Spotify login error (8) cannot connect to Spotify

[Jemenjiv1]

Currently I'm having issues having my spotify premium account connect to my algoriddim djay pro app. When I log on to djay pro it's stating "spotify login error" "cannot connect to spotify (8)". Although my spotify app works fine, it seems it's having difficulty connecting to my djay pro app

I've already tried logging off both apps and restarting my iPad. And same thing occurs. It's just frustrating especially when you can't practice for your upcoming gigs

Did you ever figure this out I'm getting the error

[Jemenjiv1]

No no one has really replied or helped, it worked for a couple weeks. But it just went back to the same error. Login out then back in of these apps has not helped at all.

I have recently found that if you have multiple spotify apps or DJ pro apps on different devices, you have to make sure to log off all of those first as well. Then restart the devices. That has worked a couple times for me.

This is annoying someone please fix this problem

I've been getting that for a couple years on and off now, it happens with any Dj app with spotify integration. Logging out of everything is not a solution in my case.

It keeps happening to me too. I've been down for two days now

Man, I haven't been able to use my spotify app with my djay2 program in months. Terrible support from either company

I had the same issue, ONLY if I'm not connected to wifi but it sucks i can't use it outside on the road, I thought it was an app issue so I bought the Pro for iPhone and gave me the same error, so upset

[Error8]

I did the exact same thing

Ok so I recently got this problem and I fixed it too. But I cannot guarantee that it is a 100% fix guarantee since I have only one device to test it on. Ok so I have my iPhone on LTE only most of the time the wifi option is disabled 90% of my day(I forget it that it is turned off) and I was getting login error 8 while on LTE. So I decided to turn on my wifi option on and as soon as it connected to the internet the error disappeared and it started loading the tracks. I was surprised that it worked so just be sure that this was the problem I disconnected from the internet and again as soon as I disconnected from internet i started getting login error (8). My guess in the settings inside the app it has an option were it doesn't let spotify music play while not being connected to internet. I think djay is trying to help you save your data which makes complete sense too. Hope this helps you guys.

Same thing is happened to me I guess they both having a copyright issue it has nothing to do with the phone ,internet ,or update .. that sucks since that's the only reason I got Spotify cause it works perfectly with DJ 2

[dj2big]

no way!
its working on wifi

[dj2big]

It’s a TMobile issue I have Tmobile and Verizon 

my verizon is working perfectly 

[DjRubenSkeet]

If you have T-Mobile LTE data plan the only way to get this to work is via a WiFi connection. Best option is to download app on a Wireless device and use your hotspot from your Mobile LTE plan thats what I ended up doing and I have a gig in about a week.

It's not a Djay or spotify issue... it's a t-mobile issue. It has to do with their 'music freedom' and the way that the t-mobile service prioritizes the data... somehow it breaks the third party spotify connection.

1. This is evidenced by several things:
Same thing happens with several other apps on the phone:
Pacemaker
Djay
Pyro

2. On wi-fi it works perfect
3. On a hotspot with another carrier it works fine

4. on other carriers it works fine

I've contacted t-mobile several times to try to fix this and get no where.
If there was a simple way to just turn off 'music freedom' i'm quite certain it would fix the issue.

The other option would be spotify allowing 3rd parties (with agreements) to use offline music. But that doesn't seem to be changing either.

[Error8]

I've since found other DJ programs that integrate music steaming services but there arent many that you can control the tempo with and I absolutely agree it's a wi fi issue. sad though djay is still the superior app also i've contacted Tmobile about this and they said it was Spotify's fault who said the app's fault anyway thanks for the info

T-Mobile problem. I don't know what, but it's t-mobile
