Apple tv no longer starts with airplay

Previous I never needed to use the Apple tv remote to start my ATV 3.
When I used the airplay function on my iPad it automatically started. One of the most recent updates must have broken/removed that function.
Is it just me or did Apple remove that functionality? Anyway to get it back?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I assume this is an Apple TV 1
Try de/re connecting your iTunes library from your Apple TV; disconnect from the Apple TV (Settings/Computers/Your_Library) and reconnect again (Settings/Computers/Connect_to_iTunes) - You will need to re-sync previously synced content.

What apple certification should I start with?

What apple certification should I start with?
I am confused with which certifications I should work on first to be able to work as a technician and application support individual.

I would start with the basic Mac Integration. It's a quick and easy test to see if you know the basics. If you can pass this, then move foward from there.
Do you plan on taking clases or self study?

Depending on how long the site has been active, it may be

Multiple Apple Remotes no longer work with Apple TV!

I've been using Apple TVs since the minute Steve Jobs introduced them in 2007. I bought the 2nd and 3rd Generation Apple TVs the minute each of them were introduced. I've been watching every Apple Keynote Address since they were available online or on CDs from the early 1990s, on my HDTV via my latest Apple TV when that was possible. I watch far more TV through my Apple TV than via my Cable Box, much of it music and music videos from iTunes on my 2006 Mac Pro! But as of YESTERDAY I am seriously thinking of getting another, ANY OTHER manufacturer's similar internet streaming box!!!
WHY??? Because YESTERDAY, for no apparent reason except some programmer's or software engineer's stupidity, my Apple TV stopped working with all but ONE of my Apple REMOTES!!!
Why is that stupid? Because, in my household there are three people who use Apple TV all day, and each of them have an aluminum Apple Remote which they all use to control what the Apple TV is streaming. We have two other Apple Remotes lying around in case one of us misplaces his or her Apple Remote, which happens occasionally. ALL FIVE of the Apple Remotes, just like the beige plastic Apple Remotes that they replaced, always worked with all three of my Apple TVs! Then yesterday, suddenly, only the LAST Apple Remote that was paired with this 3rd Generation Apple TV is able to control it.
I've spent HOURS trying to fix this. This wasn't caused by an Automatic Update to the Apple TV's iOS; there has been no update in recent days. I've got Automatic Update turned on, just as I, a good Apple citizen, have my Apple TV set up to automatically send back Usage Data to Apple. I've rebooted my Apple TV. I've put brand new 2032 button batteries into my Apple Remotes. I pulled the power cord out of my Apple TV for 15 seconds and again for five minutes and then restarted it. As per instructions, I have Unpaired and re-Paired each and all of my 5 Apple Remotes. All to no avail. Only the last Apple Remote that was paired with the Apple TV works! Horrible. And STUPID, if it was a deliberate programming decision and it was introduced in a minor automatic update.
Worse, I've been using the Remote app on my 5th Generation iPod touch to replace ONE of the unusable Apple Remotes, and as of a couple of minutes ago even THAT stopped working with my Apple TV! Well, I was able to fix that fairly easily by pairing the iPod touch Remote app with my Mac Pro and then pairing it again with my Apple TV. But I don't think that solution would be so easy for many non-technologically-inclined users. I also don't think that a $200 or $300 iPod touch is a very acceptable replacement for a $20 Apple Remote, especially since everyone buys iPod touches for totally different uses (I use mine primarily for taking notes using voice-activated audio or video -- it is by far the best device for that purpose out there -- police departments should take note).
I'm hoping that this multiple Apple Remote problem somehow resolves itself, unless it is a hardware problem with my Apple TV. If so, I can hold out until Apple's media event next week, which I HOPE will premiere a new 4th Generation Apple TV, hopefully which will once again allow my five Apple Remotes to all control my Apple TV interdependently, without having to Unpair and Pair each one each time you wanted to use it, requiring you to quit whichever Apple TV app you were using each time, or alternatively to use Sneaker-Net to deliver the one working Apple Remote to each person who wants to use it, which can be difficult since at least one of the users is very ill! (Whew! A long sentence. But I hope you get the point.)
Two days ago, I could never have imagined myself getting a Roku or an Amazon, Sony, Microsoft or some other streaming device. It just proves how fast a stupid little decision (if it was deliberate) can turn EVERYTHING around!

People have a misconception with remote pairing (as does the description on this page -> Pairing your Apple Remote with your computer - Apple Support).
The 1st paragraph is incorrect.
The 2nd paragraph is correct.
"If you have several Mac computers or an Apple TV that use the Apple remote, or other devices with integrated infrared ("IR") receivers in one room, you can "pair" your Apple Remote with a specific Apple device so it doesn't interfere with other Apple devices or IR devices nearby.
Pairing allows you to set the receiving Apple device so that only it can be controlled by one remote. Learn how to pair your Apple Remote"
Pairing sets the device to read only a specific remote.
It does not set a specific remote to work only with a specific device. ie. if you point th remote at another Apple device (that is not paired) it will control it.

