@Corallum Nice to see you around the Community. 👋🏽

Could you tell me a bit more about what is happening?

What exactly do you mean by shutting off?

Also, are you listening to Pandora on a computer or on a device?

  1. If you are on a computer, are you listening from:
    • A Mac or Windows computer?
    • Our website, or the desktop app? If you're listening from our website, what browser are you using?
  2. If you are on a device, what is the make and model (and carrier, if applicable)?
  3. Is there an error message? If so, what does it say?
  4. Can you provide me with a screenshot/screen-recording of what you're seeing?

Thanks for working with me on this.

Mine does the same thing!  And just in the last few months.  I pay for the subscription so I can have constant background music without having to monitor it.  If it is going to stop every couple of hours anyway, might as well use it free!

Windows desktop on Chrome from website, no error msgs, just goes silent.  Everything is updated.

@ctm153 To clarify, does the music stop when the screensaver on your desktop turns on?

Let me know.

Mine does the same thing.  Listening through Google Chrome, on my desktop.  It is not cutting off when the screensaver comes on because I do not have one set (by time) on my computer.  This morning, I was listening to the Celine Dion, These Are Special Times holiday cd.  The second song that played, when it was over, it just cut off.  It has done this several times on this cd alone.  Does it not like Celine?  LOL!  Thanks!

@Taterdog To clarify, does the music stop before the second song even finishes playing?

Or does the album just not advance to the next track after the second song plays?

Also, are you able to reproduce this in other browsers (ex: Firefox)?

Let me know.

I am listening on Chrome and it plays a few songs and then just stops. Was doing fine prior to my computer being updated last night.

@Zyndyna I moved your post over to the Desktop space.

Did you have a chance to try Mozilla Firefox? I understand switching browsers isn't an ideal solution, but this will help determine whether or not this issue is browser-specific.

In the meantime, I recommend running through the following troubleshooting steps: Chrome Troubleshooting

Mine keeps turning off in the middle of a song.  I have android galaxy 22. This has been going on for about 2 months.  Sometimes 2 or 3 songs will play, other times it's every song. And I am playing it through the app

@Texcop Could you tell me a bit more about what is happening?

When you say it turns off in the middle of a song, does the app completely close and you are sent back to the home screen?

Or is the issue that in the middle of the song, the app will pause the music, and you have to manually tap on the play button again to get the music going?

Also:

  1. Is there an error message? If so, what does it say?
  2. Can you provide me with a screenshot of what you're seeing?
