Ipad 4 airplay dropping link to AppleTV when streaming from Safari

When using Safari to view video, and Airplay to show it on my TV via an AppleTV, it drops the link every few minutes. It does not happen if I'm watching a video on an app, only with Safari.
I have the latest iOS on my iPad (7.1), and the latest AppleTV software as well (6.1).
Any suggestions?

Why does the connection drop every other second when streaming from iplayer through safari to apple tv?

I am trying to listen to iplayer radio through apple TV from my macbook air. When I switch back to just using the macbook the stream is consistent and works well but when I switch to airplay mode the sound stream literally drops in and out every other second. Ha! I have just gone into iTunes and I have the same issue!?
I have checked for software updates on both apple devices and restarted my router but still I have the same issue.
This is really annoying as this is the main reason I got apple TV! Can anyone help??

This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs?

When I open Safari on my iPad 2 and browse for a while, when I close safari on the background home of the iPad if leaves the imprint of the address bar at the top and down the side of my home background!?

Ok so,
When I open safari on my iPad 2 and browse for a while, when I close safari on my background of the home if leaves the address bar imprint and also down the side of the background it leaves white lines from the web browser. I've also noticed it when using various apps aswell. It's not just safari. I've also tryed different background images and it still does it!
Any help?
Thanks Natalie

Try this - 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

Why cant I send emails, or open folders, from my Outlook email when using ipad. My Outlook is functioning normally when accessed from laptop.

Why am I unable to send emails or open folders from my Outlook email when using my iPad? My Outlook is functioning normally when accessed from my laptop. This problem has been going on for three days now - everything was functioning normally before. I have looked at the standard troubleshooting suggestions provided by Apple, but they do not appear to cover this eventuality. I should be most grateful for any help.

Video Playback Pauses when streaming from iTunes to itunes

Hi,
I have a 2011 iMac running OS X Mavericks Server and I use this as my main iTunes library computer. I also have a 2013 (latest model) MacBook Air running Mavericks. My WiFi network comprises of 2x Airport Express's, both the latest models and configured for both 2.4ghz & 5ghz frequencies.
Using Home Sharing, I like to stream video from my iMac's iTunes library to my MacBook Air. The problem is that playback pauses every few minutes. The only way to resume playback is to close the video window and open the video again. This problem occurs regardless of video quality (SD, 720 or 1080) and on both the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz wifi settings... On the odd occasion this problem doesn't happen at all.
I experienced this problem before upgrading to mavericks so I don't think its mavericks related. And I don't experience this playback issue when streaming to ipad mini, iphone, or apple tv... It only happens when streaming from imac to macbook air...
Please help if you have a solution.

Try:
ffmpeg -i rtsp://localhost:8554/test.sdp -acodec copy -vcodec copy -re -f flv "rtmp://168.187.121.71/livepkgr/mystream&adbe-live-event=liveevent"
I don't strream ffpmeg from my source, but I stream h264 from my source, and this works when transcoding.
Hope this helps!

ITunes purchased videos and all DRM movies will not play on iOS 8 devices when streamed from an external drive (or streamed from other wireless devices). Any solution in sight?

Video streaming of DRM movies, purchased from iTunes and other vendors, to any iOS device is not working.

I am not sure if you really understand the issue at hand. Possibly that you are just scanning, not reading the whole text, or simply that you just want to close a thread with your last words or derail it for whatever strange reason. So far you have been more destructive than helpful, but again this could be ignorance at best.
If you would have had the decency to read the entire thread you would have come to the conclusion that every manufacturer, I came across, has posted FAQ's to this issue but Apple. Find a short excerpt below:
SeaGate http://knowledge.seagate.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/006135en?language=en_US <http://knowledge.seagate.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/006135en?language=en_US> Playing DRM (Digital Rights Management) protected movies in Seagate Media App Information regarding remote streaming of DRM protected movies. Most forms of DRM (Digital Rights Management) will prevent playing movies on unauthorized devices or from remote storage hosted on wireless drives or NAS drives(Seagate Wireless, Seagate Wireless Plus, Seagate Central or Seagate Personal Cloud). Movies purchased from iTunes can be streamed to iOS 6 and iOS 7 devices which were authorized from remote storage (the video could be selected in Seagate Media App and would be played in a Safari browser), however in iOS 8 this has stopped working. A bug has been filed with Apple, however this functionality has not been restored. Therefore, DRM protected movies purchased on iTunes can no longer be played on devices running iOS 8.

