Tv says not enough memory

I have a Panasonic Vieja flatscreen. Now when I turn TV on it says “not enough memory” to load YouTube TV. I have had YouTube, Pandora and Netflix on this TV for years. I have deleted Pandora and Netflix on the TV. I still can’t watch YouTube TV due to lack of memory. Can someone give me some advice. Thank you.

Re: Tv says not enough memory

What is the make/model number of this TV? 

Are you using a Roku device with this TV?  If so, do a system restart or unplug power for 60 seconds on the Roku.  System Restart - Home, settings, system, power, system restart.

If this is an older TV, it is possible there are no more firmware updates for the TV, then most likely the old apps will no longer work and the newer apps are not compatible.  I do not believe Panasonic makes TVs with a Roku operating system and I do not know what type of operating system it uses for apps.  TV manufacturers are notorious for not keeping their operating systems up to date or supported and if this TV is more than a few years old, then that is likely the case.    

You could try unplugging your TV from power for 60 seconds to clear the TVs cache and see if that helps.   It is possible that the TVs operating system is obsolete, or the memory is corrupt and no longer working like it should.   If the internal memory has gone bad and unplugging and/or factory resetting doesn't help, then you would need to contact Panasonic customer support directly.

Apps say not enough memory

Several of my apps say not enough memory when I try to watch them. I’ve been watching them forever and haven’t added any apps in a long time.

Re: Apps say not enough memory

My Roku TV has started the same thing. I haven't added anything. I hope someone has answers. I went to the site and all it is saying is to add micro SD card. I may be mistaken but I don't think I have a slot on the back of the TV

@74NAna74-

Those inadequate memory warnings are often a symptom of the Roku memory cache getting corrupted.  Deleting channel app after channel app does not make the warnings go away.  Clearing the memory cache should cure the problem.   

The easiest way to do this is to RESTART your Roku.  (For Roku TV users reading this: if you have "Fast TV start" enabled, turning the TV off and back on just puts it into and out of a standby state and does NOT give you a complete restart, so use the methods below.)   

Depending on your Roku model you'll find the "System restart" option under "Settings > System > Power", or on models without a Power option, under "Settings > System".   

If a restart doesn't do it, or if you don't have sufficient control with the remote to navigate the Roku menus, you can also restart by pulling the power plug to the Roku for a few seconds then plugging it back in and waiting for it to restart.

Re: Apps say not enough memory

@Papa01 @Missf123 Either do a system restart in the settings or unplug the power from the Roku device or TV for 60 seconds to help clear the cache of the device.

Re: Apps say not enough memory

Hi, @Papa01 @Missf123 

Thanks for reaching out!

I understand that you've encountered an issue with not having enough memory when accessing an app. 

Let's try performing a system restart to address the issue. Follow the steps below:

To system restart your Roku device, navigate to Settings > System > Power > System Restart. 

Give this a try, let us know how it works.

Thanks,
