Watching streaming movies from NetFlix

I tried to watch streaming movies from NETFLIX, but I get an error indicating that the MAC does not support NETFLIX real-time streaming movies, but MAC could support this in the future. Does anyone know when MAC might enable this?

This has nothing to do with Apple enabling this. It's up to Netflix to make their service available to Mac OS X. You should contact Netflix with your question.

  • 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.

  • Can not stream movies from netflix

    I have an MacBook Air and I can not stream movies from Netflix.  I have downloaded Silverlight and unloaded it and reloaded it but still can not stream movies. What is up

    What exactly happens when you try to view a movie?  And how exactly are you "unloading" Silverlight?

  • Silverlight won't work in FF4.0, cant stream movies from Netflix. SL works ok in IE 7.0 What is wrong with FF??

    I used FF to stream movies from Netflix until Dec2010. I have updated to FF 4.0 and now I can't down stream Netflix movies. I get an error from Netflix that says Silverlight is not working and must reinstall.
    BUT......Netflix and Silverlight works fine with IE 7.0
    What happened to FF4.0..and Silverlight??

    I just updated to the new Firefox and it wouldn't stream my Netflix movies. I was getting an error code related to Silverlight. I called Netflix and they had me enable my history and that fixed the problem. Their tech support, said the history/cookies must be enabled to stream movies. Hope this helps! (I also followed the prompt on the screen from Netflix with this error code to delete my old saved certificates, etc.)

  • Trying to stream movie from Netflix. Using Lion, Safari

    Trying to stream a movie from Netflix on macbook pro.  Using Lion, Safari & Silverlight 5.1.  Movie downloads OK & black screen appears with controls.  Movies doesn't play.  When I put my cursor anywhere on the movie progress bar, a still picture and the time of the still beneath it appears.  But the movie itself never plays. Uninstalled and re-installed silverlight.   Called netflix, microsoft and applecare.  No one has a solution and punts to the other!  Can anyone help me please??

    I disagree...We use apple because we like to use safari.
    why would we download another troublesome browser onto our macs..?
    geez.
    Yes it is & I'm sticking to it!!!!
    Using Safari is your personal choice.  Having backup browsers is the way to go for Mac users.  If one browser doesn't work, use one that will.  Not all browsers are troublesome.
    I use 3 browsers.  None are troublesome.  The browser I use as my default browser has more of what I want to do than Safari.  It's my personal choice.

  • HT4381 Streaming movies from Netflix It doesnt shift to next episode

    After watching the first episode of a movie from Netflix it doesn't shift to the next episode it just repeats the first episode over and over.  Please help me fix it!

    I have this same issue in both 5.1 and 5.1.1 firmware versions on the 3rd generation AppleTV.  I reverted back to firmware 5.0.2 by connecting the AppleTV via USB to iTunes.  In iTunes under windows you hold down the shift key while clicking the restore button to select an alternate update file.  You can search for the file AppleTV3,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw for the 3rd generation AppleTV. Sorry, I don't know the file name for the earlier generations.

  • I bought Apple TV so that I could watch streaming movies from the computer to my TV.  But when I turn on Apple TV it will automatically switch itself off every 10 minutes. Doesn't do it in itunes only in mirroring.

    Apple TV turns its mirroring off on its own - why?

    Has a troubleshooting section.

  • After an hour or so of streaming movies from Netflix or TV from CNN, computer locks up; is there a cure?

    Latest version of Firefox (4.0.1); XP Pro w/sp3

    I use a HP Photosmart Premium 309a all-in-one that uses the same 5 ink system & technology that's in the B8550 & D7560.  I've just checked & since the end of November I've printed  756 pages (730 documents & 26 photos) & I have not had to change out my supplies.  On looking at the page yield info for the B8500 series (http://h10060.www1.hp.com/pageyield/en-019/yields/PSB8500_photo.html?cCode=us) it should be possible to print approx 100 4 X 6 photos with 564 supplies.The initialisation process that you mention is necessary to maintain consistent print quality and I hear this happening on my printer too but it usually only happens just before or after a print job.  If your printers are going through the initialisation process every few minutes then it may be advisable to communicate this to Tech Support because it certainly does not match my experience.You may find that by taking the cartridges out and storing them in a moist environment that you may have issues with printing when you re-insert them because the docking filters on the print head may dry out because the supplies are not connected.

  • HT4799 can I stream movies from Amazon Prime and watch on my TV through Apple TV?

    Can I watch streaming movies from Amazon Prime on my TV via my Apple TV?

    No, you will need to purchase your content from iTunes instead.

  • Exactly how do i stream videos from netflix, thru my ipad, to my hdtv?

    how do i uaw my ipd2 to download movies or stream movies  from netflix, thru my ipad to my hdtv?

    No you don't need an Apple TV.
    If you already have a Netflix account, you need to download the Netflix app for iPad.
    Depending on what will work, you'll need to purchase the Apple Digital AV cable/connector (HDMI connector),
    Apple Component video & audio cable (separate Red, Green Blue channels) or Apple Composite & audio (VGA)
    cable.
    Once you have one of the cables connected to both your iPad and the appropriate connection/selection on the TV, you tap the Netflix app icon, input your Netflix user name and password, pick a TV show or movie you want to watch tap on the movie, then tap play and the video should output through the iPad's dock connector to the input connected to the TV. Make sure you pick the right input setting via your HDTV's own remote control.
    And that's it!
    You need to have an active account for the Netflix streaming content service in order for their app to work on iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch.
    I have an older Sony 38" TV and use the Apple Composite (VGA) cable to stream Netflix through the iPad to my TV. The iPad acts as a streaming media device for this type of use.
    Works great!
    One caveat though. There is been a lot of threads here that deal with the quality of Apple's cable/connector varieties.
    Many have complained that they had to struggle with finding a good, working cable or finding the cable that would work with the iPad that allowwed the video
    signals to pass thru the cable/s to the TV.
    Hopefully you won't have this issue, but if you buy a certain Apple cable and it doesn't appear to be working or defective, return it and purchase another like it or try an entirely different cable.
    I couldn't get the Apple Component Video cable to work on my Sony. I returned it for another and still didn't work. I returned that one a tried the
    Apple Composite (VGA) cable anf that cable has worked like a champ for nearly a year, now!

  • My Power Book G4 unable to download instant watch movies from Netflix. Is there software to enable this?

    My Power Book G4 is unable to download Instant Watch movies from Netflix. Is there software to enable this?

    Powerbook has a PowerPC G4 processor, which isn't Intel-based.
    That's a problem we've run into with Powerbooks ... various web sites requiring an Intel processor or Flash, and other products, no longer being supported. 

  • HT204400 We were watching a movie from iTunes on our Apple TV and it froze with about 10 minutes left... just a spinning disk.  Network was fine, I could run Netflix, I could choose other content... but the movie only gives spinning disk when I go to it.

    We were watching a movie from iTunes on our Apple TV and it froze with about 10 minutes left... just a spinning disk.  Network was fine, I could run Netflix, I could choose other content via AppleTV or iTunes... but the movie only gives spinning disk when I go back to it.  I confirmed settings on AppleTV and reset the unit without any result.  iTunes indicates I have 21 hours left on the rental.  I would like to be able to finish the movie and not have to rent it again.
    Any thoughts?  Anything that needs to be done in Samsung TV settings?

    How did you verify network was fine?
    Netflix adapts to the network whereas iTunes needs a consistently solid connection. What other content did you try?
    What is your current connection via speedtest
    Go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC) to get a report of the network
    Make sure DNS is set to automatic.
