  1. Make sure you are using the correct member ID to sign in
  2. Restart the device.
  3. Delete cache. Varies on phone, browser or device operating system.
  4. Uninstall and reinstall the app
  5. Verify you have the latest software/ operating system on your phone or tablet 
  6. Turn off other apps that may be in use
  7. Make sure you have U-verse TV service and an appropriate package – if you do not have U-verse TV, you can see if it is available by signing into your account at att.com.

Just days ago I was able to watch Fox live on the app. Now it's not even coming up on my guide while I'm at home watching the channel!?!? I have it, but apparently the app is having an issue with that channel. It's the only one I watch in the app, so I'm not sure if that's the only one missing. Thanks!

Is anyone else experience a problem being able to watch programs once signed into uverse.com?

 

I informed ATT yesterday and still am unable.  I can get to my account information but not live tv, or any programs.

About a year ago I was having this same problem but then I downgraded my TV package to the UBasic package so it didn't matter anymore & At&t stopped looking into the issue. I have since upgraded to the U200 package and the problem remains a year later. The problem:  When I try to play The Simpsons on FOX using the Uverse Android app, the app exits and asks if I want to reopen the app or report the problem. I have already reported the problem many times with no response. This also happens with Family Guy as well (only on FOX, not TBS). Plus only the latest episode will make the app exit; if I play an earlier episode, it will play an ad, followed by the intro to the show but then I get error code FE0006. None of this happens on the Uverse website when using my computer. I actually think this is an issue with FOX but I don't know how to contact them. Is anybody else having this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Looks like we got screwed, and u-verse apps, internet, xbox,  and website are shutting down:
Notice Appearing in USA Today on April 18, 2017
On or after May 30, 2017, the Uverse.com site may be retired and no longer available for video streaming. Additionally, on or after May 30, 2017, the U-verse app may be unavailable on the XBox One and Windows mobile operating systems as well. Customers will still be able to stream via the U-verse mobile app on all other supported platforms. More information will be available at Uverse.com.

Why is my TV locking up every 20 seconds. I change the channel and I can watch it for 20 seconds and it locks up again. Fix it asap or I will go to Comcast. You are not worth the money!

Looks like my 2-wire system is buffering or something. Now I can watch a channel for 10 seconds. Getting old fact--time you AT&T to hire some new techs, the ones they have can't handle the job. I hope Comcast is better!

Whenever I try to log into the U-Verse app, I get the following error:

Login Failed

The U-verse mobile service is temporarily unavailable.  Please try again later.

OK

 

I can log into the website without issues.

 

I used to have a different U-Verse account associated with my current user id, if that makes any difference.

 

Thanks,

Ian
