@KDG150, to go along w/ MariaPandora's advice:   If you're using a "Windows machine," & don't want to use the software that Micropoosoft wants to shove down our throats, pressing ctrl+alt+prtscrn(printscreen button) will also 'screenshot' the active window(instead of the entire screen's contents), which can then be pasted into any image editor compatible with Windows' clipboard's copy/paste feature for further edits, or directly into these reply windows(see many of my posts reporting incorrect lyrics or explicit content that's incorrectly played when it should be filtered).  Hope this helps! 😁 ...

  Also @Tasha787, I think it's important to understand that adding a piece of music(vs an artist) to a channel as a seed means that Pandora, until they change something, will NEVER play that piece on the channel it's added to.  It's one of the many ways Pandora is broken & refuses to be fixed.   I ran into this again recently with a channel I just created a few days ago.  I started the channel from the song "Centipede" by 'Knife Party' on my phone(the Pandora mobile "App") & it started playing that exact song.  This was pleasantly unexpected, but within 15 seconds, as I was editing the name of the channel & adding artists thereto, it suddenly stopped playback & loaded another song.  That's how 'anti-play-seeded-songs' Pandora is.  ..couldn't even let it play through once since it was a seed.  Not only that, but then the app consistently failed to actually remove the song from the channel so it would eventually play 'normally'!  I must've told it to remove it from the seeds part of the channel, including hitting the save button(which tells you it's successfully saved!), at least 7-8 times before I finally got to my computer to try it on the F.F. browser I use.  That SEEMS to've worked thus far, but it's just another example of things to expect from a platform that's no longer truly supported on the backend. ...kinda like these threads getting marked solved just because mods respond to them.  I've almost always had to tell the thread that said response it not the solution, particularly when there IS no solution.  It's especially egregious when someone tells you that you can do a thing that you've already outlined in your original thread as an unwanted requirement or is out of the question for wtvr reason.  Makes one feel like they didn't even bother reading what you'd written.  I dunno if you knew you could do that, but yes, you can click the 3 dots on their response, when it offers nothing to actually solve the issue/answer the question, & select "Not the Solution."  Hope this helps! ...

...I deleted the playlist, which said it was by me(so must've been REALLY old as I've no memory of creating a playlist), & it took a little while of navigating around Pandora for it to finally no longer show up on the above screenshot'd channel, BUT that seems to be the only remedy.   I decided to submit this post despite having solved the problem(sort of) since, again, I found nothing about this issue anywhere else on the forum & I'm sure that folks will run into this at 1 point or another in the future.(so for informational purposes)  Mods, do with it what you will.   Assuming I wanted to preserve the playlist, does ANYone have any idea how we'd resolve the issue of being unable to UN-link it from the channel? ...

@TannerPandoraThx bro!  I look forward to seeing any & all progress made. 😁 ... View more

@AdamPandora  I appreciate your partial response. As for clarity: What helps😊:   "archived content cannot be viewed again" What we already knew😐:   "...lyrics that are incorrect ... you can post them on this thread."   "all users have the ability to mark a post a solution." What's yet to be addressed⏱:   The point of archiving & essentially restarting a developed thread " do the Mods mark their answers as Solution..." or "...does it"(their responses being thus marked) "happen automatically"(like by default)? "are there actually users"(non-moderators) "voting this way for things that are just instructions on how to submit feedback"? (the only problem that such instructions actually solve is the problem of "How do I submit feedback?"  Since the thread was never about that, such posts are not the solution.)   I hope this response/format doesn't come across as belligerent, but I wanted to call to light this issue that seems to be contributing to the forum dying: SO much of what is asked gets 'skirted around', if not left completely unanswered.  This practice(which has plagued my experience here from the start since I rejoined within these last several years), combined with policies that severely limit user interaction with the forum here, have an extremely negative effect on user moral/motivation to be active in this community.  I'd love to see it addressed & better communication striven for instead of hampered.  This is part of my effort toward that end.  If it is unacceptable, well, I think that'd be very sad indeed, but I don't know how else we can solve such issues than to do our part to bring it to light & talk about it.  It is a forum after all. Even so much as, "I cannot currently discus that issue openly" is better than completely ignoring the inquiry, ya know? ... View more

