Airplay icon gone missing

Hi, only got my iPad 2 yesterday and have set it up along with our new Apple TV (2nd Gen). Am having a few probs but the main one being that the little airplay icon thingy that used to come up when I play a movie has disappeared. I also followed the instructions about pressing the home button twice and then swiping to the right, but this just brings up the play button etc for music/movie. Can anybody help...am desperate to sort out airplay and mirroring.
Thanks

I will save you the trouble!
I had the same problem and went in to apple it worked fine there!
They told me that they had to reset all there routers because of the new OS iOS 5.
That worked for me but if that dosent work you have to restore it or take it into apple.

  • HT204291 Since updating to OSX Mavericks, my airplay icon is missing

    Since updating to OSX Mavericks my airplay icon is missing from my IMac (3.06GHZ).  However, it is present and working completely appropriately on my Macbook Pro with Retina display.  Both have the same OSX, Apple TV is fully updated.  I have reset my computers, appleTV, routers, iTunes multiple times, but it's just my IMac that is having the problems displaying the Airplay icon.  Not sure what else can be done or why one computer works while the other doesn't when the settings are otherwise the same.  Airplay worked on it without problem before the patch.

    1) open control panel.
    2)Choose Network and internet
    3)Select the VIEW NETWORK STATUS TASKS under NETWORK and SHARING CENTER section
    4) Choose the active network connection. It is usually name " wireless Network Connection 1" or something similiar.
    5) Click the properties button
    6) If the Internet PROTOCOL VERSION 6(TCP/IPv6) is checked, uncheck it, then click OK.
    7) Click CLOSE
    8) Restart iTunes and try to use the Home Sharing feature again.

  • AirPlay icon is missing from iMac

    I just bought a brand new iMac and apple tv 3rd gen. I have managed to connect my 2 iPads and iPhones to AirPlay through my wifi no dramas. The airplay icon is also on my iMac iTunes. Problem is the icon is missing from the top menu so I can't mirror the iMac screen. I've read through the forums and found nothing to help. Why can I connect with everything else, iTunes on my iMac but not mirror it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!:)!

    Solved!
    I assumed I had the latest version of lion since I bought the system couple of days ago. (Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4)
    I was wrong, redeemed my code for a free upgrade to Mac OS X 10.8 and all works perfect
    Good luck

  • Phone  icon  gone missing

    My granddaughter was playing with my phone and   now my   green icon for the phone is  gone missing... I know it says you cannot  delete it, but there are only  3  icons on the  bottom  row now... HELP...

    It's a pre-installed app and therefore cannot be deleted so you may have inadvertently moved it onto a screen or into a folder, the most common folder is one called utilities.  Check all screens and folders and do a search in Spotlight, it will tell you if the app it still on your iPhone but unfortunately not where it is. If you find it on one or your screens or in a folder, press the icon until it wiggles and then drag it back to where you want it.  Alternatively you can reset your home screen in Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • AirPlay icon gone after iOS 8 upgrade

    I Upgraded to iOS 8 and the AirPlay icon disappeared. I have already rebooted and shutoff wifi based on suggestions I saw in the forums.  Any other suggestions?

    Hey Homerdave, 
    Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities. 
    If you do not see the AirPlay icon on your iPad after updating to iOS 8, start with the troubleshooting tips in this article:

  • Where has my airplay icon gone?

    Updating Apple TV seems to have locked out the airplay icon. My ipad and the Apple TV are both connected to the same network but no icon appears for enabling mirroring. Any suggestions please?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    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.
    Restart your router.
    Restart your mobile device.

  • Airplay icon gone from iPad

    My AirPlay icon has disappeared from my video player and I can't seem to get it back.  Suggestions?

    True.  But the toys really aren't optional - they all make such perfect sense.  Who could go back to digging through 400 CD's on a rack, then playing them one at a time, on one set of speakers, in one room?  It's beautiful when it all works, but when it breaks, as it's wont to do, you're off troubleshooting instead of relaxing and listening.
    Apple's got the right idea, though.  When everything has to hew to the same standards, things are a lot simpler than when it all *should* work, somehow, but doesn't, and no one's sure why not, and the help desk is in Bangalore with second-level backup God knows where, and it's another hour out of your life mostly waiting on hold.
    Technology complexifies as it enriches.

  • App store icon gone missing/Web Content Filter - Apple Configurator

    I am using Apple Configurator to manage the iPads at my school. I changed the settings on my school's profile, within Apple Configurator, so that the App store was not available. The App store icon disappeared and all was good. I decided to change the settings back, to allow the App store, saved the settings and refreshed a group of iPads. The App store icon is still missing and it doesn't appear that my new settings have been applied. I quit Configurator and tried again, but no success. I am running Configurator 1.5 and the ipads are running iOS 7.1.
    Also, I have unchecked the "Allow use of You Tube" button because I want You Tube disabled, but Configurator still allows the use of You Tube through Safari. Is there any way to disable the use of You Tube without using the ridiculous "Web Content Filter", that when activated, limits adult content (good), which seems to include a lot of valuable educational sites (bad)? To me the only other option available seems to be to tick "Specific Websites Only" and spend the next year typing in all the possible sites that might have educational merit, ergo, my use of the word 'ridiculous'. Is there something I am missing?

    Locate it in the Apps folder and drag it to the dock.

  • Where has my airplay icon gone from my macbook?

    We have Apple TV, which we use regularly. But when attempting to go into it for the second time tonight, the icon has disappeared from both the Macbook and our iPhones. We've tried re-setting the Macbook Air and have also switched on and off the Apple TV box. Still nothing.

    Airplay is over the local network so internet speed is not relevant.
    If doing the network test on the device that will not be accurate. You need to go to istumbler or similar to get a network report, look for signal strength, noise, nearby networks.
    If on wifi try ethernet

  • Neat little spooky "Home" icon gone missing on iPhone.  Anyone know about it?

    I've had a neat little icon that can be moved around on my Home Page that will take me home at a flick, as well as take me other places I might choose.  It was a dark circle with a lighter circle in the center and could be moved anywhere on the face of the iPhone.  It was present on all pages and was a real boon.  Does anyone know what it is called and how I can get it back?
    Thanks in advance.   ....goldie

    Thank you so much Mr. Allen Sampson for your prompt and acurate response!  That is what I was looking for.  I really do like it even though it's like a little puppy dog always getting under foot.
