Yesterday I received the kitkat update. I installed it with no problems. The problem I have now is the Play Music app. Songs that used to play no longer play, I get Music playback error, Couldn't play the track you requested. This is happening to alot of my songs. If I go to the file manager, music file and select the song to play and choose Google Play Music, the song will play. But wont play on my playlist or if I try to play from within the app? Any ideas????
I've got the same problem. "Music Playback error" from Google Music app, and "Error playing the track" using MixZing Music Player.
Looks like an OS problem, not a problem with the player.
Solution 1. Go to settings > apps > Google Play Music > Clear cache and data.
Solution 2. Uninstall the Music app. If you cant; use es explorer and delete it from the system folder (root permission is required) make sure you are rooted.. Reboot your device and reinstall from the Playstore.
Solution 3. Try deleting all the songs and re-copy them.

so as the title says.. I have songs on internal sd card. when i start Play Music app and try to play on of my songs that are on internal memory, player says: Couldn't play the track you requested. BUT app Music plays those songs. also when i browse to the music with file explorer and open it with Play Music, player plays it. any suggestions? restart didn't help
or you can change a music app and try to play musics.
I never used the native player.So I was not exactly clear
I recently upgraded to the newest version of Google Play Music for the All Access feature, but I've found that the app is having trouble playing music that I have on my phone, whether it is cached from the app or added manually.
The first song of an album or playlist will play, but the app displays a "Music playback error : Couldn't play the track you requested" whenever the app tries to move to the next track. This doesn't happen to streaming music strangely, only music I've cached or loaded from my computer.
Is anyone else having this issue? Let me know if you're able to reproduce this or not. I've tried re-installing the app, clearing the cached music and data, all to no avail.
I really want to love this app with its new layout, but not being able to properly play back local music is a huge issue.
BTW my phone is rooted, not sure if that's going to be an issue or not.
Hi,
Anyone able to play media files from explorer with the pop up player ?
I found that my phone not able to play any mp3 with Es File Explorer popup player and/or Google Music Player popup player opened with Es File Explorer (They popup, i can seek forward and back, can pause and play, but no progress when i press play its just stuck there). If opened using apollo and/or mx player, it's open the full player and the mp3 play just fine. And Google play music play all my mp3 just fine.
And also the alarm clock cannot play any custom mp3, when the alarm triggers its doesn't play the mp3. I thinks its the same problem with above.
Thanks for your helps
After the lollipop upgrade I'm unable to play mp3s other players except LG Music. Nextmusic crashes and Google Play Music gives me this error "Music Playback error: Couldn't play the track you requested".
Oh, and if play them through ES File manager to PlayMusic it works.
I tried to clear cache of interested applications and cleared the cache via recovery but nothing
Resolved, it was Vipers fault. Uninstalled the driver and now it works
Is there anyway to stop this from happening? Unless you pin music, eventually old music gets deleted even when there's ton of space on the phone.
If you have the actual files just download them to your phone and they will always be there.
Otherwise:
1. There is an option if you go into google play music settings to auto-download music
2. If you go into the music library, click on a playlist and you'll see a download icon in between the album covers and the actual song list
