Try to restart the Fire TV streaming device. Settings﹥My Fire TV﹥Restart
Try to see if the Fire TV system software is up-to-date. Settings﹥My Fire TV﹥About﹥Check for System Update.
Try to see if apps are set to update automatically. Settings﹥Applications﹥Appstore﹥Automatic Updates﹥On
If the issue persists after that, try to delete and re-install the Apple TV app.

Unfortunately, that wasn't the problem. I had tried unplugging the FireTV and plugging it in again then following your previous instructions, but that didn't help. I've just tried again but when I click on the AppleTV icon I just get a blank (black) screen.

There was a recent outage on Apple’s side. It should be solved now. Please try again.

System Status - Apple Support

Else contact Apple Support.

Your instructions were perfect: I followed them and was able to watch my program for 2 days. Now I have the same problem and your recommended procedure hasn't solved it.

Then please contact Apple Support for further assistance. They can check things that we do not have access to.
