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 live in a rule area I have an unlimited data plan on my phone I wanted to use it as a hotspot to watch Netflix on my Roku I have done this in the past but it will not connect it does not acknowledge my iPhone what am I doing wrong? I do not have Wi-Fi
First question is what model Roku you have, model number, not the name. The first step to try is to go into your settings menu and find the Network Reset and do that. On your Roku, Settings>System>Advanced system settings>Network connection reset. Not a factory reset, just the network. If that doesn't work, check your passcode on the iPhone and see if it has any special characters, as in anything except just letters and numbers. If it does, change the passcode to something with only letters (upper/lower case is fine) and numbers. Let us know if you still have issues after that.
If you have a special character (@, #, $, etc.) in the password you might have trouble getting a Roku to connect. I have two iPhone XRs, and I have connected two different Roku devices to them both without issue. My password is letters and numbers only.
Yes I to have to start from square one. and go though to entire procedure if my TV has lost it's connection to my iphone. Some times I have to reboot my phone first as well as unplugging my Rokuy tv and then plugging it back in. Then start the procedure of re-setting the network connection by using the on screen menue. This is a real pain but I can get it to work most of the time. I live in a RV and travel all over the country . I have Two devices that can connect to the roku tv one is a Verizon mifi and my iphone 10 which is 0n the ATT net. The Verizion mifi connects with no issues. but my Iphone which is on the ATT net is the problem child connecting.The good thing about having Two devices on Two Cell Net's is if one is slow the other may be fast. and If your traveling around the country this is a good thing. I do wish the iphone and rouku could learn to play nice.
I still can't reliably connect to my iPhone 11 Max just as I was never able to reliably connect to my iPhone X before that. After resetting over and over again I can sometimes get it to connect and once it connects it works fine. Most of the time I need to rescan several times to find my hotspot and then when I connect it starts to connect and then immediately disconnects.
Did you try pulling the plug on the Tv. To reset the TV. then do a Hard Reset on your phone first then reset all the network connections then try to connect. If I do not see my iphone's hotspot on the scan list I cycle the share hot spot button on and off on my phone untill I see it on the scann list. this worked for me if I did it in that order
scenerio: If you reset your network settings on Roku and connect hotspot most often it will connect. Then later if you change and connect to one of your other routers Wi-Fi that will connect. But then if you try to go back to the hotspot on the iPhone or the iPad it will not connect. Sometimes you will get a Wi-Fi connection but it will not link with the Internet connection saying no Internet available. Obviously this is incorrect.
But if you go back and reset your network settings on the Roku it will connect normally. But if you ever change to another Wi-Fi source and try to go back to the hotspot it will not happen unless you reset the network settings.

After much research and going back-and-forth I do not think this is an Apple issue because previously there was absolutely no issue. And the fact that you can do a network setting on the Roku and connect shows that something within the software that conflict ding
