I have elderly parents that have Dish and a Roku. My dad hasn't been able to get any basketball games broadcast on SECN+ this season and because of his age and Parkinson it is very upsetting to him. I have had the same problem a couple of times but not the last game with U-verse/apple tv setup. Does anyone have a suggestion? Thanks in advance

I have local cable

and can go visit my cousin, ( 125 miles away) and I can watch via his internet, but using my local cable sign in...

On my Ipad. I suspect I could possibly do so thru his ROKU, but I have not tried it.

I have had this problem before. I had to log out of the app and re link my roku to the cable or satellite subscription.

Assuming you have SEC Network in your package, Try to log out and then back in first.

If that hat doesn’t work, uninstall the app, clear the cache, reinstall, and then sign in.

mine kicked me out where it said the channel was not in my tv package. Logged out and then back in and it fixed it.

thanks I will go to their house tomorrow and see if that works. It is hard seeing your parents get old.

Hey, NT, it ain't all that easy being the parent who is getting old....LOL. I'm 78 have 3 sons and lots of 'grands' and they make all the difference in the world in my days....so glad your folks have you to care about, and for them....Class of '62

I have Uverse and I view WatchESPN via a ROKU stick. I didn't have any problems logging on for the Lady Dawgs vs Fl game. Prior to that I did. When ATT couldn't determine if the unauthorized user problem was their problem (was pretty obvious) or it was a problem from the ESPN side.

I have Dish and use Roku. A couple of weeks ago I got the unauthorized user thing, and after I signed out and signed back in it worked fine. There must be a time limit on how long a sign-in will last.

Try connecting to a VPN before logging in. Sometimes what area you live in gets "blacked out" basically. A VPN will solve this.

Turns out that nothing was working on the espn app. Logged off and logged back on and it started working again. Thanks everyone
