Whatever you folks did worked for a day or two but stopped today, and I get the same message about unavailable stations as others have reported on TVOS. iPad and iPhone apps continue to work.

This started happening again this morning.

Pandora is showing "this station is not available. Please check another station" but all stations are like this. Thus has been going on for 2 days. I have hard restarted , updated the apple tv device software, deleted the Pandora device and reloaded it, unplugged the apple tv device. Still not working, but is working on my android Samsung Galaxy Edge 6 cell phone. Any more suggestions?

Today, November 20, 2019, Pandora has not been working for the past 2 days.  It has the same message, this station os currently not working, please try another station.  But none of them are working on apple tv 4 gen.

I am having the very same problem. Apple TV cannot connect to any channel. I certainly do not want to pay for a service I do not get. All my other devices stream but the Apple TV is our main source. Please do not charge my account f this is not resolved in a timely manner. 6:38 am 11/20/2019

I'm experiencing same issue. on 11/20/19. Uninstall/reinstall didn't resolve this. Rebooted apple tv, still having same issue. Is this a Pandora server issue? My i-phone works fine.

I'm having same issue.

I have the same issue! Error message, "This station is not currently available. Please choose another station instead." It sounds like a revision to AppleTV software broke Pandora. Probably nothing we can do but wait for Apple and/or Pandora to revise their software. Pandora is working fine for me on other devices. I do have a paid subscription though.

Same here; all channels say "not available right now try another channel"  apps on iphone, iPad work, as does browser interface on computer.  It's just the Apple TV that doesn't work.  I've rebooted, deleted and redownloaded the app, etc.  Nothing helps.

I'm still getting that error message that everyone else is reporting.

Same problem here. I wonder if this is related to the "fix" they rolled out for the Sleep timer issue.

[zammikiel]

wonder if this is an issue related to the Sleep Timer "fix" just rolled out.

Hi Erick,

I am having the same issue.  The only problem is with Apple TV (tvOS 13.2). For EVERY station I get the message that  it is not available and I should try a different station. I deleted Pandora app and re-insetalled but still get the same problem. The Apple TV is conneccted to the internet via WiFi in the house. Has worked well previous to yesterday 11/19.  It still works on both my Iphone and Mac book.

Please help!

[Richraine]

I have exactly the same problem. Pandora will not play on Apple TVs, but is fine with any other device. I have no alternative but to switch to Apple Music. If possible please notify all of us that are having this problem if it is ever resolved.
