Re: iPhone: "This song is not currently available in your country or region."

Following up here to say that the issue has more or less resolved itself. This is similar to the last iPhone I used with MM (then v4). So, for anyone reading this thread — just keep syncing. It took about 2-3 dozen albums before the iPhone consistently was able to play every song on the album. In th...

Re: iPhone: "This song is not currently available in your country or region."

Most of the solutions have to do with re-syncing to an Apple service (e.g. iCloud) or software (e.g. iTunes). It looks like the only solution is to continue deleting and re-adding. This happened initially with my older phone, but everything copied over without an issue after having the phone for awh...

iPhone: "This song is not currently available in your country or region."

Since there is no MM-side solution to getting MM to recognize music moved to a new iPhone, I decided to delete all the music and rebuild the library by sending the music from MMW5 to my iPhone. I put a few dozen albums on the phone for a trip, and as I'm playing through the music, I get the message:...

Re: Selecting files doesn't respect Shift + Ctrl and often prevents selection in general.

It occurs in List view, which is really the only view I use.

ETA: Selection generally comes back consistently after using the Esc key, but not always. I'm trying different sequences (top to bottom, arrow keys vs. mouse, etc.), but it seems to affect the interface across the board.

Selecting files doesn't respect Shift + Ctrl and often prevents selection in general.

When I select a group of files, I tend to pick one, then Shift + select for the group (like an album). Sometimes using Shift + click-select will work, but sometimes it doesn't. Often, I then won't be able to select more than one track until I click several times — usually right-clicking or hitting E...

Re: MM still running in task manager Windows 11 after closed

This just started happening to me, also. However, I'm on Windows 10 MMW5 build 5.0.3.2627.

Re: [REQ] Replacing a file in the library (transfering metadata from track to track)

Without word from the author on whether he's going to bring ADF&F to MM5, I'm starting work on a "metadata manipulator" addon which brings that capability to the new MediaMonkey, but it's still in its early stages. Yes, please, this! ADFF is a big part of what made MM the right manage...

Re: Turn off auto Album art/lyrics lookup [#19253]

I have all options under "Background metadata lookup" unchecked. Under Auto-tagging > Metadata > Audio, I only have Album Summary as a selected lookup option. Artwork is unchecked. I have the lyrics window displayed above Playing, and MMW5 searches for lyrics on any track that does not yet...

Re: New iPhone won't read library transferred from old iPhone - also scrambles library.

Thanks, Peke. I appreciate your explanation.

It sounds like the short answer is that the only way to sync MM5 and a new iPhone is to delete and re-copy the library.

I wonder if others might find information like this helpful in the documentation for syncing.

Re: New iPhone won't read library transferred from old iPhone - also scrambles library.

Is it still possible to pull the sync log if I have my old phone?

I'm confused as to why MM is unable to read the music on the device, in general.

Re: New iPhone won't read library transferred from old iPhone - also scrambles library.

Thanks, Peke I thought I did that already. How would I delete the current profile to re-sync? Or is there a way to clean sync without deleting the profile? Edit: I deleted the profile and reconnected. When I synced, it still only reads the new albums I've synced since using the new phone — about 7 a...

Re: Turn off lyrics lookup.

BTW. My overall view of MM5 is that it is a great update. It takes some getting used to to, and the migration documentation sux, but I like MM4 a lot better than MM5. There are things about MM5 that work well and are an upgrade. However, the things that don't work well — or don't work at all — make...

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? MMW5 is really scrambling the music already on my phone.

Re: New iPhone won't read library transferred from old iPhone.

I'm also noticing that the icon for the phone under Devices looks like a USB fob — versus a friend's same iPhone model that is listed with an icon that looks like a phone. Could it be that the device is somehow not being recognized as a phone?

New iPhone won't read library transferred from old iPhone - also scrambles library.

I recently upgraded to an iPhone SE from an iPhone 6s. All the music on the 6s was transferred via MMW5. I moved all my data to the new phone;. Now, MMW5 doesn't recognize the music on the phone, but will recognize new music moved to the phone. I'm using MMW 5.03.26.27 with the latest CopyTrans driv...
