Had to turn off security to be able to use Airplay--not a good solution. Any other ideas?
When I set up my Apple TV, the screen said to hold my phone nearby so that it could join my home network. Bluetooth was on--nothing happened. I rebooted the Apple TV and my iPhone--still nothing.
When I try to Airplay from my Mac to Apple TV, the "Living Room" (the name of my Apple TV) option is grayed out.
I went into settings and chose "Allow everyone to stream to this Apple TV" and now I can stream from my MacBook and iPhone to the Apple TV but I'm a bit uncomfortable leaving security so open like this, especially since I live in a big city and now I'm sure my Apple TV is showing up on other people's phones, Macs, etc.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
