Streaming videos from iPhone 4s via AirPlay is very slow

. I took a few videos with my iPhone 4S when I was on vacation. When I try to stream them from my iPhone to my Apple TV, it buffers extremely slowly. However, when I stream videos from my MacBook Pro to my Apple TV, it buffers very quickly and plays very quickly. Based on that, I'm assuming that there's nothing wrong with my wireless network. So my question is, what could be wrong with my iPhone. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Ok so I've been doing more testing. It's all videos on the iTunes store. Anytime I try to download a podcast or stream it or anything it's super slow. To download an episode of Diggnation it tells me over 2 hours to download but the time keeps climbing and I just stop the transfer.
Some people said it's an Open DNS thing? Maybe it is but it's not computer specific and I couldn't find a way to change the DNS settings in my Airport, only on each computer. I tried deleting PLists and restoring my Apple TV and restoring my Airport and nothing is working.
I don't know if it an issue with me, my ISP or Apple. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

Audio from iPhone/iPad via Airplay skipping on Apple TV

When streaming audio from an iOS device, there is frequent and noticeable skipping to the point that it's unusable. I've recently upgrade Apple TV and moved to a different internet provider and wireless router and am still experiencing the same issue. Streaming video from my MacBook is absolutely fine. Streaming audio is glitchy.
iPhone 4S running latest iOS
iPad Mini running latest iOS
Apple TV current gen running latest OS
MacBook Air (2011) running latest OSX
I've tried to find solutions to this before but eventually give up in frustration. I told myself that it was probably due to my old Apple TV. But now that I've got the current, brand new Apple TV and it's still happening I decided to ask for help.
Has anyone experienced this and found a workable solution?

Hello SebastianTroen,
It sounds like you are seeing these performance issues persist between 2 different versions of the Apple TV. I would recommend that you use these troubleshooting steps from the following article, as it should help you resolve the issue:
iOS: Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4215
Troubleshooting performance issues with AirPlay or AirPlay Mirroring
If you are experiencing intermittent playback or significant network lag with AirPlay or AirPlay Mirroring, it could be due to a weak Wi-Fi connection, interference, or the distance between the Wi-Fi router and your iOS device, Apple TV or AirPort Express.
Try the following suggestions:
Ensure that other devices are not trying to stream to the same Apple TV at the same time.
Ensure that your Wi-Fi router is set up with the recommended settings for the best performance.
Certain external devices, such as microwave ovens and baby monitors, may interfere with a Wi-Fi network. Try moving or disabling these devices.
If possible, try to locate your Wi-Fi router in the same room as your iOS device and Apple TV.
If your wireless and wired networks are the same, try connecting your Apple TV to the router via Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi.
If the Wi-Fi router has an external antenna, check to see that is it connected properly and in good condition.
Use the Wi-Fi network troubleshooting guide to resolve interference and other issues.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Can't stream videos from Iphone 4 or Ipad 3 to apptv 3

Folks need some help- I love Mac and all the products but I am having a bit of an unpleasant experience with my apple tv 3. I have Iphone-4, Ipad 3rd gen, and Apple Tv 3rd gen. I want to use airplay to stream videos from safari or netflix- but! I get a message on my TV that states "Error occured while trying to play this video" And that is all I get. All three are on the same Wi-Fi network. Of note- my Ipad was able to stream for 30 seconds before the error message came up. After that nada.
Thank you in advance for your help

No,you need to buy a new charger.
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

How do I use my iphone to stream videos,games, and music via airplay in itunes?

Hi.
I was looking for an option to use airplay from my iphone to itunes(not apple tv) After searching for a while, i understood that I cannot do that unless I have a apple tv. But when I bought my 5s when it released, I remember playing my videos from my phone to itunes via airplay. But i forgot how I did that. Can anyone please tell me how to do that? Or if any of the recent updates took those features off, is there anyother way I can do that?
Thank you

Normally backups are incremental, and you can only restore the latest. EXCEPT that a backup of an earlier version is archived, and the first backup of the new version is thus complete. You should be able to restore a 6.1.4 backup to iOS 7. Click the Restore Backup button. The dialog that comes up should have a dropdown where you can select a backup to restore. If the old one does not show up it cannot be restored.
However, since you appear to have a Mac, if you use Time Machine you can restore an earlier backup over the current one from your Time Machine history.
You can also back up to iCloud, even if you don't sync to it. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5262
One well hidden feature (for future use) is archiving backups. If you go to iTunes Preferences/Devices, right click on the current backup and choose "Archive". The next backup you make will be a competely new one, and the old one will be preserved and can be restored at any time.

