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.

  • Safari won't work with CNN Pipeline and other sites all of a sudden?

    Safari won't work with CNN Pipeline and other sites all of a sudden? A few weeks ago Safari was working OK but now I often have to use Firefox to visit certain webpages.

    Is there a quick fix?

    Thanks.

    Hi QuickTimeKirk,
    I have WMP version 9, as well. I do not use F4M, for many users f4mac is what helps.
    I find some items work while others do not. I always get an alert about the wmp , which version it is, takes very long to load, I find it is not consistant with Safari, as seems the poster of this topic has found.

    though 41 errors is not as poor as some, Firefox handles the site better than Safari, imo.
    Some sites just work better with Firefox or an other browser.

  • Does airplay mirror only work with the ipad2 and not ipad1

    does airplay mirror only work with the ipad2 and not ipad1

    But can it still stream video wirelessly?
    For example, with the Digital AV Adapter I can watch video on my TV, but obviously it's wired.
    I'd like a wireless option.

    Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply. 
    I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago.  I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam.  I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase. 
    Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions.  Could you please explain? 
    I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items. 

  • Ipod Classic 80gb won´t work with apple universal dock and remote

    I own 2 ipods a 5th generation 60gb and an ipod classic 60gb. I've just bought an apple universal dock with remote and the original apple component and composite AV cables. I connected the universal dock to my TV via the composite cable, with my ipod 5th gen I can watch videos on the TV and control the ipod with the apple remote but when I connect my ipod classic to the universal dock it will charge but I can´t get any video out or control the ipod with the remote. It's as if the ipod classic doesn't recognize the universal dock and it keeps showing the connect the video accessory screen, even when i tried using the apple component AV cable. I dont think the problem is with the universal dock because it works fine with my Ipod video 60gb, but with my Ipod Classic 80gb the remote control and video out won't work at all, i can´t even control the playback of audio playlists. Does anyone know why that is happenning? Please help me!

    I have the Classic 80gb also...same probem. I retuned the Apple Universal Dock and purchased one that was half the price. Pluged it in and it works perfectly! So my advice would be to save some money and get products that work.

  • 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.

  • Get Airtunes to work with Apple TV and Mountain Lion

    Hi there,
    I know there are tons of people complaining that the new Airplay Mirroring doesn't work with their later than mid 2011 Mac running Mountain Lion.  My complaint is I just want to be able to use my apple TV with my Itunes library.  After my upgrade my apple TV2 can't find my Itunes library.  I don't care about the mirroring feature, that's why I bought an AppleTV, but without access to the library I can't play anything.  Is there any way to get just Airtunes to work?  Are there any setup tricks I could do to make it work?  On the ipad and the iphone I see the option to pair my devices with a 4 digit code in itunes but the apple TV only works through my Apple ID.  this seems to make my ipad and iphone not work. 
    I have a 2010 iMac and a AppleTV2.  I just want to be able to browse my library on my itunes.  Sometimes it will work for short period of time after several resets on both machines but it never lasts. 
    Some one please help!

    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!

  • My hard drive crashed on my apple computer recently. I have a new one, but it won't sync with apple tv1, and I want to retrieve my photos from teh appletv1. It appears in devices now, but won't let me go any further with it. Help

    The hard drive crashed on my apple computer and I lost a lot of photos. I want to recover them from my apple tv1, but the computer won't seem to pair up with the apple tv. The Apple tv does appear in devices, but it won't let me go any further. The 'apply' button is a pale grey colour and you can't click on it. Help!!

    there is no facility to recover your photos from the appletv.
    the only way to link the appletv to your new "system" is to remove the existing itunes link and then link it to the new itunes - this will delete all content from the appletv though.

  • Airplay won't work with airport express

    I can't get Airplay to work with my airport express since moving to Lion.  The AE shows up on the network, I can select it from either iTunes or my iPhone at the Airplay tab, but neither will connect to it.  Ideas?
    Have reset the AE, reinstalled iTunes, etc.

    another possibility is that you could be suffering from wireless interference.
    perhaps one of your neighbor's wireless networks is interfering with yours. download iStumbler and note the channels other networks in the vicinity are broadcasting on.
    change the channel your network is using as far away as possible from those.

  • Key binding won't work with alt-up and alt-left arrow combined

    I was playing with key binding trying to create a small app where a timer is started with the press of an alt-arrow key and stopped when the key is released. The timers append Strings to a JTextArea telling which alt-arrow key is currently pressed.
    This program works, and in fact if you press a combination of any two keys, both timers will work simultaneously, that is unless you press both up arrow and left arrow together. Can anyone see a bug in the program that explains why it won't work for these two particular keys when combined? Thanks in advance, Pete

  • HT1555 Two remotes - Both still work with Apple TV and MBP despite pairing

    I have a MBP (early 2011 13") and Apple TV. Therefore, I paired one remote with my MBP and the other remote with Apple TV. Both parings have been successfull (chain icon) but still both remotes can be used on both devices. How can I resolve this issue? (and no, I don't want to disable the IR on my MBP)
    Is it possible that the two remotes have by coincidence the same ID?

    I am sure that I have done that correctly. Apple TV and MBP states that a remote has been paired, but still both work on both devices. Is it possible that both remotes have the same ID (by coincidence)?

  • ITunes 11 won't sync with my iPhone and iPad, but will with my iPod!

    Why won't my iPhone 4S and iPad 2 sync with iTunes 11? My iPod Classic syncs fine, but iTunes 11 does not even recognize my iPhone 4S and iPad 2. Both are visible in My Computer so I know it's not a USB or connection problem. 

    Just guessing here as I don't have an Iphone or Ipad.
    Try to enable Show Side Bar (Menu Bar - View - Click Show Side Bar) (Keyboard Short Cut Ctrl + S)
    Can you see them now ?
    Edit: // Some suggestions you can try from other discussions
    verified that all the itunes services are running
    apple mobile device, bonjour service &  ipod service?
    Finally tried to update driver and it said I had the latest driver for Windows 7. I then disabled it, hard reset on iPad (original iPad) and when it was back on it installed the driver on my computer. Enabled driver and GLORY! It finally works normal.

  • FaceTime is not working with Apple ID on iPad.

    I have reset the Apple ID and changed the password.  Apple ID will NOT verify for either Messages or Face Time yet works to log in to all other services; apps, iCloud, etc.

    I had the same problem after the update. I did a hard reset by holding down the off button and the home button at the same time and when the iPad rebooted, it was working again. I hope it works for you too.
