MAC KEYS NOT WORKING WITH SPOTIFY



 1. Mac Media Keys Not Working Spotify

You might have noticed that some apps open and run automatically whenever you
start your Windows PC or Mac. The behavior makes sense for apps from cloud
storage services like OneDrive and Google Drive — you might want to keep all the
files in sync with other platforms. However, other apps like Chrome, Spotify,
Edge browser, etc., enable the 'Login/launch at startup' option by default, and
mostly end up consuming resources at startup. Thankfully, there's a way to stop
Spotify from opening at startup in macOS and Windows.

Spotify has stopped working properly, according to users. A strange bug appears
to make the iPhone version of the app crash as soon as it is opened. Spotify
does not appear to have pushed out a. Spotify Click the install file to finish
up. If your download didn't start, try again. Bring your music to mobile and
tablet, too. Listening on your phone or tablet.

If you love music, then you probably won't mind it. However, it's odd that
Spotify would want launch immediately after the OS boots — it's not a critical
system app after all. The practice of forcing people to let an app launch at
startup doesn’t make sense. Also, that behavior is active by default whenever
you install the Spotify app.

In this post, we will guide you through several ways to disable Spotify's
automatic startup on Windows and Mac. Let’s first talk about the common method
that works on both Windows and macOS.



1. USE STARTUP AND WINDOWS BEHAVIOR OPTION (WINDOWS AND MAC)

Spotify offers the ability to change the 'launch at startup' function from the
app settings. The app is almost identical on both Windows and Mac. You can
follow the steps below to access the option and change it.

Step 1: Open the Spotify app on Mac or Windows.

Step 2: You can select the drop-down beside the profile icon and go to Settings.
Alternatively, you can also use Command +, keyboard shortcut on Mac to open
Spotify Settings.

Step 3: Scroll down to the bottom and select Show Advanced Settings.

Step 4: The option will open several other Spotify options.

Step 5: Navigate to the 'Startup and Window Behavior' heading. You will find the
‘Open Spotify automatically after you log into the computer’ option. Click on
the drop-down and change the behavior to No.

After that, Spotify won't load by itself whenever you start your computer.
Spotify's Windows app also offers an option to minimize or close the app when
you hit the close button. You can change that too if you like.

If Spotify still opens at startup on Mac, then check the next solution.

using a mouse).

menu to hide it. To remove it, select the ‘-‘ button at the bottom.

that run during the Windows startup.

you can right-click on the Windows button and select Task Manager from the menu
that opens up.

History, Startup, Users, Details, and Services.
