Common Pandora Error Messages
Like most apps and online services, Pandora often sends error messages to alert you that something is wrong. If you receive an error message, there’s no need to decipher the problem further. Most error messages tell exactly what’s going on. Some of the most common Pandora error messages include:
Someone else is listening to your Pandora account.An error has occurred with Pandora [try again].
The first error is straightforward, telling you exactly what’s wrong with your Pandora service. The second error signals an internal problem for the Pandora service, leaving you with nothing to do but watch and wait for the service to return to normal. If you receive an unclear error message, the chances are good that it’s internal.
