Airplay symbol stopped showing on iOS5 devices

Airplay symbol used to show on iPad2 and iPhone4S for use with Apple TV(2). Now it just stopped showing up.
I tried reset of ATV. All devices are on the same wireless network. All devices are logged into the same iTunes account.
Any suggestions?

Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first.

HT204291 Help! I cannot see the Airplay symbol on any of my devices anymore! I have tried following all guides and troubleshooting, but to no avail. Just cannot use the AppleTV with any of my devices.

Help! I cannot see the Airplay symbol on any of my devices anymore! I have tried following all guides and troubleshooting, but to no avail. Just cannot use the AppleTV with any of my devices.

Thanks for the link. It didn't work at first on any of the devices but then I decided to enter a manual DNS instead of an automatic configuration. Then followed the steps again from your link and it worked.
It is not stable though as I need to reset the device for it to see the airplay. But when it is connected it stays connected for 30 minutes approx.
Any other suggestions to keep it stable would be fantastic but at least in the meantime I have a workaround.
Thanks

What does it mean when a lost phone stops showing up on device list on find iPhone app?

What does it mean when a lost iPhone stops showing up in device list on find iPhone app?

That means:
The battery is dead
The phone has been turned off
The phone is no longer connected to the cellular network or a WiFi network
The Find my iPhone service has been turned off
The phone has been wiped.
The bottom line is, it means you're probably never going to be able to locate it unless you can physically find it.

Can't see the airplay symbol on any of my devices even though I have set up my new Apple TV correctly

Using my iPad that I bought last month, new Apple TV, I have set up Apple TV and in settings turned AirPlay on. Going back to my iPad the AirPlay symbol is no where to be found, it is not at the bottom of the screen when I press the home button twice and swipe twice, and neither is it displayed if I select video or music. Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Thanks, I read several other threads and all it took was to turn off the router and turn it back on again, 'simples'.
Thanks

I recently purchased Apple TV and it worked right away with my three ipd minis my iPhone 5 and ipad . The next day I cannot get the airplay icon to show up on any thing? Any ideas

I recently purchased Apple TV and the first day it worked great. The second day I can no longer get the airplay symbol on any of my devices?

Airplay doesn't show up in control center on any of your devices?
Have you tried restarting the devices by holding down the home and power button for about ten seconds. I would also try restarting your router/modem.

Can't get the airplay symbol...

I brought the Apple TV device at the weekend and is great... But when in some apps like channel 4 and want to watch catch up like I did on my phone, I don't get the the airplay symbol to stream through the device, has anyone else had this problem ?? Or better still know of a simple solution ?? Many thanks

go into an app where the AirPlay symbol DOES show up... OR scroll up from bottom and bring up the 'sheet' with quicka access to settings.... choose AirPlay and Screen Mirroring... that way the entire screen of phone is shown, not just video.. that way everything will show no matter what...

Phone will not show up under devices

Your iPhone doesn't have to "show up" on Your Mac. Just follow this instructions (exactly) for you to be able to sync local files from your desktop to your iPhone. Note: This feature is for Premium users only.Using the desktop app, add local music files you want to sync to a playlist.Log into Spotify on your iPhone using the same WiFi network as your desktop.Tap the menu button ().Tap Your Music.
Tap Playlists.
Tap Local Files, or the playlist containing local files from your computer.Select the playlist containing the local music files and press the Available Offline switch at the top.
A green arrow will appear next to the tracks when syncing is complete.

I set up my Apple TV without problem and it worked with my iPad 2. Following a software update on the Apple TV I no longer get the AirPlay symbol on any device. IPad 2, IPhone 4s or iPod Touch.

I Set up my Apple TV and it worked well with my iPad 2. Following an update of my Apple TV software none of my devices now show the AirPlay symboL. This includes an iPhone 4S and iPod Touch 4th gen,. Any ideas?

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.

HT201335 Apple TV stopped showing up on AirPlay, and Apple want to charge me $19.00 +tax to ask a question.

After I updated AppleTV to 5.2 and iOS to 5.1.1 on my iPad, Apple TV stopped showing up on AirPlay. I searched for an answer on the Internet with no luck and I asked support through Apple's website. I was able to talked to someone on the phone from Apple but he said I have to pay $19 + tax. He said I will find answer on Apple support page, but I still don't have any answer. Please help me!!

Turn off My PhotoStream in iCloud on both the iPad and the Mac. PhotoStream is what shares your photos (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library Beta, in which case, all photos uploaded are accessible from all devices signed onto the same Apple/iCloud ID).

