5.1 Update and AirPlay

It seems the AppleTV will no longer send audio through the optical port when the TV is off.
This is a real pain if it's true because I don't like having the TV on just to listen to music.
Anyone else have this problem?

I have the same problem.
We hope that Apple will solve the problem the more fast as possible.
I do not see the function AirPlay in my AppleTV from my iphone and ipad.
To make it work, I have to disable airplay on my appleTV and re-enable, so if it works, but the next time that will be used again to disappear....
Please Repair ....

  • My phone doesn't give me the option to turn mirroring on when trying to connect to apple tv. As far as I can see everything is updated and the AirPlay is turned on. Be grateful if anyone knows what's wrong.

  • Hello. I've Apple TV 3rd gen and MacBook Pro 2013 all with latest updates. AirPlay works fine till I don't start streaming videos from YouTube. After that AirPlay icon from MacBook menu bar simply disappears. Could some help. I'm using 2 Mbps Internet

    Hello. I've Apple TV 3rd gen and MacBook Pro 2013 all with latest updates. AirPlay works fine till I don't start streaming videos from YouTube. After that AirPlay icon from MacBook menu bar simply disappears. Could some help. I'm using 2 Mbps internet connection.

    Same issue here- I can airplay my amazon prime library just fine from my iphone 5 but on my macbook- (mavericks, 15 inch 2013 retina with quad core i7, nvidia 650 M and SSD) it just sputters and lags.
    I have noticed web video is considerably worse than local content, giving me pauses of up to 2 or 3 seconds in which video stops but audio continues in the amazon player. Youku video, however, seems relatively stable. Our subscription speed is 25 mbps, so that should be plenty to stream SD video from Amazon and doesn't account for why it would be nice and stable from the iphone, but not the mbp.
    Playing light, locally hosted steam sidescrollers  like Limbo is better but gives periodic drops in framerate on the Tv. when mirroring the framerate remains steady on the MBP screen.
    Games airplayed from my iphone seem relatively stable, though with a noticably lower framerate on the TV than on the phone.
    It seems these issues have abated considerably since yesterday's Apple TV update, but are still curious nonetheless and I'm not sure that the update yesterday was specifically meant to address those issues or if I'm just getting a time with less network interference now.
    Comcast recently installed a new router/modem/phone combo, replacing our old separate modem and router setup. I'm going to test if putting the network on a different channel helps.

  • Just updated to 11.1.3.8 and Airplay does not work. The icon is not there to select

    I use a Gear4 series 1 wireless speaker to stream music to my lounge. I have just bought a Gear4 series 3 speaker to do the same to my dining room but after upgrading Itunes the Airplay logo has vanished so nothing works. The series 1 is still connected to my home network but my iphone, ipad and pc cant see it any more

  • My Apple TV stalled during an update and now just shows an image of it being plugged into a USB. It won't complete the update and does nothing when I plug it into my Mac via USB.

    2 Apple TVs. The first won't reboot, it stalled during an update and now shows a picture of a UBS plug. Ive tried to plug into my computer, nothing happens. At a standtill.
    The second Apple TV works but only if I send something via Airplay. The remote no longer has any affect. The light on the front of the Apple TV blinks when I push a buttom on the remote but nothing happens.
    Any Ideas? I am starting to think I need to replace them. Thanks.

    Ok, with itunes open on the pc, plug one end of the usb cord into the computer, but not connected to the ipad.
    now, press the power button on the ipad until it turns off.
    Then, press and hold the home button on the ipad at the same you plug the usb cord into the ipad. DON'T LET GO OF THE HOME BUTTON.
    Keep holding the home button until you see the recovery mode message pop on the itunes window.
    When that happens, you should now be able to restore.

  • How to setup ADSL moden router and Airport Express 802.11n (1st Generation) to provide internet and airplay connections to multiple devices?

