How do I allow more than one device to see Apple TV?

I'm not positive that is the correct way to pose this question, but it's the best I can come up with at the moment. The IT Department I work for at my university just recently purchased an Apple TV to test presentation and screen mirroring features for use around the building, specifically for professor lecture and presentations. We have it connected to our wifi network (WPA2 Enterprise, PEAP, InCommon Server CA certificate) through a profile created on Apple Configurator. When we have other devices (iPad Mini Late 2012-A1432, iPhones 5S, 15" Macbook Pro Late 2013-A1398) connected to the same wifi as well, but it is hit or miss whether any of those devices are able to see the Apple TV. When the device can see the Apple TV, it works fine but only on one device. We have only got the iPhone and the iPad to at least show the "AirPlay" option simultaneously. We have not got the MacBook Pro to detect it at all.
From setting this up and try to troubleshoot it, I believe the problem may be that the Apple TV sees too many devices connected to the wifi network (There is no telling how many iOS or OS X devices are connected to the network at any time. Is there a setting to enable that would alleviate this issue?

how about "find my friends" app?

  • How do I use AE to allow more than one device with my cable modem?

    I connected by AE to my cable modem at my house in Japan and it works fine on "bridge mode," but only for one device at a time (this laptop, but not my iPod Touch, or vice versa). As soon as I connect a new device, it will kick the other one off. It seems that my cable modem here will only allow one device. Is there a way that I can use my Airport Extreme to allow more than one device and not have to pay the Internet provider extra for multiple IP addresses? How do I go about this? Do I select "share a public IP address" or do I select "distribute a range of IP addresses?" I tried these options but obviously wasn't doing it correctly, because then I lost the connection for everything... Thanks!

    It would be best if you "hard reset" the Airport Extreme to clear out the old and conflicting settings and then reconfigure it again.
    Hold in the reset button until you see the amber light begin to blink more quickly. Keep holding for another 3-4 seconds when you see this and then release the reset button. That will get the Extreme back to the original starting point.
    After you have powered the modem back up after the full reset, you will need to reconfigure the AirPort Extreme again. If you are using he guided setup in AirPort Utility, you will choose the option to "create a wireless network" during the setup.
    If you are using the Manual Setup, the Wireless Mode will be "Create a wireless network" and the setting for Connection Sharing would be "Share a public IP address". Adjusting the Connection Sharing setting would be the last thing that you do before you click Update to save settings.
    Here, I am assuming that you have a simple cable modem (it will have only one ethernet port), correct?

  • How do I add more than one device to one iCloud account without the device?

    I have a device that was lost and I am trying to add devices to my iCloud so that they can access Find My iPhone but I am the only line on my iCloud. How can I add the devices to my iCloud without accessing the devices?

    First, update it to the most recent version > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623 Then, open Settings > iCloud, login with your Apple ID and activate Find my iPhone. If the child is using iCloud, he/she'll lose all her/his data, so you have to turn off each service in order to keep her/his contacts, notes, etc.

    I Have an iTunes account which I have set up for my iPhone. I have just bought my daughter an iPad but I don't want it sharing all of my apps, messages, photos etc. how can I keep them separate but choose the things that I wish to share with her?  Everything she has downloaded is showing up on my phone and vice versa.  Do I need a separate iTunes account or can I use one account and keep them separate?

  • HT201269 How can I backup more than one device using itunes? Do I need 2 seperate itune accounts?

    please respond to question above

    Syncing and backing up in iTunes can be accomplished with multiple devices. They identify the devices based on the phone number, phone name, etc. The only way you would have an issue is if you were using different calendar contacts on the computer. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1495

  • Can I share my iTunes library between more than one device with different Apple ID's?

    I just got a laptop and decided to set up my own Apple account apart from the one my family shares.  I still want a lot of the music on my family account but don't want to buy it all over again.  Is there a way for me to get this music in my new account? If so, how do I do this? I am looking for the best and simplest answer.

    Yes, if they are not DRM protected
    Open itunes, connect device, select what you want to sync, sync.
    DO the same for your other devices.

  • How to set permissions to allow reading on more than one device

    Our base permissions restrict reading to one device for 365 days with print 1 page and copy 1 page limits. For a new book we're adding to our online library, we want to allow people to read on more than one device, with a defined expiration date (January 15, 2012) and no printing and no copying. (The "more than one device" restriction is intended to allow users to transfer the book to iTunes and read it in Bluefire Reader.)
    How do we set permissions for this new book? In particular, what Read settings for devices do we use? No selection? The options in the ACS Console are not clear to us (i.e., the choice between A Single Device and Specific Device Type) and the manual doesn't offer an example. ... I'm guessing the selections should be none -- i.e., do not specify any device setting. Yes?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Jim Lyons

    What I understand your current side restrictions to be (best if they are in a distribution right rather than base permission btw)
    <permissions>
    <display>
         <device />
         <duration>31536000</duration>
    <display>
    <print>
      <count initial="1"/>
    </print>
    <excerpt>
        <count initial="1"/>
    </excerpt>
    </permissions>
    What I think you want
    <permissions>
    <display>
         <device />
         <duration>31536000</duration>
    </display>
    <display>
         <deviceType>mobile</deviceType>
         <until>2012-01-15T00:00:00-8:00</until>
    </display>
    <display>
         <deviceType>tethered</deviceType>
         <until>2012-01-15T00:00:00-8:00</until>
    </display>
    <print>
      <count initial="1"/>
    </print>
    <excerpt>
        <count initial="1"/>
    </excerpt>
    </permissions>
    (these are looking at the raw permissions rather than the dialog in the admin console)
    Which I would describe as allow viewing on the device which fulfilled the content for one year, and in addition allow viewing on any mobile or tethered device (Bluefire Reader iPad app, android app, Nook Color, etc...) until Jan 15, 2010 at midnight PST.  One print and one copy is allowed (and can only be used on the device that fulfilled the content).

