How can I fix HBO GO Time Warner not working?

1. Check that your Time Warner subscription is active

1. Make sure to check that you have HBO as part of your TV service.
2. You are using the correct username and password to log in.
3. You’re in an area where the network or channel offers live streaming.

2.  Try searching for Spectrum or Charter-Spectrum

Depending on the type of device you are using, you will find the name of your provider under Spectrum or Charter-Spectrum.

If you are trying to log in from your laptop, then you should see Spectrum in the provider list. When signing in from Android or Apple phones, you should see Charter-Spectrum in the list.

3. Most of the partner apps need to be activated from a computer

HBO GO is available on the following devices: Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, Apple TV, Playstation 3 & 4, Roku, Samsung Smart TV, TIVo, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. Those need to be activated from a browser on a computer, not on a smartphone or tablet.

Chrome seems to be the browser that works the best.  If Chrome does not work for you try using another browser. You may need to clear your cookies, cache, and history for this process.

4. Uninstall and reinstall the HBO Go app

1. On your Android TV, go to Settings > Apps.
2. Under Downloaded, find and select HBO GO.
3. Select Uninstall, and then select OK to confirm.
