I had the same problem as you, and while searching the web, I found a solution. Press ctrl+shift+delete (or Clear My Tracks), it's the same, and check Cache + Cookies. Then, it works miraculously!
loli
magnificent, it works for me who had the same problem, thanks supertoto!

Thank you very much for your solution, it works very well! I had this problem too.

For those who have installed ad-block, you need to disable it on the Deezer site and it works again for me.

YES !! Thank you, it hadn't worked for a year...

Adblock does not block Deezer music! It only blocks audio ads...
Elfin
Adblock back then (2010!) didn't allow me to play music on Deezer. That has probably changed since, but I must admit I've given up on Deezer. Some websites detect ad blockers and do not allow access to content. I suppose it's a script along those lines that was in place.

Adblock has nothing to do with it since it works very well for me.
Elfin
that's a demonstration ^^

Hello everyone,
I've just found out the explanation, and I have some bad news to share: this feature has been removed by the Deezer team and will not return.
I read it on the Deezer forum (I hadn’t noticed that there was one on the site), and there’s a whole topic about it. After reading the 7 pages, it’s clear that Deezer has no intention of going back to the old system for now.
They recommend making playlists, but what stands out from users' feedback is that this solution does not replace the ability to play a search, which allows discovering other versions than the album versions, such as covers or live performances. Indeed, when we create playlists, we generally look for stuff we know, which greatly limits the possibility of enriching our musical culture. Moreover, adding songs one by one to the playlist is particularly tedious, not to mention that creating a playlist for each search will lead to having 50,000 of them by the end of the year: it’s hard to keep track.
Deezer is working on implementing a checkbox system to add multiple songs to the playlist at once; however, this is not ready for deployment yet, so we’ll need to be patient until then.
Additionally, it’s worth knowing that this feature has also been removed for members. So there’s no point in signing up for this, you won’t have continuous play any more than you do now.
Forum users, all members, have suggested to the team to bring this feature back exclusively for members, which would encourage people to sign up without disadvantaging those who are already members. This proposal, undoubtedly the most logical and simplest way to bring smiles back to everyone while allowing Deezer to increase its user base, does not seem to have been accepted by the designers. For now, there is no question of seeing this function return, either for members or for the rest of the common people.
Users have also shared how they are coping, each in their own way, with the problem:
- listening to other people's playlists to continue discovering
- listening to web radio (Even if unfortunately, it doesn’t necessarily match... For example, I searched for the group Imogen Heap: it included Bob Marley and Philippe Katerine... It’s not that I don’t like them, but I don’t see much of a link between the musical styles... The web radio is supposed to play all the tracks corresponding to the searched artist, plus similar artists... "Similar"? Imogen Heap and Bob Marley?... Anyway, let’s move on...)
- others finally said they went to look elsewhere: on Jiwa or Jamendo, for example. The choice is more limited, but from what I understand, you can listen to "repeat" all the tracks of an artist (I haven’t had the time to test it yet, I read the forum in the morning, and I’m at work... Sorry!)
Overall, everyone contested this decision, especially that it was not announced in advance, creating confusion and pushing many users to look for a "bug" (like all of us here...) when there wasn’t one. The lack of communication from Deezer has been widely criticized... The team defends itself by saying that there’s a blog explaining the decisions made... But in any case, no clear explanation has been provided because "due to competition, the reasons behind this choice cannot be disclosed on the forum" (according to Deezer... well, in essence, it’s not word for word). In short, we won’t know.
The topic has been closed by the team, so you will no longer be able to give your opinion.
For now, we must take our pain with patience; I personally think they will revisit this decision in a few months, at least for members, as the removal of this feature will, in my opinion, greatly penalize the site and significantly reduce its traffic. Time will tell... So let’s wait a few weeks and see...
Finally, the story of the pop-up every three minutes to sign up was also mentioned... But that’s another story.
So, I’ll end this very long post, and I wanted to give you a summary of the 7 pages of discussions, to save you from having to sift through them. That said, it’s worth checking out; there are some great exchanges... And Deezer administrators who don’t always show the necessary tact, sometimes downright condescending even (it depends on the admin, there are some quite nice ones)...
It’s very regrettable for Deezer’s image. The myth is cracking, breaking, and is on the verge of collapsing...
PS: if you find that other forums have raised the same question as us, feel free to copy this long summary and post it. The more people who are aware and realize that the site will no longer be what it was, the more likely Deezer will recognize its mistake and get back on track before it’s too late and we’ve all migrated to the competition. Thank you all for taking the time to read all this...

Great presentation. Congratulations and in good French please. Thank you for these answers, I who am a big fan of Deezer. I believe that for my part, it's a way to prepare ourselves to PAY to frequent the site. A word to the wise, goodbye.

@soso^^ Thank you... Some people are grateful! It took me a good hour to do this! It's nice to see that there are those who appreciate it! Bye!
foxart
Thank you very much for taking the time to explain to us.
polum
such a clear explanation, I tip my hat
blukorto
Thank you for this post...........

this time it's good I really found the solution to get Deezer working again on Firefox and it's really easy...^^
First, you need to go to TOOLS, then OPTIONS, then PRIVACY, then SHOW COOKIES, and simply click on CLEAR ALL COOKIES ... And there you go, that's it^^ I hope it will work a++

Oh, and sorry for the mistakes, I just reread it, there are quite a few, it's usually not my style, but at work we have old Apple keyboards, I'm not used to it so there are typos, and I only slept for 4 hours last night, so how can I say... My brain decided to go on strike with the conjugations... ^^, Good luck to everyone in finding other sites equivalent to Deezer...
meudge
Thank you, it's clear, precise, and well-written. Good luck to everyone.

