experimentation, here's what worked for me.

  Do not use the MP3 files, because they are all or nothing. Most of the work, about 10%, and I have given up trying to understand why. M4A doesn't work either, nor WAV.

  Option 1:

  (1) use only the WMA files, with any art custom 200 x 200 covers stuck in WMP.

  (2) remove all tracks from the album in Windows Media Player (from the library, NOT from your hard drive)

  (3) move them to another directory

  (4) delete them XBOX music

  (5) then move them back to their original directory

  (6) add the tracks in WMP

  (7) watch them appear in XBOX music with their correct album art.

  Option #2

  If you have a LOT of track missing illustrations, this option can save you time.

  1.) use only WMA files with any art custom 200 x 200 covers stuck in WMP. (Transcode the files if you need to, stripping on all work superfluous or larger than 200 x 200.

  XBOX UNISTALL MUSIC 2)

  3.) go in the App Store - drag from the bottom of the screeen (or right click at the bottom of the screen) and select "applications."

  4.) REINSTALL XBOX MUSIC

  5.) go back to the START screen. Attention when XBOX Music goes from 'pending' to 'Installation' and then ends.

  6.) as soon as it is complete, open XBOX Music, then open the charms bar, select Preferences and disable automatically "recover covers album Updata and metadata."

  Combining above steps seems to work very well, and I now have album art custom in the music of the XBOX.

• Share network locations do not appear in the music app

  Current workflow:

  In Zune, added \\share\mymusic to identify places in the music, all music albums folder and metadata and display perfectly.

  Now, in WIndows 8 music app it will display ALL my music after you follow the instructions to make a symbolic link, so I could cheat this stupid WIndows library function to add the folder without complain about indexing.

  I tried the same thing for pictures with no result.

  Does anyone answer and tell me to copy my 30 GB + music on the local disk.  It's ridiculous and you know it.

  If the music app is fundamentally flawed in this way just say so we can start logging bugs and feature requests.

  Otherwise, anyone who has this simple workflow in Windows 8 music app please tell me how you got to work.  I want all the music of \\share\mymusic is not displayed correctly as it does currently in Zune.

  This seems to be a limitation in versions shipping Win8 apps, music, Photos, etc. - are not unable to network shares using (raw, non - WHS) that are added to libraries. That said, apparently Microsoft is working on the update of these applications to include this feature.

  They did not understand as part of the release is a mystery.

  That their tech support doesn't, it's frustrating and disappointing.

  So, in short - we have to be patient for a fix...

• Music app on Windows 8 Pro crashing when trying to listen to the music of Xbox

  I do not have a passage of music Xbox but the music in Windows 8 Pro app seems to provide free streaming without a pass. I mean, because I don't have the option to preview the songs online, I can't play these, full versions. But when I try to play songs or albums, the application crashes without error indicated.

  UPDATE: uninstall and reinstall the app music fixed that! at least for now. Will have to see if it can withstand a restart.

  Here is my experience with this problem:

  I was unable to broadcast from these Windows 8 apps: XBOX, Netflix, Hulu and XBOX Music video.

  I don't think it was the video drivers because it was also ruin the music app , but it was the video drivers. I laughed heartily after I fixed the first problem when I broadcast a song and a great video ad full screen has started playing. That's why I think that Moshen Kamalzadeh became only the accident sometimes, because the announcement does not play every time.

  I've BEEN using:

  AMD Catalyst 12.6 Legacy Driver for Windows 8

  I solved this problem (and probably caused more problems I'll know later) by uninstalling these drivers and will allllllllll the way back to 11.10

• Windows 8 Xbox and Windows Media Player music app

  I think it happened when I upgraded to Windows 7 to 8.  Some of my old purchased music appears in the music app Xbox but can only be streamed. How can I get that back in Windows Media Player if I can do things with him (i.e. sync on my phone)?

  Hello

  To regain the rights to the files, contact the provider of the files. Some online stores offer this and likely to call it activation of the computer, computer authorization, library restoration, synchronization license or something similar.

