Airplay only works whenever Apple TV is connected through wired connection

Hello,
I got a Apple TV for christmas, however i can't seem to get it working properly with airplay with my ipad mini or iphone.
If i use a wired connection the airplay icon shows up on my ipad and iphone just fine, but if i use the wireless connection
the airplay icon just won't show up, but Apple TV got internet and full signal.
I've use this http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4215 troubleshoot and tried to find others with the same problem with no luck.
It's the same network they are connected to, they both have internet, but no airplay.
I hope anyone can help me fix this, since i only got 1 internet connection in each room, which in this room is used by a computer.
Thank you in advance.

Have been on Apple products since Apple 2 euro plus in 1982. Apple TV is strictly a wired product if you want a consistent and reliable product. Safe to treat it as a Beta product.

Multi-Touch Touchpad only works with Apple apps?

Hi, I was wondering if the touch gesture on the touchpad only works with Apple apps. I can not get the 3 finger swipe to work on Firefox but it works on Safari. Do you guys know if there is a way to get around this problem?

I can not get the 3 finger swipe to work on Firefox but it works on Safari.
Another reasons to go with Safari as your main Browser. It has ever improving performance too. Firefox is a bit out of date imo now (The Mozilla Foundation is actually going through beta testing and development of an improved browser), so offers little apart from customization of its appearance, not a factor ahead of Safari either imo since it has a neat professional appearance.

Airplay only works for Netflix

I'm using an iPad Air running iso 8.1.2. I can watch Netflix using airplay but can't show anything else. Apple online support indicates I need to turn on mirroring, but I can't find the switch, their example shows mirroring in iso 7 on a phone and doesn't help. My objective is to show a Numbers spreadsheet using airplay during a meeting. Can you help?

Sound works fine for Netflix but nothing else works - Youtube, Inetrnet Radio, Podcast, Vimeo, etc. The picture works fine but no audio. Downloaded and installed the most recent firmware. Any ideas?
I just purchased the new apple 3rd generation. During set-up, I downloaded the latest up-date. I have the same trouble... 'Audio only works for Netflix'. Any fixes?

How do i get airplay to work with apple tv

how do i get airplay for ipad2 to work with apple tv?

1. Insure home sharing is turned on both apple tv & the iPad - same account
2. When playing video or audio look for the little square usually lower left corner press it and select
Apple tv!
3. For mirroring double press home button (or multi finger slide up) scroll
All the way to the left & turn on AirPlay and choose mirroring!

Sleep only working via Apple Menu?

Hi,
since today I have a very strange problem with my iMac: Sleep is only working through the apple menu. If I set up energy saver or press cmdshifteject, the computer won't sleep, only the display sleep will work (so the display switches off after the amount of time I set in energy saver, or if I press the keyboard shortcut the display turns off but the mac stays on)
Any ideas on this? It happens on all accounts, I already tried SMC and PRAM resets and disabled wake on lan and all sharings. I also trashed the PowerManagement.plist
It maybe helpful, that "pmset sleepnow" from terminal works fine. It seems that energy saver and the keyboard shortcut use another way to send the imac to sleep, which stopped working.
ideas?

