Q: Why can't I get Netflix to play on my iPad airplay or on Apple Tv?

We bought Apple TV and have a subscription to Netflix. I logged into Netflix via my iPad (v1; 7.0.2) and everytime I play a movie it says "error in the connection - please try again later." So, I logged into Netflix directly through Apple Tv and every time I picked a movie I got the same error. I finally got one movie to work, which just frustrated me more since the first 5 I picked didn't.

 

Does anyone have any idea why I can't get Netflix to work on Apple TV - either through airplay or through Apple Tv itself? Surely there is a simply answer to this (some movies just won't play?), because after trying for 20 minutes with a disappointed family I'm about ready to send Apple TV back to Apple (or cancel Netflix).

 

Thanks,

 

Andy
