Why isn't YouTube on my screen?

Community Answer

YouTube isn't an administrative application. You'll have to download it yourself from the app store.

How can I get my local channels on Roku?

Community Answer

You'll have to go through a package such as YouTube TV (or streaming service through your local cable company) or use an antenna on a different port on your TV.

You are trying to log in several times. Just log in once and select your name from the “Who’s watching YouTube” screen.

Question

What do I do if I get the hourglass on my screen and then nothing?

Community Answer

It’s probably a RAM fillip or CPU overload. Just turn it on wait 60 seconds and then turn it back on again. It should reboot and you can select YouTube from home.
