Is it normal that you can't edit columns in the Auto DJ node? Right clicking doesn't show a context menu.

Edit: I was just configuring the device settings for my tablet and I inadvertently broke MusicBee - every time I opened the app I received an error message and couldn't continue. I managed to get it running again by deleting my settings file in AppData. Here is the error:

MusicBee v3.0.5758.39706 (Win6.1), 9 Oct 2015 0:28:

PS: I'm not sure if this is a bug or if I'm doing something wrong - I added fdkaac.exe as an encoder, but I don't see the option to convert to AAC when syncing to my device... the drop down menu lists every format except this one.

Ok, sent. I actually deleted the original file to get it working again, but I somehow managed to re-produce the error.

its when you exit having the device summary panel open. I have fixed it and will make an updated version available later. In the interim, edit the settings file, search for <NavigatorInitialTabs> and remove that block to </NavigatorInitialTabs>

no, hiccups error should be fixed and yours is different. However i cant reproduce. Does it always happen, or if not when it does happen are you able to use other right click commands such as Edit

Not a serious bug in any sense, but on my system, when I drag the corner of the compact player to enlarge it, I get lots of 'funny looking' borders and resize arrows. But they also disappear as soon as I release the mouse button.
use Print Screen rather than Alt Print Screen
However, for the compact player or the Now Playing panel, MB doesnt attempt to resize the panels until the mouse button is released. You should only see an empty frame border during the resize operation

Yes, Send To File Rescan always results in an error.  Checking other options on the right-click menu, all seem to work with the exception of those under Send To.  These Sent Tos result in an error:
- Auto DJ
- Audiobooks
- Inbox
- Folder Move
- Folder Copy
- Folder Replace
- Clipboard
- External App
- Format Converter
- File Rescan
- Volume Analysis
- Playlist > External Playlists (If I send to a playlist that's already listed in the window, it works without error.)
In other words, -all- of the options under Send To result in an error.

For me 'file rescan' does work, but 'send to folder' doesn't, I get this error when I try to do that;

By the way, I was just looking over some playlists and the view mode was stuck in track details, I couldn't change it. Anyone else?

this has fixes for most of the issues reported, apart from the remaining skin issues

It's working fine for me.  I can go back and forth between Album and Track Details

I'm happy to report that all of the Send To options available via right-clicking, including File Rescan are working correctly.  With the one (very) minor issue on File Rescan.  When performed in Artwork View, the album art disappears briefly at the completion of the scan.  This does not happen with 2.5.  But I can live with it.

Also no problems on my current PC, my other PC is the one having this issue.
When I click on 'album covers' or 'album and tracks' it ignores my input.

could you give some more info or post a screenshot as i have no problems using set displayed fields in the playing tracks panel

This might help - I noticed that when I select 'set displayed fields' the entire MusicBee window loses focus.
Even though the floating window doesn't pop up, I have to double click something to get my input back.
