AirPlay dual screen: iPad / appletv (non gaming question)

Can I send a streaming video from an app/web site (ie. march madness) on my ipad2 to my apple tv using AirPlay - then do something else on my iPad (ie. words with friends), without interrupting the streaming video?

It my understand that  some app support multitasking, while other do not

  • IPad mini Retina refuses to go into Dual Screen mode on AppleTV. Any Solutions?

    I've tried many games such as "Real Racing 2 HD" or "Sky Gamblers: Air Supremacy" - the iPad mini Retina just mirrors the image (in a bad quality) but shows the same on the TV and the iPad... On the iPhone 5 or the iPad 2 it switches correctly into the Dual Screen Mode as soon as the app launches - the iPad mini refuses to do so...
    Is this a (software) bug of the iPad mini Retina in general or is it a hardware issue with my mini retina?
    The Apple Photo-App works just fine and also the music playback over the TV-Speaker works properly.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    On the basis that you get poor quality mirroring when things do work, you presumably have network problems, it may be worth investigating these and solving them before troubleshooting the iPad mini.

  • Why is someone's iPad trying to access an AirPlay code on my AppleTV- Gen 2?

    Why is someone's iPad trying to access an AirPlay code on my AppleTV- Gen 2?
    My wireless router is password protected.
    I've even changed the AppleTV's identity from "living room" to something personal so that the individual isn't confused finding their own?
    For a couple of days my iPad and computer were off and it still happened around the same time as well!
    I thought in order to use AirPlay one has to be connected to my wireless network. I may be impatient for results, but last night I've refreshed my Netgear router in order to create a new pass phrase, password, hid my wireless network from others and such. I mean we just moved in our apartment 4 days ago, can someone really steal our router username and password that quickly!
    Thank you in advance for your help!

    I would suggest doing a restore of your Apple TV from recovery mode.

    And maybe put a password on your Apple TV.  Also try changing the name of your Apple TV to something non-generic.

  • There is a feature on the Ad on using iPad with apple tv as a dual screen such as the iPad as agame controller, how is this being set up or done?

    This is something the app developer enables within airplay mirroring.
    There is nothing you can do to enable that.
    If you are unsure how to enable mirroring

  • In the past I have viewed video from my iPhone and iPad with 8.3 on my Sony TV with AppleTV Gen 1. Now I have audio coming from my Sony TV but NO video. AirPlay is ON to AppleTV. Suggestions?

    I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 8.3 and I have an AppleTV Gen 1 that is connected to a Sony TV and I have viewed photos from my iPhone before but now I only hear audio that comes from my iPhone on the Sony TV but no video. iPhone's AirPlay is ON to AppleTV. Why don't I have video? Same thing happens with iPad Air

    AIrplay is not supported on 1st gen, I assume you have a 2nd gen (black box). Not all apps are enabled for AirPlay, this would be up to the developers to do

  • HT4428 My 128 Gb iPad cannot do airplay mirroring with Apple TV 3.  It only airplays with screen off (like iPad 1), and it can only do airplay with apps which have the airplay button.  No airplay button when sliding the bottom opened apps to the right.

    My 128 Gb iPad cannot do airplay mirroring with Apple TV 3.  It only airplays with screen off (like iPad 1), and it can only do airplay with apps which have the airplay button.  No airplay button when sliding the bottom opened apps to the right!  Note : This problem persists after HDMI cable has been changed, and Apple TV was reset.  My another iPad 4 64Gb also on the same most updated ISO has no problem.  

    I restarted the iPad, it is okay now!  I think it is because I have been using the smart cover for too long, without shutting down the iPad completely!  It just works fine with the airplay signal appearing again after restarting the iPad.

