HT204291 airplay icon not showing up on windows  laptop when appletv is connected through ethernet

itunes cannot detect apple tv when apple tv is connected through ethernet and the laptop is wireless, although both devices are in the same overall network.

Then I suspect your network or it's settings are your problem.

  • HT3819 Airplay icon not showing in iTunes on Windows 7

    I recently installed a USB wireless connection to my desktop so I could have a wireless connection to iTunes and use Airplay. At firdt it worked great but now the Airplay icon does not display and I can not seem to get it back. I have home sharing turned on in iTunes and it works on my iPad mini and iPhone 5. I have tried several of the suggested fixes including removing and reinstalling iTunes 11. All to no avail. Any suggestions?

    Temporarily disable any security software on the computer.

  • Airplay Icon not Showing when connected to my car's bluetooth stereo

    I have an UVO system in my Kia. It has been working great with the Iphone Airplay since October. I recently updated my phone and now, just like many others, no airplay showing up on my music apps.
    I basically use Spotify and Pandora all the time with zero issues. Now when my phone is connected to my car through bluetooth, my phone works perfectly and can talk through the speakers for calls but the music apps do not display the icon to switch between dock connector or bluetooth audio. This has led me to believe it's not a problem with my UVO system in my car but rather an apple related issue. Why would they dissapear? I have tried shutting off, rebooting, and all that jazz on both my Iphone 4 and Ipad2. Also, even when connected through the USB port, the UVO still doesnt recognize the audio.
    Any advice would be awesome!

    I DON'T text and drive. I just want be able to hear, for example, alerts that I have put on my calendar. I can/do pull over to look at texts--but not when I don't know that I have a message. This was never an issue until a couple of weeks ago.

  • Airplay icon not showing up even though all devices connected to network

    I have an ipad (about 1.5 years old) and a macbook pro (about 2 years old), and I just recently got the newest apple tv (I apologize for not knowing the exact models of what I have). Everything has the most recent updated software, but I have been having a lot of trouble with the airplay. The icon only shows up about 1/3 of the time we try to use it (on both the macbook and the ipad). I double and triple check that everything is connected to the network, and i even restart all of my devices multiple times. Sometimes it eventually ends up showing up and working great, sometimes we get so frustrated and just quit trying. The crazy thing is that other times when Im not trying to use the airplay, I see the icon all the time! What is going on here? Does anyone have any tips to get the airplay to work besides just restarting everything until it decides to appear?? Thanks so much

    It could be due to interference on the network. Check istumbler.net to verify

  • Airplay Icon not showing in iTunes

    I have a problem with my Win8.1 laptop and the current iTunes version 11.3.0 using airplay with my ATV 1 (current firmware)
    Airplay usually works when I start up iTunes after booting the ATV but what really bothers me is that when my laptop looses WLAN connectivity for a few seconds, iTunes won't reconnect to the ATV and ask me to use the computer instead. After that the airplay icon disappears, and won't reapper until I have restarted the ATV and the laptop (alltough it may be that restarting the ATV isn't necessary).
    I have disabled IPV6 and tried restarting iTunes, the Bonjour service and the WLAN adapter, nothing helps but a restart.
    Airplay however continues to work fine with my iPhone / iPad.
    Any hints on what might be causing this? If not I'd suggest that the Apple developers overthink the discovery algorimth for airplay devices...

    Sorry, my bad, I have mistaken my ATV for a 1G in fact its a 2G. can't seem to change the first post but there you go.
    I connected the ATV to my iTunes lib to try the starting / stopping a song, but it didn't help. Also I'd prefer a solution that doesn't need the TV to be turned on (right now I'm using the optical coax out for music only). Thanks for the tip though.
    Further suggestions would be appreciated.

  • Airplay icon not showing up on bridged Airport Express

    Hi
    I have an Airport Extreme on my network broadcasting an SSID, and an Airport Express on the same network working as a bridge to extend the same SSID. I have some Apple TV's connected to the extreme.
    The trouble is that when I am connected to the extreme, I can see the Apple TV's. when on the bridged Express, I can't. Why?

    Hi there icelandicfarmer,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

  • Itunes x64 Windows 8.1 Itunes 11.1.3, Itunes doesn't display airplay icon for multi speakers, it does appear when my iphone connects via airplay to my airport express being used for wireless audio. How to fix ?

