How do I login to the Desktop App?

Do I need to keep my computer and Desktop App running all the time?
No. Once the downloads are initiated, they will start automatically when the Desktop App is launched with an internet connection.
Am I required to use the Desktop App to use the DJcity record pool?
No. The Desktop App enhances the record pool experience, but is not required.
Can I run more than one Desktop App at once?
No. This is not recommended and can lead to unpredictable results.
Can I still download songs the old fashioned way?
Yes. Individual tracks can be downloaded one at a time without the Desktop App. The Desktop App additionally enables remote batch downloads.
Is the Desktop App compatible with my computer?
PLEASE NOTE: WINDOWS 11 IS NOT CURRENTLY SUPPORTED. The Desktop App is a lightweight application that has been tested and verified to work on operating systems as far back as macOS Yosemite (2014) and Windows 7 (2009). Compatibility with earlier operating systems is possible but has not been verified. We also recommend adding the DJcity Desktop App to your whitelist/exception list if you are running anti-virus software to ensure there are no issues with launching the application and downloading files.
Why are my downloads not automatically starting?
Check your internet connection and verify that you are logged in to the Desktop App.
Why does nothing happen on my computer when I launch the Desktop App?
After you launch the Desktop App, a new DJcity icon will appear in your menu bar (macOS) or taskbar (Windows). Click on that icon to access the Desktop App. In Windows, we recommend that your system settings are set to always show the Desktop App icon to ensure it is not inadvertently hidden.
Why doesn't the Desktop App work on my computer?
Ensure you are running the latest version which can be downloaded at djcity.com/apps.
Why aren't my songs automatically downloading after clicking on the button to send all downloads to the Desktop App?
Try clicking on "Manually Refresh Queue" in the Desktop App settings menu. WARNING: unpredictable behavior may occur when more than 250 songs are added to the Crate at one time, or when more than 500 songs are in the Desktop App download queue at one time - it is highly recommended that users comply with these limits to ensure a smooth Desktop App experience.
Why is my button to send all downloads to the Desktop App greyed out in my Crate on the djcity.com website and in the DJcity Mobile App?
Ensure you are logged in to the Desktop App using your DJcity credentials. Also try logging out and logging back in again on the djcity.com website and Mobile App.
