Q: Cable TV Apps Not Loading
For a while I was getting the Netflix error saying that "a problem occurred..." and all my other TV apps were working fine. Then, after a lot of reinstalling and searching for fixes for Netflix, one day it started working again. Great!
Now the problem is that a lot of my other TV apps have stopped working. HBO Go, NBC, ESPN and such have all stopped working. The app will "launch" but once it's trying to load anything, the loading circle in the center of the screen just keeps spinning. I've deleted, reinstalled the apps and nothing. I know my cable provider is still active because I can log on using my phone and other means.
Also, a curious note is that I can load and watch HBO Go on my iPhone, I can Airplay my iPhone to ATV, but the HBO Go will not Airplay to ATV. Once I have HBO Go running on my iPhone and I switch to Airplay, it will not play on the ATV.
I've made sure my ATV was updated, which it is not using the latest update, 10, I believe.
Anyone had any problem similar to this?
*I don't know if the Netflix problem then suddenly working again is anything to do with or related to the other apps failing, but that's just the way things happened.
Apple TV, iOS 10, ATV 4
