When I go to Settings - Services - Airplay - Enable Airplay “Videos” and “Pictures” support and uncheck the option to disable it and then reboot the setting appears enabled the next time I check it.
On the latest version of OSMC - just did apt-get dist-upgrade.
I’m wanting to use Airplay for audio from my iPhone on iOS 9.3.3 which apparently works now on 16.1 - see OSMC Kodi 16 Airplay - #2 by Joep
Make sure you’re on the latest version and upload the logs if issues persist.
Thanks for the reply.
Rebooted several times and the problem continues.

Can’t see any clues, but it’s not a debug log.
Your apt log shows you have a partially installed kernel. If you check this forum category you’ll see some advice on how to fix that.
Future versions (this one included) are more robust with HFS+ filesystems.

Not really sure what that means, but worth checking output of service avahi status when this happens

There was a failure in a dist-upgrade earlier but I had solved it after performing:
umount /boot
fsck.hfsplus -f /dev/sda1
mount -o force,rw /dev/sda1 /boot
I searched for ‘partially installed kernel’ and found Failed update, now "no updates available" - #4 by DBMandrake which led to the following commands and output:
root@osmc:/home/osmc# dpkg --configure -a
root@osmc:/home/osmc# apt-get -f dist-upgrade

I checked the output of:
root@osmc:/home/osmc# service avahi status
* avahi.service
Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory)
Active: inactive (dead)
However I can log into the server with ssh via
ssh osmc@osmc.local

AirPlay is pretty broken in recent iOS versions however, even for audio. But Kodi should at least present options correctly.

OSMC does show the options correctly, but only until reboot
More testing shows that the Airplay audio works after unchecking the Airplay “Videos” and “Pictures” support toggle until OSMC is rebooted - when it’s toggled back on.
(Airplay audio only works if the Wait for Network flag in MyOSMC is on though.)
Be great if the toggle could stay off after rebooting.
