AirPlay discovery over Bluetooth in AppleTV 6.1?

Has anyone got AirPlay discovery over Bluetooth, supposedly added to, AppleTV 6.1, working?
Does it requires an iPhone 5 and/or an AppleTV (3rd generation)?
I'm using an iPhone 4s with iOS 7.1  and an Apple TV (2nd gen) with 6.1:
• AirPlay works fine if I put these two devices on the same Wi-Fi network
But if I switch them to different networks (which are still IP connected though), the Airplay button does not get appear on my iPhone.
• Bluetooth is enabled on both the iPhone and Apple TV 2.
Several sites report AirPlay discovery over Bluetooth working between iOS 7.1 and AppleTV 6.1:

Saito,
  • AirPlay mirroring works fine for me when both devices, AppleTV & iOS device, are on the same wireless network.
  • We are not trying to do AirPlay mirroring over Bluetooth.
But my institutional network blocks the multicats used by the Bonjour protocol to disocver AirPlay receivers. To use AirPlay here, I must therefor set up an ad-hoc WiFI network and connect both the AppleTV and the iOS device to this network, for the Bonjour protocol to be successful and the AirPlay link to be displayed on the iOS device.
The links I provided suggested that with iOS 7.1 and AppleTV 6.1, one could use bluetooth for discovery of the AirPlay receiver (and hence it's IP address.)  The actual AirPlay session would then routed from your iOS device to the IP address of the AppleTV. Bluetooth would not be used for the AirPlay traffic, just for the Bonjour discovery phase.
However, I, like Randall G. Black - TIS, was unable to discover my AppleTV (2nd generation) over Bluetooth. I, like Randall G. Black - TIS, wonder if AirPlay-discovery-over-Bluetooth, in addition to requiring iOS 7.1 and AppleTV 6.1, may have other requirements? Perhaps it only works with the AppleTV (3rd generation)?

  • Airplay vs. Bluetooth

    If I want to play music only from my iPod Touch, iPhone4 or MacBook Pro (mid-2010) to a remote speaker . . . is there any advantage to Airplay over Bluetooth?

    Bluetooth has a nominal range of 10 meters (30 feet), but it varies considerably depending on what is between the partner devices. Wifi has about three times that range, also depending on the intervening walls, bodies, etc.
    iTunes on a Mac can stream radio broadcasts from a list of specific stations (many hundreds). The iOS Music app does not, but there are apps that do.

  • Iphone 6 w/8.0.2 dials wrong number over bluetooth in car

    I have an iPhone 6 running iOS 8.0.2  I drive a 2014 Nissan Altima.  When I make a call over bluetooth in my car, and select a name from my phone book, the screen in my car will display the correct name from my phone book, but will actually dial the person listed before the person I intended to call in my phone book. Example:
    Contact List:
    John White
    David Whitmore
    When I say "call David Whitmore" the screen in my car will display "Calling David Whitmore" and my bluetooth system will respond that I am calling David Whitmore, but it will actually dial John White.  I've tried this with several other names in my contact list, and my car always dials the number of the person listed before the person I actually want to call in my contact list.  I had this same phone before updating to iOS 8.0.2 and had no issues whatsoever.  Anyone else having this issue or have any ideas as to what's going on?

    Hey folks- this certainly did the trick for me!

    Re: iPhone 6 iOS 8.0.2 - Bluetooth connectivity dropping HYUNDAI SONATAin response to Cossio
    I have got a 2012 Sonata Hybrid and mine is worked quite well. Is this phone an upgrade from an older phone? Did you restore from a backup of another iPhone. Did you name the new phone the same as the old phone. If this is the case, it can confuse the vehicle's Bluetooth system. Go to the phone and remove the vehicle from the list, turn off Bluetooth on the phone. Do a reset, holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. Go to the vehicle, remove the phone from the list in the vehicle. Turn the vehicle off and then back on again. This will clear the system. Now turn the vehicle back on and put it into discovery/pairing mode. Go to the phone and turn on Bluetooth, which puts it into discovery/pairing mode. The two should connect with no issues.
    EDIT: Sorry, I didn't  mention I have a 5S with iOS8.0.2.