Importing Videos from iPhone 4, via itunes to iPad2 & imovie

After discussions with Apple support today, it appears that i can not import videos i have taken on my iPhone4 to my iPad2 (via itunes) in order to be edited in iMovie.
Reason given was something to do with copyright?!
I find this quite astonishing to be fair based on the iphone 4 being the easier device to carry around and record HD videos on compared to the iPad. i would have thought the integration between the devices and swapping fiels over would have been more straight forward.
This may not be a new issue to some so i am wondering if ther eis a work around? Can i create an imovie doc on my iphone 4 with the relevant videos included and import that file instead so as to do further editing on the ipad?
is there an alternative way of getting my videos i have taken with the iphone4 onto the ipad so i can edit in imovie?
Many thanks in advance for any responses
Cheers

>Any fixes?
Don't use WiFi for streaming video. It is even worse for AirPlay since you are using bandwidth twice as it sends data from the iOS device to the router and then from the router to ATV. Use an wired connection to go to ATV. Even the high end consumer grade WiFi equitment is not great at doing streaming video.

AirPlay to stream videos from websites

I have an iPhone 4 that I just recently upgrade the iOS to 4.3 and I also have atv2 that it upgraded as well. I'm trying to stream some videos from a website and it only let's me stream the audio but ther is no picture on the tv. I thought with the new update of the iOS 4.3. Apple said that it was able to stream videos from websites and third party apps. Does any one know how this suppose to work?

The website must be AirPlay compatible to get both video and sound. YouTube should be. The same applies to 3rd party apps. A 3rd party app must be updated by the app developer to be AirPlay compatible.

Streaming video from an iPad mini to a MacBook Pro using Airplay

How do I stream video from my iPad to my MacBook Pro? I want to watch the video content of my iPad mini on my MacBook Pro. I have a mac-based application called "Reflector." and it says an iPad can stream video using Airplay, but I have no idea how to start Airplay (or cause it to stream video to the MBP).
Thanks,
Tom

I can't seem to edit my old message so I will add as a reply. I think my question may not be very clear. Here is an image of my iPhone screen (running 7.1.2 and I'm sorry it's so big): (Continue reading below the big image.)
But as you see there is no Airplay button beside the AirDrop button on the control panel. I see this same control panel on all my iDevices (or at least there is no Airplay icon on any of them). How do I get this icon to appear. By the way, I am using a Cisco wireless router - not an airport router (could that be the problem?)

Hello. I've Apple TV 3rd gen and MacBook Pro 2013 all with latest updates. AirPlay works fine till I don't start streaming videos from YouTube. After that AirPlay icon from MacBook menu bar simply disappears. Could some help. I'm using 2 Mbps internet connection.

Same issue here- I can airplay my amazon prime library just fine from my iphone 5 but on my macbook- (mavericks, 15 inch 2013 retina with quad core i7, nvidia 650 M and SSD) it just sputters and lags.
I have noticed web video is considerably worse than local content, giving me pauses of up to 2 or 3 seconds in which video stops but audio continues in the amazon player. Youku video, however, seems relatively stable. Our subscription speed is 25 mbps, so that should be plenty to stream SD video from Amazon and doesn't account for why it would be nice and stable from the iphone, but not the mbp.
Playing light, locally hosted steam sidescrollers like Limbo is better but gives periodic drops in framerate on the Tv. when mirroring the framerate remains steady on the MBP screen.
Games airplayed from my iphone seem relatively stable, though with a noticably lower framerate on the TV than on the phone.
It seems these issues have abated considerably since yesterday's Apple TV update, but are still curious nonetheless and I'm not sure that the update yesterday was specifically meant to address those issues or if I'm just getting a time with less network interference now.
Comcast recently installed a new router/modem/phone combo, replacing our old separate modem and router setup. I'm going to test if putting the network on a different channel helps.

Is there a way I can stream video from my 2012 AirMac to the Apple TV using airplay and at the same time stream the audio to an air speaker?

Is there a way stream video from a 2012 MacBook Air to a TV using Apple TV and at the same time steam the audio to an air speaker. Also the same question but using an ipad

You can try one thing. Follow these steps:
1. On your Mac, turn on AirPlay Mirroring and connect it to the Apple TV, so audio and video will stream from the Apple TV.
2. Turn off the sound of the TV where you have connected the Apple TV.
3. Then, make sure that you have turned on the AirPlay speakers. Then, open System Preferences > Sound > Output, and choose the external speakers, so sound will stream from these external speakers.
This should work correctly

When I stream videos from my laptop onto my Apple TV via my iPad 2 using the Air Video app/server the video plays great however when I pause the video the Apple TV reverts back to the home screen within a few seconds and then when I want to restart watching the video I have to re-buffer the video. Is there any way I can stop the Apple TV from reverting back to the home screen when I pause the video I’m watching?

HT201317 how do I automatically stream my videos from iPhone to my macbook pro?

how do I automatically stream my videos from iPhone to my macbook pro?

You may consider doing that, it largely depends on what you want the movie for once you have it on your Mac, sending it to YouTube is likely to cause it to lose much of its quality.
