Netflix in the UK unsupported
As Netflix is new to the UK, the option on my Apple TV is unavailable even though I have an active acount and can view on all my other devices.
Will I need to wait for an update from Apple, or is there a way to "force" a logon on an Apple TV?
Thanks...
Hi Winston,
I've pulled the cord, reset, pressed menu and the down arrow... and still no netflix
under internet, I only have: iTunes Live, NHL, MLB. TV, WSJ Live, You Tube, Vimeo, Podcasts, Mobile Me, Flickr, Radio...
I'm on 4.4.4 (3330) in the Uk on Virgin Media, what am I doing wrong!?

I'm getting messages on Apple TV that netflix and the itunes store are currently unavailable. This can't be a coincidence. Also, the iTunes store is working fine on my Mac, the message is only on the apple TV. Does anyone come across this frequently?
1. An explanation for what? There is indeed a support number (which you can find on this page in "Contact Us" and you are limited to one support call in the first 90 days and if you have the AppleCare you have more than that available, so I'm not sure what you are whinning about (and it is whinning, trust me).

However, since I wrote that I've also found this link pretty well explaining why firewire is the only way to go as well (it's about video but the same principles apply to the iPod:

3. Your computer is constantly changing whether you know it or not. Do you not apply any MS upgrades (or have them automatically applied for you?) Do you not have any antivirus on your machine (which applies its own upgrades)? Do you not, ever, ever, ever, open any email message, or download that cute little movie your friend sent you, or plug in any other device (like a digital camera or flashcard reader) or any of the other hundreds of things that change the computer environment.
It would be tempting to conclude a priori that the update you applied is now the problem, but if so, how do you explain the millions of others who apply the update without issues? The difference is in the software and settings on the witches brew that is a PC. So in a sense you are right in that the old firmware worked with the mess that is your computer and now the new one doesn't -- but it ain't up to Apple to fix your computer, and impossible for them to control the environment (oh, I guess unless you buy a Mac -- "coincidentally" Mac's use firewire for the iPod :>)
I dunno -- when 90% of all issues (100% of all connection issues) can be solved with the Adaptec 4300 I tend to have a lot less patience with folks. If you want to use the mess that is USB then you'll just have to deal with the fact that MS screwed it up big time and become more knowledgable on how to handle the problems. -
I have been using my apple tv to access netflix for several months. It suddenly stopped working. When I try to go to netflix from the menu, it says "accessing netflix" but never does. I can access you tube just fine, but just can't get to netflix. Any ideas. I have unplugged everything and waited but nothing helped.
Update software. If that doesn't work try resetting. Mine started working after the update.

I think I have a 1st gen ATV. The other evening I got the ubiquitous "Error-HDCP content etc, try again" message. When I logged back in later, the Movies tab was gone from the menu screen as was Netflix under the Internet tab. I have tried reset, restore, unplugging etc and nothing works, any thoughts?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you had/have Netflix, you have the Apple TV 2.
Check your iTunes Store location is set to the correct location. -

Can u stream movies from netflix on the iphone 5 on to a tv without a cord?
Can u stream movies from netflix on the iphone 5 on to a tv without a cord?
Unfortunatly with movies in the iCloud it physically gets downloaded to your device. I am thinking some of the reasons for this is because of possible changes in bandwidth speed on 3G or 4G networks well as coverage for those networks. Nothing would be worse when watching a movie that I am streaming I the car and I loose cellular coverage. The good news is with it downloading when you are done watching it, delete it and download another one.

From the Apple TV, I chose netflix from the main menu. I then chose the show Prison Break. Only 22 episodes from Season 1 are displayed. When chosing NetFlix from my Blue Ray player I see all the episodes.
Those are all the episodes for that season, if you want to view another season you need to select it

My 10.6.8 macbook pro's DVD player won't play a movie from Netflix. The DVD does play on a 10.5 mb pro. So DVD is ok. Message says "not permitted" when I click play. Is there a compatibility issue? Or something else?
Hello:
This is not an area I have much experience in......I rarely insert DVDs and I have never had a similar problem.
When the DVD is in the drive (and DVD players is open) click on File>get disk info.

