I've scoured the internet, but I guess only a few are having this problem.
Anyhow, I've deleted and reinstalled the app, restarted the iPad... nothing seems to work.
The app opens, but just shows the netflix logo against the red background with the loading animation, and that's it.
Everything else is running like clockwork.
Thanks in advance for your reply, should you have any advice!
iPad 2, iOS 7
you may just need to wait for netflix to update their app.
I figured it out my own self... plugged the iPad into iTunes, restored it to factory settings, then reinstalled Netflix. I did not have a great deal stored on my iPad, so I'm just going to manually sync stuff back on there rather than restore from a backup.
Booyah!
Netflix will not run iOS 7 with cookies disabled. Ios6 would. Re-enable cookies and away you go.
Jbrue's suggestion worked for me! I hadn't been able to find help anywhere else for the Netflix/iPad 2/iOS 7 issue. Thank you!!!
Definitely the solution to the problem for both the iphone and the ipad. Go to SETTINGS > SAFARI > PRIVACY & SECURITY. SAFARI privacy settings must have BLOCK COOKIES set to "from third parties and advertisers." DO NOT set BLOCK COOKIES to "Always." It's OK to have the DO NOT TRACK button toggled to green or on.
Solved the problem for me too.
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!! someone should tell apple support or netflix
Fixed the problem...Thanks!
THANK YOU! Changing the cookie setting solved the problem with Netflix & the Microsoft OWA E-mail App on my ipad 3. Super frustrating this last week since upgrading.
Thank you jbrue. This worked for me as well.
My settings were already as such. This solution did not work for me. Any other suggestions?? It was working after the update...then all of a sudden stopped streaming for no apparent reason.
Hello
As simple as it sounds ... All you need to do is go to settings, then iTunes & Apple store, sign in with your ID and password.... Then go back to apple store ICON and install Netflix... You won't need to re-enter your ID as in IOS6...As per my username I am just a curious girl..not an expert... But after fussing with this for a while I realized IOS7 requires password at screen opening (kinda forces you to) because sign in is automatic in everything afterwards!!!!...
Good luck
So far a complete removal and reinstall worked. But if this happens again...I will try the login suggestion. Hopefully it's fixed for good :-)
This is exactly what happened to me. I updated to IOS7 and my HDMI to iPhone and iPad cable worked fine with both devices. Yesterday at noon it was working fine. At 7:00 yesterday evening it stopped working. I had a message that my TV was not compatible and that if I was using AirPlay that I'd have to turn off mirroring. This was the same message both on iPhone and iPad. Very discouraging.
I've been using NetFlix exclusively for over a month, as when I got the HDMI cable from Apple, Amazon movies had a similar message.
I've determined that the change happened because under Settings/ iTunes & App Store/Automatic Downloads, I had updates on. Netflix Version 5 must have been downloaded and updated betweeen noon and 7:00 yesterday, and that is the problem. I then found that the older version of the NetFlix app was still on my Mac, V4.3 or so. I deleted the V5.0 from my iPhone, went to iTunes on my Mac, selected the iPhone, went to apps, and selected "update." After syncing, IT WORKS!
Hi,
This seems to work.
Reset Issues
If your Wi-Fi connection is properly set and you can use the Internet without trouble, yet the Netflix app still freezes when trying to load your movie, you may need to reset your iPad's network settings. Netflix has not released an official explanation for this error, but the solution works regardless of the problem's cause. Go into your iPad's "Settings" app and choose "Reset," then "Reset network settings" and confirm your choice. This basically reboots your iPad's Wi-Fi connection. After the reset is complete, tap the "Wi-Fi" area under "Settings" and select your network to reconnect. Enter your password if prompted, and then try Netflix streaming again.

Maybe this will help you and others;
A little background:
After updating my iPad 4 to ios 7, Netflix has been giving me the connection error message. I went into my safari cookies settings and it was already set on "from third parties and advertisers", so I tried and mess around with the settings-- failed. After months of frustration (tried power off and on and playing with the toggles), I just waited out for the next update. I could have deleted the app and just redownload it but I didn't think that simple solution would fix my problems, so I waited.
Problem fixed:
Two months later, my patience ran out and I just went ahead and deleted the netflix app and redownload it (simple solution, right?). I felt so stupid and excited at the same time! It worked! I couldn't believe the simple solutions could fix something so technical as an update to fix the problem. Good luck!
Netflix not working on iPad2 since iOS 7 upgrade.
