You don't say which OS version you are running (it's not iOS 8.1). Without necessary information, here are the requirements for Airplay:

How can you use iMessage between 3 iPads with 3 different users but only one Apple ID?

how can you use iMessage between 3 iPads with 3 different users but only one Apple ID?

No you do not need separate Apple ID's in order to use 3 devices with one Apple ID. I use 4 devices to Message and FaceTime and all use the same Apple ID. You do need to add additional email addresses for the other devices.
Look at this very informative video for the instructions.

How can I use AirPlay from a wireless device while in 'Join a network' mode with an Ethernet client?

I just got the brand new Airport Express (simultaneous dual-band 802.11n) and I'm trying to set it up to join an existing working wireless network that I have in my house, and to drive my home stereo amplifier and have my desktop hooked up via the wired Ethernet port on the Airport Express. Here's how I set it up:
-Wireless mode is 'Join a wireless network'
-Wireless Network Name: <my home network>
--Allow Ethernet clients is checked
-Internet is configured via DHCP (it gets a valid DHCP lease and IP address on my subnet)
-AirPlay is enabled
-The audio out from the Airport Express is connected to my amplifier via an optical digital cable.
If I leave it set up just as described above, I can select the Airport device from iTunes on my MacBook Pro and play music directly to the speakers. Perfect.
The problem comes when I go to plug in my desktop to the wired Ethernet port on the Airport Express. As soon as I plug in the Ethernet, AirPlay stops working on the laptop. Even if iTunes is in the middle of playing a track, the track will stop when the Ethernet cable is plugged in (with a device on the other end). Doesn't matter which of the two Ethernet ports I use. My desktop is able to use the internet while plugged in to the Airport Express, but iTunes on the laptop is no longer able to connect to the Airport Express to use AirPlay.
I've found that if instead of plugging my desktop into the Airport Express's wired ethernet, I plug in the laptop, then iTunes on the laptop is able to use AirPlay -- but then no other devices on the network are able to use AirPlay.
It appears that as soon as I plug in a wired Ethernet device to the Airport Express it only "listens" to AirPlay connections from devices connected to that wired interface. But this is the opposite of what I want. I want it to listen to AirPlay connections from wireless devices connected to the same network as the Airport Express. Is this possible? Is there some hidden setting I have to enable?
Thanks!

Hi Hreb,
I can find nothing wrong with your configuration, but I was curious if there were something illegal about having an Express "join" a wireless network, and still have AirPlay enabled for wireless clients while simultaneously serving as a bridge to a wired one.
To address that uncertainty I implemented your proposed application with the preceding model AirPort Express, and determined it works as you would expect it to: I connected a wired-only PC to the Express, verified that it can connect to the Internet, and streamed Airtunes from a Mac to speakers connected to the Express. I think this is what you want, and it works with no surprises. I was also able to stream Airtunes from the PC connected to the Express as you did, but as you know only one device can stream to the Express at any one time.
I do not have a new simultaneous dual band Express to test though, so all I can conclude is that there may be a bug with the new one that is preventing you from accomplishing this.
Since it is new, I recommend you call Applecare on Monday and explain what you are trying to do. Explain it works with the older Express and you think this ability should remain unchanged with the new dual band model. It is likely they won't be able to help, and at best will offer to exchange it for another one, but if it is a bug as I suspect any replacement dual-band Express will behave the same way.
The important thing is to inform Apple and obtain a case number so that this problem will eventually get the attention of Engineering who might be able to address this with a future update.
Let me know what you find out. Thanks.

What do I need to do to play Airplay on Apple TV from my computer. The option is not in my display setting, so, obviously, I do not have the capability. Do i need to upgrade my software?

You can't.

How can I use airplay in the classroom?

I want to use my iPhone in the classroom via airplay. How do I do this without having to pay for an airport express? Can I not just mirror the images wirelessly?

Hi
To use airplay you need an airplay capable device such as Apple TV and an iPhone that is 4s or higher, mine is only 4 so I can't access airplay. Once both the Apple TV and phone or iPad are connected to the same wireless notwork you will be able to mirror your screens.
I hope this helps.

How can you use AirPlay Mirroring to always show one of your open desktop screens?

I have Mountain Lion on a 2011 Mac, and have a number of desktop screens which I use regularly.
My question is, how do I choose only one of those open desktop screens to beam to Apple TV via mirroring? For example, so that I can show a presentation on the projector screen (via Apple TV) and read the slide notes directly from a word document on the Mac screen (which the audience cannot see) or for example, to beam a full screen DVD to my TV so that the family can watch it, whilst I continue to actually work on the Mac on a different desktop screen?
Hope that makes sense...
Thanks
Jonathan

I understand your problem but don't think it's possible:( My only solution is to play my tutorials from the networked drive to my ATV2 while following along with the exercise materials. If you've found a solution please let me know? I thought it'd be possible to assign mirroring to one desktop, like I think you said in the original post, with some type of terminal command but no luck yet. Thanks

How can I use Airplay Mirror of Photos app without slideshow?

Every time i try to use airplay mirror and go to the photos app it starts the slideshow feature.
I can't find a way to disable the slide show. I want simply to mirror my photos so I can zoom them and move around.
Did anyone figure out a way to do that?

HT204291 How can i use airplay in Public network?

For some reason I can't connect to airplay using public network ( secured & password proteced ) for e.g. Hotel network.
Can you please suggest me settings so that I can use airplay function. thanks

if the network require one to login using a browser then the appletv can't
unless one adhoc connects to a laptop set to share it's internet
but that would mean that the ios device would likely not be on the same network as the appletv
if the network does not depend on a login using a browser and it still does not work then likely they blocked all ports apart from port 80 (www surf port) so airplays ports are not working

How can I use airplay if my receiver does not have the small audio jack?

I have a harmon kardon receiver for surround sound, but it does not have the small audio input jack to hook to my small apple airplay. Any ideas? should I just us the LAN plug from my receiver to airplay and try to connect itunes to it?
Or, can I just attach an old ipod to the stereo and leave it there as a hard drive for my itunes?
Thanks!

You will need a cable similar to the link below.
Mini Jack on one end and a pair of RCA jacks on the other.

These can be purchased at Wal-Mart etc. for about $6
If you have an Apple Airport Express, that is what you need.
