I can access my Netflix account via my computer and can stream to my Xbox and other laptops. I've been on the phone three different times with Netflix tech support and they're telling me it's currently a "known issue" with iPads - but there's no ETA and and I'm not seeing any other reports of this on other forums.
Both of my iPad2s (32gb WiFi) can now access NetFlix with no problem. However, these are my daughters' iPads. MY iPad is a 1st gen 64gb 3G and yet I still cannot access NetFlix. I'm getting the "cannot connect to Netflix at this time..." error.
Not sure what this "known issue" with iPads would be with Netflix's iPad app. That would be like Microsoft claiming a problem with Word for the Mac is an OS X or a particular Mac model problem they have nothing to do with whatsoever.
Just so you don't feel all alone on this, yes, I'm having exactly the same problem ... except that it's with my iPhone. I can connect through the TV and desktop ... but not using the Netflix application I just downloaded from the iTunes store. I launch the "app" using WIFI and get the "We are unable to connect you to Netflx. Please try again later" message. Worse ... the "app" is frozen ... so there's no maneuvering.
I am having the exact same issue on my iPad 2 (16gb wifi) and, just like you, the Netflix screen freezes with the error message up immediately upon opening the app. Also having no problems streaming from my iPhone, laptop, or PS3. Sorry I can't help but I'm glad I'm not alone!
So I called NetFlix tech support for the 4th time last night. This time, they didn't even pretend to have a clue what the problem was. They had me reinstall the app, they changed my password, blah blah blah. Finally they told me "it's obviously an Apple DNS issue you should make an appointment at the Genius Bar". HUH????You. Have. Got. To. Be. Kidding. Me. I can get to EVERY website and access my corporate Exchange email. This is NOT an DNS issue and Apple is not my ISP. So with that, I've canceled my NetFlix account.
I can't get access to netflix via iPad. I can via wii and computer. Netflix has sent me to apple but I don't want to pay 39.99 for support. Hoping someone knows what to do so I can get access given my son is using the wii right now
Assuming that your iPad (regardless of whether it's an iPad or iPad2) can connect to netflix.com through the iPad's Safari browser, you're probably not going to get this resolved. The problem is at the Netflix end and the fact that they are redirecting users to Apple indicates that they don't have a solution and are grasping at straws. That said, I suppose it's possible that Apple made a change in iOS 4.3.3 that may have broken connectivity with Netflix's streaming servers but if that were the case, we would see a lot more users complaining about this.
Coming around full circle (at least in my case), for sh!tz and grinz, I reopened my Netflix account today. Now I'm getting it once again on my iPad and both iPad2s. Note that I had to delete the Netflix app and reinstall it on all 3 iPads, but I'd done this MANY times over the past several weeks.
i'm assuming it's something on the netflix servers and how they handle requests from the apps on Apple devices. As you say they've obviously changed something on their backend. too bad they wouldn't own up to it instead of trying to say "Apple DNS" obviously they don't understand basic networking ;-)
I am having the same problem, started july 8. did a netflix rest in the settings box on my ipad1, reinstalled my app, then called netflix support. they found out that my ip address had me in Colorado, rather than Virginia, and that was the problem. I use DSL for my internet connection. They suggest I call Apple support, but Apple would not help. I will try to release my ip address and see if that fixes it.
I got cable this weekend And now when I go to the apps it says "unable to connect to server. Try again later." The TV is connected to the internet just fine. And my internet isn't down. I can go to Already installed apps like Netflix and it works fine streaming.
If your TV won't connect to the internet, you should perform a network status test to help you choose which guide you need. Navigate to Settings > General > Network > Network Status and run the test. Pay close attention to any error messages, and whether there is an X between the TV and the router or between the router and the globe.
If the issue continues, we recommend contacting your ISP or the manufacturer of your router for further assistance. If they help you determine the TV as the source of the issue, service may be required. You are welcome to send us a private message with the full model code and serial number in order to see if the unit is within the warranty or if it qualifies for any possible options. Messages can be sent using the following link or by visiting any mod's profile. -->

I've been using Spotify on my Xbox Series X for a year now, and it always stutters exactly once for almost a second near the last half a minute of every song. I've tried reinstalling it, but it doesn't change. I'm connected directly to my router through ethernet. Playback is normal on my PCs, phones, and devices besides the Xbox.
