  • How can i mirror my mac book pro with apple tv

    I need to know how to mirror my macbook pro with my apple tv so I can watch youtube and use my browser on my tv. So what I can see on my computer I want to see on tv. Is there a program I need or should it do it by it's self?

    If you have Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8.*), then just select AirPlay from the menu along the top of your desktop, and your computer screen should appear on a tv attached to your Apple TV.

  • How can I get the MAC address of my Apple TV?

    How can I get the MAC address of my Apple TV? I currently do not have an HDMI device to connect it to, and the MAC is not listed on the box or the Apple TV itself.
    (to answer the obvious, I am trying to pair it with an iPad, and I need to register the Apple TV for the network so the two can see each other)

    As long as I know java doesn't have support to work on link-layer, only internet and transport layers. You may write simple native code. On windows, IP Helper functions, like SendARP allow you to pass an IP address and get the hardware address. You store the hardware address on your database/file and later, when that machine is off, you send a frame to the address you stored previous.

    I haven't seen it on Linux, but if you need help let me know I'll check the Linux API's too.

  • How do I mirror my mac air to my apple TV

    how do I mirror my mac air to my apple TV

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer).
    Do you meet these requirements.

  • HT5622 We have two iphones with the same Apple ID. Since I installed iOS this morning I have started receiving all my sons texts and when I send him a text it is delivered to both of us. How can I remove my phone from the joint Apple ID and remove myself

    My son and I both have iphones with the same Apple ID. Since I installed iOS this morning I have started receiving all my sons texts and when I send him a text it is delivered to both of us. How can I remove my phone from the joint Apple ID and remove myself from finding out what he is up to during Freshers week!

    You have to use a different Apple ID for your son.

  • How can I get iCloud to accept my working Apple ID and password

    My Apple ID and password works for iTunes and App Store.  I'm trying to set up iCloud on my iPhone and iPad but i keep getting an error message that reads unsupported ID.  Apple ID must be in the form of email address (@me.com).  I don't have a MobileMe account. How can I get iCloud to accept my working Apple ID and password?

    I've also reset my password to my Apple ID. I still get the Unsupported ID and password.

  • How can I view my full billing history for the app and music stores without iTunes installed?

    I just received an email receipt from Paypal showing a $12.99 purchase from iTunes. I almost NEVER purchase anything over around five dollars in the app or music store. Since PayPal does not show what this purchase was for, I have not received the receipt from Apple yet, and I cannot find anyway to look up online what this purchase was for....I need help to find out ASAP what this purchase was. If my account has been compromised or if I have been incorrectly charged for something, I would like to get the issue handled immediately. I do not want to install iTunes on my PC (nor should I have to for Pete's sake), but I cannot see anything recent at all in my app or music history on my iPad (not that I would ever purchase anything for $12.99 anyway...I just don't). Thanks in advance for any tips!

    How can I view my full billing history for the app and music stores without iTunes installed?
    No.
    If my account has been compromised
    If you even think this may have happened, immediately change your password.

  • I'm trying to purchase extra content on some of my apps and it says "contact iTunes support to complete this transaction." how can I fix this? My credit card is valid and I've made extra content purchases before and it's worked.

    As I replied in your duplicate thread, these are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here.
    You can contact iTunes support via this page :http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then probably Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • I have problem with the security question which i forgot the answer how can i change it as i already have apple id and password

    I have problem with the security question which i forgot the answer how can i change it as i already have apple id and password

    You may reset the password on your account by opening https://iforgot.apple.com/ in Safari and entering your Apple ID (your email address, which the moderators should have removed earlier).
    You won't be able to set the password to your email address, or a recently-used password (if I remember correctly).
    Once you change your password, you should update your password on your iOS device in Settings > iTunes & App Store, then tapping the "Apple ID: <username>" cell at the top to re-enter your password.  (Your iOS device may prompt you for the new password before getting to Settings as well.)
    Hope that helps.  If you have a different issue, please post a follow-up message.

  • HT4865 i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?

    i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?

    You have to delete the old account, provide the password for the ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos that are not in your camera roll, save them to your camera roll before deleting the account (open your my photo stream album, tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward facing arrow, then tap Save to Camera Roll).

  • Can I mirror my mac book pro with apple tv like i can do with my iPad 2?

    No that's not possible

  • How can I mirror my Mac Book Pro to my TV using Apple TV 3

    Is it possible to mirror my Mac Book Pro running Lion to my HD TV which is connected to Apple TV 3?

    No, you cannot do this with Lion OS X.
    Reportedly the mirroring feature has been demo-ed with the next operating system Mountain Lion, however as yet we do not know if there will be any hardware restrictions to this feature.

  • HT4199 i can t mirror my mac book air via apple tv.

    i bought apple tv 3rd generation and have a mac book air from mid 2012. i have problems mirroring my mac to aplle tv. there is now morroring icon.
    how can i set that up ?

    First, uninstall Clean My Mac. Third party so called Mac cleaning utilities can do far more harm than good. Your Mac runs maintenance for you in the background.

    Restart your Mac after you have uninstalled Clean My Mac.
    Hopefully you have a backup of your Bookmarks so then can be reimported back into Safari ..

  • How can I mirror my macbook screen to the Apple TV through wifi?r

    I have not been able to mirror my macbook's screen to the Apple TV through the wifi. I want to do that in the classroom for more mobility of the notebook for student use. This is because I'm trying to use iPads and Macbooks in the classroom for presentations by students and the teacher directly to the TV. Is the Apple TV the best bet?

    If you are desparate, I was able to get a remote-desktop client to show my Mac's screen on my iPad, and then display that to my TV via AppleTV 2 over wifi. While it worked, it was rather slow on screen updating--you'd never be able to watch a movie for instance.
