iPad 1 iOS 5.1.1 - Spotify no longer loads

[dezsr5]

Since the last update, Spotify no longer loads. I have deleted and re-downloaded the app and it I get a notice saying you need to download 6.0.0 or would you like an older version. I say yes to the older version. Spotify downloads bit will not start when I "click" on it. Please let me know what can be done. I have been a paying customer for the last 2 years. Thank you.

Hmmm.......it should have downloaded spotify 0.7.2 which is the most recent compatible version for iOS 5, I think. If it installed but won't run, could you try the steps in this post.

Have you got the app installed or are you having issues getting it from the App Store?

Same problem. I have been a Spotify Premium subscriber for almost a year and suddenly the app has disappeared from my first generation Ipad. Incredible. New version is not compatible and Itunes has not allowed me to restore the backup version 0.7.6 that until a few days ago worked perfectly. App Store didn't allow me to install a previous version. It just appear on light grey and did't let me re install. Please, help!

This has been escalated as an issue @vidbcn . Hopefully the Spotify guys will be able to fix it soon!

Looks like its been a couple weeks since an update here. I'm having the same problem on my first gen iPad. I'm a paying subscriber to the service for 6 months or so now and am very disappointed with this.

Got Spotify premium as an Xmas present. It won't load on an iPad ver 1 running ios v5.xxx   (current one for that device). Saw from the postings that it's a Spotify problem that hasn't been fixed. Just putting my two cents in. Please fix it.
