Restart your device
How Do I Download Netflix Shows On My Macbook Air
Restart your device, then try to stream or download the movie or TV show again. Learn how to restart your Apple TV, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac.

- Netflix allows downloading shows and movies on iOS devices. I wonder if it will allow downloading of shows via its iOS app on the M1 devices. Seems like it should. Previously there was no way to download a netflix movie to watch on a plane or a place without wifi. This should hold for all the other apps like HBO Max, Hulu, etc.
- How to Download Netflix on Mac or PC There isn't an official Netflix app in the Mac App Store, which means there's no way to download Netflix content for offline viewing like there is on your iOS devices. And while there is a Netflix app for PCs running Windows 10, the app doesn't allow you to easily download Netflix to watch offline.
- Until recently, if you wanted to download Netflix shows onto your laptop, you'd have to know your way around the dodgy download sites. Now you can do it with a clean conscience. The Netflix Windows Store app, only available on Windows 10, has just been updated with the downloads feature that was introduced on Android and iOS devices some.
If you're trying to watch something in the Apple TV app on your smart TV or streaming device, turn off your TV or streaming device, then turn it back on.
Check your Internet connection
If you're currently using a cellular connection, try to connect to Wi-Fi. If you're trying to watch something in the Apple TV app on your smart TV or streaming device, contact your TV's manufacturer for help connecting to your home Wi-Fi network.
Make sure that your Wi-Fi router is 802.11a/g/n/ac compatible. Streaming HD content requires 8 Mbit/s or faster. Slower tiers of Wi-Fi connections might not be fast enough to stream HD video content.
Check the activity on your home network
If family members or friends are using the same Internet network, ask them to temporarily pause their Internet activities.
When multiple devices use the same Internet network for intensive activities, such as gaming, video streaming, or backing up, it might slow down the speed of your local network.
Try watching on another device
See if you can stream your movie or TV show on another device using the same Wi-Fi or cellular connection. If you can't, the issue might be with your network and not your device. Contact your Internet service provider for help.
Check for service interruptions
Check to see if any Apple Media Service has a service interruption, or check a third-party provider's website to see if they list any interruptions.
If there are service interruptions, try to stream or watch the video later.
Try downloading the video instead
To download a purchased video, tap or click the cloud download icon. Downloading a video might take longer before you can start watching than if you stream it, but will allow you to watch the video all the way through without interruptions.
You can't download movies or TV shows to Apple TV, smart TVs, or streaming devices. You can only download HDR content on certain iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch models, and you can't download 4K video content to any device.