Delete the following .plist files and restart:
-/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist-/Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist--
(username is your name or System Administrators name)
-/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.AutoWake.plist
A restart is very important after deleting these plists. After a reboot your Mac will then generate new ones.
More on sleep, some of which you tried.......
This is for a Mac that won't sleep.
Here is Apple doc.#303698 with their tips.
Mine follow;
USB devices and hubs often cause Macs to not sleep or wake quickly from sleep (notably HP printers and scanners, HP all in ones, and Cannon scanners). Disconnect all USB except for keyboard and mouse and try. If it sleeps, add one back at a time testing after each one to find the culprit.
If you've set your Mac to receive faxes, it may not be able to sleep. It might also have a damaged preferences file.
If you use your Mac for faxing, open System Preferences. click Print & Fax, click the Faxing tab, and uncheck the Receive Faxes On This Computer box.
If that doesn't work or you've never faxed on your Mac, go to Finder/Hard Drive /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration and delete the com.apple.PowerManagement.plist and com..apple.AutoWake.plist files (if your Mac asks, type your admin. password).
If the latter file isn't present in the folder, go to user name(probably your name)/Library/Preferences, delete the com.apple.systemuiserver.plist file, and reboot your Mac.
Some, in these forums, have had luck fixing sleep issues downloading the Combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update (10.6.4 Combo, etc.), disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse,Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try.
You can install it right over what you have now.
Many here have reported no wake from sleep or failure to sleep, running 10.6.3 on MacBooks, using Parallels and VMware. No solution yet.
USER TIPS...
In System Preferences > Energy Saver is "Wake for network access" checked?
If so uncheck it and test.
Also, if you have an External Western Digital (WD) hard drive and have installed
WDDMService and WDSmartWareD on your Mac, it may not sleep. Fix is to un-install those....you don't need them to use the drive.
"I have had this problem with my IMac G5. It is surprisingly irritating. LaCie's Silverkeeper backup software was the cause. By default it gave itself permission to wake up the computer to check if a backup was needed. Do you have this or a similar program installed which has scheduled activities including wake-up permissions as an option?"
One provided this link, xlr8yourmac.com, to a member, which addresses failure of deep sleep with some users that updated and added new FireWire and USB cards.
Also, here is Apple doc.#305262 about PCI cards and sleep.
After few days of messing around I found out that I had desktop background (wallpaper) set to change every 1 minute.
After unchecking "Change picture..." in system preferences (under Desktop/Screen saver), my powerbook went to sleep all by itself.
One noticed this; "I have a Canon printer(shared) and my imac would not sleep. I opened up printer/fax in system prefs and noticed it said the printer was in use when it was off. Opened up the printer queue and noticed about 7 pending documents. Deleted them all and now it sleeps.
Check the printer queue!"
Good Luck!  DALE

Does Airplay mirroring only work with Apple TV, or can I use it with my mac mini?

I already have a Mac Mini (2011 model) hooked up to my TV via HDMI, an AppleTV 2 seem redundant except for the fact it support Airplay Mirroring....is there anyway to use the Mac Mini to mirror my iPad 2?

Hey There
This would be a great enhancement. I also have a mac Mini hooked up , as i guess do many people, seems wrong to have to spend another £100 to achieve a WiFi solution.
This functionalty really would make the Mac Mini with iPad a perfect media center solution.
Ane we could control watching BBC iPlayer from the sofa.

Airplay only works with Photos App after upgrade to latest ios 6.1.3

I have upgraded both my iphone4s and ipad2 to ios 6.1.3 and now I dont see the Airplay icon on the Youtube App, Jasmine App, McTube App, Safari etc.
The only place I see the Airplay icon is when browsing photos and videos using the native ios photos app.
I have tried rebooting my iDevices, restarted my xbmc server, but to no affect. Why does it only show up in the native photos App??
Please help
Thanks

Still works fine for me, have you restarted your Apple TV and wifi router?

AIRPLAY not working after Apple tv 6.0.2 update!!!

After the apple tv 6.0.2 update airplay isn't working properly. I have reset and restarted my apple tv, reset the wireless network and it keeps disconnecting. Homesharing will not connect even after logging in and signing out on iTunes. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Frustrated!!!

Ive checked the network and it's working fine.
You are getting disconnected so clearly it is not. Lets try to work in reality here. The fact that you are connected does not count as checking your network. The fact that there is a conneciton does not tell you anything about the quality of that connection. Even more so with WiFi since there are so many more things that can cause problems with it. And since AirPlay is in real time and not cached it has no tolerance for any interference or dropped packets.
I see a number of post about this same issue
Yes, several posts on the forum.... out of a user base in the tens of millions. If there where really an issue with the update (which went out weeks ago) the forum would be flooded. Every time there is an update released a handful of people have some problem that occurs not long after and they all sure it must be the update even though 99% of the user base is not having the same issue.
so I guess everyone is having Wifi and connection issues then.
Most of them yes. 70% of the posts are WiFi related issues. As I already explained streaming video rarely works well over WiFi. Even more so for HD video, and even more so still for AirPlay which is hyper sensitive to any hiccups at all. WiFi makes this a very failure prone way to use ATV and as such most of the posts are related WiFi.
I dont think so !!!!
Since you don't think losing your device connections is a network problem clearly thinking is not your strong suit.

