But as was sort of pointed out here, if you make an entire Playlist available for offline use, then while you do get a small "ipod" icon in the top right corner of the "cover" icon for the playlist, you do NOT get that indicator foe each individual song, and if you press the 3 buttons next to each song "Make Available Offline" shows up as one of the options...even though the song, as part of the playlist has already been downloaded onto your device and is already available for offline use.

Let's just assume that's a minor glitch Apple forgot to work out. I hope it changes real soon.

Is anyone else getting the "unable to download" message while trying to download a playlist for offline listening? I'm getting that error literally hundreds of times while trying to download a large playlist. Starting to get very frustrated by it.....

Nope, I haven't had that.

But my problem is as following: when I have a song in my library which isn't available in the Dutch store, I get an error and it doesn't upload the song.

I guess since a few days Apple doesn't allow people to upload songs that aren't available in that country's iTunes store.
