what rom you running?

I have 2 notes, 1 running Omega, the other running Android Revolution 4.4... Both work fine....
I've also used this setup on the stock roms and rooted stock rom, Germany, UK and Australia. All worked as well..

Any more details, please?
What media player? Can you see the files on the Card? Do the files open using File Explorer? Does the SD card work in you PC? Can you open you media player and then "File", "open" the file?
im using th WMP installed in the phone, all music files can be seen using file explorer, and can be only played one at a time when selicted through file explorer, its when i try to update library that it sees all the files says adding files and then justs stops

NEED HELP!
I have been testing out several JB ROM available out there but I am having the same problem that the phone cannot scan all my media (no pics in gallery other then instant upload, music player got no song). But of coz I can see my files on my comp thru USB. I searched online and ppl suggested to clear cache on media and use rescan media but both not work.
edit: I go back to CM9 (ICS ROM) now and everything works fine...

clear the cache, going into settings/apps/all/gallery then music .../ and clear
then go to your sd card/android/data/ and clear the folders linked to the gallery (3dgallery blablabla) and the music player.
reboot your phone and dont touch for about 3 min to let it scan your sd card
thanks for suggestion but this doesn't help... i clear cache on gallery and music, delete com.android.3dgallery (no music folder in data) and reboot... wait... same thing

if your ROM Manager's version is v5.0.1.3, the issue cause by it. it has a bug that places .nomedia file in the wrong directory if directories are missing.
upgrade ROM Manager
del sdcard's .nomedia file that you don't need (especially root path's one)
reboot and the media service will scan you sdcard
after a few minute, you can see your media files again

Thank you so much. I completely wiped my phone and started from scratch and wasn't able to fix the problem. Now I read this and bingo, that was the problem. If I only I would have waited a day to wipe everything (I didn't back up because I figured that the error would have happened when I restored it too). But anyway thanks again!

Yeah I know that now, I just didn't know soon enough. lol Thanks though
I too have same problem. I updated ROM manager. Also deleted .nomedia file from root and few other directories.
But my music player is still unable to detect audio files. I even formatted sd card.. no luck.
I can only play individual audio files thru file explorer (astro)
Please suggest!
I resolved deleting .nomedia file in android/data folder

Simplest thing, put it in the PC, copy all data and then format the card as FAT
Or then more details

well i used alllll the jell bean roms pretty much. and currently im using paranoid android. and my various music apps like the play music and th cm9/10 music app the gallery. nothing finds my sd card. could it be because its called sdcard1 and sd card1?? instead on internal or external.(the names when i use astro)
Connect the phone to your computer, make sure you have show hidden files, go to the folders with your stuff and delete .nomedia files.
so i did that and then i went into my gallerey and the two photos that were showing up is now gone
Now restart your device

All those ROM u are using the sd card is no in emmc folder, you have to go out of there to / (nothing) then you will see sdcard folder.
Try to update the pass in your programs that you need to use.

So correct me if Im wrong you go to your music app and you dont see your tracks?
What music player do you use? I use playerpro myself and it is pretty leet. There are options to re scan for media (for adding stuff MTP) and manual scans for media. What media players do this to you? Also, if I am correct you are the one that has SD card issues with some JB roms right? What file system are you using for the SD card? Are you using MTP or Mass storage mode for USB transfers? Have you tried a new SD card? What is your main file format not showing up on your playlist, mp3 or m4b/a, etc. Is there a specific reason you need to do the sd swap like a game or certain app?
I know its a lot of questions but I'm trying to narrow it down a bit. I think it might be your SD card. Can you grab an old one somewhere, reformat it inside android, then do the SD swap and see if your music works then? Might be best to do a clean flash while you are at it. You could also try and download playerpro or the vlc beta and see if it sees it. I personally don't even install the stock music player anymore.
If you need to fix permissions you can do it under CWM/advanced. Let me know how it works out for you, I know how it feels to have that one little itch keeping you from enjoying the hell outta this phone.

well to answer your questions as they were asked 1 Apollo / 2 Paranoid Android ( newest version ) EXT4 / /3 Both ( MTP and MASS ) / 4 this SD card is practically brand new ive reformatted it one time under the windows reformat back into EXT4 with DEFAULT settings and allocation / 5 MP3 and M4A not showing for codec's of music / 6 games and apps and music i love this phone gonna prolly pick up a galaxy S2 / S3 ( the S3 has quad core S4 chip i believe so much much faster ) ive fixed permissions ive re installed busybox to 1.20.2 have done clean flash and re install have downloaded playerpro ( the 4.1.2 had worked flawlessly on the way down to CA from KS on the greyhound so it was working great then and now it's not wanting to c anything for music specifically ) ( i had reformatted and installed 4.1.2 PA about 2 days ago and before the swap it had seen my EXTERNAL MICRO SDHC as EXTERNAL ( NO SWAPPING at the point of reinstall ) but i had swapped it and then nothing so that's were im stuck
I hate Apollo personally. I listen to a lot of audio books and its hard to find a player that never forgets where you pause. It doesnt sound like its your player though... I think it might be your sdcard. I know it works on other roms, but can you try your old card or a different one? Mine cut out like that a few times before I lost everything but only a few times. Also, try to go to CM file explorer and open a folder while the music player is open to see if that jump starts it.
I wasn't aware there was a PA 4.2.1
None the less, put your sdcard in your computer and copy everything off of it
Put sdcard back in phone and got to settings/storage/erase sdcard
reboot phone
plug phone into computer and mount usb storage
copy all your stuff back to the sdcard
reboot to recovery
delete cache and dalvik
fix perms
reboot
open apollo
enjoy your tunes
I get a fc sometimes when switching tracks. I quit using Apollo and use googles app.when in the app you should see your music. As thomas is telling you, I would try what he said, because I've always been able to see my music.

Just format "Fat" not 16 or 32 or NTFS or [email protected] or 4 (format it with windows
You know I have to ask... what format is your music? I remember that you couldn't see your music on 4.1.2 but could on stock and tweaked. Is it because your files are WMA? ...I just came to this realization that not only will JB ROMs not play WMA, they won't even show up in any music player. Just curious.

Go into your App Settings ===> All Apps, select Media Storage and clear the app data.
Reboot and wait half and hour to see if Android re-indexes your storage and adds the photos into your gallery. If it hasn't try downloading a 'Rescan Media' app from Google Play Store to force it to rescan your storage.
If that doesn't work make sure there's no hidden files in your media directories by the name of '.nomedia'
brilliant thanks ill try that now thanks for the quick reply
Naa nothing worked could it be a kernel issue???
Found the problem it was the sd card itself all I did was back up everything off the sd card onto my computer and format the sd card then put everything back on to it and everything shows up how its supposed to YAY! thanks for the help and support
