" Well, that didn't go to plan...
NOW TV isn't loading. Please try again in a bit."
This is the message that I am constantly getting.
If i disconnect my ethernet and power the TV off for a few minutes, power back on , it comes to life.
Next day start NOW TV app, same message as above, yet all other apps work just fine, thank you.
Anyone got an answer for this or even a PERMANENT fix.
Solved! Go to Solution.

There are several similar threads over the last month or 2. It seems that the only fix so far is to do a factory reset of the TV. Obviously that may mean seeing up all your apps again.

So I guess this is an LG TV from 2014 or earlier, with the NetCast OS?
Smart TVs are built with very little software capability in reserve, and no doubt you would agree that all things internet have moved on a great deal since 2014?
So the smart apps die one by one, as either the TVs run out of puff to run the latest versions, or the makers of those latest versions decline to keep allowing for the limitations of the earlier TVs.
And the convoy steams on, no longer held back by the slowest ship, which they leave behind.
But the answer, the one that makes my 2012 Samsung TV smarter than it was in 2012, never mind just ‘as smart’, is a Stick - a Roku Stick in my case, with all the smart apps I could want, though a NowTV stick would provide many of them.
And speaking of NowTV sticks, if you get on to Live Chat and explain that your six-years old, or possibly older, TV has just been superannuated, they will like as not send you a NowTV stick, at no cost to you, that you can plug into it to keep NowTV going for you.

Mine is a 2019 version so that's obviously not the issue.

Have you tried either of the 2 options.
1. Delete and reinstall the app?
2. Set your TV back to factory settings?
This option often is successful in clearing bugs in the software.
Worst case you'll need to report it as a fault with Now TV

I've had this problem on a 2015 LG TV and I've just resolved it myself.
Go into the apps on your LG TV and delete the nowtv app
Go into the LG content store and search for now tv
Download the updated now tv app again
Launch the app and you should be back in business, well it worked for me so hopefully it will for you as well

When i had an LG TV I found that the Now TV app was very unreliable.
A few times setting the TV back to factory settings often is best for squashing bugs. Have you tried setting it back to factory settings?

Hi,
Apart from buffering now and again I didn’t really have trouble with the app. The stick, however, is a nightmare.
I did reset. Made the other apps (prime, Disney) even slower. After I reset, it wouldn’t even load. Just gave me the Gangs picture and a QR code...
