i just updated to 10.9.2 and now when i try and airplay mirror to my Apple TV, it sends the audio but just shows a black screen and i can't drag anything to it. It doesn't show any of the options for external displays in the displays section of System Preferences.
Any ideas? i tried reapplying the combo update with no luck
iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)
Some more details of how you uninstalled AirDisplay would be appreciated.
There are others on this forum who could benefit from some more information.

Now I can use Air Play with my iMac 27"
Thank you Apple Community
I did a Spotlight search for AirDisplay, and it found AirDisplay Uninstaller. I ran that, and that's it. All good.
Well done Joseph Rose ! Thank you Apple Community for your time and care! That was my problem.
Except it does not fix the problem for those like me who have never used Squirrel or Airparrot or any other animal to mirror to another device.
Airplay mirroring is broken on my 2008 Macbook Pro and my 2013 27" iMac. It broke on both as soon as I installed 10.9.2. Nothing else changed.
That is simply not true. I had never heard of Airparrot before looking at these threads and my mirroring is dead.
hi guys ıhave same problems.uninstall airparrot but I cannot Mirror nor extend my desktop through the iMac to any Apple TV. I don't even see my mouse like others have. Apple TV just goes dark and nothing happens.ı think airparrot not cause this problems...
Ah ha.
So in addition the removal process for the AirParrot kexts, people still experiencing the issue should also look to remove AirDisplay components. According to the uninstaller script provided by AirDisplay, the responsible kexts for causing the issues are:
/System/Library/Extensions/AVFrameBuffer.kext
/System/Library/Extensions/AVVideoCard.kext
You can (and should) run the uninstaller to cleanly clear any components from AirDisplay that are left, but to verify you can run these commands in Terminal yourself:
sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AVFrameBuffer.kext
sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AVVideoCard.kext
Restart and then try again.
When Joseph Rose showed all of his kexts a few pages back, these two were installed... which is why he was still experiencing the issue. Now that we know what they are, we can remove them.
ı did but continue problem also ı uninstall splashtop streamer may be fix but not working airplay.10.9.1 working 10.9.2 not working ı dont understand
Just did a system restore & update to the AppleTV - making sure its all up to date.
My MacBook Pro Retina is all up to date. It worked for about 10secs, then disconnected me & wont let me connect to appleTV again. Still broken. Ive never had airdisplay or airparrot installed.
I also noticed, that when it disconnects if you use the remote for the AppleTV is has gone off the network e.g. going to trailers/TV/etc time-out. Someone else might want to confirm if this is the same for them.
I can see things like the following on the console of the macbook

This worked for me.
Joseph Rose's solution finally fixed Airplay for me. I now have mirroring and extended Airplay functions again. It was a long road, but in the end, removing Air Parrot and Air Display was the solution for me.
Solution:
Ran the Air Display uninstaller that I found by searching in spotlight.
Ran the Air Parrot removal tool & confirmed that the files were deleted based on instructions from their website.
Thanks to all that participated and spent their valuable time offering assistance!
The AirServer-uninstaller and removing all files of AirParrot did not work for me, but manually deleting the following extentions and rebooting were finally the solution!!!
sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AVFrameBuffer.kext
sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AVVideoCard.kext
all fine again! (so 3rd party caused issues with the update not the update itselfe!)
Remove any third party streaming service, both audio and visual: Airfoil, Airspeakers, Airserver, everything.
I'm running a 2009 MBP so was worried that this was an issue that wasn't as easily fixed on older systems, but when I went through my programs I found an old copy of Airfoil sitting there. Use something like AppZapper to get rid of the applications you find if they don't come with an uninstaller (like Airparrot), and run the above commands via terminal and you should be golden. Still not working? You've likely missed something somewhere.
I couldn't even use iTunes airplay, or connect to the MBP via NitoTV media player (ATV2), but now all of that has been resolved.
That is exact my problem too!
Since last update of my IMAC.
Good to know that I am not the only one. Apple should fix the problem. Who is asking them?
I was dealing with the same problem on my new iMac. I uploaded the new 10.9.2 and my airplay just would have sound and no picture. Before I even knew about airplay, I was using airparrot, then it just sat on my computer for months. I went through applecare and they found that files from airparrot were blocking airplay. I deleted airparrot from my mac and also found a link that gave me a "how to" delete the remaining hidden files. Ran it through Terminal, then rebooted my mac. My airplay now works once again. 😉 Hope this helps. \m/

Airplay mirroring broke in 10.9.2
