    Artist don't show up in the Artist Folder??

    I'm having a problem viewing songs in the regular folder feature. I have the 8gb M6. Currently have about 6+ GB of music on it. Now when I drag and drop songs from a new artist the Meizu M6 will not show these in the typical Music>Artist Folder. However if I go to the Browser section I can find the Artist and the Albums but no songs. Or sometimes there are songs shown in browser not in regular menu? Anyone else having this problem. How do I get all songs loaded to show in the regular menu as well as the browser?
    Thanks for help.

    You need to make sure your ID3 tags are what the music is, or if there is even ID3 tags attached to the songs.

    Browser mode works by reading folder and file names, not ID3 tags. Normal menu mode reads ID3 tags, not folder names (but yes file names).

    Yep, I've already checked ID3 Tags. Everything is in place. Does the softwear get weird when it reaches a certain song limit?

    Hmm... I have seen somewhere in this forum that the menu sortings get weird after a lot of songs... don't know for sure, because I have a 2GB M6. But in theory, if the ID3 tags are the same, then they will be grouped together. I don't see why not. Browser mode is the easiest, as you can just put the music you want into the same folder.

    Try to use Media Player 11 or something to sync the songs to the meizu, it sorts them out in folders and puts on album art.
