I can see my computer on my iPad / iPhone’s AirPlay list but unable to connect

If you are having trouble connecting to the computer list in your iPad or iPhone’s AirPlay list, please follow the below suggestions to troubleshoot (usually the first 2 steps should be sufficient):

  1. Restart your iPad or iPhone (i.e., press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears, drag the slider to turn your device completely off, after the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo)
  2. Restart your computer, make sure your Mirroring360 application on your computer is up and running
  3. Make sure your Windows Firewall (or 3rd party firewall) has allowed the Mirroring360.exe application to access the network, either by:
    1. Allow Mirroring360.exe application to be trusted and applied to ‘Domain’, ‘Private’, and ‘Public’ profiles
    2. Allow the following port ranges be allowed by the firewall:
      1. TCP 6000-7000, 7100, 47000, 47010

We suspect that you might also be running some 3rd-party HTTP capturing software (e.g., HTTP Pro) that blocks non-standard HTTP web traffic thus preventing AirPlay protocol to function properly. Please configure these 3rd-party HTTP capturing software to allow AirPlay protocol to access/pass through.

In addition, please make sure your display adapter driver is up-to-date, and has DirectX features enabled.

Where can I find Mirroring360 debug log?

Often it is much more effective and helpful to attach the debug logs and crash logs (if applicable) from your computer when filing a support request to us. Right now, only the Windows version has the debug logs (MIRRORING360_SLOG.txt and MIRRORING360_SLOG.txt.bak) and it can be located under:

%USERS%\<your_windows_user_account>\AppData\Roaming\Mirroring360


Why do I keep getting an AirPlay Password prompt whenever I start mirroring?

If you have not set a password in Mirroring360 (under Settings > Advanced > Password), then it’s possible that the WiFi/wired network you are currently in have iOS management solution in place.

One example would be the Cisco’s Meraki router appliance and the ‘require password for AirPlay’ is set. To unset this option, on the iOS that is trying to use Mirroring360:

  1. In the MDM Commands section, click on AirPlay and make sure a password isn’t set
  2. Then click on System Manager > MDM Settings and click on Restrictions
  3. Uncheck the box(s) that says require passcode for AirPlay (there should be two, one for incoming and one for outgoing)
  4. And update the organization profile

Other router appliance may have similar settings/configurations that needs to be figured out.


When attempting to mirror, I see the device frame but the window is just white or black. What can I do?

One of the following will usually resolve this issue:

  1. Restart the Mirroring360 app on your computer
  2. Reboot your computer
  3. Restart your device
  4. Make sure you have the latest version of the receiver app by going to About |Check for Updates
  5. Uninstall and reinstall the app
  6. Update the video card driver on your computer
  7. Run dxdiag.exe, go to “Display” tab and check DirectX features are all “enabled”

If it still doesn’t work, please submit a support request at the bottom of this page.
