Flickr Photostream Not Available

I have a third generation Apple TV. For the last 5 days I have been unable to access my most recent flickr content on the apple tv only. I contacted Yahoo and here was their response.

I have a third generation Apple TV. For the last five days I have been unable to access the Photostream through my Flickr app. I have been receiving a message that says Flickr is temporarily not available. The rest of my apps are working. My flickr account works fine on my computer. I contacted Yahoo and here was their response.

After reviewing your description, it appears that your Apple TV is not successfully linking your most current Flickr page and is instead displaying a cached version. You may need to contact Apple for full instruction on resetting your devices connection to your Flickr account.

Contact Apple Support

Any suggestions?

Hi Francis,

Glad you contacted Flickr as the issue seems isolated to their content.

Have you tried restarting the Apple TV?

Apple TV: Troubleshooting third-party content providers - Apple Support

If the issue is affecting a single content provider on your Apple TV, restart your Apple TV by going to Settings > General > Restart. If the issue continues, you might need to contact the content provider.

The restart seems to be what they are after.

Hi Nubz,

Thank you so much for trying to help. This has really been a pain. Yes, I have restarted the Apple TV and the router several times, including unplugging them. I reset the Apple TV today and that did not help. Thanks again. Any other ideas are warmly welcomed.

Regards,

Fran
