Could not add channel to favorites list. please try again later

Since the last update to my FIOS box a few weeks ago, we've got new HD channels (which I CAN tune to) that I can not add to my favorites list. I get an error that says"could not add channel to favorites list. please try again later". I also tried 'add all to favorites' and it still will not add them. I have removed and re added other channels to make sure the 'mechanism' itself ins't broken. 
I've tried manualy powering off and on etc to try to get it working again., but nothing has helped. I use the favorites to tune the box so that I can skip over channels that I don't have (that is to say, my favorites list is just the channels that I get [no HBO etc]) so it's a big hassle to  not be able to have all the channels I have available.
 Does anybody know what I can do about this? 

You need to call the FSC and have them do an INIT , not just a reset, of your box - this fixed the problem on my 3 STBs.  This will wipe out parental controls, audio compression settings, RF channel output (if applicable), and any other user settings that reside in nonvolatile RAM.   The problem is a corruption of the nonvolatile RAM that can only be fixed by a box initialization - again NOT JUST A RESET.
If it is a DVR you will not lose your recordings and you may or may not lose your series programming settings (I didn't).

    Hi everyone!
    It says: Crazy Moto HD and 12 other items could not be purchased at this time, please try again later!
    I even searched here and found a solution for the same problem by signing out from the account, closing open apps and reseting
    The device, but this could not solve my problem! I am having the problem for over a month!
    Any new solutions, thanks!

  • ERROR: Could not connect to WhatsApp service. Please try again later.

    Hi,
    Today there was a connection error with WhatsApp. I needed to send something, so decided to delete and then reinstall the app to try and attempt to fix the connection problem. I am using the iPhone 5C.
    Once I redownloaded the app, I opened it and the app asked me for my phone number. I typed it in.
    But to my surprise, I got this error:
    Could not connect to WhatsApp service. Please try again later.
    After several attempts of writing my phone number (100% in the correct format) I had found no luck or success.
    Anyone else having this error, or is it just me? Please provide some steps on how to fix this if so!
    Thank you

    Thank you for the heads up. It seems like it's working now.
    For everyone with this problem please thank AlbertoRuperto and follow these steps:
    1. Restart your iPhone.
    2. Open WhatsApp.
    3. Enter your phone number.
    4. Enter verification code (if you're a new member) or just click 'Next' if you're a returning user.
    5. Done! All your contacts should be there and your chats (as long as you backed them up).
    P.S. This only applies to people who redownloaded and are stuck on phone verification page.

  • Sorry we could not reach the Netflix service. Please try again later.If the problem persists please visit the Netflix website.

    I know my internet connection is working and Netflix still wont load or just cut me off completly at half way thur watching an episode.

    Same here... I have 2 AppleTV's:  1 in my LR, and another in my bedroom.  Netflix works fine on my MacBook Pro, my iPhone, and on the AppleTV in my LR... but refuses to play on my bedroom unit.  I've tried the unplug/wait thing.. resetting... ensuring that my LR unit wasn't still playing content...etc.  No joy.
    Contacted Netflix... they say it's not on their end, since I can get service on all of my other devices.
    Has anyone returned their unit to the Genius Bar guys yet?

  • Outlook Web App - Distribution Lists (Your Request can not be completed right now. Please Try again Later).

    We just migrated over to Exchange 2013 and have a few issues.  The main concern is users and their individual distribution lists didn't carry over correctly.  I narrowed it down to the lists that users received via an email, then dragged-n-dropped
    onto their Contact area.  All other individual contacts and other lists can be viewed/edited, its just the ones that was copied via an email into their contacts.  We get the message that "Your request can not be completed right now.  Please
    try again later."  This is an important asset to be able to pass distribution lists from one user to another user (per department); but don't want to make the list a global list.  These distribution lists can be seen if using the full outlook
    version; but won't display in OWA.

    Ok - an update ...
    Managed to get the phone to backup to iCloud, so decided to risk the "Factory" reset.
    Took the reset option including delete all data and crossed fingers.
    It took a while to resotre from iCloud, but everthing seems to be back and ...
    Bluetooth now working agaim.
    Backup to Computer working again.
    And somewhat to my surprise, GMail in the mail app is working again. (The surprise being that the implication of other posts was that this was a 6.1.3 fundamental bug)
    Still no idea why the iPhone was corrupted - but at least the "Factory" reset seems to have recovered the situation.

  • The Apple TV update could not be downloaded at this time.  Try again later??   Later never comes.  What do I do now?

    Yesterday Apple TV worked... But today I get the message on screen that Apple TV could not be downloaded at this time.  try again later.  The problem is that never seems to never come.  What can I do?

    Welcome to the Apple Community GentKY.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
        1.    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
        2.    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
        3.    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
        4.    Open iTunes.
        5.    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    (You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

  • "Sorry we could not reach the Netflix Service. Please try again...  (112)"

    Twice this week I have watched a several episodes of a TV show on Netflix through my Apple TV and then try to go to the next episode but get the a message that says:
    SORRY WE ARE UNABLE TO CONNCT TO THE NETFLIX SERVICE. PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER. IF THE PROBLEM PERSISTS PLEASE VISIT THE NETFLIX WEBSITE (112).
    I am able to navigate through the Netflix menu, but unable to watch anything.
    I visited the Netflix website and they don't offer an explanation beyond restarting Apple TV or calling Apple.
    I AM able to use other features on Apple TV (such as YouTube)-- just can't watch Netflix.

    In case you did not already see this.

  • I'm trying to change my number online and an error message keeps popping up saying "We could not change your number online. Please try again or contact Customer Service for assistance at 800-922-0204."

    can anyone help me? I've been trying ti change it since last night.

        Help is right here, front and center caibadass. May I ask what's the reason for the mobile number change? Are you logged into My Verizon as the account owner to make such a change? If you can share the details then we can assist. Keep in mind that if the number is changed online then there is not a cost.
    Thank you...

  • App Store says, "Tuner! and 4 other apps could not be downloaded at this time. Please try again later." How may I appease the Store?

    App Store says, "Tuner! and 4 other apps could not be downloaded at this time. Please try again later."
    How may I appease the Store? The message first appeared a couple of weeks ago and seems to reappear every time I download something from the App Store, be it an update or a new app. I tried re-downloading and re-deleting "Tuner!" (this is the only one whose name I can see), but to no avail. I even tried hiding a whole load of apps from my Purchased list (including Tuner!) in the hope that the five offenders would GO AWAY and stop waiting around being nuisances ;) I haven't noticed them slowing down/stopping my other downloads, so I never paid the pop-up notice much attention, but it is starting to bug me now.
    Thank you if you can help.

    I have been getting the message from time to time over the last couple of weeks.  I just click through, and the download haooens anyway.      The other day I looged onto my accout in apple.com, and it simply wanted me to verify the ccv on the credit card.    
    I am glas your solution worked, but I am not sure you needed to do a full wipe and reinstall.   There is some goofy stuff going on with the store, but nothing you can't get by.
