Hi there,

 

Welcome to the Community and thanks for reaching out!

 

When you log in to your account on the desktop app, your login details are automatically cached so that you don't have to reenter them the next time you open the app. Currently, there is no option to turn this off, I'm afraid, but as a workaround you can delete the prefs file found in the app's installation folder, which holds info about the currently logged in account's preferences:

  1. Open Finder on your iMac and click Go > Library (if you don't have hidden folders enabled, press the option key first and it should appear).
  2. Go to Application Support > Spotify.
  3. There you'll find a file called prefs, which holds info about the currently logged in account. Simply delete it.
  4. Restart Spotify.

Note that you'll be logged out and your settings will be reset, so you'll have to adjust them again.

 

You can also use the Web Player instead.

 

Hope this info was useful. Cheers!
