Re: My 5 app sky glass

I am having the same issue. 

My5 app opens showing a Milkshake adver, pressing ok then just shows the spinning wheel symbol and am unable to progress any further. 

Have a Sky Stream also and this works ok, just having issue on Sky Glass. 

Dis you manage to get a resolution to this issue?

Re: My 5 app sky glass

Again I'm also having the same issue with My5.

I've done as the above with refreshing and rebooting my Sky Glass.

 

Any way of getting this to work?

Re: My 5 app sky glass

Still cannot watch anything via the My5 app. It's now been like this since 09/02. 

Just get spinning wheel when selecting a programme to watch. 

Have perform restart of Sky glass, also a powered off and on, a refresh of apps but still the spinning wheel. 

Would appreciate a response/acknowledgement that the issue can be looked into & looks like it's not just me having the issue.

Re: My 5 app sky glass

Hi,

 

still cannot access the My5 app. 

just get the spinning wheel. 
last resort is to do a factory reset but presumably that will result in losing my playlists and settings so that's a last resort. 

therefore would appreciate a response to this ongoing issue to see if there is a resolution available.

Re: My 5 app sky glass

There's a major update to the My5 app coming next month. Hopefully it may work better.

Channel 5 are rebranding their on demand and broadcast service into the simple '5' brand, much like how Channel 4 ditched All4 and now calls itself Channel 4 both as an app and as a broadcast channel. The same is happening with Channel 5.

@Ellie_TV  Thanks for the link.  An update to My5 is well overdue. Although I haven't experienced any issues with the current My5 I don't particularly like the App so look forward to the update.

Re: My 5 app sky glass

This isn't directly helpful, I know, but My5 is a pretty bad product but is being relaunched as "5" in March. Hopefully they improve their tech as part of that relaunch.

 

Edit: saw @Ellie_TV already covered this above, sorry!

Re: My 5 app sky glass

I am having the same issue. What am I supposed to do?
No hope of speaking to anyone about it I assume? We, the customers, are left to fend for ourselves and help each other. 
But, surprise surprise, Sky are putting their prices up.
