Updating Spotify fails every time

Dear Community, every time I reboot my notebook, i need to deinstall Spotify before i have to reinstall it. Otherwise I always get the Error 14, that says, that spotify wasn't installed correctly. After doing that, there is a popup showing that there is a new version of spotify. Does this make sense? Isn't the installer downloading the latest version every time?But all the install and deinstall process is annoying. So what to do? Regards, Ulf

Try a clean reinstall as well as deleting the cache folders
First uninstall Spotify and then delete these folders if they exist:
C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Spotify
and C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Spotify
After that reinstall Spotify
If you can't find the folder, try this:
Uninstall Spotify: Start > Control Panel > Programs / Uninstall a Program > Spotify
Find your AppData folder and delete all Spotify data.
Start, run, type: %appdata% and hit enter
You probably see 4 folders; enter each and see if they contain a folder called Spotify. Delete the entire Spotify folder.
Restart your computer at this point.
Reinstall Spotify (download)

  • HT3180 Apple Tv wants to update but fails every time - even after restart and pulling the power.

    Please advise how to get the unit to accept the latest update.

    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.
    If when you choose restore you get a message that the device cannot be found, download the file below
    Apple TV Software Restore 5.1.1 (2nd generation)
    Apple TV Software Restore 5.1.1 (3rd generation)
    Then hold down the option key while choosing restore and select the downloaded file when prompted.

  • I am getting error (-1) while updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1. The phone has gone into a recovery mode. Restore fails every time at "restoring the firmware" stage. Striped bar remains for a long time, then shows "error (-1)" and the restore fails. Help!

    Thanks for your reply Michalo. I am in India and here Apple care does not work on Sundays. I have been without my phone for the entire day. Perhaps tomorrow will bring some respite. There is not solution to "error (-1)" on any forum it seems. I found one forum which suggested use of Tiny Umbrella. Any idea about that?

  • HT4623 ios7.0.6 fails every time trying to update now what?

    ios7.0.6 fails every time trying to update now what?

    Are you updating over wi-fi, or cellular data?  Or through iTunes. If you get the mesaage that the update is not available . Make sure you have the correct date and time on you phone. then try again.

  • I have been trying to update my cc info and for some reason it has kept saying that the cc info does not match with the bank so the transcation failed every time I was trying to download something even when it's free but my cc got charged $1.- each time.

    I have been trying to update my cc info but for some reason it has kept saying the cc info did not match with the bank info so the transaction failed every time I made an attempt to download something even it was free. However, I saw my cc online got charged $1.00 everything I was trying to update my cc info ...why?

    Im wondering why my post hasn't been answered yet.  I did file a report with the BBB and I had a rude representative from Verizon call me named Steve. He said I can file all of the reports I want and I will just keep getting calls from him.  I can understand why my phone couldn't be replaced because of the small crack.  I guess I have to eat that one (but it sucks because the lollipop update is what caused the problems)  but what about all of the data overage I had to pay for for trying to fix this phone because of a lollipop update.  I dont think it is fair to have to pay that as well. In addition,  because I have an east coast phone number but live on the west coast, I cannot have tech support after 8pm.  Verizon has cut this off.  Im very dissatisfied and I have been a customer of Verizon for 13 years.  Im hoping for a response this time.

  • Update to 10.5.1.A.0.283 fails every time

    Update to 10.5.1.A.0.283 fails every time
    It is Xperia Tablet Z SGP321, no branding, no SIM lock.
    In the past only Sony original firmware were flashed.
    Currently 10.4.1.B.0.101 is inside.
    Update to 10.5.1.A.0.283 using PCC fails on every attempt.
    PCC was updated to latest available version.
    The whole progress looks like following
    - first PCC carries out the preparation stage
    - than PCC reports to carry out download
    - as soon as progress bar at approx. 50% of whole scale the preparation stage 
     is entered again
    - it takes very long time, between 5 and 10 minutes, till the progress bar reaches 
    nearly 100%
    - download procedure ends with following message
     error code 10, a hint to check firewall settings if PCC and Sony Update Engine
     are passed through, a hint to retry later
    - switch off firewall
    - switch off antivirus
    - disable all protection mechanism in Windows EMEA
    - uninstall PCC, reboot, install  PCC of current version again
    All the above measures do not help.
    One week ago the Sony Support claimed I should retry some time later.
    How long do I have to wait for retry? a week, a month, a year, 10 years, 20 years?
    It is a big effort to get this device close to the windows desktop device
    with PCC installed and running on it, to get connected this device with such windows desktop device,
    to invoke PCC and the update procedure. All this effort just to see in the end the update
    does still no succeed!!!!
    How long do I have to live with Xperia and obsolete Android on it?

