AirPlay not working on any of my apple devices after iOS 6 update. Any ideas on how to fix this?

If You are trying to watch content when you are downloading, it let it download then watch it this works for me as i had the same problem.

Why will airplay not work from my desktop to apple tv after I installed the new update?

After I installed the new Updates to Itunes, I can no longer use airplay from my desktop to my Apple TV, it goes orange and says it does not work. Please help! They are both on the same network and Apple TV has been updated.

Figured it out, you have to add a port!

Apple TV & Mid 2012 Macbook Air 11.6'' - AirPlay not working

So I just purchased the new MBA to replace my 2010 air...which also suffers from a cracked screen. Since mirroring wont work on the old model anyways, I sold the unit and cut my loses (I was going to replace to LCD but decided it wasn't worth the effort.)
Anyways...
I attempted to use the MBA and the mirroring function out of the box and it worked great. Sure the mouse was a little sluggish, and the audio obviously delayed (on the MBA), but synced perfectly to the TV. I watched YouTube videos, and some other flash and HTML5 embeded content. I was prompted for an update for my Apple TV 3, and today for my MBA. After updating, and restarting both units (which I have done several times since then too), mirroring does not work as it should.
When I select the TV usually it would adjust to a resolution higher than the MBA native resolution--but appropriate for the TV. Instead, the MBA screen goes blue, adjusts to the resolution, and then goes blue again, returning to a non mirroring mode.
Sometimes when I do get mirroring to work--at the MBAs standard resolution--AirPlay will be "working" despite it saying that mirroring is off and greyed out.
The biggest frustration out of all of this is that whenever I go to play a video, assuming AirPlay doesn't stop mirroring at whatever random resolution it picks (I have adjusted between a fixed and aspect appropriate setting), the AUDIO will only play through my televisions speakers, and the video will stop feeding and go back to the Apple TV home screen.
It has done this with YouTube, HBOGO, Hulu, and a number of other video streams online.
Has anyone else had this issue so far?
To reiterate:
Using mid 2012 MBA on OSX Mountain Lion
Apple TV 3 will stream audio and mirror sometimes, but stops mirroring whenever video is played.
AirPlay icon will remain available, but will say mirroring is unavailable / greyed despite it actually "working."

Hey thellamaPod,
Thanks for the question. The following resource provides troubleshooting information for AirPlay Mirroring in OS X. Usually, this may be caused by the firewall and a simple tweak of the settings should resolve your issue:

Firewall security settings
If you use a firewall, make sure the following firewall security options have been set to allow AirPlay Mirroring to work:
1. Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu ().
2. Click Security & Privacy, then click Firewall.
3. Click the lock icon to unlock it if it's locked, then type an administrator name and password.
4. Click Firewall Options.

Appletv remote app and airplay not working with iphone 4S

I have the latest appleTV. I have the remote app loaded onto my ipad3 and iphone 4S. The app is not working with iphone 4S, nor do I get the airplay icon, hence I can't mirrior my phone on appleTV. It used to work. I have deleted and reloaded the app, and still nothing. It worked fined until a month ago or so. I have enabled home sharing.
The app and airlplay are working just fine with the ipad3. I have the ipad and appleTV hooked up to my router using 5Ghz, and the iphone only connects to the 2Ghz network on the same router. I don't think this is the issue, because it worked before.
Also, when I click on the remote app on the iphone, to add an itunes library, a code pops up on the phone, which I enter into itunes on my Win7 PC. Nothing seems happed on the computer when I enter the code. Could this have anything to do with recent appleTV or itunes updates? Any possible solutions?

It seems like I am having the same problem.
I have the latest AppleTV 1080, imac 27", ipad, ipad2, 2 iphone 4, all with the latest iOS. After I have the AppleTV connected, a few problems showed up:
(1) ipad plus iphones cannot airplay photo to AppleTV. After the play button and the grey screen displayed "the playing msg on AppleTV", nothing happened. it is the same for ipad/iphone.
(2) iMac not Airplay to AppleTV
(3) Airplay Mirroring not working
The following are done:
- Home sharing enabled
- To test the devices are connected. I set a passowrd for Airplay and the ipad/iphone both requested for it so they are network and devices are ok

HT4437 Airplay not working through my home theatre system

The Airplay icon has been enabled to choose my Airport Express but there is no playback.

