Can't mirror from ipad air to TV using Apple TV.

I have a new ipad air and Apple TV, mirroring from my ipad to my TV works fine until I try to mirror anything while using a VPN on my ipad then I either get an error message saying there was a problem try later or I only get sound on my TV but no picture

Welcome to the Apple Community Geneo.
Mirroring won't fill the TV screen. The iPad has an aspect ratio of 4:3 and the iPhone 4S or prior an aspect ratio of 3:2, neither of these will fit exactly into a TV screen which as an aspect ratio of 16:9. The Apple TV will not zoom the mirrored image, because it may well cut off information which is situated at the top or bottom of the screen.
You may wish to try each of the settings in ‘Settings > Audio & Video > Adjust for AirPlay overscan’ for the best setting that suits you.

  • How to mirror games (real racing3) from iPad to samsung tv, using apple tv ?

    Hello, how do I mirror games (real racing3) from iPad to samsung tv, using apple tv & apple extreme card ? Kind Regards Sean.

    If your going to play real time games your best bet is to use the HDMI adaptor. Due to the lag or rather delay with the response time of Apple TV or any other wireless method. Other then that you should be able to swipe up from the bottom of the screen to pull up your settings. Tap on Apple TV then chose mirroring. The icon only appears if the Apple TV box is ready and able to connect.

  • HT4437 Can't stream from iPad or Macbook Pro to Apple TV

    I can't stream video or audio from my Macbook Pro or iPad to Apple TV. It used to work but I haven't used Apple TV with my iPad or Macbook for several months. Software for the Macbook Pro, Apple TV and iPad is current and all 3 devices are logged onto the same WiFi. Home Sharing is enabled. All 3 devices are logged into iTunes with the same Apple ID. Airplay does not appear in Control Center on my iPad and I do not get the Airplay symbol on the computer or iPad when using iTunes or any other app. I tried restarting the Apple TV and even restoring factory defaults. What am I missing?

  • Can i mirror from a macbook pro to an apple tv 3 if my macbook is pre 2011?

    I am trying to miror from my macbook pro to my apple tv 3 but i cannot find the icon on my computer. Im pretty sure my macbook pro is pre 2011. Is there any other way of mirroring?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Of course, but you cannot use AirPlay Mirroring because it requires an Early 2011 or a newer MacBook Pro.
    Instead, you can use an application like AirParrot to mirror your MacBook display onto the Apple TV. It is a well-known app, so it is the one I recommend you to use, but there are more

  • Can i make calls(plus mesaages) to some one from ipad air cellular?

    Because in my country there is no 3G so can i make calls and text through gsm to my friends from ipad air cellular?
    if no it means ipaid cellular is only for 3g or 4g connections to access internet anywhere?

    you can't make calls, but if its supported, you can use facetime. another alternative is skype, but you wont be able to make actual phone calls from your ipad

  • HT201335 Is their any way I can mirror from iPad one to Apple TV

    Is their any way I can mirror from iPad one to Apple TV

    It may also be a limitation with the app, your 1G iPad can only be updated to iOS 5.1.1 where your bother inlaw's 2G will update to the latest iOS 6.1.3. Check the apps requirements in the iTunes Store.
    You should also Reset your devices, unplug the Apple TV then plug it back in. To Reset your iPad:
    From the Home screen double tap the Home button to view the multitasking bar at the bottom. Tap and hold an app at the bottom till the icons wiggle with the minus button visible. Tap the button to close all apps then tap the Home button to get back to the Home page. Press and hold the Sleep button till you see the Slide to power off message and power it off. Once powered down completely press and hold the sleep button till the Apple icon appears.

  • Can"t Print on Canon 4880 from Ipad air

    I have a Canon 4880 DW Model # NWQ15793 All in One printer and I can not print from from Ipad Air.  I'm told that App store has no downloads that will allow me to print on that particular printer.  Is there an App anywhere trhat i can download which will allow me to use this printer or do I have to go out and bu a printer that supports AirPrint?

