Apple TV Airplay and Mirroring

I am unable to get any of my devices to work with my second or third generation Apple TV with airplay or mirroring. I have an IPAD 1 and 4, and also a laptop with ITunes that won't connect anymore since I moved.
I have done the following:
I wasn't sure if my apple tv was broke, so I took it to the Apple retail store. He was able to mirror his IPAD and IPhone on my Apple TV, it turned out to be my remote, which now works with it.
All four devices have updated software.
All are on the same network.
All 4 devices are on the same Apple account, I only have one.
I've gotten pictures from the icloud to show up on screen.
On the IPad 4, I double clicked home and slid it to the right twice, no icon.
With my IPAD 1, I used to just play video and the airplay icon would come up, now nothing.
I've tried one suggestion, to change the language setting, nothing changed.
I have checked home sharing, everything is on.
I know I read about taking off the firewalls, but is that something that needs to be done with an IPad? I can see my lap top not working because of this, but IPads that have worked in the past.
I'm at a loss, any help would be appreciated.

You mentioned the issue started once you moved, it has something to do with how the network has been setup. Yes, things like firewall need to be looked at because something is blocking the connection.

  • HT204291 Apple TV Connect and mirror problem

    i need to connect and mirror my macbook pro , ipad , iphone to apple tv and i cant see the airplay icon on any of them .... all devices are updated and connected to the same wi-fi .... please help

    Have you checked the troubleshooting guide? If the icon is not showing up then something on the network is likely blocking it.

  • HT204291 Trying to get the iPad2 to AirPlay and mirror.

    I have the airplay icon on my iPad but when I click on the apple tv icon and try to select on for mirroring it quickly closes not giving me the option and then a second later opens back up for me to select again.  This happens over and over again...with no ability to connect.  It seems like a software issue....
    Any thoughts on how to fix?

  • Trying to connect Digital AV Adapter to watch a movie from iPad to TV.  Asking to disconnect AirPlay and mirroring.  No button to do so.  Is this a result of the new iOS update?  Anyone have a solution?

    Trying to connect my Digital AV Adapter to watch Netflex or Amazon Prime movie from IPad to TV and asking to disconnect AirPlay & mirroring.  I do not have Air Play and there is no way to do this.  Anyone have a solution?  Is this a result of the new iOS update?  Thank you.

    Try looking in the control panel by swiping up from the bottom of the screen.

  • HT204291 Airplay and mirroring not appearing on iPad Air, all devices up to date. Connected to same wifi network.

    Airplay and. Mirroring not working, all devices have airplay turned on and same network.
    Tried hard reboot of device as well.

    The reply you received did not work for me.
    If you don't mind having to re-enter your WiFi password(s) there is a much simpler single step solution that will probably work more often and more reliably than all the steps listed in your other solution.
    Simply go into your iOS device settings -> reset -> reset network settings
    the device will reboot, and you will have to manually reconnect to your WiFi network - and any other WiFi networks that you had previously stored for automatic connection.

  • Apple tv airplay and sound

    Is it possible to use airplay on TV and have the sound on our device ?

    Hi
    This is not possible.  When you activate Airplay, that ports the sounds to Apple TV, when you activate Mirroring, that then sends over Video.
    You could do this with a Mac, and change the preferences in Sound Preferences

  • Airplay and mirroring

    ciao a tutti,
    I have a problem with my Airplay mirroring option. Each time I try to use it I get this error message
    This content requires HDCP for playback. Either your HDMI cable isn't properly connected, or your HDMI connection doesnt support HDCP. Please reconnect the HDMI cable from your appl...
    I have tried to desconnect/reconnect, power off/on, and all indicated in the discussion forum, but then every time I try again, it works but ONLY for 5 seconds!
    that's terrible and very frustrating!
    any other suggestion on how to fix it?
    Thanks

    I called Apple and after some testing back and forth, finally came up with a solution that worked for me.
    I just unplugged my router for a few minutes and VOILA! It worked perfectly.
    As I could not get Airplay to show up on my Desktop and IPad2, Apple figured that it MUST be the router or the Apple TV, but since Apple TV was working fine with everything else, we tried unplugging the router for a few minutes and it worked beautifully. Hope this works for you.

