Now Spotify is one of the most accessible music platforms all over the world. Signing in can happen anywhere and anytime. It provides music, podcast, and video streaming services. Users can create, edit, and share playlists and tracks on social media. Besides, Spotify is available for most modern devices such as Windows, Mac OS, and Linux computers as well as iOS, Windows Phone and Android smartphones and tablets. But not everything has been smooth sailing for Spotify. Some users complain about that the Spotify Web Player is not working. What's wrong with that? How to fix it?
When I open Spotify Desktop App OR Web Browser (Firefox), NO device will be detected. So I open the Spotify app at my Android Smartphone, because there I can see ALL connected devices. So I choose my Chromecast connected to my HiFi-System. ONLY AFTER THIS I can use Chromecast or other devices via Desktop app AND Webbrowser.

Part 1. Why Spotify Web Player Doesn't Work

Part2. How to Fix Spotify Web Player Not Working
Actually, the problem that you receive a message informing you that your Spotify Web Player can't be playing might be caused by many reasons.
If your web browser can't connect to Spotify, then try the following solutions.
#1. Try to load another website.If you can't access other websites, then your own Internet connection or Internet service provider (ISP) should be the reason why Spotify Web Player doesn't work. To solve it, you need to try restarting your computer and modem or wireless router, resetting the web browser to remove bad caches and free up your connection. Then you can try to access to Spotify again, if the same problem exists, then contact your ISP and tell them the problem.
#2. If you can access other websites except for Spotify, then it might because the firewall is specifically blocking your access to Spotify. Then you need to close the firewall when you access Spotify.
#3. Flush the DNS on your computer. As computers can occasionally cache some bad data which will slow down or disrupts online activities such as connecting to Spotify. 'Flushing the DNS' can help you remove such obstructions.
If Spotify won't load in your web browser, then the below solutions might be helpful.
#1. Delete your cookies. Cookies will cause unpredictable mischief when they pile up in your browser, so clear your web browser's cookies.
#2. Try another web browser. It might because Spotify doesn't support your web browser. As for web browser, I suggest you use Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge or Apple Safari.
