Cannot play Apple TV+ through Sky Stream
Sky stream loads the Apple TV+ app and I can manoeuvre round within the app.
when I select a program however it starts to load and then almost immediately just chucks me out and turns off the stream puck.
I have to reset the puck and turn power off and on to get back in.
I am connected by Ethernet.
Apple TV works fine through Fire stick connected wirelessly. !

Re: Cannot play Apple TV+ through Sky Stream
The problem has now extended to Amazon Prime Video.
App loads. Program selected ( in this instance Reacher) and pick crashes / turns off. Leaving TV saying please select an input source. Only rebooting pick will get Sky Home Screen back.

Is WiFi definitely off?
What speed do you see when using the Netflix 'Check my network' option?

Re: Cannot play Apple TV+ through Sky Stream
Have you tried an App refresh?
Settings > System Management > Resets & Updates > refresh apps. This process is not instant and is carried out in the background so don't expect an instant solution.

Re: Cannot play Apple TV+ through Sky Stream
Was this issue ever resolved? I recently got the streaming puck for upstairs, I already have sky glass downstairs and have had nothing but problems with it. Can't access Apple tv+, all my programmes are not in my plalist, mainly ITV ones and if I search for a programme for example Coronation Street it says there are currently no programmes of this type available. I have tried the app refresh twice now and there is no difference.

Have you tried a reboot? Turn the Glass TV and the puck off at the wall for at least ten minutes then power back on. This can sometimes clear glitches, albeit temporarily.
Beyond that I can't suggest anything I'm afraid. I gave up with mine and cancelled because little annoying issues like this just kept recurring.

Re: Cannot play Apple TV+ through Sky Stream
If things like unplugging or a factory reset doesn't solve it then it would imply the device is faulty.
you are best off phoning Sky.
You can call on 150 from a Sky Talk Line or Sky Mobile.
If you haven't got a current Sky Mobile or Sky Talk this link should help:
https://www.sky.com/help/home Scroll down and click on ‘Need more help’ and it provides a 0333 number. If you are in the ROI on the same link change the flag in the very bottom corner to the ROI flag to obtain an 0818 number.

Re: Cannot play Apple TV+ through Sky Stream
This is unresolved. Apple TV worked for a couple of weeks without my intervention and then stopped again without apparent cause.
I'll call Sky.

Re: Cannot play Apple TV+ through Sky Stream
I have recently activated a free Apple plus subscription from my bank.
I have logged on to apple tv on my Sky stream service which is connected to a Sony OLED tv via a high quality HDMI cable.
I can open the Apple app and play the trailers for any programme. However when I select an episode the programme starts to load then I get a message on the tv saying that there is no
input and the screen remains blank. This also locks the Stream box and I have to reboot it.
I have updated all the apps,, reset the Stream box and logged out and back into my Apple account on Sky. I have also tried SD playback and restarted the BT modem which works perfectly on everything else.
The App +tv works perfectly on my iMac and I Pad so it is not an account related issue?
I managed a chat conversation with Apple and they think it is a Sky issue.
Anybody got any ideas

Re: Cannot play Apple TV+ through Sky Stream
The issue is not limited just to Apple, it's also on Disney+.
I've had 3 different Pucks, and multiple hrad resets, Erthernet/WiFi combinations and conversations with the Sky supprt... nothing has worked.
The suggestion is now to wait for the Stream Update 7 which should be out early Feb.
Appaling support from Sky.

Re: Cannot play Apple TV+ through Sky Stream
I had the same problem exactly with Apple TV - I found that my issue was caused by the default picture setting resolution at 2160p - my set supports it but Apple TV can't play at this resolution I think so it locks up my Puck. Changing it to 1080p solved the problem
