My Question or Issue
For the past month I've been unable to play songs from new artists completely. I click play on for example Loqiemean's Повес2ка album, current song stops playing as it should, progress bar at 0:00, cover photo resets to default, no artist/song shown, only the favourite button.
Was planning on entirely dropping Spotify, support is my last hope.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I've had the exact same problem since about Saturday. Just like you said it won't let me play stuff from artists I haven't listened too before. I tried everything and nothing seems to work. Btw Spotify on my phone works fine, Spotify downloaded on my computer is having this issue. Let me know if any of you guys get an answer.
I've also been experiencing this problem. The only solution I have found on multiple threads is to uninstall and reinstall Spotify, but this seems to be a temporary fix rather than a permanent one. I really hope the devs can get on top of this problem, because it's super obnoxious to deal with and almost makes me want to go back to Soundcloud.
EDIT: I found a solution here
Same thing has been happening to me for the past couple weeks. I've honestly stopped listening to Spotify because of it. Reinstalling only fixes it until computer restart.
yup, this happened to me too, I reinstalled spotify and now I can't play any of spotify songs, I can play only local files xD
Bought Premium, problem went away 🙂
Update: I uninstalled and reinstalled Spotify today. The problem got worse. Now I can't play anything from spotify at all. Only local files.
Having the same issue, I can't play anything on Windows 10 desktop app except my pre-existing playlists.
Restarting, reinstalling didn't help.
HELP!
I am experiencing the same issue. I noticed it last week Friday when I tried to play a new released album. Tried the same stuff, remove - install - kill - change install source from microsoft store to web download etc. All playlists were fine and I had to make a playlist out of the album in order to play it. I ended up to search for some random older version of spotify and that worked fine. Currently on version 1.2.8.923.g4f94bf0d and the same issue exists. I am on premium plan.
