Airplay Mirroring between MacMini (without Monitor) and ATV

Hello,
i´m using the Mac Mini only as a Server in the storeroom. I did´t connect a Monitor to the Mini. If i want to change something on the Mini
i´m using VNC (iPad) or Screen-Sharing (iMac)!
Now i want to use the Airplay Mirroring function to stream video/audio to my Apple TV in the living room or Bedroom. I want to use some
streamingservices like HBO (in Germany it´s called RTL-Now.de a flashed based TV-Channel) or sometimes i want to use Safari on the big screen.
I only get the audio by Airplay Mirroring. The video signal ist bad. There are crazy colors on the TV (look the picture).
I try to solve the problem my changing the Airplay Setting (Resolution, optimize for ATV...). I changed the video settingt in ATV to auto but no success.
Do you have a idea?
Bastian

It only works when there is a Monitor connected to the mini! If not you see the result in my picture.
The question to Apple: Why?

Airplay mirroring between my MacBook Pro and Apple TV (1080p one) has always worked fine until now. I only sometimes get video but usually just audio. Has anyone experienced the same issue?

When using Airplay mirroring between macbook pro and apple tv I cannot see video, only hear the audio. Worked fine before. Any suggestions on what the problem could be?

I have the exact same problem. The picture is very slow, incredibly pixelated... and renders my apple tv virtually useless until this problem gets resolved. I currently have an apple tv 3, ipad retina, iphone 4s, and a 2011 macbook air. I use the apple tv almost exclusively for mirrored content. And this is definitely causing quite a problem for me.
I had been able to use this for presentations as well- but until this problem gets resolved - I may have to look for a backup solution/product. And I imagine that I'm not alone in this... Please get this resolved quickly!

HT204291 The Apple sales rep told me I could use Airplay Mirroring between my iPad2 and AppleTV via bluetooth and I didn't need wifi. Is that true?

No. AirPlay is via Wi-Fi.

How to mirror between the production server and the multiple local servers.

I am currently looking for the best way to correspond between our production server and the multiple local servers. Because the production server is the only server that holds the latest updating applications, and our local servers are located for each developer’s local machines where the all modifications and creations are done. So when the developer locally makes changes for assets or files, he creates a patch archive first, then accesses to the production side Administration console screen and imports them from Application Management screen.
We tried to find a way to see the imported date before (so we know which one has been imported as new.), but there is no show in the Administration console Application Management screen. There is Creation date but it’s set as we initially imported the full archive files, but not patch files. Since between applications have some types of the dependencies (like fragments or image files), what is the best way to keep mirroring between the production server and local servers? Or we should simply not use patch file for updating server?
Thanks,

HT4437 how to use airplay mirroring between ipad3 and apple tv without any internet or wifi

I do presentation and a lot of the time, there is no wifi or internet connection available in the room (school, church, community center).
Is there a way to use airplay mirroring so I can use my powerpoint or my keynotes from my ipad to the apple tv?
I also have a macbookpro, I know there is a way to create your own network with the macbookpro, how don't remember how, but would prefer not to have to carry my macbookpro.
thanks
Christian

You can stream the content with a local connection. You dont need "internet", but need to connect the apple tv to a wireless router(plugged in with no internet) or hardline. Then connect the ipad wirelessly to the same router. Its a basic internet setup without the "internet ethernet cord" plugged in.

AirPlay Mirroring via ATV3 really laggy and awful sound

Hey all,
I'm a bit frustrated, I got the new MacBookPro 15" retina (i7 2,6 Ghz, 16 Gb RAM) and also bought the new AirPort Extreme and an Apple TV 3 gen.
Now all 3 devices are in the same room few meters away from each another (no thick walls, no microwaves, nothing i can think of that can interfere).
5Ghz N network enabled and the MacBookPro and the ATV are on it, while the iPhones (mine and my wife's) and her white MacBook (+ a 1st gen Time Capsule 1Tb running as a network extension in another room) are on the 2,4 Ghz network (Just connected nothing is downloading, back-uping or anything). I have all other applications except the video player (VLC) quit and yet i cannot watch anything because of the massive lag.
Tried different video formats (encodings) and video files resolution but it doesn't seem to make any difference. Tried restarting the Airport station, the ATV and my MacMookPro and it didn't help. There are few seconds now and then when it doesn't lag but then the audio really gets bad.
All firmware and OSs are fully updated. ATV3 is not jailbreaken. All used applications are final versions.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.
Alex
P.S.
Sometimes the connection between the MacBookPro and the ATV just drops and I have to wait untill they reconnect and then restart AirPlay Mirroring before I can continue watching. I have the feeling this might be part of the same problem whatever it is.

