IPad 2 will not mirror on Apple TV

I bought third generation Apple TV for the sole purpose of mirroring FaceTime to my tv.  I have an iPad 2 and the mirroring functionality is delayed by minutes, not continuous and just does not work as advertised. I used an iPad mini using the same Apple TV and works like a charm. All devices have the latest software. Bluetooth is off as I saw on other posts.  The iPad 2 does work with to send music, photos and videos to the Apple TV, but that is not the main use. Extremely disappointed. Will be returning the Apple TV, to perhaps get the wired connection which I know works, but don't want to be tethered. Anyone been successful.

Ok, I have this exact same issue happening here. A friend of mine recently purchased an apple tv(assuming its a 3rd gen since it was purchased new last month). Mirroring with his daughter's 32g white ipad 2 has this same issue. They took the ipad to apple who swapped it put with another white 32g ipad 2 and after testing it also has the same issue. O eliminate network concerns I tested using my personal black 32g ipad 2 and mirroring works perfectly. Very responsive, no delays and clear screen resolution. Testing using my wife's white 16g ipad 2 and it has the same delayed mirroring issue??? Finally testing using my wife's new white ipad mini and it works great and I tested using my iPhone and it also worked.
So in conclusion, out of 4 ipad2s, 1 ipad mini and 1 iPhone 5, only the phone, mini, and 1 black ipad2 works. All on the same network, all testing within minutes of each other. This is not a network issue, it is an issue with the tv. Anyone else have this? Thinking of taking it all to apple tomorrow so they can see it all in action at the Genius Bar.

  • Ipad will not mirror to apple tv

    My ipad will not give me the option to mirror to apple tv.

    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.
    Restart your mobile device.

  • HT201263 None of these answers help my problem.  My ipad will not leave the Apple logo.  I hold both buttons and the screen goes black, then the apple logo immediately pops back up.  I can't do anything because the apple logo just keeps popping back on.

    I haven't been able to find any answers that solve my problem.  My Ipad will not leave the Apple logo.  I hold both buttons and the screen goes black and then the Apple logo immediately pops back up.  I can't get the red slider screen at all.  No matter how many times I hold down both buttons the screen goes black and then the Apple logo pops right back on.

    Before you do anything else, try charging via a wall outlet for a while, since its off. Then try turning it back on.
    When you put the device into recovery mode it allows you to restore the device when no other options work. You do risk losing everything currently strored on the ipad itself. Hopefully you've performed regular backups either via itunes, icloud or both. Evern if you have synced content to either of those, you may not lose everything. All previous purchases have been saved in the itunes and app stores, so you can dowload them again.
    while the ipad is off, press and hold the home button and plug the usb cord into the ipad. You should see a message pop up on the itunes window on your compoter screen that state it has discoverd an ipad in recovery mode.
    You should now be able to restore

  • IPad will not mirror iTunes account on PC

    My iPad will not mirror my music library. Tried deleting all songs in "On this iPad" on my PC. My PC says there are no songs on my iPad but my iPad still has and plays them all.  Rebooted both the PC and the iPad. The setting "Show all music" is in the off position.  Any ideas?

    I didn't get any replies here! In the meantime I went to storage and found music and wiped all my music and am starting over. Will keep you posted

  • My Ipad will not open, the apple remains solid

    My iPad will not open to the apps. I have reset it and the only thing that happens is the Appel appears and then it stays. Any ideas on how to get beyond this point?

    Have you rebooted:  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for about 10 seconds (ignore the red slider) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will [hopefully] restart.

  • HT5622 My iPad will not take my Apple username and password since I upgraded to 7.0.2

    My iPad will not take my username and password since I upgraded to 7.0.2.

    try this
    Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings  (or for network connection issues 'reset network settings').
    (no media or data will be deleted from the device, this will only take a minute).

  • HT201335 Is there a technical reason why the first gen iPad will not mirror?

    I have a first gen iPad running 5.1.1
    I had 5.1 and that did not work either. 
    A new 2012 apple tv and no go on the mirroring. My iPhone 4a mirrors. Why can't the first gen iPad

    I think the newer iPads have a 5 or 5x chip set.  What are they using in the first gen?
    I never thought of my iPad as slow
    I couldn't tell you off the top of my head.
    Yes iPad 1 still seems good for me too, but the 3rd gen is noticeably smoother in use.
    Absolute specs are really irrelevant - Apple have not allowed the iPad 1 to mirror and that's that - pretty much like older Macs pre 2011 not being able to do so due to lack of a CPU feature.

  • HT1212 mini ipad will not get beyond apple screen what can be done?

