AirPlay is working on Wi-Fi and/or Bluetooth networks

I have got any wi-fi AirPlay enabled device yet. Today, I use my Bluetooth earphones and discover the AirPlay icon on the iPod app. It seems the AirPlay icon replaces the Bluetooth icon on iPod playback control panel. There are two options: iPhone and MW600 (Bluetooth earphones). I read all the documents that mention wi-fi enabled devices only. How come the Bluetooth devices in AirPlay options?

Hello!
If the WiFi is on then the Pre tends to uses that over the 3G unless their are no avail Wifi connections that it can connect to.  I does support dynamic swapping between the 2 if the other fails as long as both are on.  However to manually switch between the 2 requires turning one or the other off if for some reason you want to specifically connect to one for some reason.  It ususally choose the best possible connection for best possible performance.
It is NOT required to leave WiFi on to use data services on the Pre, you do have the EVDO/1XRTT plan after all.  Turning Wifi off jsut means the Pre will use your Spring Data services.  Using the WiFi connection does not run up the data counter for your Sprint Data plan but that's moot anyways since ALL Pres are requiring unlimited data plans anyways

  • AirPlay not working between iPad/iPhone and ATV

    I live in an apartment with communal wifi and I'm unable to use AirPlay between my iPad and iPhone and my ATV. When I go to AirPlay on either device I'm able to see neighbors' ATVs; however, my own ATV is not listed. All three devices are connected to the same network. Any idea how I can make my ATV available? Thank you!

    Welcome to the Apple Community Chicago Bandit.
    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. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    Restart your mobile device.

  • Airplay not working on Airport Express N in Extended Network

    Hi
    I have a setup as in the diagram below. Internet Router connected to my Airport Express N which creates a N-class network. Then I have an Time Capsule in another room that extends this network. My iMac is connected to this Time Capsule using Ethernet (WiFi is turned off completely).
    iTunes is 10.6.1 (7)
    Airport Express and Time Capsule have the latest firmware (v7.6.1)
    Internet, sharing and other functions are working fine, just Airplay from the iMac doesn't work anymore to the Airport Express. I've tried lots of solutions, and this just seems to be broken. I've submitted to Apple feedback as well explaining the situation and that this doesn't work.
    If I add/remove a password or enable/disable airplay on the Express, it does reflect in iTunes. It also shows that the Airplay is locked/unlocked (see image) and also shows it as a visible audio destination. But when you activate it from iTunes, it doesn't ask for any password (if enabled), but it just displays the "connecting" dialog for about 1 minute and then closes the window without any error and just does nothing. It's like iTunes cannot communicate to the Airport Express, although at the same time I can connect to it's internal configuration (edit) and also connect to the internet, my router's config using a browser, etc. without any problems. Also, if I'm using my iPad and iPhone, I can easily use the Airport Express from those devices, but NOT from the iMac.
    I'm thinking Apple broke Airplay in this type of scenario.
    Anyone with any ideas. I have a big hot paperweight called an Airport Express plugged into the wall in my bedroom now.

    My problem is similar but not always the same.  I have a Time Capsule extended by an Airport Express which in turn is connected to my hifi.  My Imac is connected to the TC by Ethernet alone - no wifi.  The connection from the TC to my AE is done by a mains wiring ethernet connection which works superbly for TV streaming etc.  However, sometimes when I try to connect to the AE for music, I get an error message whicg says that is not possible to connect to the Airplay device.  If I restart the Imac, it connects immediately and without problem and will run for as long as I want.  Once stopped, I then get the error messge again until I restart.

  • Airplay not working between MLB app and Apple TV

    Hello
    I'm having Airplay problems, specifically between the MLB at bat app for 2012 and my AppleTV's with the most recent software update. Here's the details:
    -I'm using an ipod touch and and ipad, both with all updates
    -the two appletv's with the most recent software update don't receive the airplay from the mlb app, but...
    -an appletv that hasn't been updated (still has the text menus and not the 'tile' icons) works
    -all other streaming apps from either iOS device (pandora, radio, etc.) work with ALL the appletv's
    So, it's just the combination of the mlb app and the most up to date (software wise) appletv 2's
    Other potentially relevant info:
    -all three appletv's mentioned above are the black appletv 2 versions, but they are 2010 models, not the recently updated ones
    -I do have an older apple tv 1 (silver, hard drive), that has been hacked with the remote HD installation, and it doesn't work either...it worked fine with last years mlb app, but not this years...and it at least gives an error message saying that there's an 'error loading this content'
    -the appletv 2's that aren't working don't give any kind of error message, they just have the perpetually spinning gear icon
    -the iOS mlb app does give some indication that it isn't happy, but I can't remember the exact verbage...may be as simple as 'stopped', that is you keep hitting play, it trys to play, then displays 'stopped'...something like that
    -I'm hoping that whatever fixes the mlb stream to the appletv 2's will also magically fix the stream to the older apple tv 1, though I completely understand that that function isn't at all supported.
    thanks for help!

    The 4s will work with the MLB app and AirPlay if you turn on MIRROR mode.  It doesn't actually mirror the display, it projects the video as you would expect it to with AirPlay.  Unfortunately there are three 4's in my family and they don't work at all!

  • TS1741 Airplay stopped working between iPhone 5 and Apple TV. Icon no longer appears cannot connect remote app anymore either?

    Anybody have ideas why.

