Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Hello,
I am a bit confused with trying to watch Disney + on an old Apple tv. It makes no sense since my apple tv can support the new Apple TV subscription but not the Disney+. My old Apple TV was working just fine until this and it's pretty unfair. This is so disappointing.

It looks like Disney+ won't be accessible from a 3rd gen Apple TV for the foreseeable future, but you can still AirPlay Disney+ content to your Apple TV. For further instructions: AirPlay video from iOS
Hope this helps,

Then why are they making it available for download on new apple tv devices but not pushing out to older ones? Yet they pushed out apple tv app to the older ones...
Agree would like to see a Disney+ app on my gen 3 apple tv
Me too 😡!
Can you get airplay to work with Disney+ on the older Apple TV models?

Disney and Apple must take care of the little guy; please put the Disney plus app on the older Apple TV.
It's up to Disney. You should contact them and let them know how you feel.
Im with you just send through an update. Not very environmentally conscious forcing to people to buy a new one
Anyone been able to successfully use airplay to stream Disney+ to their old Apple TV? Still can’t get it working. Even tried to download the shows and stream them but it didn’t work.
Works fine when I'm on Chrome instead of Safari. No idea why!
I have managed to airplay and stream Disney+ using the Disneyplus app on the iphone to my old Apple2 TV.
Are you using a VPN?
No. But I have to make sure the device I am mirroring/airplaying is on the same wireless network as my appleTV
You are lucky! Doesn’t work for me. Doubled checked I’m on the same WiFi. Works perfectly fine with amazon prime.

I have an ATV 2 gen. Is that the problem?
Yes. You'll need to either buy a newer ATV or something like a FireTV stick or Roku.
If your episodes are downloaded, mirroring seems to not work. first delete download and then the streaming content will play.
