Missing Airplay Choices on iPad

I have an iPad Air (first generation) that is currently running IOS 8.1.  I also have an iPhone 6 that is also running IOS 8.1.  In my home, I have several Airplay devices available on my network, including an Airport Express (to play music to speakers in kitchen and dining room via a multi zone home audio system), my Airplay enable Pioneer Receiver, a Boxee that has Airplay capabilities as well as an Apple TV I recently purchased.
My iPhone is able to see all of these devices as Airplay options, however my iPad is only consistently able to see the new Apple TV.  I have been able to sporadically have the iPad be able to see some of the other devices (combination of turning of Wifi and back on), but never all of them, nor do the others stay available.  This is particularly frustrating as I've been using Airplay from my iPad for at least the last year to primarily play music to the Airport Express and kitchen and dining room speakers.  Now I'm no longer able to do this.
I've reset the network settings on the iPad, restarted my wireless router and restarted the Airport Express.  I have confirmed that the iPad is on the same wireless network (only one I have).
Has anyone else experienced this type of behavior in IOS 8.1 on the iPad?  Anyone have any good suggestions of the best way to attempt to get this resolved?
I'm thinking I may backup my iPad and then wipe and restore it to see if that helps.
Any thoughts or comments are greatly appreciated.

Well, went home for lunch and brought my iPad.  Sure enough, as you suggested, scrolling the list did present all of my expected available choices for AirPlay devices.
Wow, do I feel silly for not even trying that, though that does seem to be different behavior than previous version of IOS and there is no real indication from the UI that you can scroll the list.
Thank you very much for this solution.  Maybe at least my experience will provide someone else with this simple solution.
Regards,
Henry

  • After using Apple TV with my iPad the Apple TV location disappears from available Airplay Choices

    I have two Apple TVs one in the bedroom and one in the living room. The living room location seems to come and go from the iPad2s Airplay menu. Restarting the Apple TV has no effect. I am able to use the living room with Airplay but then it disappears from the choices available for Airplay on my iPad.
    Help,
    Dave

    I get this all the time w two ATV on the same wifi network.
    First called "Apple TV", the second called "Living Room".
    I see on ipad and iphone "Apple TV (2)" as one individual item. It looks like if finds "Apple TV" then finds the second one, but aggregates it into "Apple TV (2)".
    Randomly, it will sometimes show two seperate ATV links in the airplay options, then revert back to "Apple TV (2)" as one option in airplay.
    Is definitley a bug in airplay software.

  • IOS 8 upgrade and now missing airplay icon

    I use AirPlay to stream music from both iTunes and Pandora on my iPhone 5 to an AirPort Express.  After upgrading to iOS 8, I no longer have an AirPlay icon in Control Center.  The AirPort Express and the iPhone 5 are both connected to the same network.  The AirPort Express is very new (purchased new from Apple within the past 90 days).  It all worked great before upgrading to iOS 8

    APPLE...
    The problem of a missing AirPlay icon and missing AirPlay devices has not yet been fully resolved. The variations I've seen (on an iPad 4) are
    1) There is NO AirPlay icon, only AirDrop
    2) The AirPlay icon is there but when you open its popup the local device (iPad) displays at the top of the list followed by one other device. If you now wait the shown device scrolls sideways and shows another available device
    3) The AirPlay icon is displayed and its popup window contains a current list of all available streaming devices. This is what we want!
    HInt: Possibly there is something going on concerning the streaming capabilities of the available AirPlay devices. I've noted that my AppleTV is usually first up when devices start to appear and this offers picture and sound streaming (also screen cloning from suitable devices). After this the audio only streaming devices appear.
    APPLE PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS !

  • How to use Airplay to sync iPad with Apple TV

  • How to disable airplay mirroring on iPad with ios7

    How to disable airplay mirroring on iPad with ios7?

    I've had this problem ever since I was at my friend's house- she has Apple TV- and my iPad connected automatically. So, I have no idea why any of the practical solutions that people think of are not options BUT, in terms of just getting it done, I did figure out a way. The key for me was getting near another Apple TV. I was out of town so I took my iPad to another friend's house who also has TV. Once I was logged onto their wireless network (the same network that their Apple TV is on-- that's how it connected in the first place), then the Airplay icon and options showed up from the bottom-draw menu and I was able to make sure that mirroring was turned off from the Apple TV section and to make sure the selection was on iPad instead. Problem solved. Now whether or not this will stay the same (rather than me having to make sure it stays at this setting everytime I link up to a network that has an Apple TV on it) I don't know. So my advice is find someone with Apple TV and connect to their network with your iPad and then change it.

    airplay icon on ipad is gone, trying to play spotify on my ipad and use airplay  to the Bose unit, it worked yesterday, but today the airplay icon is gone , how do I get it back

    I just had the same problem. Took the first unit back and the problem is still occuring on the second one. I solved it by setting up again with the USB, but it keeps dropping out every few days.

    I have enabled airplay from my ipad to my apple tv and I am only getting the audio and no picture?

    I assume this is using an app.
    Check the developer's website as many only support Audio Airplay.

  • HT201335 I bought an apple TV and when I click on airplay on the apple TV I am unable to find the airplay on my ipad 2, Ipone 5 and Iphone 5S

    I bought an apple TV  today from Dick Smith and when I set it up on our Samsung Smart Tv and clicked on airplay on the apple TV, I was unable to find the airplay on my ipad 2, Ipone 5 and Iphone 5S to pair them. We are unable to find Airplay anywhere on our devices. When scrolling up as requested on most google sites we are able to see everything else but airplay.
    Please help i think our Apple device is faulty.

    Welcome to the Apple Community Natasha.
    Your devices aren't supposed to be visible from the Apple TV.
    Basic AirPlay: Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
    Mirroring: When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), swipe from the bottom of the screen, tap the AirPlay icon and choose your Apple TV from the list of devices (iOS 7 or better) or double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices (pre-iOS7)

  • Can't see the airplay icon on iPad 3

    Can't see the airplay icon on iPad 3 and tried all options on here but still won't appear. Any suggestions.

    Hello there Phillip,
    If sounds like you updated to iOS 8.1.3 and now do not see the AirPlay icon in the Control Center. I would run through the troubleshooting and setup verification. It should get that rectified for you:

  • Comment mettre Airplay sur un iPad 2 ?

    Bonjour j'ai un iPad 2 mais je n'ai pas dessus Airplay mais pourtant j'ai vu que certains iPad 2 avaient Airplay. Alors comment mettre Airplay sur mon iPad 2 ?
    Merci d'avance.

    Bonjour dhelene,
    C'est ne pas possible d'installer iWork de CD.
    The CD version is for Mac OS X and will not work with iOS on the iPad Mini.  You must purchase each part you want from the App Store for the iPad.
