This worked for me when I got error code 3.  I did not use my email, but just the username.  Instead of username@gmail.com, I just typed in username.  Hopefully this works for others. (Note, this was for the app, not spotify.com)

Did you try your email address but leave off the @***mail part?

[ajones3006]

Yep. That's exactly what I did. Worked for me on my Mac Spotify app after I did that.

[I_AM_LOVE]

Thank you for suggesting using username instead of username@gmail.com.  I finally got logged on.

[sooraj_s]

Thank you. your solution worked fine for me. removed the @gmail.com and it logged in just fine

[dukecurto]

Yup, just your username, no email address fixes the error!

Just username, no email address gets you in

Yep, this was my problem too. Thanks for the solution!. Hey Spotify, how about fixing the issue so either the username or email will work?

Basically what I did was go to my email that my account was registered under and I searched for an old reset password email (thankfully I had one from like 2 days before) and I just reset my password with the link and now it works fine! I hope this helps!

Anyone a solution/ idea how to solve this issue ?

Thanks

Use whatever username you chose/made when you created your account for example

say my email was spotifymusic@gmail.com that does not mean your username will neccesarily be spotifymusic

Hi,
Thanks for reply, but tried that several times and it doesn't help.
Tried also to create a completely new account.. Same error.
Cheers,
Hairbert
