Just a quick note – I was struggling with Airplay “suddenly” not working from my desktop iMac 5k to my 4th generation Apple TV. \u00a0When I would try to extend my desktop to the Apple TV, the TV would blank out and sound would start coming from the TV. \u00a0No video would show at all – and I couldn’t move the mouse to what was supposed to be the extended display. I confirmed using a Macbook that the problem was with the iMac, not the Apple TV.<\/p>\n

I searched quite a bit for a solution, and eventually found a mention that having other screen sharing tools installed might cause the problem. \u00a0I had recently installed Duet<\/a> and tested it (it worked!), so I figured that might be the culprit. \u00a0After an uninstall and reboot, Airplay the Apple TV now works again. \u00a0Hooray!<\/p>\n

Duet looks to be pretty neat, and it does work (although the value of it on something smaller than a 12.9″ iPad Pro is questionable), but sending stuff to the big screen is far more important to me.<\/p>\n
