Cannot activate Google Play and YouTube App


Question

Posted

Hi, the Google Play and YouTube apps launch on my new LG Smart TV just fine, but when I attempt to login, E.g to rent a movie, I get a screen  that prompts me to visit a browser on any device and go to  Google.com/activate, or YouTube.com/activate  and enter a generated pin code. I have visited this activate page from iOS and the browser app on my TV. But nothing happens after i have carefully followed the instructions from this web page - I still cannot login to any Google owned apps from my TV. I have checked whether I have the latest apps installed, and it seems that I do because they were last updated in February 2017. I bought my TV in January 2017. I have spent an hour on the phone with Google support, who tried many solutions with me but we had no resolution.  How can I successfully log into my Google apps and watch YouTube  or movies on my new tv?

      I am using the lg tv from 2 years and I found an amazing experience till now.
      But I like request about Play box TV app. Please add this app in store section so that I could download it on my tv. 
      It would be helpful if you respond to my email. This app is very demanding now a days as it comes with the excitel broadband service.

      Hi!
      Is there anyone experiencing the failure to connect your desktop PC using the Google Chrome remote desktop application in the webOS? This just happened after I installed a recent webOS update.
      Are the any solutions? Thanks.

      Since the Web OS update last week, the line on the Home Screen with all my apps has changed.  Now Apps is the first one in the line.  I do not want it there, but cannot move it.  If I go to the end where it shows Edit Apps, I can click on any app to move it or delete it.  But, the Apps icon is grayed out and cannot be moved.  My neighbor has the exact same model I do -- LG OLED 653PUA -- and it is not like that on his tv.  He can move the App icon anywhere he wants.  This is very annoying as it defaults to the Apps icon when I click on Home and then I need to click to get to YouTube TV, which until the update was always first in the line.

      On our LG G1 OLED, when watching a program on Binge, the Binge app restarts itself every 20 minutes or so with a message about needing to restart to free up memory. Power-cycling the TV doesn't fix the problem, nor does running the "Memory Optimiser" function from system settings. None of the other streaming service apps we have on the TV have this problem - Prime Video, Stan, Netflix, Disney+, Britbox, ABC iView, SBS On Demand, Youtube. Those are the only other apps installed on the TV. I've checked the LG WebOS version and checked for app updates, and everything is latest version.
      If I run the Binge Android app on my Chromecast with Google TV, it works without any problems when streaming the same programs.

      In fact, Spotify doesn't offer its service to LG webOS Smartwatch now. If you want to listen to Spotify songs on LG webOS Smartwatch, you'd need a
      link hidden, please login to view. With Tunelf Spotibeat Music Converter, you can and then transfer them to LG webOS Smartwatch for playing without limits.
