Hence, as the most basic fix for your <strong>Samsung AirPlay not working<\/strong>, ensure that your internet connection is working correctly and that your iOS device and the Samsung TV are connected to the same internet connection.&nbsp; I would recommend power cycling your wifi router to restart the internet connection and resolve network-related hiccups if any.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#x2019;s how you can power cycle your wifi router,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1: <\/strong>Unplug both your wifi router and the modem from the power outlet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> Wait for about 30 seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> Replug the modem first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4:<\/strong> Wait for 1-2 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 5:<\/strong> Power on the router.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 6: <\/strong>Test the internet connection once all the panel lights on your modem turn green.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you are done power cycling your wifi router, try mirroring your iPhone, iPad, or Mac screen. In case of a minor issue related to the internet connection, you should be able to use AirPlay on your Samsung TV post this fix. Else, try the following method to troubleshoot your Smart TV AirPlay feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2.

But why not? Turn off and on solutions work as a temporary fix for almost all connectivity issues, whether AirPlay, Bluetooth, or the internet. If you are a new Samsung Smart TV owner, there are chances that the AirPlay is not activated on your TV already, and you have to toggle through the settings and turn the feature settings on. In my recent article about<a href=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/how-to-airplay-to-samsung-tv\/\"> how to use AirPlay on Samsung TV<\/a>, I have discussed this process in detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the steps to reset the AirPlay settings on your Samsung TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Go to the General Settings of your Samsung Smart TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> Navigate to the Apple AirPlay Settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> If the setting is still off, turn it on.

These enhancements are in the form of software updates. Updating your software ensures your device system is the most recent and bug-free version. There is the possibility that the reason why <strong>AirPlay is not connecting to Samsung TV <\/strong>may be a pending software update on your Smart TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow the given steps to ensure that your Samsung TV is running on the most recent version of the software and avoid facing the issue of the <strong>Samsung TV not showing up on AirPlay.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Go to the Samsung TV <strong>Settings <\/strong>option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> Select the <strong>Support <\/strong>option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> Look for the <strong>Software Update<\/strong> option.

Disable The Auto Protection Time On Your Samsung TV<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/117.jpg\" alt=\"Disable The Auto Protection Time On Your Samsung TV\" class=\"wp-image-4874\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/117.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/117-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/117-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/117-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Auto Protection Time is a screen saver feature on your Samsung TV. If this feature is turned on and there is no activity happening on your Samsung TV, or your Smart TV screen remains on the same image for a longer time, the Tv goes into the screen saver mode. The downside of this feature is that this can result in your AirPlay getting disconnected. As a result, the screen mirroring will stop.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If screen mirroring disconnects on your Samsung TV because it has the Screen Protection Time activated, you will have to reconnect to the AirPlay to resume the process. If you wish to avoid this in the future, turn off the screen saver feature from the settings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#x2019;s how,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 1: Go to the <strong>Settings <\/strong>menu on your Samsung TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 2: Select the <strong>General <\/strong>option and go to the <strong>System Manager.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 3: Scroll to find the option of <strong>Auto Protection Time<\/strong> and disable it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you turn the feature off, try mirroring your iOS screen to the Samsung TV. If you still run into the same problem of <strong>AirPlay on Samsung TV not working, <\/strong>you will have to resolve it another way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6. Run A DNS Diagnosis On Your Samsung TV<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/118.jpg\" alt=\"Run A DNS Diagnosis On Your Samsung TV\" class=\"wp-image-4875\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/118.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/118-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/118-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/118-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever we run into a device-related issue, we often overlook the importance of a DNS server. A DNS server is hugely essential for issueless connectivity to any website. This also holds true for applications and other connectivity options like Bluetooth or AirPlay. If you face an issue of <strong>Samsung AirPlay not working, <\/strong>running a DNS diagnosis is worth the effort.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 1: Go to the <strong>Network Settings<\/strong> on your Samsung TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 2: Select the <strong>IP Settings<\/strong> option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 3: Navigate to the <strong>DNS<\/strong> settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 4: Click to enter the DNS manually.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 5: Add these values: 8.8.8.8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 6: Save the changes and restart your TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Google DNS is one of the best options to connect to most servers. Any DNS-related issues should be resolved using this step. Once you are done with this step, ensure reconnecting to the AirPlay and mirroring your iOS or Mac screen again to your Samsung TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7. Disable Firewall On Your Mac or MacBook<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/122.jpg\" alt=\"Disable Firewall On Your Mac or MacBook\" class=\"wp-image-4879\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/122.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/122-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/122-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/122-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are trying to mirror your Mac or MacBook screen with your Samsung TV, the active firewall may be the reason why <strong>AirPlay is unable to connect to Samsung TV. <\/strong>A firewall is an excellent protection tool for network connections, but there are times when it fails to allow a specific application or access to function. To test if the firewall is the cause of the issue you are facing, disable the firewall and grant the access manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the steps to change the firewall settings on your Mac or MacBook,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Go to the <strong>Security And Privacy<\/strong> option on your Mac or MacBook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2: <\/strong>Look for the<strong> Firewal<\/strong>l option and click on <strong>Padlock<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> Provide your <strong>Admin Password<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4: <\/strong>Enable &#x2018;Automatically Allow Built-in Software to Receive Incoming Connections.&#x2019;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If this does not allow AirPlay to mirror the screen on your Samsung TV, disable the firewall and attempt mirroring. If you still have no good luck, the last resort is to factory reset your Samsung TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>8.

Samsung users can access a non-Samsung product like AirPlay because of the Samsung Smart Hub. If Samsung Smart Hub won&#x2019;t function properly, there is a high possibility that AirPlay won&#x2019;t connect to your Samsung TV. Hence, you may have to reset the Samsung Smart Hub on your Samsung TV. Since resetting Samsung Smart Hub is the same as resetting the Samsung Tv, I recommend backing up any crucial data and files.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#x2019;s how you can reset Samsung Smart Hub on your Samsung TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1: <\/strong>Go to the <strong>Settings<\/strong> option on your Samsung TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2: <\/strong>Click on the<strong> Support<\/strong> Option and select the<strong> Device Care<\/strong> option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> Scroll to the<strong> Self Diagnostics<\/strong> option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4:<\/strong> Finally, select the <strong>Reset Smart Hub<\/strong> option. Provide the PIN if prompted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the above steps, you will be able to reset the Smart Hub on your Samsung TV. The process may take a little while, so you will have to wait patiently till it finishes. Once the Samsung Smart Hub is reset, you will have to set up the entire TV again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>9.

In such cases, I would recommend factory resetting your Samsung TV. This method is the last resort to fix the problem if <strong>screen mirroring from iOS or Mac to Samsung TV is not working.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of my friends faced an issue with the <strong>Samsung 7 series AirPlay not working <\/strong>and tried almost all the possible ways to fix it. Just when he was about to give up on mirroring the screen to his Samsung TV, he factory reset his Smart TV and, to his surprise, the issue was resolved.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#x2019;s how you can reset your Samsung Smart TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Go to the <strong>Settings <\/strong>option on your Samsung TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> Click on the <strong>Support<\/strong> option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> Go to the<strong> Self Diagnostics<\/strong> icon and click on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4:<\/strong> Select the <strong>Reset <\/strong>option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 5:<\/strong> Provide the PIN if asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wait for the reset process to complete.
