Recover deleted playlist

Know this is a long shot but.... I've accidentally deleted a playlist I've spent weeks working on. Is there any way of getting it back?

It's called 'Boat party' and there was about 100 songs on it. Thanks.

Thanks but I tried logging out of and back into my account and it didn't work.  I'm specifically interested in getting back the playlists called "XXXY" and "sing into my mouth".  It would be great to have the rest back as well.

whiteyonthemoon - I couldn't seem to find those playlists at all. Strange. Could you have possibly been logging into another account at all?

No, I was the first person I know to have spotify, so it's not like someone else logged on using my computer and I made playlists on their account.  All of my old playlists got deleted when I got a Macbook, maybe I opened itunes and there was a synching issue?  

Could you pop in an email about this? We may need to do a little more extensive hunting for these playlists, if we can find them.

Moderators,

 

I accidentally deleted my playlist "West Coast" 5 minutes ago, any chance that you can recover it for me?

 

my username should be novatheboss@gmail.com (account created via facebook)

 

thanks in advance,

 

Stefano

Thanks David, I put in for additional help, and there are some other details in the request that might be helpful.

The help request has reference number 544844. 

I just installed Spotify and when opening it, the tab to the left showing the playlists had one that said "Loading.." and was empty. It stayed like this for quite a while so I rightclicked and unsubscribed it. Then out of the blue another playlist showed the same "Loading..". So I restarted the client, which now showed my main playlist was deleted.

 

The playlist name was "this is it" and got deleted only minutes prior to this message. Any help recovering it would be very much appreciated!

stefano1980 & Nicco82 - Not a problem, those playlists have been returned for both of you. Sign in/ sign out of the app and they will reappear in the left-hand side. 

I've just lost a playlist called hunnykins (very embarrassing but was set up by an ex) would be so grateful if you could get it back for me as I have been adding to it for two years now and is my favourite 😞  Thanks!....I promise to change the name if you do haha!

Hi Meredith!

 

I lost all my playlists when i reinstalled the Spotify app on my Mac. Any chance you could restore them for me? 

username: ivers1

 

Thanks heaps.

Ivers1 - I've added a few recently deleted playlists back to your account, but the rest don't appear to have disappeared. They should be there. Are you logging in with the username 'ivers1'?

yes, i am on the ivers1 account. but i still do not see any of my playlist on the left menu. I tried to log out and in but still not there. any chance you could post me a link if you still can see them?

It may be a little server issue going on at the minute. Can you try logging out and in again, they might have reappeared.

hm, still not there.

but i did a complete uninstall of the app, deleting all user files when i reinstalled spotify. (i did this because spotify kept freezing all the time..) and that's when all my playlists disappeared, i just figured all my playlists would follow my account and not my local files.

now I get a popup saying "Playlist error."
