Go through these effective troubleshooting tips if the TV app isn’t working on your Apple TV box or other television/streaming devices and throws errors like “Apple TV app isn’t available right now” or “Content Unavailable.”
You go to the TV app to watch popular shows like Severance, but the app says it can’t work now and asks you to check the internet connection. So, you do that, but the problem continues.
Then, you think maybe it’s a system-wide issue. And to be sure, you check other apps, such as Netflix or Prime Video, but they work.
By now, you’ve figured out that the issue is related to the TV app on this device for your account. If you’re in such a situation, the troubleshooting steps below will help you fix that. We’ll start with the basic solutions first.
Open another app, such as Music, Podcasts, Netflix, or Prime Video, and check if they work. You can also go to tvOS Settings > General > About and note the Wi-Fi Network Name. Then, connect your iPhone, iPad, or Mac to this same network and check if this Wi-Fi works.
Restart Apple TV
If you haven’t turned off your Apple TV box in a while, do that now using the main switch (not the Power Off or Restart options in tvOS Settings) and then retry using the TV app. If the app wasn’t working due to temporary glitches, rebooting the device will resolve the issue.
Restart your Wi-Fi Router
Even if your Wi-Fi is working, but one or a few apps aren’t, go ahead and power cycle your router using the main wall switch.
Turn off VPN
Apple TV running recent versions of tvOS allows you to set up and use a VPN, which can bypass geolocked content in some streaming apps. However, most leading apps can detect when you’re using a VPN and not play nice with it. So, if you can’t watch TV, turn off the VPN, if you’re using one.
Check Apple’s server status
The “Apple TV app isn’t available right now” or “Content Unavailable” error may also appear because of no fault of yours, but rather Apple’s. Head to Apple’s System Status page to check if Apple TV+ is facing any server issues.
In case Apple TV+ is available but Apple Account and iCloud Account & Sign In aren’t, that could mean your device can’t authenticate whether you’ve an active TV+ subscription. So, wait until Apple fixes all such issues. Usually, you won’t have a downtime of more than a few minutes to a couple of hours.
Update your Apple TV set-up box
While rare, bugs in tvOS can be another reason why certain apps don’t work as they should. Go to Apple TV Settings > System > Software Updates and install the most recent version of tvOS available for your model.
Remove yourself as the user and add it again
In case the above basic tips haven’t helped, the following advanced solutions will.
