I can't play a DVD from my superdrive via my macbook pro to apple TV via airplay.

I can't play a DVD from my superdrive via my macbook pro to apple TV via airplay.  The movie plays fine on the macbook if I'm not trying to airplay.  The airplay works fine if I'm not trying to play a movie from the superdrive.  I think my apple TV is Gen 2.

If you get a checkerboard pattern it's because Apple block Airplay Mirroring of protected media.
VLC Player may work.

  • IDVD CAN  I PLAY A DVD FROM MY MAC ON TO MY TV ?

    PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP
    CAN I PLAY A DVD FROM MY MAC ON TO MY TV BY CONNECTING IT SOME HOW ?

    Hi
    Does Your Mac have a S-video out ? Some does.
    The way to connect isn't easy or straight forward - I use a S-VHS VCR in between
    and now one can buy a DVD-player for less than $75-50 I wonder if it's really
    worth the hazzle.
    Playback from iMovie via FireWire and an Analog/Digital box to TV is one way
    but then the DVD has to be converted to streamingDV.
    iDVD can't deliver out to FireWire
    DVD-player not so either
    And PLEASE ! Don't shout (using capital letters = Shouting on e-media)
    Yours Bengt W

  • I can't play certain videos from the internet on my macbook

    I can't play certain videos from the internet on my macbook.
    When using Sarfari or Google Chome, I am unable to play some videos on the internet. News clips, posted videos on blogs, and tv episodes from their own network websites. Youtube videos are fine. I doesn't make sense.
    I tried downloading an update for quicktime, but the computer claims that quicktime is up to date. Yet, the videos and tv episodes don't play.
    I have checked for the most recent software updates, and everything is up to date. Nothing is wrong with the hardware either.
    Any suggestions would be awesome! Thank you!

    In addition to Flash, you might need some other plugins.  Microsoft videos are mostly in Silverlight, and you'll want Flip4Mac to play WMVs.  Perian contains codecs for pretty much every video online.

  • I have a MacBook Pro 6.2 and a Samsung HPT5054 HD TV. Can I play a DVD from my Mac to my TV with an adapter and an HDMI cable or do I need an audio cable also?

    Can I watch a DVD o my TV from my laptop with an adapter and HDMI cable or do I need an audio cable as well?

    A seperate audio cable isn't required for your MBpro model.  It will send audio over the HDMI cable if you use the proper MiniDisplay port to HDMI adapter that supports audio.

  • Transfer iTunes play count data from old laptop to new Macbook Pro

    I have just purchased a macbook pro. Previously I had a Dell laptop running Windows 7. I had stored all my music on an external harddrive, I have successfully transferred my music to my new iTunes library. However, all the songs have no plays, is there any way I can transfer this data to my new macbook?
    I also need to transfer iPad 4, iPod Classic and iPhone backups to the mac.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Also I would like to transfer all the data such as the start and end times for each song.

  • Can I play call of duty on my new 13inch macbook pro corei7?

    I bought my new macbook pro 13inch corei7 2 month ago.
    in "Tech Spec" we see this : " Graphics     :                               Intel HD Graphics 3000 processor with 384MB of DDR3 SDRAM shared with main memory "  and no memory graphics!!  Is it mean that I can`t play video games like fifa games and call of duty?
    I`m actually sad right now! I wish I`ll run that games on my laptop....
    Answer me please....

    No.
    If you wanted a 3D gamers laptop, you needed a 15"/17" 2.2/2.3 Ghz with the Radeon 6750M in it. (scores 30)
    The 15" 2.0 Ghz scores 18.
    Your best option now since you blew your wad on the 13" MacBook Nothing, is to get yourself a PS3 or a Windows 7 64bit 4GB RAM expandable desktop machine and a 3D gamers card.
    Were as your Intel HD 3000 scores a measly 11 on the Cinebench scale, you could get a Windows tower and peg it out at up to 90 with the right video card.

  • MacBook Pro died, can I restore back up from previous OS to New Macbook Pro with Mavericks on it?

    My son's (grad student) MacBook Pro's logic board went out two weeks ago. We have a new one coming tommorrow, which has Mavericks.
    His back up from the older computer has the previous operating system - is he going to run into any problems restoring his data with the different operating systems?

    You shouldn't. That's the reason for having a backup.
    The best way is to use Setup Assistant when you get the new Mac. For details read this from the late Apple Support Communities contributor Pondini:

  • Why is music streamed from my MacBook Pro to Apple TV via AirPlay choppy?

    I'm trying to stream music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my new Apple TV via AirPlay, but the music is extremely choppy, cutting in and out. It's completely unlistenable. However, I can use AirPlay to stream from my Macbook Pro to my Pioneer VSX 1021 AirPlay enabled receiver with no issues. Additionally, I can stream from my iPhone or iPad to the Apple TV without these issues. Therefore it would appear wifi bandwidth is not the root cause. I'm stumped. Help!

    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first.

  • HT3775 I can not open video shot from my Iphone on my MacBook Pro?

  • How can I stop net gear from blocking websites on my MacBook Pro 10.9.1?

    This problem only started occurring after I upgraded to Mavericks recently. Many sites I visit are now "blocked by NetGear." I'm wondering why this is happening and what I can to do stop it.

    You want to look for settings categories like:
    Service blocking
    Web site blocking
    Parental controls
    Access restrictions
    I don't know what they are actually called on your router because my router is not Netgear brand, but what you are looking for will sound something like those. If you find that blocking or restrictions are turned on, even if you don't remember changing them, they will need to be turned off.
    These options will not be in the section for setting up the wireless network. These options are general settings that apply to machines connected whether wired or wireless.

    Open Terminal and type or paste:  drutil eject and press enter, quit.
    Might just be a bad DVD or it could contain a different form of copy protection that the Mac doesn't understand yet. Use a older DVD's and try them out, if you still have the same problem then you can try as much as you can of the fix list here or take your machine in for service.