  How to restore your digital rights varies from one store to the other. A store might limit the number of times that you can restore your rights, or it can limit the number of computers on which you can use the songs or videos that you got on their part. Some stores allow to restore the rights on all protected files.

  For more information on the store's policies, refer to support customer or the info on the help of your store. If you got your music or videos in a store that is no longer in business, you will not be able to restore your rights in this content.

  It will be useful.

It has every song and the artist in it, search works perfectly, but when I try to play music, it gives the following message is displayed:

  Even though I'm pretty sure that the problem is not bound by the drivers, because I have the latest drivers Conexant and graphics.

• Windows 8 will not play WMA or mpeg-4 with the music app

  How can I play the WMA music with the music app. They always play with zune and windows media player. What I have to install additional codex? A better question would be - how could save you Windows 8 without the ability to play WINDOWS Media Audio?

  After installing the update media library WMA files have now been added to my library in the app Metro music.

  Crazy that this standard format of MS is not part of the default system.

• That is apple music app install content and why it won't recognize my Apple ID and password?

  That is Apple music app install content and why it won't recognize my Apple Id and password? It aims to prevent the battery I recorded on my iPhone being recognized on GarageBand on my Mac.

  My guess is that you see an authentication dialog window requesting Admin username and password on your computer, because he wants to install files on your system (such as GarageBand/logic sounds) directory. This has nothing to do with your Apple ID that allows you to buy apps from the App Store.

  Looking for something like this window?

  

  Hope that helps

• Pavilion 15: HP plugged music app no longer works

  Hello

  My HP plugged music app no longer works on my Pavilion 15.  Whenever I open it, it loads then immediately minimizes itself.  When I maximize, it seems to load a few seconds then is reduced again.  I haven't downloaded anything or modified system settings before this problem, so I don't know why it does.

  I did a system restore, made no difference.  I was about to uninstall and then reinstall the app, but I can't seem to find in the Windows store (didn't when I typed "HP plugged music").

  I noticed that all my other applications are still working fine.  I also noticed that on the HP website, he states that this product is not available in the United States is that true?  What is the problem?  It came with the laptop when I bought it a few months ago.  Help, please.

  Hey there @KM7 ,

  Looking at it, I found this site.

  Please let me know how it goes.

  Thank you.

• XBox Music app is not read the labels of the song of library on network

  So I have my library of music stored on a file server.  I'm also on a Windows domain.  I added the location of the music to the area of music under library on my PC in Windows 8.  However, when I load the Xbox Music application, all my songs appear as unknown artist / unknown album.  It does not simply read the file tags.

  With a different music, such as Windows Media Player or Zune, these two programs player read the MP3 tags very well.

  I copied an album in the My Music folder on my HDD, and then the Xbox music app seems to recognize the tags very well.  However, I owe much music to record on my local computer.  In addition, I prefer to keep on file for all server copy to a local drive is not an option.

  Thus, music Xbox seems to have a problem with the playback of MP3 tags on a local network or domain.

  Does anyone have a solution to this?  Or is there anyone he works with a similar network set up?  I even disabled the firewall.

  Thanks for the help.

• How to make the Xbox Music app to keep playing when switching away from him?

  OK, it MUST be a setting but I can't. But I open the music application, start to play music, click on the start page to start using Explorer or something and the music stops playing, or going so low you can't hear it (even if the volume is up) and when you switch to the app music stops all together. This is not the expected behavior, playing music background on a pc is pretty much needed!

  Thanks for your suggestions, I like the music app, but I need to be able to 'multitasking' when im listening to music.
  Sean

  I know this is an old thread, but I wanted to answer for those who have the same problem.

  Indeed, this problem is solved by changing a setting.

  1. go on the desktop

  2. open the acoustic Panel

  3. click on your primary input device

  4. in the settings window, go to the Advanced tab

  5. uncheck the 'allow applications to take exclusive control of this device.

  Hope this has helped you and everyone else with the same problem.
