I synced my android tablet, but my songs still won't play in regular or offline mode

[grrrfrustrated]

im a subscriber, and i synced my andoid tablet to my spotify account on my laptop.

on my tablet, they are shown as "downloaded" already, but when i click on a song, it says "the track is not available."

under my devices tab, my starred playlist has an orange minus sign over it saying "only local files synced" 

what does all this mean???? and why wont my music, that is visible, play?????

Do you have a premium subscription or unlimited? Premium is required for mobile use (as in mobile OS irrespective of whether you use the tablet as a mobile device)

No, sorry, like I say, Premium is required to use Spotify on a mobile - i.e. a mobile OS like Android or iOS, irrespective of whether you use your device in a mobile capacity
