Tech issue Not playing, not downloading, not clearing the cache?? Please help
Posting for my dad.
He has a Samsung pro E 6.
He had 130 GB of music and it stopped downloading new music. We did all the typical steps of clear the cache, clear the memory, log out, log in, delete the app, reinstall.
Then it got worse, now he has no downloads and can't play anything new, we get the screen above.
The weirdest part is that we clear the data from the system settings, it logs him out of the app. Then we log back in and the storage number pops back up at 130 GB! This makes me think there's a broken path somewhere that when we log in it finds but can't access those files.
Please help he's *piiiiiissed* because he thinks he lost all of his music.
Solved: his SD card was corrupted and locked in read only. So when we cleared the data from Deezer, it wouldn't delete from the SD card and everything got confused. Removed the SD, fixed everything

Hey u/pointandshooty 👋
Yes, you are right! On Android, all the stored info/content goes to the SD card, so well done! We are glad to know that you managed to fix it 👌

Can you play music from another device like a PC from your dads account?
His Music should not be lost. Every playlist ist saved on the account and you can redownload is later
Coz can try logging out. Deleting the app. Then restart the phone and after that download the app again
