I have a Panasonic Blu-ray player that has Netflix on it. I set it up a few months ago and it has worked fine for streaming movies and viewing my Netflix instant queue. But recently I've started getting error messages when trying to access Netflix. "Cannot connect to netflix, please try again."

Occasionally a Netflix client such as a Blu-ray player or TV can get "confused" about its account authorization. When this happens, you may start getting error messages when you attempt to access Netflix on a device that was previously working fine. This can happen on an LG or Sony or Panasonic or Samsung or VIZIO Blu-ray player or web-enabled TV, or on the ROKU streaming box or Apple TV (among others). The message you get can vary but may be one of these:

This procedure is also helpful if you are getting rid of a Blu-ray player or TV that you've previously set up for Netflix and you want to remove your account from the device. It used to be possible to manage devices online in your Netflix account but they've since disabled that feature. Currently if you want to remove a device from your Netflix account online, you have to disable *ALL* of the devices and add them back in one at a time.

But there is a way to break the link to your Netflix account from the actual device itself. To do so, get into the Netflix screen on that device (or the Netflix error screen, as the case may be), then using your device's remote, hit the following buttons:

Go back into Netflix on that device again and you will then need to re-authorize the device with your Netflix account. This may require an activation code and a trip to www.netflix.com/activate to enter that activation code, or it might just entail logging into Netflix from the device using your account e-mail address and password. The procedure for activating a new device for Netflix varies a bit from device to device. But once it has been re-authorized, the error messages should be gone and the device should work properly again.

6/14/13 - happening again: big surge in interest in this topic suggest a Netflix network outage. I can confirm the same problem trying to access Netflix from my phone. A Netflix network outage is likely culprit.

I have a BDPS380 and it says activate enhanced features, tells me to go to sony internet TV (?) and put in a 4 digit code, when I get to a site thats like the one it suggested (As the one it tells me to go to does not exist) there is no where to register my blu ray, I could do my TV but not my blu ray.... whats the solution guys, I want enhanced features!

What I see is that during activation/registering the device on SEN site/account, all the codes that gets generated by the blueray player gets rejected with the error message: "Incorrect activation code. Please try again."

As I recall activating the 'enhanced features' on my BDP-S7200 did not actually provide any enhancements to the functionality of the player except maybe add a few more worthless streaming services. My BD Player has well over a 100 different apps/services but assides a small handful of around 5-6 the others are not worth the bother.
