1-1 of 1 Answer
Hello Janice! If your Echo Show 3rd Gen stops playing music intermittently, a few potential reasons could be causing this: - Wi-Fi Connectivity Issues: Echo devices rely on a strong, stable Wi-Fi connection to stream music. If the connection drops or fluctuates, it can cause interruptions. • Fix: Restart your router or ensure your Echo Show is connected to a stable network. You might also move it closer to the router. - Streaming Service Issues: If you are using a music streaming service (like Amazon Music, Spotify, etc.), there could be service outages or account issues. • Fix: Check if the streaming service is down or if your subscription/account is active. - Device Software Update: Sometimes, outdated firmware or software bugs can cause performance issues. • Fix: Check for and install the latest software updates for your Echo Show. - Multiple Device Interference: If you have multiple Alexa-enabled devices nearby, commands can be confused, and music may stop unexpectedly. • Fix: Ensure the Echo Show is the only device responding to your voice command, or name the devices differently. - Power or Resource Overload: Running multiple tasks or having a lot of background processes (like video feeds or other apps) could cause music to stop unexpectedly. • Fix: Restart the Echo Show to clear any temporary issues or memory overload. - Bluetooth or External Device Issues: If your Echo Show is connected to an external Bluetooth speaker, issues with the speaker could cause playback interruptions. • Fix: Try disconnecting and reconnecting the speaker, or play the music directly through the Echo Show's speakers. If none of these seem to resolve the issue, performing a factory reset could help identify or fix any deeper hardware or software problems. Have a great day!
