Sky mobile tv
Just got the n97 mini and cant connect to sky mobile.My internet works and bbc iplayer works but the app for sky mobile fails to connect. I got told by a lad in phones 4 u that he had the same problem on his x6,that some times it works and other times it does not.my subscription shows i have the tv package but even with all the right connections will not connect.
Can anyone help before i throw it out the window.
sigh If only....but imagine the uproar from the digi subscribers.
Having said that, I use the app practically every other night and is well worth it.

Can anyone help with iPlayer and Sky Mobile?
Ok, I'm so close to giving up with this useless phone. There are 3 apps on my N97 which give me a constant headache.
BBC iPlayer
Sky Mobile*
YouTube
*I should point out that I only use Sky Mobile to set recordings on my Sky+. I do not use it for, nor have any desire to use it for actually watching Mobile TV.
All of these apps work absolutely fine over my home WiFi network. It's when I try to use them over 3G (my Vodafone Live! connection) that I start running in to trouble.
All 3 give me connection problems, errors, and simply refuse to load half the time when on 3G. I got so annoyed I just did a hard reset the other week, and magically all three started working again. However, now 2 of them are failing me again. YouTube (touch wood) is working fine at the moment, but iPlayer and Sky Mobile just aren't.
iPlayer sometimes works. But sometimes I get script errors (unable to load content), and sometimes it says something about checking my connection settings. I wouldn't mind but it's not actually possible to access any options for the iPlayer. Even in application settings there are no options you're able to set.
Sky Mobile simply flat out refuses to work ever on 3G. But it did after I did a hard reset for a couple of weeks, now it just stopped working! It wont even load. It just gives the error message 'Unable to connect to network - please check connection settings" or something along those lines.
I've tried so many different things. Tried setting my internet connections to 'always ask', tried setting it to default to Vodafone Live! all the time, tried setting my video streaming settings to WAP, all sorts. Every combination I can think of.
I just can't wait to get rid of this phone. I've put so many people off buying one. They see it and think it's all swish and cool, and I just say 'Don't. You'll regret it'. I can't wait for my contract to be up so I can upgrade to an iPhone now Vodafone have got them.
Can anyone help with these problems? Thanks in advance, but I don't hold out much hope...About iPlayer.
Have a chat with Vodaphone. Streaming iPlayer over 3G IS allowed on Vodaphone contract, unlike my O2 contract. As long as your contract allows it, and you have the correct AP address, it should be fine. Vodaphone should be able to give you the setting.
Mine only works over Wlan.
FWIW, "... streaming over 3G is not currently available on iPhone handsets on any mobile network".
p.s. Just to be clear. You say "Tried setting my internet connections to 'always ask', tried setting it to default to Vodafone Live!".
iPlayer uses the Nokia browser "Web". So that's where you should make the setting "Ask when needed". It should then offer you the choice of whatever you've set in Destinations> Internet> then select whatever you've chosen as your GPRS connection.(as advised, or sent to you by Vodaphone). -
Connecting iPod to TV to play Sky Mobile TV
I downloaded the Sky Mobile TV application to my 3rd generation iPod Touch with the intention of playing the sport on my tv using an Apple Compositive AV cable.
My issue is this:
If i play a movie etc i can play it through my tv so i know its not where i connected the cable. But when i play the SMtv application, only the sound comes up on the screen. No video.
Any suggestions?You can't view applications on a television, only video.

Hi,
I recently purchased the Composite AV Cable from the Apple store after being informed that if a video is being played on the iPhone then that video will be displayed on whatever the AV cables are plugged into. I am havng trouble with running Sky Mobile TV and being able to view it on my TV.
Does anyone have any info about this?
CheersCant do that mate, can only play YouTube, Videos stored on your iPhone and view pictures taken on your phone. I tried this also lol.

Sky mobile for nokia 6234?
Hello everyone
The Nokia 6233 is listed on Sky as compatible with Sky Mobile on TV yet the 6234 is not. I've checked with Sky and they confirm this but don't know why. I thought they were supposed to be the same 'phone, except the 6234 is specific to vodafone. Has anyone any idea why Nokia hasn't notified the 6234 as available for Sky mobile? Or if there is a way of etting it on the 6234 after all?Seems crazy seeing as they're practically the same phone apart from 6234 being Vodafone branded
Owned: Nokia 3510i, Nokia 3120, Nokia 6230i, Nokia 6233, Nokia N73, Nokia N82.
Current: Nokia N900! -

