Watching movies from Netflix app on your tv from iPhone 5

I was wondering, since at the moment I'm without cable tv and internet because of a dispute with my local cable provider, is there a way I can 'mirror' or whatever movies from the netflix app to my tv? I don't have any special cables for my iPhone but for my MacBook Pro I do use a HDMI cable from my macbook to my tv (just a regular Sanyo 46" LCD TV) and it works just fine. I figure if I can somehow connect my iPhone to my MacBook Pro, then to my tv I might can stream the movies on my phone but shows on my tv.
As I said, right now I don't have internet (just relying on Sprints network) and I'm not in range of any free wifi.

You may be able to do so through your "Personal Hotspot".
Hook your computer to your TV.
On your phone under settings click "Personal Hotspot" and turn it on, use the information provided to connect your computer to your "Hotspot".
That should work so you can use Netflix on your computer since you'll now have wi-fi.

Hi Everyone,
hope this message finds you all in time. The recent Apple TV update 5.1 is terrible. Apple knows it is which is why (thankfully for some relentless user -I have no idea who but I believe it was under threat) they have allowed to sign 5.0.2 again which means you can downgrade your Apple TV 2 and 3 to a 5.0.2 version via iTunes. Who knows how long they will keep the window open but I have downgraded my ATV early this morning. I couldn't post this earlier because I was out all day but I am doing it now.
Here's how to do it:
1) Connect your ATV to your computer via a Mini USB (not included with ATV but included with many other electronic devices) - in order for your ATV to appear in iTunes you must FIRST plug the USB cable to your computer and ATV and only THEN plug the power cable.
2) Download your ipsw restore file from Apple.
5.0.2 (ATV 2): AppleTV2,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
5.0.2 (ATV 3): AppleTV3,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
3) In iTunes select yout ATV, hold SHIFT and click on Restore
4) Find and choose the downloaded IPSW file in the Open Dialog Box and hit Next
5) As long as Apple still signs that version the Restore process will begin and will take a few minutes to complete.
Enjoy!

How can I change the language of a movie I am watching on my Netflix app on the iPad

I am watching a movie on my iPad via the Netflix app and the movie is in Spanish, I would like it to be in English but I can't find a way to fix the problem, please help.

But in the Netflix app is a place where you can watch unlimited movies and tv shows for only around 8 dollars a month.
so what i need help in is how to change the language of the movie that i am watching, in the app there in no menu or any way to rent, buy, or download moveis, (atleast non that i am aware of)
So if i am watching a movie and it is being played in spanish, i would like to know how i acn change the language of the movie.

Parental Control Netflix app

Suggestion for apple tv 3 netflix ios 6 and up
* Auto - play to next episode and movies
*Airplay netflix from ipad and iphone and macbook
Parental Control Netflix setting feature where users can disable enable the search / genre feature for parenthood with kids
which leaves us with just for kids and instant queue and sign out option
It will be great to bring parental control on apple tv 3 netflix setting to disable some feature like
Search .suggestion for you .recently watched .genres ,tv shows ,new releases
when it disable it will only show instant queue and just for kids and sign out
so one is for just for kids movies and shows and instant queue is what titles we have on queue
love to see parental control for netflix app on v 3 for iOS 6
thank you

Apple - Netflix app needs some work!

While the Netflix app on the ATV 2 is pretty good, there are a few things that are really frustrating. Here are three things I feel are essential to make the ATV 2 the best Netflix player (allowing me to sit back and just use the ATV 2 to browse and find titles to watch without needing to have a computer on hand):
1. Add the ability to view and browse ALL titles for a specific genre (for some reason, some streaming titles show up online but not on ATV 2 when browsing through - the only way to find these titles is to do a search).
2. Like in the web version of Netflix when viewing all titles in a certain category, allow sorting by title, rating and release date (this would also be nice when browsing what's available in iTunes by the way). Right now, I can't figure out how things are sorted (seems random to me). The easiest way for me to find movies I want to watch is to be able to view all titles under a genre and then sort in different ways. I can't do that on ATV 2 currently, so hopefully it will be added.
3. Show a pop-up overview of rating, release date and small description when highlighting a title. Again, this is a feature on the Netflix site that is really nice and helps when browsing through trying to find a movie I want watch. It is much quicker than having to click on a title to see details, and then go back to browsing.
Here are a two other minor things that would be nice to have as well:
4. Show which titles are in HD and confirm when there is enough bandwidth for HD quality when starting the playback. My blu-ray player does this - first letting me know a title is available in HD and confirming that it was able to stream in HD once started. I know this is a minor request and you can tell by the quality if it is HD once it starts, but I think it would be a nice feature.
5. Please indicate episodes of series that have already been watched (my blu-ray player does this and it's nice). Again, this isn't a major issue, but would be nice to have.

