Airplay Mirroring on MacBook Pro mid09

I have checked and my mid 2009 2.8gz Core2Duo MacBook Pro will run Mountain Lion.  Can anyone tell me if there might be any issues using the Airplay Mirroring feature of Mountain Lion when it's running on my MacBook Pro?  i would think if Apple ok'd the system, it should work, but I don't know of any special requirements of Airplay Mirroring

Based on what I found here: http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
it will not work:
AirPlay Mirroring
Requires a second-generation Apple TV or later. Supports the following Mac models:
iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)
Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer)
I have a Mid 2010 iMac and I'm out of luck.  We will know more tomorrow.

  • What's up with the screw job on the Airplay mirroring?  Macbook Pro (mid 2010) too old to have feature included in Mountain upgrade?  Bull!

    Mountain Lion's integrated AirPlay mirroring support only works with the following Mac models:
    iMac—Mid 2011 or newer
    Mac mini—Mid 2011 or newer
    MacBook Air—Mid 2011 or newer
    MacBook Pro—Early 2011 or newer
    If your Mac isn't on that list, your won't ever see an AirPlay option in Mountain Lion's menubar.
    What separates these Macs from other Mountain Lion-compatible machines is that these are the only models that have support for Intel's QuickSync technology. What confirmed this requirement for me was the fact that my Retina MacBook Pro switched to integrated Intel HD4000 graphics even when otherwise running on the discrete NVIDIA GT 650M GPU. No matter what you are doing or what resolution you are running, AirPlay Mirroring in Mountain Lion requires an integrated Intel HD3000 or HD4000 graphics processor and its QuickSync technology to work, full stop.

  • HT1338 AirPlay mirroring 2012 MacBook pro

    Trouble shooting AirPlay mirroring , MacBook pro AirPlay mirroring icon keeps disappearing and disconnection occurs on apple tv , need help ?

    Hi!
    I figured it out! It was a firewall issue.
    I use Handsoff and I checked it before i wrote here. There was no "user defined rule" that denied the communication but when i changed to "All rules" the program displayed several rules regarding AppleTV and its IP.
    So if anybody has the same problem make sure you see all rules of your firewall and get rid of the AppleTV related rules generated by the program itself. You dont need to update to the latest iOS on the AppleTV!
    I hope that I can help some people with this info to fix the problem.

  • 6.0.1 : Apple tv lag when using airplay (mirror) on macbook pro...

    Hi,
    I have recently bought a new apple tv (october 2013) partly for airplay (mirror) with my macbook pro.
    Since the 6.0 version when i use my macbook i have some video lag..
    I updated to the 6.0.1 and since.... it's worst !
    I need your help i'm becoming crazy...
    1- My tv : Samsung UE40EH6030 LED 3D
    2- I'm using a 2011 mac book pro 2,3 GHz Intel Core i5 with 4gb memory (10.9 Mavericks)
    3- I have checked my internet connection (best canal : 11)
    Thanks

    Mac OS X 10.9.1 has fixed the problem for me.
    Pixelation is gone.
    The delay between mouse/keyboard input and display is noticible but manageable.
    Streaming video works well (with audio / video just a tiny bit out of sync).

  • Airplay Mirroring on MacBook Pro ---

    Why does the airplay icon on my MacBook Pro ( updated ) appear sometimes, but then disappears at other times?
    Wifi works and is on, Mountain Lion update is working, everything is updated. Netflix, music, etc works but overall, the icon is on half the time??

    Currently, Macs that don't support Airplay Mirrowing can use airplay in iTunes. However, any-pre 2011 Mac model cannot support Airplay Mirrowing of the desktop. Airplay in iTunes is completely different to AirPlay mirrowing in OS X Mountain Lion.

  • Airplay mirroring on Macbook Pro won't play sound

    Ok, so I just updated the Apple TV to 6.0.2. Airplay mirroring works fine on my iphone and ipad. But when using it on the MBP, it won't let me hear the sound. The output to sound for the Apple TV is selected in the Preferences. I've restarted the MBP and the Apple TV. I've also Reset the Apple TV, but still nothing is working. It's not an app or music; even when I just show the desktop, and hit the volume buttons, usually you hear the tone for the button on the Apple TV. This does nothing now. I just tried Sudo killall coreaudiod, didn't work. Please help!

    This is what the sound setting show.

  • How can i wirelessly mirror my macbook pro display to my 2nd gen apple tv?

    Hello,
    I have a new macbook pro 13" and a 2nd Gen Apple TV.  I was wondering if there is an app or a way to wirelessly mirror my macbook pro display to theapple TV without using any HDMI cables/adapters?  Is this something thatcan be done in OSX Lion via Airplay?  I cant find anything about it so iam assuming not but it seems like its something that could easily be done.
    Thanks!

  • My Apple TV is not mirroring my Macbook Pro after I installed OS X Mavericks

    My Apple TV is not mirroring my Macbook Pro after I installed OX X Mavericks?

    Installing Maverick does not change the hardware requirements.
    Did it work prior to installing Maverick?
    Does the device meet the hardware requirements? 
    Supported Macs
    AirPlay Mirroring in OS X takes advantage of the hardware video encoding capabilities of 2nd and 3rd Generation Intel Core processors.

    When I mirror my macbook pro to my apple tv the only thing that shows up is one video that's on my desktop.  How can I watch something that's online on my laptop, on my apple tv?

    Are you using mirroring or using airplay within iTunes? If you are truly mirroring then you can view anything that is displayed on your computer through Apple Tv
    Or provide more info on your issue

  • I cannot mirror my macbook pro with my tv,there is no tab to select in display settings

    i cannot mirror my macbook pro with apple tv,there is no tab to select in display settings

    That's because the mirror setting, known as Airplay does not work with Mac OS X 10.7.5.
    You need 10.8 or later and a
    AirPlay Mirroring is available with iPad 2 or later; iPad mini; iPhone 4s; iPhone 5; iPod touch (5th generation); and iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer) with Mountain Lion.

    Note, Mac OS X 10.9.2 has issues with Airplay, and is the only really secure version of 10.9 at the present time.
    Alternatives to the 10.8 restriction, and 10.9 are listed here:
