Hi I have been trying to use Sky go on an apple tv, ipad and macbook for days now but no success. I can access the app on all devices and browse channels/content but when I go to play/download I get the same error message of "Because of a technical issue, you cannot watch this content. Please try again later". This comes up on my iphone, ipad and apple tv. On my macbook I get the message "We found an issue with your account. Don't worry, out Customer Services team can help - give them a call. Code: 1413". When trying to download something on macbook it gave the same error except with code:1313. However, it seems just trying this again I don't even have the option to download to computer/ipad/iphone. No devices allow option to download and only to sky box.
I have tried all steps of turning off/on, sign in/out, delete/reinstall apps so please do not suggest that. I also can't seem to manage to remove devices from sky go access. I click remove and just nothing happens. It also doesn't let me edit the name of the associated devices.

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out moreTry signing out of the app then reboot your device and the sign back into the app.
If that doesn't work then try linking your Sky ID to your account, help on doing this can be found here:

Hi i have tried every way of rebooting/restarting/reinstalling/re-signing in and has not helped on any device.
My account is already linked as I can see the account number on my sky app. (Regardless the link for help with linking accounts isn't accurate/completely out of date. It doesn't help whatsoever for anyone who tries)
Still no luck

I'm so sorry this is happening to you, but kinda glad it's happening to someone else as I thought it was just me. Everything working just fine with me until Monday, now I get the exact same problemon multiple devices. I've done all the obvious and have spent hours on the online chat and phone with the 'experts' trying to debug. No one from Sky seems to know how to fix this. Worryingly, none of the Sky staff I've spoken to seem to acknowledge it as a wider problem. I keep getting told to logout, uninstall, try again tomorrow. Sorry I can't help, I just wanted to let you know that it's not just you, and I really hope if you get it resolved, you'll post a fix on this thread. If I can get it resolved I'll do just that.
