Mirroring and AirPlay

Hi members, Just set up a new apple tv selected home sharing on laptop. Atv3 ipad2 iPod touch4g I can mirror my iPad with no problem selecting it by double tapping home button etc AirPlay is enabled on atv downloaded the remotes on both iOS devicses but can't get the iPod to mirror, I only get the popup iPod or atv and can control the atv but as I said wont display the option to mirror the iPod yet the iPad is ok all on the same network any thoughts.

It was clearly listed on the tech specs page:

iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)
Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)

you must not have read that though...

Airplay mirroring and airplay speakers

I would like to set up airplay mirroring so that audio gets directed to my airplay speakers and the images to the TV.
LIke this:
iPhone-->ATV-->Airplay speakers
I can airplay audio through the phone directly to the speakers, and I can also select speakers on the ATV and airplay audio from ATV apps directly to those speakers.. I can also airplay audio only from the iPhone through the ATV to the speakers, as long as I'm not mirroring.
However when I turn on mirroring, the audio always goes right to the TV and not to the speakers. I was told that what I'm trying do cannot be done with Mirroring. Is this right? Has anyone got this setup to work?
Would be nice if I can stream shows from a browser to the ATV and then audio to the Airplay speakers. So far I have not been able to get that to work.
Help or advice appreciated, thanks!
Sam

For what it's worth, I managed a workaround with VLC and Airfoil to mirror a video to Apple TV and send the audio to AirPlay speakers. However, there's still the 2 second delay issue for most other sources, like Chrome and games.
It seems what's missing is a way on the Apple TV to redirect the audio to an AirPlay source while mirroring (holding down select does nothing in this mode, unlike Netflix or Movies where it brings up a source selection menu). It would be SO COOL if this was implemented in a future ATV update - for all of us with projectors out there.

How to create adhoc Wifi Hotspot with iPhone to connect Apple TV for Mirroring and Airplay?

I don't want to use my iPhone to share or tether my iPad or laptop etc. with my cellular data plan.
What I want is to create a hotspot with my iPhone (or iPad) so that I may connect my Apple TV to the adhoc network so I am able to stream video and music from my iPhone to the Apple TV.
I do presentations in front of live audiences and want the ability to mirror my iPad or use Airplay to stream video and photos to the Apple TV without connecting to a public WiFi network.
The apple TV is so small, I just tuck it into my bag with an HDMI cable and I am able to tap into LCD projectors and flat screens and use keynote or video from my iPad so my audiences can see my presentations.
Seems pretty simple. But I cannot activate a hot spot on my iPhone without signing up for AT&T's service. Fact is, I have no need to tether my iPhone or iPad, I just want to create an adhoc Wifi network solely for the use of my Apple TV.
I posted this question to the iPhone discussions as well, but thought someone here has wanted to do the same thing.
Someone suggested just bringing any WiFi router and connecting devices to that. But that's not a solution. It's about mobility and simplicity and not creating a larger footprint.
Thoughts?

I am a presenter and I do what you want to do. I use an apple tv as the presentation device that connects to the projector. The thing that makes it all work together is the Apple Airport Express $99 and looks just like the APple TV but white: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC414LL/A?fnode=MTY1NDA0Mg
Basically you define a wireless network ahead of time (using your iPad or iPhone and the Airport Config App) and let your iDevices connect to it and know the details ahead of time (so they will auto connect later).
You have a couple of options of connecting the airport express to the apple tv. I basically stacked them and used an ethernet cable but you can define the wireless connection also. I then strapped them to the projector (which I travel with) and used an HDMI cable from the apple TV to the projector.
Sometimes I present from my iPad...sometimes I present from my iPhone. Sometimes I present from my iPad but use the remote app on the iPhone to see the next screen. Now with Mountain Lion you could even present with a Macbook Pro (not needed though)
Wanna hear the coolest thing? When I want to demo something on the iPad instead of just showing the screen remotely using Airplay I use an App on the iPhone called Air Camera directed down at my iPad screen. The Air Camera sends the video to the Apple TV using Airplay and people are able to see my taps by seeing my fingers.
Another cool thing in a classroom setting with other iPads you are able to let people know your Wifi password and then display their iPad screen up on a projector to ask a question about something or demo something.
So for the extra $99 dolars for the Airport Express and a few minutes setting it up, wammo you have it!
One last note. If you actually do have wired internet at the podium you can connect it to the WAN port of the Airport express and all your iDevices would in addition have internet access. If you need internet access for all the devices and you are presenting in a place without internet then you have to bring a wireless hotspot in place of the airport express. This works equally well (again just setup the connection from the iDevices to the wireless hotspot ahead of time)
Have fun and good luck!

IPad 2 Mirroring and Airplay

So, I upgraded to iOS 5.1 on my iPad 2 today. I tried to mirror to my HDTV via my Apple TV. I saw the little icon and selected my TV. I did not see anything but was able to hear something. Now I cannot see the icon any more.
Ideas?
Thanks.

I have the same issue with an updated iPad, iPhone 4S and an updated apple tv. The icon isn't available at all on my devices... Did they move it?

