I know I had this working last year, but it no longer works.

 

I am trying to select Sky TV as my Provider in order to stream sports from espn.com.au (Watch ESPN: Online Live Sports, Replays, Highlights). I click on 'ESPN Play Provider', a popup appears, and the only TV Provider is Sky TV. I select that and it attempts to open this URL - https://www.skytv.co.nz/skyid/signin.html?skin=isky&redirect=http://www.skytv.co.nz/espn/redirect but that fails.

 

 

I have tried this on multiple browsers on the same PC and on multiple PCs. None of them work. I have cleared the cache multiple times. No luck so far. Sky was of little help. They suggested that I go to ESPN. ESPN said to go to Sky.  I can successfully login directly to Sky on any PC and I have Sky Sports on my account.

 

Any ideas?

 

I can get this to work on my android mobile though.

im not sure why it is not working for you but when i do it it goes to the sign in page and my account comes up, auto filled and i click to log on. so there is something your end that is stopping it.





Common sense is not as common as you think.

Ok, I think I fixed it!

 

I opened ESPN on a browser on my mobile and clicked on 'ESPN TV Provider' and the usual screen appeared, I selected Sky TV, and it redirected me to 'https://espn-auth.sky.co.nz' So, I tried that URL on my Windows PC and bingo! It logged me in, and I can now watch sports from ESPN.com.au!
