Q: Ipad2 AirPlay mirroring not working after ios8 upgrade

I Think I discovered the issue. I have an av adapter plugged into my power cord. It currently doesn't have an hdmi plugged in but I keep it between my power cable and the iPad so I can easily plug in hdmi if I want to. It looks like I cant enable mirrorring while it is plugged in.

Sorry for confusion, it was late, I was tired. I was just trying to establish whether video AirPlay was working in any way, but I used the term "mirroring."

Maybe sometimes never is better than "late."

Good to know, thanks for reporting back. 

Thanks for the scroll tip, it is there once you drag up.

Had the same problem but figured it out. When you press the AirPlay button select Apple TV in the bubble, then drag up on the  checked Apple TV selection and you will find the Mirroring switch in the same bubble.

Even in ios8.1.1 no mirroring button in iPad new. With digital connection upto iOS 7 excellently

Indeed, that is the solution.  Find the airplay icon, then swipe it up to see the mirroring option.  Turn it on.  Now ... Figuring this out has cost me an hour of searching all kinds of Internet site, various iterations with other suggestions, etc etc..  Apple is "intuitive"?!?  Buahahahaha ... Best joke ever. 

If you scroll up in only the little airplay box that comes up you should find the mirroring option directly under bedroom apple tv.

The omission of the scroll bar in the airplay box cost me and my son about half an hour finding out how to turn on mirroring.  The Apple help files were worthless in this regard.  Is there a way to tell iOS 8 to always display scroll bars?  The current situation is not user friendly at all.  Must have come from Microsoft.

Hi, I had this problem as well, it turns out on ios8 for the iPad the AirPlay screen now scrolls. When you select the AirPlay devices in AirPlay try scrolling down.

on the iPhone its shown on the same screen.

cheers

MIne doesnt even give me the option to choose my "Family Room Apple TV". It shows this pic above.

Currently running version 8.1.2 on my iPad Air2.

HHold your finger and drag up and it's just below Apple Tv

Thanks, this work!

DDid anyone ever help find a solution to this? I am having the exact same issue, there is no AirPlay button and it's not a matter of scrolling.

ive rebooted and rebooted and updated everything. Would a factory restore/erase all settings and content help anything?

i Feel like this would still work if I never updated any of the ios from its original settings
