Spotify not reading my songs

Spotify not reading my songs

I have songs that i bought on itunes and put on my computer and I have them in my local files area but some of the songs sink with the artist and some don't like i can click on the artist name and it will bring me to the artist spotify page and the album but only on some of the songs how do I make it read that all of the songs are the same as they are on spotify and link me to the arist/album and stuff like that

Hey @fatpenguin1, welcome to the community!

 

When you add your local files to Spotify, the app will link the songs to the artist profiles if the metadata on them matches the Spotify library.

 

The local files that don't have the correct metadata, will have trouble linking to the artist profiles.

 

All the best.

So I have songs that I bought on Itunes and I have them on spotify but they wont link to the artist is there a way I can make that happen like some of my other songs will?

Sorry for the delay, @fatpenguin1.

 

Right now it's not possible to manually link Local Files to other songs in Spotify. If you like, you can show support for the idea by adding your vote here

 

Hope this helps!
