ITunes Air Play Not Working

Windows 7 - iTunes 12
iTunes has no issues and plays all content well
I am trying to stream content to an Apple TV (latest generation I think, I just got it from Staples)
I've removed iTunes, including all libraries, registry entries, and all related folders or programs.  I've disabled iPV6 on my PC, I've configured the router to work with iPV6, rebooted EVERYTHING, and even hard rest my router.  I've created a new user and installed iTunes.  Home Sharing is active on EVERY device I have using the EXACT SAME Apple ID.  I've even tested iTunes on my network on multiple machines, all to no avail.  The TV has the latest software.  I've restarted it, I've reset it.  I can stream and mirror using Air Play to my HD TV using my iPhone or iPad Air.  iTunes Air Play seems to be the one thing I can't do..  I'm at a loss and now I'm ready to throw this thing against the wall.
After I activated my TV I noticed what I now know to be the Air Play icon in iTunes, but I'm a little afraid I may have clicked something which now makes it stay hidden, but after the removal of iTunes and re-installing it, I doubt it.  Please tell me what I need to do to make it work.

I unplugged the ATV2 and disconnected it from the HDMI. I once again turned the homesharing off and on in my iutnes ( but see no icon on the side bar) Then I reconnected and the menu of ATV it showed my library on the TV screen. I clicked on it. It said is was loading for a while then it said "Could not connect to Sharon's library". My itunes is open and it said make sure you are on the same network. Frustrated and lost. Ideas?

  • I have changed my internet connection to Huawei e586 modem 3g 4g wireless modem my Air Play not working any more

    I have apple TV 3rd generation it use to work fine through the previous modem(THOMSON TG585 v7)
    I have changed my internet connection now using Huawei e586 modem 3g 4g wireless modem
    At the moment There is internet connection in the apple TV  I can manage only through the apple remote. But I can’t  AIR PLAY or mirroring from iphone
    I can see the AIR Play but I can’t play any music or video in the apple TV. Also I am sure I have activated the home sharing in  I tunes/Remote app/apple TV
    Personally I think because the connection setting,but I do not know how to fix it can someone advise please?

    MOG,
    I have a similar problem with this HG8245, but I can't even see the airplay icon in my iOS devices nor my MB Pro. However, I discover by accident that it works very well if I connect the ATV through the wifi interface (tested with my iPhone 4 and iPad 3Gen both w/iOS 6.0.1, and my MB Pro w/OS X 10.8.2). But as soon as I connect the ATV through the ethernet port, it disappears from all my devices.
    So my guess is that there is some issue (i.e. undocumented filtering)  between the wifi and the ethernet interfaces. I have reviewed the HG8245 configuration  but I haven't found how to solve this. Have you figured out how to solve it? I will try to use some port scanner to see if there is some difference im using the wifi and the ethernet ports and will post the findings.

  • Air Play not working on my Apple TV since I updated my software to 7.0(6897.5)

    I cant get my Ipad, Iphone or MBP to connect anymore it says "An error occurred AirPlay device “etc”. The network connection timed out. All of my devices are on the same network the network connection test has passed I have full bars WiFi signal strength Im getting 60Mbs down and 20Mbs up all of my devices have the airplay icon and displays my apple tv name they just wont connect has anyone else had these issues. With Apple Tv software 7.0(6897.5) and devices running IOS 8

    I believe I have already replied to this in your Spanish question but here it is in English:
    The reason is because Yomvi are not allowed to show their content via the AppleTV as their official page on the App in iTunes states.
    This is another step backward for Spain as this type of restriction only encourages people to get content illegally.
    The only way around it in your case is to use an older version of the Yomvi App (that permits Airplay).
    Hope this helps.

    Hi Jbierrie,
    There is an issue with Photoshop specifically related to recent updates in which causes the licensing to revert to trial after a certain number of launches (typically 2-3).
    The current workarounds are to either:
    - Sign in with your Adobe ID again every few launches
    - Uninstall Photoshop CS6 and then reinstall it but don't install any of the updates
    The issue with the updates is planned to be fixed in the coming weeks. Sorry for the inconvenience.

  • HT204406 iTunes Match is not working on my iPhone 4S after installing iOS 6.  I finally see a list of artists, but the songs are all empty and will not play, and no play lists are present.

    iTunes Match is not working after the iOS 6 install.  All music that was previously downloaded is gone.  When the "Music App" is opened, I see a picture of a cloud, and a progress bar that goes nowhere.  Then it goes away.  No playlists are present.  It shows artists, and albums, but all songs are empty. Nothing plays.
    Is there a fix for this, or are the Apple Servers simply totally overwhelmed, and this is a matter of being annoyed and patient until it finally connects.
    Thanks!

    Same issue for me.
    Some further peculiar things I noticed:
    Directly after updating to iOS 6 I had to switch on iTunes Match again (iPhone settings). Then I realized that my music was gone (as described above).
    Under settings -> usage one could see that the memory space was still occupied by the huge music library (i.e. there where only 9 of 64 GB free). This changed after several hours. Now there are only 9 GB used, the rest is free. So the library is really gone.
    Since then my iPhone continuously downloads some unknown data from the internet (even if all apps are closed and I deselect the use of mobile networks at the several menus in the settings). All apps are closed. The iPhone gets hot and downloads something. It downloaded nearly 400 MB in the last 48 hours via mobile networks. (I got a flatrate, so I don't really care about the data.)
    Does anyone know what this means? Thanks for any help!