Netflix became available in the Caribbean and Latin America recently and I can stream it on my Ipod touch . I recently had a bad experience with a blu-ray player while trying to stream Netflix. I got a message saying Netflix only supports newer versions of this device outside of the United States and Canada. I wanted to make sure this is not the case with the apple tv before purchasing. Does anyone know for sure if Netflix supports the apple TV outside of the US and Canada?
"I got a message saying Netflix only supports newer versions of this device outside of the United States and Canada"
sounds like an error msg that the firmware of your blueray player is required for compatability -

Steps I follow:
1. turn phone on
2. ensure signal is strong (att)
3. launch netflix
4. select and play video
5. watch video play for several minutes
6. plug in digital av adaptor with HDMI cable (not yet connected to television)
7. ensure video continues to play
8. connect HDMI cable to television (television not yet powered on)
9. ensure video continues to play
10. turn on Television
Result: video stops, results in "NO SIGNAL" as in no bars
11. Turn off television signal comes back and video resumes play
Is Apple or netflix purposefuly blocking the signal?I should add that I see the video playing for about 30 seconds, everything looks and plays fine, then I get the "NO SIGNAL" and all att bars go away.
also, I'm using my phone istead of my laptop becuase I don't have internet service at home, wanted to just use my phone and it's unlimitted data plan to be able to watch netflix. -
We have a new iMac 2.9ghz and are running an airport extreme set up in house with several express entenders. The problem is that our son is streaming netflix and doing on line gaming and hogging all the band width. Time Warner tech suggested a hard wired ethernet connection to computer base sattion next to computer so that it can have direct conenction to internet. After much fishing of wire the connection worked great, but the wifi connection for the house is gone. I unplugged the ethernet connection and everything is fine. I read the articles about adjusting network preferences, but the issue seems to be in the extreme not in the computer. the connection goes from cable modem to extreme, from extreme to house and to hard wired conenction to other computer. Do we need a splitter before the extreme?
No. Something else is going on.
Your son may be hogging all the bandwidth but your wireless network should never simply disappear. Moreover, if your son isn't doing anything the available bandwidth for other devices should remain unaffected.
I suspect that something is miswired, and from what you describe I suspect that link is between the Extreme and the "other computer".
The way to accomplish what you propose is
Modem > Ethernet cable to Extreme's WAN port
Extreme's LAN ports > wired Ethernet devices.
There should be nothing but an Ethernet cable linking an Extreme LAN port and any other wired device. If you run out of available LAN ports on the Extreme, you need to by an "Ethernet switch" - they are not expensive, but don't call it a "splitter" or you will only confuse yourself. The switch would be connected to one of the Extreme's LAN ports, and you would connect additional devices to it. You can also use one of your Expresses for that purpose, assuming it is the current generation model with two Ethernet ports. -
How do I change my profile in Netflix on the iPad mini
I Want to change my profile from one of my family members to mine but not the accounts just the profiles. I would love it if someone could please tell me how I can do that on my iPad mini for Netflix.
Quote below is from the Netflix support site https://help.netflix.com/en/node/10421
But I would contact Netflix for a definitive answer -- the "Current wait time" is less than one minute in the "Call Us" link at https://help.netflix.com/help
*You can add, edit, and delete profiles from the website, PS3/PS4, and the Windows 8 app. -
Why do I have bandwidth issues only with iTunes.?this is not the first time and its not common it's every time. I watch Netflix on a daily basis it may buffer in middle of something once or twice a day. From what I've read to send HD only needs around 5-8 Mbps I have 15 at my house I can nearly watch an iTunes movie with out it buffering about every 5 minutes.
If you are genuinely getting sustained 15 Mbps downloads iTunes content should play immediately and not stop/startl - the fact this is happening suggests an issue with your LAN or wider internet connection (or the AppleTV).
Netflix works differently - the image quality is rate adaptive and decreases as available speed drops, consequently I can play Netflix withing seconds whereas HD iTunes movies need to buffer for about 20 mins on my 4.5 Mbps connection.
