Airplay and macbook pro 7.1

how can I use airplay in my macbook pro 7.1?

Airplay works on early-2011 MBP and newer. If I'm not mistaken, yours is a mid-2010, which means you just missed the cutoff.

Airplay and MacBook Pro 2010

Why is it that whenever I would like to stream something to my Apple TV from my MB Pro, I can't. My MB Pro is a Mid-2010 model and I had to buy this app to use Airplay. Why is that?

Apple very clearly states on http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/ Airplay requires a 2011 or later model. Airparrot and other alternatives exist.

Yes No mirroring before 2012. You can use iTunes only ...

Hello. I've Apple TV 3rd gen and MacBook Pro 2013 all with latest updates. AirPlay works fine till I don't start streaming videos from YouTube. After that AirPlay icon from MacBook menu bar simply disappears. Could some help. I'm using 2 Mbps internet connection.

Same issue here- I can airplay my amazon prime library just fine from my iphone 5 but on my macbook- (mavericks, 15 inch 2013 retina with quad core i7, nvidia 650 M and SSD) it just sputters and lags.
I have noticed web video is considerably worse than local content, giving me pauses of up to 2 or 3 seconds in which video stops but audio continues in the amazon player. Youku video, however, seems relatively stable. Our subscription speed is 25 mbps, so that should be plenty to stream SD video from Amazon and doesn't account for why it would be nice and stable from the iphone, but not the mbp.
Playing light, locally hosted steam sidescrollers like Limbo is better but gives periodic drops in framerate on the Tv. when mirroring the framerate remains steady on the MBP screen.
Games airplayed from my iphone seem relatively stable, though with a noticably lower framerate on the TV than on the phone.
It seems these issues have abated considerably since yesterday's Apple TV update, but are still curious nonetheless and I'm not sure that the update yesterday was specifically meant to address those issues or if I'm just getting a time with less network interference now.
Comcast recently installed a new router/modem/phone combo, replacing our old separate modem and router setup. I'm going to test if putting the network on a different channel helps.

Airplay on macbook pro 17" NOT WORKING!

Howdy all --
I've searched around on this and other forums for a solution to this problem, to no avail.
First, the specs:
Apple TV is running Apple TV Software 6.0.1 (6646.80.1) and in direct line of sight to Macbook Pro
Macbook Pro 17” is mid 2010 2.53 GHz Intel Core I5 with 8 GB RAM running Mavericks 10.9
Both are connected (strongly) to the same 802.11n wireless network
What I'm doing:
I turn on the Apple TV and go to settings —> Airplay —> turned ON
I go to my Macbook preferences, choose Displays and get the following screen — nowhere does Airplay appear in this menu!
What am I missing? It seems like my hardware and software are both too current for me not to have Airplay mirroring/desktop extension capabilities.
PLEASE HELP!

What do I need to do to play Airplay on Apple TV from my computer. The option is not in my display setting, so, obviously, I do not have the capability. Do i need to upgrade my software?

What are the differences between MacBook Pro 2008 and MacBook Pro 2012?

AirPlay Mirror in OS X Mountain Lion, allows the user to connect a MacBook Pro to a TV using Apple TV, but only if the MacBook Pro is early 2011 or newer. My MacBook Pro is 2008, 2.5 GHz Core 2 Duo with 4GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. What am I missing that would allow me to use AirPlay Mirror, and is it possible for me to upgrade my MBP to early 2011 specs?

About four years of hardware change. You csnnot upgrade your hardware. You can simply buy a new computer or find an alternative:

You need to upgrade your OS. It's your responsibility to verify if your equipment meets the system requirements, not the Apple Store.

You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.

Photostream not working on iPhone 4, but works on iPad and macbook pro

Hi there,
I've read in the community there have been similiar problems with photostream, and been going trough various answers. None have been helpful unfortunately.
I have photostream working on my iPad 2 (via 3G) and Macbook Pro. But can't get it to work on my iPhone 4 (also on 3G).
Anyone who have had the same problem who can help me here?
Regards, e.
ps. Read that photostream works only on WI-Fi... but how come it works on my iPad via 3G in that case? And I connect my macbook online via internet tethering trough my iPhone.

Hello Matt,
It sounds like you are not able to access iTunes from your iPhone 4 using Home Sharing, but you can from your iPad. I found an article with steps that I think would help with this issue.
I recommend reviewing the full article below, but I think steps 4-7 are specifically useful for what you described:

Everything is updated!! iPhone, iPad, iTunes and MacBook Pro... All I am trying to do is drag content from my iTunes Library to the devices. iTunes gets stuck EVERY single time! What usually triggers the Non-Sense is when I am adding a 2nd file!