Here are the remaining issues that we are aware of in the iOS 8 general release: • Video streaming of DRM movies (purchased from iTunes and other vendors): iTunes purchased videos and all DRM movies will not play on iOS 8 devices when streamed from AirStash (or streamed from other wireless devices). These movies are digitally protected and the AirStash app sends them to the Safari browser to play (which works for all prior iOS versions). However, in iOS 8, Safari will no longer allow DRM movies to play. These movies will play when the video is transferred to the iPhone/iPad and played in the Apple's Video App or the corresponding App from the vendor.

If this is the case and Apple will not address this issue or fix it since Apple believes that movies should be protected this way, you need to let the community know that movies are restricted this way.

Audio skips when streaming from the internet (pandora/grooveshark).

I'm using airport extreme, wired connection, to a macbook pro (2011) and mac pro (2009). audio skips on both devices when streaming from pandora or grooveshark. problem has persisted through system upgrades, clean installs etc... Problem persists through different web browsers (Firefox/chrome/safari)
Ironicaly, Itunes radio does not skip, neither does netflix.
I have seen COUNTLESS posts regarding this problem from many different APPLE users. I would love to see apple address this problem...

Your first step is to determine if there is an issue with this specific movie or if it's a universal problem. Does ANYTHING from the MBP provide both sound and video?
Another thought is DRM coding but that should affect both video and audio. If the movie has DRM coding and your television does not, then the movie won't play. I'm not an expert but I don't think that that's your problem because you do get the video.

My apple Tv has audio problems when streaming from my NAS server.

My Apple TV has audio problems when streaming from my NAS server or computer and even internet. I can hear the click sound it makes when you click on the icons, but when the movie starts there is no audio. This even happens when using XBMC. I have HMDI directly to my TV suing Apple TV 2. I have tried resetting, turning off both TV and Apple TV, and changing the HDMI cable. It is driving me nuts.

XMBC requires a hack, we cannot help with hacked devices.

How to fix problems with AppleTV disconnecting suddenly from when streaming from iPhone or iPad

My AppleTV suddenly gets disconnected from streaminng when I use iPhpne or iPad. This didn't occur first 6 months from purchasing the item but now that my AppleTV is about 1.5 yr old, it happens pretty frequently and it really is annoying, when you try to watch 1+ hour long shows through streaming (AirPlay). Anyone know how to fix this problem? Note: this is not related to my wifi connection as other things with wifi works just fine when this is happening to my AppleTV. Thanks!!

That doesn't rule out a network issue.
Reboot ATV and router, make sure router is up to date.
Try Ethernet
Go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC) to get a report of the network, look for signal strength and noise

IPad 3 very hot w battery drain when streaming AirPlay!

Why does my iPad 3 get very hot and battery drains very quickly only when streaming with AirPlay?

Just in case anyone else is experiencing the same or similar scenario that I was (see first post), turns out that the Apple Care Geniuses determined that the PMU (Power Management Unit - I think the "U" is for "unit" anyway), was corrupted or not working properly, so too much power was being used for tasks that shouldn't have used up so much power.
They replaced my unit, it may or or may not be a refurbished unit, although it looks new and was manufactured on a later date than the one I brought in.
The Geniuses were very helpful and didn't just turn me away saying to "turn down the brightness or turn off WiFi when not in use" which I do anyway.

Picture not playing on apple tv when streamed from iPad

I just purchased the descendants on my iPad and it will only play audio when I stream it to the apple tv using AirPlay? however all of my other films I have purchased work. Can you help?!!