    I have a Netgear wireless ADSL modem router (wireless + four ethernet out ports)  that i'd like to connect to a 1st gen Airport Express to create a small home network to provide internet access for a MacBook, iPhone and Apple TV, and to provide Airplay connection to the Apple TV and Airport Express audio output jack.
    I'd like to turn off the wireless function of the ADSL modem router, and to have from one of its ethernet out ports an ethernet cable providing internet directly connected to my MacBooks ethernet port.
    Then from one of the other ethernet outs on the ADSL modem router an ethernet cable connected to the Airport Express's ethernet port. This would be to provide wireless internet connection for the Apple TV and iPhone via WiFi from the AE.
    At the same time as the MacBook is receviing internet soley via the ethernet in port, i'd like it to have WiFi connection to the AE to provide Airplay connection to the Apple TV and the AE's audio out jack.
    Is this all possible? How should I go about to configure this? How should the AE's ethernet port be configured?
    Any special modes the ADSL modem router or Airport Express should be in? ie bridge or client?
    Thanks

    On the ADSL modem router web-based interface, should I set any security setting? I think not as there'll be no wireless signal coming from it, only wired ethernet connections to both MacBook and AE. Security should only be set on the AE to prevent someone from accessing its WiFi signal. Is this assumption correct?
    These are all correct!
    How should I go about setting up security for this network?
    First I would recommend that you configure the AirPort Express for WPA2 Personal. This will provide you with the greastest level of security while still providing excellent bandwidth performance.
    You would configure wireless security for the Express by using the AirPort Utility on a Mac, PC, or iOS device. Using your MacBook Pro as an example, you would do so as follows:
    Run the AirPort Utility.
    Select the Express, and then, click on Edit.
    Select the Wireless tab to enable it.
    Set the Wireless Security option to: WPA2 Personal
    Enter the desired password in both the Wireless Password & Verify Password fields. Note: Use of a "strong" password is encourage here. By strong, I mean use a mix of upper/lowercase letters, numbers, & punctuation marks. Try not to use common dictionary words. If you operate your wireless in an area where security is of an utmost concern, I would further suggest that you change the wireless security password every 60-90 days. Also don't forget to change the default AirPort Base Station Administrator password as well.
    Click on Update and allow the Express to restart.

  • Airport and Airplay on PC

    The airplay Icon on my PC goes on and off... I have an airport express. Is there something to do ?

  • Airplay mirroring and airplay speakers

    I would like to set up airplay mirroring so that audio gets directed to my airplay speakers and the images to the TV.
    LIke this:
    iPhone-->ATV-->Airplay speakers
    I can airplay audio through the phone directly to the speakers, and I can also select speakers on the ATV and airplay audio from ATV apps directly to those speakers.. I can also airplay audio only from the iPhone through the ATV to the speakers, as long as I'm not mirroring.
    However when I turn on mirroring, the audio always goes right to the TV and not to the speakers. I was told that what I'm trying do cannot be done with Mirroring. Is this right? Has anyone got this setup to work?
    Would be nice if I can stream shows from a browser to the ATV and then audio to the Airplay speakers. So far I have not been able to get that to work.
    Help or advice appreciated, thanks!
    Sam

    For what it's worth, I managed a workaround with VLC and Airfoil to mirror a video to Apple TV and send the audio to AirPlay speakers.   However, there's still the 2 second delay issue for most other sources, like Chrome and games. 
    It seems what's missing is a way on the Apple TV to redirect the audio to an AirPlay source while mirroring (holding down select does nothing in this mode, unlike Netflix or Movies where it brings up a source selection menu).  It would be SO COOL if this was implemented in a future ATV update - for all of us with projectors out there.

  • ITunes 11.3.1 update and Apple TV problems

    Since updating iTunes the other day I cant play Photos or stream video through my Apple TV v3. Current firmware on both devices. Used to work okay. No changes made to router or firmware etc. Everything else works as before. Apple TV will however find and play audio from iTunes!! Figure that.
    Apple TV finds some photo thumbnails but just spins its wheel when asked to display it. Same with video - sees thumbnails but won't play. Doesn't even timeout, just spins its wheel...any thoughts anyone from Apple?

    Hey GUSSS,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    So you can't play photos or video through the Apple TV because it just spins, but audio works. You may want to check the network performance since audio works but video won't work. Since it only sees shows of your photos and videos you may want to look at the second article.
    iTunes: Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5209
    Troubleshooting performance issues
    Wi-Fi Connection
    If you are experiencing intermittent playback or significant network lag with AirPlay, it could be due to a weak Wi-Fi connection, interference, or the distance between the Wi-Fi router and your AirPlay-enabled device.
    Ensure that other devices aren't trying to stream to the same Apple TV at the same time.
    Ensure that your Wi-Fi router is set up with the recommended settings for the best performance.
    Certain external devices, such as microwave ovens and baby monitors, may interfere with a Wi-Fi network. Try moving or disabling these devices.
    If your wireless and wired networks are the same, try connecting your Apple TV to the router via Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi.
    Use the Wi-Fi network troubleshooting guide to resolve interference and other issues.
    Ethernet Connection
    Temporarily disable firewalls (both network and local) and security software. Security software and firewalls may block ports that AirPlay uses to stream content. You can often resolve issues with security software by updating, correctly configuring, or uninstalling security software.