Video Phone only works when specific user initiates connection

Hi,
I have an application based on the Cirrus Video phone demo as presented here:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/cirrus/samples/
In general, this works fine, but for one specific user with whom I test, I have the following issue:
When I initate the call, we are paired together by Cirrus, but his video/audio does not transmit to me. He can however see and hear me just fine.
When he initaites the call, everything works fine.
I'm concerned that this is an issue re. NAT/Firewall setup on standard home broadband connections, in that UDP is allowed through his firewall when the firewall sees that the connection has been initiated by him.
I'm a web developer, rather than a Flash developer, and I'm just looking for a few leads so that I can investigate this.
G

My application works as follows:
User1 (me) askes User2 (friend) if they would like to speak via AJAX text chat system
When User2 confirms that they would like to do this:
User1 browser loads Flash app
Flash app connects and obtains session key from cirrus
Flash app writes that session key to database
User2 browser loads Flash app
Flash app checks DB to see if session key exists
If not, it waits, and check again in 10 secs
When session key is finally found, Flash app connects to cirrus
Cirrus now exchanges network data between clients, and P2P connection is established
Call is placed from User2 to User1
User1 answers
Video and audio transmission starts from User1, and is received by User2
No Video and audio transmission is received by User1 from User2 (text chat over Cirrus is however possible)
All of this works in the majority of cases with other users, and when the roles are reversed, it also works.
The only time it doesn't work, it when I try to call my friend.
The behaviour described above can be seen in both my app, and the sample provided by Adobe at:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/cirrus/samples/
I hear what you are saying about RTMFP, but it really doesn't look like a coding problem, unless that problem also exists in the Adobe demo.

Satellite C660-115 WLan connection only works when power cable is connected

Hello,
I bought a satelite C660-115 a few weeks ago. I would like to surf the internet anywhere in my home without any wires/cables.
From the first day I had this problem: when I disconnect the _power_ cable, the wireless connection will stop working.
The webpage on my screen will still be there, but loading a new page is a problem.
Sometimes it helps to reload (pressing F5), sometimes not. It always helps to "repair the ip-adress", but not for long.
The only solution is to atach the power cable, regardless of how much power the battery still has.
When I do so,there is no problem whith the connection at all.
I went back to the shop where I bought it, they connected to their own wireless network and they had the same problem after a few minutes. In the shop too attaching the power cable solved the problem.
So the problem must be in my lap top, not in my network (modem or so).
Does this all sound familliar and if so, how can I fix it?
I hope my English is understandable, I live in Holland.
Thanx in advance!

Here the solution:

USB ports only work when the device is connected at start up

I have a dv5-1110em laptop which I have upgraded to Windows 7.
If i connect a USB device before I start the machine then it works fine as long as I do not unplug it.
If I unplug a device and then need to use it again I have to restart the laptop.
If there are no devices plugged in at start then the ports will not work with any device.
I have installed the new BIOS.
I have uninstalled the USB ports and then re installed them.
I have been searching for an answer to this for months and found nothing that solves my problem.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated..
Thanks

I'm having the same problem. Installed windows 7 professional over windows 7 home preminu.
Only see USB device if it's plugged in at startup.

After an iPad update yesterday I sent a video and it is not viewable just black screen but sound is there. I sent it to my windows 7 laptop and there it is not viewable at all the start button appears crossed through.only works on apple PC

After yesterday's update sent a personal video it was not not viewable , i was told only black screen but audio, will play on apple pc but not windows.
On my own windows operated laptop when l open the video the start button is crossed through
Is there something l need to do? I can view the videos fine on my iPad ?

'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

IMessage only works with Apple ID...?

My iMessage says it's waiting for activation and will only let me use my Apple ID for sending or receiving iMessage. If I try to turn off my email and have iMessage sent and received from my phone number, the phone won't allow me to do so. It says the email cannot be deleted or turned off, and I'll get a popup message saying "iMessage Activation: An error occurred during activation. Try again." Is anyone else having this problem? Is this a common problem that we can expect to be fixed in the supposed iOS 7.0.3 upgrade?
