Sep 24, 2015 8:41 AM in response to csaduskyby Winston Churchill,Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
- Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
- Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
- Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
- Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
- Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
- Restart your mobile device.

Nov 2, 2015 11:59 PM in response to csaduskyby fantaznz,Im having the same problem, done every reset, pulled plugs rebooted router this IS a iOS 9 issue with my iPad 3 not a user issue, I updated to ios9 on Sunday and my iPhone 6 still air plays fine where as my iPad 3 doesn't, it shows the options for AirPlay and mirror and when you select it, it does nothing.

May 3, 2016 10:12 AM in response to csaduskyby Mark J. Blair, NF6X,I believe I am having the same problem. I have this setup:
- iPhone 6, model A1549, running 9.3.1 (13E328)
- Airport Express 802.11n 1st Generation, model A1264, running 7.6.4
- Apple TV 3rd Generation, model A1427, running 5.3 (6105)
I am trying to mirror my iPhone screen for a Keynote presentation. I believe that all are running the latest available software versions. The Airport Express is in there to create a WiFi network because I will be presenting at a venue with no WiFi, and it has no upstream internet connection.
I see my Apple TV in Airplay, but it shows up as a speaker instead of a display:
When I connect my iPhone to the Apple TV, my video does not mirror. I can only play audio through the Apple TV. I was hoping to use this setup for a presentation in a couple of days, but it looks like I will need to set up something else. Help!

Apple TVHello Mark,
AirPlay was updated when iOS 9 came out to improve security. Your ATV 3 software is far behind the latest 7.2.1 which received a stealth update (same number) in Feb 2016. That may be the cause of your problem.

May 3, 2016 11:49 AM in response to Diana.McCallby Mark J. Blair, NF6X,My problem seems to be that my Apple TV failed to apply the update properly when I performed a normal software update prior to my previous post. Since then I restored my Apple TV to factory settings, which caused it to update to 7.2.1 (8011), and my video mirroring appears to work now. I was just testing as you replied, Diana. Thank you!
So, for anybody else having this problem, I suggest checking the software version, and then attempting a full restore to factory settings if software update doesn't install a recent version.
