export const body_0 = "Attach the profile or playlist link and desktop.log."

Likes, playlists and follows sync with SoundCloud in the background. There is no sync button.

    <Steps>
      <Step title="Wait">
        Usually it takes minutes, up to a day when SoundCloud limits requests. Big libraries arrive in portions. With [STAR](/en/star) your sync on the server goes first.
      </Step>

      <Step title="Update the app">
        [Update the app](/en/install/update)
      </Step>

      <Step title="Sign in again">
        Click **Settings -> Account -> Sign Out**, then **Sign in with SoundCloud** and allow access in the browser. Downloaded tracks and settings stay.
      </Step>

      <Step title="A day passed and nothing arrived">
        Open **Settings -> Network -> Network check -> Check** and follow the advice under the result. [What the result means](/en/fix/network-check)

    <Info>
      Where to look: the chip next to the **Library -> Liked Tracks** title and the row **Settings -> Account -> SoundCloud sync**.
    </Info>

    | Chip | What it means |
    | - | - |
    | **Synced** | Everything is sent |
    | **N syncing** | Being sent |
    | **SoundCloud is limiting · retry in ...** | SoundCloud is not accepting changes right now. They are saved and will go out by themselves |
    | **N not synced** | SoundCloud rejected some changes. The app keeps retrying |

    Don't repeat the likes. If you need it on the site right now, do it there.

    A playlist shows **Not sent to SoundCloud, sign in again**:

    Click **Settings -> Account -> Sign Out**, then **Sign in with SoundCloud** and allow access in the browser. Downloaded tracks and settings stay.
  </Tab>

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="A playlist has fewer tracks than on the site" id="fewer-tracks">
    At the bottom of the playlist it says **N of M tracks are available**. SoundCloud does not give out deleted, hidden, region-locked and private tracks. A difference of a few tracks is normal.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="A track won't add to a playlist">
    | What it says | What to do |
    | - | - |
    | **This playlist is still syncing with SoundCloud, try again in a minute** | Wait and try again |
    | **This track isn't synced yet, try again in a minute** | The same |
    | **The playlist changed elsewhere, reload it and try again** | Open the playlist again |
    | **Couldn't change the playlist** | Try again. Still fails: write to us with the playlist link |

    Only the owner can edit a playlist.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Where to create a new playlist">
    The Library has no such button. On any track click **Add to playlist -> New playlist**.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="I imported from Yandex Music and my likes are empty">
    The import creates private **Yandex Music** playlists, not likes. They are in **Library -> Your Playlists**. [Import from Yandex Music](/en/use/import)
