You need to upload your music to Google's music service for all your music to be displayed. It works with offline music as well, but with a Revue, storing music may not be the best use of space. On a desktop, upload your music using Google's Music Manager.

I made the mistake off using the offline option, couldn't figure for the life of me why i had no memory, the message would pop-up every 5 minutes, i couldn't install anything.

So try and avoid the offline option........ :o

but the app is telling me to upload/sync my music, when i already have over 2,000 songs that play fine from my phone google music app and my desktop google music

When i got the update, the first two things i had to do was..

1) Check off unknown sources in the Applications settings
2) Reset the device.

Once i did those two things, i was able to get the Google Music to work....

no it equals a reboot. the reset in the settings or holding the pair button on the back of the revue for about ten seconds

so i guess this mean all my settings/apps n stuff will be wiped?
