Re: linking Roku account to new smart tv

Jump to solution

@Ruva, check the email address that's displayed on the TV under Settings->System->About.  Is it yours?  If so, use that email address to log in at https://my.roku.com.  If it's not, you'll have to factory reset the TV to link it to your Roku account.  You can find "factory reset" under Settings->System->Advanced system settings.  There is no other way to link a Roku device to a Roku account.

I had previously checked this bulletin board because I couldn't get my new Roku TV to send an activation email after entering it 3 times. THEN, I realized I was entering the email in ALL CAPITALS, when my original account had the email in lower case. Problem solved. All set now.