In iTunes 8:
Go into your iTunes preferences and select the Devices tab. Make sure "Look for iPhone and iPod Touch Remotes" is selected. If it already is, try clicking "Forget All Remotes"
In iTunes 7:
Go into your iTunes preferences and select the Advanced tab. Select the General tab beneath it, and make sure "Look for iPhone and iPod Touch Remotes" is selected. If it already is, try clicking "Forget All Remotes"
You also want to be sure that both devices (the computer and the iPod) are connected to the same wireless network.

How do I find, download, and install an older version of the Netflix app?

I was using the Netflix app when it froze up trying to start playing an episode of a TV show. Rebooting my iPhone 5 didn't unfreeze it, so I deleted the app. When I went into the App Store to download it again, it said I had to update to iOS 7.0 or higher in order to download the Netflix app. In the past, the App Store has given me the option to download an older version of the app and this has always fixed any problems I have had with it. Next, I tried logging into iTunes on my laptop (I'm working in Windows, in case that makes a difference) to see if it would give me the option to download an older version of the Netflix app there, but that didn't work either. Finally, I called Netflix's customer support help desk line, but they told me they have no app link to send me and no control over which old editions Apple chooses to offer in the App Store, and that my best bet was to go ask you fine folks if you have any possible solutions.
(The reason I can't simply upgrade from my current setting of iOS 6.1.4 is that when Apple released iOS 7.0, even with adjustments to the color contrast, the reduced motion feature enabled, and sunglasses on, using my iPhone 5 for more than 5 minutes at a time gave me projectile-vomit-inducing migraines that lasted 24 hours each time. I'm disabled so I use my iPhone for pretty much everything, though I would say about 95% of my usage time is watching movies and TV shows on apps like Netflix for entertainment -- distraction is a huge part of my pain control plan, because so few medications help me -- because it's more convenient than using my laptop in bed, both in terms of distance to available power outlets and in terms of how I'm able to position my disabled body most comfortably. So I'm not just being a stupid stubborn girl here, I just couldn't make iOS 7.0 work for my disabled body and I don't currently have the financial resources to trade my iPhone 5 in and go buy an Android smartphone that does work for me...though I'm increasingly suspicious that this may be my only option.)
I tried downloading older Netflix apps compatible with iOS 6.1.4 in various public forums online as one of my friends recommended, but when I moved the old Netflix app into my iTunes Library, it kept asking me for the password of the original iTunes account that downloaded the app in order to access it and sync it to my iPhone 5. And I haven't been lucky, no one has been using their username or "password" as the password. I have yet to find a download link offer the username/password combo in the details for new downloaders, so if any of you have an old version of the Netflix app that's compatible with iOS 6.1.4 and want to share your username/password combo with me (after which you should change your password for safety, obviously), I couldn't possibly be more grateful.

Have you rendered both iOS 7 and iOS 8 (both of which will work on your iPhone 5) out of the question entirely without trying every possible configuration? The animations can be disabled entirely, if that's the problem. And if the whiter-brighter user interface is the problem, there's reverse-contrast modes that darken everything. You can expose accessibility controls to gain immediate access to these functions to toggle them on and off. I guess my point is you may have decided against upgrading the OS based on an early experience with iOS 7 when Apple has since made changes in later revisions to address some of the usability complaints.
Now, Apple's instructions for downloading older versions of apps is to do so from the Purchased list, not from the app's product page.
See here:
Install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X - Apple Support
Let us know how that works for you.

Why doesn't the "more like this" section offer suggestions anymore in the netflix app?

