Windows/Mac Deezer Desktop/Web App - Bugs/Issues/Workarounds

 

 Our Desktop/Web app can improve, and we need your help :desktop:

This is the topic dedicated to all problems you may face when using our desktop and web apps, big or small.

 What should I post here? :thinking:

  • if the app is acting in an unusual way, when you click on the menus and buttons, for example
  • if the player is displaying error messages, or if the playback is interrupted, let us know
  • if you're unable to login, or if the app kicks you out, we need to be aware too
  • if it simply crashes on you, when you connect or not to a device, it's better to leave a comment
  • if you have tips or workarounds to share, they'll be very welcome too

This topic is intended for version 4.20.0 and above, and for our browser version of Deezer :floppy_disk:

Hi ​@José.Deezer thanks for your response! Unfortunately the link also downloads the older version of Deezer desktop for me. I am located in Germany, not sure if it affects the version I receive (as previously I did have 7.0.1 installed). I’m currently still unable to login to either version of the desktop app.
I’m only able to use the web version.
No, the issue doesn’t occur on the web version of Deezer - where I am successfully able to use the buttons on the top of the lyrics screen.

Hi ​@José.Deezer I tried again and now the link downloads the latest version. I was able to login successfully and the top buttons on the lyrics screen also work now! So no open issue from my side, thanks!

Hello ​@adhirajdar I have asked around to understand if it is something related to that OS version.

New: Indeed we found and issue, and we fixed it immediately, so that’s why you have managed successfully to update the app, which is great.

Meanwhile, you can always try with this link - https://www.deezer.com/desktop/download/artifact-darwin-x64-7.0.50 where you just change the numbers on the end to get a specific version.

I can confirm the sync is back again.

Hi guys, I’m not happy with the solution you provided. Here’s my user case:

I work all day on Windows 11 using Deezer desktop app. When I’m done, I simply close the laptop lid, putting Windows into sleep mode, and switch to my iPhone. The sync queue works perfectly.

Later, when I reopen my laptop, all the apps (including Deezer) wake up. Unfortunately, Deezer’s queue get stuck on the track I was listening to when I closed the laptop. The Only way to refresh is completely close the Deezer app (which can't be done using the close button) and run again. Very frustrating!

In the past, the queue used to update automatically.
Let me know if you’d like any further refinements!

I'm running Deezer 7.0.50 on a Mac, it's showing a banner to apply the update. I click on the "Restart now" and nothing happens. I've restarted the application many times, the update is not applied and the banner keeps popping up.

Hey ​@jirikovoego 👋 

I asked my Superusers to perform this action but everything it’s OK on their side

Have you tried to update the desktop app to the latest version?

https://www.deezer.com/explore/en-us/download/

If so, you can also try to delete the cache on the desktop app 

I hope that helps 🙌

I’m using latest version from Windows Store. Tried even to reinstall, but no change.
