Can someone please explain why whenever Apple TV (2) hiccups I need to reactivates all my entertainment/info apps i.e. HBO Go, Watch ESPN, CNN etc. Apple TV is the only place where this happens. I am to the point where I refuse to do it anymore. Once is enough. Thank You
Apple TV (4th generation)
Are you referring to Apple TV version 2, or Apple TV version 4?
What do you mean by "hiccups"?
Hi,
He means when he dips it in one of those very large wine glasses when it has wine in it 😁👿

Apple TV (2)
I would have read this as Apple TV version 2 myself.

Hi Ralph,
I guess the OP isn't sure, since it says Apple TV (2) and also Apple TV (4th generation) also. Seemed worth getting straight. But thanks for offering.
Just a thought here. Have you been selecting "Reset" to recover from these hiccups? That clears out all settings. "Restart" is all you need to get back to normal after some problem, and it leaves your settings intact.
Also, how is ATV connecting to the internet? There's a remote possibility that the servers see it as a new client and require new logins.
oh,D
Should've read the Specs.

I have been having the same problem. No hiccup is needed. There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to when I will have to reactivate an app. Also, it happens on both 3rd generation and 4th generation Apple TV - I have both. PBS seems to never require reactivation, but most apps do, usually about once a week - again there seems to be no pattern. This may not be Apple's fault, but they are going to have to fix it. If not Apple, then who can help fix this? My cable company? Or do I have to contact Disney, or NBC, or ESPN, or whoever else has a "faulty" app? Or is this going to be just the way it is?
