HT204291 AirPlay mirroring shows small picture on the TV
My HD TV shows a picture not much bigger than the one on my iPad.
Is it on specific content? Have you tried rebooting all devices and making sure they are up to date?

My iPad 4 does not show up on my TV screen when in AirPlay mirroring mode using WiFi. The iPad displays AirPlay set to TV with the Mirroring On (green).
My iPad IOS software is 8.2 and my Apple TV software is at 7.1. The TV displays the Apple Menu. The “Settings” does however displays the General menu allowing me to see:
Apple software: 7.1 (7003)
Apple TV: Model No. A1464, Part No. MD199B/A
Signal Strength shows 5 circles.
It does not display the iPad screen but when I use the BT Sport App I can hear the sound but there is no video. I have searched the internet for a solution to no avail. The problem first arose when the IOS was at 8.1+ but it worked correctly briefly when I updated to IOS 8.2. Can you help please?Welcome to the Apple Community.
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.

Airplay Mirroring shows only black screen on ATV
I have a mid 2011 MacBook Pro and a 3rd generation Apple TV. When I installed Mountain Lion a couple of weeks ago and tried out Airplay Mirroring, it worked fine.
I wanted to try it out again today, but it doesn't work anymore. When switching to Airplay Mirroring by clicking on the icon in the menu bar, the Apple TV turns black and I am getting the color wheel on the MBP ever time I get to the menu bar. The Airplay Mirroring button is unresponsive and the only way to get the color wheel to go away is to restart the MBP.
I've already restarted the Apple TV multiple times, as well as my Time Capsule.
When streaming videos from within iTunes using AirPlay, everything works fine. Also AirPlay Mirroring from my iPhone works fine.
Anyone have any suggestions what could be the cause of the black screen and MBP crash?Just chiming it that I have the very same problem. I bought an AppleTV yesterday. I have an early 2011 MacBook Pro running OS X 10.8.2 (Is that Mountain Lion, or Lion? Whatever, it's the latest OS. Stop with silly names Apple - just versions OK - I digress). I have 2.7 Ghz Core i7 processor and 8GB of RAM. So, I am within specs for AirPlay mirroring.
So, it mirrored once fine. I logged out of the MacBook and into another account, and it would show a blank screen on the TV. Thought it might be something with parental controls or something, so logged back into my account, and now all we get is a blank screen. Reboots of the AppleTV do nothing. Went ahead and installed the latest firmware on the AppleTV.
All other AirPlay devices work fine. I can stream from my iPhones.
This is so not like Apple to have such a buggy feature shipped with a device. I probably wouldn't use it that much, but don't put it in there if it doesn't work right. There are several threads on this topic, so it's not a unique problem.
Also, Photostream for AppleTV is poo poo, too. Another topic. -

Airplay mirroring.
Macbook 2012 retina display. Unable to see desktop on television, audio works perfectly. Both OS on ATV and Mac are running latest versions.
Firewall set correctly (allow incoming...)
When I click mirroring to turn it on, teh Apple TV screen goes blank (from its home setting)
Any help appreciated.Hi!
I figured it out! It was a firewall issue.
I use Handsoff and I checked it before i wrote here. There was no "user defined rule" that denied the communication but when i changed to "All rules" the program displayed several rules regarding AppleTV and its IP.
So if anybody has the same problem make sure you see all rules of your firewall and get rid of the AppleTV related rules generated by the program itself. You dont need to update to the latest iOS on the AppleTV!
I hope that I can help some people with this info to fix the problem. -
I am still having issues with the TOC pictures. I got several chapter/section photos to show up, but can't seem to repeat this success. It is some mystery that happened during a time that I had practically given up. This should be such a simple thing. Drag and place a picture into the placeholder and it shows up in the TOC....right? Help, help help! want to get this thing done and it's taken two days of work just get some of the photos to show up. I am going to have to publish this ibook with no photos in several sections.....why can't this be simple? I have even had someone else spend hours trying to figure this out. This software is such a GREAT idea....come on...help with this little part of it.
I had the same problem myself. I got to the point where I couldn't replace the photo, of a new chapter, in the TOC. What I did was to duplicate an existing chapter that was working and was able to replace it's TOC's photo. I also found that if you try different areas of the photo you can sometimes get it to replace correctly. For example, instead of dragging the new photo to the middle of an existing photo, try dragging it to the right top corner.

HT204291 AirPlay mirroring of my ipad only fills part of my flat screen tv
Hi just trying to get my airplay mirroring to fill my whole flat screen tv....
Welcome to the Apple community.
Airplay mirroring cannot fill your entire screen. The aspect ratio of the iPad is 4:3 whereas the aspect ratio of your TV is 16:9, it just isn't possible for one to fit into the other perfectly. -
AirPlay Mirroring shows scrambled output in guest account
When using Mountain Lion's AirPlay Mirroring in the guest account, all I see on an Apple TV is some flickering scrambled image.
The same issue is observed by one other user on the Net.
The reponse by another user is as follows..
"To be more precise: after using AirPlay Mirroring in one account, one needs to log out that account before one can use Mirroring in another account on that same Mac. The same applies if you happen to use Mirroring in the guest account first, and then leave that account logged in and try to use Mirroring in some regular account."
IS THIS A BUG?i get this flickering from both my machines:
Mini is wired into Linksys Router and Netgear switch
MBP wireless to same router
ATV2 is hard wired into router
both my OSX devices display flickering. IOS devices are all fine.
Any one any idea at all?
i dont have any other accounts on both machines except the admin user account i use for myself -
