Re: Problem getting Sirius XM to play on my Echo or iPhone

[Dan Yates]

Hey Alan, I’m away from home at the moment but did ask my iPhone SiriusXM app to play a station by name and it immediately responded. When I returned home, I will check with echo. I’m hoping you’re just having a temporary glitch there.

When I ask my Echo to play channel 7 or 70s on 7, I get a response of the announcement of the channel name followed by “Hmmm, I’m having trouble playing that right now.” I went to the Sirius skill on my Amazon Alexa app on my iPhone and disabled it and then reenabled it but this had no effect. When I open the Sirius app on my iPhone and attempt to play a channel by executing its play button, nothing is played on my iPhone and the play button appears to sort of blink.  I suspect Sirius has done something to mess up things no doubt related to security in order to protect us from ourselves . I attempted to sign into Sirius on my desktop computer running Windows 10 with Firefox and noted that it forced me to receive a verification code. While I was successful in signing in, none of the channels play when executing their play button but instead provide a popup box stating “We’re having trouble playing this.” Before I consider what will no doubt be a vain attempt to cancel my Sirius subscription, I wanted comments from the list on what others are experiencing with Sirius.   Thanks in advance for your replies.   Alan Lemly -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.   If you have any questions or concerns about the running of this list, or if you feel that a member's post is inappropriate, please contact the owners or moderators directly rather than posting on the list itself.   Your V iPhone list moderator is Mark Taylor.
