Unable to play full album while on Premium Access

Random songs drop while listening to an album, happens after every 4th or 5th song. Extremely aggravating! Have autoplay turned off.

@Gizmo1995 It looks like your account is currently set up with the free service.

The ability to listen to a full length album is only an option when upgrading to Pandora Premium.

It looks like you enabled a complimentary session of Pandora Premium, which allows you to interact with an ad in order to listen to content on-demand.

Because these sessions are funded by advertisements, your account reverted back to your regular service automatically at the end of the session.

This would explain why you weren't able to make it through the full album - your account reverted back to the free service when the session was over.

Hope this helps explain!

how do get an album to play

I am trying to listen to an album. Yet when one song stops playing instead of going to the next song on the album it skips to another artist or stops all together. I do not have "shuffle" selected. How do I just play an album?

My Collection - Albums

valz11 — Wed, 06 Apr 2022 20:39:16 GMT

I am trying out the 30-day Free Trial Upgrade. When I play an Album, after the fifth song it kicks me off and starts playing a radio station. Why does it do this, and does it continue to do this if you have a paid subscription?

Listening to album

JulieFH — Mon, 23 May 2022 15:25:19 GMT

Why does my Pandora revert to a song on one of my stations in the midst of playing an album when there are three more songs left on the album?

can't play a complete album with Pandora Plus

coneflower — Sat, 30 Jul 2022 22:50:16 GMT

why can't I choose and play a complete album with Pandora Plus? If it's because I have to download the album, why, and how do I do that?

Thank you, Adam Pandora. I 'm completely baffled by Pandora since I paid more than $50 for Pandora Plus recently. I'm now able to do less than I could with the free version that I had for years. You said that I've reverted back to the free version, but I've paid for Plus. Can you resolve this problem? And clarify what it is I am able to do with Pandora Plus besides just not listen to ads? With the free version I used to be able to enter the name of an artist and create a station with some of the artist's music plus similar music. Now I can't even do that.

Thanks for your help,

Carol

My apologies, @coneflower.

I've corrected my error - your account reverted back to your regular service (Pandora Plus - not the free version).

Also, you can still create stations with Pandora Plus based off of a specific artist - however, you won't be able to play specific songs or albums by that artist on demand.

Check out this thread for instructions on how to create a station: How to create a station

Hope this helps!
