If you’ve ever started up Disney+ on your device and gotten an error message that says Error Code 39: ‘We’re sorry, but we cannot play the video…’ you might be wondering what you can do to fix it.


What does Error Code 39: ‘We’re sorry, but we cannot play the video…’ on Disney+ mean?

This is usually the result of requested content being temporarily inaccessible. Possible causes include:

  • Accessing Disney+ from an unsupported device or configuration
  • Unstable internet connection or Wi-Fi signal
  • An unusually high number of simultaneous requests for specific content

 


How To Fix Error Code 39: ‘We’re sorry, but we cannot play the video…’ on Disney+?

To fix this problem, check the following:

  • Check your internet connection is working correctly.  I’d recommend giving your router a reboot as well if the problem persists.
  • Try logging into Disney+ on a different device, such as your phone, web browser, or video game console.  If it works, you’ve now eliminated that the problem is your account or if it’s your internet, but restricted to your device.
  • Close down the Disney+ app fully and relaunch the Disney+ app or refresh the Disney+ site and try playing the video again in a few minutes.
  • Power down or restart your device, and then try relaunching the Disney+ app once rebooted
  • Make sure your device is supported and that the latest version of the app is installed.
  • Uninstall the Disney+ app on your device and reinstall it
  • If you use a VPN, turn this off and try using Disney+ again
