Username or Password incorrect (Error code: 3)

I'm glad it helped. I guess Spotify is such a massive organisation that it can't be on top of everything all the time, but simple things like this, as you say, should be made clear in the FAQ section. Something so simple, yet it's causing so much unnecessary frustration.

Holy heck that is some boneheaded, unintuitive software development. Who are these people who program things like this? Not a single indication that I would need to enter anything other than my email address, and yet this solved my problem.

I had this problem too and I solved because my login way was wrong. I put my complete email adress instead to put only the login name (or first email name). Try it. It worked for me.

The solution for this problem is below:

Go to spotify.com/account, you will see all the information about your account, here in the Profile, you will see your username: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Profile

Username

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Email

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@gmail.com

Copy that username and use your password, and log in to table/PC/smartphone whatever, you won't get the error again.
