I have the wrong facebook account linked to my spotify account

Solved!

I have the wrong facebook account linked to my spotify account

Hi,

 

I have no idea how but when I log into Spotify I now have my friend's Facebook account connected to it instead of mine.

 

I need to have it disconnected - I have followed numerous instructions (i.e. disconnected from Facebook under 'preferences') but it still continues to show her name on the top right hand corner when I log in and is connected to her account.

 

Can someone please help me disconnect her account from my Spotify?

 

Thank you.

Hey guys we're having a bit of trouble keeping up with all the posts in this thread so we might not be able to help you all out, as much as we'd like to.

 

If you're having problems please check the following:

1. Try disconnecting yourself in your Preferences (Mac: Spotify > Preferences | Win: Edit > Preferences). The option to disconnect will be at the bottom. [Only for users who created their account via Spotify]

2. See my thread here in case you've ended up with a duplicate account via Facebook3

3. Get in touch via our contact form and our support team will get back to you as soon as they can.

Who's your Spotify Star?

I have the same problem but you only allow us to sign up using a facebook account. I pay for premium so please allow me to reconnect to a different facebook account.

 

Please and thank you.

Facebook is no longer required to sign up. However, if you did sign up while it was required, you're permanently connected. In that case you need to create a new account.

 

If you don't want to be connected to Facebook, choose "Create an account with my email address" on the sign up page. Even if you do want a Facebook connection, I recommend this route because it allows you to connect and disconnect from Facebook accounts at any time.

When did the Facebook requirement get dropped?

I found out about it on August 30th. There was no announcement at all and there still isn't, they just quietly put a "sign up with email" link at the bottom of the signup page.

That is so screwed. I'm already jumping through hoops trying to get my play lists situated with the right account. Now I'll need to start over, since it was all due to a f'd up Facebook thing to begin with. But :'(

I really don't understand why Spotify is pushing Facebook logins so hard. A normal Spotify username can be connected and disconnected with Facebook at any time, but signing up through a Facebook login permanently ties your Spotify up to that Facebook account. Makes no sense.

 

You could try creating a new Spotify username and then asking support to move your playlists.
