Can i stream amazon prime to apple tv

Can I stream Amazon Prime using Apple TV?

If that's the case it's likely the content provider/Amazon is blocking the video component of Airplay.

    can i get amazon prime on apple tv

    The answer is subjective depending on your view point.
    Amazon prime has very little value accept for it's supposedly free movie service, so what you are really paying for is essentially a very similar service to NetFlix at a slightly higher cost, the Apple TV offers NetFlix and has a premium movie service in iTunes which most people would require in addition to NetFlix or Amazon. A hardware solution seems somewhat over the top to me.

  • HT4437 Why can't you stream Amazon Prime using Apple TV?

    The whole reason I bought the Apple TV was to be able to stream from my ipad and my macpro to TV my Amazon Prime free movies. Now it looks like this is blocked. This seems outrageous. I told the sales person at the store what I wanted to do and they recommended the Apple TV. When I went back they did not know that Amazon Prime is blocked. What's up with this? Any chance that Amazon Prime will be able to be on seen on Apple TV any time soon?

    Not sure if an app will be realeased, but you can stream Amazon Instant Videos from your computer to your Apple TV. 

  • Can I access amazon prime videos via Apple TV?

    I am an Amazon Prime member.  I also have Apple TV.  Can I access Amazon Prime videos via my Apple TV?

    I was about to buy Apple TV when I found out about this.  Looks like I'm getting ROKU this weekend instead.  It's such ashame that everything has to be competitive.  Geez...Apple is killing the industry so why worry?  I have to look at the bottom dollar, and paying $79 for Amazon Prime and unable to stream to my television...and since Roku is $49 cheaper than Apple TV and I have more streaming content...looks like the smart choice.

  • Trying to stream Amazon Prime Free videos from Ipad via Mirroring to Apple TV

    Trying to stream Amazon Prime Free videos from Ipad via Mirroring to Apple TV.  Trailer plays fine. Real Movie plays audio only. Some error messahe that HD video can't be played over HDMI cable.  I telling ya that 25 foot VGA cable is looking better and better.  Apple TV tech the differrence had to be done at  the time of encoding

    Amazon blocks Airplay in encoding the movie. It's not the HDMI cable, or AppleTV for that matter.

  • HT204291 I cannot stream amazon prime to my tv? I can get sound but no video.

    I am using my iPad and cannot stream amazon prime to the tv?
    The sound comes thru but no video!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Websites and third party Apps need enabling before they will allow AirPlay of Video content. Some Website/App developers have not enabled their products, some simply haven't got around to it yet, others have stated that they won't be enabling AirPlay (likely as a result of licensing issues).
    Amazon have blocked both basic AirPlay and mirroring.

    Not natively.
    Using AirPlay Mirroring the content can be sent from a supported Mac or iOS device (using the Amazon videos app)

  • HT204291 Amazon prime on Apple TV?

    How can I get amazon prime video streaming to work on Apple TV

    Speak to Amazon, their app does not support it.  It is not an issue the user can fix.  You can mirror if you have the capabiklity though.

  • BDP-S3100 won't stream Amazon Prime

    If anyone else has had this specific problem and can shed some light I will be very grateful. This bluray player is about a year old.  We've been using it to stream both Netflix and Amazon Prime for the past year.  A few days ago we started having a problem with Amazon Prime.  When the app starts it let's me browse for a show or movie without issue.  I select what I want to watch and then it checks the internet connection.  It reports the speed to be between 30 and 40 Mbps on average.  The problem comes right before it would normally start to stream the video.  It just sits there with the little wheel spinning, usually for about a minute before the message appears - "The network is down." I have checked to see if Amazon Prime is experiencing an outtage.  When the problem first occurred it looked like maybe they were.  One website showed numerous outtage reports for Amazon Prime right after Christmas.  But currently there doesn't seem to be any widespread problem and I've not been able to stream for over a week now. My internet connection is fine.  All other wired and wireless devices are not having any issues. I have reset my cable modem and router.  This did not fix the problem. I have tried a wired and wireless connection to the bluray player.  The problem exists both ways. I have reset the bluray player to its factory settings.  This did not fix the problem. I have confirmed that I'm able to stream Amazon Prime on other devices using the same modem/router.  We can stream Amazon Prime videos on our laptops without issues. That's everything I can think of that we've tried.  I'm starting to wonder if the player has ****** out.  It's just weird that I can browse online content, meaning the player is connecting to the internet, but when it tries to stream a video it fails.

    This is just my personal theory, so please take it with a grain of salt. Sony got hacked right after Christmas and that's when the trouble started.  At first it didn't make sense to me that this would be the cause because Amazon servers would be responsible for streaming my instant video, not Sony's.  But it's rumored that Sony BD devices are routing through Sony services on the way to requesting streaming video from Amazon.  If that is true (and I don't know if it is) then I wonder if Amazon put some additional security measures in place following the Sony hack.  In other words, Amazon says "ok Sony, you obviously have some security issues so we are going to put the kybosh on requests for video coming through you".  End result - Amazon Prime customers can't access streaming video through Sony's BD devices, but they can by just about any other means.  Also, Sony BD devices continue to stream other services like Netflix and Hulu, but just not Amazon Prime. Fast forward a couple of weeks - Sony develops a system udpate that allows their Amazon Prime app to comply with Amazon's new security requirements.  Sony BD device owners (like the poster above) perform the update and voila, they can stream Amazon Prime again. Again, that's just my theory.  I have not heard any of the above from Sony or Amazon.  But tonight I'm going to do the system update when I get home and see if it fixes my issues across the board.  As of this morning it was still very random.  One video willl play and the next won't.

  • Can you use Amazon prime/instant video on a yoga?

    Been thinking about signing up but need to know if it works on the yoga browser or chrome?
    If I can only get it working my pc then its probably not worth it

    I just found this, and am glad I did. Just purchased the Yoga 2 8in and was worried that I wouldn't be able to stream Amazon prime and have my Google stuff. Getting harder to find units that do both these days. No one wants to play with each other anymore.
    I must have spent hours looking for a tablet that was fair priced and had decent specs with 2gig RAM AND was able to play Amazon and Google.
    Well keep this page bookmarked and will refer to it when I get my new tab.

  • Streaming Amazon Prime Video

    I have an iPad 2 with iOS 8.1 and an Amazon Prime Instant Video subscription that I stream through the Amazon Instant Video App.  Can anyone tell me if the Digital AV cable (30-pin to hdmi) will allow me to stream Amazon Prime Instant Videos on my tv by directly connecting my iPad2?  I've heard some apps will only stream the audio to the tv with no picture.

  • Can't stream a rental on Apple TV 2 (black box)

    Hi folks!!
    I was wondering if anyone can help me out.  We rented a movie on our Mac, using my hubsand's apple id, but we can't stream it on the Apple TV.  We never had this problem before.  We got to rentals on Apple TV & the spinning icon keeps on spinning.  I can stream the movies we have from our library, but some reason we can't stream this rental. 
    We decided to test it and see if we can see it on the Mac and we were able to.  Now, we have 23 hours left of a movie that we only saw 1 second of it on the Mac.
    HELP!!!!

    Never mind.
    I just unplug the cords to Apple TV & reconnected them. BAM!! It worked!!
