    Cannot get AirPlay icon

    I found it by accident too on ipad 3 after a software update, before the update I only had to double click the home button to bring up the control menu.
    In landscape mode, use any finger and starting from the outside margin/border of your ipad, anywhere along its length, just roll your finger in upwards direction to reveal the control menu - the icon for airplay will obviously only show once you have other devices to connect to , ie ATV etc
    Sorry if above seems to be spelt out for a child but some of us, including me who is new to
    Apple products, need instructions to follow easily !

  • HT201335 how get airplay icon showing up

    I have AirTv connected to corporate Wifi AP and an Ipad connected to the same network but the AirPlay icon do not show up on control center. Do we have a setting to turn on to get it?
    The network allow P2P connections. I have a PC connected on the network and I can ping both devices.
    Does anyone have an idea what I should look to get the system working?

  • Cannot get airplay icon on iPhone 4S, Cannot get airplay icon on iPhone 4S

    I am trying to airplay off of my iPhone 4S. Airplay worked twice about a month ago but now it doesn't work at all and on my iPhone I don't have the icon. I'm connected to the same internet network as the Apple TV and when I let it go idle , the screen suggests that I do airplay and connect to my internet(which I am) and choose "Apple TV"(which is the name of my Apple TV) and no airplay icons show on my iPhone or my iPad or any other apple device in the house.

    Hi, Simoneyponey. 
    I see that you are having issues with AirPlay.  Try closing multitasking by following the steps in the first article below.  I have also included an article that covers AirPlay troubleshooting.

  • Cannot get airplay icon on mac mini 2012 (newer version-mountain lion) or on ipad2 (ios6.1) any ideas? Apple tv says to turn on home sharing, but mac mini says home sharing is on

    Does anyone know if this is router issue that does not allow the conection between devices??
    The ipad, mac mini and apple tv can access by themselfs the internet wirelessly!,

    Start by rebooting everything, including router.  Take all cables out ATV for 30 seconds to.
    Just a first look.

  • HT201335 I cannot get airplay on either my iPhone 5 or my iPad

    I cannot get airplay on either my iPhone 5 or my iPad. I have changed the language to French and back to English but it hasn't worked. It doesn't work on my partners phone or iPad either. All have updates completed!!
    Can someone suggest something else?

    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    Restart your mobile device.

  • Cannot get CS3 photoshop on my mac os10 to open my canon rebel T1i .CR2 files

    I have spent hours downloading a variety of stuff and still cannot get  CS3 photoshop on my mac os10 to open my canon rebel T1i .CR2 files. I  have downloaded the Camera Raw 4.6 plugin. Photoshop acknowledges that  is the version installed. But it won't recognize the .CR2 file type.  When I say show me all files, the files show up in the open file dialog,  and the thumbnails look right, but when I open the file it is munged. I  also installed the DNG Converter, which also does not recognize the  .CR2 files.
    Has anyone figured this out yet? It has been almost a year. I don't want to upgrade to CS4 or 5 or buy Lightroom.

    The Adobe DNG Converter 6.2 will open your files, if you have an uncorrupted download and use it properly.  No doubt about that.
    Once you launch it, be sure to target a folder containing raw files, not the raw files themselves.  At least on the Mac, the DNG Converter works on folders, not on individual files.
    Alternatively, you can try dragging and dropping the individual raw files onto the DNG Converter icon.
    Some routine maintenance may be overdue on your Mac, such as Repairing Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility, running Onyx or Cocktail, etc.

  • I cannot find the icon for office:mac 08 word on my doc, where did it go?

    I cannot find the icon for Office: mac 08 word on my doc. I downloaded the whole Office: mac 2008 Home & Student Edition about a year ago and just recently the word icon disappeared. The other Office icons are still visible and i am able to use them but i cannot find the word application anywhere.

    Have you used spotlight search? Typed "word" and the application doesn't appear? If it doesn't then it probably isn't around anymore.... so hit command + space ... and type "word"... what happens?

  • I cannot get iCloud to sync my mac reading list (bookmarks).

    I cannot get iCloud to sync my mac reading list (bookmarks) with my iPad and have tried several times unsuccessfully. Have had it connected to a power source AND have enabled the documents section on the iCloud backup. What am I doing wrong? Do I need to upgrade to Lion?

    I have installed and signed in to sync on both PC and Android tablet. My history has been synced but bookmarks have not come across to the tablet, although the appropriate box is ticked on both.
    I tried entering about:sync-progress on both machines. "Setup Complete" appears on the PC but on the tablet I am told that the address isn't valid.
    The sync tab that opens up lists my "Firefox Account" with no option to manage or disconnect.
    How can I get round this?
