HT204291 No sound using Apple TV mirroring

I have setup an Apple TV (2nd) and an iPhone 4S, and it works perfectly when I listen to music and watch a news update video from the national tv station. However, when I try to see a movie from Voddler or a news video update from another TV station, only the picture is shown on my television, but there's no sound. Does anybody know what I can do to get the sound on?

Try turning off your wi-fi and then re-connecting it.  If that doesn't work, restart your computer.  It's happened to me twice in the past couple weeks where I mirror my macbook pro and I have video but no sound.  Restarting my computer has fixed it both times.

  • Having multiple user accounts and using apple tv mirroring breaks and also compromises privacy?

    I've got a 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7 iMac from Feb 2012 and the newest Apple TV 2 that I bough t a few months ago (June 2012 I think). 
    On my iMac I set up a second user account besides my primary account to allow my ladyfriend to use Apple TV mirroring to watch movies from my user account's Public folder.  It worked for a short time and then (now I wonder if this was when 10.8.1 was released) it ceased to work. 
    Here's what happens now:
    1. I log in as the TVwatching account (leaving my primary account logged in)
    2. In the TVwatching account I switch on Apple TV mirroring and the result is (on the mirrored screen, not the iMac) an alternating glitchy green screen with bits of the TVwatching account's desktop and then bits of my primary account's desktop flashing in the background
    3. I turn off mirroring
    4. I log back in as my primary account (leaving TVwatching user logged in) and turn on mirroring and the mirrored display looks just fine
    5. I turn off mirroring
    6. Log back into the TVwatching account (leaving the primary user logged in) and this time, when I turn on mirroring, it's clearly viewing my primary user's account --- HELLO PRIVACY BREACH!!! Also, no green screen and no flip-flop flashing of the two user's desktops.
    When I log out my primary user and just log into TVwatching account it works as expected but I would think I should be able to have multiple user account support since I leave my computer (and my primary account) on all the time.
    One thing I will try is the newly released 10.8.2 update (installing as I write this) and I'll see if I can still reproduce.

    I should add that I did a system restore of the Apple TV this evening too and was still able to reproduce, as well as the firmware update that was available.  As far as I can tell, the Apple TV is up to date on the latest everything.

  • HT204291 No sound from tv after mirroring ipad2

  • I can only get sound using Apple's Headphones. Help?

    Okay, this is weird.
    I had no sound, or so I thought. However, now my ipod does have sound, but only through apple's headset. If I plug in any working headphone set, I get nothing but silence, but if I use the apple headset, I get sound. This is also the same for my MAC if that give any clues. Last night, both of these items were working perfectly and had sound regardless of the kind of headphones.
    Anyone have any ideas what I could do to fix this or what the problem might be? I want to use my good headphones again.

    See my response to your other post.

  • HT204291 Can I use Apple TV without a home network

    Hi
    My friend has an iphone 5 and has just bought Apple TV so she can watch movies on the tv off her phone but she has no home phone line so no internet at home except for through her iphone how can she connect her phone to the Apple TV she did think she might be able to use her personal hot spot but can not seem to get the Apple TV to see it
    Any advice gratefully accepted

    I'm a little baffled, though... the Apple TV teardowns show that the boxes have 8 GB of flash, which is an awful lot. Isn't there any way I can load a movie to the box locally, using USB and iTunes or another method?
    Thanks.

  • Can you use Apple TV for a second monitor to a TV (Not mirroring)

    I'm thinking about buying an Apple TV so I can have a wireless second display for my MacBook Pro. Am I able to do this or can I only mirror the one display? Am also what is the minimum Internet speed needed for AirPlay

    OK - I now have the bits and have set up the system...
    Airparrot is great. It allows you to select which display to mirror on the Apple TV. It also allows you to send audio to the Apple TV.  I have EyeTV and Front Row set up to use the second dispaly and Airparrot successfully sends this to the Apple TV. However my audio synce problems  remain. Whenever I use digital (toslink) sound from the iMac the audio is out by several frames. Unfortunately this even happns if I send both the video and audio to the Apple TV. It is unwatchable. This means I will need to switch to the RCA audio output on the iMac (which is AUX in on the hifi) whenever I want to send video to the AppleTV.
    If I play video from the Apple TV (using home sharing) then the audio sync is much better. But this means that Eye TV wont be accessible from the Apple TV menu (now there is an opportunity for a clever programmer).
    I have used QT Sync to adjust the sync when sending video to the Apple TV via quicktime. In speech the lips sync at a difference of 8 frames. However QT Sync is no good for playing video from Front Row or EyeTV. There is another programming opportunity...(adjusting sync for all types of output - it would be a good addition to Airparrot).
    So in short, I cannot use Apple TV to play TV from the iMac. And the Apple TV menu is much more limited, in many ways, than Front Row.
    (the iMac is still running Snow Leopard - which may be partly causing the problems - but there are several reasons why I dont want to upgrade it to Mountain Lion)

  • Can't mirror from ipad air to TV using Apple TV.