Everything is updated!! iPhone, iPad, iTunes and MacBook Pro... All I am trying to do is drag content from my iTunes Library to the devices. iTunes gets stuck EVERY single time! What usually triggers the Non-Sense is when I am adding a 2nd file!
Why does iTunes SUCK??
1) Many items greyed out in the menu bar, for well over 2 years, maybe more!
2) I Can't drag more than one piece of content from your iTunes library to any device (iPhone, iPad)
If you do it gets stuck for HOURS and HOURS in "Preparing To Update" and the little activity circle never completes, ever!!
I used to be able to drag over 1000 tunes, movies, etc. go have breakfast come back and it would all be on my device!!
Can't do it anymore, one song at a time, maybe an album at a time, or one movie, and that is it!!
If you do a 2nd item the other items stop loading and never continue!!
This is so BAD, I don't understand how they don't have this fixed yet!!
Please tell me I am not the only one!!
...and If I am tell me how to fix it!
Very appreciated,
Joe

How do I set up LiveRig or TouchOSC with Mainstage 2.2.2? Both apps send signals but none are received by Mainstage and both the ipad 3 (6.1) and macbook pro (10.7.5) see each other via WIFI?

As I said before both app's send signals but none are received by Mainstage and both the ipad 3 (6.1) and macbook pro (10.7.5) see each other via WIFI on the network set up, which I think I did right. I have tried MIDI Disigner and Mainstage shows MIDI activiti, what can I be doing wrong?
Thanx in advance.

I agree anti-relay can be using UBE feature. However, there is serious problem in reject the spam mail. My nms is using UBE feature to stop spam mail. According to the work flow of the UBE, the mail is received by nms completely and UBE is going to invesgate the mail address. Although UBE can stop the spam mail, the spam mail have a trouble in returning the mail to the sender. The reason is the sender address is usually not existed in the world. That will cause a lot of mail waiting in the mail queue.
In my experience, do not use UBE for anti-relay.

IMac and Macbook Pro no longer connecting to the Wifi?

Hi there,
I've been in London this weekend, only to return home to find issues connecting to my wifi. Weirdly, it's only the iMac and Macbook Pro having trouble, everything else is connecting fine e.g iPad, Phone, Android Tablet etc.
I'm getting disconnected around every 20 seconds and cannot figure it out! It's so frustrating as I'm wondering if there's been an update released for OS X that it has downloaded recently? Especially seeing that when I run windows from bootcamp on my iMac, it doesn't disconnect. And I also don't believe it's an issue with the hub.
Has anyone got any suggestions? I've tried removing the network and re-adding, help for about an hour but still not much use.
Thanks, Matt

If my iphone, ipad, MAC and macbook pro are all linked, and then I upgrade only my phone to iOS 7.0, does that have an effect on my calendar, etc. It doesn't seem to be showing the same data it was before the update. Lost lot of info from calendar.

If my iphone, ipad, MAC and macbook pro are all linked, and then I upgrade only my ipone to IOS 7.0, does that have an effect on the linking to my other MAC products. It seems my calendar has lost a lot of information since the upgrade.

If you purchased Lion for your iMac, just log into the Mac App Store from your MacBook using the Apple ID under which you purchased Lion and go to the Purchases page. You will be able to download and install Lion there.
searching the internet i found a link to upgrtade to 10.7
The only place you get get Lion is from the Mac App Store. If you found some other site, that was an illegal copy and almost certainly tied to someone else's Apple ID and hence unusable by you. If the link was just to the Mac App Store, see above.
As to the problem with synchronization to iCloud, that's not a 10.6 question, so I'd suggest you take up that specific issue in either the Lion or iCloud forums, providing full details, and someone there can probably help you sort things out.
Regards.

IPhone 5s and Macbook Pro via Bluetooth??

For some reason I cannot connect my iPhone 5s with my new Macbook Pro w/ Retina Display. On both my iPhone and Macbook Pro bluetooth menus they come up but when I am on my iPhone it keeps saying, "Macbook is not supported." Why is this????

Other than Internet tethering, BT file transfer is not supported.
See supported BT profile: iOS: Supported Bluetooth profiles

My IPOD and Macbook Pro both will not connect to the Itunes store through Itunes says no internet connection, but I can connect through safari and I have a internet connection

As I mentioned above, I am not very tech savvy so I have no idea why a wireless protocol would be showing up there, I'm just listing everything I see in hopes that someone might know something I can try. This is why I am asking for help here - I'm not sure what has happened that has made me unable to connect, especially since it seemingly occured while nobody was using the computer.
I guess I should clarify that I'm not a total hillbilly- normally my firewall is set to 'on', but I set it to 'off' to try and troubleshoot the issues here as I was told that sometimes it can interfere with the computer's ability to connect to the internet. If this is not the case and firewall does not affect anything, I will turn it back on while I try to fix this.
I have tried the method you mentioned above a few times - I actually contacted my ISP earlier this week and they recommended resetting the router like that. They didn't mention any known network issues.
