Or a few songs they used to listen to disappear. Many Spotify users sometimes feel like their playlists are somehow shrinking. How to Access Unavailable Songs on Spotify Whether your greyed songs are local files, downloaded songs, online music or others, you can find a solution. We will also show you 9 solutions to help you fix Spotify songs greyed out and listen to them again. But we've rounded up some possible reasons. Actually, Spotify has never officially explained why songs are greyed out. I know this sounds like a silly, bs way if having to do this, but what else was I gonna do? Maybe someday Spotify will clear up this issue, but until then at least I have a workaround.Why are songs greyed out on Spotify? You may find that some songs on Spotify are greyed out and unplayable. Spotify the synced up all the music files with the titles in the playlists. Lastly, I turned off the Mac and went to Spotify on the Vaio laptop where the actual music files are stored. So there they are, all of my current iTunes playlists in Spotify. So I get into the Mac and try the import option in Spotify, import>iTunes, and it works. I did not have to copy any music files over, ONLY the two library files. I then copied the iTunes music library.xml file and the iTunes l file from the vaio to the iTunes folder on the Mac. Luckily, I was able to install Spotify on my sons laptop. So Spotify's ultimate solution was to use the soundiiz method which as I explained was virtually useless. When I clicked on import>iTunes, nothing happened. My initial problem stemmed from the fact that the import feature in Spotify was not working for me on my Vaio laptop. If you have a lot of songs that you store locally which are not in Spotify's catalogue then the soundiiz method for importing is virtually useless, as it does not import the titles that it can't find in spotify's catalogue, and For those of us who have thousands of these such titles, what are we going to do, add them manually? NOT.

So I was left basically on my own to figure this out. I'm not why they can't get things right by now. Well, let me start by saying none of spotify's 'solutions' were completely successful.
