Hey specialeddie,


Check out the following directions to be able to AirPlay Mirror your iPhone 5 to your Apple TV:

To enable AirPlay Mirroring on your iOS 7 device:

  1. Connect your iOS device and your Apple TV to the same Wi-Fi network.
  2. Swipe up from the bottom of your screen to access Control Center.
