Apple tv patch 6.1.1 extended desktop not working

My apple tv just upgraded to patch 6.1.1(6698.99.19) from 6.1(6698.99.19)
I have an Ipad Mini2 which I normally use to view movies on my tv.
I will select the apple tv, (with air play) and play the movie using Moliplayer on the Ipad mini2.
I was able to play from a mac pro I have in my office if I wanted to.
This used to work great as the apple remote controlled the movie and you could set the ipad mini2 down on the desktop.
After the patch, the above does not work. What happens, is the movie is not played.. however an audio icon pops up on the apple-tv
and you can hear the movie audio.
So after this patch, you can only view the movie with mirrored desktop selected after this latest update.
Both the apple mini2 and the mac pro produce the same result.
Additional steps..
I have taken the apple tv and used Itunes to re-install the software with a USB cable. Unfortunately .the same result.
I assume I have a bug I am reporting that can be logged.
Additionally. is it possible to put back the older version of the software so the apple TV will work as before?
Thanks

I have the exact same problem aswell. Did the update from 6.1 to 6.1.1 on my Apple TV 3rd gen. When using my iPhone 5 showing pictures och videos from my camera roll it works just fine over Airplay. So the problem is not the transmission. When playing a video from my Synology NAS using VLC for iOS nothing happens on my Apple TV like it did before the update! Annoying
Thanks

Airplay display issues: "extend desktop" not working properly. Secondary display continues to mirror.

Whenever I turn my airplay display on and set it to "extend desktop," my secondary display (TV) continues mirroring my mac book pro (hereinafter MBP). It doesn't fully mirror my MBP, but my secondary display registers every time I switch between my desktop 1 and my full screen apps. Moreover, When I do switch to a fullscreen app on my MBP, I get a blank (blue-ish) screen on my TV.
Any solutions!?!
Additionally, "extended desktop" for my Airplay display worked properly when Mavericks was first released.

Try this:
Click on the Apple TV Icon on the top toolbar
Then, select "Mirror Built in Display" instead of extend desktop
In the same menu under "Match Desktop size to:" select "Apple TV" (or keep it on "built in display if that works"
This solved a similar problem for me.

The App store is a problem for many and I have not seen a solution.
What is "wrong" with your Apple ID?
Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

I keep trying to set up a new Apple ID but apparently my card info is not working. how do i fix this? "contact ituunes support to complete this transaction"

If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.

Extended desktop not available on t60

On a T60, 1 year old, running Windows XP 5.10.2600 / SP2, I can get dual monitors to work but not with the extended desktop display configuration. There's a note in the help for the presentation (below). How do I know whether this function should work on my ThinkPad model, or not? And if not, is there something (an OS patch?) I can do to make it work?
Thanks!
Choose display configuration
Display same image on both devices
Extend desktop onto external device to create a larger display area (multiple monitors)
Note: If you choose the second option, the ThinkPad computer display and the external display device work as if they were a single larger display device. The desktop image is extended across both displays and you can move windows between each display or extend a single window across both displays. If you are using Windows(R) 2000, you cannot use this function. If you are using Windows XP, you can use this function on some ThinkPad computer models, but not all.

Susan,
I would ring Lenovo and tell them the problem and get them to send you out the Windows OS disc. I think they will do this.

Will this extended desktop idea work?

I'm using a Dell VGA monitor with my 933 Quicksilver PowerMac G4, and I'd like some more screen area to work with. Since I don't want to spend much, I'm thinking of picking up a used Apple cinema display with an ADC connector to use as a second monitor. Can I just connect it via my Mac's ADC port to get an extended desktop running across both displays, or is there something else I'd need as well?
I'm also wondering about a post I saw on this forum suggesting that the Nvidia Force4 MX card loses the ability to support dual displays under OS X 10.5. Since I'm running Leopard, I'd love to know if that's true!
Many thanks for your help. Here's the rundown from my system profiler:

Why is Apple remote desktop not working?

I have 4 machines in a remote office that I need to connect to using ARD 3.6. I have a VPN connection working and am able to successfully control all but one of the machines. I have checked all of the settings and have confirmed that the Mac that ARD is not working has all of the same sharing preferences as the machines that are working. All of these machines are on the same network. All of the machines are running OS 10.8.x. All machines that I am able to connect to are running 10.8.3 but the one I can't is only at 10.8.2, but that is only because I haven't been able to remote into it yet to perform the OS update. The weird thing is that I can see the unresponsive Mac (can see the IP address, the version of ARD, OS version, etc.) but I simply can't connect to it to control or observe using ARD. I am however able to use TeamViewer from a remote Windows PC.
Can someone provide some ideas as to what to check and or how to fix this? TIA.

Do you have remote login enabled?
Have you tried using the kickstart command to restart the ARD Client?
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2370?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
If it's not enabled you will need to call a user or someone at the location and have them check the box to enable remote login.
In the past the ARD client has 'stalled' forcing me to restart the agent. Another option would be to have someone restart the machine for you.
I have actually had to use ssh to uninstall and re-install the client software due to corruption or ??.
Let me know what the outcome is. I see this was from May so let me know either way.
Thanks

Is Time Capsule Apple's way of admitting AEBS Disks does not work?