Hey Terrawave, a possible cause of the stuttering issue with Spotify on your Xbox Series X could be related to the crossfade feature. Crossfade is a feature in Spotify that allows songs to overlap slightly, so there is no pause or silence between them.
If the crossfade setting is turned on and set to a longer duration, it may cause a stuttering effect near the end of the song as it transitions to the next track. To disable crossfade, follow these steps:
Check for network congestion: If you are experiencing stuttering during peak usage times, it is possible that your network is congested. Try using Spotify during off-peak hours to see if this improves performance.
Sorry Prague, your suggestions didn't fix my problem, but thank you very much for trying to help me! One peculiar thing about your instructions, my Xbox Spotify settings do not include any options except for showing "About" info. Also, they are located through the gear icon on the left side of the home Spotify window. However, I am able to access all the settings through my PC or phone. Crossfade was not activated in those settings. I don't know if Spotify settings are shared across devices.
I called Microsoft Xbox support to see if they could help. After both reinstalling Spotify and resetting the system, the issue is still not resolved. So the support staff recommended I talk with Spotify.
The sound will cut out at exactly 20 seconds to the end of every song in Spotify for about 1 second. This only happens on my Xbox Series X. My phones and PC computers all work with no issue. If anybody has any other ideas, please let me know.
2nd update: I chatted with Spotify support and we tried logging in to a different account that they confirmed has worked on Xbox, and that didn't work. We tried a podcast and it didn't stutter at the usual 20 second mark. I tried again later and it did stutter at closer to a minute to the end. So I know it is not a Spotify settings issue, and it happens with both songs and podcasts. Spotify support suggested talking with Microsoft. I can try that again, but I don't have time now.
In this case, we'd recommend that you reinstall the Spotify app on your Xbox. By doing that, the app can be kept up-to-date, and you can make sure the cache is not causing this inconvenience. You can read more about Spotify on Xbox in this article.
If the above doesn't do the trick, we'd recommend checking if your Xbox is up-to-date. If not, try updating its system. You can check for updates by following this Microsoft Xbox guide.
This could be a long shot but since the desktop app has the most influence over the functionality of the other apps, could you try tinkering with the crossfade setting on desktop and let us know if it affects playback on the Xbox in any way?
Mine does the exact same thing as theirs. This is the only post I've found that is the same issue. Xbox Series X and exactly 15 or 20 seconds before the end of a song or every other song it pauses/skips for like 1 second before continuing to play the song. Basically it just interrupts the song for a second and its quite annoying.
Hi @Jcolliu,
Thanks for keeping us in the loop!
Could you try signing out and then back in again to the Spotify app on your Xbox? As odd as this may sound, completing this action will resync the account info.
Should the issue persist, can you send us a video that shows how things look like from your end? If the files are too large to attach in the Community, you can either send them to us via Google Drive or as unlisted YouTube videos.
Cheers!
First off, sorry for the lack of chapters recently. As you can tell from the timeline of my blog posts, I put out a lot of chapters in a very shot span of time. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed writing them, but I kinda burned myself out doing it. I want make certain I do this right, and that may or not mean the chapters come out further apart from one another, maybe a few days or so between them. I'm sorry, but this is the best thing for both my mental health and the quality of the story. I still plan to work on the story, so don't worry about it.
Author's Note: I'll keep this one short, since I'm gonna go focus on the third Phoenix Log after I upload this. I haven't been feeling super great these last couple days, so a great many thanks for all of you reading. I hope you enjoy Chapter 10.
Taking on a foe such as crafty and dangerous as the Division is no easy task. As a former Division agent, Brooks is more than aware of everything the Division can bring to the table. As such, in addition to the original True Sons archetypes (Rifleman, Grenadier, Breacher, Engineer, Medic, Tank, RPG, Immobilizer, Heavy Weapons), she's got some new ones specially designed to be unlike anything the Division has ever seen.
