Airplay Stops

AirPlay music stops suddenly, have to restart Airport Express
Any ideas?

Since you have all three 802.11n AirPort Express Base Stations (AXn) connected back to the Time Capsule (TC) by Ethernet, you would want them all to be configured for a roaming network ... which I assume is the way you have them configured.
Just to be double-sure, the following would be the proper way to configure this type of network:
Roaming Network Setup
Ref: See page 42 of the Apple AirPort Networks guide.
Setup the AirPort connected to the Internet to "Share a public IP address." Internet > Internet Connection > Connection Sharing: Share a public IP address
Setup the remaining AirPorts, as bridges. Internet > Internet Connection > Connection Sharing: Off (Bridge Mode) For each AEBSn in the roaming network:
For each base station:
Connect to the same subnet of the Ethernet network.
Provide a unique Base Station Name.
The Network Name (SSID) should be identical.
If using security, use the same security type (WEP, WPA, etc.) and password. Note: It is highly recommended that you use WPA2 Personal for best bandwidth performance.
Make sure that the channel is set at least three channels apart from the next base station to prevent Wi-Fi interference.
Is this how you have your base stations configured?

Airplay stops when YouTube app is sent to background - every second video

When I send a YouTube video to Apple tv and then switch to another app all is ok. However when I switch back to YouTube and start to Airplay another video and switch to another app again it stops Airplay streaming on Apple TV.
I have to bring YouTube to front, click airplay icon, select Apple TV again and press play. Then I can switch to another app and Airplay continues. Then next video and Airplay stops again.
So in simple words every second video plays ok and every second does not.
Is it a bug or is it just me?
I have iPhone 3GS.

okay spoke a little too soon - deactivate is fired off on any
time the app loses focus, not necessarily when it stops playing. Is
there an event which signals right before the player is going to be
paused? Thanks!

Airplay stopping when idevice slumbers (with auto-lock on)

Hi all,
I've noticed that airplay stops working when my idevice (iphone or ipad) goes to slumber with auto-lock on.
I'm not sure if it's an auto-lock issue or something that was introduced with IOS6.
Since the auto-lock is a requirement for my mailserver turning that of isn't an option. I would really like for this to go away :-)
Anyone else noticed this? any solutions available?
Thanks!

Hold down your Ctrl key when using the Move tool or the Crop tool, and you can precisely move and crop without the automatic jumping to the edge.

In the Options Bar for the Move tool, de-select the "Auto Select Layer" option.

Airplay stopped working on ipad3

Hi airplay previously worked fine on my ipad 3 - streamed to my apple tv which is plugged in to the router.
Suddenly it has stopped working - I open airplay on the ipad, select apple tv , it pauses for a while then flicks back to ipad selected.
I've seen a post that says I shoud give different names to the 2.4 and 5 ghz ssids of my router - I'm looking into that, but it is not easy (isp modded the router and doesn't distribute any technical details / manual - good game!). Any other suggestions?
Thanks
Rebooting the router fixed this problem.

AirPlay stops working when iPad screen blanks

I found that after upgrading my iPad 2 to iOS 5 and Apple TV to iOS 4.4 AirPlay video no longer continues in the background. When I move away from the iPad 2 app that is steaming to the TV or the iPad 2 locks itself (screen blanks), the Apple TV stops playing the video. This worked fine before the iOS updates.

I have exactly the same issue with iPad2/OS 5.0.1 and Apple TV 2/OS 4.4.3(3323), it happens with all video applications and browsers in both cases, e.g. auto locking or swithing to another application.
The issue doesn't happen before I upgrade to iOS 5, this really *****, it makes the Airplay completely useless!
I can't believe this stupid bug doesn't be found by the QA tests, they're making cool features like Airplay Mirror, but they made Airplay unable to use at the same time.
I wish it could be fixed in 5.0.1 update but "NO", so now I would have to wait for 5.0.2. I really hope somebody in Apple's engineering team is looking at this forum and post, since this is the first time I'm posting here and I don't hope it unresponded...

