So I made a playlist and then the artist had one of their cds taken off spotify... so I bought the CD and the local files were added to spotify and then I was able to listen to the songs on my playlist using my computer... however, these songs aren't showing up on my Iphone's spotify and I even synced it to my itunes and made sure the songs from the CD are on the iphone.. what should I do?
Hi. Could you follow the instructions in this FAQ to synch those tracks (local files) to your iphone. Shout if you need any help.
Ah, this makes sense. I don't currently have access to wifi so maybe that's why my files haven't synced to spotify. I'll make sure to try this though soon. Thanks!
How many songs do you see? I see 29 tracks on my computer and only 17 on my Iphone.
I can't get Alex Winston - King Con on my Iphone...even though I bought the CD and have it on local files on my computer.
If you go to Alex Winston it doesn't show King Con in her Discography, but in her profile there is King Con as one of her playlists and if I add those songs to my playlist it still doesn't show up... so confusing.
How are you for free storage space on the iphone? Any less than 1GB and it may stop synching music.
3GB free... When I add any other random song to this playlist it will immediately show up on my computer and iphone... But, this King Con
will not sync onto my iphone no matter what..
This other spotify uri is Alex Winston – King Con, and those wont work either
If I delete the 12 songs from my local files the songs grey out(instead of normal white font) and upon clicking on the songs I get a message that says "track is not available...", but I still feel if I can import the songs from a CD into local files and the songs show up and are available to play on my computer's spotify then I should also be able to have these songs on my Iphone, however they do not sync.
Well thanks for the help... after perusing many other spotify forums concerning this topic I found that local files are tricky to sync and you have to be connected to wifi. So I may be able to get this to work at some point in time, but without wifi I won't be able to sync any local files to this playlist 😞
Aaaah.............that's point 2 of that FAQ on synching local files. If you have wifi on your PC but just no wifi router, you can create an ad-hoc wireless network (search google), connect your mobile to that and then synch local files.