  • How do I configure the Airport utility to allow more than one rule per port?

    How do I configure the Airport Utility (AU) to allow more than one rule per port?
    I am on a home network, with broadband cable modem.  I have my airport extreme connected to the broadband modem.  I have 2 servers in my home that need to be accessed remotely from time (SSH), and they also serve data for an iphone app, so I'm using a variety of protocols.  The problem I'm running into is that AU seems to only allow one rule per protocol, so if I go to add another address for access on a specific port that is being used by one of my servers, AU tells me "The Port Mapping Entry Already Exists". 
    I need to be able to allow SSH on both of my servers, for instance.  Am I missing something?  Is this doable with AU?
    Thanks for any insight.
    Khalid

    The Port Mapping "rules" on the AirPorts will allow you to: 1. Map a single port to a single IP address OR 2) Map multiple ports to a single IP address.
    What you won't be able to do is map a single or multiple ports to multiple IP addresses.

  • I have songs from icloud showing on more than one device but only want them on one so how do i delete them

    Can some tell me how i can not have the songs showing on more than one device for my account

    Krshrtr wrote:
    it wont let you swipe to the left on songs that have the cloud next to them
    That's correct - it only deletes them from your phone, not from iCloud
    If you go into Settings, Music and set Show All Music to Off, you will only see the songs that are actually on the phone.
    One other tip - once you've deleted the songs/lists you no longer want, restart the phone (hold the Home and Sleep buttons for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears) to make sure the songs are gone.

  • How to authorize more than one device on my adobe digital editions Ebook reader

    I have a computer, iPhone and iPad, and can't read a downloaded ebook (EPUB) on more than one device  at a time. If I try to open the item on my Overdrive account with a device other than the one I originally used when I downloaded the ebokk,  it gives me an error code "Fullfill  2004. This license has already been fulfilled by another user".  When I contacted Overdrive Media  they explained that I need to contact Adobe to authorize my various devices to have access to my Overdrive account which utilizes Adobe digital editions 4.0
    Please provide info on how to authorize my additional devises to have access to downloaded e-books  on my overdrive account

    Please authorize your devices with same credentials in order to read the book across devices.

  • I want to use Back to my mac. When I try to turn it on, it says "Back to My Mac may be slow because more than one device on your network is providing network services.   Turn off NAT and DHCP on one of the devices and try again." How do I fix this?

    Not sure if I am doing this right. This is my first time in the support community.
    I imagine what I put in my heading was supposed to go in here.
    I want to use Back to my mac. When I try to turn it on, it says "Back to my mac may be slow because more than one device on your network is providing network services. Turn off NAT and DHCP on one of the devices and try again. See the documentation that came with your device for information about turning off network services"
    Does anyone know how I do this? I contacted my ISP (Telus in Canada) and they did not know anything (not that they usually do).

    Why do ISPs insist upon making things so difficult for their customers?
    If you cannot get them to understand that you would prefer to use your own router over their piece of cheap junk, perhaps the information in the following will be useful:
    http://keithbalomben.wordpress.com/2012/03/29/telus-actiontec-v1000h-hacks-and-i nformation/
    Scroll down to DHCP Settings
    You will need to log in with proper "technician" credentials. They are provided in the above link as
    Username: tech
    Password: t3lu5tv
    ... but these may or may not work. Try it, and if you cannot get anywhere at least now you know what to ask Telus to do in return for your business.

    How can you set up more than one device on iTunes? I have an iPad, iPod, itouch and iPhone. I don't want the same on all devices. I have all my music/videos on iTunes on my mac book pro. Can you set up separate folders for each device and drop in what ever music/videos from the main iTunes library?

    In itunes it is called syncing and you can choose exactly what content to sync to all devices and it can be different for all of them

  • Why won't my Time Capsule allow me to connect more than one device to the network at a time?

    Ok here is the shortest story I can come up with...
    Several months ago lightening struck my house and ruined the power cord for my old AIR PORT EXTREME....after replacing the power cable my wireless network began to prohibit more than one device at a time to connect to the wireless network.
    I replaced that network with a new TIME CAPSULE and it is doing the same thing.  I took my old AirPort Extreme to my work and it works like a charm.  My ISP says it is an Apple problem but I have had the same settings both at home and at work.  Work is great, multiple devices connect but home is one at a time and in order to connect ANOTHER device I have to power down one, and reboot the router and fire up the device I wish to connect.
    Any suggestions?

    I am running off a Fiber line....the unit that is a battery back up and appears to be a modem as well is called CyberPower CS24U12V-NA3
    Techincally, there is no "router" in my house, there is a LOCKED control box outside, a battery back up module in the garage that shows battery life and connection, then a cat5 outlet in my laundry room..All of which was installed by my ISP.
    I am using a 2TB Time Capsule running DHCP in Bridge Mode.  I can't find the software version but updated it while installing it within the last two months.

    Enable NAT Port mapping is checked
