[Q] music player does not find new music

I have a completely stock HTC One 801S and I have been trying to copy my music into it. I copied MP3's into the 'Music' folder and it shows when I check with Windows explorer, it also shows up when I use File Manager from the Play Store but the Media player in the phone (the one with the little Headset Icon does not see anything new. The preloaded music shows up and plays but not what I added.
If I use the File Manager from the Play Store and select the music, it plays fine. I also installed Android Music but the same problem, anything I copy into the phone does not show up in any music player in the phone. Restart the phone many times but no luck.
Does anybody have solutions or ideas how to solve this?
Thanks,
JB

Quick update: if I send the files over Bluetooth they show up in the Bluetooth folder in the music player and they play OK in the stock music player. This is a work around because I cannot organize them in folders.
Anybody can help me?
thanks,
JB

[Q] Music player issue

I have a rooted nexus 6 . When i download a song using music download apps from playstore they donot show up in the music player tracklist. I use musiXmatch to play music . When i download a song it gets stored in the music folder in storage. The player reads all the songs that present in the music folder but the one downloaded from the app. The music file i downloaded and the pre existing music files are the same type audio/mpeg.

[Q] Nexus 6 and Google Play Music

Has anyone figured out way to keep purchased songs from google on the device? I have hooked the nexus up to the PC and i cant see my purchased songs, at all. Im using music v5.6.160p.1480807. Has anyone else ran into this issue? I downloaded the music to the phone but i cant move it to my pc.. or other media devices.

Google Play Music stores downloaded music in cache which can't be accessed without root and is pretty well buried. Plus the mp3 files are named with random characters.
You would actually want to download Google Music Manager to your PC - just search for it and Google will give it to you in the first result. It's a PC syncing application that runs in the background to sync your music. Open it by the Windows system try and go to settings, there's an option to download purchased music.
Or you can go to music.google.com and download the songs from there.

Thanks I'll give that a try. This seems a little different from the old method of just DL to the phone and browse to the directory and get the songs out of the cahce to add them to the ext SD card.

Download play music exporter , just google and install the apk. It needs root and you can save cached songs to your phone without need of PC

I will try this as well, the google music manager gave me errors saying that it couldnt connect to google servers... but my internet connection was fine. Apparently, this is an ongoing issue..

M, play music & amazon mp3 BOTH won't download

Both music programs work and play music but I can't get them to download music to my phone. (music I own from the cloud to my phone)
Anyone have experience either way running M?

Syncing music between S6 and Turbo?

I went from my Turbo to an S6 and I'm back on the Turbo now but I have a mix of songs on each. If I wanted to make sure both have all songs available, is there any way to do that? I can't download anything on my computer so that takes out that option
Thanks!

Should be able to thru windows media player? If you're running a windows based OS plug it in and open windows media player. Play around with that

While it would be easier to use the Google Play Music Manager utility, you could manually upload your music to Google Play Music, and then download it from your phones/tablets. Keeping new files synced up with the online library would be a bit of a pain, though.
