Flickr on AppleTV

I tried my account name, my full name, my email, even various numerical id’s that seemed to be associated with my, but it just claimed I didn’t exist.

Whilst researching my ongoing issue with Apple TV not remembering my Password, I came across a solution:

You have to login to the apple privacy settings and “Uncheck the box that says something about hiding your profile from searches.” Many thanks to vTwo for posting that solution.

Bingo, everything now works.
