ESPN says it’s an Adobe login issue

Adobe???

I have 3 different Samsung TVs in my house. No issues with ESPN or any of the apps. Maybe it's the cable provider? I have Spectrum.

All of my TV's are Samsung and we have no issue with the ESPN App. Strange you're getting an Adobe error.

Every Samsung TV I've ever owned has played the ESPN app with no issue at all.

I have a similar issue. ESPN app on the Samsung will play any game EXCEPT LSU baseball. No clue why? Can watch from my phone or laptop easily. I have the HULU/ESPN subscription and the ESPN app on the smart tv.
I'm perplexed.

The ESPN app just sucks in general.

Mine does this all the time. Go to the settings sign out then sign back in and it should be working.

Mine has been a pain in the past but has worked well this year. I have a fire stick plugged into the back of the TV for a backup.

Check to see if your Samsung smart TV needs an update. Go into settings and click update now. Also go to Samsung’s website and check if a manual update is available.

Sometimes a manual update is available but Samsung is slow providing an automatic update. Use a flash drive to download the update and then upload it to your TV’s usb port.

The update may have an updated ESPN app. Uninstall the existing ESPN app and then get the the theoretical new ESPN app from the Samsung App Store.

Best of luck.

My Samsung in the living room has worked fine. No problem with the app. Worked fine all weekend until today. I installed the app on a Vizio 24" I placed in the kitchen. Nòw Samsung in the LR unable to login. Unable to figure the problem, I guess I spend the day tomorrow with Mike from Tech Support.

I have a similar issue. 3 older samsungs play espn+ content fine. New one will not play anything on secn+ on espn+app. I can watch espn+ content just not anything that goes through tv provider like secn+. After talking to espn tech support it’s a known issue with newer samsung tv’s with no fix as of now. I’ve reset tv, router. Loggednin and out on app and with tv provider.
