Problems with IOS 5 Music App

I am having this problem too. Soundtracks, compilations. When I click on an artist who has one album, plus songs on a compilation, it takes me through to his album. Anyone have any solutions to this?

As ever album artwork is major glitch but am currently re-syncing music wirelessly and my hope is this will be less temperamental...wishful thinking, maybe!

All music on iPhone 3S gone after upgrade to IOS5, but is showing OK in iTunes (iPad2 OK too). Seem to remember that there was something similar under upgrade to IOS4, but have forgotten how to sort it out. Anyone can help?

Installing iOS5 was very difficult and messy but I got there. One problem i'm having with the Music App is that when I go to open my main playlist (containing about 40Gb of music) it takes around 20 seconds to go to the list of songs. Pre-iOS5 it was instamtaneous. With other playlists of maybe 4 Gb it's instantaneous. Even if I open the App with that playlist already open it takes around 20 seconds before it's useable, i.e. it's frozen for around 20 seconds.

Like I say it worked fine before so there is some problem with the new OS.

Similar problem here. I upgraded my iphone 4 to iOS 5 yesterday.

Itunes said that almost all of what used to be free memory was now occupied as "other" but I didn't pay any attention to it.

Today on a flight from Brussels to the US, I found out that half of my music won't play. It simply doesn't start the song or it skips to the next one, There is no difference between downloaded songs and CD's I ripped myself. Since I won't be home for another week I can't try to fix the problem by deleting and reloading all my music onto the iPhone.

This is freaking ridiculous. While googling I found out that the problem with the new music app has been known for months yet Apple didn't solve it in the official iOS 5 release.

Do I need to go back to my old iPod and carry two devices around?

Before I completely swicthed to Apple a few months ago, I thought Apple was so much better than Microsoft. I now know better.

Shame on you Apple !!!! The iPod made you big, now you can't even play music on the iphone 4.

some songs play, some don't.

It seems that MP3 files with variable bitrate (VBR) are the one with problems ...

I'm also experiencing difficulties since I upgraded my iPad 1 to ios5...

Upgrade went "ok"until i found out that most of my music library (iTunes +6300 songs) didn't sync on my iPad...

Some songs have been copied from iTunes to iPad but lots/most are "greyed" out of not even displayed on iPad...

Pathetic...

Similar problems aeound here. The update makes Music app slow down to unbearable, and most times it simply refuses to open my main list. It seems that updating to iOs5 could have been the worst idea I've had in quite a while.

After downloading IOS5 and syncing my phone with Itunes, I am now experiencing problems. The name of the album appearing as the name of the artist on multiple different songs. Is anybody else experiencing this problem?? It is very frustrating when trying to listen to music because I can't use the Artists tab because it lies to me. I have tried deleting the music off my phone and putting it back on and nothing will work. Any other suggestions?

After downloading and installing I05 my Ipod Touch syncs to ITunes on my PC, and shows my entire library in ITunes on my PC - I can even play songs on my Ipod in Itunes on my PC, BUT my on my IPod the Music App and Itunes both have a balnk screen ststing No Music Content - Help! Like everyone else I have tried rebooting, but no luck as yet - any suggestions? Thnaks!

iv had a couple glitches so far ,

1/ lyrics take a bit to load,

and 2/ artist screen is showing bout 1/3 of my 300+ artists, yet searching an artist not shown brings it up under search results in artists, is it just a small glitch with sorting criterea?. not 100% sure about albums tho

I'm having some odd issues as well. My music loads fine and plays fine through the ipod touch speaker. When I plug in headphones though the quality goes to crap and I have no idea why. I've tried reseting, restoring, playing with the volume, switching out headphones and nothing has worked. Does anyone have any idea how to get my music working again?

I've found the origin of my tagging problem. Apparently, in iOS 5, any changes applied to tracks already transferred to iPod Touch or iPad aren't recognised by the Music app, even if they show up normally in iTunes. So I have to apply all the wanted changes before transferring tracks to iPod Touch. This never happened before. Anyone else experiencing this?

Sounds like iOS 5 is a great update for a device that was designed

for music playback!
