I bought a LG webos tv and took it back. My iPhone keeps saying that the TV is something I can Airplay to when I pull up the AirPlay menu.

It’s not something that’s listed on iCloud devices that I can delete, since it’s not really an Apple device. Any ideas other than a full phone restore?

Have you tried restarting the iPhone and router? Otherwise, are you sure it's your old TV and not a neighbor's? (Does it still show up when you're away from home?)

You are unable to delete your old TV because you are opening Airplay from the control center.

Open the Remote app ➔ Devices ➔ Edit and then tap on the RED circle to the right of the device you want to delete and then choose UNPAIR.

If you do not have the Remote app then you may download it from the App Store ➔ Apple TV Remote.

Try it in Finder, press Cmd+Shift+G and enter ~/Library/Preferences/

find and move the file com.apple.airplay.plist

Reboot your laptop. Vaula.
