Can't sync local files to iPhone

Can't sync local files to iPhone

Hello

 

I have problems syncing my local files to my iPhone. All the other playlists works just fine but I am stuck at the local files, it just says "Pending" and nothing happens.

 

Things I have done trying to solve it;

Clean Spotify PC install

Clean Spotify iPhone Install

Reset the PC

Reset the iPhone

Turned off the AntiVirus program

Turned off the WiFi

 

Anything else that might work? Its a bit frustrating now...

Is your phone showing under Devices on the left hand side of the client?

I have had this problem too, since I upgraded to IOS-7/5S. Just now trying to figure it out. This is the 3rd post I have seen where other people (besides me) are having very similar problems.

 

The phone does indeed show up in the spotify device list.

I got my local mp3 files working again, although I probably did more than what was actually required to fix it, here is what I did.

 

1) Deleted spotify from my iphone

2) Updated spotify to the latest version on my Mac

3) Rebooted my Mac

4) Marked all my local playlists as offline

5) Loaded spotify on my iphone again

6) Started spotify on my iphone and logged in

7) Mark my playlists as available offline

 

Add my mp3 songs just started downloading - which they would not do before.
