Anyplay option not showing up

In the Xfinity TV app the Anyplay option dose not show up as something I can turn on. Any ideas?

Has it worked before?  Is this a new installation or have you had it working for a while?

 

Did you go through the troubleshooting tips at the AnyPlay page here?

This is a new installation. I went through all the troubleshooting steps. I can only guess that there is a problem getting the app to unhide the setting.

Before the AnyPlay shows up in the app the device must be properly activated to your account.

 

Make sure the US/DS LED's are solid.  Reboot the Televation box.

 

Check that the AnyPlay still showup on the http://xfinitytv.comcast.net/rh device page.  It must show up before anything else happens.

Confirm you have a good RF signal going into the Televation box, and that you have connected the ethernet cable to the router.

It is in my list of devices on that page and I can access the remote diagnostic screen to verify network connectivity.

I only have experience with IOS, so ComcastJoe might be able to help when he gets online in the morning.  

 

In the mean time, if you haven't uninstalled / reinstalled the app since the AnyPlay was installed, I suggest doing that next.

 

You might want to PM ComcastJoe and point to this thread for reference.  Find a post by ComcastJoe, click on his name in red and look on the right for a link to send a personal message.

Can you private message me the serial number of your AnyPlay device so I can further assist you?

Click the Settings within the app and make sure AnyPlay is turned on. I am sorry I should of asked this earlier but I thought you already did this troubleshooting step. After reading through it again, I am not sure you have.

 

Let me know the results.

I did complete that step. The whole problem is that the setting to turn Anyplay on and off dose not show up in the first place.
