How to Fix Failed 1002?

If you are encountering with Failed 1002 code when converting songs with NoteBurner Spotify Music Converter, please try to run Spotify only and play a song, then close Spotify and launch NoteBurner.

If the problem persists, please refer to the following solutions to fix the issue.

Solution 1: Make Sure the Audio Output Device's Connection is OK

Some Windows computers must connect to an output device in order to play music on Spotify. If your computer wasn't connected to any audio output device, you can't play music on Spotify and NoteBurner won't convert the unplayable Spotify music successfully, and pops out "Failed 1002" code when converting.

tips If you're still running into the same issue, please make sure an usable audio output (such as headphone, stereos...) is connected to your computer.
