Why can't I airplay mirror my Mac Book Pro (new) with my TV when I play a DVD on my Mac Book?

I can see the screen from my Mac Book Pro but the DVD movie only displays as a check board on my TV. If I choose to look at my Mac Book only it works fine. BR hp

I'm not certain but I think Airplay is a non-secure protocol.
So if someone wrote a program to intercept Airplay they could potentially make a copy of that encrypted DVD you are trying to Airplay, albeit with compression and other compromises.

  • Why is it not possible to use airplay mirroring on earlier macbook pro models with Mountain Lion?

    I know there are questions alike mine, but if anybody knows some new information on this, please let us know.
    I've been looking forward to this release of the OSX, especially the built in AirPlay mirroring function for the Mac Pro, which I've been missing ever since I bought the Apple TV.
    Now finally when I went to download Mountain Lion, I accidentally search google, and find out that AirPlay mirroring is only supported on early 2011 Mac Pro and later?
    What are the earlier users going to do? I have an early 2009 model of the Mac Pro, and I just wan't to know if I'll be able to utilize the new AirPlay mirroring function or not, which determines whether or not I'm going to upgrade my OSX version
    Hope someone's got news on this one.
    Best regards, Thomas

  • AirPlay Mirroring on Mac Pro

    Can i use AirPlay Mirroring on my Mac Pro (mid 2010)?

    yeah, it is extreme, but it's a natural reaction.  It's not about just airplay, but the whole os x itself.  I'm talking about those who bought the computer(s) about a year ago or whatever. 
    I don't like the fact that Apple had to make system requirement to take advantage of those features.  I understand if the computer is about 5 years or older, because of new technologies or whatever.  I've read some comments from os x ML reviews..I understand why they are so angry.

  • Airplay mirroring on Mac Mini (late 2012) doesn't work, extended display does...

    Airplay mirroring on Mac Mini (late 2012) doesn't work, extended display does... What's going wrong here?
    Details: OS X Yosemite 10.10
    Apple TV 3rd generation, version 7.0
    Switching Airplay on on Mac Mini works. It goes automatically on extended display mode. Switching to mirroring works for about 1 sec and then it switches back to extended display mode. On my tv screen i see my second desktop. Funny detail: it has the desktop background i used previously. Another funny detail: I had exactly the same problem when i used the previous versions of OS X and the Apple TV software...
    Who can help, please!

    I also have been having problems with Airplay on my 2014 Mac Mini see Mac Mini 2014 Airplay Display Disconnect Bug?
    I"ve also noticed that my Apple TV (3rd Gen) does not appear in the iTunes Airplay list on my Mac Mini whereas it does on my MacBook.
    I've booked a call with Apple Support for next Sunday to discuss the issue.
    If I get any useful info I will pass it on.

  • Ipad 3 with ios6 can not find airplay mirror to Apple TV 3 , but my another ipad2 with ios7 can do it. But ipad 3 with ios6 can airplay mirror to my friend's apple tv

    I have two iPads . One is ipad 3 with ios 6, can not find airplay-Mirror to Apple TV 3 . But it can do it at my friend' s Apple TV.
    My another ipad 2 with ios7 can airplay -mirror at my Apple TV 3 .
    My ipad 3 64GB already full, so I don't delegate something to upgrade  to ios7 .
    I am wondering why it can do it at my friend's Apple TV, not mine

    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.

  • Why cant you do airplay mirroring on iphone 3gs

    why cant you do airplay mirroring on iphone 3gs?????

    I don't think its the CPU. That's what apple would like us all to believe.
    Seeing as Siri can be run on an iPhone 4, it proves that is incorrect.
    Anyway to answer your question the reason we can't do airplay mirroring on the iphone 3gs/4 is because apple wont let us have it. Because it was used as a new feature in the 4s. So it wouldn't look good for them to release it for older phones aswell.
    I love Apple but hate them at the same time.
    They should change their name to Marmite.

  • HT201343 I have a Mac pro with osx ml in a Ethernet connection and a apple tv with a wireless, there is no way I can see the airplay in my Mac pro

    I have a Mac pro with osx ml in a Ethernet connection and a apple tv with a wireless, there is no way I can see the airplay in my Mac pro

    Mac Pros don't support Airplay.  Only some post 2011 Macs do, MAc Pros aren't amongst them.

    You could try Airparrot software as a workaround.

  • Why can't I edit or delete Address Book "On My Mac" or sync with iCloud?

    Why can't I edit or delete Address Book cards on my Macs, now that I've migrated to iCloud?  I can edit/delete if I go to iCloud, but the changes don't sync with my Macs.  What's happening, and what's a solution?  Just wait for Apple to fix a bug?

    On your mac, if your look at the left panel of the Address Book, you'll find general categories of "iCloud" and possibly "On my mac" - if you have contacts in the latter, then they are only local to your mac, they are not shared with iCloud.  If you don't have an "iCloud" category, then your mac(s) is not set up of iCloud.  Go to system preferences and look in iCloud.  Is the mac signed into iCloud, are contacts turned on for syncing?
