AirPlay issues in IOS 8.1 on iPad3 using Reflector

Hi. I just updated my iPad3 to IOS 8.1. I noticed that AirPlay does not show the Mirroring Button anymore when I try to connect to my Laptop Win 7 via Reflector. I already checked my wifi connections on both gadgets and both are connected on the same network.

When I was still using IOS 7, I have no issues mirroring my iPad 3 to my Laptop on Win7 via Reflector.

Does IOS 8.1 does not support Reflector anymore? Is there another way (using application/software) which I can do to mirror my iPad 3 to my PC?

Thank you.

iPad, iOS 8.1

I just tested it with my iPad on iOS 8.1 and noticed the same. I noticed there was an update available, though (1.6.5), and after installing it, now it works. Open Reflector, then go to Reflector > Check for Updates to update it.

This may sound dumb, but I just learned from a video through Reflector, that I just needed to scroll down from the AirPlay window to show the Mirroring Button. It works fine now. 😊

I was just got used to the old setting when the Mirroring button immediately shows up when you select your PC name in the AirPlay window.

Thank you.