The support/discussion area is full of posts from many of us who have struggled to find a working solution for our Airport Extreme Base Stations with an attached disk drive; our frustration and patience has been tested as this was a promised technology, advertised to work at sale of the AEBS. Moreover, Apple touted the wireless backup with Time Machine as Leopard got close to shipment, but pulled the technology at the last minute.
So my question to Apple is, are you now admitting that AEBS + Disk simply does not work, and if so what are you going to do for those of us to bought into a technology promise that has simply failed?
Any insight, suggestions, patches, or even communication would be a HUGE and welcome change given the misinformation we have endured to date.

Interesting points from several of you. I am sure if these are global issue I might not have encountered them due to my light usage of AEBS external disk to date. That stems of course from my heavy usage of my Linux server mentioned earlier. I am sure that I might encounter some of them if a moved all my data onto an "Air Disk."
It sounds however that the problems are more OS X / Air Disk Client issues than AEBS from this point of view. Without actively troubleshooting them it's hard telling. Just a couple thoughts - please ignore if already covered elsewhere:
1. For the "after a couple days - vanished" issue: Have you also tried another OS other than OS X? (Windows, Linux, Solaris, BSD, anything with a samba client) Are you connecting via Air Disk or SMB? I do not know the internals of Air Disk, but I have been using the samba services of the AEBS.
2. As for automount, this very much sounds like a problem with the Volume Manager in OS X. Have you sniffed the network to determine if the VM is sending out the request for mount?
3. Finder not showing unless displayed/accessed via Desktop sounds 100% OS X problem.
4. 10.4 vs. 10.5 issue again points to OS X.
5. Access permissions: This is a common issue with NAS storage. Most times it comes back to end user not understanding the capabilities or poor/incomplete documentation of the product again causing misunderstanding. I would guess given the "it just works" mantra that the documentation is somewhat lack luster causing end user confusion.
6. Time Machine Target: I agree and they should fix this. Especially with another near identical product being released. I expect an firmware update for the AEBS when TC is released.
I am not trying to be a PITA, just trying to lend my knowledge/experience to the community. I have been working with carrier class networking and storage for nearly a decade. That being said, I don't expect this device to keep pace with those environments or feature sets. This is old news for that space, but cutting edge for the SOHO and consumer space. There will be bumps in the road caused by both the vendor and end user.
I think the most important things to determine is if "Air Disk uses SMB/Bonj/etc or a proprietary application protocol. Then if the problem is with Air Disk or direct SMB access (or both.) Lastly it needs to be determined if this is a client (OS X / Air Disk) or server (AEBS) problem. These issues can not be solved until one device is pinpointed as the cause for each of these issues. Many of these in fact sound like client issues in OS X and it's supported applications. (Particularly TM sounds at fault since I can not use my SMB shares on my Linux server as a target.) I am willing to help troubleshoot, but only to an extent since we all paid Apple the money not me. =)

Finder stop working 10810 Desktop not working either Mac Book Pro 13 Snow Leopard 10.6.8

Finder stopped working 10810. I have reboot it, created a new adm account but desktop not showing files or icons on it.
I have deleted com.apple.finder.plist and even though not working.
I dont have the disks available how to recover or make finder work .
Any suggestion are welcome.

Sounds like a issue when the video cache file is being written, perhaps anti-virus is scanning it, or it's being written to smaller or failing sectors.
1: Hard drives ideally below 50% filled, never more than 80%, use Activity Monitor> Drive Usage.
2: Always on anti-virus? Uninstall it, use the free, run as you need it ClamXav instead
4: MacKeeper? Uninstall it and never use it again.
5: Copy all User files to a external storage drive (not only TimeMachine), reduce user files down, disconnect all drives, use Disk Utility > Erase Zero Free Space to catch failing sectors in free space on the boot drive.
6: Restored from TimeMachine or clone? Likely restored a corrupted system or malware.
Run through this list from #1 - #16 or go hard core and #9 and Zero erase entire drive in #20, start over.
Step by Step to fix your Mac
7: Your drive is possibly failing, you should think about replacing it
Install/upgrade RAM or storage drive in Mac's

After a Lion clean install, how do I retrieve my data from external back-up? Following Apple advice for use of Migration Assistant did not work creating similar issues leading to clean install.

After a Lion clean install, how do I retrieve my data from external hard drive?
Following Apple advice I used Migration Assistant which crashed new system twice which is why I had to clean install Lion in the first place.
Is there a sure way of doing it?
I have only a few programs that I will have to install myself and that should not be a problem.
I just want my data, music and photos back where I can use them.

Time machine backups. I went to migration assistant a few hours ago and limited my selection to "users", no need for applications, settings and other files. Stuff started moving over at a fast pace but has now seemed to stall.
I will let it run overnight as there are lots of songs and photos as well as a few movies.
If that does not work, then I will go into TM and try restore. I have restored some things in the past such a mail files and it has worked well.
The Apple fellow at the store told me to go right into TM, he may have had a point. I'll get it eventually.