Seemingly Random 24hr "Complimentary" Plus Subscription...??? Well, this is very interesting.  This evening(2025-2-05), upon checking my email, I saw one from pandora@pandora.com with the subject line "Welcome to Pandora Plus" received just before 1500hrs Pacific Time t'day.  My 1st thought was, "WTFrick? I didn't subscribe to Plus!  Has my account been compromised?!" & so I did some digging.  I found a notification was waiting for me advising that I'd earned the Plus Subscriber Badge at 11:43am, & when I go to my Pandora Settings & look under the Subscriptions section, it says, "Your complimentary subscription of Pandora Plus ends on 2/6/2025." ...  So, it's complimentary.  ...for 24hrs or less? LOL!  Anybody else get this? @mods, what happened here?  Glitch? Clerical error? The email mentions nothing about it being a complimentary subscription & if I'm not the only 1 getting this unsolicited gift, I know I'm also not the only one confused & concerned about my account.  It seems there's certainly room for improvement in communication as far as such goes.  ...

@AdamPandora, occasionally, yes.  I use updated Firefox for Pandora playback. Checked just now & yes, it's still happening with some songs(not all) See lyrics^  but then they're undefined... ...Then the very next song shows things properly:   ... View more

So, I came back to submit more to the thread containing tons of incorrect lyrics issues a couple days ago, but found it now tells me "The content you're looking for has been archived..." & I wonder, "Where can I, if even possible, view archived content?"  followed by, "If I can't, what's the point of telling me it's been archived?  Is this just Pandora's way of sweeping this glaring issue that's seemingly been untouched under the rug & making it look new or less prevalent than it actually is??" Also, do the Mods mark their answers as Solution, does it happen automatically, or are there actually users voting this way for things that are just instructions on how to submit feedback vs actual solutions?  I notice this all the time & it seems like the default.🤔 ...

Something I don't yet understand about this forum is how "solutions" are chosen.  I would think that it would be up to the OP of a thread, or perhaps voting by the members, but it seems that a majority of the time the moderator replies are automatically designated as solution.😕  Thankfully, there is(or at least has been) an option to remove that designation when appropriate, but I can't see how to pick one that's clearly the solution & set it as such.  Here's a screenshot of what I would select as solution to the issue in this thread's original post... if it would let me: ...but, as you(hopefully) can see, there's no option for that in the drop-down menu.  I supposed it's possible, though I don't remember, that I already told the system that the reply was NOT the solution(which I would have done at the time I first read it due to the fact it was already designated as solution before I had a chance to implement the advised changes!), but I feel it would be pretty stupid if that made it so that that reply could NEVER be re-designated as solution.  That would be like saying people don't change their minds, which we all can agree would be pure lunacy.   @TannerPandora  or others, do tell? ...

@coachart  -chuckles- My first experience here on the forum taught me that they really seem to prioritize their "guidelines" over just about anything else, often completely ignoring inquires within posts that somehow violate them. It is kinda mind blowing, but yea, seems the higher-ups have the company(s) moving in other directions. 😒 I guess what I'm saying is: 'Agreed' & 'Don't hold your breath.' ... View more

I remember when this actually WAS a thing you could do on Pandora(the closest thing you can do now is remember the name/artist of the song you like, navigate to the channel you want it on, add it as a seed, then thumb it down on the channel it's playing on 'incorrectly'). I don't understand their reasoning for a lot of things, especially the removal of useful features like that. You used to be able to tell it to move it to another station & I think it would put it under that stations thumbed-up songs. It's been like a decade though, so memory's a bit old. 😒 Pandora! PLEASE bring this feature back! ... View more

I agree^.  This, on top of not measuring up to the  expectations set when advertising "zero interruptions," is ANOTHER reason I refuse to pay for Pandora's paid teirs: the best audio quality it offers is less than 256kbps! I LOVE the concept of Pandora's project, but the longer it goes without the love its developers/managers should be putting into it, the more it comes across like a cheap mobile phone game app that turns out to be just a guise hiding an ad distribution platform = unloved cash cow.😒 @Pandora, PLEASE give us this incentive to use you vs the others! You GOTTA stay competitive, or you'll lose users = your support base! That would be epic-ly sad.🥺 ... View more
