@iowaaa Pandora should run in the background when you are streaming from your computer.

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

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

Thanks for working with me on this. ๐Ÿค

Using on the Dell PC with Chrome.  No message, just stops when my computer lock screen locks out.

@equintero To clarify, are you only experiencing this issue with Pandora?

Have you tried streaming other websites such as YouTube?

If not, please try listening to YouTube, and let me know if you experience similar issues there as well.

Thanks for your patience.

Hi @SCHULTZ59 , thanks for posting, can you tell me more about the way you are listening to Pandora please?

  1. Are you listening from our website, or the desktop app? If you're listening from our website, what browser are you using?
  2. Is there an error message or does it just stops? If there's a message, what does it say?
  3. If possible, can you provide me with a screenshot of what you're seeing so I can take a look?

Turning off the sleep setting was a good solution for me. Thanks