Thanks for the suggestions, but...
Apple TV is, as advertised by Apple, to be fully capable of streaming full HD ( 1080 p) over an N standard wifi network. I'm aware of more than 1 set-ups (including my brother's home) where the ATV is set in absolutelly the same conditions (even with the same hardware) and works just fine.
Are you suggesting the AirPort Extreme Base Station is "low to mid grade wifi hardware"? What would you substitute it with?
All devices described (except the iPhones) are on the 5Ghz network. Swithing them (all, including the ATV) to 2,4 Ghz changes nothing.
Well, the TV set is in a location in the room that I can't easily set a UTP cable to (where it is not visible), AND I hate cables. If I wanted a cable I'd use an HDMI to connect the MacBookPro to the TV directlly, which will defeat most of the purpose of having the ATV.
Apple made this quite awkward. I would love to run all my videos with only one player (especially airplay enabled one like iTunes), but unfortunatelly I can't. I have to convert them all to iTunes format first which is pain in the *** and I'm just not going to do it, and no one else is doing it either, btw. That's why I'm using VLC (being imho one amazing video player) that would just play anything you drop on it.
So, any other ideas what I'm doing wrong?

AirPlay mirroring with iPod Touch 4g and iTunes

Can I use AirPlay on iOS 6.1.5 ( iPod touch 4g ) to iTunes 11 ( Windows XP )?
If yes, can I play certain games (e.g. Minecraft)
Thanks,

The only way to AirPlay an iPod to a Windows PC is with
Reflector - AirPlay mirror your iPhone or iPad to any Mac or PC, wirelessly.
but that requires a 5G iPod

You can AirPlay videos, music, or photos from a variety of different locations on your iOS device, including from within the Photos, Videos, Safari, and Music apps, or directly from recently used apps.

Airplay Mirroring shows only black screen on ATV

I have a mid 2011 MacBook Pro and a 3rd generation Apple TV. When I installed Mountain Lion a couple of weeks ago and tried out Airplay Mirroring, it worked fine.
I wanted to try it out again today, but it doesn't work anymore. When switching to Airplay Mirroring by clicking on the icon in the menu bar, the Apple TV turns black and I am getting the color wheel on the MBP ever time I get to the menu bar. The Airplay Mirroring button is unresponsive and the only way to get the color wheel to go away is to restart the MBP.
I've already restarted the Apple TV multiple times, as well as my Time Capsule.
When streaming videos from within iTunes using AirPlay, everything works fine. Also AirPlay Mirroring from my iPhone works fine.
Anyone have any suggestions what could be the cause of the black screen and MBP crash?

Just chiming it that I have the very same problem. I bought an AppleTV yesterday. I have an early 2011 MacBook Pro running OS X 10.8.2 (Is that Mountain Lion, or Lion? Whatever, it's the latest OS. Stop with silly names Apple - just versions OK - I digress). I have 2.7 Ghz Core i7 processor and 8GB of RAM. So, I am within specs for AirPlay mirroring.
So, it mirrored once fine. I logged out of the MacBook and into another account, and it would show a blank screen on the TV. Thought it might be something with parental controls or something, so logged back into my account, and now all we get is a blank screen. Reboots of the AppleTV do nothing. Went ahead and installed the latest firmware on the AppleTV.
All other AirPlay devices work fine. I can stream from my iPhones.
This is so not like Apple to have such a buggy feature shipped with a device. I probably wouldn't use it that much, but don't put it in there if it doesn't work right. There are several threads on this topic, so it's not a unique problem.
Also, Photostream for AppleTV is poo poo, too. Another topic.

