unavailble songs on a device solution?

So here is my question. I have some songs on my pc that are not available in the spotify library, as the artists are not listed and so on. I have added them to a playlist but want to download them to the device. I have a Premium account and have just made the playlist avaible for offline listening, but the songs that are not in the spotify library i cannot listen to them nor download them? Is there a way to fix this?

Please read the support topic here for assistance setting up local file sync: Listen to local files

Make sure that you are on the same WiFi network and Windows & third party firewalls are configured to allow the Spotify connection through.

Another point to note is that sometimes if a track is stored locally & is also available to stream then when you sync to your device it will automatically use the Spotify streaming version but the data from your playlist. If for some reason the metadata such as track length differs this can cause conflict and break the track. In this instance you are best off removing the local file from your playlist on the desktop and adding the track from the Spotify server then re-sync. This should fix this issue.
