How do I get my iPad2 to connect to TV using AirPlay?

How do I get my iPad2 to connect to TV using AirPlay?

Thanks for your helpful response. I do have an Apple TV device that is hooked up to my TV & router and is working OK. I can link to iTunes on my main computer and stream photos etc OK. The Apple TV device also links to internet OK.
What I can't get to Apple TV device to do is link to my IPad2. I followed the instructions on using & setting up  Airplay, and found the Airplay symbol OK,. When I tap it it shows my iPad & Apple TV. When I tap on the TV symbol it doesn't show the dialogue box indicated. I can't seem to get the iPad to stream from Photos, and the iPad doesn't show up on the TV under Computers.
Clearly I am doing something wrong, but what?
Any ideas?

  • How do I get my MBP to connect to WiFi using WPS?

    I keep forgetting my WiFi password, and since my router has one of those fancy WPS buttons, I wanted to use it to get online.
    HOWEVER, I can't seem to on my MBP. All it says is "Enter Paraphrase" and there isn't any option for using WPS. Google isn't any help, and keeps pointing me to .wps support which is not what I'm looking for.
    Do I need to upgrade my OS or did I miss any patches? Alternatively, do I need to install any third party software to get WPS working?
    Cheers,
    W

  • I just opened my new ipad2 32GB.  I can't get off the screen for language choice!  How do I get to the correct screen to begin using it?

    I just opened my new ipad2-32GB.  It is connected to my macbook pro and itunes is opened.  But it is stuck on a screen for language choices.  How do i get to the correct screen to begin using it?

    yes, thanks.  I needed to reset using the power button and home button and hold for longer than i thought.  After some serious worry (I'm an electronic illiterate!) I do have everything working and synced with my laptop and phone. 
    I am glad to have discovered the "support community" site

    Thanks for your help

    First, please don't shout.
    Second, don't post personal information.
    Third, restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

    Have you confirmed that the app supports AirPlay? If it doesn't, then you'll have to connect via screen mirroring. See:

  • How do you get iPhone 5 to connect to iMac through bluetooth?

    How do you get iPhone 5 to connect to iMac through bluetooth?
    I know the basic steps, but all I get is pairing unsuccessful. I'm using an older bluetooth, would that make a difference? I got connected once with a Motorola bluetooth, but can't reconnect. TIA!

    Try the Bluetooth Troubleshooting steps here:

    Note that you need to have Personal Hotspot set up with your carrier and on your iPhone before you can connect the computer.

  • How do I get rid of "Your connection failed because the communication device is unavailable"? Pops up 4 times every time I boot my MBP.

    Hi there
    Do you happen to use a USB modem or something like that? This could be the cause.
    You could try creating a new network location to see if that fixes it (if not you can just reverse it)
    1. Go to  Menu -> System Preferences
    2. Then go to Network on the 3rd row
    3. Make sure the padlock is unlocked (bottom left) with your admin password
    4. Choose 'Automatic' next to 'Location' at the top.
    5. Choose 'Edit Locations'
    6. Then click the + button, and create a new one called home/test/somethingorother
    7. Click Done -> Save and wait a few seconds
    8. You may have to reconnect to your Wi Fi network etc.
    If you have a USB modem, the above steps will most likely remove its config from the Network preferences. As I said, its reversable (just change location back to automatic)
    Have fun

  • How do I get the IPad2 to find printer?

    How do I get the IPad2 to find printer? I've set the printer up with the Bonjour service.

    On Windows:
    The iPad uses Apple's printing protocol AirPrint. This is not a feature of Bonjour Print Services since it only lets it find printers shared by Macs and share it's own. There is however a quick and easy third party Windows application which can advertise a Windows printer using the AirPrint protocol.
    http://jaxov.com/2010/11/download-airprint-installer-for-windows-7-xp-vista/
    It does require the windows computer to be on and the since the printer won't be advertised if it isn't. If you have problems just google "AirPrint Windows" and you'll find that page and another tutorial.
    On Mac:
    Again there is another third party app you can use:
    http://fairerplatform.com/2011/04/airprint-activator-mac-os-lion-compatible/
    I've tried them both and they work a treat for me.
    Hope that's helped! I finally signed up because I actually knew the answer to this question! Yay!

  • How do I get my iphone to connect with my PC via WiFi

    How do I get my iphone to connect with my PC via WiFi?

    I Believe you are trying to use personal hotspot so you can use your 3G/LTE on your pc.
    If that's the question, you'll need to turn on "Personal Hotspot" in settings (it's right below bluetooth), then go to your Mac/PC and connect to your iphone as you would with a normal wi-fi connection. You can change the random default password in the same menu where you have turned on "Personal Hotspot"
