  1. Windows Media Player songs and playlists gone?


    I added songs from my music folder onto the New Media Player. It worked and I even made playlists. After I was done listening to it I shut it down and left. The next day I open Media Player and everything is gone. There’s nothing in the Music library, my playlists are wiped. Play Queue seems to still have my songs that I last listened to.I click to add “music” and it doesn’t work unless I use the refresh button in the settings. This also restores my playlistsI don’t use a HDD, and use SSD for my computer.

    :)

  2. WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER PLAYLIST SEARCH

    As of now, the option that you wanted for Windows Media Player is currently not available. We suggest that you send us a feedback regarding this concern so we could better improve how Windows Media Player works. To send a feedback, click
    here.

    For now, you may also follow this steps on how to find which Playlist a particular song is placed:

    • Click on one of your Playlists.
    • Go to the Search box, and then type the title of the song.

    If the song is on that particular Playlist, it would show up.

    If the song is not on the Playlist, you would get a message: There are no items matching "Title of the song" in this view.

    Let us know if you have any further questions.

  3. N900's Media Player playlist problems

    a bit of a random question, but with my n97, i can just create playlists on windows media player, and sync the playlist to the device to only copy a playlist of songs, and then that playlist will show up in the playlists in the media player on my n97.



    is it possible to do the same thing with the n900? or do i really have to follow the steps listed previously in this thread?

    Songs and Playlists in Windows Media Player Are Duplicated

    THE SONGS ARE DUPLICATED!!! The playlists are only duplicated when I use the desktop app , not windows media player. I have fixed that problem by re-creating the playlists in windows media player.

    Also I figured out that the songs were duplicated in windows media player because it some how got my duplicated path of songs on my back up drive. I don't even know how that happened. Since then i have removed that duplicate library from it but now I am
    still getting some duplicated songs on my phone and they still show up in Windows media player duplicated.

    The playlists will not transfer over to the phone using the 2nd hand generic Windows Phone Desktop App program.

    You have to use Windows Media player to get the play lists to transfer. Windows Media player is the only way the play lists can be created now. I have done that , it does not solve the problem. For this reason , the windows phone desktop app is COMPLETELY
    USELESS. Do you know someone in the Microsoft design and engineering department????? CAN YOU FREAKING TELL THEM THAT FOR ME AND THE MILLIONS OF USERS WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    YOU CANNOT CREATE PLAYLISTS WITH THE WINDOWS PHONE DESKTOP APP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    For the life of me I cannot understand why Microsoft stock doesn't plummet and go down to zero with products that have degraded due to bad marketing , bad design, and bad management as much as the windows phone has.

    I don't even know why after 2 previous phones I have one. I guarantee there will not be a 4TH!

    Are you listening Microsoft Exec??? I am one of millions who feel this way!!!
