Can't view computer video on TV. Only my desktop picture

Fire connection from Mac to TV will show my desktop image but not play the video the Mac is playing.

Hi denafrommarlton,
From your description, it sounds like you currently have your external display (TV) set up as an Extended Desktop. If you would like for it to show the same thing you are currently seeing on the internal display, you would want to set it for Display Mirroring. You may find the following article about the various display modes in OS X helpful:

  • How can I view the videos of adobe flash player that apple no longer support?

        How can I view the videos from the internet and networking of adobe flash player that apple no longer support?

    Flash Player version 10.1.102.64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users. However, this Flash version won't work for many videos on Facebook, YouTube and other sites. Adobe's latest version, 10.2.x or later, is only for Intel Macs. Adobe will not provide a newer Flash version for PPC Macs.
    The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to Flash Player requiring an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I found a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
    Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

  • I can not view ANY videos on Vimeo, I have 'reset' the Ipad, original IOS 5, cleared the history and cookies, I have changed the DNS number to 8.8.8.8, I have worked on this for 2 days and still can't find a fix, HELP!!

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • I can't export my video which contains only photos, sound tracks nor play it in fullscreen iMovie it shuts down. And now my whole file won't open at all it'll open with nothing inside ??

    I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?

  • How can I view a video that requires flash player ?

    How can I view a video that requires flash player ?

    Flash is not supported on the iPad - and as Adobe have announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites have their own apps in the App Store.

  • Can hear audio, but video blacks out every few seconds; picture comes back when we hit the tv's volume button

    We can hear audio, but video blacks out every few seconds; picture comes back when we hit the tv's volume button. Everything seems to be plugged in well. The picture even starts out being sort of dim. And it goes through phases of working fine but then will randomly start blacking out again.  Any ideas?

    Have you tried turning the TV off and on again.

  • How can I view a video camera plugged into the TV tuner card's S-Video socket

    HP Pavillion Elite HPE Series desktop. TV tuner card AVerMedia H752. Video camera connected to S-Video socket. Win7 64 bit OS. How can I view the camera output? Windows Media Center does not seem to provide a means.

    Hi,
    Sorry, I don't know what are you trying to do. The Tuner card is like a TV which allow you watching TV like normal TV on your computer. The S-Video is OUT only, plugging a video camera to it won't do anything good.

  • Can't view music videos since upgrade

    Since upgrading iTunes to 10.2.1 I can no longer view music videos. I hear the music, but the window only displays the same image that's showing in Now Playing.

  • Can not view youtube videos in full screen???

    I just purchased this Macbook Air and switched from my old POS HP... This is my first day on this thing so i have no F'n clue what im doing most of the time.

  • Can not view uploaded videos

    After downloading iOS 7 I can not view the uploaded videos in my library. The video shows a gray screen and when I tap on play arrow, says "this operation can not be completed" please direct me!

    I had the same problem.  Took me a while to put two and two together.
    A work around is to use AirPlay, an iOS device (iPad, in my case), and a web browser set to identify itself as a desktop browser.  I use Atomic Web.  Works on most videos, but sometimes it's a little tricky to start playing.  Tapping the center of the video once, usually does the trick.
    Good luck. :-)

    This is th video I can't view among others? Help is much appreciated!!

    You can try one of the app/service combinations for playing Flash such as Skyfire or iSwifter. One of those might work for you.
