Problem with downloading

[MichalVocl]

Hello I have a problem. I can't download songs to my device and it says: The limit of the number of devices has been reached. I drowned my old phone so I don't know how to log out on it or anything....
Thank you for your advice.

Hi,

You can try to press the Sign out everywhere button here: https://www.spotify.com/account/sign-out-everywhere/

please remove my downloads

Hey there, welcome to the Spotify Community!

You can log out from all the devices and this should remove the downloads from those devices as well. To process, please head over to the security and privacy section of your account settings on spotify.com and click sign out everywhere. You can also click here for a direct link.

Once that is done, try downloading on your current device.

I hope that helps. Let me know if you need help with anything else.

My Question or Issue

had to change to a new smart phone. Spotify login ok, but when I try to download my old lists, I keep getting the message "too many devices active" although I completely deleted the previous device. I tried to reload, delete, login again, ... nothing works! PLS HELP

Hey there @abbidabbi70,

Thanks for reaching out here in the Community. 

Just to confirm, have you tried removing the downloads from the previous phone by going to Settings > Remove all downloads or by completely clearing the app's cache and data? 

If so and you're still seeing the device limit, you can reach out to our Support team here. They'll be able to check your account and remove your offline devices from their end so that you can download music on your new phone. 

Hope this helps. If anything else comes up, the Community will be here.

Cheers!

Hi there,

Thanks for posting in the Community!

In this case, log into one of the old devices where you're no longer using Spotify, tap on your profile picture > Settings and privacy > go to Storage > select Remove all downloads.

You can also remove the downloads manually and for more info you can check out this article. 

Hope this helps and we're here if you need us 🙂

Hey folks,

Thanks for posting in the Community and welcome.

We hope you don't mind us answering in English as this is the official language of the forum.

That being said, keep in mind, you can download as many as 10,000 songs on each of up to 5 different devices. You can read how this works here.

You can remove your downloads by starting Spotify on the device which no longer needs the downloaded content and using the Remove all downloads button by going to Settings> Storage. If perhaps you use a computer device, you can remove downloads there manually, by locating the downloaded content.

@anibal22, remember a device can stay offline for a maximum of 30 days, then all offline content will be disabled and the license will be revoked. Once a license has been revoked, you can download offline music on a new device.

Nonetheless, you can also reach out to our Customer Support team, so they can help you by adding some insights and further advice about your account. You can find how to contact them here.

We hope you found this helpful. We're always here to help.

Cuando quiero descargar una canción me dice que alcance el límite de dispositivos y solo lo uso en mi celular, no en otro dispositivo

[#13]

No puedo descargar musica

[#14]

I have got a new phone and cannot download any songs as I have run out of offline devices. I have wiped my old phone and no longer have it.

How can I download songs on my new device and remove my old one?

[#15]

I can't download playlists on my new phone because i have reach the limit of 5 devices. I want to remove the phone that i lost because I can't use it anymore.

Hey there, welcome to the Spotify Community!

You can log out from all the devices where you are logged in from your account page. Please head over to Spotify.com and log into your account. Then you can proceed to your account overview.

Scroll down, and you can find the sign-out everywhere option under Security and privacy. Once done, you can check if you are able to download content to your main device or not.

Let me know how it goes.

My Question or Issue

I wanted to download playlists of songs to my Iphone for offline listening before a flight but received a message that the number of maximum devices has been reached, and was not allowed to proceed. About a month ago my phone got destroyed and Apple had to replace it.  This was highly frustrating as I was about to go on a 4 hour plane ride with no music to listen to. I searched around on the various settings and account parts of the app but could not find anywhere to manage or view the offline devices. Where do I go to do this?