  • IPhone 5 won't play audio over Bluetooth in 2012 Lexus GX 460

    My iPhone 5 can connect via Bluetooth to my 2012 Lexus GX460.  I can make and receive calls over car speaker/Bluetooth.
    However, when I attempt to connect and play music, it says Bluetooth connection failed -- Please see portable player settings.
    Are there new settings on the iPhone to have the audio played over Bluetooth?
    My iPhone 4S and 4 worked perfectly.  Now, the iPhone 5 has issues.
    I have tried this:
    1. Removed the phone from the GX 460
    2. Added the phone back using password
    3. Says it is connected and I can make/receive calls
    Since the audio did not work, I tried:
    1. Turned off Bluetooth on the iPhone
    2. Turned off the iPhone
    3. Removed the phone from the GX 460
    4. Turned off the GX 460
    5. Started the GX 460
    6. Turned on the iPhone
    7. Turned on Bluetooth
    8. Paired the phone with the GX 460
    9. Calls can be made/received, but audio still does not connect
    Lexus has not returned any calls/messages on this one -- hoping someone may have an answer.
    Thanks!

    Had this problem in my 2012 IS F.  Fixed it by going to 'SETUP' -> 'Audio' -> BLuetooth settings.  Deleted the existing pairings and then repaired my phone.  Bingo!

  • My iPhone 5 won't connect to my macbook pro retina over bluetooth?

    My iPhone 5 won't connect to my macbook pro retina over bluetooth?

    Ah, sure it actually won't.  I have the same problem, and I contacted Apple Support.  They told me that there is an incompatability between the iphone 5 and MacBook Pro Retina such that Bluetooth pairing is not possible.
    The Support Agent actually had the audacity to tell me this was part of the design of the OS on the MacBook Pro, like Windows people saying, "That's not a bug.  It's a feature!!"
    Personally, I think this is insane.  While I was trying to tether the iphone to the MacBook Pro retina for an internet connection, there are other reasons related to file transfers for which one would want to pair the iphone 5 with the MacBook Pro retina.
    I am hoping this "feature" is fixed in iOS 7, and/or in some dot release of Mac OS 10.8.
    By the way, the personal hotspot feature on my Verizon iphone 5 works great either via a wifi or USB connection.  There are occaisions, however, when one would 1) not have a USB cable, and/or 2) have another wifi relationship between the phone and a network that one would not want to have to "forget" in order for it not to connect to that wifi network.  The Macbook will not find the iphone as a wifi hotspot if the iphone is connected to wifi in the first place.  At least mine won't.

  • How can i print to my officejet 100 mobile printer from an android device over bluetooth?

    I'm stumped here. I've installed the printer on my Windows PC. I'm able to pair with it (Bluetooth) from my Android tablet (Galaxy 10.1"). I've tried using a variety of printing programs from the Android Marketplace, but I can't get anything to print.
    When I try with PrinterShare, it asks me to select the printer. When I select the OfficeJet 100, I'm told that the application can't find a driver for the printer.
    Note to HP: You definitely need to improve the documentation on this printer. The docs that came with my printer make no mention of Android, and finding anything useful online is practically impossible. Very disappointing.

    Hi uneleashurself and thanks for your answer.
    Forgive my language but getting to talk to the Safaricom customer service is a real pain in the **bleep** - if you ever get to talk to them, that is.
    I've never got an answer to my phone calls in three years and their customer assistans in the shops usually have no clue about whatever it is you're asking them.
    I talked to a few of them in a couple of different Safaricom shops and they didn't know what I was talking about.
    Still, I believe Safaricom is not the problem as other people I know who have a BlackBerry on Safaricom haven't experienced this problem.

  • IPhone 4 iOS7: Playing music over bluetooth, short dropout during mp3-id-transfer

    After upgrading my iPhone 4 to iOS7, i have a little problem with the music-player.
    I use it, playing music in my car over Bluetooth. Everytime a new song starts, I have a short dropout while my iPhone transfers the MP3 tag to my car's soundsystem. It would be no problem, if that happens before starting to play a song, but it starts to play for about half a second, then drops out, sends the tag and my soundsystem displays it, then continues playing.
    I use a Renault Carminat soundsystem with TomTom-Navigation (all builtin).
    Any ideas?
    Untagging the MP3-songs is out of discussion!
    Buying iPhone 5s is in plan, but there must be another solution.