Hi Everyone,
hope this message finds you all in time. The recent Apple TV update 5.1 is terrible. Apple knows it is which is why (thankfully for some relentless user -I have no idea who but I believe it was under threat) they have allowed to sign 5.0.2 again which means you can downgrade your Apple TV 2 and 3 to a 5.0.2 version via iTunes. Who knows how long they will keep the window open but I have downgraded my ATV early this morning. I couldn't post this earlier because I was out all day but I am doing it now.
Here's how to do it:
1) Connect your ATV to your computer via a Mini USB (not included with ATV but included with many other electronic devices) - in order for your ATV to appear in iTunes you must FIRST plug the USB cable to your computer and ATV and only THEN plug the power cable.
2) Download your ipsw restore file from Apple.
5.0.2 (ATV 2): AppleTV2,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
5.0.2 (ATV 3): AppleTV3,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
3) In iTunes select yout ATV, hold SHIFT and click on Restore
4) Find and choose the downloaded IPSW file in the Open Dialog Box and hit Next
5) As long as Apple still signs that version the Restore process will begin and will take a few minutes to complete.
Enjoy!

Airplay mirroring and external monitor

I have an Macbook Pro 15 that I just bought. I am airplay mirroring to a external monitor. I have a bluetooth keyboard and touchpad. When I close the lid on the Macbook after I get the mirroring started, the external monitor goes blank. When I open the laptop back up, I cannot get anything on the internal screen. I cannot get it to do anything at all and then I just have to power it down and restart to get anything on the computer screen again. I would like to know if what I am doing is possible? Can you airplay mirror and then close the case on the laptop. THanks

Here is what I just made work for me - and it isn't perfectly what I want, but at least my students will be able to see what I am coding.
In the Accessability Panel's Zoom settings I changed from Full Screen to Picture-In-Picture style zooming.
This works, but I would rather have a full screen zoom.
A side note: The cursor size, and grey scale work, but the color inversion and high contrast settings do not work on the mirrored display.
It seems strange.

HT201335 I found it cost a lot of energy . Is it true? Is there any spec to describe detail power consumption about airplay and airplay mirroring?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The Apple TV uses 6 W, which IMO is hardly a lot of energy.

HT4437 Is it possible to zoom in photos when using airplay? It seems not to work at all. I can only zoom in if i use mirroring and even then i have to reconnect mirroring each time I chage an albumor even go from the photo to the album level.

No.
I find it extremely frustrating that Apple does not care for such an obvious bug affecting one of the basic funcionalities of AirPlay. Unless, of course, if there's something I don't know - but I've done some research and it seems that plenty of people have same issue and no solution is settled.

Mountain Lion, AirPlay Mirroring, and multiple monitors - how to choose display?

I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.1 with two external monitors connected via Thunderbolt. I have a 3rd-gen Apple TV on the same network. I can turn on AirPlay Mirroring and my primary monitor will display on my TV. However, I would like another monitor mirrored instead. I have looked but can't seem to find a setting to choose which monitor is mirrored.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

You can remove the Logmein sound driver.
You will no longer be able to hear your Mac from your remote machine.
Start Terminal and paste:
sudo kextunload /system/library/extensions/logmeinsounddriver64.kext
I did this long time ago because I was having sound problems on Lion.

HT6114 AirPort Utility and AirPlay no longer works after 10.9.2 upgrade.

After upgrading to v10.9.2 last night, iTunes no longer shows my AirPlay speakers (attached to an AirPort Express) as available (other devices on same network see them fine still).
After upgrading to v10.9.2 the AirPort Utility can no longer see/connect to manage the Airport Extreme Time Capsule or the AirPort Express (the Wifi works, I'm associated to the SSID and sufring the web just fine, but I can no longer manage the devices - they don't even show up (marked as 'missing' with the option to 'forget' them in the GUI).

This worked for me.
Joseph Rose's solution (in another discussion) finally fixed Airplay for me. I now have mirroring and extended Airplay functions again. It was a long road, but in the end, removing Air Parrot and Air Display was the solution for me.
Solution:
Ran the Air Display uninstaller that I found by searching in spotlight.
Ran the Air Parrot removal tool & confirmed that the files were deleted based on instructions from their website.
Thanks to all that participated and spent their valuable time offering assistance!

Try resetting the iPad (hold the home and power buttons down until the Apple logo appears).

Airport and Airplay on PC

The airplay Icon on my PC goes on and off... I have an airport express. Is there something to do ?
When I try to make an update on my PC, it says that the windows version is to old... but it uses to work... and it works great with my Ipod.
I have an error message that says -42110 ?

Flixster and AirPlay

Ive been trying to airplay my UV films from the Flixster app on my iPad 4 to my new ATV3. However when i watch a film only the audio is sent to the TV, and the video keeps playing on the iPad. Same happens when i try to watch films through the Blinkbox app as well.
Is there anyway to sort this so the video airplays on the TV as well?

Hey slimnickyy,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are having difficulty with AirPlay. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
