iPhone 5 not showing in devices/ in windows 8

[kerani]

For some reason my iPhone 5 wont show in devices.

Well, it show for a second and then it disappears again, and I can´t sync my playlists.

I have tried all the solutions, a have been able to find on this site: 

Turned off my firewall = didn´t solve anything

Tinkered with my router = didn´t solve anything

Run as adminnistrator = didn´t solve anything

Logged out/in of the app = didn´t solve anything

Re-installed the app = didn´t solve anything

Both my pc and iPhone is on the same wifi and logged in with the same account.

And here comes the "funny" part, I also have a iPad2 running Spotify and it shows up in devices as soon as I log on??

What the hell is wrong?? 🙂

Can you see all of your playlists etc on your iPhone?

[kerani]

Yes all is there. 🙂

Can you try toggling offline mode on and off again from the iPhone Spotify app > Settings?

[kerani]

Yes, tried that as well.

It shows for a second and then disappears again.

After having reset all settings and that didn't help, I tried some random things.

And when I turned the VPN off, it immediately started to sync.

So i suspect that was the problem all along.