  • GTX 780TI GAMING 3G dual screen issue

    Hi,
    Been searching around but I don't seem to be able to hone in on the right search criteria to find anything.
    I have the 780ti running dual screens. I have a nice new 144hz widescreen and I'm running an old Philips 75hz as general purpose screen next to it. I'm keeping hold of the old one at the minute as it works well with my gfs work laptop when she needs a full screen.
    When I bring a game up and try and run it on the 144hz screen it tries to swap screen constantly. It flicks back and forwards across both screens at a rapid rate.
    I had this working on my very old twin 4870s (you can tell how long I've been out of the game literally) but it occurred to me that I was running a screen off each card. So now I'm wondering if I can run two screens of one 780ti? If that's the case I'll just get another one which I plan to do in the future anyway. But after splashing out 2k on a new machine spending another 500 isn't going to make the gf happy.

    It isn't that I want to run across both.
    I wanted the game on 1 screen and another screen to put up web pages, voice server etc.
     I guess it is the same difference to the card though. I may just be better of with another card and another 144hz screen.
    I would've thought running the game windowed and making sure it didn't stray onto the other screen would be possible.

  • HT1758 Can i connect my non apple laptop to my iMac and use the iMac as an extra/dual screen while using my laptop?

    Got a new laptop from work, no choice on the type, but want to plug it's docking station into my iMac so I can use dual screens while using the laptop. Can I use the Ethernet port for this?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Target Display mode only supports Late 2009 and Mid 2010 27-inch iMacs, and Mid 2011 and newer iMacs to use them as external displays, but it only works over Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt, not Ethernet.
    Your PC needs Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt (depending on your iMac) to be able to use your iMac as an external display, so it is probably that you cannot use the iMac as an external display. Instead, look for information in the Internet about VNC viewers that allow you to do that

  • How can I use AirPlay on an Ipad 1?

    the Ipad 1 doesn't seem to include AirPlay.  Is there any way I can obtain AirPlay or some alternative app so I can display my Ipad screen on my MacBook Pro?

  • Problem with dual screen (24" imac 2006 ver)

    hi
    i've got a 24" intel imac (2006 ver) and i've connected it using apple's mini-dvi => vga adapter to my 2nd 22" lcd monitor, a samsung 2232GW, which is set to 1680 x 1050.
    however, the samsung lcd displays (when i'm using as dual screen) is quite blur and double imaged. quality is readable but very irritating. i'm also using the same monitor for my ps3 (uses the DVI side) and have no problem with any visual aspect. I've tried playing around with the settings like resolution and calibration and tuning but didn't help at all.
    anyone might have any ideas and enlighten me on this issue?
    thanks

    Did you get any resolution to your question? I have the Samsung monitor almost like yours, and I posted two seconds ago. I think I have a similar problem. I had been using my Samsung with my PC, and just switched to Mac. I loved my Samsung, but now ,for the first time using as a second. Hooked up to mini dvi to dvi, and reported a glow, or tinge coming around any window that I may place on the Samsung.Also, when Ilook at the background around the window I can see that the resolution is not perfect and is breaking up a little. Did you try VGA? and did it help? Curious to know

  • Dual screen problem in CS5

    I have been using dual screens with no problems until I installed PS CS5. Now when I drag an image onto the secondary screen the canvas goes black as soon as I relsease the mouse. I can see the rulers etc. and when dragging across the diaplay the image can be seen but as soon as I 'let go' it's blacked out. The really frustrating thing is that this doesn't happen in AI or Dreamweaver (or indeed any other program!).
    So far I have
    Reset the monitors
    when changed to show the same on both screens (clone) the image can be seen perfectly ok on both screens
    when the secondary monitor is made the primary the problem remains (i.e. the PS image is blacked out on that monitor)
    Checked for updates for the monitors (none needed)
    Checked CS5 up to date (no updates required)
    Checked for graphics card updates (none needed) - NVidia GeForce 8600 GTS
    Uninstalled and re installed PS
    Pointed in an annoyed manner at the useless window open on my secondary screen
    Is there something simple that I have mistakenly chosen that is preventing the use of my secondary screen?

    Check to see if nVidia has released an updated driver for your hardware.  Go to their web site to check.
    Unfortunately, from my observations nVidia may have neglected to keep their driver quality up with later releases for the 8600 GT.  I have reports from some of my own customers using my OpenGL software that the driver is troublesome, and have actually reported better results from an older driver version than the very latest release.
    Other things you can try to work around the problem:
    In Photoshop, Edit - Preferences - Performance, [Advanced...] and change to Basic mode.
    Try disabling OpenGL drawing entirely.  If that corrects the issue it's almost a certainty that the nVidia driver is at fault.

