Has anyone successfully connected their iphone or other device to this TV and been able to watch youtube or content from amazon prime or netflix?

I don't know about Amazon Prime. I can mirror my MacBook Pro on the TV by using a cord, but for Netflix I just use an AppleTV in one of the HDMI slots and stream all day long--works great. You can also get a WiFi capable DVD player and stream to Netflix from there and also Hulu. So far as I know, you can't stream Amazon Prime to your TV unless you are connecting your computer to the TV with a cord and mirroring the screen from there....I just use my iPad if watching Amazon Prime.

Also both AppleTV and WiFi capable DVD players I have seen allow you to watch YouTube....

Yes, I've connected my Apple MacBook Pro to it, using an HDMI adapter. I also use Roku, instead of cable for many of my non-broadcast viewing options -such as Netflix, Amazon, Prime, and MLB TV. Works great!

Hi Lonnie,I haven't tried it with Amazon Prime but have used it with Netflix. I don't believe that you can record shows from these services but I believe that you should have no trouble viewing content.Enjoy,Bob

I no longer own the tv since it broke down on me 1 year and 1 month after purchase. I didn't get to find out if you could Hooke it up to amazon prime. I always had a wifi blue ray and hook everything there.

I have had good luck with the Roku and also an Apple TV in combination with an iPad. The network speed makes the biggest difference in picture quality

Amazon Prime works as an app on this TV for me. I had to perform a software update when I first received it in order to make it work, but it did eventually let me enter my credentials and watch Amazon Prime video.

I have found the same problem, after 8 hours of samsung UN46D7000 tv vs amazon instant video! At least I can stop pulling out my hair trying to make it work. Ya think they could just send the frickn' app the tv with all the other crap on there we will never use.

Good luck! After being hung up on three times when I called the company for assistance I gave up and bought an Apple TV to watch my Netflix through. This machine is trash, and it's customer service is worse! At least the blu ray player works!

I have my tv set up with apple tv and i have access to Netflix, hulu plus, all iTunes content & many others. I can also connect my lap wirelessly for streaming amazon prime.

This particular model is not internet ready. I'm sure that Samsung has another model that would meet your needs, if amazon prime needs it. They're great TVs.

On it's own, this TV does not play Netflix. You need an external device like a PS3, Roku or Apple TV which has Netflix capabilities.

This is an old TV, so it's not a "smart" TV. You'll need a 3rd party device (ie: Chromecast, Amazon Fire TV, etc) in order to run any app like Amazon Video, Netflix, etc.

I have the UN46D6000 (the next smaller tv in this family) and there's no amazon video app. After a while, I found the whole 'smart tv' part of these TV too slow and unstable as well, so I ended up buying a Roku (http://www.roku.com/) and haven't looked back (though I use the youtube app on the TV itself sometimes, since the Roku still doesn't have Youtube). If you're an apple fan, you might want to check out the Apple TV.

You can get the netflix app from amazon app store and it will work but the videos and the sound are not in sync. It's very jerky. I'm not sure if there is a way to make it work better or not.

It's important to know which particular connector cord you're using, & what you're trying to achieve. If you're trying to play music or Netflix/YouTube Player, the red/white/yellow cords must be plugged into the audio/video input outlets on the tv, and select audio/video input or output 1 or 2 (depending on which you plug into) If you wish to only play photo slide shows, then it's generally the HDMI USB port(& selecting the usb option with your remote). Not knowing what you're attempting to play, I recommend trying each cord and using your remote audio/video input/output settings - to experiment FYI: I use this for both my iPad AND iPhone - have not yet tried with dig. camera, but that's the same pretty much, as using your iphone to display the pics Mine actually works best with playing Netflix thru my iPhone, as the iPad has an angled port, and setting the iPad down with the cord in, requires that the edge of the pad with cord in, has to hang over the edge of your t.v. stand, to not interfere with the connection. Honestly, I LOVE this device - I would NOT give up or get frustrated - it took me a whole day to figure the thing out (because I'm too impatient to read, and don't always trust instructions)

There is no "Amazon Prime app for Apple TV". The Apple TV does not support Amazon Prime. But if you have the Amazon Prime app for your phone, you can start the movie on your phone and then push the video to the Apple TV using AirPlay. At least that's what I've heard, but I have not tried it myself.
