I have a Logitech K750 solar keyboard and the keys work fine with iTunes, but not Spotify. Any ideas?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Btw, I was able to get it working with an app called Karabiner . Enabling "Enable PC Prev/Next Media Keys" did the trick.
Hmm, trying to think of why it would be different. I am running 10.10.2, Karabiner 10.6.0, and Spotify 0.9.15.27.
I did notice that quitting Karabiner seemed to break things, but leaving it running and just closing the window worked fine.
In System Preferences - Keyboard, I have "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard" unchecked. The keyboard is set as a U.S. keyboard. And yes, it's a 750.

I've had several kudos on this post over the last year, indicating that I'm not alone in this problem. Please leave a comment to let Spotify know!
Same. Just purchased one of them and the function keys work in everything else (including VLC and iTunes) but not Spotify. Sigh.
I had this problem ~2 years ago. The keyboard later broke.. I bought a new one this week, figuring somebody would have fixed the problem by now.
No such luck.

While this isn't really a great solution, it is a solution. Thank you so much for posting it. I didn't know about this app! I just remapped using it and its working great now. Thanks again!
Can you please post screen shots of how you did this? I tried but with no success... when I check that option it actually makes the play button NOT work along with the other medis buttons... I still can't get the forward or reverse buttons to map correctly with my Logitech K750 😞

I know this is an old problem and people have solved it with key remapping, but I personally hate that solution (it shouldn't have to be so complex).
At any rate, I discovered that combining Alt/Option + <Next> (and <Back>) works as expected. I don't mind the additional Alt/Option keypress...