  • TS1368 My Itunes match is not working right, it was only able to download 50% of my songs and now I can't play the balance songs.. it's so stupid

    My Itunes match is not working right, it was only able to download 50% of my songs and now I can't play the balance songs.. it has messed up my enitre music library

    Hello Carpathianna,
    No judgment here on the music you listen to, I have that song too in my library. If iTunes is telling you that the song is missing and you purchased it from the iTunes Store, then just delete it from your iTunes library and then download your song again. Check out the articles below for more information.

  • How do i get air play to work from my macbook to apple tv

    How do i get air play to work from my macbook to apple tv? It does work with some programs like itunes but I can't get it to work with safari.

    apple tv does not work in safari. there is no web browsing capabilities on the apple tv..
    however what you are probably referring to is mirroring? iPad 2 and iPhone 4s have mirroring capabilities, so what you have on the screen is exactly what would appear in the apple tv..
    on ipad for example...ignore the settings page. Instead, go to the iPod controls. Double-press your home button to see the multitasking bar, showing all your recent apps. Swipe your finger from right to left for the mirroring icon; you'll see the AirPlay icon. Tap on that, select your Apple TV and toggle the mirror button to 'on'.

  • ITunes RADIO is not working.  "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again." Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so -  iTu

    iTunes RADIO is not working.
    “iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again.” Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so …
    iTunes STORE not “connectable” with my otherwise perfectly-working internet connection, viable, up and running for all other uses.
    Simply put, firstly, I can't connect to the internet when I click on Radio.  People are quite suspicious that this is Apple incompetence or your company's famous arrogance for this commonly-suffered problem that you won't or “can’t” fix.
    Read the many web comments and you won’t be pleased with yourselves: the suspicion is that if you ruin internet radio on iTunes, Apple will somehow make more money on music downloads, etc. Bull.
    Also, thirdly, my old playlist of 20 or so internet radio stations in the Ambient category STILL PLAYS !
    Then fourth, I installed the latest available version of QuickTime Player 7.app Version 7.6.6 but it didn’t solve the problem either. I had QuickTime Player.app Version 10.2, but substituted what Apple website said was the latest, LOWER NUMBERED QuickTime Player version of 7.6.6
    Fifth, I can't connect to iTunes store no matter what I do or what user group's advice I try. So I can’t buy or download anything from iTunes. Bad for business.
    Sixth, I updated to the latest version of iTunes but this weird problem remains. All suggested Apple fixes or user group fixes are useless. Where is Apple’s famous technical competency, vaunted customer support?, and user-friendly product reputation? Get it back, please.
    Solve this problem of yours ASAP for us, your numerous disgruntled, dissatisfied customers of iTunes. You can do better, should, and really –in all fairness- must.
    ===============================================================
    NOTE:  no password for iTunes exists in my Keychain. Is this a problem?
    Apple ACCOUNT ID, and iTunes ID password, works but not to access iTunes with my healthy internet connection.
    Apple store id It works via direct internet connetion but not through iTunes.  Very strange.

  • Automatically Add to iTunes folder is not working in iTunes 10.1

    Hello,
    I have a problem since the iTunes Update 10.0->10.1.
    The "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder is not working in iTunes 10.1.
    Whenever I put mp3-files in that folder, iTunes only adds these files when I start iTunes. I put some new files in this folder and nothing happens. Only when I restart iTunes the mp3s are added to my library.
    Greetings
    Thomas

    It always worked that way. iTunes only acts on that folder if iTunes is running. It does not have to be playing, but it does need to be open.
    If you add files to the Automatically Add folder while iTunes is closed, they will sit there until iTunes is restarted.

  • I just downloaded iTunes 11.1 and my iTunes Radio is not working. HELP!

    I just downloaded iTunes 11.1 and my iTunes Radio is not working. When I go to play a station it says "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. You are not authorized to access the requested resource. There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later."

    I've got this from another forum and works perfectly:
    1. Go to iTunes
    2. Log out of your Apple ID
    3. Log back in.

    if your youtube was already running then I would exit out of the application completely by double clicking your home button and then search for your youtube app on the row that will show below and then press and hold down the youtube icon and then click the "X" to exit out of it. Afterwards try to reopen youtube and play a video to see if it works

  • ITunes shuffle is not working anymore

    iTunes shuffle is not working anymore after downloading latest version. The shuffle button is highlighted but it just plays the next track.

    If you need to change the computer that the iPad is synced to then see this user-tip : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
    If you don't have all of your content on a backup that you can copy onto your new computer and into its iTunes (File > Add To Library), then you should be able to copy iTunes purchases from the iPad to it via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases). For content from other sources (e.g. music that you copied form CDs) which you don't have on a backup, there are some third-party programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back from your iPad.