ATV3 Airplay stopped working

I recently set up my Apple TV 3 in my college dorm, which uses a WPA2 Enterprise network, to airplay from my 2011 MBP on 10.8.2. It was working fine (Airplay, mirroring, home sharing), then all of a sudden Airplay and Mirroring stopped working. The icon still appears in the status bar of os x and iTunes, but whenever I select Apple TV as my audio device in preferences, it hangs for a while and then reverts back to internal speakers. If I try to start mirroring, it changes my screen res but nothing displays on my TV, then after about 30 seconds it reverts back. If I try selecting Apple TV within iTunes, It hangs on 'Connecting to "Apple TV"' for a while, then reverts back to internal speakers.
I've tried restarting both my computer and ATV multiple times, I've done a factory restore of my ATV3, turned off bluetooth on my MBP and ATV, disabled IPv6 on my MBP. No luck so far.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

I should also point out that home sharing is still working, as are all other apple tv apps (youtube, nba etc)

Airplay STOPS after printing on G Express

I just installed a Samsung ML-2010 to a G based Airport Express in WDS bridge mode. For some reason, the native ML-2010 print drivers do not work, but the ML-1630 driver does work. If I am playing audio through the Airport Express and decide to print, once the print data reaches the express, the audio stops and does not return until I either power cycle the Express or go into Airport Utility and disable Airplay, wait for a reboot, then re enable Airplay, and wait another reboot. If I print from a Windows PC using the ML-1630 driver through Bonjour, the audio does NOT stop when printing, only on the Mac (iBook G4 10.5.8) is it failing. I tried 2 Airport Express units and both fail the same.
I can only think it is the Mac print driver, but wanted to see if anyone else had a similar experience.
Thanks in advance

Hi dmule, I just replied to another topic here about this, I know you were involved in it but just in case you don't get notified I thought I should cross-link it here.

ITunes 11 airplay stops in middle of songs, why?

We have iTunes 11 on a MacBook Air with Lion (10.7.5, all current updates). Occasionally, in the middle of a song playing over Airplay, iTunes stops streaming the song. As best we can tell it appears to be random. If we go back to a song that it previously stopped on, but it doesn't stop again. Thought it may be Energy Savings settings, but it's set for 3 hours before sleeping, and 2 hours to turn off screen. Now "Put the had disk to sleep..." is set, and perhaps this is it. But according to my wife, this never happened under iTunes 10.x, it has just started with iTunes 11.
I'll try the "hard disk sleep" setting and report back, but any other ideas?

I am having the same problem, with a similar model of iMac (early 2007). I play my music through my sound system using my Apple TV 2 and airplay. It has worked perfectly until I updated the Apple TV, Mountain Lion, and thus, iTunes, on Nov. 30th. Now, the music just stops after 30-45 minutes, in mid-song, just as Fox8 described. So far, I have: rebooted the computer, reset the Apple TV to factory settings, rebooted the Apple Extreme router, restored the computer to 2:00am on Nov. 30th (itunes would not run at all, saying that the music library was created with a newer version), re-updated Mountain Lion and itunes... everything I can think of. Still, the music stops. I have eliminated the Apple TV (streams Netflix and iphoto just fine), and the router (ditto) The only thing that leaves is either a Mountain Lion problem or an itunes problem. I hope Apple gets this resolved; if anyone has found a solution, please post it here.
I am going to try to stream via Airport Express and see if that works, using an iDevice as a remote. Apple delayed the release of itunes 11 so it would be right, but it appears it's not quite there. We need a 11.01 patch. Quickly, please. Or at least a way to downgrade to the version that did indeed "just work."

Airplay stops working at backround. new ios problem??

Hi,
i have ipad 2...
i Updated my ipad's ios and i found out that when im streaming video from youtube or videostream to TV.. i cant multitask enymore.. or the airplay video will stop playing. is this a new ios bug or FEATURE? and is there coming a fix for this or...? for me this is a BIIIG problem...

I powered Apple TV down, then plugged it back in. That brought back my ability to connect with AirPlay.
It's a hassle, but seems to be an Apple TV issue.
I think.

Airplay stops working after 30 mins

Airplay mirroring works fine for about 30 mins then stops, not sure what the problem is.

Are you using the Recording feature? If so, turn that off and try again, Mine was crapping out on the recording and once I turned that off it worked fine. I have 3 other WVC80N cams that work fine recording, but this one, just won't play nice when I have recording on! wierd!

