My collaborator or recipient can't download a track

Almost always because downloads are switched off for that Playlist.

If someone can play your tracks but can't download them, the Playlist most likely has downloads turned off — that's the default.

Switch downloads on

  1. From the main menu, open Playlists and open the one they're using.
  2. Go to its settings and switch on the download option.
  3. Ask them to refresh the page — a download control will now be available.

Other things to check

  • Make sure they can actually open the Playlist first — if it's restricted, they need to be invited and verified. See My recipient can't open the Playlist.
  • Confirm they're looking at the right Playlist — downloads are set per Playlist, so one may allow them while another doesn't.
