How to restart movie play using AirPlay

I have an iPad 2 connected to Apple TV which is connected to our HDTV.
Click Video. Select a Movie. Start playing the movie.
Click the AirPlay control and send the movie to Apple TV.
After a couple of minutes the iPad screen will go dark.
If I double tap the Home button the Video app appears.
There is a 'Slide to Unlock' slider at the bottom.
And at the top there are controls for the movie play. Volume, Skip Forward, Skip Back, and Pause.
I tap the Pause button (without using the 'Slide to Unlock' slider).
The movie stops playing.
Now I want to restart the movie. But the 'Play' button does not respond.
The Volume and Skip buttons are active. But the Play isn't.
The only way I can get the movie to start playing again is to slide the 'Slide to Unlock' slider.
Then tap the Play button.
Is this the way it is supposed to be working?
I find having these controls available from the double tap of Home extremely convenient.
I'd just like to know if there is a way to restart the play without unlocking the screen.
Thanks for any help or advice!

I called Apple Support on this.
This is working like it is supposed to.
The 'Resume/Play' button is disabled until the screen is unlocked.
The other buttons will work.
A suggestion by the agent was to change the screen lock controls when using this function.
Now that I understand that this is the expected behavior I know what to do.

Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.

Hi Ldavinci, I have noticed your posts on that particular
site before. Just chiming in here... don't be afraid of Flash Help
menu. There's a wealth of information there and I've found it much
faster than waiting for a response from the forum. Then if it still
doesn't make sense, at least you have a basic idea of specifics to
ask.
If you search for mouse wheel, you'll see an example under

How do I move databases using RMAN with minimal downtime ?

How can I do the following using RMAN ?
DB version 10.2.0.4
Redhat 5.2
I am not using an rman catalogIn the past I have moved large databases from 1 server to another with 5 minutes downtime using backups done the old way by putting tablespaces in backup mode and making copies of the datafiles.
I used the following method :
========> Part 1
STARTUP NOMOUNT
CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE set DATABASE "VPMY" RESETLOGS ARCHIVELOG
MAXLOGFILES 32
MAXLOGMEMBERS 3
....etc
LOGFILE
......... log file names
DATAFILE
... list of datafiles
CHARACTER SET US7ASCII;
========> Part 2
Up until the scheduled downtime, I would copy the archive logs from the production server to the new and run the following to apply the latest archive logs:
RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE UNTIL CANCEL;
->AUTO<-
========> Part 3
After applying the last archive log while in restrict mode -
ALTER DATABASE OPEN resetlogs;
My question is, how do I do Part 2 in RMAN. I have managed to duplicate databases and restore databases using rman to a different server, but this obviously only covers the data upto the backup point. How can I do the above parts 1 -3 with downtime of about 5 minutes like I have done using old methods ?
Any help is much appreciated/

you should be able to recover as you go with rman as well..
copy the archived logs from A to B and apply them as they come in.
run
set until sequence x thread 1;
recover database;
if you're not opening the database after recovery you can just increment the set until sequence as the logs come in and do a new recovery.

How can I move most used mail accounts to appear at the top of the list when I open my mail app?

I have updated iPhone4 to IOS7 and now my mail accounts are in new order. I have several accounts but a few that need to be the most visible. Not sure how iPhone mail app is sorting them but it sorting it but definitely not alphabetically or by most used. Anyway, I finally figured out how to reorder them to suit me and, since help wasn't found on forum, thought I'd share:
Open Mail App, then use "Edit" from top right. You'll see a 3-bar icon to the right of each mail account. Use it to slide accounts up/down to where you want them. Works also for any Gmail accounts you might have.
Sometimes it's the simple things

cor-el, thanks for the tip. While I certainly scoured Adobe's preference settings to look for something relating to that exact thing, I never went to their help site until I got your post. I found out that the floating toolbar appears because the PDF opens in'' Read Mode'', which you can turn off for all future documents by doing this:
* Quit your internet browser
* Launch Acrobat (or Reader)
* Choose Edit>Preferences
* Click on the Internet category on the left
* Deselect “Display in Read Mode by default”
* Click the OK button.
* Relaunch Acrobat
Something important to note, if you have both Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader, you need to do the above in both programs (same steps).

How do i move and use media files on the internal, non-os drive?

This must be a very basic question, but i am new to macs and having apparently filled up the start up drive, i now need to learn how to fill up the internal (main drive) which has a lot more capacity.
Many thanks

The help files for iTunes, iPhoto, and iMovie describe how to move those libraries. You've not ID'd the machine, but I assume yours has an SSD and an HDD.