    This mini ipad has been frozen at the apple screen for 24 hrs.  Every so often it will go to the black screen with the loading/updatiing symbol but it too is frozen
    Can this be fixed?

    Try a reset first. If this doesn't work, post back. You may need to restore your iPad using recovery mode.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • IPad will not load past Apple Logo

    My iPad froze, so I rebooted it by holding the home and power button for 10 seconds. Now, it won't even load past the Apple logo. Please help me!

    If the reset don't work then I think that you may need to contact Apple

  • I have a 3rd generation iPad running iOS7.0.2, and since updating to iOS7, it will not mirror to an AppleTV.  The devices will connect, but the video monitors show only a blank screen.  The AppleTV's work fine with various other iOS & OSX devices. Ideas?

    I have three AppleTV's where I work.  I have two at home.  I have an iPhone 4S running iOS7.0.2 which mirrors smoothly via AirPlay.  I have a 2011 MacBook Pro and a 2011 iMac, both running Mountain Lion, both of which mirror smoothly through AirPlay.  I have a 3rd generation iPad running iOS7.0.2, and since updating to iOS7, it will not mirror.  The iPad will connect to the AppleTV, but the TV's and projectors only show a black screen when connected: the iPad screen looks as it should, except that the transitions become jumpy when connected via AirPlay.  This is true on both networks: at home and at work.  Another gentleman using the network where I work has the most recent iPad, also running iOS7.0.2, and he is having the same problem.  I have tried to "Reset All Settings."  I have tried to "Restore."  Does anyone have any suggestions?  Has anyone else experience difficulty mirroring the iPad through AirPlay since the release of iOS7.0.2?

    No problems exists with the router (on either network described above) or the multiple AppleTV's which are able to mirror multiple other OSX & iOS devices seamlessly. The problem is strictly with the iPad and iOS7.

    Re: AirPlay with AirServer connectivity problem
    Oct 14, 2013 9:43 AM (in response to ceb2652)
    This is an iOS 7 AirPlay mirroring bug...
    To make matters worse, the iPad automatically drops its mirroring session 45 seconds after it auto-locks.
    3-4 mirroring sessions is all it takes for the iPad mirroring to freeze up.
    After this happens, mirroring to an Apple TV only projects a blank screen.
    Once the mirroring is hung, the only way to fix it is to restart the iPad.
    Apple please fix this iOS 7 issue!

  • HT4972 my ipad will not start it has an apple in the center and no matter what I do it will not dispeasr, erase or open

    MY ipad will not start. I can only see an apple in the center.

  • I recently backed up my iPad and then I restored it to factory settings. Now, I want to restore it from the back up that I created, but it will not accept my Apple ID password. Is there any way that I can save my data?

    Hi,
    As I have said in the title, I was supposed to do a restore on my iPad for work. I backed up the device and then I restored it to factory settings as I was instructed. Now that all of that is complete, I tried to restore it from the back up point I created and it will not recognize my Apple ID password.  I really hope that I won't lose all of my data, but I don't know what else to do. I have tried entering my password numerous times. I really hope that someone can help me.

    Restoring an iPad from an iTunes-generated backup should not require an Apple ID password.
    Did you encrypt the iPad backup? If so, then trying to restore will require entering the encryption password.

  • TS5185 My IPAD will not send messages to non APPLE users.

    Today, Christmas Day, while trying to send a message my IPAD wanted me to turn on iMessage. There was no option not to do this. After it was turned on I could no longer send messages to non Apple users. After reading online that I could set send SMS on my IPHONE I did. Now I guess it send everything as an SMS message. Now my IPAD will not send messages to non Apple users. I guess Apple wants us to pick our friends only if the use Apple products. This is about as stupid as it gets. They want us to only communicate with Apple users. The only other option is to turn the feature off. Why have iMessage in the first place.
    So my situation is I can send SMS Messages on my IPHONE. I cannot send any messages to non Apple users on my IPAD and iMessages to my Apple users.
    This kind of stupidity is why I switched from Windows to Apple in the first place. Don't they test anything out anymore at Apple?

    Please don't take this the wrong way, but I think that you might be doing something wrong.
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
    To use Continuity for SMS and MMS with your iPhone and your Mac, iPad or iPod touch
    Your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch need to use iOS 8.1, and your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
    Sign in to iMessage on your iPhone, your other iOS devices, and your Mac using the same Apple ID.
    On your iPhone:
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By, and add a check to both your phone number and email address.
    Go to Messages > Text Message Forwarding, and enable the device(s) you would like to forward messages to.
    Your Mac, iPad, or iPod touch will display a code. Enter this code on your iPhone to verify the SMS feature.
