Why won't iPad sink to apple tv unless they are both turned off and on?

Why won't iPad sink with apple tv unless they are both reset each time?

Rudegar,
Our network is very stable and we aren't seeing any problems with anything else and besides, these worked fine until we did the update.
The wifi access point is in the same room about 6-8 ft. away and it's kind of hard to connect an appletv by ethernet to an iPad. 
The appletv runs fine using it's built in applications, like Netflix, Disney, Radio, etc.
All of this makes me think it's not a wireless problem, but it's something in the appletv software after doing the update that won't hold the iPad connection.
I appreciate your suggestions and will pass your information along to our network person.
Any other ideas?
Thanks

    How are you trying to accomplish this? You can't transfer media directly from one iDevice to another. You should be transferring your purchased items to your iTunes library on the computer you sync them with, then syncing them from there.
    You should be able to re-download media from the iTunes store using the same Apple ID used to purchase it to begin with.

    This knowledge base article describes how to restore and use backups.

  • Keep getting msg saying iPad has not been backed up. I do turn off and plug in daily. Is there something I need to do to back up?

    How do I back up iPad? I do turn off completely daily.

    As long as you keep it turned on, then yes it is on. What I meant is that it must be connected to a WiFi network as well as WiFi being turned on.
    You can have WiFi turned on in the settings, but that doesn't mean that you are connected to a network. When you are at home, you would be connected to your home WiFi network. If you try again tonight - or whenever you plug your iPad into recharge, just don't power the iPad off. Leave it turned on and the backups should occur automatically.
    But let me also say that you so have to have this enabled properly in the settings. Settings> iCloud> Storage & Backup> iCloud Backup> On. Make sure you have the iPad set up for automatic backups.

  • HT1386 iPhone and iPad don't always appear in iTunes for wifi sync, why? Sometimes, when my phone and ipad are both turned on and I open iTunes it shows "2 devices" in iTunes and I can sync. Often one or neither will show up, no matter what I do.

    I can sync my iphone and ipad over wifi using itunes, but not always. In fact quite frequently neither shows up in itunes. I try to reboot them and sometimes they show up, but not all the time. I have tried rebooting iphone and ipad, the computer, checking and unchedking "sync over wifi," etc.
    Nothing changes. Very often one or both do not show up to be synced. they work find if connected by usb cable, but not over wifi.
    any help would be appreciated.

    So far I've found the only remedy is to reboot my server (Mavericks Server is my OS).
    Clearly there is some system service getting hosed.  If I can figure out which service to kill and let launchd restore the service, I can save some grief.

  • The eye icon on my layers are not turning off and on. why is this?

    I use Photoshop CC. Here is what I did:
    I first did a duplicate layer of the background and did a high pass filter on it, I then opened a new layer with a visible stamp on it and did some clamp tool changes and some patch tool changes and some dodge and burn changes, I then opened another new layer with a visible stamp on to blur my background. Following that I did a few new layers (without the visible stamp) to add some definition to my subject's eyes and grouped them. Now when i try and see what my photo looked like before, by switch the eye icon off, it doesn't work. Why is this??

    If you made changes only above the background layer ans did not change the background layer when you turn the visibility of the layers above the background off you  should see your original image.  Some screen captures showing the steps and layer stack in the layers palette would be helpful.  A stamp visible layers layer will cover what in layers below make sure all layers above the background have their visibility icon off. So only the background layer is displayed.

  • My apps won't open on my iPhone 3G. I've tried turning off and back on, and I've also reset the settings too.

    I would prefer not to do a full-on reset because I don't want all my music and media erased.

    Try downloading any free app to resync your iTunes account.
    FYI, you can restore (full-on reset) and not lose your data... after the restore, your backup is installed.

    Hello Brenda,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPad.  It sounds like you're not able to access the Internet on your iPad.  I found a couple of resources that will help.
    If you are having trouble connecting to the Internet using Wi-Fi, I recommend the following article:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

    If you are not able to access the Internet when connected to a cellular network, I recommend the following article:

  • Why won't iPad video open when emailed to Windows desktop?

    Why won't iPad video open when emailed to Windows desktop?

    Hey there Ray_J,
    I understand that you want iTunes to be opening every time you connect your phone to your computer. You may wish to adjust this setting in your iTunes preferences to affect this behavior:
    Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically
    Prevent devices from automatically syncing with this iTunes library when a device is connected. To sync a device, click the Sync button when the device is connected.
    iTunes 12 for Mac: iTunes Devices preferences
    https://support.apple.com/kb/PH19595
    If this is unchecked, iTunes will open automatically when you connect an iOS device. Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • Why won't my apple tv sync with my new macbook pro, they are both on the same wifi signal

    why won't my apple tv sync with my new macbook pro, they are both on the same wifi signal.

    Not sure of what? In your second response you said the issue was with airplay. You were also having issues connecting laptop to computer, which points to a laptop connectivity issue. I simply asked if home sharing was an issue as well, since that will confirm the laptop as the cause. Your response that home sharing is on doesn't really help since that doesn't itself have a bearing on airplay nor does it answer the question in regards to if home sharing is working on Apple TV
    If you have a further question you will need to be specific.

  • Why doesn't my itunes on my windows pc load on my apple tv?  Home sharing is turned on and my ipad can see it!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Intermittent problems
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
    Consistent Problems
    A frequent cause of consistent failure to enable AirPlay or HomeSharing at all, is the service being blocked on the network. Make sure your network isn't hidden, has a unique name, that MAC address authentication is disabled, security is set to use WPA 2 Personal and that there is only one router/device acting as a DHCP server and providing NAT services.
    Make sure your router/computer allows access over the following ports
    Port
    Type
    Protocol
    Used By
    80
    TCP
    HTTP
    AirPlay
    443

    Bonjour/AirPlay
    49163
    UDP
    MDNS (Win)
    Bonjour/AirPlay
    Refer to your router manual/manufacturer for any settings that are specific to that model.
    Another frequent cause of consistent failure to enable AirPlay or HomeSharing at all, is security software, in many cases configuring it correctly, disabling it or even uninstalling it can help, but in some cases the security software can cause problems that simply reconfiguring, disabling or uninstalling cannot reverse.
    If you are consistently unable to activate AirPlay, have tried all the steps in this article and have security software installed on your system, you might benefit from contacting its provider or participating in any online forums they run to discuss the matter with them.

  • My ipad is stuck inbetween on and off.  The screen is black with the white apple in the middle.  It won't turn off and it won't come on.  anyone know what is wrong?

    My ipad is stuck inbetween on and off.  The screen is black with the white apple in the middle of the screen.  It won't turn off and won't come completely on.  Anyone know what is wrong?

    See if this lets the iPad start up.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Why won't ipad print to HP office jet 8600 all in one printer model n911a ?

    Why won't ipad print to HP Office Jet 8600 model n911a? My I Phone 4S will print to printer but Ipad won't.

    Hi,
    The HP Officejet 8600 is an AirPrint enabled printer, there is no such 8600A model as listed above.
    Try updating the printer firmware and check for any change:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02919168&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en &product=4323659&tmp_track_link=ot_search
    If the same persists it might happen due to lack of Bonjour compatibility or wrong configuration of your router.
    Try bypassing the router using the HP Wireless Direct option:
    Click the Network / Wireless Icon on the printer front panel and then tap on Settings.
    Click on Wireless Direct and select On (No Security).
    From your iPad go to Settings > Wi-Fi and connect to the printer's network, it should include either 8600 or n911.
    Try printing and check for any change, if that works be sure to clarify your router brand and model to better understand if it support Bonjour and how that kind of support can be enable.
