Help, when i click on pbs, goes to service but then clicks back to home page.  Have deleted, re installed, up dated and nothing changes.  Help?

@Mike1234568911-

After removing the channel, but BEFORE reinstalling it, did you RESTART** your Roku to clear its memory cache? Without the restart you may not get a clean reinstall.  This is not a cure-all but at least it will assure you of having an uncorrupted copy of the current channel app.
 
Depending on your Roku model number you'll find the "System restart" option under either "Settings > System > Power" or under "Settings > System".   If you don't have sufficient control to use the menus, or if it is just more convenient, you can also restart by pulling the power plug for a short while, then plugging it back in.
 
**On a Roku TV with "Fast TV Start" enabled, turning the TV off/on only puts you in/out of a low power standby state, it does NOT give you a complete restart.  Use the methods above.

None of those steps work. I have tried everything that has been suggested. I wrote about this on another thread. Seems like many people are having this problem.

I am having the same issue.  I tried all the restarts, turned tv off and on.  Nothing works
