Hi @MusicFan0314! Thanks for posting to community.


Please use the following steps to activate your in-home device:

  • Launch the Pandora application.
  • Select New User.
  • An activation page will appear with a code - leave this code up on the device screen as you continue.

From the web, visit www.pandora.com/[brand of device] and enter the activation code there (e.g. www.pandora.com/pioneer).

Or, from a mobile device, open the Pandora app and go to Settings, then tap Device Activation and enter the code.

Let me know if you continue to have trouble.

I’ve had a Pandora account but, not on my Sony tv. I open the app and Pandora doesn’t recognize my account. How do I link my account to the tv?
