Spotify apps / home directory location (Windows lo

问题:

My development account for Spotify has been enabled and I am trying to walk through their simple tutorial app (http://developer.spotify.com/download/spotify-apps-api/tutorial/). I should note here that I am on a Win 7 workstation.

When I try to load the local app by typing 'spotify:app:Tutorial' in the search field I get the following msg/error: "Sorry, I could find this app. metadatafailed URI: spotify:app:Tutorial Error: appNotFound."

I have tried adding the app files to the following directories and still getting the error:

• C:\Users\Me\Documents\Spotify\Tutorial (note this dir did not exist I created it)
• C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\Spotify
• C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\Spotify\Users\me-user
• C:\Users\Me\AppData\Roaming\Spotify
• C:\Users\Me\AppData\Roaming\Spotify\Users\me-user

So where exactly are you suppose to add the files so that Spotify will load local apps?

Thanks!

Your first guess is correct (C:\Users\Me\Documents\Spotify\Tutorial). However you need to be running the latest preview release (https://www.spotify.com/uk/download/previews/). And on my PC I had to completely un-install and reinstall the application before the developer options became enabled.

Not sure whether it helps in your case, but try naming the folder tutorial with lowercase t. See Spotify Tutorial example app is blank

I can't leave a comment, but I was having the same issues and had to do a combination of what Niklas and akakjs did. I had to completely uninstall the spotify app, download/install the preview version, create a Spotify directory in My Documents, then create the folder Tutorial. Then, in the Spotify search bar I had to type "spotify:app:tutorial" with the lowercase t. I hope this helps!

Had the exact same problem. I had to run Spotify as administrator, worked right away.

And the path i used were: C:\Users\me\Documents\Spotify

I had the same problem: Spotify could not find my app directory even though the proper folder had been created in my Documents folder.

I Fixed it by running Spotify as an Administrator.
