Stream amazon prime

How can I use the Apple TV to stream video from Amazon Prime?
thanks

On July 31, 2012, Amazon Prime added an iPad app to the iTunes store. This app allows the streaming of Amazon Prime videos to the iPad and through AirPlay to the AppleTV. This is the only method that I know of at the moment, I have been unable to find any other way on Google or otherwise.

Can i stream amazon prime to apple tv

Can I stream Amazon Prime using Apple TV?

If that's the case it's likely the content provider/Amazon is blocking the video component of Airplay.

HT204291 I cannot stream amazon prime to my tv? I can get sound but no video.

I am using my iPad and cannot stream amazon prime to the tv?
The sound comes thru but no video!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Websites and third party Apps need enabling before they will allow AirPlay of Video content. Some Website/App developers have not enabled their products, some simply haven't got around to it yet, others have stated that they won't be enabling AirPlay (likely as a result of licensing issues).
Amazon have blocked both basic AirPlay and mirroring.

BDP-S3100 won't stream Amazon Prime

If anyone else has had this specific problem and can shed some light I will be very grateful. This bluray player is about a year old. We've been using it to stream both Netflix and Amazon Prime for the past year. A few days ago we started having a problem with Amazon Prime. When the app starts it let's me browse for a show or movie without issue. I select what I want to watch and then it checks the internet connection. It reports the speed to be between 30 and 40 Mbps on average. The problem comes right before it would normally start to stream the video. It just sits there with the little wheel spinning, usually for about a minute before the message appears - "The network is down." I have checked to see if Amazon Prime is experiencing an outtage. When the problem first occurred it looked like maybe they were. One website showed numerous outtage reports for Amazon Prime right after Christmas. But currently there doesn't seem to be any widespread problem and I've not been able to stream for over a week now. My internet connection is fine. All other wired and wireless devices are not having any issues. I have reset my cable modem and router. This did not fix the problem. I have tried a wired and wireless connection to the bluray player. The problem exists both ways. I have reset the bluray player to its factory settings. This did not fix the problem. I have confirmed that I'm able to stream Amazon Prime on other devices using the same modem/router. We can stream Amazon Prime videos on our laptops without issues. That's everything I can think of that we've tried. I'm starting to wonder if the player has ****** out. It's just weird that I can browse online content, meaning the player is connecting to the internet, but when it tries to stream a video it fails.

This is just my personal theory, so please take it with a grain of salt. Sony got hacked right after Christmas and that's when the trouble started. At first it didn't make sense to me that this would be the cause because Amazon servers would be responsible for streaming my instant video, not Sony's. But it's rumored that Sony BD devices are routing through Sony services on the way to requesting streaming video from Amazon. If that is true (and I don't know if it is) then I wonder if Amazon put some additional security measures in place following the Sony hack. In other words, Amazon says "ok Sony, you obviously have some security issues so we are going to put the kybosh on requests for video coming through you". End result - Amazon Prime customers can't access streaming video through Sony's BD devices, but they can by just about any other means. Also, Sony BD devices continue to stream other services like Netflix and Hulu, but just not Amazon Prime. Fast forward a couple of weeks - Sony develops a system udpate that allows their Amazon Prime app to comply with Amazon's new security requirements. Sony BD device owners (like the poster above) perform the update and voila, they can stream Amazon Prime again. Again, that's just my theory. I have not heard any of the above from Sony or Amazon. But tonight I'm going to do the system update when I get home and see if it fixes my issues across the board. As of this morning it was still very random. One video willl play and the next won't.

Trying to stream Amazon Prime Free videos from Ipad via Mirroring to Apple TV

Trying to stream Amazon Prime Free videos from Ipad via Mirroring to Apple TV. Trailer plays fine. Real Movie plays audio only. Some error messahe that HD video can't be played over HDMI cable. I telling ya that 25 foot VGA cable is looking better and better. Apple TV tech the differrence had to be done at the time of encoding

Amazon blocks Airplay in encoding the movie. It's not the HDMI cable, or AppleTV for that matter.

Streaming Amazon Prime Video

I have an iPad 2 with iOS 8.1 and an Amazon Prime Instant Video subscription that I stream through the Amazon Instant Video App. Can anyone tell me if the Digital AV cable (30-pin to hdmi) will allow me to stream Amazon Prime Instant Videos on my tv by directly connecting my iPad2? I've heard some apps will only stream the audio to the tv with no picture.

HT4437 Why can't you stream Amazon Prime using Apple TV?

The whole reason I bought the Apple TV was to be able to stream from my ipad and my macpro to TV my Amazon Prime free movies. Now it looks like this is blocked. This seems outrageous. I told the sales person at the store what I wanted to do and they recommended the Apple TV. When I went back they did not know that Amazon Prime is blocked. What's up with this? Any chance that Amazon Prime will be able to be on seen on Apple TV any time soon?

Not sure if an app will be realeased, but you can stream Amazon Instant Videos from your computer to your Apple TV.

Does Apple plant on streaming Amazon Prime

A retina MBP will need HDMI on both ends.

HT202157 Will Apple add Amazon Prime Video Streaming to Apple TV

I am trying to find out if you can use Apple TV to stream Amazon Prime directly with out going through another device - ie Ipad Iphone - Computer - etc

Hi Cameron,
It doesn't appear that Apple TV is currently supported for Amazon Prime streaming. From the Amazon site:

Streaming video from amazon prime?

Anything new on watching streaming video from amazon prime on ipad2? It seems I can't do it because of the flash. I am still on iOS 4, does this matter? thanks!

I just bought the Splashtop streamer app that allows you to stream flash video from Safari to your iPad. I'm streaming Amazon Prime video content to my iPad using this app. It's not perfect though. There is some loss of frame rate for some reason, although this may be due to the way my wireless network is set up. You install "server" software on your iMac or whatever and then it streams from there to the iPad.

Using amazon prime

Can I use Apple TV and my IPad to stream Amazon Prime movies?

You would have to use mirroring, which requires a Mac from 2011 (or later) and OSX 10.8 (or later)

Can you use Amazon prime/instant video on a yoga?

Been thinking about signing up but need to know if it works on the yoga browser or chrome?
If I can only get it working my pc then its probably not worth it

I just found this, and am glad I did. Just purchased the Yoga 2 8in and was worried that I wouldn't be able to stream Amazon prime and have my Google stuff. Getting harder to find units that do both these days. No one wants to play with each other anymore.
I must have spent hours looking for a tablet that was fair priced and had decent specs with 2gig RAM AND was able to play Amazon and Google.
Well keep this page bookmarked and will refer to it when I get my new tab.

HT3819 video stream from amazon prime to my TV

i want to video stream from amazon prime to my TV via my ipad, mac book using my apple TV device..

there is no reason to get rid of Apple devices, not when a Chromecast, Roku, or FireTV can be acquired so cheaply.
This is a true statement, but this is a bad option in the long term since your content will be split between different sources, DRM rules, apps, access options, etc. You are going to constantly be running into issues were you want to watch a show that is not available on the device (phone, tablet, etc) you are on. I share "Disgusted_with_apple" frustrations in that Apple has not updated in three years now leaving Amazon FireTV and others with better interfaces and features but having my content locked into Apple's DRM.
Apple was really first to market with a viable TV interface device, and has completely turned the market over to its competitors just by not showing up. And now ATV can not play content, or provide features that ALL of the competitors have. I recently bought an Amazon FireTV and love it. The only advantage Apple has left is the iTunes Store still has more content, but that is not likely to last.
