Can't download Spotify

Davidz75 — Sat, 29 Dec 2012 19:33:16 GMT

Hello!

I have a new computer and cannot download Spotify on my new computer that I have.

Have tried to disable the firewall on my computer but still doesn't it?

On my new computer, I have windows 7 and my last record, I had windows 7 with.

This response I got when I downloaded Spotify:

The installer was unable to connect to the internet. Please make sure the computer is connected to the internet and that no firewall is blocking the connection and try again.

Error code: 51

My internet works great and have tried with my firewall, no error at all. Must be a bug or reached. Please help me fix this problem soon!

Hear from you soon! Greetings

Does downloading the larger filesized installer from here work?

Same problem here: on windows 8 PC can't download Spotify. Keep getting message "can't download Spotify right now, will try in xx seconds". And starts its count down timer again and again without succeeding in downloading Spotify.

Probably should stop my Premium account?!

Apparently the installer isn't OK: the full setup file works fine:

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen of the Spotify-team,

Last month I took a premium 1-month free subscription, however, it is impossible to download music from your spotify site.

I mentioned Spotify in the list of firewall exceptions. I am using Windows Vista.

Please advise.

Thanks.

I also encountered this problem and your link worked for me as well! Thank you so much I already paid for the subscription and I thought I was about to have to go through a headache to get it fixed!

So why does Spotify make the full installer impossible to find? Seriously irresponsible, IMO.

Re: Can't download Spotify

Peter__ — Fri, 08 Mar 2013 09:33:30 GMT

I guess because the basic installer fills most peoples needs!

Clicking on the Full Installer just saves an "Unconfirmed" file to my Desktop, which can't be opened because I don't have the proper program...

Very strange, what browser are you using? (I think there are download issues with the metro internet explorer if you are using Windows 8).

Direct link is http://download.spotify.com/Spotify%20Installer.exe

I had Spotify on Windows 7 and it stopped working. I uninstalled it and tried to download it again. The first time I go Error Code 52 and the second time I got Error Code 101. I have disabled Windows Defender and Windows Firewall.

Hi,

I'm using Mac 10.5.8 and my Spotify was working fine until recently when it kept crashing. So I tried to reinstall it, as this had helped sometimes in the past. However, now when I download the installer I keep getting an error message saying an error occurred while trying to install Spotify and now I can't even install it. I have a premium account and really miss my music 😞 any help would be much appreciated.
