Local files to Iphone error

Isasam — Thu, 15 Mar 2018 16:27:02 GMT

I tried to synchronise a locale file playlist from my PC with my phone so that I can listen to them while on the road but all it does is only synchronise one title. Only the first one out of the playlist. This is really annoying and I could not find any solutions. Just want to listen to my audiobooks 😞

Hello, Help arrive!
If you are experiencing:
A. Grey title in Playlist
B. Cannot play mp3/m4a on iPhone

Please make sure the songs import into Spotify:
a. Not protected by DRM
b.In supported format (https://support.spotify.com/us/using_spotify/features/listen-to-local-files/)

Steps:
1.Make sure your computer and mobile devices (iPhone) in the same WiFi network.
2.Remove the playlist which you find the problem
3.Remove and re-add the "Local Sources" - Make sure all songs synced.
3.1 Reopen Spotify app (MAC) [in case if you added too many songs] [Recommend to do]
4.Make sure all the songs which added can be played in Spotify (Mac)
5.Make whole new playlists (Recommend using different name from preventing sync error)
6.On Mac, check all the songs in playlist whether they can be played or not.
7.Download playlist on your devices(iPhone)

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hey I have questions.

I am able to play mp3 formats and do not have a grey playlist. My problem
is, that after downloading the files as a playlist on my device there are
(e.g.) 100 titles but they are all the same, but on my computer from where I
made the playlist in first place, there are 100 different titles.
