Offline Mode - Offline Playlists unavailable or only partially unavailable; under 3,300 limit!

Offline Mode - Offline Playlists unavailable or only partially unavailable; under 3,300 limit!

Hi everyone!

 

I've downloaded three playlists for offline usage.  When I log out, restart my computer, etc, I'll often lose my songs while offline.  This is problematic as I have very little access to internet for the next few weeks.

 

If I find a source of wifi/internet, I'm able to re-populate my playlists with the songs that were missing and then play them again in offline mode.  Is this normal behavior for Spotify?

 

This is on Windows 8.  I am not running Spotify in compatibility mode. 

 

 

Edit:  This may have been unclear.  When I repopulate the playlist(s), it's instant.  As in, it's not downloading the songs again.  They are clearly stored locally, but Spotify has a hard time seeing them while offline.  At least, that's my understanding of the issue.
