Spotify stops playing after 1minute

[JohannaN]

Since you guys wouldn't give the other once a helpful answer I hope you'll finally take your te and listen/read this.

So for 2weeks I've had the same problem, my tracks starts playing but stops again at 1minute, and it doesn't stop in a way that it isn't synced, there just the music that stops coming an the play button is still there (as if it's playing normally).
I've tried:
Reinstalling spotify
Restarting my iPhone
Synced with my computer
Restarted my wifi/Internet
Used offline playlist (all tracks fully synced)

So where is the real problem my dear spotify crew? I've tried all of the stuff you've told me and others. Nothing helped anyone of us. I'm so furious I could probably throw my iPhone out of the window, I miss my daily music. Don't ignore this problem like I've seen some other posts getting ignored.. It's a great concept that you're having with spotify and it's just truly sad that my spotify havnt been working properly for about 2weeks.

Hello,

Just tried on an iOS device here and it seems to be working fine at the moment - rather odd! Have you updated to the latest version of Spotify over on the App Store? This might resolve this issue.

This used to happen to me, but I upgraded iOS (I had 4.3.1) to the latest version and since then the app has worked fine

My issue actually showed itself AFTER I updated to the latest version from the App Store.  It will only play one full song and then just stop playing.  I have SHUFFLE and REPEAT enabled, and it's happened with any of my playlists.  I have tried force closing the app to restart Spotify, restarting of my iPhone, and even the deletion and reinstall of the app to my phone.  At this point my premium subscription is rather useless.

I have the same problem as the original poster, have had it with every version of Spotify for iPhone. Have also tried everything. It is rather mindboggling how the app can stop the playback in the middle of a fully synced offline track. The problem occurs regardless of wheter I'm on wifi, 3g or offline.

I have the same problem, music stops after one minute but the play button looks as if the music is still playing. If i close down the app and open it again it says that the track cant be played in offline mode and that i should connect to a network, but its not in offline mode and i am conected....HELP!

[Whitershade]

Same problem here! The track runs for about a minute and then it just stops. If I turn Spotify off and then on again, it might be the same problem all over again - or it won't play any track at all. Frustrating! Spotify works just fine on my laptop. The problem with using Spotify on my iPhone started a couple of weeks ago. Help!

Yoyo - How are you closing down the application?

[Yoyo]

ive tried closing the multitask, alla others as well and olnly opening spotify, ive tried deleting the app and reinstalling..

[David]

Another thing you might want to try is to head over to the Settings menu, and try changing the streaming quality. This might stop the tracks from stopping after a minute. 

[Yoyo]

The streamin is in "normal" mode...

[David]

Yoyo - Try changing Streaming to "High" and trying to play tracks again.

[Yoyo]

That prolonged the playing to 1:32 but then it stops again and its the same problem again...

This problem started happening to me after the last update on my IPOD.  Never had an issue .  I have done all the typical things.  Deleted/Reloaded.  Removed all my other accounts on my devices, etc...  Happens on all playlists.  Help!!!!!  My wife is on my a-- to fix.

My problem is the same. Plays a song for a minute and 27-32 seconds then stops. Whether its on a playlist, online or offline and searching a song. Radio doesn't work either. I have reinstalled spotify a few times, turned off my phone and changed in my settings to high streaming etc. I have the premium account and updated to latest version. After updating I started having this problem(about a week or so). This only happens on my phone, my laptop it works fine. Please let me know how to fix this. I don't want to cancel my subscription, but if this continues I have to.
