Part 1. Fix Deezer Signing up Fails
When you want to use Deezer and sign up, maybe it shows “Deezer is not available in your country.”
How to fix:
As of the end of 2021, Deezer is available in up to 187 countries and regions around the world, except China, India, and other several countries or regions. To fix the problem you should bypass geo-blocking. Here are the three ways.
1. Use a VPN. Download and install a reliable VPN app. Log in to your account, sometimes you are required to purchase the service, but just ensure that your account can be used. Then choose an available route, and make sure the region can receive Deezer services. And you can sign up for Deezer. VPN is very popular for its security and privacy features, and it is the best method.
2. Use a Smart DNS. It is very similar to VPN. You can download and install a piece of DNS software. Log in to your account and choose an available route. A few VPN service providers also offer Smart DNS, just choose based on your needs. Generally speaking, Smart DNS is not as secure and private as VPN, but it is faster.
3. Use a Proxy Server. A proxy server has hardware and software versions. Generally, the software version is the mostly used one. You need to download and install one. Software proxy often requires a monthly fee. There are free proxies but they only cover a few devices. It is not as secure as a VPN but is more private than DNS.
Part 2. Cannot Download Deezer Music for Offline Listening
Sometimes you would like to download Deezer tracks for offline listening, but you find you can’t.
How to fix:
In general, there are two kinds of Deezer accounts, free and premium. Currently, only a Deezer premium account can enjoy offline mode. So you should check if your account is premium. If not, upgrade your free account to a premium account.
If you don’t want to subscribe to Deezer all the time, see Part 4.
Part 3. Fix Saved Deezer Music Greyed out and Cannot Play
If the content is greyed out and cannot play, it may be because you're not connected or the license is invalid.
How to fix:
1. If you have downloaded Deezer music to your devices before, but cannot play it, check if the network is connected first. Make sure that when using Deezer the network is available.
2. If the saved music cannot be played at all under good network conditions, it mostly is because the license agreement changed or expired. Or Deezer has no right to use the music. You can send a request to the Deezer team for the copyright regain.
Part 4. Fail to Access the Downloaded Music Files
Users must have found that they cannot find their downloads from Deezer on their computer, even under an available premium account. It is because Deezer stores the downloads only within the app, and users are not allowed to access them.

Part 5. Cannot Load the Requested Content
If there is an error "The requested content cannot be loaded", it may be due to a connection issue or full smart cache within Deezer.

2. Clear smart cache for Deezer. Tap the “Settings” button on Deezer, select “Data and storage”, scroll down to get “Disk usage”, and press “Clear all”. Pay attention, this operation will clear your downloads too.

It may have happened to many Deezer users that the downloaded music cannot play. But you have downloaded them before.