Apple TV Ipad-2 Mirror with Airplay not working w/ HBOGO

I have Apple TV 2, latest one with upgrade to 4.4, I have iPad 2 w ios 5, I have Lion on my Mac and latest iTunes 10.5. I have HBO go app which streams the HBO shows, when I am streaming the show on the iPad and have the AirPlay bar at the bottom that lets me select to connect to Apple TV and I do connect to Apple tv, it only plays the Audio through the TV, no Video. Am I doing something wrong?

As of now HBOGO does not support either mirroring or HDMI connections from device to TV. When I tried to mirror my iphone 4s the screen had the hbogo logo and a disclaimer that it wasnt supported at this time but they are working on it for the future.

IOS7 no longer working with airplay

I'm not sure if this question should be posted here or in the airport section.....but I am going to give it a try here first. I have speakers in various rooms of my home and they are all connected to individual airport expresses. I have upgraded my iPhone and iPad to ios7 and I am no longer able to connect to the airport expresses via airplay. The units will show up as options under airplay on my phone, but when I try and select one, it will high-lite for a second and then de-selct itself. iTunes running on my iMac is able to play via airplay without any issues as are any devices not running iOS7.
Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a known issue with iOS7 and Airplay? I am using an Airport Express 802.11n (1st gen) using firmware 7.6.4. I am also using an Airport Express 802.11g running firmware 6.3. According to my Airport Utility I am running the most recent firmware for both.
Thanks

Apple Products no longer AirPrint with new routers

I have a OfficeJet Pro 8500 A910 Series printer and was using a linksys WRT160N V2 router (open without a password protection). I also have an HP Laptop, a MacBook Pro Retina, two IPhones and an IPad. All devices were able to print wirelessly on the Office Jet.
I sought to repace the router first with a Linksys AC1200 and then with an Apple Airport Extreme. With both routers the HP laptop was able to print wirelessly to the printer. However, the apple products could not. All equipment is on the same network (password protected). Sometimes the Apple products can see the printer and I think when first connected they will print. But within a few minutes will no longer be able to perform an airprint. If I delete the printer and try to add it - the printer disappears as a nearby printer and sometimes does not show up as a bonjour printer either.
While I can limp along with the older router, I worry that when it finally dies, I will no longer be able to use this printer wirelessly. I have both new routers in their boxes ready to be returned - but perhaps there is a solution.
I have spent hours on the phone with both Apple and witih Linksys to no avail. I do think this is an HP problem and so do they.
I have tried limiting the router to a 2.x Ghz - and note that using a 5 Ghs frequency makes the Apple products ever less happy.

Hi @StarvationPoint,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I gather that since changing your router that you are encountering difficulties in using AirPrint from your Apple mobile devices.
I have included a post by @Shirlzz1 on the forums titled Help Determine if your router can support AirPrint with the Bonjour Discovery App. It will walk you through downloading an app that checks to see if the routers support Bonjour (I know the Apple AirPort Extreme does).
I’ve also included the Printing Over a Wireless Network with Apple's AirPrint FAQs document. It has some great trouble shooting steps in the “What if a 'No AirPrint Printers Found' message displays on my Apple device?” section.
Please let me know the outcome.

RE: Library Sharing with Apple TV1, no longer works with Home Sharing on.

Let me begin by telling you what I have.
Last year I took my old 2006 XServe Dual Quad 2.8 GHz and moved it in my home which is hardwired, and set it to share my iTunes library (700 movies, 700 TV Shows and 16,000 songs) to my six Macs, 3 PC's and four Rev. 1 Apple TV's, thereby creating a cheap Kaleidescape Video Server System (www. Kaleidescape.com), and it worked great. However, when I introduced an Rev. 2 Apple TV into the equation, it, the Apple TV2 does not see the shared libraries on the XServe. It requires Home Sharing. The problem begins when I turn on Home Sharing for the Apple TV2, my Apple TV1's no longer see the Shared Libraries, and I have not be able to find a solution that allows me to run both TV's. In looking through the internet it appears the Traditional Sharing that I was used to, is going away with IOS. The question then becomes, is there a work around? Realistically, I cannot see why Apple would disable this feature as it works so well, and didn't require iTunes Authorization, which is user limited. Any ideas? I would really appreciate the help.

Hi there catcherlojo,
It sounds like you have already tried a few things, but you may still find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.

My Apple Remote no longer works with Powerpoint 2008

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I can no longer control Powerpoint 2008 with my apple remote!
iTunes still works fine play pause volume etc...
I have also tried iRed Lite, but this also does not work.
Do I now have a nice slim aluminium paperweight?

I'm experiencing the same problem!