    Most likely because your phone or your Apple TV has lost WiFI connection to your local network.  Not enough info in your post for a more specific suggestion.

  • Setup Airport Extreme for the home wireless - MacBook Air, Pro, and iPad connect just fine.  Wireless will not work to Windows 7 and Vista machines - network seen, tries to connect, but fails after entering WPA key.

    Can't get Windows Vista or Windows 7 laptops to access internet via Airport Extreme.  Works fine with security on MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and iPad.  Brand new Airport, bought today.  Windows machines worked fine with existing, relatively modern Cisco home router.    The Windows machines see the wireless network, prompt for password, and then cannot connect.  Have tried all sorts of things with Windows machines, deleted existing networks, etc. even tried guest login with no security on the Airport - no luck.  Windows XP machine directly (wire) connected works fine.  Magic Jack works OK.  Light is green on the front.

    Thank you very much for your help @Sunshyn2005!!!!! I think we're good to go now!

    have an airplay enabled AV Receiver - how do i set up Airplay
    I have a Yamaha RX-V673 which is Airplay enabled, but i can't get Airplay to work either on my Mac book or my iphone. The receiver is connected to my network and i can control it using the iphone App and via the web browser option.
    Do I need Apple TV or to change some settings somewhere?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    You are making some progress with setup of wireless network. Apparently there is reliability problem with the wireless connection. Perhaps you want to refer to following Apple support documents and start tweaking parameters in the router to improve the reliability. I used to have third-party routers such as Belkin and Netgear but switched to Apple Airport routers (Time Capsule then Airport Extreme for now) because of incompatibility issues whenever Apple upgrade Mac OS X. But since Apple develops Airplay protocol as alternative to Bluetooth for wireless audio/video streaming (with much better bandwidth) and must be deployed in any wireless network, there is no reason third-party routers not working for Airplay protocol.

  • Airplay won't work with Apple TV and iPad 2

    I have an iPad 2 running iOS 8.1 and an Apple TV 3 with the latest software and I can't use Airplay to send content to my Apple TV. I know there is no issue with the Apple TV since I can use Airplay to send content to my Apple TV using my iPhone 6, and Macbook, but not using my iPad. Oddly, Airplay will work on my iPad when I connect to my airport express, but not to my Apple TV - Apple TV doesn't appear in the drop down menu yet my airport express does! I have gone through all the usual fixes (restarting, restoring, etc. etc.) - to no avail, my iPad simply can not find my Apple TV for some reason. Any help would be greatly appreciated! cheers, d

    I Have the same problem with iOS 8.2 and the latest OS for the Apple TV. My Apple TV is connected by ethernet as is my iMac. I can stream to the Apple TV from my iMac via this ethernet setup. But my iPad and iPhone 5s with iOS 8.2 won't connect even though I can see the AirPlay button and the sound a pics go blank on the iPhone and iPad .
    I Have been suing AirPlay for several years with no prob,ms until now. I am running Yosemite OS on the iMac.

  • Airplay is not working with my phone and apple tv. airplay icon no longer comes up on phone

    airplay is not working on my phone. icon no longer shows up. cant play music or videos on tv from phone anymore

    As the original poster, I too had issues with my iPhone 4 (4.2.1) and Apple TV 2 playing nice. The Airplay icon was visible for music, and worked perfectly. However, when watching a video, purchased through iTunes, only the "audio" option would be selectable for Airplay. After updating the Apple TV software, everything works perfectly well. When watching a video on my iPhone and selecting the Airplay icon, one of the options is to play "video" through the Apple TV, not simply audio.
    It would have been nice to know that my Apple TV needed an update when I updated my iPhone 4 to 4.2.1.

  • How can I switch on my Apple TV speakers when it asks "multiple speakers" I cannot switch off my computer speakers and switch on my Apple TV speakers so cannot get airplay to work?

    How can I get my Apple TV airplay to work from my PC.  On the airplay symbol it says Multiple Peakers please choose but I cannot switch off my computer speakers and switch on my Apple TV speakers so cannot get airplay to work from my PC.  Everything is OK when using my Ipod touch.

    Don't use Multiple Speakers option and just choose the AppleTV
    What are you trying to Airplay? If it's iTunes content it's simpler to 'pull' the stream from the Computers icson on AppleTV by selecting the libarry and media.
    If you are attempting to Airplay the desktop you can't.

  • I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay.  Works perfectly with my iPod Touch.  The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect.  Running latest IOS software.

    I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay.  Works perfectly with my iPod Touch.  The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect.  Running latest IOS software.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    You said:
    No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this. 
    That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem.

  • HT204371 Does Airport Express need to be configured to allow AirPlay to work between an iPhone 4s and an iPad2?

    Does Airport Express need to be configured to allow AirPlay to work between an iPhone 4s and an iPad2? 
    Also, attempting to use Airplay with iOS7 shuts off sound to the speakers while allowing sound thru the ear buds!  The fix was to restart by depressing the lock switch (opposite the sound out port).

    Does Airport Express need to be configured to allow AirPlay to work between an iPhone 4s and an iPad2?
    You need a minimum of three things for AirPlay:
    An iTunes host. This can be a Mac, PC, or iOS device.
    A wired or wireless network.
    An AirPlay Speaker. This can be an AirPort Express, Apple TV, or a AirPlay-Ready device.
    Is your goal to stream between two iOS devices?
