Why did my AirPlay disappear from my iphone and macbook when trying to stream to Apple TV?

I have the newest gen Apple TV. I got it mainly to airplay from and mirror from my ios devices, and macbook. I soon learned that mirroring was not available as the have the last gen macbook, but that i could airplay using home sharing for everything in my itunes library including directly from my iphone running 6.0.1. I was enjoying that function most of all and then all of a sudden, it's just gone. The AirPlay icon is gone from my phone, and my apple tv no longer reads my macbook running latest version of mtn lion.
On the Apple TV, it keeps telling me to turn home sharing on, which it already is.
My Apple Tv is running the latest version. I have the latest version of mtn lion, as well as ios6. I am on the same network on all devices - did a test - test came back positive the tv is able to run apps successfully. Reset all devices, restarted all devices.
Is there a fix for this? There should be no reason why it's not functioning. Please help.

A guess:
Put your mouse on the word RECENT in the left hand pane. Then when the word 'Show' appears, click on it.

do you sync your contacts with an application in your computer? or use iCloud?
I can't tell you why the contacts disappear but you can get them back without much hassle by syncing through iTunes with your computer.
do you regularly make backups? if so, you can restore your iPhone using the backups and get your contacts back in your iPhone.
It is strange that half of your contacts are gone over and over again. Do you have Groups that are unchecked in your iPhone? If so, the contacts in those groups will not appear in your contacts list but they are in your iPhone and be recovered by re-checking the group name.

HT1689 All my contacts disappeared from my iPhone.

All my contacts disappeared from my iPhone.
The phone strarted "blinking" all of a sudden, and when it returned to normal all contacts were missing.
Has anyone else experienced this? Do you know if I can somehow restore the contacts? (No, I did not syncronize them with my PC or store them online..)
Thanks!

I would try a reboot and pray that it helped. But if you didn't back the phone up to itunes or icloud or if you don't already store your contacts in gmail, then they are probably gone forever.

HT5085 I have found that at least 3 music videos that I had previously purchased are not available in my I-tunes music video list. I paid for them over a year ago, why are they not accessible, and why did they just disappear from my lists?

Have you deleted anything from your iTunes library ? Have you checked to see if they are still on your computer, but not listed in your iTunes library ?
If not then do they show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading ? If they don't show there and others do and they are still in your country's store, then check to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
If they are no longer in your store for redownloading (or you aren't in a country where music videos can be redownloaded) then you will need to copy them back from your backup of your library/downloads.

Why has Safari suddenly disappeared from my iPhone?

It is not possible to delete Safari, it may have moved to a different screen. Do a search for the app or you can click on your settings>general>reset then select reset home screen layout.

When setting iCloud my contacts disappeared from my iPhone

I sync my iphone 5 with outlook as well as my ipad mini.
I created an icloud account to be able to use the find my iphone app.
It asked me what to do with my contacts and I chose merge.
My contacts have disappeared from my iphone an there are no contacts in icloud.
My ipad mini has the data since I have not configured icloud in the ipad.
What do you suggest to get the contacts back to my iphone?
And what do I need to do to configure icloud on the ipad without deleting the contacts
Thank you
ATM

Thank you for your suggestion. I tried that and when I slid the bar to off , I was asked what I wanted to do with the icloud synched contacts, leave on the iPad or delete or cancel. I selected leave on the iPad and then the synch symbol came on screen, it stayed that way for over 30 minutes, in that state. I then rebooted the iPad and it came back , I went to the screen and the setting for iCloud contact was back to on. The contacts were still not there. My mail was still not working. I turned mail off and on , I received some email but not all as I compared to my iPhone and I tried to send an email it still did not send. I went back to the settings iCloud and turned contacts off again, I answered leav on iPad again and this time left it like that for an hour and had the same results.

Why are my notes disappearing from my iphone

Some of my notes have disappeared from my iPhone 5S. I noticed a while back on my old 4S. I spent about 3 hours at the Apple store trying to fix this. But it was a waste of time. My notes are backed up to my iCloud and yahoo so I still have them. This apparently is a common problem because there are a lot of folks asking the same question. The same answer that I have seen is how to retrieve them. That isn't a solution. Why is this happening and what needs to be done to keep it from happening. This is a very useful app but it is no good when it continues to lose my notes. Same thing is happening with my wife's 5S too!