    I have a new ipad air and Apple TV, mirroring from my ipad to my TV works fine until I try to mirror anything while using a VPN on my ipad then I either get an error message saying there was a problem try later or I only get sound on my TV but no picture

    Welcome to the Apple Community Geneo.
    Mirroring won't fill the TV screen. The iPad has an aspect ratio of 4:3 and the iPhone 4S or prior an aspect ratio of 3:2, neither of these will fit exactly into a TV screen which as an aspect ratio of 16:9. The Apple TV will not zoom the mirrored image, because it may well cut off information which is situated at the top or bottom of the screen.
    You may wish to try each of the settings in ‘Settings > Audio & Video > Adjust for AirPlay overscan’ for the best setting that suits you.

  • My apple tv mirroring is slow.  So slow it shuts off.  Any thoughts on cause?  I use this device in my office for presentations without a problem.  In my home with a stronger wifi router, I'm having issues.

    My apple tv mirroring is slow.  So slow it shuts off.  Any thoughts on cause?  I use this device in my office for presentations without a problem.  In my home with a stronger wifi router, I'm having issues.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

  • Im not satasfied with 6.0 i miss youtube and some apps are slower, facebook wants premission to access my contacts, and how do i use apple tv feature with out mirroring?

    Im not satasfied with 6.0, i miss youtube, some apps are slower, facebook wants premission to access my contacts, and how do i use apple tv feature with out mirroring?

    That is awesome, works perfectly.
    I'll get it worked into my main script. Is this Action Manager code, and not just regular Javascript from the Scripting Dictionary? I can't tell the difference. I'll see whether or not it's actually faster than Applescript.
    Thanks. I know Scripting Listener records a bunch of stuff, but it's pretty amazing to me that playing back this line does the same thing that playing back the 1,011 lines Scripting Listener puts out.
    Thanks.

  • How can I do mirroring of a screen from new iPad to hdtv using apple tv and still work on something else in my ipad

    How can I do mirroring of a screen from new iPad to hdtv using apple tv and still work on something else in my ipad

    You don't. Mirroring is duplicating your ipad screen on another projector - so you can't have another app going on your iPad without it also showing up on the projected image. Some apps are designed so that you see a different image in the iPad than the mirrored out display, but even then you're within the app itself.

  • Can you use apple tv to mirror my mac screen

    I currently have a macbook air with display adaptor to HDMI cable and am able to surf the net . Is it possible to use Apple TV2 and possibly Airplay to project the screen of a Macbook Air onto a large TV attached to the Apple TV2 thus avoiding the attached HDMI cable across the lounge room given that AppleTV does not provide a full internet browser functionality.
    Trevor

    i have been hearing about "mirroring" with the new ios being released in july (ios5). the guy at the genius bar said it would mirror, but what does that mean? does that mean that i can display my ipad or iphone (or mbp) through my apple tv? this would be great for practicing presentations for my friends before i have to give them for real and such.
    i know speculation is against the rules, but i thought since this was about there in beta and likely people are using it that it didnt count cause it wasnt speculation, its simply "advance knowledge".
    thanks.

  • How can I use Apple TV as second display, not mirror.

    I was told (and showed) by an apple "genius" that i could use apple tv with my own hd monitor as a second monitor to use in final cut and other media programs. so i got one, but the desplay setting will only let me use the mirror settings. anyone now how this can be done?

    That feature is coming with OSX 10.9 (Mavericks). In the meantime you will have to use a 3rd party solution like Airparrot.

  • Using Apple TV to mirror from a pc using Widi possible?

    Can I use Apple TV as an adapter to mirror the video from my pc using Intel Widi?  I heard the 3rd generation Apple TV supports Widi but I can't figure out how to connect.  When Intel Widi scans for available adapters it does not see the Apple TV.  The Intel Widi help utility says that the TV should be displaying the "To Get Started" screen, but I don't know how to get the TV to do that.  I'm trying to run Intel Widi from a PC running Windows 8.0 and I've heard that Windows 8.1 is required, but if so I'm not sure why the Intel Widi program would be pre-installed on my 8.0 machine and running at all up to the stage where it is scanning for available adaptors.

    No. But you can use a 3rd party program like Airparrot to mirror your display.
