Apple TV always requires authentication I'm using the Apple TV+ app on my Samsung TV. Before I can access shows, the app requires sign-in and authentication every time. Is there a way to resolve this? Thanks

Accessing the AppleTV app on a Roku TV I need help getting past the log in hurdle on a Roku TV for the AppleTV app. I'm in a loop....it keeps bringing me back to the log in process. I've tried unplugging the TV, removing and adding back the app, but no luck. Everytime I enter the authorization code, it takes back to the start of the process. I can play AppleTV on my computer, but not this Roku TV, which I have been watching the app on until just recently. I don't know if it's related to the 3 month free trial issue or not. If it was, I wouldn't think it would let me watch it on the computer, but not the TV.

TCM app stops recognizing TV Provider The TCM app on my Apple TV stops recognizing my TV Provider (Spectrum). I use this app every day; today it tells me I am "Not Authenticated" when I try to watch a movie, even though my TV Provider's logo is displayed within the TCM app in the upper left corner of the screen and I have verified that I'm logged in to Spectrum and can watch content in that app. In the Apple TV Settings for the TCM app I have selected ALWAYS allow TCM to access my TV Provider.

Update your Apple TV system software to the current version, if not done already. How to update your Apple TV - Apple Support

Try this for any misbehaving app:

Force-quit the app, then relaunch and try again.
If the issue persists, force-quit the app, restart the device, then relaunch and try again.
If the issue still persists, delete the app, re-download and try again.
If the issue still persists, then contact the app developer for further assistance.
