Hi folks! Happy New Year!

I'm trying to use Airplay from my MBP. I keep getting a message saying, "Could not connect to Apple TV." I wanted to see if anyone else had that problem and what you did to solve it.

Thanks!

Happy New Year to you too! I haven't had a persistent AirPlay issue myself but, from what I understand, most errors at due to issues with wifi. It could be your MBP, your router, or your AppleTV. Try connecting your MBP directly to your router with a network cable. If you're still having a problem disconnect your MBP and connect your AppleTV to your router. You may find your bottleneck that way. Alternatively, you could always try a different router, or position it somewhere else in your home.
