I am really frustrated - is it possible to view a DVD that is playing on my iMAC, on my HDTV through Apple TV??

I have been trying to figure out how to view a DVD movie that is playing on my iMAC, onto my HDTV through Apple TV... I am not getting the "conventional" Apple TV icon on my IMac Screen. I have the AirplayIt app ... Can anyone assist?

Firstly, not all Macs will do AirPlay mirroring.
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). You can see which Mac you have and which operating system you are using by selecting 'About this Mac' from the Apple menu in the top left corner of your Mac and selecting the 'More Info' button.
Secondly, Apple's DVD application blocks AirPlay use for licensing reasons, you would need to use a third party DVD application such as VLC.

  • Is it possible to view 2 documents side by side on an iMac screen

    is it possible to view 2 documents side by side on a macbook air

    Apple has made this ever so slightly difficult in Pages 5 because the Format sidebar is a size XXXL, attached to every single window, and is one of the most egregiously awful User Interface designs I have seen in a long time. You can close the format sidebar, but since you need it for just about everything you do, and given its Disneyland size tush, it is in the worst possible position on the side, it rapidly gets worse as you open/close, open/close, open/close, open/close, open/close, open/close, open/close, open/close…
    Pages '09 has one compact Inspector window that can be opened and closed with a shortcut and covers all open and active windows.
    It is just my total lack of experience with UI and obvious lack of genius that makes me think this. So many take one quick look at the New!, Improved! Fat Free! Pages and say where have you been all my life? I am home. This is me. Not getting much work done, and still as confused as to what anything does, but look at me clicking on buttons! Oh look I just found another one! Look lots more hidden away everywhere… this is fun!

  • [URGENT] Really frustrated over 'Not Charging' Err...

    Hi,
    I have Nokia x6 16gb and when I plug it to charge it it shows 'Not Charging' which is really frustrating :/ 
    I use the charger that came along with my phone, I also used the charger which came along with another Nokia Phone (Both Orignal Chargers) and still this happens.
    I had this problem before (Oct'13) but I pulled out my sim and then charged it and it worked, I tried the same again but no results.
    When I open my phone, I have an app (iON Battery Charger) which displays my battery charge to be 7% but after I plug in my charger, after it displays error the App says 'Battery API Error'.
    I have over a hundred problems with my x6 but I'm living with it but this one is serious.
    Please help its Urgent. 

    We understand. If there's a Nokia Care Point near your location, you may consider bringing the phone in to possibly test it with another battery. In the event it's identified that the issue is with the phone, it has to be evaluated by the authorized technicians.
    You may visit the below link to select your local Nokia support site for repair instructions/store locator:

    Hi,
    Is there an iPhone involved ?
    If not, what happens  if you remove the Apple ID on the iPad and then set it in Airplane Mode (allow a couple of minutes at this point) followed by re-adding the Apple ID ?
    What, if any error messages are appearing on the Mac when you try to launch the App or Login to the iMessages server ?
    Is the Apple ID linked to an iCloud account ?
    In Messages 7 (Mountain Lion) this did not seem to be important but it seems it is in Mavericks/Messages 8

It''s really frustrating I have tried for more than 4H, and the problem is not about the apple ID. I can download apps with the apple ID, which means IMessage is the problem! I restarted my iPad, I logged in and out of the apple ID in the store, AND YET IT STILL WON'T WORK, PLEASE HELP!

    Hi Vmanfromusa!

  • How do you isolate an album or artist in the new iTunes? (12.0) It is really frustrating when trying to listen to one album and I get the album in the list with all 1,025 other albums in my library.

    Welcome to the  Discussion Forums
    ... I assumed that if I played the 1st track, it would continue to play the rest of the album (as iTunes does on my Macs and PCs),...
    You assumed correctly, and it should continue to play the rest of the album in order. Does this happen to all your albums. Have you tried restarting the tv.

  • I'm getting really frustrated and could use some help

    Hello there!
    I'm  not sure what happened because when I plugged in my ipod today (I have an 8g ipod touch) everything was reset to the basics in itunes. My entire library was delted. Honestly I'm not really that upset by that as I was going to change out all of my music anyways.
    My problems are as follows:
    I can no longer add more than 1 folder at a time.
              -How can I change it to where I can add multiple folders again?
    When I do add a folder it now automatically takes me out of the adding music on your ipod spot (sorry I don't know how else to describe that page) but it takes me out of there and automatically creates a playlist and starts to play the folder I just added.
              -How do I stop it from creating playlists automatically? I absolutely hate playlists. I've never used them and I don't forsee myself useing them anytime           soon.
              -How do I stop it from automatically playing the songs/folders I add?
              -How do I stop it from taking me out of the ipod page and into the playlists page?
    My ipod NEVER used to do any of this before so I'm really not sure why all of that changed and why I can't change it back.
    My audiobooks tab is gone.
              -How do I bring this back so I can audiobooks again?
    I've spent the last couple of hours sifting through manuals, let me tell you 138 pages is a lot to go through, forums and google and a lot of technical jargon and acronyms. All in all, I'm having a heck of a time finding exactly what I need to help me out and I admit I am starting to get really frustrated.
    The other day it was so easy, add a couple of folders to the library, select them hit apply and VOILA all was golden. Today, not so much.

    I'm still having troubles getting the audio books to appear.
    Heres what im selecting.
    and then the books tab is still not appearing.
    and then as far as adding folders here is what I am doing.
    this was how i had it before. it gives me mroe control to choose what i want to add.
    that is where i go to add the folder, like i did before.
    selecting the folder like normal.
    then this box immediatly pops up. not allowing me the option to select and apply any music i may have added.
    the music starts playing and it takes me to the playlist page.
    but when i click on the ipod icon and go back into this area. the folder is there.
    all the steps ive just shown you is how i have ALWAYS done this ever since i got my ipod. Ive never had any of these weird problems utnil today.

  • Ipod classic 160GB very slow sync and cannot connect to itunes store windows 7 ansd itunes 10.6.0.40. I have now been trying for 3 weeks to restore my iPod. Really frustrated, any ideas would be welcome.

    Cured the problem! Reinstalled an earlier version of itunes from oldapps.com (version 10) now everything works as it should. I would suggest that if you are experiencing these problems that you do the same. I must say that it is a brave business decision on behalf of apple to effectively lock out all windows 7 users from their products and sales channels and I can only wish them luck in this very shortsighted policy.

    (A) Reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.
    (B) Reset all settings
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
    Note: Data will not be affected but settings will be reset.

    Reinstall iTunes. Make sure you follow the instructions in this support document to the letter. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923.
    You may have some problems because Apple has not certified that everything works with Windows 8 yet.

  • My iPad is not letting me make new calendar entries, says calendar is not set - but I'm still able to make entries on my iPhone and then that entry appears on iPad.....but then I can't edit it, or add information. Really frustrating ....it worked before.

    Hoping someone can help me with this?
    My iPad calendar is not working, yet the iPhone calendar is fine. When I make an entry into iPhone the iPad gets it ...but then I'm unable to edit or alter the entry at all.
    Really frustrating, because all worked fine up until a few days ago ...panicking now because I'm not sure I can trust my calendar (which I rely on heavily).
    If anyone has any ideas as to how to fix this bug, please reply.

    It is locked to your sisters carrier.
    She would have to ask her carrier if they unlock iPhones and if she qualifies for this service.