How do i stop automatic downloads of tv shows from other devices

If i buy or download a tv show on another device such as apple tv or an ipad, how do i stop it from downloading automatically when i open up itunes in my IMAC?

There is no way to designate one specific purchased item to not auto-download and remain in the cloud, but you can specify certain kinds of purchased items like videos, music, books, etc.
In iTunes > Preferences > Store Preferences on your computer, make sure to uncheck "Always check for available downloads" and "Automatically download pre-orders".
Initiate the purchase on a device other your computer. The simplest way would be to initiate the purchase on a Apple TV, as those purchases will now remain in the cloud and not auto-download to iTunes on your computer.

[SOLVED]Thunar stops showing removable devices

Hi all,
Today, I noticed that thunar has stopped showing me my removable devices. I don't know when this issue really happened really but all I know is that, last weekend when I inserted my mp3 device, Thunar showed it and I had an icon on my desktop. I hadn't modify any configuration files, just made all upgrades.
Here are related packages installed here :
extra/gvfs 1.10.1-1
core/dbus-core 1.4.16-1
extra/dbus 1.4.16-1
extra/dbus-glib 0.98-1
extra/thunar 1.2.3-2
extra/thunar-volman 0.6.0-2
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance
Tovo R.

I have a macbookpro. when I connect any camera to the mac it does not show as a device. How do I load my pictures to either iPhoto or Aperture? It worked before but just stopped working. Any suggestions?

I have a macbookpro. I use Aperture and Iphoto. When I connect any camera to the Mac it does not open it as a device in Iphoto, Aperture or in Finder. It use to work but just stopped. Any sugestions?

Here is the full story. It may be long so please bear with me. I take a lot of pictures and movies. Since I have over 30,000 pictures I decided to place the Iphoto library on an external drive to save space on my internal drive since ot was getting very full. After I did that it worked fine for a while. Then one day I could not open the Iphoto library. Since I was overseas at the time I brought it to the IStudio ( not an Istore) overseas. They said to rebuild the library and they would do that for me. It took all day since I had so many pictures. When they called me and told me it was ready, I went to pick it up. They started to show me the new library. It crashed again. Not knowing how to fix this at the ISudio, they installed Aperture and imported the Iphoto library. This worked fine for a short time.When back in the states, it crashed again just like Iphoto. I took it to the IStore. They did not know why the overseas Istudio did what they did what they did and rebuilt my aperture library. Again it worked fine. Now that I am overseas again. It crashed again. However, I concluded that the reason for these crashes is becuase I have the file on an external drive that derives its power from the Mac and not by itself. When I use it and stop for a while the MAC will go to sleep and this cuases the external drive to shut down. This then causes the library to have inconsistancies. Therefore, when it happened this time I tried to repair the library and after 36 hours it would close down Aperture. Therefore I decided to rebuild the library. That did not work either. So I tried opening the Aperture library with Iphoto. That seemed like it was going to work but after importing half of the 30,000 plus pictures. I photo shut down. I then made a new aperture libary and erged the old library with it. This worked. I now have an aperture library that works. However, when I plug my camera into the MAC nothing happens. The camera does not show up in devices in either Aperture, I photo nor in Finder. The USB port and cord I use works fine becuase I can read my external hard drives fine. I checked as SIG suggested in this thread and everything is set to open aperture when the camera is connected.
I have the newest OS version 10. 7. 2 and the computer frequently updates all my programs. I have not installed any ne software lately. The problem happens both if I am on battery or plugged in. Just before I came overseas the IStore replaced the Battery. I can go back to the IStudio here overseas but the last time I was there and told them about the problem ( I did not have my computer with me) they did not impress me with their wisdom. I will be back in that city in a month and can go there if need be. Thanks for all the help so far. God bless.

I don't have a large library of music on my iPhone 4s since I've only had it since Oct 2012, but since the update to iTunes 11 in early December, my album artwork has been all messed up. Everytime I would try to add new music, it would assign the wrong album artwork to anything new coming in. And in addition to that, it would also mess up album artwork of music already on my phone. Everything looked correct in iTunes, but on my phone, not so much. After trying to unsynch, then synching again, my frustration level was at an all-time high. This problem seems to be everywhere online, but no concrete solution for everyone.
I finally came across your simple solution (at least for me because of my small inventory of music) of just deleting all the music through the settings, and then re-synching to add back my music. Now all of the album artwork is correct again. I'm almost afraid to add new music for fear the artwork will get mixed up all over again! I still think my issue is somehow connected to the iTunes 11 update because up until then I had no issues whatsoever. Anyway, thanks for an easy solution that worked for me.
