IPhone mirroring switch missing

I have an iPhone 4S  IOS 6.1.3 and an Apple TV (2nd ogeneration) with TV software 5.3 (6105)
I have rummage through many posts, but have found no solution to the missing mirroring switch.
On my iPhone 4S, I scroll to the left and find the volume bar with the AirPlay icon, But when I push Apple TV there is no switch to change to mirroring!
I have the AirPlay icon which shows iPhone, Apple TV to and my DENON (AVR – 1912)  but again,  the mirroring option is missing under Apple TV.m
I can:
Use display mirroring with my Mac mini server late 2011 edition
Stream music and videos from iTunes And  the iPhone 4S (under movies)  and again, the Mac Mini has no problem with mirroring.
My wireless network comes from my Apple Airport extreme base station  and my iPhone 4S is connected to the same.
I've spent four hours on this, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Vernon,
Thank you for providing the details about the issue you are experiencing.  It sounds like you are missing the mirroring switch when trying to AirPlay from your iPhone. 
I recommend following steps in the tutorial below to address an issue like this (you can skip step 2 "Recharge iPhone" because it's not related to this issue).  I specifically think resetting the iPhone will help if you have not tried that already:
To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • IPhone Sound Switch

    Is it possible to switch off the little upper button (soundswitch) on the side of my iPhone completely, so that my iPhone is switched on always?
    I do miss many calls because this switch switches off many times without
    knowing it.

    No, it is not possible to disable that switch 'in software'.

  • My instagram app icon on my iphone 4 is missing. When I go to the app store and try to reinstall it, it says open. When i search for it on my phone it can't find it? What should I do?

    My instagram app icon on my iphone 4 is missing. When I go to the app store and try to reinstall it, it says open. When I search for it on my phone it can't find it? What should I do?

    Make sure your phone is connected to the computer and iTunes is open
    1. Visit Instagram.com from your computer web browser
    2. Click "Download in the app store"
    3. It will download and show up in your iTunes
    4. Highlight and sync the app to your iPhone (note: it will not show up on your phone, even after it says syncing is complete).
    5. In iTunes, select the Instagram icon and click "Remove" or "Uninstall"
    6. Click Accept and Uninstall when it asks you to confirm as it will remove instagram and its data from your iPhone
    7. Disconnect the phone from the computer
    8. Manually reboot the phone after exiting all apps
    9. Upon re-start, you will be able to access the app in the App Store, and install it

    Try this First...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

  • Has anybody experienced the iPhone off switch not working all the time.

    I have an iPhone 5, it's about 16 months old and it has experienced an annoying issue.  The off button does not work all the time, sometimes I have to press it multiple times and other times it just works.  The worst case is when it does not work at all, very frustrating.  I didn't expect this type of issue for a phone that is not even a year and a half old.
    I did some searching on the internet and there are 2 schools of thought, the first is that this is a hardware fault and Apple know about it but won't admit it because it would cost them too much to repair/replace phones with the issue.  The second school of thought is that it is a software issue and a backup/reset/restore will fix it; I tried doing this but it did not resolve the issue.
    Further digging seemed to suggest that it was really a hardware fault and the only option was to get a refurb from Apple for a ton of money, not cool.
    Anyway, if anyone has any more information that could help me resolve this issue I would greatly appreciate it.

    @diesel vdub, thanks for your suggestion, I setup an appointment with the Genius Bar and found out in about 5 minutes that everything I have read up on so far is true.
    Firstly the technician admitted that there is a sporadic fault on the iPhone 4s and iPhone 5 switches, something to do with the design of the switch that included a rubber element that rolls up (whatever that means) and causes the switch to fail. He then indicated that the iPhone 5s does not have the issue because the switch has been completely redesigned.
    Since I was stupid enough to not take out the extended warranty the only options he gave me were to purchase a new phone or to get a refurb for $269, not cool. Why would anyone think that a phone would not work correctly for 2 whole years when the phone only cost about $600!
    Since I have about 7-8 months left on my phone contract I am not prepared to pay for either option.  I find it amazing that a phone can develop this type of issue in such a short time and then expect the customer to pay for their failures.  Apple supposedly sells a very high quality product for a very high price, looks like they have taken a step back from this philosophy.
    I am disappointed in the options that he gave me (I don't blame the technician) but I suppose I expected more from Apple in terms of quality and service.

    If they were in your camera roll when you lasted backed up your phone, restoring the backup should recover them.

    Hello there, Abomosa.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some practical steps to try for troubleshooting issues with an application not performing as expected:
    iOS: Understanding multitasking
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4211
    When performing Step 2, I would recommend closing all applications that are running. If you perform Step 3 and the issue persists, you may want to try resetting as well:
    If an app doesn't respond to your input, or doesn't perform as expected, do the following, testing after each step:
    Check for app updates.
    Force the app to close.
    Restart your device.
    Update your iOS device.
    Learn more about troubleshooting apps.
    Additionally this article offers some great information for Display issues as well:

    If you find the issue is still unresolved that same article offers the following:
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

  • Does anyone know why my iphone keeps switching all of my alert tones and ringtones assigned to contacts? i restored it and it still keeps doing it and now when ever i get a txt or a phone call the tones just sound terrible. how do i fix this?

    does anyone know why my iphone keeps switching all of my alert tones and ringtones assigned to contacts? i restored it and it still keeps doing it and now when ever i get a txt or a phone call the tones just sound terrible. how do i fix this?

    Your only chance is setting it up as new device without using the latest backup afterwards, which you already did.
    If this does not work, you should get it serviced:

    See: Resolve iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
    That error usually means that your computer antivirus is blocking the update.
    It can also mean that your phone was jailbroken, or your computer was used to jailbreak some iOS device in the past.

  • Iphone 4 switches off

    my iphone 4 switches off when i insert the sim. dont know what to do??

    Just want to inform you, that you are not alone. I wish to report the same problem. My brand new iPhone4 can not be switched on in the normal way. I have to press the on/off button and the home button for 10 sec. Phone restarts with the apple logo, than operates normally as long as i keep it awake. When i switch it off, it can be switched on for only 1 min. After 1 min it can not be switched on again, it has to be restarted by pressing the on/off button for 10 sec to restart it from scratch. This must be a serious hardware/software problem. Phone is not usable, I have to return it to the provider (T-Mobil Germany).