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

TOC in PDF does not include Link OBJR tags when exported from InDesign

I'm using InDesign CS6 to export a book file to a tagged PDF. When I run the accessibility checker in Acrobat 9, I get errors about items not being contained in the Structure tree. These missing items are links for the TOC and the Index page numbers. When I look at the tags, the Link OBJR tag is missing for these elements. I can't possibly manually add them all in. Other links e.g. cross-references, hyperlinks, automatically include these Link OBJR tags when exported. Why does the TOC and Index not do so?
I've asked this question in the InDesign Forum and no one seems to know. If I don't put these tags in, what does that mean for accessibility of the document?
Thanks for your help

Glad you found something that worked. For the future ... I found that if you create the PDF from BOOK and following these steps you can get the hyperlinks to automatically tag. This will work if you are getting editable hyperlink boxes for the TOC -- I find that it is creating these (although I could swear it didn't earlier). Anyway:
1. Select all chapters in the book and create PDF with hyperlinks and bookmarks. Save as TEST.PDF
2. Open the PDF and in the Pages Panel extract the page or pages containing the the TOC from the PDF. Save this as TOCtest.pdf
3. Delete the Tags from the TOCtest.pdf file -- in the Tags Panel, select the Root tag, right click and select delete
4. Select Add Tags to Document to this same file.
5. Examine the tags to see if all the OBJLINKs are tagged. Repeat steps 3 and 4 again (sometimes it doesn't autotag correctly the first time). You may have to manually correct some of the structure -- headings and/or artifacts on these pages.
6. Save again.
7. Go back to the main document TEST.PDF -- delete the TOC page or pages from that document (assuming you didn't when you extracted.)
8. On the pages panel, Insert from file and choose TOCtest.pdf -- insert before the first page.
9. This will bring in the newly tagged TOC and it's tags HOWEVER the tags will be out of order in the tags panel. They will be at the bottom and you will need to find them and MOVE them where they should be.
Still more effort than you should have to but it worked for me.
Not sure how to record a bug with Adobe, but my testing in CS5 shows that this is NOT a new problem. CS5.5 did the same thing for me.

I can not see video on my apple tv when streaming from my ipad

Curious what I can try. I am trying to watch a vidoe off my ipad using apple tv and all I get is the audio. I am streaming from Amazon Prime.

--Not sure if they still do but Amazon Prime used to block video Airplay, only transmitting audio I thought they'd changed this but that may have been another provider.
Is your Amazon Prime app up to date?

HT204291 Airplay skips when streaming from my Macbook Pro

Hey!
Im finding ever since i recently purchased my newest Apple Tv unit that whenever i stream from my macbook (mirroring) it skips, both audio and video. I have several other apple tv devices throughout the house and they all work fine when doing the same thing. The device with the problem is located in my living room, perhaps 4 metres from the wireless internet station. Its the closest in proximity out of all the apple tv's.
Any help resolving this issue would be great! If theres is any details that i need to provide just let me know.
Thanks.

Hello!
You have a box you can check over at: "Apple menu > System Preferences > Displays"
"show mirroring options in the menu bar when available"
Here's the manual from Apple: About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X - Apple Support
If that's not the solution: try unplugging all your routers/modems/extenders, etc from power for a minuten and plugging them back in. Sometimes routers 'think' you have a new machine after upgrading the OS and erroneously block it from some network communication ports.

Apple TV blurry black screen when streaming from iMac?

My Apple TV shows a black blurry screen when trying to stream from my 2013 iMac. ATV works perfectly with iPad/iPhone but not iMac. Audio from iMac is fine, just no video. Both products are entirely up to date as far as software goes and restarting both + wifi hasn't achieved any results. Any **** would be appreciated, thanks.

I've found out it is an Mavericks 10.9.2 and 10.9.3 failure! Online I have found more people with the very same Problem, and all of them are running 10.9.2/3 - ON THEIR IMACS (different Models)!
My Apple TV and Streaming Services were functioning just fine 2-3 Monts ago, the only thing that changed was Updating my iMac Mid 2011 to 10.9.2 -> Then i've got the black screen when streaming, could not activate DisplayMirroring, when i played something in itunes or VLC the sound went through AppleTV but no video.
Then have checked it with iPad 2 = OK, iPhone 5 = OK, MBP Early 2008 with SnowLeopard = OK,
so i decided to Install an 10.9 on an external drive - and guess what? It works! Tried to Update (ComboUpdate) to 10.9.1 and it was still OK, got the BLACK SCREEN after ComboUpdate 10.9.2, and tried to Install 10.9.3 just to see if it will solve the problem -> NOT
this must be a joke!
