Spotify closes when undocking laptop

For some reason, when I physically eject my laptop from its docking station (like, if I want to move my laptop from my desk to another location) Spotify closes itself. It doesn't seem to matter if I have my music playing or not, although I generally have it paused at that point the vast majority of the time. I can restart Spotify just fine afterwards. I am using Windows 7 Professional, and I have a Dell-brand laptop and docking station.
Has this happened to anyone else? If so, did you figure out a way to keep it from happening? It's not a huge deal by any means, but it is a little weird.

I haven't ever received an official response, and it still does it for me occasionally (not every single time, though) regardless of which Spotify version I have, since I generally update when prompted. Like others have said, it also defaults to some pretty old tracks when I reopen it... like, something that I had listened to the week prior, which can be a pain sometimes. One thing that seems to maybe help a little is if I do not pause my music when undocking my laptop. I work in a pretty casual office, though, and I listen to very calm (and quiet!) music, so this is definitely not a solution for everyone.

  • Windows Aero Theme Disabled When Undocking Laptop

    Hi everyone,
    My problem is quite simple (at least to explain). I am using  a X230 bought in August 2012 with the Ultrabase docking station and a Philipps external display (not sure about the exact reference, but I don't think it's relevant anyway) connected to the docking station via VGA. All in all, the computer has everything needed to run high quality graphics.
    When my laptop is docked, everything works perfectly fine with regards to display: desktop is extended over the two screens, Windows Aero features work fine, etc. 
    When I undock my laptop, the aero mode is automatically disabled (even when I am plugged in and not running on battery), and the left side of my screen has no "edge" (i.e. behaves just like the extended desktop, as if the external display, which is usually on the left, were connected and running).
    Concerning the Aero problem, I ran the Aero troubleshooter, which returned two issues to be solved:
    1. Color depth is too low. I checked this, and it's set on 32 bit TrueColor already, so this should not be an issue
    2. Desktop Windows Manager is disabled. Once again, this feature seems to be running (I went to Services->Desktop Window Manager and it seems to be OK). 
    I have tried several solutions found on the internet/microsoft forums, but none worked. I am pretty sure that this problem appeared after a Windows update (a massive one, as I have disabled automatic update).Oh, and the Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel doesn't show up either. It shows up in the taskbar when I open it, but I don't get any dialog box/program on my screen.
    Regarding the "fake" extended desktop... well apart from checking that there is only one display detected when I'm undocked, I don't really know what to look for. This is less of a problem though, as I can easily live with it.
    Many thanks,
    Matthieu

    I may have come up with a new lead on this issue. I found this thread on the Apple forum:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4580006?start=0&tstart=0
    I have exactly the same problem with Quicktime and it may be worth trying to uninstall/reinstall the graphics driver. I really don't want to screw things up though. 
    How should I proceed? Should I use the "uninstall driver" in the control panel? What will happen next: black screen, poor resolution? After I'm done, is this the correct driver I should reinstall?

  • Outlook 2010 sticks on "Trying to Connect" when undock Laptops and VPN Connects Automatically

    When our users undock their laptops the VPN kicks in automatically.  All of the other network services just continue seamlessly.  Outlook, however, sticks at "trying to connect".  This is often accompanied by a password prompt. 
    This is easily solved by closing Outlook and reopening it (no need to enter password).
    It doesn't seem unreasonable that outlook should require a restart after being disconnected like this.  Just want to establish whether there is a way to have Outlook just re-connect without the need to close it and reopen it.  Or is the need to
    restart it unavoidable?
    Thanks.

    This is really a question for the Outlook forum, but from what I have seen over the years, thats just the way it is with OUtlook and MAPI or Outlook Anywhere. When you change the network, Outlook struggles..
    Having said that, MAPI over HTTP with Exchange 2013 SP1 is working to eliminate those issues:

  • My itunes music stops playing when my laptop screen closes down after about 5 min. im using windows7

    my itunes music stops playing when my laptop screen closes off after about 5minutes. im using windows7

    DriveReadySeekComplete errors are either:
    - IDE controler failure
    - Bad cables
    - Bad harddisk
    Out of these 3, the last one sounds the most reasonable with nowadays harddrives. And yes, your system will hang when all your important processes are hanging while trying to do disk I/O.
    What windows does is switching back to PIO mode and never report anything, until you hit the nice BSOD telling you to replace the floppydisk in drive C...

    ronicr76,
    First it would be helpful if you post the exact model, year and OS version you have.
    > The LED light is on but only when the laptop is closed<
    So that light is the sleep indicator and tells us that the laptop is going to sleep when you close the lid. That would be normal behavior so the machine is still working. Possibly you're experiencing a backlight failure. With the machine supposedly "on" use a flashlight to carefully examine the screen. Do you see the desktop? Yes? machine is still running and something is wrong with the backlight.
    You should immediately backup your computer or at the very least pull vital files off. With the computer hooked to another Mac (The way this is done depends on the exact MacBook, E.g.FireWire 800 to FireWire 800.) Then you restart the computer and hold the "t" key down. This puts your MacBook into "target mode":
    How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
    Once your files are off try an SMC reset:
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    Are you able to get the backlight back on by opening and closing the display? Yes? Broken backlight cable refer to qualified service place. Even if it doesn't come on and you can still see the desktop with a flashlight it is still probably the backlight. Could be the a backlight problem also.

