Cannot get apple tv to play tv shows on tv via ipad 2

my daughters ipad2 has a downloaded tv series. We have apple tv and wanted to view from the ipad 2. I shows the icon of the tv series clearly, and a bar that shows the amount of time on the series, but it cannot play on the tv. It plays on the ipad2, but not on the tv even if it seems to sync. The icon of the movie is clearly on the tv and you can hear the sound of the show, but there is no video playing. It seems as if I am missing a step. I also tried with my ipad 2 and the same thing. You can see the folder of the video, but nothing showing on the tv. Please any suggestions?

No they are not the same. Is airplay enabled on Apple TV? Are both on the same network?

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
    '''If Firefox is open,''' you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    * Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    '''If Firefox is not running,''' you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".

    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

  • After installing ios6 on my iphone 4, I cannot get my audiobook to play

    After installing ios6 on my iphone 4, I cannot get my audiobook to play. This is an audiobook I bought through iTunes and shows up under the Music icon, but it will not play it. Tried installing audiobooks to play it, but cannot get it to play it either. Any ideas?

    If your iTunes is the latest version, restart your computer and reboot your iPhone. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPhone restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • Cannot get any sound when playing .avi files

    Hi All
    I am running QT version 6.5.3 on Mac OS X 10.2.8 and cannot get any sound when playing .avi files but the picture is perfect.
    I have installed the following: M-Peg 2 playback component, AVI Components and AC3 component.
    Does anyone know if I am missing anything or how I can fix this?
    Many thanks
    Garry

    Download and install Perian from http://perian.org/
    You should read this support page http://perian.org/#support in case you need to delete older codecs. In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them). However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from http://www.divx.com/divx/mac/

  • HT204053 I cannot get apple to accept my credit card details, tried 3 cards no luck

    I cannot get apple to accept ant credit card details

    Could be any number of things - hard to tell since you haven't provided details.  If this is for a purchase on the app store, the card's address must be from the same country as the store's location.  Could be lots of other issues.

  • Cannot get apple tv to work?

    Today I tried to use my apple tv and I cannot get it to load HBO go and it just spins and spins and spins and it seems to be having a hard time connecting to my apple ID and the internet. I have no idea what to do at this point because I've tried signing out and back in and unplugging it.

    Ok the restarting issue sheds a new light on things. If you're able to get to the main menu try going to settings and try a restore. Otherwise try grabbing a micro USB cable to restore via iTunes

    Beyond that may need to take it back to an Apple store to see if it's defective

  • Can't Get Apple Authorization to Play Purchased iTunes Songs

    I purchased over 200 songs from iTunes on another computer and Apple ID. When I moved and got another PowerMac, I let my .Mac account expire and later I opened another .Mac account with the different Apple ID (the one I am currently using). When I try to play any of these many songs I get an error message saying that my computer is not authorized to play the sing. It lists my old Apple ID and password, but when I put them in another error message pops up saying that the Apple ID or Password was incorrect. Since I paid for all these songs and have not exceeded the allowable 5 computer for authorization, is there any way that I can get Apple to authorize these songs on my current Apple ID? Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Take a look at the iTunes Store Password FAQ. That may provide some tips, and a form through which to contact the iTunes Store customer service group if you need further assistance.
    Good luck.

  • Cannot get apple tv to work at all?

    Cannot get my apple tv to work since i got lion

    Does it still see interent content/Movie rentals just not your iTunes library?
    If you've not done so unplug AppleTv2 from mains then restart it in case it's somehow still trying to talk to the pre-Lion machine and not getting the right/expected responses.
    Try disabling/re-enabling Home Sharing in iTunes if that doesn't work.

  • Cant get downloaded movie to play or show up on Ipod touch

    I downloaded a movie from I tunes last night and cannot get it to play on Ipod Touch.  No movie icom on the touch only video....please tell me I am missing a short cut somewhere....

    Go to the video icon and there should be a movie section tab at the bottom or you might have to click more, if this isn't there than go to iTunes and make sure the movie you downloaded is checked off.

  • I have just downloaded CS6 and RAW 8.2.  I cannot get RAW into Bridge, but it shows up in Photoshop Preferences.  How can I get RAW into Bridge?

    How do I get Camera RAW 8.2 to show up in Bridge?

    The latest ACR for CS6 is ARC 8.7.1 and ist get installed into a common folder that both Photoshop and Bridge use. CS6 perpetual Windows should be at level 13.0.1.3 and Mac at level 13.0.6 where subscription CS6 version should be at version 13.1.2.  You may have installed ACR 8.2 into Photoshop CS6 Plug-in folder  that is not the correct location.. Where it goes depends on your OS Platform and level.
