Netflix dosen't work with website restrictions switched on.  What urls need to be defined ? thanks !

Trying to get Netflix app to work on daughters ipad while using restrictions.  However, when websites are limited to defined URL Netflix app dosen't work.  Does anyone know what urls need to be defined to allow the netflix app to function with web restrictions switched on.  Thanks !

I have the same issue. Tried all kinds of variations of the netflix urls (movies.netflix.com, signup.netflix.com, http://www.netflix.com, https://netflix.com etc....) couldn't get it working right... Did a mess of google searching and this thread is the only one I could find that addressed my exact issue. Called netflix and Apple. Apple was able to get it working (sort of, or temporarily....) They had me uninstall the app, then go under Settings -> General -> Reset -> Reset All Settings (make sure you know your network password for your wi-fi router before you do this, because you will need to reconnect to wi-fi because the password will get wiped out of the system memory) Supposedly, this will not remove any data, just reset to factory settings. After that was done, they had me shut down the iPad, then restart the iPad. Then reconnect to wi-fi and re-set all of the Restrictions settings I had set up originally. I left in five variations of the netflix urls because when I tried these steps with just one url it wouldn't work. I tried some testing, but couldn't figure which ones were needed so I left all five in the allowed websites section under restrictions. (movies.netflix.com, signup.netflix.com, http://www.netflix.com, https://www.netflix.com, https://movies.netflix.com). Then I re-installed the netflix app and viola! it worked! I did a shutdown and restart of the iPad while I had the apple technician on the phone to make sure the app would still work after a restart and it did! Awesome.... but, after playing with the iPad some, the app would not work again! UGGGGGGGHHHHHH! I don't think I did anything specific to cause it to stop working and repeated the procedure at least 4 times with the same result, so I'm not sure what the problem is and I don't have days to spen on this.... So, I then did a bunch more testing and here's something that seems to work all the time, although it's a bit of a pain in the arse... When the netflix app is not working, go under Settings -> General -> Restrictions -> Websites and set the "Allowed Websites" to All Websites. Then close out of settings and launch the netflix app. (give it a couple of minutes to get past the red screen with spinning wheel if it doesn't open right away). Now, once the netflix app has been launched, go back and set the "Allowed Websites" back to Specific Websites Only and the netflix app will work at least until the next reboot of the iPad... The only problem with this is that you will lose your list of Specific Websites everytime you do this... For me it's not a huge problem, because my son is only 7 and doesn't really "Surf" the web, so I don't really have to add websites all the time. Hope I helped some Stecun... Hopefully netflix and apple will take steps to make this work better in a future update.... If anyone out there has a more permanent solution, it would be greatly appreciated! Where's all the computer science moms and dads at out there?
For reference, I'm using an iPad mini (not retina) running ios7.0.4 (11B554a). There were no other apps installed besides netflix and the factory installed ones at the time of my testing....

    The lack of security updates requires me to update any old OS. Unless you never connect to anything on the Internet with the computer OR you never have anything to protect on your computer running such a computer leaves you open to theft, fraud, etc. The major problem with Mavericks and soon with OS X.X is unfamiliarity. Sure they have features we don’t like. But I bet so did the one you are running, when you upgraded to it.
    Having said that I really got miffed when I was required to update my TV to work with digital signals. I have no trouble telling people to upgrade their computer, but ask me to upgrade my TV those were fighting words.

    Contact the wireless carrier to which the iPhone is locked and
    ask that carrier if they provide unlocking and if you qualify.

  • Fast dvd copy dosen't work with leopard

    Fast dvd copy dosen't work with leopard. Does anyone have the same problem and do you have any suggestion to making it work? I have the current version 4.06 and I have written to Velor the software people, but no answer yet.

  • Better privecy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers?