Hi
Up till the latest update the Sky mobile worked well on my iphone. However on 4 Feb Sky updated this app and since then the info and channel icons on loading page & programe info are missing. Looking at the Reviews I am not alone, as it appears that there is a problem with this update on iphone using OS 3.1.3 (as my iphone is a early model I can not download a later version.
Unfortunanly as I did a back up to my computer I can not revert to older version of this app, therefore dose any one know of a way to get the previous version back.
Also though I have hered that Sky say that will do a further update to fix this problem it has now been 3 weeks and nothing has happened dose any know when this might happen
The way things are I do not see why I should continue paying £8 a month for app that dose not work right, so unless it is fixed by when this months sub runs out I will unsubsribe (I have already stopped the auto resub), untill either sky fix the problem or I have saved enough, (using the £8 a month I am not paying scy to get a ipod OS4I also have the same problem and have been told by Sky that this functionality is not available in the upgraded app and that I can not revert to the old one! Very very frustrating... Have you got the upgraded app - if so, interesting that you mention it works sometimes as that suggests functionality does exist...?

Does anyone know if the Sky mobile application will be developed on the N900? very handy app particularly for those in the UK that had a sky box.
Bagz RulesThe N900 is not very DRM friendly and its user base is far too small for sky to be dealing with..
I would be stunned if it were even on their radar!
Maybe Maemo6 might interest them as they might be able to protect their content.. but in the mean time, it's probably a no go for them
---edit---
and here was me thinking that a lack fo DRM is a good thing..
I use a 2001 Tivo with my sky box.. think sky+ but it's from 2001!!! The great thing is, my N900 (and other media players such as my Archos 705) sync with my Tivo via wifi.. so when I get home, new tv shows get uploaded.. It's custom software, but it beats the **bleep** out of DRM catastrophes!!
I look forward to Virgin's plan to re-introducing the Tivo to the UK some time this year after some 9 years away! -

Hello, I have recently been in touch with sky regarding problems with my sky mobile TV app on my iPhone 6, ios 9. I only get a little area of my screen working with this app, when I contacted sky and reported this I got told someone would be in touch with me about it between 48/72 hours, however I have had 2 missed calls one on the same day and another before 48hours whilst at work, if that is sky getting back to me thank you that was a very quick response, however you haven't yet been back in touch or emailed me with your findings, I'm pretty gutted about this as I would like to use the app to watch football. Please sky let me know what's going on? Thanks
Sky don't respond to posts as this is a customer to customer forum only.
You will have to contact Sky directly to progress your issue. -
Since I upgraded the firmware to v50 I have been unable to receive mobile TV as I was before, keep on getting the message that I'm not in a 3G area even when I clearly am. Has anyone else had this problem or know of a solution to rectify?

How can i restore my mobile sky tv on iphone
Hi I have had sky mobile tv on my iphone since it first came out and have not had any problems, I switched on my iphone to watch a football match and it said
subscriptions lapsed. I can only think that when sky came to collect the subscription the account was closed as i had changed banks in December. I have tried
to download the app again but i am having trouble.When i get to the point of buying the app it says CONFIRM and i press CONFIRM it then says INSTALLING
and then a pop up comes up and says (in app purchases not allowed). I have spoken to an apple advisor who say the problem is not with apple but with sky
who i have contacted several times but i stil have not solved the problem. Can anyone out there help.
ThanksBack to the beginning...
What do you mean by "documents"? Word or Pages files, spreadsheet files?
Also, on your device, in Settings>iCloud, you have to have an on/off setting for Docments&Data. If not what kinds of entries do you have on that screen? -
Sky Sports app throgh AV Cable
Is it possible to play streams from the Sky Mobile TV App through an AV cable?
If so, which cable would be recommended for a high quality picture (would be playing through a 42' LCD Samsung)
Thanks.Does the description of the app say that it supports video out? An app has to specifically be configured to use the video-out option. I see nothing in the app description on their website that says it supports video out.

Is there a sky player app for the N8? i can see reference for the N97 but nothing in the OVI store for the sky player
anyone know?hi there i have a N8 and couldnt find the sky mobile app to use on my mobile as I wanted to use the sky remote so i could program my sky+ box to record when I'm not at home. After trying Ovi store there isnt one on there for the N8 only the N97 so I looked up wot the message above said try looking for the x6 sky mobile and I found one that works on my N8 so thought I'd share it with everyone else. It is abit slow but it works for me here is the link and it asks what phone you have and I clicked NOKIA N97 as it dosnt give you the N8 option. I clicked on DOWNLOAD TO YOUR PHONE. then a box comes up with a website you have to on your phones internet broswer called (1mobile.com) and it gives you a code to put in when it opens up on your phone and it downloads straight to your phone and it works no problem for me. Let me know how you get on below is link
Thanks elle
