[WP8] Music won't play

[voltronad]

I have the same issue - Spotify on my Lumia 920 will open, allow me to see my playlists, allow me to search music, but when I attempt to play anything it just loads and loads and loads.  I have let it sit there for up to 5 minutes with no luck (on both LTE and Wi-Fi).

-Device:  Lumia 920 (most current software update applied)

-Country: USA

-I have logged in using both my Spotify username and my Facebook account, I get the same issue using either.

Same exact issue I am having

UPDATE:  For anyone having the issue where it just loads a song and never plays I was able to fix this doing the following:

FIRST:  My set up:

-I have Spotify Premium, I originally set up a Spotify account but then linked it to my Facebook so I can login with either.  I tried using both and neither was working.

-I have my Facebook account set to higher security, so it sends me texts when trying to login (and so when I would login to spotify it was sending me a code to use).  I was able to login but no song played.

THE FIX:

-In facebook, I went to security and did "Generate App Password".  I used that password and logged in with my facebook account.

That worked!  Hope that might help some of you with a similar set up 🙂

Nice find, voltronad! I think that will help a lot of WP users.

Hi,

I have the same issue but I am not a Facebook user or account holder. The only thing I have done is accepted a shared playlist from another user who is linked to Facebook.  That could be be the cause surely?

Doesn't sound like the same cause. 

Can you describe the behaviour you are getting? First thing to try is a clean reinstallation of the app and see if that makes any difference.
