Every time I try using Spotify as a premium member, whenever I try to download my playlists for offline mode, It constantly says waiting for connection... and every solution I tried from earlier isn't working for me including letting it through firewall and other solutions just say to try an older version of Spotify so I was wondering if there was any other way to fix this problem?

( Version 1.0.63.617.g5aca9a2a )
