HT201343 Airplay mirroring whilst using minidisplay port

Hi,
I was hoping someone could offer advice as I'm struggling to find the answer.
If I use airplay mirroring on a 2012 macbook air whilst a second external display is also connected through a minidisplay port adapter would the airplay mirroring of the macbook air display and extended desktop though minidisplay port still function correctly?
Any assistance would be much appreciated!
Thanks
Tim

for performance issues airplay mirror only works with video cards which support hardware realtime encoding of the display image stream to a H.264 stream
if the video card does not support this feature in realtime the cpu will have to decode it all the time and that take a toll on performance and make it airplay mirror (with possible delay)
the program called airparrot handle it that way and allow you to mirro to the appletv also from older computer even windows computers I think
if you wish to advice apple about such matters you should use the feedback channel

My iPad 4 does not show up on my TV screen when in AirPlay mirroring mode using WiFi. The iPad displays AirPlay set to TV with the Mirroring On (green).
My iPad IOS software is 8.2 and my Apple TV software is at 7.1. The TV displays the Apple Menu. The “Settings” does however displays the General menu allowing me to see:
Apple software: 7.1 (7003)
Apple TV: Model No. A1464, Part No. MD199B/A
Signal Strength shows 5 circles.
It does not display the iPad screen but when I use the BT Sport App I can hear the sound but there is no video. I have searched the internet for a solution to no avail. The problem first arose when the IOS was at 8.1+ but it worked correctly briefly when I updated to IOS 8.2. Can you help please?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
Restart your mobile device.

Can the last link in a thunderbolt daisy-chain be a non-thunderbolt monitor using miniDisplay port?

Can the last link in a thunderbolt daisy-chain be a non-thunderbolt monitor, using miniDisplay port?
For example, Mac mini <--> external SSD <--> apple cinema display 30" (using miniDisplay port adaptor plugged into the SSD's second thunderbolt port)

for instance STAE122 or STAE 127?
FWIW, STAE129 is the current version TB adapter
that is self powered and has TB daisy chain port.
STAE122 and STAE127 are older versions and
not the current model, though there may be stock of
these around. As to whether this will solve your issue,
I don't know.
Can I trick the Mac under Bootcamp as OS to use HDMI for the monitor? Dell officially says that the monitor can only accept 1900x1080 over HDMI, but some have fiddled wth different computers with custom settings that worked with some Monitors but mostly under Linux and to Dell 2711.
The MacMini HDMI port is hardware limited to 1980x1200.

Periodic dropping of sound using minidisplay port to hdmi

anyone else get a periodic drop in sound transferred to an external display through a minidisplay port to hdmi converter? if so, is there i a fix to this? there does not seem to be a repeatable time for it to drop, just seems like i loose about 5 seconds of audio at periodic times.

Hi, last time when i use the mini displayport to hdmi adapter, i even don't know how to make it.. It cost me 3 hours. HDMI Port combines Audio/Video Port, really good. However, it often goes wrong. So, i had to use a *[USB to HDMI Adapter|http://www.espow.com/wholesale-usb-multi-display-adapter-for-computer-a dd-on-a-second-monitor.html]* to display 1080P. And of course, usb can't keep up with Mini DisplayPort, at least at transmission speed. Sound can only come out of the mini jack audio output. Although it's more advanced, HDMI is the main stream. So, *[usb to dvi hdmi adapter|http://www.espow.com/wholesale-usb-multi-display-adapter-for-computer-a dd-on-a-second-monitor.html]* is still important for us, though it will be replaced..

IMac5,1 mirroring possible via minidisplay port?

Hi there,
I have an old iMac 5,1 2006 and a macBook pro 5,5.
Can I mirror the macbook screen onto the iMac? The thunderbolt cable I bought for this purpose doesn't fit the minidisplay port on the iMac.
Any workarounds?
Thanks

I don't recall a name, I'm afraid. There's a software product, however, called ScreenRecycler.

HT201343 Airplay Mirroring in Mac OS

Hi All,
Am wondering why am not able to do a Airplay using My Macbook Pro 2010. Support team says its a hardware compatibility issue, however am able to use Google Chromecast from chrome browser for mirroring. Whats Apple Is doing ?

