How can i find the air play icon because it isn't showing up

I cannot figure out how to use my air play. The air play icon is not visible when double tapping the home button. I own a MacBook Air, Iphone 4s and an iPad 3. All of my software is up to date and my wireless connection is the same.

Is the Apple TV up to daye? What software is it running currently? Have you enabled airplay?

    I have looked through the settings. I am logged onto my Wi-Fi and it does not want to appear. I only have my I-pad and the apple sky. This is really painful

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds, or resetting it using the reset option under general. You should also try restarting your router and other devices.

  • HT201386 how can I find the Image number of a particular photo in the Photos app included with iPad Air?

    how can I find the Image number of a particular photo in the Photos app included with iPad Air?

    Hello yamacutta,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    The Photos app will not show you the actual file name of the photo.  However when you go through the image import process on your computer, you should be able to see both the thumbnail of the photo, as well as the filename of the image.
    Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
    Take care,
    Alex H.

  • HT4623 How do I get the Air Play feature on my iPad with the iOS7.1 update?

    Just updated my iPad with iOS 7.1 and I don't get the Air Play icon with any video apps.  What happened to Air Play?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • How can I find the location of an app on my iPad 2?

    How can I find the location of an app on my iPad 2? The app comes up with a search, but that seems to be the only way to find it. I just installed the app today, but I can't figure out where it is. It has a pretty distinctive icon, and I've looked through all of my apps and even in folders (even though I don't know how it would have gotten there). I want to put it in an appropriate folder under the right subject, but I can't find it to do this. I can use the app, since I can find it through a search though. I have a lot of apps, but I looked very carefully and can't find it. Is there a way to ask my iPad to locate it for me? It's a $25 app and one I plan to use regularly, so I want it located in the folder of my choice.This problem makes we wonder if I have other "missing" apps, apps that I could  find if I happened to think to search for them, but that don't appear to be on my iPad (even though they actually  are).

    You were right about the homescreens. I had turned my iPad off for the night with less than three full homescreens of loose apps, those not in folders. When I turned the iPad on this morning to try your suggestions, I had five full pages of loose apps. They just appeared when I restarted, and there was the app I was looking for, easy to find. Last night I was deleting apps I decided I wouldn't use, organizing useful apps into folders, and making sure I had as few pages as needed by making sure the gaps made by the moved/deleted apps were closed. The missing apps didn't show up at that point; I was just left with fewer than 11 pages. The apps only showed up when I restarted this morning. There were almost three extra pages of apps that weren't there last night. I know there must be other things missing, since all of the pages are full. So I tried your suggestion in iTunes. I connected my iPad, found an app in the alphabetical list on the left, and double clicked it. This brought me to the app's homescreen (and its home folder when applicable), the place where it was located. In order to identify which page that was, I had to scroll through the screen shots of the homescreens that was below the homescreen that was showing until I found the homescreen whose number was in white. Then I could count the pages on my iPad until I got to that page. I'll have to delete more apps and organize more into folders to see what else might show up. There are just too many apps available for special education, and I'm in the process of figuring out which are the best for my needs. Thanks so much!

  • How can I add the hard drive icon to the menu bar on a MBPr

    How can I add the hard drive icon to the menu bar on a MBPr?  I have downloaded Google Earth and it wants me to drag it to the hard drive for install. I was able to display the icon but now I would like to put it on the menu bar. Is this possible? Or can I add it to the hardware section under system preferences?
    I'm a new Apple user, coming out of the dark ages of a lifetime in the PC Windows world.
    Thanks

    It's on your Desktop, is it not? You cannot put it on the menubar through OS X although you may find third-party utilities that will. If you want it on the Desktop:
    Select Preferences from the Finder's Finder menu and check the desired boxes:
    Click on the Sidebar icon in the toolbar to set what you want displayed in the Sidebar.

  • Where is the "Air Play" icon in iTunes11?

    I have iTunes 11.01.12 running on my PC with Windows XP.  iTunes runs properly, but the "Air Play" icon is not visible in the header next to the volume slider, as indicated in the iTunes help guide.  How do I get iTunes to display the "Air Play" icon?

    I was able to fix this by following the instructions here [1].  It seems like this was specific to my Asus router, so not sure if others are seeing similar issues with other branded routers.
