Anyone know of a way I can watch abc live via appletv? I have directv now but abc is not a channel in my package. Nor will it work on the abc app that I downloaded. The abc apps says that live tv is not available in the New Orleans area. Thanks in advanced

Who's your internet provider? I'm in the same boat and was able to use my uverse login on watchespn and watch that way.

Didn’t they just get rid of NBC too?

You're in NOLA? Just get an antenna. You don't even have to face it in the direction of ABC or put it by a window to get that signal

No ABC or Fox around here on Direct. Lot's of pissed off people round here, chew tobacco, chew tobacco, spit.

First step is call Direct TV and bitch for a credit on your bill..
Then get an antenna.. I heard someone on here say that DTV is sending people antennas..Ask about that when you call.

I hear you. Dishnet was without ABC for nearly a year. Just got it back a couple of weeks ago. In my case, I never really missed it (except for Vanna White) so I didn't need to look for alternatives.

My FIL called and asked about a free antenna and the rep said, “Free what.”

We have ABC here in Baton Rouge but no Fox. I called them yesterday and told them the only way I would not cancel was to give me the NFL package for free and after 30 minutes of haggling they finally did.

They are sending me some kind of local channel connector to plug into the receiver so I can catch fox.

I just cut off my ATT for the same reason. Lost the NFL Network then lost NBC. I told them to hit the f’ing road.

I live north of B’ham and have the DirecTV Now app at home and on my phone. I just checked on my phone (I can stream it live without using up data because my cell provider is AT&T) and I still have ABC. Not sure why you’re having issues. Maybe it has something to do with your local ABC station.

I live in the Pensacola area and we have been without NBC and CBS for several months now. Finally cut the cord. Saves me close to $100 a month.

Damn I hate DirecTV! Good riddance assholes!

Won't the home Saints games be blacked out on the Sunday ticket?

Why anybody pays that much for nothing is beyond me. Streaming packages cost less and you don't need any bulky equipment or companies to come set it up.
