Airplay icon not showing on ipad 3

Have just purchased an Apple TV 3 and set it up wanting to mirror my Ipad 3. I tried to find the Airplay icon by doubleclicking on the Home button but it wasn't there. I also can't find it when playing video for example.
Both devices have latest S/W and are on the same Wireless Network.
Anyone expierienced this?

    It's not necessary, but is a good troubleshooting step.  How to do so varies from brand to brand.  Look at the manufacturers website, they should have a manual available that explains how to access the settings and change it.

    In that case, I would strongly encourage you to connect them via a short Ethernet cable.  The proximity of the two devices could be the culprit in the video quality issues.

  • Airplay icon not showing up even though all devices connected to network

    I have an ipad (about 1.5 years old) and a macbook pro (about 2 years old), and I just recently got the newest apple tv (I apologize for not knowing the exact models of what I have). Everything has the most recent updated software, but I have been having a lot of trouble with the airplay. The icon only shows up about 1/3 of the time we try to use it (on both the macbook and the ipad). I double and triple check that everything is connected to the network, and i even restart all of my devices multiple times. Sometimes it eventually ends up showing up and working great, sometimes we get so frustrated and just quit trying. The crazy thing is that other times when Im not trying to use the airplay, I see the icon all the time! What is going on here? Does anyone have any tips to get the airplay to work besides just restarting everything until it decides to appear?? Thanks so much

    It could be due to interference on the network. Check istumbler.net to verify

  • Airplay Icon not showing in iTunes

    I have a problem with my Win8.1 laptop and the current iTunes version 11.3.0 using airplay with my ATV 1 (current firmware)
    Airplay usually works when I start up iTunes after booting the ATV but what really bothers me is that when my laptop looses WLAN connectivity for a few seconds, iTunes won't reconnect to the ATV and ask me to use the computer instead. After that the airplay icon disappears, and won't reapper until I have restarted the ATV and the laptop (alltough it may be that restarting the ATV isn't necessary).
    I have disabled IPV6 and tried restarting iTunes, the Bonjour service and the WLAN adapter, nothing helps but a restart.
    Airplay however continues to work fine with my iPhone / iPad.
    Any hints on what might be causing this? If not I'd suggest that the Apple developers overthink the discovery algorimth for airplay devices...

    Sorry, my bad, I have mistaken my ATV for a 1G in fact its a 2G. can't seem to change the first post but there you go.
    I connected the ATV to my iTunes lib to try the starting / stopping a song, but it didn't help. Also I'd prefer a solution that doesn't need the TV to be turned on (right now I'm using the optical coax out for music only). Thanks for the tip though.
    Further suggestions would be appreciated.

  • HT3819 Airplay icon not showing in iTunes on Windows 7

    I recently installed a USB wireless connection to my desktop so I could have a wireless connection to iTunes and use Airplay. At firdt it worked great but now the Airplay icon does not display and I can not seem to get it back. I have home sharing turned on in iTunes and it works on my iPad mini and iPhone 5. I have tried several of the suggested fixes including removing and reinstalling iTunes 11. All to no avail. Any suggestions?

    Temporarily disable any security software on the computer.

  • Airplay Icon not Showing when connected to my car's bluetooth stereo

    I have an UVO system in my Kia. It has been working great with the Iphone Airplay since October. I recently updated my phone and now, just like many others, no airplay showing up on my music apps.
    I basically use Spotify and Pandora all the time with zero issues. Now when my phone is connected to my car through bluetooth, my phone works perfectly and can talk through the speakers for calls but the music apps do not display the icon to switch between dock connector or bluetooth audio. This has led me to believe it's not a problem with my UVO system in my car but rather an apple related issue. Why would they dissapear? I have tried shutting off, rebooting, and all that jazz on both my Iphone 4 and Ipad2. Also, even when connected through the USB port, the UVO still doesnt recognize the audio.
    Any advice would be awesome!

    I DON'T text and drive. I just want be able to hear, for example, alerts that I have put on my calendar. I can/do pull over to look at texts--but not when I don't know that I have a message. This was never an issue until a couple of weeks ago.

  • Airplay icon not showing up on iTunes on Windows, but it is showing up on other devices

    I haven't used airplay in a while (few weeks), but went to play some music and icon is not populating. I have the latest version of iTunes and it might be the issue. Firewall and router are not the issues. It works on my iPad, iPhone, etc.
    I am sick of continuously having issues with Apple and these ******** problems? Why must I pay for a product that will fail to work?

  • HT204291 airplay icon not showing up on windows  laptop when appletv is connected through ethernet

    itunes cannot detect apple tv when apple tv is connected through ethernet and the laptop is wireless, although both devices are in the same overall network.

    Then I suspect your network or it's settings are your problem.

    The trouble is that when I am connected to the extreme, I can see the Apple TV's. when on the bridged Express, I can't. Why?

    To use AirPlay, you need the following:
    1. iPhone 4s (or later), iPad 2 (or later), iPad mini, or iPod touch (5th generation)
    2. Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation)
    3. AirPort Express
    4. Wi-Fi (802.11a/g/n) network

  • So, I just purchased, apple TV and the latest Mountain Lion 10.8.5. I can mirror my IPad and Iphone with no problems, so why is the icon not showing up on my top bar like all the youtube tutorials?

    why is the airplay icon not appearing in the top bad like all the tutorial videos?

    I assume that you did not check before buying, if you had you would have seen that your Mac is too old for Airplay Mirroring to work:
    Supported Macs
    AirPlay Mirroring in OS X Mountain Lion takes advantage of the hardware video encoding capabilities of 2nd and 3rd Generation Intel Core processors. Hardware video encoding allows AirPlay Mirroring to efficiently deliver high frame rates while maintaining optimal system performance. The following Mac models have processors that support AirPlay Mirroring:
    iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)
    Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)
    MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer)
    And if you bought ML solely for that function you should remove it from your machine and get a refund.

  • Airplay icon not working on any devices now...

    My TECH:
    ATV3
    iPad 3
    iPhone 5
    Internal Airport Internet Sharing
    iMac 11,3
    I'm getting extremely frustrated with how my ATV3's Airplay function is up and down for working. This has happened before and after the i0S6 updates...
    Basically, I can never get the Airplay icons to show up on my devices. I have to restart my computer, the ATV, my devices and sooner or later one of them will work. But now they absolutely do not show up.
    I have two Itunes account (US/JP) I don't think that should be a problem. Is there something in the Internet Sharing Options I'm not doing right?
    Any help soon would be greatly appreciated as I use the AirPlay for demonstration and NOTHING is working. 

    So I tried to do a restore via Itunes.... and now it's this endless cycle of plugging it back into the TV and it telling me to plug it back into Itunes. Restore again... Repeat.....
