I have a netflix (Canada) account and the live stream from Netflix is not supported on the broweser
messge from Netflix
Our appologies - streaming is not supported for your operating ssytem.
Note that your computer Internet browser is fully capatible with adding files to the Instant Queue for watching later on a compatible devices
then lsits the requirements teh standard Windows and Mac jargon.
I woudl like to see RIm adress this with a fix that would allow live stream from netflix..

Wrong, the Playbook browser does indeed meet the requirements to simply play live video streams (just not through Silverlight)..
I use it with Amazon video streaming, and other websites, such as my church's live services broadcast.
Can't wait for Netflix and Playbook to get it straight, too.

Upgraded to Yosemite. Videos on Amazon Prime and Netflix crash frequently.

First time participant. Recently bought a Macbook Pro (early 2011) with an i5 processor. Laptop is in EXCELLENT condition. Upgraded memory from 4 gigs RAM to 8 gigs. The RAM is Mac certified, but not purchased from Apple. Running Yosemite 10.10.2. This laptop belonged to my son so I know the history of it. He had no problems watching videos when he was running previous OS X, up through Mavericks. It seems that once he upgraded to Yosemite, all **** has broken loose.
I am having a terrible trying to watch videos on Amazon Prime and Netflix. Sometimes it just locks up, and the rainbow wheel spins. Sometimes everything crashes and gives a kernel panic message. Other times it shuts the video down, and says that the plugin (Silverlight and Flash, both) have failed. The most worrisome is the kernel panic shutdown. I have tried everything, including:
Perused just about every discussion of same of similar problems on Google/Bing.
Re-setting the cable modem and wifi router.
Deleted Flash and Silverlight and reloaded fresh copies.
Adjusted settings in Netflix to the lowest quality and tried both Silverlight and Flash on Amazon Prime.
Tried three browsers, Safari, Chrome, and Firefox.
Adjusted the settings in all three browsers to try and optimize watching videos.
Started up in safe mode to see if the problems clear.
Pulled the RAM upgrades and put in the original 4 gig sticks.
Signed out from the owner account and signed in as Guest.
Called Apple customer care and spent over two hours on the phone, only for the supervisor - yup, supervisor! - to tell me he was stumped and would have to kick it up to the technical folks. Still haven't heard back from them.
After all these attempts to fix the problems, and then trying each "fix" individually, it is still virtually impossible to watch videos on Amazon Prime and Netflix without some type of crash part way through the video. None of these things happen on YouTube, by the way, or any other video sites I have tried. The only thing I haven't tried is starting all over again with a fresh install of Yosemite and all of its components. Really don't want to do that because I am afraid of losing the Microsoft Office 2010 Pro I have loaded. Paid a lot of money for a one-time use license.
Please, does anyone have a suggestion I haven't tried? I'm to the point of sacrificing chickens and invoking the spirit of Steven Jobs! Look forward to hearing some ideas.

Direct from Microsoft is the only safe place to get Silverlight http://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/

Are you getting any messages about date and time.
Have you tried restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Are you connected to the network correctly.

E1500 wireless router having problems streaming video and netflix

We got a new E1500 router 2 nights ago. The internet works fine, but it has big trouble streaming videos and Netflix, those types of things. I have changed my MTU setting and all the settings suggested in the "Guide Me" section. My drivers are up to date on my router and on my pc. It just started happening with this router. We had a Netgear before and we have no problems streaming at all. I have rebooted and reset the router and cable modem.
Does anyone else have some suggestions I can try?
Thanks,
Debbie

The concern that you have is for both wired and wireless or just for the wireless? If it is for wireless then try these troubleshooting steps:
A] With the help of Cisco Connect Software (if at all you have installed the router with the help of this software)
1] Open the software and go to the option which says "Router Settings"
2] Then click on the option which says "Advanced Settings" which will take you to the router's configuration page.
3] Then go to the Wireless tab, change Channel width to 20 MHz only and change the Channel to 6, 9, 11...Save the settings..
B] If you haven't installed Cisco Connect then you can log on to the router's user interface using it's default IP address in the browser which is 192.168.1.1 and type in 'admin' as the password leaving the username field blank. This will take you to the router's web interface and then follow steps as mentioned above to make the changes.
Then check the status of streaming video and netflix.

HDCP error with Hulu and Netflix

I've had a Apple TV 2 for a few years now and it has worked great.. Two days ago it stopped playing Hulu and Netflix and Vimeo.. All worked fine up until then.. It continues to give me a HDCP error when I try to use them.. It will try to load the program then after 4secs I get the error.. I have changed nothing on my set up.. I have reset and restored, unplugged the HDMI cable and power cable as well.. No luck.. The only thing it will play is content I purchase or have purchased from Apple.. Is anyone else having this issues.. Any help would be appreciated!!