Apple Remote no longer works with VLC

Has anyone else come across this problem? Since upgrading to Leopard (Fresh Install) VLC 0.8.6c can no longer be controlled by the Apple Remote. Is this just another example of Apple (un)intentionally removing a feature?

Seems Videolan.org were aware there might be a problem with this:

The remote works fine in Quicktime Player I note.

Apple Mail no longer working with Gmail

Hi,
I've been using Apple Mail for over a year now to coordinate multiple email addresses and it worked well until a few weeks ago when Gmail stopped working. I can add my account, the account loads, but the account is only visible if you go through the subfolders - it isn't visible under "Inbox". This defeats the purpose of using a client, since I'm not notified if I receive a message and to check I would have to flip back down to Gmail's subfolder to check that account and then flip back up to check my other accounts. I at first thought it was a problem with Apple Mail, but after wiping my computer and re-installing three times and upgrading to the new OS, I've decided it's a problem with my Gmail. I also can't get Gmail to work with Apple Mail clients on other computers. It works OK but not great with Thunderbird. Any help would be MUCH appreciated! Thank you!!

Anybody have a guess what to check? This is frustrating.
Did you change any setting in Mail? Did you change your gmail account password? Did you activate 2-step verification on your gmail account?
If you haven't done anything from above, maybe problem is with your network... Did you try to turn off your router for few minutes and then turn ON again?
Did you install any 3rd party security apps on your Mac? Did you enable system firewall? Do you use any proxy servers? Do you use VPN?
There might be more questions...

Apple remote no longer works with mountain lion

The apple remote that was quite happily working with Lion no longer seems to be working with mountain lion.
I've checked with at least 3 other apple remotes I have and none of them seem to want to pair.
I've been able to pair them with another mac running Lion, but when going to the pair option under;
Preferences--> Security& Privacy --> General --> Advanced -> Pair
Pressing the menu and next for more than a minute gives me nothing on any of the remotes.
Anyone else having issues pairing with mountain lion?
*Note, each of the remotes quite happily will

I thought I had a problem pairing my aluminium Apple remote with EyeTV, but all turned out fine.
When I clicked Preferences --> Security & Privacy --> General --> Advanced --> Pair a message told to press the "Menu and Next" buttons until the remote paired with the computer. At first, I assumed this meant that I should press the two black buttons underneath the main, circular control, but nothing happened.
Then it struck me that the "Next" button might mean the right arrow on the main, circular control, so I held down this while holding the Menu button (the smaller button, below and to the left of the main, circular control), and the remote paired within a few seconds!
I don't have one of the older, white Apple remote controls to test this idea with, but something similar may also work with that remote.

I have an iPad mini and a 2nd gen Apple tv -which works fine with Airplay--and whilst i can get BBC Iplayer and 4OD , it only works with audio for ITV player and Demand 5. What am I doing wrong

I have a new iPad mini and can successfully use airplay with my 2nd generation Apple tv . BBC Iplayer is fine --as is 4OD, but ITV player only works in audio format--and Demand 5 does not work at all. I am pretty sure both the latter are compatible--so what can i do to fix this and what am i currently doing wrong?

Someone recently noted a problem staying logged on the Huffington Post since it became connected with AOL. The workaround for that is to change your connection setting here:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > Network
Click the "Settings" button and choose either "No Proxy" or "Use System Settings" option, and OK the change.
Not sure whether Washington Post could be affected by that same setting.
In reviewing your extensions, I'm puzzled that you have both DoNotTrackMe and SavvyConnect. The first one seems to aggressively block certain communications with websites (potentially affecting functionality) while the second one seems to report on your browsing habits (they better pay well is all I can say). Have you tried disabling both of those to see whether that has any effect?

Non Apple phones no longer working with iMessage

I had to reset iMessage on my iPhone and MacBook Pro in order to get it syncing again properly. I don't know what happened but it just stopped syncing until I reset everything. Now it is working. However, I'm noticing that any non Apple phones are showing in Red in iMessage. These are phones that I had had multiple conversations with successfully in the past, but now it just won't send anything. I even have the old messages under the Red listed phone that show my previous successes. Odd.

Do you have Settings > Messages > Send as SMS turned on?

Apple TV no longer connects with PC iTunes

Connections to Netflix, YouTube etc work but will not connect to my PC iTunes saying I have to sign on home sharing on the PC iTunes. It is on! It was working before a recent Apple TV update. Is there a known problem? Wasting a lot of time trying to correct this issue.

I have had the same frustrations for months. Then I read a suggestion and tried it and it worked, at least for me. Here is what you do.
Go to Control Panel
Then click Network and Internet
Then Network Sharing Center
Under Connections, click your internet connection.
In the pop up box click on "properties" and when the box pops up, say yes.
Then uncheck Internet Protocol Version 6 and click the okay box.
After I did that mine started working and has worked even after turning off itunes and getting back in.
I hope this works for you.
