Apple TV+ not playing various titles

Severance season 2 episode 10 cold harbor won't play on laptop. Same for Your Friends & Neighbours... Other shows seem to be working. I've rebooted, checked mac is up to date. Any ideas?

Same for me. Your Friends & Neighbours will play on our smart TV (Apple TV), on my phone, but not on my MacBook Pro. Some other shows also refuse to play. But then, others play just fine. Have tried restarting, logging in and out etc. It's like the buttons are just dead, no reaction when you click "Resume". Also in Australia btw.

Same with me. Various titles won't play but most will. As with most people here, Your Friends & Neighbours is the main issue, though I've tested and a couple other titles including the Studio won't play.

I found a workaround for those needing to watch on a MacBook Pro:

  1. Open Apple TV on your iPhone
  2. Start playing show
  3. Airplay to your MacBook Pro

Not the best solution, and it does lose quality slightly, but a handy trick if, like me, you don't have another option.

I have the same problem with episodes 2 & 3 of Your Friends & Neighbours not playing. Nothing happens when I click the play button from both the 'continue watching' list and when having clicked through to where all episodes are listed.


I can watch other programs.

I have tried closing and reopening the application and restarting my Mac.
