You can actually find out for sure if this is the case by checking a <a href=\"https:\/\/downdetector.com\/status\/amazon-prime-instant-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">server status page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If it's a server problem that you're facing, there's really nothing you can do other than wait for Amazon to take care of things from their end. Also, if it is in fact server problems that you're dealing with, you might see other users on social media complain about the same issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With that out of the way, let's get into all the fixes to try.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Streaming-Amazon-Video-on-Laptop-1200x800.jpg\" alt=\"Streaming Amazon Video on Laptop\" class=\"wp-image-7599\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Streaming-Amazon-Video-on-Laptop.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Streaming-Amazon-Video-on-Laptop-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Streaming-Amazon-Video-on-Laptop-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_1_Check_Your_Network_Connection\"><\/span>Solution 1: Check Your Network Connection<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the time, the Amazon Prime error pops up when you're facing some kind of network issue. As mentioned in my introduction, your internet speed might be slow. Sites like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.speedtest.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Ookla<\/a> can help you figure this out. Once you know for certain that it's your internet speed that's the problem, you can contact your internet service provider to try and upgrade your data package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, the problematic network connection might be due to your router glitching out. It's hard to say why this happened, but you should be able to fix it by turning your modem on and then off. Remember to remove the plug from its power source while it's turned off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, I also have to mention that your network connectivity issues can be due to your ISP's towers being down. You might've received a text about this: you'll have to wait for them to take care of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_2_Restart_the_Amazon_Fire_TV_Cube\"><\/span>Solution 2: Restart the Amazon Fire TV Cube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Apart from a network issue, the Prime Video error can be due to your streaming device glitching out. By far, the easiest way to fix it and get back to streaming content again would be to try to restart. On devices like the Amazon Fire TV, you should disconnect it from the power source before you reboot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_3_Force_Stop_Prime_Video_Application\"><\/span>Solution 3: Force Stop Prime Video Application<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of the device, you're streaming on glitching out, it might be the Amazon Prime app that's the culprit. It's hard to say why exactly it's glitching, but you should be able to clear it by force-stopping the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_4_Clear_Cache_on_Prime_Video_Application\"><\/span>Solution 4: Clear Cache on Prime Video Application<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A lot of the time, the Prime video error code can be due to Amazon's cache becoming corrupt. Essentially, this means that something has gone wrong with its temporary memory. Fixing the Amazon Prime Error will be easy, if this is the case, as all you have to do is clear data and cache.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The process to do this can really differ. On devices like the Amazon Fire TV, you'll have to head to the Manage Installed Applications section, while you'll have to head to Storage on Androids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_5_Uninstall_and_Reinstall_Amazon_Prime_Video_App\"><\/span>Solution 5: Uninstall and Reinstall Amazon Prime Video App<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Last but not least, you can try uninstalling and then reinstalling the Amazon Prime app. There might be some kind of major software problem on it that only this can solve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the app has been uninstalled, you can head to your app store, and then reinstall Amazon Prime. Hopefully, you no longer have to deal with the error code 1061 message anymore. But if the only tip left that I'd recommend would be getting in touch with the Amazon Prime team.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Television-Screen-with-Prime-Video-Logo-1200x800.jpg\" alt=\"Television Screen with Prime Video Logo\" class=\"wp-image-7600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Television-Screen-with-Prime-Video-Logo.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Television-Screen-with-Prime-Video-Logo-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Television-Screen-with-Prime-Video-Logo-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/resources\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read more resources<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_Thoughts\"><\/span>Final Thoughts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the Amazon Prime Video error code is annoying, it's relatively easy to fix. You usually face it when you have some kind of network connection issue - this might be due to weak bandwidth strength, or your router acting up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the Amazon Prime video error can also be due to other problems too, like your streaming device, such as your Fire TV stick malfunctioning: you'd have to restart your Fire TV stick to fix the error message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hopefully, you found everything that was discussed useful, and are able to enjoy your streaming experience now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you keep getting hit with error code 1061, you most likely are dealing with some kind of internet issue.
