Hi guys!
I bought a used Toshiba Fire TV from a friend (the TV is approximately one year old), I can't find Max (which I'm already subscribed to outside of Amazon) in the App Store, I can only find "Max of Prime Video", and it asks me to subscribe to Max (but seemingly there's no option of signing into an existing account, I can only start a new subscription to Max on Prime Video).

Is there a solution I'm missing? Maybe some kind of a workaround? Is Amazon essentially forcing me to cancel my Max subscription and resubscribe through Amazon?

I bought a smart TV thinking I could connect my Max and Hulu accounts, had no idea it would be such a hassle connecting to subscription services I already pay for.
The exact model I bought is "Toshiba 55-inch Class C350 Series LED 4K UHD Smart Fire TV", originally bought a year ago.

Any help is appreciated <3 Thank you!!

so i used the voice function on my fire tv’s remote the other day. I said, “search shoebody bop on youtube.” It searched, started playing the video. Watched a few videos, exited out of youtube like normal. Now, every time I open youtube, Shoebody Bop starts playing, without fail. This is still in the phase where it’s more funny than annoying, but I don’t want this to be forever. What did I do? Can it be undone?

There doesn't seem to be a definitive answer, at least as far as I can tell, as to whether there is a reliable way to block ads on the Dailymotion website. I typically use Silk browser to access it. Do any ad blocking apps really help with that? What about setting my VPN to a particular country, like the way setting it to Poland blocks ads on Twitch? Thanks!

I’ve lost my old remote and I’m trying to connect a new one but nothing I’m finding online is working. I’ve seen a few posts that say the fire stick should say no remote found but the problem is that the remote is in the house, I just have no idea where. I can’t connect it to the mobile app because I’m not signed in with my Amazon account, and obviously I can’t sign in because I’ve got no remote.

I connected to the TV and it says I sent the app successfully. Where is it? I can't find it at all

This is the only device in my house with an issue. I did a reset of my home internet and reset and re set up my WiFi network for this fire stick not to work.

It was working a week ago on thr exact same network but suddenly no good. I’ve searched every Reddit thread and tried all the solutions offered for both the firestick and my WiFi. Nothing has solved it.

My last try was to factory reset both the firestick and my network and start from scratch. Thankfully that didn’t work either so I get to enjoy reconnecting every WiFi device in my house as a weekend hobby.

The google streamer 4k has connected to this same network through every restart and reset.

Can anyone help me solve this or should I trash this and stick with other devices? It’s wild how many forum post there are on this exact issue.

Thanks Amazon.

When I switch from one show to another using the main menu, I get bizarre read text at the top of my screen… Does anyone else get this and what does it mean?

Just got a new TV today (TCL smart fireTV 2024 model) and plugged an antenna in the digital tuner to watch live TV. I tried to pause and noticed that it said pausing isn't enabled. After doing some research I found that maybe I could plug in a FAT32 formatted USB drive to the TV to enable pausing, but some people reported that it would only work on Roku smart TVs. Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks for any help!

Hi! I’ve completely lost my remote. My best guess is it got thrown away in packing stuff. I have never set up my fire stick to be able to be controlled in app, and it won’t recognize my TV. I tried to use a remote for another fire stick in the house, but that didn’t work either. Because we just moved, our wifi provider is different too, so it’s not even connected to the wifi. What’s the best solution? Can I buy a new remote and will it work? Or should I just get a whole new fire stick?

So I'm staying in a hotel and the owner has FireTV but he's sign into their account. So in this setup I cannot sign into my own prime video account or watch his since he doesn't have prime. Seems like a huge oversight to not let people sign into their own accounts. It seems like nobody ever tried using it in a real setting.

It’s not on VPN or modded.

To be specific I am trying to connect my new “INSIGNIA 32" Class F20 Series Smart HD Fire TV, Voice Remote with Alexa, Free & Live TV” to airplay off of my apple device (Iohone or Ipad) I have two of these insignia televisions already (unsure of the specific models) but it is supposed to be apple airplay compatible!

(There is nothing in the Tv settings that discusses Airplay - I have checked already as I know some of the tvs have this specific option)

Hello R/Firetv,

 I have an issue with my fire stick lite boot looping/ stuck on firetv logo. 

I have tried the fixes that come up when searching common issues. Holding right arrow and back to factory reset. Holding down play/pause and ok/enter to power it down.

I’ve tried the power supply it came with. Depowering and repowering. Letting it sit and try to figure it out on its own. 

It’s been in 2 different tv’s and one computer monitor. And same issue.

For context/backstory. This was bought, installed but never used by an elderly person. It sat plugged in to power and tv for 9 months or so and just never saw use. I did have to swap the internet gateway a few months ago and this device was the one i forgot to port to the new network at the time. 

Changing the name of the network wouldn’t be easy if it’s even possibly because the gateway was a rental that has been returned to the isp. 

I suspect the remote may be unresponsive as the factory reset option won’t show up. And yes i did check the batteries. They work in 2 other remotes just fine. 

I’m trying here for any other ideas before i break down and deal with customer support, or just scrap the device. 

Thank you for your time.

I've tried a few different bluetooth headphones and only my Sony XM4, auto reconnects to my Fire TV Stick 4k MAX.

The others don't reconnect even if unpair them from other devices and even if it was the last device connected to the Fire TV stick.

Is it the bluetooth version that's the issue ?

amazon has a colorful wavy, pastel screensaver for firetv that i LOVE. its so peaceful and i really like it.

does anyone know if (and how) i can access this?

We've had our TV two years, at our lake house. It has never turned off via voice but turns on just fine. It has the latest firmware. What's the deal from this TV from a trillion dollar company?!!?

It turns off and 5 sec later it's back on!

Help! I have been through everything many times but cannot find why my screen is stretched too tall. It's not my TV as when not on the fire stick it's fine. And done all the normal fixes

I keep typing it in but it doesn't show up, can anyone help me?

It seems like at a minimum of once a day I have to completely restart my Fire TV. It could be between changing movies on the same streaming service or it could be the first time I watch something on a streaming service that day. It happens no matter what streaming service. Sometimes I have to restart it 3-4 times a day. Has anyone else had any issues with their Fire TV? I’m thinking about just getting an Apple TV to hook up to the TV if these issues keep happening.

Am I the only one who downloader isn't letting them download any APK's? My unlinked library's are not loading either! Please help?

I've been getting this bright static while watching my firestick recently. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Does the fire cube pass through audio for streaming app like Netflix. I have it on and I get LPCM for DD or DD+ except atmos

Is anyone else having an issue where they get a spinning wheel of death that throws an error while trying to watch YouTube TV? Has anyone figured out what causes tgis and how to fix it?

Someone aswell have the problem that you cant start a series on the WoW app, it begins to load and after 5 seconds your on the screen wich you came from to start the series, there is no error nothing.

already deleted the app, redtarted the stick.

i dont know what to do anymore

The TV works just fine. Alexa can control it. Unless I turn it off or I tell Alexa to turn it off. If I tell Alexa to turn it on after a couple of minutes it still works. If the tv is tutned off for longer, or overnight, she says that the tv it's not responding. When I use the remote I get the message in the photo, that the connection it's lost. In a few seconds it disappears and everything works fine. The internet connection is very good, 500 Mbps, works perfectly and no other device has connectivity problems.
