Airplay not working on ios7 and latest apple TV update

I have upgraded to ios7 on my 3rd gen iPad and iPhone 5 and updated my 3rd gen apple TV today. I now can't see the airplay icon on the iPhone or the iPad when I bring up the command centre. They were there on ios6. Airplay is switched on, on apple TV and they're all on the same wifi network. Any ideas on whats going on? I have looked at the similar posts and the fixes dont work for me.

Cheers

Apple TV (3rd generation), iOS 7, iphone 5, 3rd gen ipad

I'm having some troubles with airplay on my 3rd gen apple ATV6.0 and IPhone 5 on IOS7.0.2.

All devices connected through AirPort Extreme 802.11AC 7.7.1

Bulk of the problems come from the ATV connected wirelessly

Where the wired one has less errors, but is more often in use.

Some of the errors I've had

Content "fails to load"

"Apple TV is not connected to network"

Videos loading for 1-2minutes before first playback, with multiple pauses.

And maybe other issues too. But those are most recent.


I can't say exactly when it started happening, but for sure in the last 2-3 weeks.

(Kinda since IOS7 and ATV6?) mayybeee?


Back to the topic

I haven't had the missing airplay icon.

Sorry

After several hours to back up and restore my ipad 3 the airplay is working. It may have been there all the time. The first Apple rep tried to help thinking it was bluetooth connection. I did everything she told me to to including starting the ipad as a new ipad. Second rep tried going thru some of the same things. Then when I insisted that my Bose was an airplay...not bluetooth he told me to swipe up to get the command center and there it was. They moved the airplay to the command center instead of the upper left hand corner of the screen where it appeared in ios6.


I still don't have airplay on my iphone 4s but the leaving that alone until I check my husbands phone that has not been upgraded to ios7.


I give Apple Support and A for effort but a C for knowing the new platform.
