Spotify error code

AUTH-ERROR

Spotify could not verify your login on this device.

Spotify could not verify your login on this device. If the same details work on a phone, the password is fine and the fault is the saved session on this device. A wrong system clock is a common and non-obvious second cause, because the authentication handshake rejects timestamps that are too far out.