Not sure if this will resolve your problem but I had same problem. The airplay button would not show up on my iOS devices particularly my iPhone and I noticed the remote app was not working correctly also. For airplay and the remote app it wax a hit or miss the later being the most. The thing was my remote app usually never acted up before but than in remembered that I recently changed my router from an Apple Express to an Extreme. I had my Express set up in manual mode and I selected channel 11 manually. But when I set up the Airport Extreme I left the router in the default mode of "automatic". Upon changing the Extreme back to manual and selecting my own channel, everything has been great! So if most of you are like me and live in an Apple ecosystem and have Apple routers you may want to make sure the router is not set in automatic. I believe this to be what is causing problems.

HT1145 Why is iOS 5.1 AirPlay not working with Airport Express

Ive updated my iPad and iphone to iOS 5.1 and now AirPlay is not working with my Airport Exress set up.
Can anyone help me out? I can't seem to resolve this and I'm an apple head

I have the same problem from my Ipad 2 and my Iphone 4S trying to airplay to my Apple TV 2. i dont get any airplay button when playing photos or \video.
All worked fine with IOS 5.0
Whats going on?

AirPlay not working with my home wifi, but is fine at work. Suggestions?

I have a new AppleTV, fully updated with the latest updates. I also have an iPad, fully updated with the latest OS. I have done all of the required steps to login with my Apple ID, etc. Home sharing is on.
But the ATV does not detect the iPad, and the iPad does not detect the ATV. When I play a video on iPad, the airplay logo does not even appear in the control bar. The ATV does, however, connect to the wifi no problem and download direct from itunes/netflix etc.
To try it under different circumstances, I took the ATV and iPad to my office and set it up with an HDTV there. AirPlay worked flawlessly.
This leads me to believe the problem must be the wifi. In terms of internet at home, I am using a Time Warner RoadRunner internet package with a Netgear N150 wireless router.
Any suggestions?

Windows 7 iTunes Home Sharing or AirPlay not working? - Checkpoint

Wanted to share this for anyone else who ends up searching, as it took me a couple days to track it down. Both Home Sharing and AirPlay stopped working when I upgraded iTunes to 10.2.2, they were both working with 10.1.x. I tried a number of things, including downgrading, factory reset on my router, etc. and finally tracked it down to my Checkpoint VPN. Don't know why the problem didn't exist while I was on 10.1, but regardless removing Checkpoint fixed my issue. Note that I didn't need to be connected to anything via Checkpoint, just having it installed was enough.

I tried re-installing again and did a restart and it seems to be working again.

Airplay not working with an ASA in the middle

Hi All
This is my case: In the lab I could configure mDNS on my 5508 with the global multicast and igmp snooping disabled. Only I needed was Global mDNS multicast enabled (based on Cisco Guide) and it worked fine under the following scenarios:
All the services connected wireless
IPAD on subnet A and Apple TV on subnet B, no Firewall in the middle. Peer to Peer Blocking in the WLC was any DROP or DISABLED and it worked fine.
BUT, when I moved into production environment, the only way that it works is by having both Apple Devices in the same subnet with the Peer to Peer bloking DISABLED. I have a firewall ASA in the middle so I do not know what should I check in the firewall to allow Airplay to work.
However, there is something really weird. in the IPAD, I can see the AIRPLAY icon at the bottom of the screen, when I click on it, I can see MIRRORING button and I moved it to the right to activated it BUT nothing happens on the AppleTV connected to an screen. I mean, looks like the request for MIRRORING from the IPAD to the Apple TV device is not reaching the last one. A few seconds after activating MIRRORING in the IPAD looks like the request is dropped since that the mirroring is not active.
Is there any particular multicast configuration required in the ASA including ports (like 5353 udp)?
I have an open case with TAC but any ideas are welcomed.
By the way, I am running v 7.6 in the WLC in order to implement mDNS (traffic between ssid's subnet managed by the WLC - Bonjour Gateway is not neccesary)
thanks
Abraham

Hi David,
Let me share with you my findings. Apple TV requires more than 5353 port opened. Please see the following link and include in your ASA those additional ports/range. I mean, 7000, 7100, 5000 (udp/tcp), etc etc.
http://community.arubanetworks.com/t5/Unified-Wired-Wireless-Access/apple-macbook-airplay-appletv-firewall-port-findings/td-p/55048
After opening those ports, the service is working BUT with significant LATENCY/SLOWNESS which we are trying to solve.
We took some packets captures on the ASA ingress/egress interfaces for both contexts (see pictures attached) and I could see many retransmissions and duplicated ACK so I tried something else that worked (see Apple TV Works attached file) BUT this is not the final solution we need so we are still working on this issue in order to check if there is something wrong with our routing/switching process in the 6500 LAN SW.
I created static routes in the ASA contexts to communicate the IPAD to the APPLE TV (ports already opened in the ASA as indicated before) without traversing the Wireless 6500 SW (test performed on VLAN A and VLAN B) and it worked fine. However as I said, this is not the solution we want because the Wireless 6500 SW must manage inter-ASA-contexts traffic.
In addition to that I attached another picture/diagram that shows when Apple TV service fails-latency (traffic crossing the Wireless 6500 SW for communication between ASA contexts).
Important to say that I am NOT using MULTICAST or BROADCAST ENABLED in the WLC. I am based on mDNS as indicated in the Cisco Guide/Instructions for version 7.5 and above.
Hope this helps.

