I didn't want to put this in the New Idea section, as I am not really suggesting a new idea.
I started deleting a lot of the mp3s off of my computer in favor of just listening to the same songs over Spotify. I needed the extra hard drive space because I still have a Windows XP computer.
I have no use for listening to music offline as I only have a desktop computer and can't currently even burn CDs with this lousy PC. I can't afford Spotify Premium anyway and have no devices to listen to it on.
I wanted to know if there was any way to make a backup of the Spotify playlists. I was thinking of a simple playlist file that could be exported to your computer as backup. I have noticed a lot topics on here having to do with playlists accidentally being deleted or disappearing and it has made me nervous. I don't want that to happen to me now that I have begun migrating to Spotify and away from mp3s.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi!
@SpotMyBackup
Thank you very much for your excellent SpotMyBackup. I have one request: Is it possible to export the urls of all my playlists only? Not the urls of the tracks of each playlist! Just the url of each playlist. Can this been done somehow from your application?
Thank you very very much for your answer and help! It works!!!!
I have only one problem: it returns only 20 playlists... I have 88 it total. Do I have to do something more?
And one more thing: It returns address like
https://api.spotify.com/v1/users/(username)/playlists/2QGLqi8xM51javPmyYUROk
Is it possible to return address in a format like
spotify:user:(username):playlist:2QGLqi8xM51javPmyYUROk
Again thank you very much indeed!! You are great!
For the formatting you have to change the "console.log(item.href);" line to console.log("spotify:user:"+userId+":playlist:"+item.id);
In one word:
GREAT!!!!!
Thank you so much "Spotmybackup"!! It worked like a charm!!! Thank you again very much for taking the trouble to answer me!
And you jasanite thank you very much too! The format of the line is now as I want it!
Thank you again for your replay!
Will be too much if I ask for the name of the playlist in front of each line with the playlist url? Something like
(playlist name)-spotify:user:(username):playlist:2Yc019j2WEJvH9fzjyIcRn
Your little application rocks! Thanks.
Is it possible to get all covers as well? So i don't have to get them manually one by one. It would be best if they had the same name as the song.
Thank you very much for the fast reply 🙂
I have another problem though, in about 30 seconds SpotMyBackup finds 27 playlists and 642 tracks on firefox, but afterwards nothing happens, it just says: "
(I have waited about 15 minutes on Firefox).
And what I want are the pictures of the songs not the playlists, is this possible? (I tried spotmybackup on the account of my friend and it worked, mine is still not working...)
I have narrowed it down to an error within an playlist, dont know if there is a character withing there somewhere that cases the script to stop.
Here is the playlist and the error:
https://play.spotify.com/user/spotify_uk_/playlist/6Jx9TYReeElpkvNWg8AzWm
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'id' of null
at Object.<anonymous> ((index):658)

at x (jquery-1.11.2.min.js:4)

Why you need all those permission, lige manage my private playlist?
*not "installed"*
Can you write a code which allows me to download all cover art for each song in a playlist? It would be optimal if the pictures had the songtitle in their name. (Or just a list of links).
