<p>thanks for your email.</p>
<p>There should never be a
<code>java.lang.NullPointerException</code> in this context. Can
you please upload your logs? <a href="http://help.beatunes.com/kb/troubleshooting/where-are-the-beatunes-logs">
http://help.beatunes.com/kb/troubleshooting/where-are-the-beatunes-...</a>
explain how. I'd love to see what happened.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Oh, as an aside, you may want to seek lyrics sources other than
albummp3.info. It is reported as a malware source - mdm</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Thanks for the note. beaTunes never launches a lyrics site into
an actual browser. So no code stemming from that site is ever
executed.</p>
<p>Cheers,</p>

<p>Thank you very much for your very speedy response!<br>
I've attached a zip file of the entire beaTunes log directory.</p>
<p>Heh - there's nothing quite like an exception where your first
reaction is,<br>
"How the heck is that happening there?"🤔</p>
<p>Good bug hunting to you. I'd also love to know what the problem
is.</p>
<p>Cheers!</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>

<p>thanks for the logs. I was able to track down the issue and as
it turns out, the <code>NullPointerException</code> happened only
in cases, when beaTunes wasn't able to find the correct lyrics
anyway. So overall no great loss. That aside, it's of course a bug
and it will be fixed in 4.6.4.</p>
<p>If you'd like to have the fix right away, please download and
install the latest dev snapshot from <a href="https://www.beatunes.com/download/beaTunes-4-6-4-SNAPSHOT.dmg">https://www.beatunes.com/download/beaTunes-4-6-4-SNAPSHOT.dmg</a></p>

I am also getting "no lyrics found" over and over again.<br>
I am on the trial version of 5.1.1<br>
I have uploaded my logs as per the above instructions.<br>
Thanks!</p></div>Matttag:help.beatunes.com,2009-07-24:Comment/401969852018-03-12T06:44:35Z2018-03-12T06:44:35ZFailed to Import Lyrics<div><blockquote>

<p>The original poster got a <code>NullPointerException</code>. Do you also get a <code>NullPointerException</code>?</p></div>hendriktag:help.beatunes.com,2009-07-24:Comment/401969852018-03-12T13:19:57Z2018-03-12T13:19:57ZFailed to Import Lyrics<div><p>Hello,</p>
<p>no. I do not see anything about a NullPoint Exception. It just does not seem to find the Songs.</p>
<p>It says, "no Tags found for 'your song here'" and "no lyrics found for 'your song here'" for all of the songs it scans.</p>

<p>beaTunes simply isn't able to find lyrics for the songs in question. That happens, as the lyrics search is basically just a glorified web search. Note that this can be caused by wrong metadata in your songs, i.e. wrong title or artist.</p></div>hendrik
