I can't stream netflix using apple tv?

Hello Folks,
Recently,, I've been having a problem when accessing Netflix on my Apple TV.
I go and select a movie from my list and it seems like its going to start playing and all I get is a spinning gear.
I've tried restarting Apple TV, that does nothing. I've checked my network settings and it shows a full strength signal.
I can switch to You Tube on Apple TV and videos play fine.
However, I can access Netflix using my PS3 and movies stream normally.
Can anyone provide some trouble shooting steps to try?

That indicates a network issue, the signal/network test on the device isn't going to be a proper indicator.
Try connecting via ethernet
Make sure DNS is set to auto (settings - general - network)
Get a network report by going to istumbler, netstumbler or similar. See what it says for signal strength, noise and nearby networks.

  • How can I stream Netflix on Apple TV

    How can I stream Netflix to Apple TV? On Apple TV Internet setting shows you tube but not Netflix.

    You'll need to make sure you have the new black small AppleTV and not the original one.
    If you do have the new one, you can make sure to do any of the software updates from the settings menu (I think.. I don't have one to reference).
    It appears under the Internet tab and is very clearly on the list.

  • How can I stream audio from Apple TV 2 to Airport Express speakers.

    how can I stream audio from Apple TV 2 to Airport Express speakers.
    I have LCD projector on one wall and connected ATV to it via HDMI.
    Speakers on the other wall and connected to APXpress.

    To be honest the times we've wanted to have music from more than one set of speakers, I've usually used my mac's iTunes library and controlled it either from the mac or from my phone, since they're not really the times we have any TV on anyway. I've tested AirTunes from the Apple TV but can't recall whether it worked with content from a streaming library.
    Now I've got something to do.

  • Can i stream for 2 apple tv so i mean 3 monitors

    can i stream to 2 apple tvs i mean monitor 1 is the mac one and 2&3 are monitors

    Apple TVs are connected to HDTVs and each monitor requires its own Apple TV. You can use home sharing to stream from multiple computers TO Apple TV, but you can't stream FROM one Apple TV to multiple monitors.

    How can I get netflix on Apple TV to auto play the next episode?

    I don't have the answer to this question, and yes, I checked the "I have the same question, too" box.. But so did 30 some other people.. So, I've scoured the web and looked high and low into the Apple TV device.. HOW CAN I DO IT? My playstation 3 did it[.. My WDTV box top I've had for 2 years can do it! My Smart Vizio TV [netflix app built in to the tv] can do it! My Apple ipad can do it. My iPhone can do it.. So, can my Apple TV do this? Or Not?

  • I can't stream netflix with an extra apple display ...

    ...on a MBP11,3 i7 late 2013 with Yosemite.
    I just switched from 10.9 to 10.10 and my apple display 2006 isn't supported anymore for streaming Netflix, probably due to some HDCP issues.
    Netflix only works with the display unhooked, yesterday (10.9) it all worked fine ...
    Sorry Apple, I don't like this.
    How can we solve this issue?
    Tx

    Already found a solution.
    Apparently it is the HTML5/DHCP in Yosemite which causes the problem.
    In Netflix preferences I unchecked HTML5, so it plays now on Silverlight.
    That did the trick, I can use both my MBP screen and the Apple display again while streaming Netflix.
    Easy fix.

  • Can you stream Netflix from an iPad to Apple TV?

    Hi,
    We have a relatively small TV set and sit relatively far away from it. Therefore making Netflix choices with Apple TV and remote is difficult, since the print is too small. It would be way easier to make Netflix choices with the iPad on my lap, and have the iPad stream the movie to ATV.
    Airplay works well with Apple apps like iTunes & iPhoto, but does it work with non Apple apps? If so, how does one get it to work?
    Thanks,
    Klaus

    Can you stream purchased movies from Apple Time Machine to Apple TV?
    No.
    Time Machine is an application.
    Time Capsule is hardware (what you have).
    As suggested, you download them to iTunes and they will work fine on the AppleTV.
    So, what I was wondering, is it possible to stream from Apple Time Machine to Apple TV, i.e. use Time Machine to store your movies for Apple TV?
    Yes but you need a computer running iTunes.

  • Streaming netflix through apple tv using airpot extreme.

    I am having trouble streaming netflix through my apple tv using airport extreme router.  How can I fix this problem?

    What kind of problems?
    Accessing Netflix from AppleTV or Airplaying Mirroring via iPad (which would be pointless as it's available on AppleTV direct even if it worked)?
    Does other stuff like movie rentals, iTunes previews work ok?

  • I am trying to watch Netflix using Apple TV and it constantly stops to buffer. I have restarted it several times.

    I am trying to watch Netflix on my Apple TV and it keeps buffering. I have restarted it several times.

    ATV is wireless.  DNS is set to Auto.  It's not my network. 
    The ATV's performance with Netflix (only App I tried) was worse using Google's DNS as others have suggested.  The problem with the Netflix App (for me) only occurred after the latest iOS update to ATV, and it seems to have affected only the Netflix App. 
    As I mentioned in my original comment, the Vizio in my room (which happens to be further from the WiFi source) runs just fine and streams Netflix with no issues.  In fact, we can run it while simultaneously streaming on the ATV and the Vizio Netflix App still doesn't skip a beat.  I can simultaneously run two or three other laptops on WiFi (since my wife and I both work from home) and she'll have the Vizio streaming the entire time and there are no issues. 
    If we switch the ATV to Hulu+ (or other Apps), it runs fine, but the shows my kids want to watch are on Netflix.  All indications point to the Netflix App and an issue endemic to Apple.

  • How to eliminate subtitles when streaming Netflix through Apple TV?

    When streaming movies from Netflix through Apple TV, sub-titles appeared and we canot find a menu or symbol to click to eliminate the sub titles.  They carry over to our next item.  How can I eliminate the sub titles.

  • Can I stream from my apple tv to another apple device?

    My TV speakers are bad...really bad.  I use a Bose Sound Dock to listen to music with my ipod and iphone but I would love to use it as sound from my tv.  Due the the Sound Dock only having aux in v. sereo in, I think my only option is to stream to the device.  Is it possible to stream from the apple tv to the ipod/iphone through a wireless connection?
    Thanks for any tips or advice in advance.
    Cheers,
    JW

    It can output to wireless speakers that work with airplay.

  • Can I stream through my Apple TV from my Android phone?

    CCan I stream from my Android phone to my Apple TV

    You can only stream from your mac using iTunes. You can't 'push' video from a website for example.
    For the home-sharing. Is your computer on and running iTunes? Are the videos in the correct format?
    It needs to meet the compatibility of the ATV
    H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    In iTunes you need to go to advanced - choose photos to share, if you haven't done so already.
