music player problem

1 replies · 2,391 views · Started 30 June 2008

Just got a n95 8gb. I added about 1gb of music to the mass memory stick. I try opening the music player and it just says opening. I leave it for about 5 minutes as i think it would take a while 2 load 1gb worth of songs but then it just keeps saying opening. The only way 2 view my songs is to press the multimedia button wen it says opening and then click music and it still says opening so i press the multimedia button again and choose music option and then it doesnt say opening anymore but show two folders. They both dont have names but the first folder is music and the second is podcast. So does anyone know why it keeps saying opening when i open the music player or know how to fix it? Thanks in advance

The internal flash RAM (or whatever it is), seems to be *very* slow. After adding a couple of hundred megabytes of music/podcasts my phone can stay stuck on "Opening" for 10 mins. I would suggest either leaving on overnight or delete some stuff and add it back a bit at a time.

Once it has done updating it's index, or whatever it is doing, opening Music is quite fast.
