2. Solutions to AirPlay Problems

Check Wi-Fi on your iOS devices and PC

There might be some issues about the Wi-Fi network of your iOS devices or PC if AirPlay doesn’t appear on the Control Center when iOS Recorder has been launched. Note that iOS devices and PC must be connected to the same smooth Wi-Fi network. If it doesn’t work, you need to restart your Wi-Fi to have a shot.

Please note that corporate networks may often block many port numbers from communicating across networks. Therefore, you are required to let your technician allow TCP ports 36666, 36667, 6000 and 6001 to be open for connection. Plus, Apowersoft iOS Recorder won’t likely work across subnets or VLANs unless special steps have been taken.

Check Firewall on Computer

AirPlay problems can be also caused by Windows Firewall’s blocking some functions of Apowersoft iOS Recorder. If so, you need to raise the blockade manually. Proceed as follows:
On your PC, open “Control Panel” > “System and Security” > “Windows Firewall” > “Allow an app or feature through Windows Firewall”, then you can find Apowersoft iOS Recorder on “Allowed apps and features”. Tick the “Private” and “Public” boxes to allow this app to communicate through Windows Firewall.

Check Bonjour Service on PC

Bonjour Service is a LAN network service developed by Apple Inc. which is installed when you download and install iTunes on your PC. If there is no Bonjour Service on PC or this service is damaged，then AirPlay problems on your iOS devices can arise when you run iOS Recorder. Here’s the solution.
Please make sure that you’ve installed iTunes on your computer and then examine the Task Manager to see if there is the service or not. Hold down “Ctrl + Alt + Delete” on keyboard or just right-click on the taskbar to open the Task Manager. Check Bonjour Service within “Services”. If it’s running, you may right-click it and select “Restart” to have a try. If it has stopped, you need to right-click it and start this service. If there’s no Bonjour Service under “Services”, then you have to manually download one on your PC.
