How do I disable airplay on an older macbook pro?

I have an older macbook pro (model is mid-2010) with Mountain Lion installed.
When my Apple TV is on, my computer keeps trying to connect to it via Airplay.  But Airplay is not supported on my macbook pro and the sound stops working.
How do I disable my Mac from connecting to Airplay?

Do this test with the Apple TV on:
If you go into System Preferences > Sound > Output, which line is selected?
If the Apple TV is selected, can you select Internal Speakers? Will it stay on?
With Internal Speakers selected, do you get any sound output?

  • How can I transfer information from my older MacBook Pro to my new MacBook Pro?

    How can I transfer information information from my older MacBook Pro to my new MacBook Pro? Does anyone have an answer because I spoke to 2 people at Apple & both sent me the wrong cables.....

    Did they mention Migration Assistant?  You can use MA with FireWire, limit is the speed of the older unit.  MA will guide you and allow you to choose what to transfer.

  • How to make Mavericks faster on an "older" MacBook Pro?

    I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro, 2.2 GHz core i7 with 4 GB of RAM. I recently wiped my computer and restored to factory settings because it was getting slow, then I upgraded to Mavericks and it is even slower. It freezes often and takes a long time to load things. Is there any way to make it faster or improve it's function?

    Oh wow, I must be REALLY out of it, haha, don't know how I missed that.

  • How do I disable the startup sound on macbook pro 7,1?

    I need to disable the startup sound on the macbook pro 7,1 running 10.6.8.  If anyone can give me info I would appreciate it.

    Look for Startup Sound on Macupdate.com
    You really shouldn't turn it off, as if there is a error you won't be able to hear the beep codes.
    However you can lower the volume.

  • How can I disable receiving iMessages on my macbook pro?

    I recently got a macbook pro & when setting up I selected to receive iMessages on my mac and I'm now realizing how incredibly annoying it is to be on my computer and have my phone next to me and receive notifcations on both. How can I turn iMessage off on my mac?

    The two are not related.
    If you aren't receiving iMessages on your iPhone, try turning iMessage off and back on with your iPhone and/or sign out of your Apple ID with iMessage on your iPhone followed by logging back in with your Apple ID.
    If you aren't receiving text messages - SMS/MMS, you need to contact your carrier.

    Get info then check permissions then add your curent user name (it was probably different on old Mac) and give your username full read/write permissions.

  • How to connect an older MacBook Pro with mini VGA port to HDMI?

    I have an older MacBook Pro with a female mini VGA port.  I would like to watch movies which have been downloaded to my laptop on my flat screen TV.  Newer MacBook Pros have a mini DisplayPort for which Belkin makes a cable to use; however, I have not been successful in finding either an adapter or converter to use with my older laptop. 
    FYI.  Am currently using Leopard but am upgrading to Snow Leopard.

    I believe you naeed the Apple ADC to DVI adapter.

  • How do I restore a Time Machine backup from a newer MacBook Pro to an older MacBook Pro?

    My MacBook Pro is in the shop and am using my older MacBook Pro in the meantime. I want to restore my older computer with the lastest backup from my newer computer, but I'm not able to see/access the backups from my newer computer - I can only see the backups from my old computer. Any suggestions?

    That is probably due to the older computer being too old.
    You can do a manual restore to a USB drive plugged into the computer. Then select the files you want.
    See pondini Q14-17 on restore.
    http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
    Particularly 16 and 17.
    You tend to migrate from older to newer computer and OS.. and it is not going to work the other way around.
