Sorry for the trouble!

 

Right now there is a bug in the iPhone app that causes some local files with special characters in the title (parenthesis, commas, dashes, etc.) to not work when you try to play them.

 

This bug might be what is causing you to have problems.

 

The developers are looking into this and hopefully it will be fixed soon in an update. If it's not fixed in the next update, then hopefully it will be fixed in one shortly after that.

I know that bug, but all that tracks who don't work cause of parenthesis, commas, dashes..  was in a grey color , like no sync tracks , so i just rename on my pc this type of tracks on re uploaded it in my playlist , now they work, but still some tracks who don't work, they don't have any parentheses commas dashes or other , only letters , they are sync ( or they seems to be )  , but still can't read them, did you know if your next update will fix that bug or not ?

It could be that the problem you are having is related to the bug.

 

I don't have any more information on when this might be fixed, but as soon as I know more, I'll post back here and let you know.
