Android: Can't add music to an existing playlist

PP1
Local Performer

I've have a few playlists made for years but I recently noticed that I can't add new music. When I select add to playlist the following screen only has an option for make a new playlist. As seen from a previous troubleshooting post, I tried adding a new playlist and deleting it but it hasn't changed.

@PP1 It may help to run through our suggested troubleshooting steps if you are unable to add new music to your existing playlists: Troubleshooting for Android Devices

If this does not help, please do me a favor and provide me with the following:

  • a screenshot of what you see when you attempt to add songs to existing playlists
  • Model of your phone:

  • Build number (Settings > About Phone):
  • Android Security Patch Level, if noted on your device (Settings > About Phone):
  • Pandora version:
    • If you can open Pandora, go to Profile, then select Settings. Scroll to the bottom of the screen for the version number.
    • If you can't open Pandora: from Android Home screen > Android Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Find Pandora

I've created playlist AND added them to my collection they say its added but they don't show up in the collections, so it won't let me add any songs to my current playlist. 

Ive uninstalled the apps thrice now and nothing it was working the second time and my playlist all showed up but when I opened it again they were all gone 😒 I do have premium so I don't know what the issue is. 

I've been dealing with this for a week now.. its getting a bit frustrating now. 

Please help I want to listen to my playlists 🙏

@Triceritop Could you tell me a bit more about what is happening?

  1. Is there an error message when you attempt to add new tracks to your existing playlists? If so, what does it say?
  2. Can you provide me with a screenshot of what you're seeing?

The more details you're able to provide, the better equipped I'll be to help.

I look forward to hearing back.