How can I move files using the title bar

I am using Mountain Lion, latest release (10.8.4) and am wondering if there is some secret options which would allow me to move files by clicking on the title bar (of e.g. preview) and moving it to a directory.
Unfortunately, I can only either create a link or copy the file. Moving seems to be deactivated, though I have learned from other forums posts that this was working under Tiger.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
equi

Depends on the application. iCloud-aware applications (Preview, Pages, etc) have the behavior you describe, and you can't move a file by dragging the thumbnail icon, but there is a small popup triangle to the right of the filename which contains the option "Move To" - you can then select your destination. It's not as seamless and dragging and dropping, though, I agree.
Non-iCloud-aware apps, like Office 2011, still allow drag-to-move from the titlebar icon.

Help please, how to make movie play in nano

i have a nano, i thought there should be a transfer software built-in,but no.
anyone can give me this software pls?

Hey there,
First, make sure you have your iPod set up to sync videos. To do this, plug your iPod in and head over to the "Videos" tab and make sure they are set to "Sync" and hit "Apply" when you have selected your method for syncing videos. More on syncing videos can be found in the Apple document below.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1333
Also, make sure the video is in the standard iPod format. Even though it was bought from the iTunes store, it may not be in the correct iPod format. To change this, right->click (or control->click on a mac) on the movie in your iTunes library and choose "Create iPod or iPhone version." The conversion may take anywhere from a few minutes to quite some time depending on the length of the movie.
Once it is done, try resyncing it to your iPod. Hope this helps.

Intermittent music dropout using airplay on ios5 and iPhone4

Hi!
After updating to iOS5 on my iPhone 4 I get 5sec dropouts in the music when trying to play, using airplay through my Airport Express. It's almost always 5sec drops and then music returns again, sometimes it appears that the drop of music is permanent until I jogg the iPhone by unlocking it and entering the Music Player. This problem does not occur when I play same music from my Macbook using the same Airport Express.

...a little more experimentation...
I booted the MBP 15 (Spring 2011) from an external backup of Lion (made immediately prior to switching to ML). When I turn off the Server Firewall then I can iTunes Airplay to both the Apple TV as well as to the Airport Express. But when I turn on the Server Firewall, even after allowing ports 3689, 42000-42999 both TCP and UDP, the Airplay does not work. I could not determine which ports were needed for iTunes Airplay, all I could figure out is that when the Server Firewall is off then iTunes Airplay works but when the Server Firewall is on then iTunes Airplay does not work. I tried logging all denied packets, but to no avail, I still could not determine which ones were being denied.
Interestingly, when I turn off the Server Firewall and switch on the System Preference Security pane Firewall, I can still iTunes Airplay to both the ATV and AX. It makes me wonder if when I switched to ML from Lion that some ipfw rules were not left over from the Lion Server Firewall that then keeps ML from allowing iTunes Airplay to work. (I wonder if I restore my Lion Server, then switch off the Lion Server Firewall, then download and install ML once again, then download and install OS X Server once again, whether the iTunes Airplay would then work? Maybe when I have some more time I'll try this, in the meantime I'm going to try a little harder to figure out why the Lion Server Firewall stops iTunes Airplay from working. Dang nabbit, even "ipfw show" does not tell me which packets are being denied when the Server Firewall is ON and iTunes Airplay does not work...does anyone have any suggestions on how to figure out why the Server Firewall is stopping iTunes Airplay from working?)
Thanks,
Switon

How do I use airplay to stream a DVD movie playing in my computer to display on my TV?

How do I use airplay to stream a DVD movie playing in my computer to display on my TV?
I have a 2nd generation Apple TV and computer is a 2011 Macbook Pro. Processor 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7. Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3. Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB. Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63). Storage: about 500GB free out of 750GB.
I have a DVD player within my computer. Trying to play a movie from my computer to display onto my TV using my Apple TV airplay. But the airplay icon is not showing or giving the option to play a movie onto my TV.
I've installed all software updates and still I'm not able to have this functionality.
I assume this functionality exists where I can play a DVD on my computer, but watch it on my TV using my Apple TV, correct?
Thanks for your help solving this puzzle.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). You can see which Mac you have and which operating system you are using by selecting 'About this Mac' from the Apple menu in the top left corner of your Mac and selecting the 'More Info' button.
AirPlay Mirroring from a Mac also requires a fairly robust network.
You may find a third party product that you can use instead of AirPlay.

I just had the same problem. Took the first unit back and the problem is still occuring on the second one. I solved it by setting up again with the USB, but it keeps dropping out every few days.
