Q: My 2015 macbook air will not mirror to apple tv
I have already checked my firewall preferences to make sure connections are allowed in. I even turned my firewall off, and it still does not work. And I am on the same wifi network with both devices. My wife's macbook air mirrors just fine, and so does our iphones. I can play Itunes music from my computer to apple tv, but it will not mirror.
MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2015), OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)

Well I found the solution.. After spending about 3 or 4 hours of searching and trying to find answers I decided to restart my computer. 30 seconds later, I can mirror now. Not sure why all of my other devices including my wife's macbook air worked and mine didn't.. but it fixed it. If you set up apple tv and a device isn't working.. try restarting the device that isn't working. I started to feel dumb for such a simple fix, but not one site anywhere mentioned restarting the computer. I hope this saves the next persons time.