    You would be better off with an Airprint printer, but check to see if Canon has an app or you can print through your computer using an application like Print Central or Printopia.

  • Can't seem to send email from iPad Air.

    Transferred from iPad to iPad Air   Also upgraded to new iPhone.  No prelims with email with iPhone.  Receive but can't send email from iPad Air.  Says server rejected email.  Same email sent fine from phone.  Suggestions?  Settings are the same on both devices. 

    Found my own answer.  Although I carried over settings from former iPad, the outgoing server was not set up completely. 

  • HT201407 can face time on iPad air from saudi work in another country

    I bought an iPad Air from the Virgin Mega Store in Saudi Arabia, Dhahran Mall. Unaware Face Time was not installed due to country regulations. I returned the product for a refund and after explaining the situation, I was neglected the refund, I was even willing to receive less than the amount paid for, that did not happen either. At the end of the day, I’m now stuck with an iPad Air without the use of Face time when I go home. I thought being an authorized dealer or as advertised as an Apple iStore for Apple, there would be the 14 day refund policy ??? Does anyone have any suggestions on this matter  ?? Model number: ME987AE/A
    Thanks

    Any iOS device officially sold in the KSA, which at minimum means a device sold by any authorized Apple reseller there, has by demand of that government had Facetime blocked at the hardware level. There is no way to activate it by any officially supported means.
    We cannot discuss jailbreaking in these forums.

  • Does anybody know if the ipad air 1 is using yosemite or something different? I don't know what type of safari i should install because it disappeared from the ipad. Thanks!

    Does anybody know if the ipad air 1 is using yosemite or something different? I don't know what type of safari i should install because it disappeared from the ipad. Thanks!

    YYosemite is a Mac OS and it doesn't run on an iPad. You cannot delete or install Safari on the iPad. It is on your device somewhere.
    Swipe from screen to screen to look for it.
    Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure that you didn't disable it.
    You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • My laptop has crashed and I can't sync my iPad air. I have tried to back up off I cloud but it hasn't transferred all of my photos or music. Is there anyway I can access my iTunes account any other way?

    My laptop has crashed and I can't sync my iPad air. I have tried to back up off I cloud but it hasn't transferred all of my photos or music. Is there anyway I can access my iTunes account any other way?

    Your iTunes account won't include your non-iTunes purchased e.g. music copied from CDs etc, nor photos that were synced from a computer.
    To get non-iTunes music you will have to go via a computer. If you don't have that music on, for example, an external drive, then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back from a device : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    For photos that were originally synced from a computer then there are apps such as Simple Transfer which can copy them between devices and/or to a computer (though photos are 'optimised' as part of the syncing process, so if you do copy them back to a computer then they might not be the same as they were on your laptop).
    There is also this page for syncing to a new computer : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

  • HT204291 can i mirror from my iMac  with OS X ?

    can i mirror from my iMac  with OS X ?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). It also requires the computer to be using wi-fi.

  • How delete other storage from ipad air?

    How delete other storage from ipad air?

    The iOS will NOT automatically delete "other" if the device gets full. That is totally incorrect.
    "Other" is basically all of the data and stuff that does not fit into any of the other categories on the device, like apps, photos, music, videos, and so on. It contains Safari Bookmarks and History, Notes, Contacts, Email messages, Text Messages, photos assigned to contacts, cached app data (but not documents themselves) etc. When "other" becomes too large, it can take up a lot of space and cause problems. It should not be more than a few GB at most and for most people it would probably be around 400MB - 2 GB.
    IF something gets corrupted on the iPad and "other" grows out of control, you may have to restore the device in order to clear that data. One starting point troubleshooting step for dealing with the problem is to backup your iPad, restore to factory settings and then restore the backup. There are also other less invasive things that you can try first.
    A Google search will turn up many articles that talk about how to reduce "other" on an iOS device.
