Q: Airplay issue with El Capitan

Having a reliability issue while using airplay with el capitan to apple tv 3! it will either work after a long delay (and not turn off) or won't work at all. My iPhone 6S iOS 9.0.2 works fine with airplay and my home network is not an issue. Anyone else have this issue?

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014), OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)

    I have a similar issue with my MacBook  Air (13-inch, Mid 2013) on El Capitan. I can connect to my Apple TV 3 (I copy the screen) but it's still not usable: slow framerate and the sound is "cut". I tried the old tips (disconnect the bluetooth for example) but nothing fix the problem.

    Does Apple try their features?

     

    PS: The AirPlay works fine with my iPhone 5s and my iPad Mini 2 Retina (both on iOS 9.0.2).

    Yes same here. I have an AirPlay icon available but do not have the an Airplay option to choose in order to connect to my ATV 2.

     

    This never happened before I upgraded to El Capitan. My iPhone 6 works well with Airplay and I have ensured that all all units are on the same Wi-Fi network...

     

    Any advice on how to fix this?

    Had the same problem with audio AirPlay from my MBP 15" mid 2009. My workaround is maybe to easy. Did a reboot on ATV3 and audio AirPlay from my MBP is working.

    I have exactly the same issue: My iPhone plays music through Airplay, so the system is OK, but the laptop just won't and interacts with the display for some reason. It looks like an El Capitan bug.

    I too can't connect my iMac desk top to the Airplay.  Everything is up to date as far as updates are concerned.  When I go to  "System Preferences/displays." At the bottom of the window under the iMac graphic where it says, "AirPlay Display:"  The only option I have is "off".  Can't get any thing else.  In the top ribbon the Square icon with the down pointer under it is not showing.  I get it to mirror with my iPad fine; so I know the Apple TV is working (yes, it says its software is up to date)

    OK,  thanks. Chris.  You changed your firewall preferences from "what" to "what"?

    I got it working again by just updating my ATV.
