Airplay is not working on Apple TV with ios 10. It was working prior to the update. Please advise.

Hi jamelie. You may have the first generation Apple TV (silver case, white remote). You can check your version at this link: Identify your Apple TV model - Apple Support. Video AirPlay has changed since your last update, so your device may no longer support it.

Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.

1. Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
2. Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
3. Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
4. Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
5. Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
6. Restart your mobile device or computer.

If you are still having problems, try using 802.11n for wifi if you are currently using either 802.11b or 802.11g.

If your problem is AirPlaying from a computer, try disabling bluetooth

Hi. You say AirPlay is "not working" without describing the nature of the failure. If you're looking for basic AirPlay, not mirroring, note that it has moved to the new second pane of the iOS 10 Control Center. Swipe up, then left to access it. On iPad you'll see a list of devices, on iPhone an icon you can tap on to see the list.

Mirroring displays the screen of your device on the TV. It was always available, but it used to be a toggle on the AirPlay popup menu. Now it gets its own button, for some reason.

Hi, i have an apple tv (software 5.3(6105) ) i can airplay the Sound only but cannot find the apple tv on the first screen when I press thr

I have the Black device with the silver remote. It used to work on IOS9 (ipad mini) it's not now.

I tried it with an iphone 4 (ios8), iphone 6 and 7 plus (ios10) and an ipad mini (ios9)

OK. I was confused because you said the software version is 5.3. The current software for Apple TV 2 is 6.2.1, and for Apple TV 3 it's 7.2.2. Your software may not support the updated AirPlay.
