How do I clear my music player?

Geezle

Hopefully this one should be pretty straightforward.

I had a bunch of music on my microSD card, however said card shat the bed. That's not the end of the world, but my music player still shows all the music that isn't there anymore, and it's becoming quite frustrating.

In the player I can manually delete individual songs, but is there any way I can just flush the works out and start fresh? :confused:

You could connect your phone to your computer as mass storage, and search through on computer and ctrl+click and do it that way. or delete music folder

Music folder is entirely gone and a new microSD card is in there, but the music player is still showing all the old songs/folders that were on the old card. :o

No dice on the clear data...the button is greyed out.


Oh, and I forgot to mention, this is on a Samsung Galaxy SII X running ICS. :)

Okay, after letting the phone sit for a few minutes while it calculated the data, the button eventually un-greyed. I hit it and cleared the data, but all the old songs/albums are still showing up, even though they're no longer there.

Also, I noticed that the albums are still showing up in my Gallery as well, even though the albums and covers are gone.

This is starting to make me crazy! :mad:
 
Moved. Hope it works out for you. My experience is that the BEST source of information is always from other users of your specific device.