Airplay Mirroring FAIL ON NEW IPAD AND EARLY 2O11 MBP HELP! But pass with IPHONE 4 S!!!

Hi marcmartineau,
I'm not sure why this is happening, but I think I'm seeing the same thing. Many times when I get an email on the iPad or iPhone with a picture attached, I don't see the picture but instead just a placeholder icon.
I have found a work around though to at least see the picture. If I forward it and include the attachment, I see the picture in the outgoing email. I can even save the image from the sending email if I really don't want to send it. If i do send it to myself, chances are I will see the picture in the email when I receive it even though it's just a resend of the original.
weird.

HT201335 AirPlay Mirroring is working from iPad and iPhone, but not from Macbook Pro. How to fix?

I can see and activate AirPlay Mirroring from Macbook but nothing displays on the TV when mirroring is activated (screen changes from Apple TV menu to blank screen only). I have 3rd generation Apple TV and a brand new Macbook Pro, so AirPlay Mirroring is supported by both devices. I can display video content on the TV from my MacBook from iTunes by selecting to display on Apple TV instead of my computer, but it does not work for mirroring.
For reference, when I activate AirPlay Mirroring from iPad or iPhone, it works perfectly and content is displayed on my TV.
Has anyone else had this problem and know how to fix it?

Select two or more photos, print and select the paper size and photo print size (do the math to be sure they will fit), if the preview does not show the two photos click customize and under settings select multiple photos per page. The preview will reflect this selection

Differences between BT Broadband monitor and HH3

Since joining BT I have had no problems with drop-outs or bandwidth speed. I am on Option3 (unlimited) and the only niggle I have is the disparity between the usage reports from the HH3 and the online broaband monitor. In one 3 day period the hub reported 2.9 Gb downloaded whereas the online monitor showed a jump of about 28Gb. I have four machines running through the hub and none of those have been running any downloads or streaming media, mainly email, Facebook & MSN Messenger chat. I'm going to insert another router between the network and the H3 to see what exactly is passing through. Has anybody else seen anything like this?

Hi CDAnderson, Welcome to the Forums
The Homehub's usage counters reset everytime the hub reconnects/restarts. Had your homehub disconnected in that 3 day period?

Airplay mirroring and external monitor

I have an Macbook Pro 15 that I just bought. I am airplay mirroring to a external monitor. I have a bluetooth keyboard and touchpad. When I close the lid on the Macbook after I get the mirroring started, the external monitor goes blank. When I open the laptop back up, I cannot get anything on the internal screen. I cannot get it to do anything at all and then I just have to power it down and restart to get anything on the computer screen again. I would like to know if what I am doing is possible? Can you airplay mirror and then close the case on the laptop. THanks

Here is what I just made work for me - and it isn't perfectly what I want, but at least my students will be able to see what I am coding.
In the Accessability Panel's Zoom settings I changed from Full Screen to Picture-In-Picture style zooming.
This works, but I would rather have a full screen zoom.
A side note: The cursor size, and grey scale work, but the color inversion and high contrast settings do not work on the mirrored display.
It seems strange.

AirPlay mirroring issue "No Device Detected" with MBP2011 and ATV2

I upgraded my MBP (early 2011) to Mountain Lion. I have an ATV2 (v4.2.1 software). I am trying to AirPlay mirror from the MBP to the ATV but am getting a greyed out "No Device Detected" drop down. Both MBP and ATV2 are on the same network.

The issue is the "Projectors" as well (VGA projectors even DVI), Now Apple is asking all Universities, Colleges and High Schools to spend millions of Dollars to replace all their Projectors so students and professors they can install Mountain lion in order to run their presentations...Apple Mail still with BBC Bug, and many other bugs are not fixed yet because their nightmare Steve Jobs who was push on them to fix these bugs is not alive, and yes they can do anything bad to destroy Apple.
Mountain Lion is CRAP same thing as LION, Apple is doing worse and worse until Samsung will create a good machines for Microsoft, then Steve Jobs will wake up from his grave asking the bad administration of Apple why they are destroying it with such CRAP!!
