Sky Go - Whats my Device Pin

[Ian+Horwood]

Hi there,

I tried to watch Raiders of The Lost Ark Sky Cinema on my iMac. Sky Go asked for my device pin. I thought this was the pin I use on Sky Q (for age related movies and watershed etc) it said this was incorrect. I mean it was the right code, just not my device PIN.

I went on to My Sky and found my devices (6). My iMac is on there and i expected to find a PIN for each device, but no, that would be too easy.

I can watch the movie on my MacBook with no issue and no pin required.

I am able to watch normal TV programmes but not Sky Cinema for which I have a sub.

So, how do i establish what my Sky device pin is for my devices please?

@Ian+Horwood If you've forgotten your PIN it may be the last four digits of the phone number you have registered with Sky.

Thank you for your help guys. I've sorted this now.

At the risk of looking foolish and for future reference for anyone else.

I went to watch the movie on the TV listings...  Mistake. When I went directly on to Sky Cinema On Demand I was able to watch any movie on my iMac without entering a device pin at all.

Fascinating stuff...

Cheers anyway