    The point of trying a different computer is that it gives information. 
    If it works you know that your PC is the problem. 
    If not, you have to look further. 
    And finally - if nothing works  - you can try to flash it. 
    My Sony z is working like reborn after a clean install. 
    It takes some time to learn,  but after that it isn't that difficult. 
    My tablet works like before KitKat (sd-card) ,  but with the new functions. 
    No serious bugs whatsoever anymore.!

  • Updating Adobe Community Help files fails every time after starting

    Hello,
    I e.g. go to «Support Center for Photoshop» from the menu within the app. Adobe Community Help starts up and tells me theres new content, do I want to download that. It seems to start the dl just fine, then reports an error «16882» (if I'm remembering it right).
    Why? We have very fast very broadband internet connection and I use a 2011 27" iMac with max Gig RAM installed.
    Any hints there would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Thanks, Mister Kapoor,
    that solved my problem!
    All the best to you, sincerely,

    Seems Adobe Air or Cummunity help has gone cprrupt. Lets follow the below suggestions:
    Step 1: Uninstall adobe air from Utilities and re-install the latest adobe AIR from "http://get.adobe.com/air/otherversions/"
    Step 2: Follow "http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/842/cpsid_84215.html" and re-install the Community Help Air application.
    Step 3: Restart the machine and launch adobe Community Help and try to install all the updates and check if it works fine.
    Hope that Helps!.

  • Bought some stuff on the app store - now it asks to validate payment option but fails every time!?

    I bought a couple things on the App store which came to £5.98.
    Now every time I try to download or update any apps it asks to validate my payment option but fails every time but the money has been taken from my bank - I've scheduled Apple support to call me tomorrow night but if anyone nows a way around this at all I'd appreciate it.

    Take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646
    If that doesn't help, go here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store. Similarly contact them regarding the overcharge.
    Regards.

    not able to make outgoing calls in iphone4. Regularly i face this problem, at the same time i receive incoming call, can do net surfing, can access email and sms, only outgoing calls get failed every time. please answer to solve this problem

    Good day Sidharth Namrta,
    It sounds like you are unable to make any calls, but you can recieve them, and everything else seems to work fine. I recommend you use the troubleshooting in the following article to help you get that resolved, named:
    iPhone: Troubleshooting issues making or receiving calls
    Follow the steps below to resolve this issue. Please test after each step.
    Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
    Check your phone settings:
    Check your Do Not Disturb settings: Tap Settings > Do Not Disturb.
    Check for any blocked phone numbers: Tap Settings > Phone > Blocked.
    See if Call Forwarding is turned on: Tap Settings > Phone > Call Forwarding.
    Ensure that your software is up to date:
    Check for a carrier settings update.
    Check for an iOS software update. 
    Note: Some updates may require a Wi-Fi connection.
    If the iPhone has a SIM card, reseat the SIM card.
    If the iPhone 4 or iPhone 4s is on the Verizon network, dial *228 from the iPhone and select option 2 to update the Preferred Roaming List (PRL). The PRL determines the cellular towers the phone uses for cellular service, selecting those with the best signal strength.
    Reset the network settings: Tap  Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Try to make or receive calls in another location.
    Attempt to isolate to one network band:
    If you're having the issue on LTE, disable LTE, if possible, and try again.
    If you're having the issue on 3G/4G, disable 3G/4G, if possible, and try again.
    Contact the carrier to check the following:
    Your account is properly configured to use the specific iPhone that has the issue.
    There are no localized service outages.
    Your account doesn't have a billing-related block.
    Your calls don't have errors on the carrier system.
    Restore the phone as new.
    If the above steps don't resolve the issue, go to an Apple Retail Store, carrier, Apple Authorized Reseller, or contact AppleCare to send the phone in for service.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • Rtorrent hash check fails every time

    I have rTorrent 0.7.1 / libTorrent 0.11.1 installed. After downloading any torrent, rtorrent does the hash check and it fails every time. I restart it, it does the hash check again and then resumes the download from 90%+
    Do I do something wrong? Is there a setting I miss?

    There were problems with rtorrent and kernel 2.6.19. Have you updated to 2.6.20 yet?
    -edit-
    Actually, I'm not sure whether it was fixed in 2.6.20.

  • Iv downloaded the 0845 wizard from the App Store. Registered my details and it has been working. But for some reason it won't let me log in and keep saying failed every time I try to use it. Iv deleted and re-downloaded the app and it still says the same?

    I would say to start by looking on their web site... unfortunately, that appears to be dead.
    Based on the horrible ratings on the App Store (1 star for the current version), I'm not surprised it doesn't work well.

    You need iTunes 11.1 which is not available for download in google chrome or other browsers.  The only browser it has worked for with me is Safari.  Hope this helps!
