Down for Maintenance

Jump to solution

Bought a smart tv with Roku built in. When I click the activation code it says down for maintenance? I have setup several other TV's and never run into this. What can I do??

If using Chrome, copy email link Roku sent  to incognito tab. It should then work.

ROKU device activation link unavailable

Jump to solution

I just bought a ROKU TV AND I’ve been trying to set up my tv and I need a activation code. EVERYTIME I click the link it’s saying 

“Temporarily down for maintenance We are performing maintenance. We should be back online shortly.”

If you are experiencing an issue with being unable to activate your Roku device due to the site being down, we would recommend clearing the cookies of your web browser and trying again.

Re: Can not activate ‘down for maintenance’ message

Jump to solution

Idk a real solution has been provided by ROKU but the fix that I found was to:

1. Open the link @My74ghia provided. (It will say expired but leave the tab/page open)

2. Press * on your device

3. click change email. (Don’t actually change your email)

4. Return to your email inbox

5. Click the new activation link (may need to refresh for it to populate)

I just setup 3 new Roku TVs using this method, I hope it helps you all as well.
