I have just swithed on my firestick 4k Max and all my external apps on the flash drive are greyed out and when I try to open them message says usb is not compatible with amazon. Anyone else have this problem?

I have had this happen.
To fix it I do the following.
1: give it some time and they will load
2: restart the firestick
3: unplug the memory stick and reinsert it
(I have never had to do step 3, but have seen this fix posted before by a repeatable member)

You could also go into "My Fire TV>USBDrive>Eject USB Drive>Remove drive>reinstall and follow the on screen prompts.
Thank you, all good, the problem has now been fixed.

Hi, i did an update on the firestick, restarted it, then I took out the memory stick and then put it back in and that solved the problem.
