Whenever I try to download a playlist to my laptop, running windows 7, it just sits forever on "waiting for connection", but it can connect to the internet just fine. Songs stream without any problems, but I want to be able to download for plane rides and other times without internet.
Downloading worked fine when I first got Spotify, but for about the past 3 months it hasn't worked on my PC. My phone can still download songs just fine.
Here are some of the things I've already tried:
Uninstalling/reinstalling Spotify
Logging off and back on
Switching connections between wired and wireless internet
Confirming that I don't have more than 3 devices (currently PC, phone, and audio receiver)
Confirming I don't have more than 3,333 songs d/l'ed (I have about 15K on my hard drive, but they weren't from spotify. The total size of playlists I've asked it to d/l is 641 songs.)
Set up a firewall exemption. Spotify is currently unrestricted.
I can't find any other stuff to try online. There's apparently some reddit wiki that existed once, but the link is currently broken. Any other suggestions?
