AirPlay with Mac Mini and iPad Mini?

I recently got an Apple Mac Mini. It uses OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 and is much better than my old one. When I try to use AirPlay on it, the only displays that show up are the Apple TVs around the house. I would like to connect it to my iPad Mini (iOS 7.1.0), but it doesn't show up. Am I able to connect it to my iPad or is something wrong?

An iPad is not an AIrPlay receiver while an Apple TV is. There are apps availabe in th eApp store that allow you to use an iPad as a secondary monitor for a computer. Here is one:

    Is it OK to use with an iPhone 5s and ipad mini?
    My worry is it'll damage the battery. It charges sooooo much quicker than the standard charger.

    Who knows ,if you want to charge faster get the Apple 12w charger that is compatible with all iOS devices
    Then you don't have to ask is it safe ,it's made by Apple for their devices

  • Imessage issue with Iphone 5 and Ipad mini

    I recently upgraded my phone from the Iphone 4 to the 5s and ever since it was activated, I have stopped received imessages on my Ipad mini. iMessages used to be delivered to both devices. For some addional context, I have tried sending messages from my ipad and contacts report that it comes from my email address now rather than my phone number, however, I never made any changes to the settings the ipad, the only change was the activation of my new phone. I did go in to Settings>messages on my Ipad, and I message is on, and under send/recieve all I see is my email address, but it will not allow me to add a phone number. Can anyone help me? I'd love to have my messages be delivered to both devices again.

    log out of imessages on all devices.
    log back in on the iphone and wait until the phone number has activated.
    then log back into imessage on the ipad and then select to send and recieve from the phone number and to start new conversations from the phone number

  • Are regular iPad minis and iPad minis with retina display the same size?

    I am deliberating what case to buy, and i need to know if they are the same size, Thanks!

    iPad mini Retina:
    Height: 7.87 inches (200 mm)
    Width:5.3 inches (134.7 mm)
    Depth:0.29 inch (7.5 mm)
    iPad mini:
    Height: 7.87 inches (200 mm)
    Width: 5.3 inches (134.7 mm)
    Depth: 0.28 inch (7.2 mm)
    Source: http://www.apple.com/ipad/compare/
    The depth (thickness) is the differing factor here. Most cases should work just fine. Some cases (especially the snap on back covers) *may* not fit because of the increased (.3mm/.01") thickness. The snap-on back (Best Buy/Rocketfish snap-on back shield) was a bit tight on my mini Retina but It was nothing I'd call a real issue. This is the type of case that may not fit or be tight because they wrap around the edges and snap onto the front of the mini's beveled corners. There is also an additional microphone on the iPad mini Retina. Original mini cases likely won't have this hole on the back. I don't know how critical that microphone is but in my situation, I simply drilled a small hole in the case back.

  • IPad Mini with RD and ipad mini

    hello again...
    At last i ordered for 32gb ipad mini with retina display. Yet to receive...
    And there now is a small voice in side my heart which says that price comparison b/w iPad mini with retina display and iPad mini is considerably more. I feel that is it worth giving more money for retina display'?..
    Could anybody help me to stop that voice..
    And my choice of 32gb ipad mini with retina dispaly is fine against iPad air with all its light weight and all other fascinating features??...
    Thanks,

    I Have the same problem. It started with using Safari, so I posted a question and then advised to do a cold reboot(home button +  power button), it helped fix some other bugs, but not the reboot. I also reset all settings in system Settings. It fixed some more bugs, but reboots still happen on YouTube app now. I think this may be a modem driver problem, because it only happened to me when I was communicating with the Internet.
    BY the way, the keyboard after iOS 8 update ***** too. It gets stuck on Cap and double-letters occasionally.

  • Issues syncing iPhone 5 and iPad mini with outlook calendars

    I am having issues syncing my iPhone 5 and iPad mini with Outlook calendar.  This is a new problem since I upgraded to IOS 7.  I am now using ios 7.0.2.  I have removed air sync for calendars and that has not resolved the issue.  Nothing new on my calendar is syncing to my phone or ipad.  Any suggestions?

