How on earth do you force this *lovely* device to change what account is logged into a specific channel? Someone was visiting me and added a couple channels (disney, netflix) with their account info to see if I liked them enough to subscribe. Now we absolutely cannot get the *#&!* Roku to forget their log-in info so I can use my own.

I've tried removing the channels multiple times from both website and the device, doing a factory re-set on the device itself, etc.

I really, really don't want to have to delete my entire roku account and create a new one from scratch...and frankly if I need to I'll just buy a firestick so I don't have to deal with this again.

Everything you need to know is right inside the channels themselves. You also could have called your friend and ask them to log out of all devices from within their Netflix account and Disney account.

For Disney Plus, scroll down from the header carousel to the menu of icons. On the left is the sidebar. Go there. Scroll down to Settings. In there is Log Out. Just like it is on Fire TV devices, because that's how Disney designed the app.

When you can kick back and watch a movie, the last thing you want to worry about is Netflix not working. However, there are plenty of reasons why Netflix won't load, with common culprits ranging from Netflix server issues to internet connection problems.

Before discussing any potential causes for the Netflix app not working, whether that's because it doesn't load or crashes randomly, we have to discuss one essential first step you should take: checking whether Netflix has any running issues. If Netflix is down, there's nothing you can do to fix the problem.

Other websites that can help you figure out if others are having Netflix issues in your area include Downdetector and IsItDownRightNow. If everything checks out and there's nothing wrong with Netflix, the technical problem is likely on your end.

It has happened to all of us: one of your favorite apps suddenly starts crashing every time you try to use it. Now you're wondering why Netflix keeps kicking you out. After the initial panic has worn off, you can take a few steps to rectify the problem, but it depends on your device.

Smartphone users should start by force-stopping the Netflix app. If it still doesn't work, try turning your phone off and on again. And if it still doesn't work, you will need to delete the app and reinstall it from the app store. The same methodology applies if you're using a set-top streaming box.

If you're using Netflix on your smart TV, you might be unable to delete the app. Instead, try signing out of Netflix on your Smart TV, clear the cache, and sign in again. Or, if you're using the Netflix app on Windows, try disabling your antivirus software. Many security suites interfere with the service. If you are still getting kicked off of Netflix, keep reading for other troubleshooting processes to try.

Netflix error code 12001 is caused by outdated data on your device. You need to refresh the data to get the Netflix app working again. But how do you refresh the data? Well, there are a few ways to do it.

First, try turning your device off and then back on again. Yes, the magic trick that gets devices and software working. Ensure your device is turned off completely, then turn it back on again and try Netflix.

In 2016, Netflix finally started offering users a way to download content to watch offline. This means you can load up on TV shows and movies before a long journey or if you're traveling to an area with poor internet coverage. Unfortunately, this feature doesn't always work flawlessly. If you're struggling to download content, there are a few steps you can take.

Secondly, make sure you're running at least Android 4.4.2 or iOS 8, have the most up-to-date version of the Netflix app, and have enough storage on your phone. You'll also need the latest software versions for your Windows 10 or Windows 11 computer, Amazon Fire tablet, or Chromebook.

You can take some simple troubleshooting steps to try and fix the problem. For example, try restarting the app, restarting your device, and restarting your home network. Try checking your internet connection with a web page or other application to determine if it is a connection issue on your streaming device.

Make sure you close any existing Netflix sessions by going to the app switcher, swiping up on the Netflix app, and then relaunching Netflix. You will need to re-enter your login credentials. If this doesn't work, you should also try reinstalling the Netflix app.

Netflix offers tiered price plans, and the number of people who can watch Netflix simultaneously depends on which one you choose. The top plan is limited to four people, but you can add up to two extra members who don't live with you.

If you see a message that reads, "Your Netflix account is in use on another device. Please stop playing on other devices to continue" or "Too many people are using your account right now," this is your problem.

You can kick off others using your Netflix account by terminating all existing sessions by going to Account > Settings > Sign out of all devices. This can take up to ten minutes to process.

For a less drastic solution, you can see who is using your Netflix account by going to Account > Settings > Recent device streaming activity to see a list of current sessions. The list will help you identify which users are online. You might be able to persuade one of them to log off.

The obvious solution here is to reset your password. In the future, use a password manager to prevent you from incorrectly entering passwords. Password managers are easy to organize, help you keep track of your passwords, and, importantly, use strong and unique passwords for each service.

However, it's worth checking your email inbox before you hit the reset button. Something more sinister might be at play. The Netflix login credentials of unsuspecting users trade hands for insignificant amounts of money on the dark web. They're often bought by people who cannot create a Netflix account in their own country.

If Netflix sees suspicious login behavior, it will block your account and email you advising you to create a new password. Remember, if your Netflix account has been hacked, you will need to change your password on any other app or service for which you've used the same credentials.

What can you do if Netflix won't load? This issue can arise for multiple reasons, including a loss of interest connection. Fortunately, the troubleshooting tips are the same regardless of the root cause. If you're faced with a spinning red circle stuck on a certain percentage, these are the tips to try:

If Netflix crashes on Roku or another smart TV, you're not alone. The Netflix app built into some smart TVs is notorious for being less reliable than the desktop, mobile, and set-top box versions. Most of the time, this is due to the shortcomings of the TV's internal hardware rather than an issue with Netflix itself.

One of the most common Netflix errors is the "Unexpected Error." It feels like Netflix is making an "oops" face and shrugs, leaving you to deal with the problem. The message suggests you reload the page and try again.

If you get this error on your TV, we suggest you shut down the app and restart Netflix. If it happens on your phone, force close the app and restart it. Should this happen in your browser, hit the refresh button. If that fails, clear the cookies, cache, and history in Chrome or any browser you use.

If Netflix is still not working, you can try restarting your router by unplugging it, waiting a minute, and plugging it back in again. Once the internet connection is reestablished, try Netflix again and see if the problem is gone. You can even take things a step further by verifying the DNS settings on your device.

do you offer access to Netflix in your listing? If so do you use your own account? Pay for another account? Make them sign in with THEIR account? I have a Netflix account myself and a ROKU I can hook up -- I just today got my first inquiry about Netflix in the unit. I'm wondering how others do it.

I have an additional device account, one for guests. If a guest doesn't have their own account, they can request me to set up access to ours as a guest viewer. Although after 2 years and many bookings, I have had only 2 requests for me to set them up. Most have their own account these days.

We have a guest account for Netflix and Hulu and an old iPhone with nothing else on it signed in for guests to cast to the tv, via google chrome-cast. Old fashioned but does the job at low cost. (We have no tv service.)

Hi Emilia, I'll just be starting to offer Netflix for my guest this coming month and thinking of the same set-up as yours (guest will have access to my account, but with a different user profile). I'd like to ask if you had any instances where your guests have messed with the other profiles on your Netflix account. If yes, what did you do? Or if not, what have you done to prevent this.

@Jose-Feliciano0, just this week I noticed the Grinch was watched on my specific Netflix profile and there were two young children staying in one of my Airbnbs at that time. It doesn't bother me and doesn't happen often. No one has ever messed with my settings or anything like that. I would say it is more frustrating when they log out of my account and into their own. I have to check every time I am turning over the space for a new guest that Netflix is correctly logged into the right account. I would never give my password to a guest so if they get logged out it would require me going over to the apartment to log them back in (luckily, no one has asked me to do that.)

Hi Jose, So I'm a little behind on this thread & I've been looking into all this stuff with Netflix & if you offer up your own account could the guest potentially mess with the other accounts on it. Anyway, their is a way you can lock your other profiles so they would only have access to the one you want them to have..
