Hello, I keep finding music saved to my favourites and playlists that I have not set up or even listened to and also saying someone is listening the same time as I'm using my account. I have tried resetting my password, logging in and out and still having these issues??

    Hi @drp1112 I completely understand your frustration and I will pass your feedback to our developers.
    What I can do from here which will help is to close session in any device where your account is opened. For that to work, and as painful as it sounds, I also need you to reset your password one more time clicking on the link I just sent to your email.
    You should not have problems after that.
    Regarding the linked devices, I have unlinked all devices from the account for a fresh start… Keep in mind that only mobiles devices will count as connected devices.
    Thanks :)

    Hi @Nikola Rajovic apologies for that. I have done the same maintenance than other users. I sent you a password reset link via email. Please click on that link, proceed to change your password and login again with the new password.
    Let me know if that helps :relaxed:

    Hello!

     

    Today I run into the “Why has the music stopped?” pop-up every 1-3 minutes, saying that my account is being used on another device.

    I shut off my laptop and my phone (only devices with deezer connected), unlinked my phone from the authorized devices in the settings, changed password, unlinked google login, and changed the password again.

    Additionally, I cleared both the Cache and the cookies on the browser (opera). The pop-up was still pop-upping, so I disconnected deezer from the browser and downloaded the desktop app.

    This problem is still unsolved.

     

    How shall I proceed?

    Thanks!

    Apparently everything is working fine now. Must have been a temporary glitch.

    hi @tianaiguana apologies for the delay.
    I have killed session in all devices where the account could be open and I sent you a password request link to your email. Please click on the link and enter a new password.

    If the problem persists, do not hesitate to contact me again.:nerd:

    Hi @scott5507 I have done some maintenance in your account and also sent you a password reset link via email. Please click on the link, proceed to change your password and login again.
    That should fix the problem :)
