I bought AMC+ through Apple. I can watch on my smart TV, iphone, and iPad, but not my laptop.

How can I stream AMC+ channel on my laptop? I have tried through the Apple TV website and it did not show me any options for channels. I got the same result with the Apple TV app for my laptop. It does not give me any option to select a channel. How can I watch AMC+, which I bought through Apple on my laptop?


Windows, Windows 11 (22631)

  • Subscriptions started in the content provider’s app on an Apple device, are valid for your Apple devices in the content provider’s app.
  • Subscriptions started in the Apple TV app, as in-app Channel, are valid for the Apple TV app on any of your devices, on any platform. The Apple TV app is available for Windows, if you would like that.
  • Subscriptions started with the content provider directly, can be accessed on any device or platform, in the content provider’s app; not as Apple TV app in-app channel.

These types of subscriptions have different terms and conditions, different perks and limitations, and are not exchangeable as such.


If you like one of the other options better, then you may need to cancel and then resubscribe the other way.

This is not really true.


I subscribe to Hulu+, Disney+, Paramount+ and HBO Max via Apple. I can see the subscriptions right from the "Subscriptions" area of the TV app.


However, I cannot watch anything EXCEPT for Paramount+ on my TV app for Mac.


I can do so on my iPhone 15....On my MacBook Pro, and on my Apple TV. But not on my MacBook Pro using the TV app

This is false. I have the apple TV app for Windows and I cannot watch AMC+ through it. Again, I purchased AMC+ subscription through Apple TV+.


Maybe you didn't read my post, but just posted a generic response.

Apparently whoever is responding isn’t paying attention.


I have subscribed to those channels using ITunes. I can watch ALL OF THEM on my iPhone, Apple TV and iPad using the TV app for those.


I cannot watch them on my MacBook Pro using the TV app.


So, anyone else have the correct answer or know what the solution is? Maybe it’s a setting that needs to be changed on the MacBook?
