Why Netflix asking you to connect on Apple TV?

3rd generation Apple TV all up-to-date with software updates etc.

About 50% of the time when I start the Netflix app from the Apple TV interface, I wonder to return my email and password for Netflix.  I've been doing this for months now and it's a pain to have to enter again with the Apple TV remotely and even "Remote" app on my iPhone.  I contacted Netflix and they say it could be a problem with the device, which is the cause to a loose association to the Netflix account.  Everyone knows this or have any suggestions on how to fix?

Thank you!

This seems odd. It's a very small chance that someone is playing tricks on you. If someone else (including the possibility of netflix employees) have your username and password, he or she can log on remotely (from another computer) and log out of your session or all currently connected sessions (who will sign your out automatically) to make you crazy.

I would go to a computer, sign in, change the password and security questions and answers, wait a few hours, reconnect to netflix to apple tv and see what he does now. I doubt there is a problem with the apple tv because it works very well (if it works fine as you only) with other applications.

If this does not help then create an apple tv reset to factory settings it may take you 10-15 minutes (save all your hassle of pulling hair...) If you have hair... (LOL). In addition, you can take screenshots of all your settings from apple photo so you remember how to set them up again after the reset. I usually use my smart phone to take pictures rather than things written down... its faster and easier.

  • Why the last OS update cost me gigabytes of data when you are connected directly to my computer and ISP via Itunes February 29, 2016

    Why the last OS update cost me gigabytes of data when you are connected directly to my computer and ISP via Itunes.  29 February 2016

    While it is connected to ITunes via my Dell system, I was informed of the latest OS update for my IPhone 6.  I decided that the direct connection to the internet would be the fastest way to download and install the software.  During the process I started to have some warning of our AT & T account that I approach the limit of our data plan, then in quick succession, only warnings, said I've reached the limit and then passed in the data, limit charges.  At the time it was done, I had accumulated more than 2 gigabytes of additional data charges.

    Until that point, I was very pleased with the device and confident in the ability to use Wifi and data.  Due to this incident, I became very suspicious of the camera and the huge potential for data overcharges. It is extremely disconcerting as it happened while it is directly connected to the internet using my computer at home.

    Please note that, in the episode my ISP and the computer is remained connected to the WEB with no sign of connectivity issues.

    Someone at - he had a similar experience and understand what went wrong?

    Thanks for your support,

    You have chosen the option of direct download, you have received a message of warning from AT & T about it yet.

  • Why can't connect using Apple Airport WIFI of my remote security cameras but can connect using the Xfinity WIFI Modem/Router open?

    Why can't connect using Apple Airport WIFI of my remote security cameras but can connect using the Xfinity WIFI Modem/Router open?

    Two possibilities:

    (1) your airport WiFi might have a network name that is not in line with best practices, wireless

    A good wireless network name is...

    ... In short no more than 20 characters

    Simple... no special characters like an apostrophe, dollar sign, asterisk, etc.

    Compact, without spaces in the name

    For example, a wireless network network name as... red .dfedoryk Apple wireless network... .is not what you want. Something like... .dfedorykwireless. .. masse are much more likely to connect to non-Apple devices.

    Same guidelines your password

    (2) Apple gives the same name to network 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz network that produces double router band.  Some non-Apple devices are confused by the present, you may need to use the option to assign a different name for the network of 5 GHz on the router from Apple. Then, 'point' your device to the network name specific to which you want to connect.

    MI iphone was stolen from a friend and it has been registered with icloud account that I currently have access.

    There is no way they could have disabled AGFI without the credentials of your iCloud account... If you did not fall victim to a scam (e-mail or a text message directing you to connect with iCloud to see your phone, etc.), you need to consider if the "friend" that he stole was the password for your account.
