Hi All,
I am a newbie with Android,
So i decided to format the Internal SD, no problem.
After that my Internal SD had no Music(mp3) map..
So where do i have to put the mp3's ?
Thanks
It doesn't matter, that's what the media scanning is for. All your mp3s will show up in your music player.
I did already put the MP3's in the Internal SD map, but it doesnt show up at the phone MP3 player?
Format = Wipe Data .
jje
Can you explain me, what you want to tell me with Wipe data?
You have formatted the internal sd card yes .
if you format then you have wiped the data on that card .
Data from a formatted card may be recoverable using a tool like Recuva dependant upon the type of format .
jje
There is no Recuva for Mac OSx, but is there not another way without using a program?
Your phone is not a mac so i would google for a recovery program that works from a mac or try recovering from a Windows PC .
jje
I was talking about my iMac, there is no Rescuva for Mac OSx..
But i think there is another way without using program, because in the Internal SD there are few maps but not a map(s) for mp3,video..
damn !! you are so confusing lol, if you have formatted your internal sd card, you have wiped everything off it INCLUDING YOUR MUSIC !!!! if you want to try and get it back search google for ' recovery software for MAC'
if that is too much for you to take in and your brain cant handle the immense pressure of googling something, then just download your music again and put it back on the phone.
I am not that stupid mister!, i dont want the music or something else back, there is "no map for music/mp3".
If i put the MP3's in the Internal SD "map" self, they dont show up in the Music Player! so now you understand me?
well finally i understand lol........... BUT !!! whenever i put a song on to the sd card (not in any folder) my music player finds them.. What music player are you using ?? the stock one ??? i use winamp its much better
If i put the MP3's in the Internal SD "map" self, they dont show up in the Music Player! so now you understand me?
Eventually
Do you make a folder in your sd card for music.
Can you see the music in my files .
jje
Buy an external sd card and save yourself the hassel in the future..
Formatted again, and this time did it!
What the hell is a map?

My hero is rooted with th cs buffed rom but forsome reason i dnt have a folder to put the music on my sd care & when i make a folder to put the music in the media player wont read it........im lost & i need my music !
Is the "Music" folder capitalized and in the root of your SD card? I'm not sure if that matters or not but mine was capitalized "Music" by default.
Or you may just need to reformat your SD card. I can't think of why it wouldn't read or play files from a "Music" folder unless it's having trouble reading the SD card somehow. Try reformatting the SD card (after backing up everything on it) and then reload all your files on it and try again.
Ok well i already reformated the sd card & well that didnt work but i just renamed the folder to "Music" im rebooting the phone now as we speak so hopefully it works & it didnt & now im strating to get mad
You may need to reformat the SD card (again), then reflash/reinstall the buufed ROM to your phone again (after a full data wipe). I've read some posts where some people have to reformat their cards after switching between AOSP and Sense ROMs, so it could be that you need to reinstall the ROM after you have freshly formatted the card.
That is probably an annoying fix though to have to wipe and start over, so if I come across anything else that may be better, I'll post back again.

Backup data, reformat card, put music back on. Open up Music player and it should find it (might take awhile depending on how much music you have)
ok suddelny while in usb connection (mass storage) all my music edn up at LOST.DIR but i cant use it . Is there a way to retrieve my music because there where like 800 songs in there and i have no backup on them ..

The LOST.DIR folder can simply be deleted.
It contain orphaned or corrupted files that
are found when the phone does file system
checks on the SD card when you boot up the
phone.
yeah but thats the point i rally need to retrieve that data , Its really important
i have a similar problem - my phone was falling down to earth ....afterwards i got the error message that my micro-sd card is not accessible anymore ....and i just rebooted the phone.
now many of my photos and my complete music went to "Lost.dir" folder....
any way to recover it?!
many thanks!
its hard to restore the data back once it goes to Lost.Dir folder. its corrupted
A lesson to be present about backing up your phone, as with windows, don't backup at your peril! As stated, lost dir id for corrupt files, so you are unlikely to be able to retrieve

Do anybody know why I cant transfer any mp3 to nexus s internal memory? I used Astro file manager , because want use some mp3 like ringtone melody, but my mda doesnt see it when it is saved on sd card. Any help or telephone must be unlocked for thi operation? THX
Pretty sure you need to be unlocked to access outside the sd card. You could try an app like ringdroid to create one of your mp3
Sent from the bowels of hell
does android support that file type natively, if it does on your SD card make folders media/ringtones or media /notifications
thx for help, second answer works
Hey guys. Today i decided to treat my X8 by buying a 8GB class 4 micro sd card to replace the stock 2GB micro sd card...all went well ! Within half an hour i copied & pasted everything out of my old card and into the new. That is until i tried to play some songs when i found that none of my songs appear...AT ALL ! Then i tried going into gallery. Same thing !!! I need help with this cuz i don't want to know that i wasted all that money on something that doesn't work T-T
P.S. : Running GDX V21, Alfs kernel V04. I've tried formatting it and THEN pasting the files from my old card. Still the same
P.S.P.S : By "my" X8, I mean my friends one which, in a few days or weeks will be mine

mayb u got a corrupt sd card?
open file explorer in the phone and look if there is something on the card. if you see all your folders and files, try to reboot your phone or install this from the maket.
if you don't see the files on your sd card, try to format the card from the settings in phone, not with pc
hope this will help you
crap...my sd card was also damaged ..it says sd card is damaged please format it...my heart broke ..4gb worth of pics , songs , videos GONE
there might be 2 solutions that I know:
1) Sdcard or the files may be corrupted. - Try to format the sdcard and put just one picture(a picture that you can view without any problems on pc) and see if you can view it.
2)nomedia - make sure there isn't any ".nomedia" file in the root of sd card or check in the folders where your music is store.
HOPE THAT HELPS

You can try formatting your SD card from your computer, maybe it helps.
Use the pc. There 2 types of format. FAT AND ntfs. Have you tried both? Also try quick and the regular one.

Ok...after ALOT of experimenting i finally pin pointed the prob....i used this app called Rescan Media Root...they say that every boot is slow because yr phone is scanning all the media files (Media Scan)...if you disable it, it'll speed up boot time ! But what happens in my case is it disabled the scanning, forever...so it never bothered to scan the sd card for my media files :S...after i reenabled it, it worked !

So,a problem my friend has on his i9000 antique .
First of all,hello everybody.
So,the thing is : He told me ,that recently he found he has much more internal memory free then on his SD card. So he decided to transfer all of his music to internal memory.
The thing is,not one of the music players recognise songs on his internal memory . He says that only poweramp recognises ,but he doesn't want it . The file explorer sees the files in internal memory thought. Conundrum it is .
Someone know whats the deal ? Thanks in advance guys .:fingers-crossed:

You should creat new folder name Music and move all songs to that folder. It work for me
