Apple TV Disconnects When I Lock My Ipad

Up until today I have had no problems. I could stream an mp4 using safari and airplay to apple tv, then push the lock button or flap the cover over and it would carry on playing on the tv. Now it stops the stream and I have to leave my ipad screen on. Why is this? I also used to be able to stream an mp4 using safari and then navigate away from safari and play a game and the mp4 would carry on on airplay to the tv, now this doesnt work either.

odd what you call lock button I call on off button because when one click it it suspend the ios device it does not just turn off the display or lock it
all my ios device have always stopped doing what they were doing when I pressed the off button

Apple TV disconnects when streaming video from iMac.

I am using my Apple TV to stream video from my iMac to my TV using AirPlay display. Every 5 minutes or so, it disconnects. The video freezes on the TV but will continue playing on the iMac. Then after a few seconds it disconnects completely and the apple TV will return to the menu screen and I then have to reconnect. I also have noticed that it only disconnects when streaming video. I'm able to use the Airplay to display what's on my computer screen and it works fine without disconnecting. I have no issues with the connectivity of my internet, there is always a full signal. I've been searching for answers on this and have found similar issues have happened to other users but none of the suggestions have worked so far.
Very frustrated... please help!

What is described above is a network issue. Troubleshoot the network.

WiFi disconnected when screen locked on Lumia 920

Hello,
As far as I could see, this issue is being discussed on some other issues.
My issue is simple: my WiFi disconnects when my screen locks (depending on the timing I set..3 minutes, 15 minutes, etc.). Is it normal? If not, how can it be solved?
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It is normal for your phone at the moment. However, Microsoft will be releasing an update soon which includes a change to this, so you won't have too long to wait.

HT201343 Apple TV disconnects when mirroring

i have an early 2011 macbook pro running Mountain Lion. When trying to watch videos on AppleTV via airplay mirroring, it keeps randomly dropping the connection. The video continues to play on the laptop, but not the ATV. must restart ATV to reconnect. Any suggestions?

Hi ky jkh,
not sure if this help, but please try to go into your router and disable "WMM" option. It's usually under QoS or Wireless settings. I had somewhat similar issue (AppleTV disconnected from iPad2): https://discussions.apple.com/message/19240966#19240966
hope this helps

When I bought my ipad i set it up using an itunes account name that my sons and I shared for music. Now I want to use my own appleid on the purchases for my ipad. I know my apple id and my password but dont know how to switch it on the ipad itself

When I bought my ipad I used my family apple id that allowed us to share the itunes and pay with one card. (mine). now my sone's apple id is connected to my ipad and I cannot change the password, nor purchase a book. I have reset my password and have my own apple id. How do I link it on the ipiad with the itunes etc? I am willing to "lose" the music I have purchased on my itunes account if that is what must happen. I believe that is why I did it in the first place but now I regret that choice.

Settings>Store (or iTunes & App Stores if you are running iOS6)>Apple ID. Tap your son's ID and sign out. Sign in with your ID and password.
You shouldn't lose the music, but if you try to update any apps that you bought with the family ID, you will have to use that password that is linked with that ID in order to update.
Avoid downloading past purchased content with the old ID if you can since you will associate the iPad with the old ID for 90 days and you will lock yourself out of your own, new ID for that period of time. Read more about associated devices in iTunes here.

My iPad frequently locks up, even after updating to iOS 7.1. When it locks up it's nonresponsive to the home button and the only remedy is to force a shut down and reboot. Help!

Is it normal wifi disconnect when iPhone 5 iOS 6.0.1 is locked or in Sleep mode?

is it normal wifi disconnect when iPhone 5 iOS 6.0.1 is locked or in Sleep mode? i wondering if this normal or not, coz my iPhone 5 disconnect when my phone is locked or in sleep mode, any suggestion or comments are highly appreciated!

It sounds like to me that Apple has worked out a way that the data service providers can increase your usage of the cellular network to increase your bill which undoubtably has resulted in kickbacks. It is pretty crafty and I'm sure most people won't even notice. What really blows my mind is that they have people saying that it is to save battery life. I can't imagine that the ammount of suppossedly saved battery life is even messurable. Reeks of a scam to me.

Wifi disconnect when sleep or locked! useless iPhone!

apple is very good product, but if they are like this and told us that wifi disconnect when on sleep mode or even locked, that is totally ******* useless! im a diehard fans of apple, but if this like this tmie to switch to other smart phone, apple is *****!

When I am trying to send photos or documents to my ipad from my computer, does my computer say the device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected when my computer shows it is iocnnected and working fine?

Why do I get the message that the device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected when my computer shows it is connected and functioning ok ?
I was trying to send either photos or documents to my ipad via a usb cable conncted between my ipad and the HP computer.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reboot the computer
- Try another cable and USB port
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Dear Leslie J.,
Your Apple ID was used to sign in to iCloud and iMessage on an iPad mini named “Leslie Joye's iPad”.
If you have not recently set up an iPad with your Apple ID, then you should change your Apple ID password. Learn more.

1. It is never a good idea to include personal info like your email address or Apple ID in a post on an open forum.
2. The email you received DOES NOT say your Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this iPad. The email informs you that your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad. Fortunately the iPad is yours. The message confirms that. If your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad that was not yours your would then know to change your password. Since the iPad is yours you do not need to change your password.
Is your iPad working?

I can not get my iPad to mirror on Apple TV. When I toggle the tv screen goes black and the iPad freezes. Have updated the iOS to latest settings and also updated the settings on the Apple TV

Welcome to the Apple Community.
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.

I have two devices (Iphone and Ipad) on the same Apple ID. When I go to Icloud and click at the "find Iphone" I see only one of my devices. How can I do to see both of them?

Obvious question, but have you got 'Find My iPhone' set on both devices? Settings>iCloud>Find My iPhone.

My iphone was stolen, I used find my iphone app, and found that it was offline, however when tried locking mode option, I pressed remove device by mistake. Is there any way I can restore the iphone to my icloud/ apple Id again? No manual backup on laptop

The phone will automatically re-appear when it connects to the Internet. However, don't get your hopes up, as thieves know this & will make sure your phone never re-connects so you can locate it.

How can I lock out my iCloud? Because of forget my old password and I have do a new Apple ID but when wan to log out my iCloud it call me to logout find my iphone but already forget the password . Have any solution ?

How can I lock out my iCloud?
Because of forget my old password I have create a new Apple ID
But when I wan to log out my iCloud,it call me to logout Find My iPhone.
I had already forget the password that why I create a new Apple ID.
Have any solution for problem like this ?

Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son.
