Myspace Music Problems - Comments Page 2

When I'm on MYSPACE in MSN my song doesn't play. When I'm in internet explorer it does. Suggestions?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Don't use MSN.

I'm trying to embed my MySpace music to my webite using MySpace's player. The source file continues to change so it won't continue to work. I need to figure out hot to locate my http://lads.myspace.com/?????.swf address. Got any ideas?

EDITOR'S NOTE: I don't think Myspace likes people stealing their bandwidth by including links to Myspace songs/players on other sites. That's why they keep changing the URL of the music files.

Player not playing on your computer and you tried all the other fixes. Heres what fixed mine. Delete cookies and clean out your cache in Internet explorer.

I am having a problem with the play counts freezing on my player. They were working fine intially-but now they only change when I update by uploading a new song. After that they will freeze again at the new numbers.

How do you add a song to your profile thats not on the myspace music website?

Just thought I'd put a quick post on here for anyone who has had the same problem as I just did. I was trying to delete a song from my profile & going to the "edit profile--music & video--remove" wasn't working for me. I must've tried about 20 times. Finally I closed my internet browser and restarted it & the song was gone when I went back in.

Hi, I followed the instructions on "how to upload a song onto myspace from the hard drive" and I see the player, but the music doesn't start automatically or when you push the play button. any suggestions?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Maybe you need a Quicktime update. If you send me the Myspace URL, I'll check on the code.

Hi - I have an odd problem... I've selected songs I like to add to my page, they're listed in my profile song section but it doesn't play or appear on my page. Any ideas?

EDITOR'S NOTE: What do you mean when you say they're listed in the profile song section? Do you mean the list of songs you like? If so, that's just a text block... it doesn't make any songs play.

I upgraded to Flash 9, and restarted the computer, and have tried everything else I can of, think for 3 weeks now, but MySpace Music Players show up blank on all MySpace sites on my computer. I can right click "to activate" but nothing happens. What settings do I need to change. It's odd, one day all was ok and then, it wasn't.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Try updating Quicktime?

Well i tried that but it dosnt stay checked once i leave the page... what can i do ?

thnx a lot m8...this realy helpd

I have a myspace music account and when my profile is opened the first song plays automatically from begining to end...BUT how can I get it to play the next songs automatically as well after the previous songs finish. I guess sort of like a continuous play as long as my profile is opened. Please help. Thanks.

when i try to upload a song to my music player. its says "file blocked! copyright asserted". what does this mean?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Maybe it's a copyrighted song? It makes sense for Myspace to disallow that, since they want you to upload ORIGINAL songs.

Im in a band and we have a myspace profile. We uploaded a new song and went to play it. We clicked on the song and it went through the normal stuff but then it said "stream failed" and would not play the song. We hope you can help, and thanks in advance.

EDITOR'S NOTE: This is very common on Myspace. The only thing that helps is waiting, or perhaps uploading again.

Thanks so much for your help Bob! You Rock!

THANKS!!!!!!! XOXO

Hi - I'm having a real problem with my myspace player. I have an ordinary/not band myspace page and the music "bar" has simply disappeared. Everytime I try to add a song - I click add on the myspace music page I'm sourcing it from and then it says it is added to my profile but it has stopped showing up on my profile page and there is no sound either -please help - I love the music feature of myspace and I don't want to not have music on my page. Thanks.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Trying getting the latest versions of Flash and Quicktime. Also test in a different browser, such as Firefox.

OMG ty so much Bob, lol i fell stupid but thanks it worked!

We have so much stuff on the page now that the music stops before people read the whole page.Is it possible to have like a code to loop the music for continuing playing? Thanks

EDITOR'S NOTE: That's what the LOOP="true" parameter is for...

Hi Bob!

My problem is quite similar to a lot of peoples; on my myspace profile where the default music player is, the words "loading song..." are all that show. Then when I go to a band profile, the player reads (under the song title) "error downloading music". This only just started to happen a few days ago. I emailed myspace, but of course, have received no response. I uninstalled Adobe Flash Player 9 just in case this was the problem but it helped nothing so I re-installed it again. I also downloaded the new version of Quicktime, but also with no results. Any ideas??

EDITOR'S NOTE: Lots of things seem to be broken on Myspace right now... If your profile does not work on other computers either, this must be one of them. Hopefully the Myspace programmers will get these annoyances resolved soon.