Yahoo is holding Notes as hostage. Check your Yahoo account settings.

Why did all contacts disappear when I turned on iCloud?

Yesterday I turned on iCloud for my contact info, and when I tried to access my contacts some hours later, discovered that all my contacts disappeared from my iPhone4.
When I turned off iCloud for my contacts (iCloud is still on for other stuff) my contacts immediately reappeared.
What gives?

Thanks for the advice, but after this and other hassles, I've decided to not use iCloud in any way. I'm sticking with the old way of syncing my iphone via the cable and iTunes as well. Suits me just fine.
Other than not providing a detailed manual on iOS5 in general, and iCloud in particular, I'm not blaming Apple here. I used to be on top of my Mac and Apple devices, but somewhere along the road I got left behind, and I just don't have the time anymore to catch up, especially when that means doing so by trial and error.
I'm still an avid fanboy of my Apple computer, iPhone and recently Apple TV. I'm sure iCloud is wonderful, but having never successfully used it, I don't miss it.
Thanks again.

All contacts disappeared from my iphone when trying to use icloud. What happened?

In order to set up Groups, I was advised to install CopyTrans (free version).
I have also set up and use ICoud.com through my PC to make Groups and arrange contacts.
But now I have NO contacts in my iPhone. When I close the Contacts App and reopen it, some appear. But when I touch 'Groups' they all disappear again.
How do I access all 700 contacts stored on iCould?
When I Synch with my PC (which uses Outlook) all those 500 contacts are added AGAIN and AGAIN forcing me to delete duplicates constantly.
And then when I turn on the iPhone and touch Groups - they disappear again.
I switched from BlackBerry - was this a mistake?

Suggest you consider using an app to back up your contacts. This will allow you to easily restore them if this happens again. One I can recommend is My Contacts Backup Pro, although I'm sure there are others that work as well. The app will back up your contacts as a vCard attachment to an email. Send the email to yourself and save either the email or the attachment. If you ever need to restore your contacts you can just tap the attachment to import them back to your phone.
Then, as mentioned in the other post, try saving your photo stream photos to your camera roll, delete the iCloud account, provide your password and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your data will still be in iCloud), then sign back in. Hopefully it won't happen again after that.

Why do my photos disappear from my iPhone?

Why do my photos and videos randomly get deleted from my iPhone? They disappear from the camera roll and photo stream. Yesterday I had photos in camera roll and photo stream - today they are both empty. Photo stream is still there on my other devices.

Perhaps the universe is trying to tell you something about emoji?
Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?

Why did my project disappear from the project library?

I recently finished a project, exported it to the "project file" in the Movie folder, and from there burned it to a disk. No problem. Since then, I have been thinking about making a couple of changes to the project, but when I opened the Project Library in iMovie, lo and behold, it was nowhere to be found. All of my other projects were there, but this one was gone.
I looked in the project file in the Movie folder, and there it was, along with the movie, but I can't edit it any further in its present location. If it were in the project library (where it belongs), I could certainly edit it, but I can't figure out how to get it back there, so to speak.
Two questions: first, why did it disappear from the Project Library, and second, what can I do about it now? I could always start from scratch (using clips in the Event Library), but that means doing everything over again, which I prefer not to do. Any ideas?

I've got the similar problem:

any one able to solve it???
I've also restarted a million times but it still doesn't seem to work...
thanks

HT4191 Why did my contacts disappear after syncing with 10.7 for the frist time and how do I get them back?

It also apparently changed all the contacts on my computer. Now I have a only a portion of my contacts both on my PC and my iPod 4g with nothing to restore from. Thanks Apple! Hope you update your crap OS sometime soon. Maybe then my Messenger app will start working again. Maybe then I can use the app store again. Maybe then I can use a working map again. Maybe then I will start using my apple devices again.

yes, i did too.. will probably just try to restore them from the iphone sync.