    Question
    better privacy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers? edit
    Details

    As a temporary workaround, I believe this Adobe management page allows you to clear your "Flash cookies": [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html Adobe - Flash Player : Settings Manager - Website Storage Settings panel] (hosted on macromedia.com -- Macromedia was the original developer of Flash).
    Regarding the script error, if I'm reading the script correctly, it is related to accessing your Flash cookies directory. It seems the publisher's support forum is not currently available for searching, but that might be a good next step.
    In the meantime, could you check whether the script has the correct location for your Flash cookies directory? If you can't access Tool > BetterPrivacy, you could check here:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''bpr''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) There should be a bolded setting named '''extensions.bprivacy.DataDir''' which looks approximately like the following:
    C:\Users\''yourWindowsUsername''\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia
    Do you have a similar value? If you paste the path used by BetterPrivacy into a Windows Explorer window, does it open? Also, click a couple levels in the folder, can you see:
    Flash Player \ #SharedObjects
    If the value is wrong, right-click the wrong value and choose Reset. BetterPrivacy should update the value the next time you try to access it.
    If the value is blank, you could try inserting a sensible value and see whether that helps.
    Any luck?

  • TS1253 I have a printer epson TX210, but it doesn't work with my time-capsule. What need to do?

    I have a printer epson TX210, but it doesn't work with my time-capsule. What need to do?

    What have you tried?
    You are going to get nowhere quick with the 6.1 utility in Mountain Lion if this is the only OS you have available.
    Look up how to install 5.6 utility under ML. At least then you can see printers. That is assuming you are trying to use USB.
    Has this worked ever on Mountain Lion? Did you download the drivers for that printer for ML?
    Plug it into a computer directly.. does it work? If it doesn't work locally it sure will not work via the network.

  • New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3 says it needs 11.1 but I cannot load that on my macbook using OSX 10.5.8 any way around this?

    New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3, says it needs 11.1 or newer but I cannot load that onto my MacBook running on OSX 10.5.8 - is there anyway around this?

    No. If your MacBook has an Intel processor you can update to OSX 10.6.8 and then install the latest iTunes.
    A 5G iPod with iOS 7 requires that if you have a Mac you have OSX 10.6.8 or later.
    You can get 10.6.8 here:

    iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • I have lightroom 4 and it doesn't work with d4s raw images? what can I do?

    i have lightroom 4 and it doesn't work with d4s raw images? what can I do?

    That model begin to be supported only in the very latest version of Lightroom, version 5.4. You will either need to upgrade Lightroom, or else use the latest version of the free Adobe DNG converter (version 8.4) to create digital negative copies of your raw images. Then you can import those DNG files into the Lightroom that you have now. The choice is yours.

  • I have an iphone 4s with ios7. Does it work with 4g? If not what i can do to upgrade it?

    I have an iphone 4s with ios7. Does it work with 4g? If not what i can do to upgrade it?

    The version of iOS is irrelevant to 4G connectivity.
    The iPhone 4S supports HSPA which is considered 4G by some carriers, it is NOT an LTE capable device.
    If you want a device that supports LTE, you will need to upgrade to an iPhone 5 or newer.  LTE capability requires hardware that does not exist in the 4S or older iPhones.

    Hi Anis289,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    As a first step, I would suggest restarting and/or resetting the iPhone:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

    Power cycle the cable modem.. you may try leaving it off 5min.. might be enough.. sometimes you need 15min or even longer.. Followed by power cycle of the AE.
    Nothing else should be connected to the modem.. except the router that will get the public IP as they only hand out ONE>

    Hi Susan,
    I checked using the email you provided, and there's no history of any orders under that email address. (Then, I removed your email address from you post, since this is a public forum and it's best not to broadcast contact information.)
    I'll message you privately, and you can send along your email from Adobe if you'd like.

  • Does a laptop with Intel HD 4400 graphics work with creative cloud software, or do I NEED Nvidia or AMD?

    Does a laptop with Intel HD 4400 graphics work with creative cloud software, or do I NEED to have Nvidia or AMD graphics

    Creative Cloud has MANY programs Explore Adobe desktop apps | Adobe Creative Cloud so the answer is most likely going to be specific to the program
    Work... yes... work WELL with something like Premiere Pro... no