  • Dual screens with x1600 mobility & open source driver

    Sorry the tabs are a little screwed up, but I think it's still easy enough to read.  When I start the xserver using this file the external monitor appears to be functioning properly, but the internal display is black.  Moving the mouse off to the right of the external display causes the cursor to appear on the internal display using the default X cursor theme.  The mouse then remains trapped on the internal monitor.  Other than displaying the cursor, the internal display seems to be non-functional.
    If I comment out the Screen...1 line in the ServerLayout section I can get both monitors working with xrandr, but this causes other issues and is not what I want.  Does anybody know how I could get two real screen going?
    Thanks!

  • Dual screen hd cinema 30" on Win7

    Hi,
    I would like to know how to configure my apple hd cinema screen on windows 7. My computer is a macbookpro 15 and I want to use them like dual screen, at this moment I just see clone screens. I would like to have different application on each screen, I work with autocad. Is it possible to have different resolution on each screen ?

    Anyone here can help me with the following? After trying to play a blu-ray film on my 30" screen I get an error saying my screen is NOT HDCP compatible.
    What software are you using? Is it running under OSX? If you are using Boot Camp, try AnyDVD HD
    <http://www.slysoft.com/en/anydvdhd.html>
    It should work with a non-HDCP display.
    Which I think is very strange, because i learned that this HDCP was just put on blu-ray discs to prevent copying it. How can you copy a disc on a SCREEN?
    They are worried about copying the digital video from the DVI port. HDCP keeps it encrypted all the way into the display.
    Before I bought the screen i looked at all technical details from the screen on the Apple website, and no where I can find it doesnt support HDCP.
    No where does it say that it does support HDCP.
    Why else call it HD CINEMA screen if you can play HD content on it?
    It can display HD, just not encrypted DVI.
    Is there a solution for this problem or did I just waste 1800.- ??
    AnyDVD HD if you are using Boot Camp.
    There are some 30" displays with HDCP, such as:

  • Trouble using AirPlay between iMac and AppleTV

    I'm running OS X Lion 10.7.5 and I'm having trouble using AirPlay between iMac and AppleTV (2nd Gen).  It used to work fine, but for some reason it just stopped responding.  I can see my media on my iMac from AppleTV and I can see AppleTV from my iMac when attempting to use AirPlay.  However, when I try to pull or push media from my iMac to AppleTV it just stalls and never loads.  AirPlay works fine from my iPhone and iPad with AppleTV - it's limited to my iMac only. 
    I'm using a Netgear R7000 wireless router and a Netgear AC120 WiFi Extender and as such, I have 4 available wireless networks (2 from the router and 2 from the extender / 2 - 2.4 GHz and 2 - 5 GHz).  My internet access is great and my network performance is good across the board.  All of my software/firmware is up to date (iMac, AppleTV and router/extenders). I've tried all combinations (mixing/matching) all of my wireless networks between devices (iMac/AppleTV) - nothing makes a difference (again, AirPlay works fine between my mobile devises/AppleTV).  Netgear Genie has been making changes to my network settings as new firmware has been installed in both the router and extender.  I'm guessing there is something screwy going on with the network settings on the iMac, but I can't figure it out.
    Anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    I'm glad you got it all working. Out of interest, how do you (or your son) connect to the internet now? Is it just a dial-up connection? If it is, I am sure you know that, even if you get the Apple TV to share the connection, the speed will seriously limit the use of many of the Apple TV's features.
    The Airport Extreme is a great router but you will need a DSL or cable modem as well as it won't connect to the internet without one. There are many great (and cheaper!) combined modem/routers available if your son wants to get a high-speed network up and running at lower cost. Any other computers, phones, games consoles etc that you may have in the house can then all connect easily.
    I hope that I have helped a little and I will look out for future posts in case I can help again.
