Q: AirPlay icon missing in iTunes 11.0.5 - Windows 7

The AirPlay icon in iTunes 11.0.5 is missing. I am currently using a DELL latop running Windows 7

 

Does anyone know how I can get the AirPlay icon back?

 

I have tried the fix with the mini player and it did not fix my problem.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

iMac 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7, Mac OS X (10.7), www.macblogz.com

A:

I forgot to add... after you check Bonjour Services, make sure you hit the Apply button. You will then have to restart your PC.

    When u will use ipV6 , you have to setup your router and lan/wifi in ipv6 mode. Then bejour pass sound through ipv6 but when you use 2 mode ( ipv4 & ipv6 ) together benjour gets confuse some time it pass through in ipv6 and sometime ipv4 .if your router setup is ipv4 then when banjour pass sound through ipv6 you will not see airplay button in itunes.

    Remon,

    I dont have any of these issues when I am on a Mac and using all Mac products. This issue happened because I updated the iTunes software on a PC running either Windows Vista or Windows 7. I am not sure when the AirPlay icon disappeared... either after a Windows update or the iTunes update. All I know is when I went to the Start menu on windows and typed in config... I went through all the items that were checked... and I noticed Bonjour Services was no longer checked. Once I checked it.... I WAS BACK IN BUSINESS SHOOTING MOVIES TO MY APPLE TV WITH MY GIRLFRIENDS PIECE OF ______ PC

    Disabling IPv6 was the solution for me. I'm on Windows 8, iTunes 11.1.3.8

    Same experience ... I kicked the Wlan-Connection of my Laptop ... and re-entered the Wlan ... the icon was back. Thanks for the tip.

    Same problem -- icon for AirPlay disappeared in iTunes. 

    My solutions sounds a little different from what I've read.

     

    You mentioned Bonjour, so I went to Task Manager --> "Services" tab --> lower right "Services..." button.

     

    Found Bonjour Service in listing, then using commands toward upper left, stopped the service and restarted the service.

     

    Opened iTunes (without even restarting PC) --> icon back where it belongs.

    Shut down Itunes.

    Make sure your apple TV is on using either iphone of Ipador remote.

    Restart ITunes.

    Icon should reappear.

    Hi sk1975

     

    Courteousy of Cunning1_ try this solution

     

    Deselect the Sync with Wifi for your devices as you backup your device with a cable.  I started with my Iphone 5, then the icon appeared!  Strange but it worked - you might need to do all devices.

     

    Hope it helps

    When you want to use ipv6 then you have to turn off ipv4 in everywhere .like in your router ,pc , airport , atv. Etc

     

    Reason For Problem

     

    When u will use ipV6 , you have to setup your router and lan/wifi in ipv6 mode. Then bejour pass sound through ipv6 but when you use 2 mode ( ipv4 and ipv6 ) together benjour gets confuse some time it pass through in ipv6 and sometime ipv4 .if your router setup is ipv4 then, when banjour pass sound through ipv6 you will not see airplay button in itunes.

     

    Hope it's clear to everyone .
