That's a sort of catch 22 - you need your password to change it. Peter's post on this same page sets out how to get a password reset.

Can't find PW the link just gets me to my profile, there is nothing there that tells me how to find or set PW.

To get a password reset:
1. Go to https://www.spotify.com/password-reset/
2. If you get redirected to your online profile (where you need to current password to make the change), you are still logged into the website. Click on your name at the top and choose Log Out.
3. Return to https://www.spotify.com/password-reset/ and you should be able to request a reset.

i have forgoten my password and unlike any normal large company there is no way to retrieve it and reset it. no email recieved when i have tried to get it sent to me. Absolutly rubbish service to make it so hard to retrieve a simple password definetly teh worst i have come across 

 

@patchrobertson1 - If you can't get a password reset following the steps I posted immediately above your post (be sure to check your junk/spam folders), then get in touch with support here and they will be able to provide you with a reset manually.

I can't reset my password without knowing my password. If I knew my password, I wouldn't need to be trying to re-set it. Could someone please help me?

Sam,

 

I also lost my password. When I go to the link you showed it allows me to change my password but asks that I enter the old password to make the change. I don't have my old password. How can I have it emailed to me or have a password email sent for reset.

Hi. I try to reset my password but I am asked for the old one. I have forgotten the password, so that is why I want to change. How can I get a new password without having to type in the one I cannot remember?

Why is it so difficult restting the spotify password?. When i fill out the "new password" form I am being prompted for my old (and de facto !) forgotten password.  I am being forced to log log in via Facebook. No support adress to receive email is given.

This is sub standard.

@zolide - Have you tried the steps in my post above? Sounds like you are logged into the website still when you are trying to get a reset.

I forgot my password. Spotify is requesting my old password to reset a new one. This makes no sense to me. How do I either retrieve my original passowrd (the one thta I have forgotten) or create a new one since I forgot my old one?

Thanks
