How do I sign back into Disney+ and Hulu on a Roku TV after a password reset fails?

Answer

Reset the Disney/MyDisney password on a phone or computer first, confirm that email works there, restart the Roku, then sign into Disney+ and Hulu on the TV with the same email. Fix billing in the Disney account if the password works but the apps still block playback.

Before you start: stop right away if…

  • Stop if a popup or text asks you to pay a third party to unlock Disney+ or Hulu.

Follow these steps

  1. Finish password reset on a phone or computer

    On a phone or computer browser, open Disney's official account reset or MyDisney sign-in page, request a reset for the account email, and set a new password before returning to the TV.

    You should see: You can sign in successfully on the phone with the new password.

  2. Restart the Roku

    On the Roku, go to Settings, then System, then Power, then System restart, and wait for the home screen to return.

    You should see: Roku reboots cleanly and the Disney+ and Hulu apps are ready to open again.

  3. Sign into Disney+ on the TV

    Open Disney+ first and sign in with the same email and new password that work on the phone.

    You should see: Disney+ accepts the sign-in or shows a clear billing or profile error instead of a password loop.

  4. Sign into Hulu with the same account path

    Open Hulu and sign in with the email tied to the Disney bundle or Hulu account. If Hulu is part of a Disney bundle, use the same recovered Disney credentials where prompted.

    You should see: Hulu signs in or clearly asks for a separate Hulu password or bundle activation step.

  5. Check Disney account billing if apps still block

    On a phone or computer, open Disney+ or MyDisney account billing, confirm the subscription is active, and update the payment method if Disney reports a billing problem.

    You should see: The account shows active service and the TV apps can stream after you sign in again.

Extra tips

What to look for: Whether the same email can sign in on a phone, any password-reset or payment error on Disney's site, and whether Roku opens Disney+ and Hulu after a system restart.

Before you change anything: Use the email address tied to Disney+ and Hulu. Complete password reset on a phone or computer before retrying the TV. Keep payment method details ready if the account asks to update billing. Never share account codes with unexpected callers.