HT201343 Airplay mirroring

My macbook pro 13 inch early 2011 don't have an airplay mirroring. What should I do?

if you don't run Mountain Lion you don't have mirror and
if your mac is not listed as supported you don't have airplay mirror

HT201343 AirPlay Mirroring Secondary Display Content

Can airplay mirror the contents of a secondary display on your mac or will it always be the primary display's content?

AirPlay Mirroring only streams your principal display

HT201343 AirPlay Mirroring. The ATV3 screen goes black.

When my mid MBP 2011 connects via AirPlay Mirroring. Mountain Lion. The screen goes black. It has worked before. Now it doesn't. I checked firewall, graphics switching and rebooting all devices.
Streaming via iTunes works fine. ATV3 can access my MBP's library.
thanks!

Problem solved... sorta!
It appears that Parallels 7 is not compatible with Airplay Desktop Mirroring in ML
If you remove this file com.parallels.desktop.launchdaemon.plist
inside
/Library/LaunchDaemons
then reboot.
ATV3 now works again with Airplay Mirroring.
However, it breaks Parallels. And you simply cannot put the com.parallels.desktop.launchdaemon.plist file back inside /Library/Daemons. You need to re-install Parrallels. Could be a permissions thing, but I tried to repaire and follow Parallels instructions on how to start and stop the service.
I Hope this helps save someone some time...

HT201343 AirPlay Mirroring Not supported - After downloading OS X Mountain Lion I found out that AirPlay is only Supported for Mid 2011 or newer iMacs - Is there a workaround

I got a new Apple TV for Christmas, I read tha the OS X Mountain Lion supported AirPlay with the Apple TV, so I paid for the OS upgrade. After the upgrade I found out that AirPlay is not supported on iMac's older than mid 2011. This ***** because this was the only reasion I needed the upgrade, It should have been more clearly posted that the features of the new OS were only supported on specific machines!
Short of buying a new iMac is there a way to use Airport Mirroring from my iMac to the TV ?
What other Mountain Lion features don't work on a late 2009 iMac ?

First, if you would have visted http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/ you would have seen there is a VERY LARGE and IN BOLD section that covers what functions of 10.8 are limited to what macs. Second "needed the upgrade"... spare me.
To your, "work around" question a lot of people report a third party app named "air parrot" as pretty reliable. You're welcome to try your luck with that.

HT201343 airplay mirror only 1 desktop and work on the other

I want to only mirror one desktop to watch a show and switch back to my other desktop to do work. Is this possible with airplay? If not, is there another option/software that does this (like airparrot or another tool)?
Thanks!

What program are you using to watch a show? If it's iTunes, can't you use normal AirPlay (not mirroring)?

HT201343 AirPlay Mirroring problems

Why airplay mirrowing does not work on an i7 processor iMac 11,1 with osx 10.8. It was to be a feature on 10.8.

Forgot the link that explains!
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3761

HT201343 Airplay mirroring switched off, and still connecting. (OSX MLion, MB-Air 13")

I tested the mirroring, it was very glitchy, but thats not my concern. My problem was switching mirroring OFF, and it reconnecting on its own while roomates watched TV. They watched me write emails, open iTunes, and then sent me images of me writing the email. Funny, but not.

Thank you so much wchp, this is brilliant. I have had this annoying problem for a long time. I eventually rang Mac support, they did not know how to fix the problem as you have suggested so they instigated many hardware replacements which eventually left my iMac severely crippled. They eventually replaced it with the latest model. But I spent two months working with a disabled computer which really interfere with my work.
Your solution appears to have solved my problem, at least so far, but I am hopeful that it is a permanent fix. I hope that your suggestions are taken up by Apple support. This may solve many users problems and avoid Apple making expensive fixes that don't actually work.
I thought that the new iMac would not have the 'Wake up from sleep by painting in the login window' problem but it did, this really annoyed me. Anyway now the problem appears to be solved, it's not I will repost and keep working on it. Thanks again.