    Hi,
    I'm from germany so no 'best buy' but I think I will lock around sleeve/bag for a different product with same measures. Any tip?
    The clear plastic case is not what I want. I would like to use the player without such protections. I just want a sleeve to protect the player while its in my jacket/pants.
    Btw, i have bought this version: Creative Zen (maybe european version?). I also doesn't seem to have your mentioned sleeve. I also couldn't find it on the website.
    Anyway, thank you,

  • App Store updates no longer works over Bluetooth on iTunes 11

    Up throught iTunes 10.7 I could open the App Store on my iPad and select the updates tab and just click update all, to download all the available updates, and a blue bar would grow across the bottom of the app icons as the update download and would say Installing off to the side and then switch to Open once the application was updated.  That was GREAT!!!
    Now with iTunes 11 and it's horrible interface when I try to update over bluetooth, and click Update all... no blue updating bars and I get a popup that says, "Cannot Connect to iTunes Store" with an "Ok" button.  
    Somehow I found that it would download them when I plugged my USB into my Mac Pro.

  • Sharing internet connection over bluetooth

    i have 2 computers less than 10 metres apart, one of which is connected to the internet broadband. the solution for sharing the connection wirelessly with this particular setup is rather expensive.
    i was wondering if it would be possible to share the internet connection on the computer that has it over bluetooth with the other computer.
    i read an archived response suggesting that it was. can someone confirm?
    just to be clear:
    i hoping to have 2 computers bluetooth connected the second of which will be able to connect to the internet via the 1st computers connection.

    While it is not explicitly supported by OS X, both machines can be configured to do this. For lots of reasons, I don't think that this is a good idea. Your Bluetooth link is so slow compared to either a wireless—or even much faster terrestrial—ethernet link, that it's not worth the effort to enable this service.
    Save yourself a great deal of grief and disappointment, and get ahold of a relatively inexpensive ethernet gateway [wired or wireless] and set up a small local area network. You will be far more secure, and enjoy a far better level of performance than you would see if you attempted to create a Bluetooth LAN.
    That said, here is a set of instructions for enabling internet sharing using Terminal commands. It's paraphrased from…
    http://www.macgeekery.com/hacks/pppoverbluetooth
    In the Bluetooth preference pane's sharing tab, make a new Serial Port Service and name it bt-ppp and make it an RS-232 device. If it's on, disable internet sharing in the Sharing prefpane. Then create the following script [shown below.]
    The script starts pppd on the new Bluetooth serial device you've created, then sets up IP forwarding, NAT, and the like. The en0 can be replaced with en1 if your primary net connection is AirPort. You can change the IP listed to something appropriate for your network, as well. If you put it in the range of IPs you're already using for your home network, natd is smart enough to work as a router instead of a gateway. Run as root, but—for the love of all that is holy and just—use sudo instead of su.
    This is the script you must run in terminal:
    /usr/sbin/pppd /dev/tty.bt-ppp 115200 noauth local passive proxyarp asyncmap 0 silent persist :10.1.1.25 &
    /usr/sbin/sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1
    /usr/sbin/natd -same_ports -use_sockets -log -deny_incoming -interface en0
    /sbin/ipfw add divert natd ip from any to any via en0
    If you are unfamiliar with issuing commands from the Terminal or are not familiar with what these unix commands mean, I would suggest that you proceed very cautiously, and do more research before attempting this.

  • No sound from GB over Bluetooth connection

    The function to perform sound of Garageband over Bluetooth doesn't work well!
    The I-pad settings  to play sound over BT are correct.
    The pairing with my (bluetooth) VOIIS gateway was succesful.
    Music (sound)  from my I-Pad (i.e. Music APP) is transmitted correct to my amplifier  through this device.
    The special setting in Garageband have been done ( sound over Bluetoorth/HDMI)
    however the sound of Garageband over Bluetooth is not transmitted to my BT device.
    Without Bluetooth setting it is working well (sound from I-pad speakers (i should say squeeckers ))

    The problem is solved!
    I did what you suggest a couple of times, but i had no luck.
    What might have somehow fixed the problem: I opened iWeb, and then previewed a GB song to import. It played great.
    Then I opened GB and everything worked...
    Strange.
    Thank you all for your help anyway!
