Apple T.V. Airplay not working with my iphone 5 and i pad .

Did you turn off ATV by unplugging the power cable, Turn off wireless router for 30 seconds and power back up.

Once wireless router is up and going (usually 2 minutes) plug ATV back in and try.

Seems to me that its your wireless router.

If your friend is willing... how about they bring their ATV and connect it to see if Airplay is available.

On the iPhone try a hard reset... press and hold home and power button.

Turn on device after and try again.

Everything described indicates a network problem.

Are the ATV and other devices connected to the same network?

What brand and model router are you using?

But i can navigate to ATV on its menu and if i open my laptop it Airplay works with movies , music , photos etc.

Navigating from the ATV menu is not AirPlay. That is HomeSharing. Minor detail but best to be explicit and accurrate.

Again, this all points to a network issue.

It means, troubleshoot the network issue.

Hi Bohn

I had the same problem - luv my ipad mini and had heard great things about Apple TV

Guess what I could not get Airplay to work, or even see the Airplay icon on my Ipad

Scrolled thru some forum sites and found a supposed fix

Given that you are all connected on the same network, on the ipad - go settings, general, international (language)

Change the language to say French, or any other - allow the ipad to complete the language change. Then, go back to settings, general, international and change back to original language (mine is english). Once the the change has

completed - hey presto - you should see the AirPlay icon on the control section of the ipad.

I know it sounds daft, but this really worked for me and once you have done this, access through Airplay will work, even if you reboot the Ipad mini

Good luck

Let me know how you get on

That's nice.

Now, troubleshoot the network issue, merely checking the settings is not troubleshooting the problem.

Power cycle the devices.

Confirm they are set correctly, not just that they match one another. There is little if any information in those devices that needs/should match anyways.

If you are unfamiliar with how to troubleshoot network issues, find someone that does and have them look at the issue.