In the netflix app there is an area labeled "More like this" and it usually show suggestions of other movies. After the last ATV update, it just shows "More like this..." but it doesn't show any movie suggestions. When I spoke with netflix, they said the problem was with Apple since they design the netflix app.

I would also like to know why the suggestions are missing. It seems to work when you select movies outside netflix.

Netflix app not listed in the App Store

Hey, I am a costumer of Netflix and they told me there is a Netflix app available in the app store. The app is made by Netflix, I searched for the app by entering the word "netflix" in the search box. the only apps the came up were upgrades to the basic app made by other coder writers. Those app can not work without the app made by Netflix.
Is it possible to download the app someother way, or to upload it back to the app store?
I am using Iphone 4, running 4.3.1 iOS.
I am traveling with the phone with out my own computer.
I would very much appreciate your help in the matter,
Thank you,
Asaf.

Hi Madhu,
Once you deploy your App, The App will get deployed to the App web rather host web. That is reason you will not be able to find the app either in App part or webpart section of host web.

Netflix App not displaying video on TV

I have a iPod Touch running 4.0.2 OS with a Belkin composite AV cable (model # F8Z361-06). When I try to view a movie with the Netflix app, I get sound but no audio on the TV. YouTube works fine so I am assuming this is not a problem on the setup of the TV or cable.
Is this a known problem? Are there any settings in the Touch that could correct this behavior?
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!

video out seems to be disabled for the netflix app from the iphone and ipod's, though it works from the ipad. My hunch is they have this disabled on purpose to get people to buy the apple-tv product which does netflix.

What's the best netflix app for watching Netflix on an itouch?

There seem to be several Netflix apps available. I want one that will allow me to see my Instant Queue list and watch movies/shows on my itouch.
What's the best one?

I don't believe any of the third-party apps allow you to view a Netflix movie. The developer terms for Netflix actually prohibit other apps from providing playback; the app is only allowed to launch Netflix' own player (and that only on desktop systems). Third-party apps may, however, provide alternative, and perhaps better, ways to find and queue movies than does the Netflix app.
Regards.

Spotlight has stopped working properly. Even when a known file is entered (with full file name) in search, it fails to find it. Any ideas?

Spotlight has stopped working properly. Even when a known file is entered (with full file name) in search, it fails to find it. It finds some things, but is not to be depended upon. Any ideas?

Try reindexing spotlight: Spotlight: How to re-index folders or volumes - Apple Support
If you still have problems, open Console app, select All Messages, then search for mds in the search field. Then search for mdworker. See if there are any messages indicating it is having problems with certain files.
You can also delete the index altogether and cause it to reindex with a command in Terminal. I have always assumed the method above will do the same, but I'm not certain. You must run this command while logged into an admin account. Copy the whole line and paste it into Terminal.
sudo mdutil -E /
sudo temporarily elevates your privileges and will ask for your password. When you type it in, there won't be any response in the Terminal. Just type it and hit return.

Netflix app error - Please make sure network connectivity and date and time are accurate

Am getting this error message when trying to view instant movies via ipad2 or iphone. Anyone have this error? I can't connect to Netflix via either device - I've tried unistalling & re-installing Netflix app on both devices. I am connected to the internet via our home network and date & time are correct on all devices & home computer - any other setting I'm missing? I didn't have any of these problems before I installed the new iOS5 on my devices. Netflix said it's an apple operating setting that needs to be modified.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

HI Jason,
I feel for you. That's a lot of work!
How large is the partition you tried to create using BootCamp for Windows?
And how much free disk space is on the MacBook startup disk?
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 10% to 15% free disk space at all times.
Just in case, check the Mac startup disk for errors.
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your start up disk and click Restart

Netflix App doesn't exist in South America

The service itself arrived to LatAm last month, and it works great, but the IOS app doesnt' appear in the chilean app store.
This is ludicrous; I can watch Netflix movies in my android phone, but I can't do it in my iPad.
Any idea when is the app going to appear in the app store?

Apple doesn't make the apps, but they lock the access to certain apps in certain countries. Netflix does operate in Chile (I have my account and I pay my monthly fee) and it works in every other device I own.
The only thing Apple needs to do is to include South America in the list of allowed stores for the Netflix app. It should take some clicks on the trackpad of the right person's computer.
