If other apps don't work or you get a network error, it usually means your device isn't connected.

Note:

To get the connection steps for your device:

  • Check the instructions or manual that came with your device.

  • Contact the device's manufacturer for help connecting your device to the internet.

If your device is connected and you still have issues, go to the next steps.
