Apple TV iMovie theater is not showing any movies or projects

I just (9:21 AM MDT, 23 Jan) spoke with Apple TV support regarding this issue. As of 22 Jan, this has been logged as an issue that Apple is looking into. No ETA on a fix, but at least there is someone investigating the issue.

Exactly same issue here - at least I know it’s not just my device. Tried full reset and restore of Apple TV twice but no luck. Seems barely a day goes by now without a problem with one of my many Apple devices. They certainly aren’t as good as they used to be

I also have this issue. iMovie has worked really well on Apple TV 3rd and 4th generation. Content always loaded via same iOS devices. Now it’s stopped working. Spoke to Apple and, although helpful, they were stumped and have passed to technical team. Fingers crossed for fix soon.

I am having the same issue. I did open a case via the phone and the support person told me that they are aware o the issue but there is no solution at present.

My specific situation is that I have video clips imported into iMovie and shared in iCloud that by selecting "Theatre (default)". The movie was shared and saved to iCloud. I can view the movie on laptop, iMac, iPhone, iPad, but not on AppleTV.

Did all of the support recommendations

1) Re saved the video clip into iMove (Cloud)

2) Updated AppleTV to the latest S/W version

3) log out of my iCloud account on AppleTV

4) log in to my iCloud account on AppleTV

5) Restart AppleTV

6) ...and so forth...and so on.

I spoke with Apple Support on Sunday and they confirmed this is a known issue and are working on a fix. They confirmed, as this thread confirms, it is not isolated to any one user. No timeframe was given for a resolution.

Like others, I have latest TVOS and have reloaded the App; signed in/out, even did an OS reset.

Initially got a screen message about "your content appearing here", but now get an error message about "iCloud or Internet problems and please try again later".

All other iCloud service working fine and Theater is working on iOS and Mac.

One question for other Mac users: On the main Theater Screen do you see a Cloud icon (top right corner) and does it have a Tilda ~ through it? Just curious....

Apple TV and iMovie theatre were working perfectly until about 2 to 3 weeks ago...suddenly it stopped working. I reinstalled the app, signed out and back in again and spent about 2 hours on hold waiting for I-apps people to help. No luck. The app seems to be defective...and they are working on it...but very slowly.

I check it every few days on my Apple TV and get a charming message that this is the place to watch the movies I have in the iMovie theatre. (Coming soon to a theatre near you....essentially.)

Perhaps the more we all complain about this, the more resources  will throw at the problem to resolve it.

When it works...it is fabulous...

I am having the same issue. Apple TV 2 and all my movies created in iMovie and shared in Theater DOES NOT appear anymore in my Apply TV 2 itheater. In fact just for fun, i created another icloud account and shared one movie in theater to see if Apple TV itheater will show it with my new account. No, same issue. I even went to Apply Store for Genius appointment and they cannot fix it themselves(after re-installing software for apple TV). It seems they want you to buy a new Apple TV lol...Anyway, when you look at the icloud storage, i noticed that the imovie videos are showing up as "document" and not videos. I thought it might be the issue but there's nothing we can do. This is frustrating since I have around 15 movies in there. Icloud photos is OK but iMovie videos wont show up.

It is annoying. The only way to watch them on your apple tv is either mirror your mac or if you saved the movies in itunes goto apple tv and then computer and while you have itunes open you can watch your movies in there

I have also had this problem for over a week, but yesterday half of my movies in Theatre on my iMac were not usable, half were grayed out and wouldn't work and the other half worked fine. A week ago the Mac was fine. I would suggest that Apple has a server problem, but they need to get it fixed and fast.

I just am noticing this now, just installed iMovie Theater on my new 4K Apple TV and it just shows the "your content will appear here" message. the content does appear on my other devices (my rMBP and my iPhone) but doesn't on my ATV. I also just noticed the tilde on the icloud icon on the Mac OS version of iMove in the upper right. doesn't say tho whats the problem (which is what thats supposed to represent that there is an issue).

Apple...are you going to fix this? I spent a ton of time thinking it was an error on my end. Nope! The FAQ's should state "know issue...we are working on it!" Pretty lame to hide issues. I'm pretty close to pulling the cord on Apple.

At last. It only took 6 weeks and an email to Tim Cook. Problems like this should be sorted in days. There were enough people complaining to make this an urgent matter. Come on Apple its time to buck your ideas up!!

I hope mine works when i get home. Is there an update?

I wish they would release a statement saying they knew there was a problem as it would have saved me and alot of others hours of their time restarting apple tv deleting i movie reinstalling logging in and out factory reinstall.

TO FIND OUT IT WAS APPLES END THAT WAS THE PROBLEM

Same problem. Spent a long time with Apple support who seemed unaware of the problem we are all having. They were supposed to call me back but did not. Switched to all Apple products several years ago because it all "just worked" but that is not true now. Very frustrating! iMovie on Apple TV suddenly stopped showing the movies in the theater.

I had the same issue. My videos did not show up on the iMovie Theater app on Apple TV as they had in the past. This problem was fixed by Apple. Not sure if your issue is the same. If its not resolved I would call Apple again and complain.
