Q: Bloomberg no longer works on Apple TV

Bloomberg on demand programming no longer works. 

 

I did go through the trouble of restoring my Apple TV to no effect.

It is more than two years since you had this problem in 2014 and now the problem has cropped up in 2016 for me too.

Suddenly, the Bloomberg TV app for Apple TV won't display the lineup of shows or play any of them. All I can watch is the Live Now content. I tried restarting to no avail and wonder if I have to wait four days like you did for it to resolve mysteriously... come on Bloomberg/Apple! fix it!

    Looks like they fixed it!!

    I tried it today an I can play the clips and shows again.

    The only thing that was a bit different is that when I play a clip it nolonger automaticaly plays the next clip. A minimal annoyance.

    Otherwise, I'm just glad it's back up and running.

    Thanks Apple, or Bloomberg..., whoever:)

    Yeah, now fixed...thank you. As mentioned, it would be nice to restore the feature that automatically played the next clip in the series.

    I don't even get a spinning wheel- just a black screen when I move the focus/cursor to "Bloomberg" "Shows" and "Playlist".  Only "Live Now" works.

    I used the Feedback option within the app (I think it is in the app's settings). After rating the app "poor" and answering a few questions, it gave me a contact address, which I used to send a mail via another device. They said they were looking into it,  but you might want to send them a mail also, just to nudge them along.

    Update: Bloomberg mailed me back promptly to say they were working on it. I have no idea whether they fixed the problem, or if it resolved for some other reason, but the Bloomberg TV app is working again on my Apple TV, at least for now.
