I have Apple TV. Works great for Netflix. Now I want to watch Showtime, which I have a subscription for through Dish, and it continues to ask me for an activation code for Showtimeanytime.


Where do I get the code??

You may be able to stream or connect to devices, not sure of how Dishnet

could bottleneck the idea. The activation code would likely be ShowTime

or Dish network. I see indications of an App for this, because of second

Re: How do I activate showtime anytime on Apple TV?


The reply by ikrupp suggested a path to see if provider complied.

They had trouble back then with Dish and others. IF Dish network

offers you participation in this program, the ShowTime accounts

set up site would have a place to activate it & provide you a code.


Not sure if you will be able use showtime anytime unless Dish

has provided their subscribership with this ability.


Good luck & happy trails! 🙂
