Spotify log in through Sonos

Solved!

Spotify log in through Sonos

Hi,

I pay for a Spotify premium account and uses my Facebook log in..

The problem is that i can't log on to Spotify through my Sonos system with my facebook log in..

So I need to delete my account that I log on to with my Facebook, then create a new spotify log in, so that I can log on through Sonos, and then transfer my premium membership to my new account..

Can anyone guide me through this process, or explain an easier way to make my Sonos and my Spotify cooperate?

Hey,

You just need to create a new device password to sign in with, rather than using your Facebook details.

Hey I am having the same issues... I recently installed Sonos and am on the Premium trial but I cannot get the link to connect my devices with a password... when I click on the link you gave another user it really doesnt take me anywhere. The other issue is that I cannot remember my password so I login as my facebook account. Please help, I am desperate to link to all this fab music I have been storing up on Spotify - thanks

Christ. The product is expensive enough yet the idiot developers couldn't even get the login to sync up from a music software that everybody in the world listens to. It's a freaking amp, speaker cable, and a wirless router. Not rocket science idiots (I'm talking at the SONOS developers)... but I do "love" my Christmas present from my wife. It's just frustrating that's all. 

Go to the settings wheel then manage services the change your spotify account

Connect Spotify to your Sonos, Squeezebox, Onkyo, WD or Boxee Box system

 

Use Spotify with your Sonos, Squeezebox, Onkyo, WD or Boxee Box system

To use Spotify with any of these devices you need to login with your Spotify username and password (itโ€™s unfortunately not possible to use Facebook credentials).

You can retrieve your Spotify username and create your device password here

Once you have your Spotify username and your new password, please login to Spotify on your audio system with your new details. Note that you need a Premium subscription to use any of these devices with Spotify.

Upgrade your account to Premium here.

I did have a premium a/c but to be honest it has proved too much hassle , so I have just now uninstalled and will stick with my ipad and go for the cheaper a/c ..... I do not think facebook should be involved in login and i do not agree that sonos owners should have a spotify premium a/c just because they have sonos.... but thanks for your help... also sonos were no help and told me that because i am in ireland I couldnt get spotify ..yet all the playlists did download but wouldn't play , now I cant get them off the spotify system on sonos !!!! life is too short.... It would need to be made simple like livewire was  or such like ..again thanks fo r your help.