Airplay stopped working with Denon/Marantz receiver

Has anyone a working Airplay (audio) setup with OS 10.8/10.9, iTunes 10/11 and any Denon/Marantz AV receiver with native Airplay support?
Mine worked perfectly, but stopped working about a year ago under OS 10.7 oder 10.8 and some iTunes 10 version - and no OS / iTunes / firmware update has restored it since then.
My setup
Airport Extreme as router - the network is wired (gigabit switch), wireless only for wireless devices such as iPhone
Mac Pro (2008), OS 10.9, iTunes 11.1.3
2x Apple TVs 3rd gen
Denon 3312 AV receiver
Marantz 5006 AV receiver
iPhone 5s
All devices have the latest software/firmware.
I used to use iTunes Airplay music streaming to my AV receivers, which support Airplay natively - I selected the receivers for this feature and switched from Onkyo receivers.
Airplay music streaming from iTunes to the receivers worked perfectly, until it suddenly stopped working sometime a year ago - which means, the audio stream will simply stop playing after a few minutes, and the receiver needs a reset to work again als Airplay speaker.
It curiously still worked wirelessly from iOS devices - which was a workaround, but also stopped working in the beforementioned manner - I guess since iOS 7.
On the same network Airplay audio streaming to the Apple TVs works without a problem.
It seems to me that Apple has something changed in the AirPlay protocol whichs breaks compatibility with (licensed) 3rd party Airplay audio devices.
According to some forum articles there was a problem with IPv6 and Airplay streaming and the advice was given to deactivate IPv6 in network settings (which was possible via GUI in OS 10.6 but requires a terminal command in OS 10.7 upwards) - this helped initially with iTunes 10, but doesn't make a difference in iTunes 11.
Since the problem exists for over a year my hopes at Apple fixing it are gone...
It's really frustrating, since it used to work wonderfully - it's the exact opposite of the Apple experience: it simply does not work (anymore).
Has anyone further insight?

Never mind. I learned that in the Control Center if you tap Airplay and then scroll down, the Mirroring button is available. Once I turned Mirroring on it worked. Hey Apple, how about making the Mirroring button visible without hunting for it? Maybe in the next release? Otherwise, loving my Apple products!

Airplay stops working after a call

I am listening to music using AirPlay from my iPhone 5, iOS7.02, thru an AirPort express latest generation.
If I receive a call, music stops (expected). After finishing the call, there is no sound from the AirPort Express. Music should come back out of my APE.
The iPhone shows the correct connection and music playing back.
The only solution I have found is to disable WiFi and close the Music app in the iPhone. Then re-enable WiFi, open music and it starts working again.
I checked the software version of APE in it is the latest.
Any ideas?

Airplay stops after 2 seconds (denon RCD-N7)

When I start playing music from iTunes using Airplay and a Denon RCD-N7 receiver the sound stops after just 2 seconds, iTunes contimues playing on the computer screen. I use windows 7, and the latest iTunes.

Scott, I have the exact same problem. This only started with the last Apple TV update for me. My platform is Mountain Lion (10.8.2) and have the latest itunes installed also (11.0.1).
I'm still currently trialling this issue as it has only just happened. As you said the music stops at 13 seconds, however movies are unaffected.
I'm yet to try other devices (iPad and iPhone 5) but will keep you posted.
I solved this issue briefly by resetting the Apple TV but it started again not long after.
Very annoying !!

AirPlay stop audio streaming closing iPad control app

Just bought AirPort Express.
Wifi connected to my NAS, used to stream music to my old stereo that is in another room using analogic audio out.
Opening iPad control app I can select and play music, but when I close the app (not leaving in background, closing down or shutting down iPad) the audio stream stop.
In the control app (DS Audio from Synology) I also can't select AirPort Express as player in settings, only iPad is listed. I can correctly select AirPort for AirPlay.
NAS firewall is configured to allow AirPlay, AirPort firmware is latest release, I use iPad 2 with iOS 6.01.
Any suggestion?

also i want to specify something............if am using loopback address,the sender and receiver(in this typical code,capture and receive files) ought to have diff. ports( i suppose as their ips are already same)
or am i wrong???
i have given same ports.......i had tried once with diff. ports........miraculously perhaps it worked (the sound was echoed through my headphone),....but next time when i tried i failed......and still failing........any suggestions please waiting eagerly