Airplay not working on ios7 and latest apple TV update

I have upgraded to ios7 on my 3rd gen iPad and iPhone 5 and updated my 3rd gen apple TV today. I now can't see the airplay icon on the iPhone or the iPad when I bring up the command centre. They were there on ios6. Airplay is switched on, on apple TV and they're all on the same wifi network. Any ideas on whats going on? I have looked at the similar posts and the fixes dont work for me.
Cheers

After several hours to back up and restore my ipad 3 the airplay is working. It may have been there all the time. The first Apple rep tried to help thinking it was bluetooth connection. I did everything she told me to to including starting the ipad as a new ipad. Second rep tried going thru some of the same things. Then when I insisted that my Bose was an airplay...not bluetooth he told me to swipe up to get the command center and there it was. They moved the airplay to the command center instead of the upper left hand corner of the screen where it appeared in ios6.
I still don't have airplay on my iphone 4s but the leaving that alone until I check my husbands phone that has not been upgraded to ios7.
I give Apple Support and A for effort but a C for knowing the new platform.

AirPlay not working with Wi-Fi access point

Got home network, everithing worked fine including AirPlay. Decided to switch off radio on main router and place an access point to boost wi-fi signal. Model - Dlink DAP-1350. All works fine, much better coverage, BUT NO AirPlay. At all. Not a songle player is seen from wireless devices. Remove access point, turn back radio on main router - all works again.
Btw with access point on wired devices see all AirPlay speakers just fine, only wired are not working at all.
Any ideas where to look for a fix?

Correct, you will need a BlackBerry Data Plan from your carrier for the BlackBerry functions and features.
Some third party applications like Opera Mini will work, and as well, your Hotspot browser will work with the WiFi.
You must have the Data Plan, in order to get the RIM push email functions you are looking for, as well as addtional BlackBerry data services such as the internet browser, Facebook for BlackBerry, BlackBerry Messenger, and much more.
So, call your carrier and inquire about having the BlackBerry Data Plan added to your account.
Good luck.

Why is airplay not working in mavericks?

Airplay has disappeared from the menu bar. I have installed 10.9.3

Hi Stonebrook,
It sounds like AirPlay was working but you no longer see the AirPlay mirroring options on your Mac. The article below has some great tips that should help you resolve the issue.
About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5404
Troubleshooting AirPlay Mirroring
If you don't see mirroring options
If your Mac and Apple TV are on the same network, but no AirPlay Mirroring menu appears, your Apple TV may be asleep. Simply press a button on your Apple TV remote to wake it up. After a few seconds, the AirPlay Mirroring menu extra appears. If you still don't see the options you expect, make sure your Apple TV has the currentsoftware update installed. Also make sure that you have the "Show mirroring options in the menu bar when available" option selected in the Displays pane of System Preferences.
If the menu bar or Dock is cropped
Some HDTVs have bezels that cover a small percentage of the screen. This can result in a slight cropping of a full-resolution HDTV image. Depending on the HDTV model, AirPlay Mirroring may automatically adjust the picture size to prevent cropping. If you are using OS X Mountain Lion or later, and you see cropping of the menu bar or Dock when using AirPlay Mirroring, toggle the Overscan correction option in Displays preferences.
Minimize video post-processing
HDTVs often apply picture quality enhancements intended to improve the look of film and video sources. In some cases, these enhancements can lead to over-sharpening artifacts when displaying your Mac desktop. Some HDTV models have built-in settings to change or disable the enhancements for use with a computer (computer, presentation, or game modes). Otherwise, the controls for sharpness, detail enhancement and noise reduction can be used to optimize the appearance of the Mac desktop. Consult your HDTV’s manual for guidance on the appropriate settings for use with a computer.
Firewall security settings
If you use a firewall, make sure the following firewall security options have been set to allow AirPlay Mirroring to work:
Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu ().
Click Security & Privacy, then click Firewall.
Click the lock icon to unlock it if it's locked, then type an administrator name and password.
Click Firewall Options.
Deselect (uncheck) the “Block all incoming connections” checkbox.
Select (check) the “Automatically allow signed software to receive incoming connections” checkbox.
