Need Help connecting Ipad air to Apple Tv

Trying to get new ipad air connected to Apple tv. Some time ago managed to get iphone 5 connected. On Ipad, cannot get control panel to show up by swiping up on screen and getting airplay icon set up. Any help will be appreciated. Jerry

Re: Need Help connecting Ipad air to Apple Tv

Actually for iOS 8 and a third gen ATV on the latest software there is a way of having them
Connect directly without needing to be on wifi. I only have 2nd gen ATVs myself though so I've never used it.

I have a 3rd Gen AppleTV and I've not been able to do it...

Re: Need Help connecting Ipad air to Apple Tv

I contacted apple support chat and during discussion, I discovered my problem with getting control panel to show up was because I was probably because I was using ipad in landscape mode and not taking account of which end of the ipad was the top. Duh...... Anyway that part is working now. Thanks for the suggestions.

Only the A1469 model of the 3rd gen Apple TV can do it (which is what I have) and it does work.

The 3rd generation Apple TV it works with are those that were made from April 2013 and on.
