Spotify Library missing?
Anyone else experienced this? Just randomly disappeared yesterday and can’t get it back
Tried idrive reset, logging out of the app and back in again, updating apps & services, and nothing has fixed it. Other things work like recently played and search, but library list won’t come up at all! |

Happens to me all the time. Everything stops talking to each other. Do all the shit you did. Sometimes hooks up on the 5th try, sometimes not. Then, it's miraculously back.
It will also be working fine, I'll go into a store, come back out and.......nothing. Then hooks back up on the way home. I'm enjoying a spectacular 2 month window right now. Probably just jinxed meself. |

I don’t know if this could be of any help, but I recently had a problem with the red light camera app in iDrive. I tried resetting iDrive. I tried turning the car on and off the only thing that worked was un pairing my iPhone from the car, then resettingg iDrive, then repairing my phone again I don’t know if this could be of any help to you and your situation but when I had an app problem in I drive, that’s what solved it for me.

Nothing seems to work to bring it back - someone has posted on the Spotify website, and they’ve responded to say it’s a BMW issue, not theirs. I could try and call the Connected Drive team, but they’ll have less of a clue than me

Well, my 2 month music run ended today, no doubt because of all this chatter, and me crowing about a 2 month uninterrupted run. After about 5 mins of it trying to load, I switched off my phone wifi for about 30 secs then turned it back on. Sumbitch, it hooked up right away. Go figure.

Like I said in an earlier post this is absolutely correct. If you're having a problem with a Idrive app kill carplay get your app working correctly then start over with carplay

https://www.bmwusa.com/content/dam/b...ectedMusic.pdf Just found the above doc and it reminded me why I never connected to Spotify in the first place, i.e., a premium aka paid subscription is required. However, to your point based on the guide once set up the connection sounds like iD7 to Spotify vs even a Bluetooth connection from the cell to the car being required. So definitely a couple of operating models out there including what you have configured as well as others either running Spotify via CarPlay or AA. |

Spotify threads on point:
https://community.spotify.com/t5/Car...W/td-p/5534896 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Car...re/m-p/5534338 My liked songs have been greyed out. Using integrated vehicle app. Phone not involved. Last edited by BMWGirlFL; 04-11-2023 at 10:41 AM.. |

Also what puzzles me is Spotify requires a data aka Internet connection. So even if using the Connected Drive native app without a cell phone where is that coming from? Perhaps it rides on the AT&T hotspot in the vehicle even if not subscribed for a full cellular connection. Just a puzzling factor. Tempted to do a 1 month premium Spotify subscription just to test things out. |

I think Spotify sounds way better than SiriusXM. My last two F90s both had Bowers & Wilkins and my current M850 only has the lowly Harmon Kardon - but Spotify is still better sounding than Sirius. My one year free Sirius subscription is up next week and I will not be renewing. It will the first time since 2005 I have not had Sirius in the car. I just don't listen to it any more - I prefer my own Playlists for music and never listen to the news anymore either. The car is now my sanctuary. I even look forward to just driving it to the grocery store for eggs. Funny how it's 2 miles to the store and 7 miles to get back home. Dunno how that happens.

I could have lived with the music service only as Ozzy's Boneyard plus Watercolors is a staple while I'm solo in the car. I have 2TB of hard rock and jazz on the SSD but those two stations turn me on to some new music in either genre that I find valuable. |
