spotify will not force quit

Spotify will not force quit on my macOS MacBook. The app stays on my dock and has a red dot under it. The app will not open. How can I remove it?

Hey there mariasauls,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We understand you’re having issues force quitting Spotify on your Mac. We’ll be happy to help with this.


When you open the Force Quit menu, does it show Not Responding next to Spotify? This link shows you how to do this: How to force an app to quit on your Mac


Also, have you tried restarting your Mac or booting into safe mode? If not, try these and see if they have any impact on this issue:


Log out, sleep, wake, restart, or shut down your Mac

Start up your Mac in safe mode


We hope this helps.


Take care.
