Solved!

I add a song to my Playlist but it does not show up in it , when i add it again it says already in

 

Plan

Free

India 

 

Device

MacBook Air 2017

Operating System

MacOS Mojave 10.14.2

I have been trying to add songs to my Playlist, I've set show Unavailable songs to turned On, But still, I can't see certain songs being added. Also if I try to play those songs they are just blank and they never play. Also, pictures like Playlist art and stuff don't load up. I can't even find music in some Artists like Bruno Mars or Coldplay.

Adding pictures

Hey there @Nishant26 !

 

Can you try a clean reinstall and then try the following steps:

 

  1. Open Notepad as an administrator (right-click - Open as Administrator)
  2. go to File - Open and navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
  3. Choose "All Files" instead of "Text Documents" next to the File Name box. You'll see a handful of files. Pick hosts and click on Open
  4. When the file is open, you will see a block of text with # in front of each line and might see entries like 0.0.0.0 website.com127.0.0.1 website2.com
  5. Check for any entries with Spotify in the address. Examples may look like: 0.0.0.0 weblb-wg.gslb.spotify.com0.0.0.0
  6. If you do find any lines with Spotify, please remove them.
  7. Save your changes and restart Spotify.

Let me know how it goes 🙂

I am sorry, that's my bad. Then can you try :

  1. Open Finder and, in Finder’s menu bar, select Go > Go to Folder. In the box, type the following location: /private/etc/hosts and press return.
  2. A new Finder window will open and your Mac’s hosts file will be selected. Click and drag it out of the Finder window and drop it on your desktop. 
  3. To open it, simply double-click and it will display the file’s contents in TextEdit.
  4. Check for any entries with Spotify in the address.
  5. If you do find any lines with Spotify, remove them.
  6. Save your changes and restart Spotify.
