Accessing Sky Sports on computer

I have a Sky Sports TV package but cannot access Sky Sports on my computer - why? Is NowTV the only way I can watch Sky Sports on the computer?

@JG1974  There is no Sky Sports+ app for PC or mac, only mobiles.

 

You would need Sky Go to watch the Live channels on your PC

Thanks for the info. I will unsubscribe from Sky Sports now then as I want to watch on computer. The GO app has denied any access via my computer.

Have you tried to sort it out? I managed to get it to work (eventually) on my desktop.

If you want to view just the live sports channels (and not the streaming ones) then you would need either the Sky Go app or the desktop app.

Sadly it isn't possible to do this so if you have anything other than Sky+ you will have to these streams via your TV.

Hi,

 

I managed to get the Sky Go app for my Mac which now allows me to watch live sports. Not sure if this works for Sky +.

You can watch the linear Sky Sports channels but not the Sky Sports + bonus streams on Sky Go.