    Hi,
    Open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Display Devices - make a note of the hardware listed here i.e. ATI, NVidia or Intel.
    Next, connect your notebook via HDMI to your Tv.  Right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click once ( just to highlight the entry ) the HDMI Output that has the same name as your display adapter and then click the Set Default button - see if you now have audio.

  • VI front panel won't close when it's done executing, when this vi was called by reference.

    I've created a simple vi set to demonstrate the issue I'm having. I'm dynamically launching sub vi's from a main application. Simply put the main application is my test exec and the subvi's I'm calling dynamically are different tests. In the example I'm posting here the test vi is called Electrical Test 1.vi. I've configured this Electrical Test 1.vi to show front panel when called and close afterwards if originally closed.  Problem is it won't close the front.
    Other things to keep in mind
    I want to be able to launch the test vi and not wait till it's done.
    I'm using LabVIEW 2012 SP1.
    Solved!

    Basically the close after call only matters if the VI is called as a subVI (just like if you open a VI yourself and run it, it doesn't close when it is done).  The two ways around this are to either have your top lvl app close the VI when it is done, this is explained here:
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/987B2026B41BD39786256CF800032E8C
    or to have your VI close itself when it is done.  Use a This VI reference and the Front Panel:Close invoke node.
    Hope this helps.

    If you think there is a genuine problem with firefox
    * see [[high memory usage]] <-- clickable link -- <br/> that contains some tips and information about memory usage
    * go to ''about:memory'' by keying that into the location bar <br/> the report that is generated may be of help - it gives tooltip info on mouseover of items, and has a button that tries to reduce memory usage

  • DW CS6 - Spry collapsible panels - How to have panel close when you click away from it?

    I know typically onmouseout is used to close other items, but I could not figure it out with the spry collapsible panel. I have the panel opening onclick and closing onclick, but I would really like for it to close when you click anything else on the page outside of the panel.
    Thank you!

    Sorry, I did not mean other collapsing panels close when you click away from it. I simply meant in general for the closing after clicking away function, you can use onmouseout. I was working on something with collapsing panels and I wanted it to show the information when you clicked on it, but when you click on another panel, they both remain open. I really want both to close. I believe accordion does this, but not quite what I am looking for either.
    Here is a better example of what I would prefer: Houston Public Library
    If you visit their page and click "Find it" a box pops down with information and then when you click anywhere else on the screen, it closes that box. When you click "Research," it closes the "Find It" box and opens the "Research" box. There is likely a much better way to do this, but I am pretty new to this.
    Any assistance is very much appreciated.
    Thank you!

  • CAN NO LONGER DOWN LOAD MUSIC TO MY SEPERATE HARD DRIVE AS ITUNES CLOSES WHEN I TRY TO CHANGE THE SETTINGS

    i am unable to down load my itunes music onto a sperate hard drive as itunes closes when i try to change the settings

    i dont know much about computers but I think this happened to me before.
    as I said i hardly know computers. i think I unplugged the hard drive all cables and i turned the computer off too. plug it all again and see if it grabs it again. i did it and it worked. some how the extHD gets stuck on on. so thats why I unplugged it all. I dont know if you want to try that.

  • IPhoto closes when double clicking thumbnails or importing

    Hi, iPhoto keeps closing every time I double-click a thumbnail in an album. It also closes when trying to import photos. By "close" I do not mean crash/unexpectedly closed; the window and application just disappears.
    I looked into my CrashReport logs and no iPhoto file is there. However, the following screenshot is from Console after iPhoto closed.
    I'm not sure if this is the culprit but I did use the application Monolingual a week ago. I can't remember if iPhoto worked after using Monolingual. I removed every language except English, removed every input menu except AppleKeyboardsLayouts, and I removed the ARM and PowerPc architectures (which were all highlighted by default). I can post Monolingual's log file if it can be of any help to you.
    Thanks for your help. I appreciate it.

    Thanks for your replies guys. First I don't know happened to the screenshot I posted but here it is again. I hope you guys were/are able to get anything from it.
    When I first noticed the issue I backed up my iPhoto library. Next I upgraded to Snow Leopard since this computer was running Leopard. I also upgraded to iPhoto '09 since it was running an older version. Still no fix. I then uninstalled iphoto and its pref files with appzapper and then reinstalled iPhoto '09. Again no luck. I then created a new user account and the same thing happens- no fix.
    @Terrance- I opened the app Monolingual and I see that the default languages selected include: Austrailia, Canada, New Zealand, UK, and US English, which I deleted. The Language just "English" is not selected and was not deleted. Could this be it?
    Thanks again. I will look into the links you provided, Madison and will be back to report with points.
