I’m running the Iphone4 on Verizon and the video quality is awesome and it works great but for some reason it only works while on wifi for me. But that isn’t why I’m posting now actually. My issue is I can watch every show but Golgo13. I was halfway done with the season and now I can’t get any of the episodes to play on my device. Any idea what would be causing this? I tried rebooting the Iphone and it still isn’t working. Thanks.

Are you using the App or viewing through Mobile Safari?

If you are using the App, it only works with Wifi.

Let me know which you are using and I can better troubleshoot your issue.

Hello,

I can’t seem to get High School of he Dead to work on my ipad Anime Network app. There is no triangle play button available when I go into the HOTD series.

Has anyone else had a problem like this?

Thank you for your help,

It will notify the correct people automatically then.

Thanks for reporting in.

  1. iPad
  2. Ipad 1st gen
  3. 4.3
  4. WiFi
  5. App
  6. Any High School of the Dead episode
  7. When I go into the High School of the Dead episode selection screen, it won’t allow me to play any episodes. There is no triangle button to let me play it.

Sorry about posting in the wrong spot. Thank you. http://www.theanimenetwork.com/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/photo1.png

At present, we have had to restrict TV-MA content from the App in order for it to be approved by Apple. You can watch High School of the Dead on your iPad through Safari.

I’m unable to watch Elfen Lied on my iPod touch it play other animes but not that one and my parental settings are off so is it my ipod or the app?

The post before yours should apply to all shows with TV-MA. Parental settings won’t make a difference if I am reading right. So in order to view any TV-MA titles you’d have to use Safari because of Apple not liking the Mature stuff.

That is correct.

Apple’s Review Process & Guidelines are very particular about content in the apps in their store, regardless of an app’s use of parental controls or 18+ ratings. (Mostly because parents don’t set them up or monitor their children or well, act like parents) To comply with these guidelines, we are restricting TV-MA content (content that has particularly graphic violence, explicit nudity, profanity and sexual situations) from playing in the app.

These titles can be watched on your iOS Devices through Safari on our website.

Apple’s guidelines are always evolving and there is a level of subjectivity in what an App/Update Reviewer deems as ā€œover the lineā€, so from time to time, we may have to exclude a new or previously available title or episode.

OK thanks for the information didn’t know Apple products did that thank for you help I’ll try Safari then
