iPad device needs authorisation for skygo

Hi, my iPad says device needs to be authorised when trying to use Skygo. I have deleted and redownloaded Skygo on this device and receive the same message. I also followed some guidance given on this board to try a live channel to see if this would authorise the device but this did not work.

 

Please can anyone help, many thanks, Sean

@SeanPatrick1957 

To get you some help with this I have escalated your post to the Sky Messaging team who should be in touch with you regarding this via a blue/red chat bubble which will appear at the bottom of this page. It can take up to a few hours to be contacted via this.


This link explains how this works so you will need to respond to the chat bubble at the bottom of the page when it appears by typing it it to start the chat:

https://community.sky.com/t5/Did-you-know/Escalating-a-post-to-a-Sky-expert/ba-p/3711147


When the chat bubble does appear you will need to respond to it as soon as you can or it will be closed if there is no response within 48 hours. To start the conversation just type in it.
This isn't a live chat so replies are not instant.

Re: iPad device needs authorisation for skygo

I have the same problem. It seems that a lot of other people do as well. Posts seem to get referred to the special help team, and then any answers or solutions are not visible. If there is a fix can someone post it so that everyone impacted can see it. Many thanks.

There might not be one fix fits all solution as it could be an issue that can only be sorted when someone looks into your account itself so do you want the messaging team to contact you tomorrow about this ?

Thank you for the assist. BTW the Sky Sports app works absolutely fine on the same iPad, the issue  seems specific to Sky Go

Re: iPad device needs authorisation for skygo

I got through to Tom at Sky who took all the relevant details. He then had to go to a training session. On coming out of the training he requested a screenshot of the error message etc. I turned on the app to do this ..... and it worked. No issues at all ....