  • Itunes and Airplay -  Error code -15000

    I have a windows PC and also airport express, apple TV and i-Home airplay speaker. When I select the airplay icon within i-tunes to play to any/all of these devices I get error code -15000. Note this set up worked before the latest i-tunes software update.
    I get the same issue (well no sound comes out of the atv/airport express etc ) if I try and use a "remote" app on my i-pad or i-phone to control what is playing on the ATV/Airport express etc (I also note that the although it continues to show the track continuing to play within the "remote" app (on the i-phone/ i-pad) -  the song seems to stall in the i-tunes running on my laptop. When using the remote and selecting and de-selecting the ATV/AE they seem to connect / disconnect - ie the blue tick marks select and de-selct but no music comes out oof the devices. I also hear the speakers attached to the AE "bomp" as they coinnect /disconnect.
    If I select the airplay icon when playing music directly on my i-phone/i-pad I can select any of the individual speakers (ATV/AE) and they connect and play wirelessly perfectly fine.
    Any help much Appreciated.

    there is no mirror button,  nor is one hidden underneath anywhere.

    Not all apps are enabled for airplay, this is up to the developer to do. If you want to mirror, it cannot be turned on within an app. You need to bring up control centre, select airplay and toggle ON mirroring.

  • AirPort Express and AirPlay mayhem

    Ok so I have a 500GB Time Capsule (about three years old) broadcasting a wireless network and connected by ethernet to a DLINK DSL2740B router in my study and an AirPort Express in my room extending the wireless network wirelessly and for AirPlay. I have been using a 1st-generation AirPort Express for years without an issue until the new AE came out and there was a firmware update to mine. Shortly after, it began cutting out intermittently and AirPlay stutters every 20 seconds or so.
    Even though I thought it extremely suspicious that after a firmware update and new generation AirPort Express release my old AE starts cutting out, I went and bought a 2nd-generation AirPort Express (hey, they look prettier). It worked like a charm for the first two days, but now it is cutting out and stuttering while trying to use AirPlay from both my MacBook Pro and my iPhone 4S. Not only that, but when I look in AirPort Utility on my Mac, it says that the connection to the new AE is either "poor" or "fair". Seeing as I am sitting about three steps away from the thing, I don't think that's right. Internet speed seems to be largely unaffected.
    This is driving me crazy, any help would be appreciated.

    A couple of more questions for clarification. Does your Actiontec router also provide Wi-Fi? Is your AirPort Express, which is connected by Ethernet to the Actiontec, configured as a roaming network or to join the Actiontec's wireless network?

  • PowerBook G4 and AirPlay

    I was wondering if there is a way to use AirPlay with my PowerBook. It is the top of line 1.67GHz PPC with 2 GB of RAM and it's running Mac OS X 10.5.8 . I keep iTunes updated and have things on iCloud. But, can I use AirPlay with that, or does Apple really not care about all of us loyal G4 users?

    AirPlay requries iTunes 10.2 or greater: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4437
    The latest version of iTunes (10.6.1) requires OS X 10.5.8 or greater, Intel or PPC: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1426
    So the G4 is hardly being left behind.
    I no longer have any Leopard systems, but from these requirements AirPlay should work for you.

  • HT5278 i did this update and now the volume on my phone doesn't appear when i push the buttons on the side of the phone. occasionally i see them, but my speakers won't work for playing videos or music either. it does ring when i receive a call though! ne1

    i did the ios5.1.1 update and now the volume on my phone doesn't appear when i push the buttons on the side of the phone. occasionally i see them, but my speakers won't work for playing videos or music either. it does ring when i receive a call though, and for my alarm. ne1 else had these problems?

    I have had this happen to me on 3GS, 4 and 4s.   Usually the solution is one of the following:
    1-  If  your volume indicator says  headphones even though they are not plugged in, then:
    Stick your headphones into the headphone jack and then remove quickly.
    2. If that does not work Power your phone off. Then when restarting Reset the phone by pressing the home button and the power button at the same time until the apple logo appears.
    3. Make sure you have not chosen to send audio to an Airplay device such as Apple Tv.
    Hope one of these works for you