I would try testing with another tv to verify the problem is with the tv and not with the atv

Youtube and Netflix must verify license

Hello, I was on my ps4 today and when I turned it on, I went to play Cod AW when all my dlcs and other items had not been there. I went to Playstation store and everything was not downloaded anymore. Now that is fine, but my Youtube and Netflix were not able to redownload as it said "Cannot connect to the server, cannot connect to server to verify license". I verified my license and it still did not work.

there's maintenance going on. look in support threads. It was scheduled to have finished but these things can over-run.

There's an issue currently that a lot of us are experiencing in that we all get the error message "iTunes is currently unavailable; please try later"
It's an issue with Apple and we're awaiting an update re this
I've posted a topic in regards to this after having a long conversation with Apple support this morning and will be receiving a call from their tech team tomorrow to run through it further
As it stands iTunes cannot be accessed via ATV's and nor can it be streamed via AirPlay from iTunes to the ATV
However I can access all films/iCloud content via my Mac Mini with no issues!

Firefox is not loading specific websites for me. Sites like Facebook, Ebay, Google, and Netflix refuse to open, or even acknowledge me pressing the Enter key

Firefox is not loading specific websites for me. Sites like Facebook, Ebay, Google, and Netflix refuse to open, or even acknowledge me pressing the Enter key when I type in the address or click a link to that site. Practically every other site works perfectly fine. I did not change any settings or download any new addons prior to this problem, it just started happening. I have done everything I can find in the forums; resetting firefox, clearing cache and cookies, making network settings use no proxy, reinstalling, and today I uninstalled Firefox, updated and scanned my computer with all 3 software I use (AVG, Malwarebytes, and Spybot), found no issues, restarted my computer, and reinstalled a freshly downloaded Firefox setup without importing any settings or doing anything other than a totally clean install, and still nothing. Chrome and IE still are able to access every site perfectly fine. I have no idea what the issue is or how to fix it, as I've tried everything I know and could research.

Hi There,
Sorry to hear of your issue. I found a great article for you to read and explain how to fix your issue. I hope this hope :)

Thank you everyone for your suggestions and help. Ended up logging out of my apple ID account. Of note, when I did I did a quick test and checked out both the movies and tv show options, and it all worked perfectly. I then logged back in, and now all my purchased and rentals are available which makes sense. I guess with the update there was some weird bit of trons that required one to log out then back in. Probably doing a rest in between may not hurt for some. Thanks again for all the assistance. Cheers.
It looks like there is a Apple doc for this problem here -> Apple TV: Unable to access Movies, TV Shows, or other iTunes features after updating

App Store, Safari, and Netflix Problems, please help

Im showing a strong wifi connection with my ipad 2, but when trying to access itunes or the app store, the pages wont fully load. Some of the thumbnail images will only show ? Marks and sometimes page wont even load at all until i try it again. Same happens in safari and netflix. My iphone 4 is working fine however when just on wifi. Ive tried resetting network, hard resets and a bunch of other tricks, but nothing working. Some apps are working fine, but why would this be happening with itunes, safari, and netflix? Does anyone have a solution?

I see you wrote your question at 1:05 AM. Chances are it didn't get read much as some of us who spend a great deal of time here helping people, just might have been asleep. Sarcasm won't help you much.
Now, have you actually fully closed the apps, then reboot? To fully close the apps, go to your home page, then double tap your home button to bring up the task bar (most recently used apps). Hold your finger on any of the recently used apps until they all start to jiggle. You'll see a on the top left of each app. Touch the minus on each of the apps you're having trouble with to fully close them. Then touch your home button once more to stop the apps from jiggling and then again, to return to your home page.
Then, do the hard reset (in case you didn't do it properly). Press and hold BOTH the home and power buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.
Try the apps after your iPad comes back up and hopefully, they will work correctly.

Hi! I'm from Brazil and I'm having troubles with subtitles. Watching movies from iTunes and Netflix, the subtitles shows yellow, too small and into gray boxes! I'm having this kind of trouble with my iPad also.

Solution found.
I am a Vodafone customer and installed the Vodafone app which asks you to turn off wifi connection on installation as it needs to communicate with their servers over 3G.
After restoring the iPad via iTunes this is the only app that I did nor re-install and seems to be too much of coincidence that while in full screen view watching films my wifi is switched off and 3G data connection is established 10 - 15 minutes into a fiilm and my data allowance gets eaten up!
I would also get push notifications from Vodafone saying "my daily data usage was almost used" with this app installed.
Have tested and on 3rd time watching sky go still wifi is on after 30 mins.
DO NOT INSTALL VODAFONE APP FROM THE APP STORE.

YouTube and Netflix not working on iPad4

In the past couple of days, both YouTube and Netflix have stopped working on my iPad4. The iPad can still access the Internet, but YouTube keeps returning an "Error loading. Tap to retry" message. Netflix just comes back with "Connection error." Here are some of the things I've already tried...
1. Rebooted
2. Deleted and then reinstalled both apps
3. Updated iPad software
4. Reconnected to my router
Any help out there?

I also keep getting the same "Cannot connect to YouTube" message after upgrading to version 3.0, when iPhone could connect to youtube before the 'upgrade'....
Anyone else, and any idea if it can be fixed?
