Nokia 5800 music adding problems

Hello Nokia

I just got a Nokia 5800 for Christmas but I have some problems with it when I send music to it, I can not see the music in music player, but only in the file manager.
Hope you can help me and excuse my bad English.
Sincerely, a hopeful boy.

Re: Nokia 5800 music adding problems

Backup the contents of your memory card and format it from the phone. Then, copy your content back to the memory card, and refresh the music library. This could help

Here u go guys ..

 

Music Library Refresh Problem

The Music Library just doesnt refresh. The Songs are visible and play individually in the Filemanager but do not get added in the Music Library. When i select the refresh library option in the Music Player it just shows a processing dialog with message "Refreshing 0 file(s) added", nothing happens no matter how long you wait.

Solution:

- Open Windows Explorer and connect the fone to MASS STORAGE MODE

- Opened E:\Private folder
- Opened 101ffca9 Folder
- Delete the harvesterdb.dat file
- Disconnect phone from PC
- Turn device OFF then ON back again
- Refresh the music library
- Songs were added successfully

Cheers !

Backup means, use an external card reader or connect ure fone under MASS STORAGE MODE then copy out all ure files into a safer place (the nearest is ure computer's hard drive)

 

TQ

Re: Nokia 5800 music adding problems

It's always advisable to connect phone to computer and do a backup with Ovi suite or PC Suite at least once per month.

Re: Nokia 5800 music adding problems

Sadly they've all been deleted. Formatting a memory card means bringing it back to a factory state, force deleting everything in it.