    Here goes, when Itunes is started (have tried pc reboot and itunes restart) no airplay icon, even though my airport express is connected to second stereo, with green light and confirmed newest firmware for device id A1264 etc. Can send audio to device and device works well.
    BUT
    Itunes can only see the wireless speakers when another airplay device (my iphone) pairs and PLAYS via the wireless speakers. THEN Itunes shows the airplay icon, I can then pair my PC to the wireless speakers, connect (says can't play audio because speakers are already paired), disconnect iphone airplay and then the PC connects and can play through wireless speakers.
    This is a long process, some sort of glitch etc. and I figure it's an airport express thing maybe that is not announcing itself on the WIFI until it pairs to my iphone, or maybe it's a pc problem that my airplay networking via my PC is not announcing itself properly to bonjour WIFI ?
    Hopefully someone can help me.
    Thanks,
    Laurent

    Open control panel.
    Choose Network and internet
    Select the VIEW NETWORK STATUS TASKS under NETWORK and SHARING CENTER section
    Choose wireless Network Connection or something similiar. If connected with ethernet then select it and press right button.
    Click the properties button
    Find Internet ''PROTOCOL VERSION 6(TCP/IPv6)''  anduncheck it, then click OK.
    Click CLOSE
    Restart your PC and try.
    Reason For Problem
    When u will use ipV6 , you have to setup your router and lan/wifi in ipv6 mode. Then bejour pass sound through ipv6 but when you use 2 mode ( ipv4 and ipv6 ) together benjour gets confuse some time it pass through in ipv6 and sometime ipv4 .if your router setup is ipv4 then, when banjour pass sound through ipv6 you will not see airplay button in itunes.
    Hope it's clear to everyone .

  • I can't get my macbook to access shared files on a windows computer when it's connected through a wireless access point.

    I recently bought a Netgear Wireless Access Point to use in the office so we can have a wireless network.  I configured the wireless network, and I am currently connected to the internet.  However, I no longer can access the shared files on the Windows computers like I could when I was hardwired in with an ethernet cable.  I've disabled all of the internal firewalls on all of the computers (and there's no firewall built into the WAP), all the computers are on the same workgroup, and I've tried accessing the computer with the shared files directly via the IP address using the instructions found here http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8849.html. 
    My computer sees that the other computers on the network are there.  They show up in the network view from the finder.  However, when I try to connect to them, it tells me the connection failed.  When I click connect as, it says:
    "Connection Failed
    "The server “PC-ASSISTANT” may not exist or it is unavailable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again."
    When I try to connect via the "connect to server" on the finder, I type in "smb://10.0.0.103/Word Processing"  It tells me:
    "There was an error connecting to the server “10.0.0.103”. Check the server name or IP address, and then try again.
    If you are unable to resolve the problem contact your system administrator."
    I have no clue what the problem is. I'm not really an IT person or a networking guru.  Can someone please help?

  • Airplay icon not showing up on iTunes on Windows, but it is showing up on other devices

    I haven't used airplay in a while (few weeks), but went to play some music and icon is not populating. I have the latest version of iTunes and it might be the issue. Firewall and router are not the issues. It works on my iPad, iPhone, etc.
    I am sick of continuously having issues with Apple and these ******** problems? Why must I pay for a product that will fail to work?

  • HT204291 AirPlay icon never shows

    Is it just me or does AirPlay not work? I have 2 iPhones and my wife and I both have iPads that don't display the needed icon-please help!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Have you made sure that all the devices are on the same network. You might try restarting the Apple TV, the iOS devices and your router.

    has anybody been able to get Airplay to work from mini ipad with apple tv?

  • My 7th gen ipod nano wil not show up on my laptop when I plug it in and neither will my brothers new ipad,they don't come up in my computher either and I've installed the new itunes twice but still no change,I really need to get this working,Please help

    I need help

    Thanks for a reply
    The cable that I'm using came with my 5th gen nano. The 6th gen Ipod shows that it's connected but the computer doesn't see it, so I don't think that it's the cable.
    I did try this before when looking at the troubleshooting guide and nothing happens. It just resets and then the Ipod screen tells me that it's connected to the computer. It still is unseen by Itunes and no where to be found in my computer.
    I don't have another computer to plug it into at the moment but I may be able to visit a friend that owns a decent PC in a few days. If that doesn't work out I will be getting a new lap top in a week and I'm hoping that it will work on that, but it won't be a Mac. So, let's say it works when I plug it into one of these computers, should I reset my Ipod from there or is there something else I should do?

  • Airplay icon not working on any devices now...

    My TECH:
    ATV3
    iPad 3
    iPhone 5
    Internal Airport Internet Sharing
    iMac 11,3
    I'm getting extremely frustrated with how my ATV3's Airplay function is up and down for working. This has happened before and after the i0S6 updates...
    Basically, I can never get the Airplay icons to show up on my devices. I have to restart my computer, the ATV, my devices and sooner or later one of them will work. But now they absolutely do not show up.
    I have two Itunes account (US/JP) I don't think that should be a problem. Is there something in the Internet Sharing Options I'm not doing right?
    Any help soon would be greatly appreciated as I use the AirPlay for demonstration and NOTHING is working. 

    So I tried to do a restore via Itunes.... and now it's this endless cycle of plugging it back into the TV and it telling me to plug it back into Itunes. Restore again... Repeat.....
