Title: unable to find Play Music downloaded music files
Post by: martyh on November 23, 2013, 07:38:09 PM

Hello, All --

Been a while; work has kept me overwhelmed of late....

I have two downloaded tracks from my Google Play Music library on my device. They are pinned, but I've confirmed their existence by playing both tracks with WiFi off.

But, I can't find where on my device the two songs are located, and neither can the GoneMad Music Player App. A scan yields nothing. And I've use ES File Explorer to search every data and cache file on my device. Nada.

Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,
- martyh

DRM, if you got them with play music. They don't want you to be able to share them with others.

Matt's right, music pinned with GPM is hidden. If you want to download them you can but it'll need to be from a PC and the GPM Uploader.

Thanks; guess I'll have to sideload whatever music files I want on my N7....
