Airplay issue with El Capitan

I have a similar issue with my MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2013) on El Capitan. I can connect to my Apple TV 3 (I copy the screen) but it's still not usable: slow framerate and the sound is "cut". I tried the old tips (disconnect the bluetooth for example) but nothing fix the problem.

Does Apple try their features?

PS: The AirPlay works fine with my iPhone 5s and my iPad Mini 2 Retina (both on iOS 9.0.2).

Yes same here. I have an AirPlay icon available but do not have the an Airplay option to choose in order to connect to my ATV 2.

This never happened before I upgraded to El Capitan. My iPhone 6 works well with Airplay and I have ensured that all all units are on the same Wi-Fi network...

Any advice on how to fix this?

Update your apple tv, had the same issue, updated... problem fixed.

Same issue, updated El Captain, Airplay display off.... BUG ?

Same problem.

Uodated ATV2 and still didn't work for me, I can use airplay by Itunes and Iphone but not by macbook

Had the same problem with audio AirPlay from my MBP 15" mid 2009. My workaround is maybe to easy. Did a reboot on ATV3 and audio AirPlay from my MBP is working.

I have exactly the same issue: My iPhone plays music through Airplay, so the system is OK, but the laptop just won't and interacts with the display for some reason. It looks like an El Capitan bug.

I too can't connect my iMac desk top to the Airplay. Everything is up to date as far as updates are concerned. When I go to "System Preferences/displays." At the bottom of the window under the iMac graphic where it says, "AirPlay Display:" The only option I have is "off". Can't get any thing else. In the top ribbon the Square icon with the down pointer under it is not showing. I get it to mirror with my iPad fine; so I know the Apple TV is working (yes, it says its software is up to date)

Had the same problem.

Solved it by changing my firewall preferences.

OK, thanks. Chris. You changed your firewall preferences from "what" to "what"?

I got it working again by just updating my ATV.

No more blocking of all incoming connections.

Chris, Thanks, again. That did the trick. 🙂

Same problem here. Macbook 13" mid 2014 and ATV 3 Gen. My iPhone 6 works fine with it, buy when I try mirroring my macbook it show tremendous lag, and is impossible to mirror a movie from my mac. Everything is up to date, I tried resetting everything, and my firewall is turned off. I have no idea what else to do, I use this constantly. Please Help

I am having the same issue. I just updated my computer to El Capitan, and now my airplay won't work. I have updated iTunes and the ATV. I checked my firewall and it is off. I turned it on and put on the recommended settings, turned it back off, restarted the ATV and my computer and none of the changes matter. It will not give me the option in the display settings to turn airplay on. It just says off and has no option to say yes. I don't know what else to try......
