The Airplay Icon is not showing up on My Taskbar After Upgrading to Mountain Lion
Please help. I have 2nd generation Apple TV and a 2011 Imac but the Airplay Icon will not show up on Taskbar after upgrading to Mountain Lion.
Finally after trying to uninstall/reinstall (no luck!)
I'm on Windows 7 64 bit. iTunes 10.7 And I have a solution:
If found a thread about IPv6.
I followed the same directions on Windows 7 64 bit and it worked.
Disable IPv6 on _all_ of your IP ethernet adapters.
That includes Virtual Machines (VMWare... yes those too), including IPv6 for wireless.
Close iTunes. Start iTunes. Works. Airplay Icon is back.
It looks like All of the AirPlay devices may have to be re-setup. At the very least rebooted.
I found that I had to clompletely erase my DHCP addresses from my (non Apple) router.. and that fixed it. Finally.
Even though this is for the Mac... I believe they are onto something. Original thread link:

The Airplay icon does not show on my Mac Pro, regardless that it is clicked on display. How can I do to see the Airplay Icon in order to connect my apple TV with my Mac Pro?
To check your model go to About This Mac (by clicking on the Apple icon, top left) and then select more info. If you wish to use mirroring you will need one from 2011 or later running OSX 10.8 or later. The alternative would be to use 3rd party software like Airparrot.

Hi, I have a mac book pro running mavericks and recently tried to connect to a 3rd gen apple tv but the airplay icon is not showing up in the top bar. I then tried my girlfriends laptop running mountain lion and it showed up straight away. Any suggestions?
How old is the MacBook Pro? AirPlay is only supported on 2011 and newer models, due to the requirements it has in hardware for graphics acceleration.

I just verified that i have an early 2011 Macbook Pro and the airplay icon does not appear. i also have a 2013 Macbook Pro which shows the airplay icon. do i need to enable airplay on my early 2011 or is there an update that is needed? Confused.

HT201335 The airplay icon will not stay in my control bar!
The airplay icon will not stay in my control bar and when activated and turned to mirroring nothing shows up on my tv. I have airplay on, on my appleTV. So I am out of ideas and I cannot find anything on here to help. I am using my iPad air and it along with my appleTV are all up to date. I also just checked my iPhone 5 and it is not in the control bar as well. I have even restarted the iPad and it will show up just long enough for me to turn it on but nothing shows on the tv and when I go back to the control bar it is gone. I hope someone can help.
Hey Thebassbuilder,
Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, it sounds like the issue may reside with your Apple TV or network, since it is reproducible on two devices. To continue troubleshooting, I recommend the following articles:

Airplay Icon does not show in computer
The aiplay icon does not show in the computer but it does show on itunes. My computer is a Macbook Pro, Retina Mid 2012, with a processor
2.3 GHz Intel Core i7 and Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3. My software is up to date and it is Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63). The software of my apple tv is already up to date. I already checked in system preferences and display and it doesn't show the icon to enable the airplay. My computer and TV are using the same wireless.Welcome to the Apple Community.
AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). You can see which Mac you have and which operating system you are using by selecting 'About this Mac' from the Apple menu in the top left corner of your Mac and selecting the 'More Info' button. -
The message icon is not showing in the drop screen of my photos where it says do you want to email, message, assign, use as waller paper etc. it used to show before and now it's not there how can I get it back?
Did this back along to mine. Plug it into itunes on your pc (or Mac) and click on the ipod icon on the left hand side. When the device options come up on the main screen, click on restore. Follow the steps and it should restore to factory settings. If you had icloud activated on the ipod all previous purchases should be in the cloud and ready to download onto the ipod afte rit has been restored to factory settings, otherwise you'll have to download them all again. Hope it helped.

my i pad air is tottaly not opening.. when i put it on charge. the charge icon is not showing and still not opening.. i plug my ipad air to my computer its not showing in itunes
Have you tried a soft-reset to see if it that gets it to boot up ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds after which the Apple logo will hopefully appear and it will boot up.
If that doesn’t fix it then have you got a different cable, and possibly charger, that you could try ? -
The acrobat icon is not display in my email client after installation, therefore I am unable to open
I installed the newest acrobat reader in my iPad2, but the acrobat icon is not showing on the top row of my email client as adobe described in "getting started". Since iBooks doesn't support PDF how do I resolve this so I can open my docs? Do I need to uninstall and reinstall the app?
For some documents, the Mail app will attempt to show a "preview" of the document in the message. Unfortunately, sometimes this preview is just a blank white page so it's "invisible". Can you please try long pressing on the white space at the end of the email and letting up your finger. You may see a "open in" option upon doing this. If this doesn't work, please send a sample of the message to us at [email protected]
Thanks! -
When I send a message on MESSAGES using my iPad2, they do not show up on my iPhone or my MacBook Mountain Lion messages. Did I miss a setting on any of the devices as I thought iCloud took care of syncing all of my devices

There have been a few threads about this. The feature seems to have gone missing in Mountain Lion even though the Help for Preview still mentions it.
I've filed a bug report on it.

HI, SO I BOUGHT MOUNTAIN LION ON MY MACBOOK PRO TRYING TO UPGRADE FROM SNOW LEOPARD, AND WHILE TRYING TO REINSTALL THE OS SETUP AS IT SHOWED IT COULDNT BE VERIFIED, I CROSSED OUT MOUNTAIN LION FROM MY PURCHASES, ITS NOW GONE, DO I HAVE TO BUY IT AGAIN?
Please google search for "Mountain Lion disk crash" before upgrading you mac pro. You might need to replace you Mac hard drive after the upgrade.So many people had the same problems including me.
Be aware of the Mountain Lion upgrade problem. -
after upgrading to mountain lion, i find that my mail app does not have a "VIP" Tab. Was wondering if anyone else has this issue and what it is about?
First, select sender(s) as VIPs. Then the VIP category will appear.
To select a sender as a VIP, open an email from that sender, then hover over their name and a star icon will appear to the left. Click the star, and that sender will be set as a VIP (and the category will appear in the pane on the left).