  • Apple TV2, Airplay, and Hulu Plus

    My life won't change if this doesn't work, but I would at least like to know "why not" if it won't. I have updated my iPad and my Apple TV2 to the latest operating system and software. Airplay is turned on for my Apple TV.
    I started a television show on Hulu Plus, double clicked the interface button on my iPad and chose Apple TV. Nothing happened. The show continued to appear only on my iPad. What have I missed?

    Thanks, Chenks! I have learned after 30 years of going back and forth from newbie to oldbie again and again that it is always profitable to ask questions and not make assumptions. There have been many struggles with new Apple TV and I didn't want to just assume I couldn't do it. Have a great holiday season!

  • Apple TV, Airplay and caching

    Hi Everyone
    I was just wondering whether our Apple TV (3rd gen) is actually caching the content we view via Airplay from our devices/computers?
    In other words, does Apple TV store the content locally in the same way it does iTunes movies, YouTube videos, etc until it runs out of space and overwrites it with new content? And, if so, is there any way to access that content directly from the Apple TV without the device/computer still being connected via Airplay?
    So, for want of a "real life" example, I view a home video on the Apple TV via an iPhone connected with Airplay. Five minutes later we view it again, but is it now streaming the same video again from the iPhone or is the Apple TV just playing it from its local cached storage? And if it is using local storage, would there be a way of "accessing" that content without the iPhone still being connected via Airplay?
    Hope this makes sense.
    Thanks!
    Joe.

    As I understand it, the ATV just buffers (in its RAM) a small amount of the compressed content stream to smooth out any hiccups that might otherwise happen because of brief network problems, maybe up to a few seconds worth.
    There is no way of accessing this I am aware of.

  • Apple TV issue and mirroring

    Apple TV issue . . . when I first started using Mirroring between my Pro and my TV, there were no issues. Now when I play a video through mirroring, it hangs up/has a delay.  I have tried this on a number of videos and it is consistent.  Ideas?

    Have neve heard of airparrot.

  • Apple TV, Airplay, and Pandora

    I have and Apple TV and an iPad.  I receive Pandora radio on an iPad app.  In the settings on the Apple TV I have turned Airplay on and I have created a password for Airplay.    What do I do to stream the Pandora from the iPad to the Apple TV?  Where do I enter the password?  There is no place for the password on the iPad Pandora app.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The password applies to all apps, once turned on you will have to enter a password after you select the Airplay icon for the iPad on any AirPlay streaming.
    The purpose of the password is to stop others with iOS devices interrupting your viewing on the Apple TV, ideal if you have small children with iPods/iPhones.

  • HT4437 Apple TV - AirPlay and Ipod Touch

    I cant find the airplay icon on Ipod touch...where do I find it if trying to connect to Apple tv?

    You can double tap the home button, swipe (left to right) twice to bring up the volume slider and airplay icon. You will also see it within apps that are compatible. Make sure airplay is turned on in ATV settings and that both are on the same network. Ensure the iPod and ATV are is up to date.
    Note: audio is on by default but not all will be enabled for video, which is up to the developer to do.

  • Mac Mini used as Apple TV (airplay and apple remote on iphone/ipod)

    Yesterday Apple announced the new Apple TV as an iOS device. It can be controlled using the apple remote app on an iphone or ipod touch. I am using a Mac Mini using Air Mouse to control the Mini which is hooked up to my TV. Would it be possible to use the Apple Remote app for this?

    Hi Bart,
    you could use the itunes remote app to control your itunes music / videos from an iphone/ipod touch/ipad.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/remote/
    Keep in mind the itunes currently uses the remote app in a different manor to the apple tv. I don't think you could use the itunes remote app to for instance rent movies. But ones you had the movie rented you could use the remote app to trigger playing /pausing the movie. But there are some advantages, like you can get a list of videos on the computer on the iOS device.

  • Can I use my iPad (1st gen) with apple tv (2nd gen) for things such as air play and mirroring?

    Can I use my iPad 1st generation on a apple tv 2 generation for things such as AirPlay and mirroring
    I'm thinking about getting a new apple tv but it's pointless if iPad doesn't mirror or AirPlay, cheers guys.
    I understand the 2nd generation works.

    No. There are some apps that allow you to control the laptop remotely from an iPad, however, but that doesn't sound like what you need.