Hi!
I also have a problem with Deezer, but it's a little different.
For the past 4 days, I haven't been able to play several songs in a row. For example, before I would search for an artist, and all their songs would show up (normal), I would start the first one, and the others would follow. Since Tuesday, I think, suddenly, it only wants to play one song at a time. Moreover, in the player, it doesn't show the previous song or the next one anymore. Instead of having the currently playing title displayed prominently, with the two before and after it shown smaller, I have the same thing five times. There's no problem starting the playback or anything, but it's annoying to have to click "play" every 3 minutes.
Has anyone else encountered this problem (I've looked on other forums but didn't find anything)? And resolved it? I'm using FireFox, but I haven't updated recently, or at least I don't think so. I don't understand why it was working at the beginning of the week and not now!
Thanks for your help!

Hi everyone! Personally, I have exactly the same issue and can't find a solution. However, for those who enjoy working with music, there are 2 solutions:
- Either create your own playlist and let it play - Or go into the artist's album and let it play (as long as you like the whole album^^)
In conclusion, I think this problem comes from the site itself, Deezer, and I can only hope it will be back in working order like it has happened before. Enjoy;)

Hello everyone,
I noticed all the issues you mentioned in this topic and after reading everything, I had given up on trying to make Deezer work.
However, I noticed something curious yesterday. First, I tested Deezer at home, not surprisingly, and then I tried it at my school where the network is secured by a proxy (password, etc...) and Deezer worked perfectly! Same with VPN! At that moment, I thought they had "fixed the site" but when I got home nothing worked! Unless they reactivated the site for a few hours (I don't really believe that), I don't think the problem is due to Firefox or even IE. I even wondered if it was my ISP, and after testing with different ISPs, the observation was the same. You have to admit, it's quite curious.
If you manage to find an explanation for this phenomenon, I would appreciate it if you shared it because, honestly, I can't find any at the moment.
Thanks everyone!

I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Flash Player and all the titles have turned gray again, and I can read them all!!!
oulashe
Here is the solution for me on 10/11/2009
In Firefox, click on "Tools", "Adblockplus" and there you need to uncheck the box http://files.deezer.com/swf/*
I can't believe how long it took me to find this ... I have never seen the answer on Google yet ...
So I hope this helps you out, I thought it was a shame to be forced to use I.E for Deezer ...

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Art-mando
In summary, we either have to update the Flash Player or disable Deezer in Ad-Block, and in rarer cases, delete the cookies!!!! Thank you ;)

You have installed IE Tab, but do you put the page in Internet Explorer mode (to the right of the URL bar before launching)?
Kaloo
Yes, and yet the problem is still the same, but in the IE Tab options I do have https://www.deezer.com/en/ in the list of sites to open with IE. However, MSN Messenger (which is not in the list of sites to open in IE Tab) now opens with IE... I don't quite understand everything. And otherwise, the ads are still there, is there anything to be done..?
cloox
Thank you so much to supertoto! I didn't know how to do it! And without music, it's a struggle! :)
mikedimango
I encountered the same problem with Mozilla. The simplest solution, I think, and what I did, works perfectly: open Deezer with Internet Explorer, and there you go, it works very well for the moment at least. Have a nice day everyone!
Jeronino
No, the cache + cookie combination doesn't work! It's weird, I have 2 computers and it doesn't work on either of them.
I'm going to try to see what they have in common that could be causing this block.
free-cat-in-jail
Just to say that I've tried Jamendo and Jiwa, I prefer Jiwa. It's simpler. No autoplay by default, but you can add songs to the player, and it's very easy and quick to do (little "+" next to the song you want to add to the playlist). Best wishes to everyone.
blabla
I don't know if you've noticed the little checkboxes at the end of each title, but what could they possibly be for?? I wonder... ^^
Wekk
It serves to add a piece to your playlist.
Merrrrci !
Fabulous!!!

Hello, I've been having a problem with Deezer and Firefox for a few weeks. I can still access Deezer, but as soon as I log into my account and try to access my playlist, Firefox stops working and Windows closes the program. However, there are no issues with Internet Explorer. I installed IE Tab for Firefox but nothing changed. Is there anything else I can do? Additionally, a few days after the issues with Deezer started, many ad pages started appearing without me asking for them (and they are always related to the sites I visit).. yet I have Avast running properly, could I have accidentally changed a setting? Please help me :)
Alexandre
Hello, try another browser or reinstall Adobe Flash. Alternatively, you can go to muzikoo if you want to listen to music and music clips and create playlists very easily and for free: using drag and drop or with the add to playlist button. The music is free, of course, and there's no need to sign up. Another good point is the very rich catalog and no audio ads! I'm sharing the address of this latest find http://www.muzikoo.com http://www.muzikoo.fr Make good use of it and keep it to yourself!

I can access Deezer via Internet Explorer, but it doesn't work with Firefox! Why?
