  2. Troubleshooting

    2. Also, make sure that "Allow WiFi network" is enabled.

    4. If you can’t see your device, try tapping on “Can’t see your device?” from the AirTwist & AirPlay options. Wait a few seconds for the broadcast to complete and then go back to the playback screen and look for the WiFi-like icon to appear.
    5. Cast youtube to apple tv from android

    6. If the WiFi-like icon doesn’t appear in the playback screen, your network might not be properly configured for Bonjour / ZeroConf, which is what is needed for AirPlay to stream to your Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation). To verify that your network is properly configured, please install the ZeroConf Browser on your Android device. After installation, launch the ZeroConf Browser and you should see your Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation) in the list of devices. If you do not, your network is not properly configured for Bonjour / ZeroConf. Please reconfigure your network for Bonjour / ZeroConf. Apple maintains a Bonjour / ZeroConf support site here.
