Cannot Re-watch episodes of a series on Apple TV 4K 2021

My wife wants to go back and rewatch episodes of For All Mankind that I already watched. We can navigate back to the already viewed episodes, but selecting and hitting the button to play does nothing. I’ve tried to restart our Apple TV 4K, and the same thing happens. I can rewatch the content on my iPad and MacBook Pro, but not one our new Apple TV 4K.

Hi Dmwierz,


If a show won't start playing on your Apple TV, follow If you can't watch or stream movies and TV shows in the Apple TV app:


"After each step, try to stream or download the movie or TV show again.


  1. Check the System Status page for service interruptions or check a third-party provider's website for any interruptions. If there are service interruptions, try to stream or watch the video later.
  2. If you're having trouble signing in with your Apple ID, you can reset your Apple ID password or learn how to get a verification code and sign in with two-factor authentication.
  3. If your cellular connection is poor, connect to Wi-Fi instead.*
  4. Try watching on a different device using the same Wi-Fi or cellular connection. If it doesn't work, contact your internet service provider to see if there's an issue with your network.
  5. If other people are using Apple TV+ or Apple TV channels, make sure it doesn't exceed the limits for streaming on multiple devices."


Take care.