    To use AirPlay, you need these:
    iPhone 4 (or later), iPad, iPad mini, or iPod touch (4th generation or later)
    For videos or photos: Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation)
    For music: Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation), AirPort Express, or AirPlay-enabled speakers or receivers

  • How do I get iMessage on my Mac and iPad Mini to send from my phone number instead of email?

    How do I get iMessage on my Mac and iPad Mini to send from my phone number instead of email? I've signed out and signed backed in on all devices but it still doesn't work. Phone number shows up on my iPhone only. Apple support article does not help, the screen don't even match mine.

    Hi believer924,
    Happy Holidays!  What version of Mac OS are you working with?  The article below will explain how to confirm your phone number is linked to your Apple ID for iMessage.  On your Mac, you should be able to remove the checkmark in front of your email address in the "You can be reached by iMessage at" and "Start New Conversations from" sections of iMessage settings.
    iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201349
    Your iPhone telephone number is linked to your Apple ID when you sign in to FaceTime or iMessage. This allows you to use your iPhone number with FaceTime and iMessage on other iOS devices.
    This feature isn't available on iPod touch (3rd generation) and iPad (1st generation).
    This feature is available with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later.
    On OS X, find out which addresses are enabled:
    In Messages, choose Messages > Preferences > Accounts. Select iMessage in the left column. Your contact preferences should appear under "You can be reached for messages at:."
    OS X:
    Phone number missing on OS X
    If your phone number isn't listed on your Mac, follow these steps:
    Update to the latest version of OS X on your Mac.
    Verify that you're using the same Apple ID that you're using on your iPhone.
    Sign out of your Apple ID at these locations on your Mac:
    Messages > Preferences > Accounts tab. Click iMessage in the left column, then click Sign Out.
    FaceTime > Preferences. Select your Apple ID, then click Sign Out.
    Close FaceTime and Messages on your Mac.
    Open FaceTime and Messages, then sign in to your Apple ID in Preferences.
    If your phone number still isn't listed on your Mac, follow these steps:
    Sign out of your Apple ID on all iOS devices, including your iPhone, in the following locations:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Sign out of your Apple ID on your Mac at the following locations:
    Messages > Preferences > Accounts tab. Click iMessage in the left column, then click Sign Out.
    FaceTime > Preferences. Select your Apple ID, then click Sign Out.
    Close FaceTime and Messages on your Mac.
    Sign in to your Apple ID on your iPhone.
    When activation is complete, your Apple ID and all verified email addresses should be visible in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and also in Settings > FaceTime.
    Open FaceTime and iMessage, then sign in to your Apple ID in Preferences.

  • I just wanna buy a new iOS device and I'm confused between the iPod touch 5th generation, iPhone 4s 8GB, iPad 4th generation 16GB and iPad mini with the retina display 16GB model. Please help me figure out.

    I have an iPhone 4s 16GB Model and I've been using it for about more than an year now. The reason I wanna get a new iOS device is because my 4s has got lots of scratches now and it's ambient light sensor seems not to work properly. Apparently, another reason is that the iLife and iWork suit are not free for me as my device is older and new devices get those softwares for free.
    I thought to go with a new iPhone 4s again but the problem is that new 4s come with only 8GB of storage and they don't support AirDrop. So next, I thought to go with an iPod touch 5th gen because of its jaw-dropping design, bigger screen, more storage and AirDrop support. Because iPod touch is phone-less iPhone and they come at affordable price, I can also buy any cheap cell phone like moto e to replace my current iPhone 4S.
    Another options that I thought a little bit on, is iPad 4th Gen and iPad mini with Retina display 16GB.
    Now, should I just stick with my current 16GB iPhone 4s, or get a new one.
    Or should I buy an iPod touch 5th gen and moto e (since iPod can't make phone calls)
    Or should I go with one of the two iPad models that I aforementioned.
    Awaiting your valuable suggestions.
    Thank you!

    They're a lot more expensive, but Griffin has some of their 'survivor' cases with sealed ports, so you could cover up the ones you don't need.
    If best buy isn't an option for you, at least there's a manufacturer to look for.
