Apple tv and Mountain Lion Mirror problems

Hi so I upgraded to Mountain Lion the day it came out on my macbook pro and so far im really happy with it. But I am all of the sudden having problems mirroring it on my apple tv. I worked fine up until about a week ago and now it doesnt seem to want to work. When I click on the mirror icon nothing happens, I just turns blue around it for about 15 secs and then nothing. I have tried everything and im lost. HELP!

Do a reset of apple tv and try again,in case it still is having issue check if you have latest updates on Apple tv as well as for mountain lion.

  • Get Airtunes to work with Apple TV and Mountain Lion

    Hi there,
    I know there are tons of people complaining that the new Airplay Mirroring doesn't work with their later than mid 2011 Mac running Mountain Lion.  My complaint is I just want to be able to use my apple TV with my Itunes library.  After my upgrade my apple TV2 can't find my Itunes library.  I don't care about the mirroring feature, that's why I bought an AppleTV, but without access to the library I can't play anything.  Is there any way to get just Airtunes to work?  Are there any setup tricks I could do to make it work?  On the ipad and the iphone I see the option to pair my devices with a 4 digit code in itunes but the apple TV only works through my Apple ID.  this seems to make my ipad and iphone not work. 
    I have a 2010 iMac and a AppleTV2.  I just want to be able to browse my library on my itunes.  Sometimes it will work for short period of time after several resets on both machines but it never lasts. 
    Some one please help!

    1. Insure home sharing is turned on both apple tv & the iPad - same account
    2. When playing video or audio look for the little square usually lower left corner press it and select
    Apple tv!
    3. For mirroring double press home button (or multi finger slide up) scroll
    All the way to the left & turn on AirPlay and choose mirroring!

  • To all with trouble Apple TV and Mountain Lion

    Hi!
    I downgraded to Lion with Time Machine.
    Why I give up trying to solve the problem that ATV will not show any pictures?
    Today I had contact with a REAL technicma, NOT from helpdesk.
    He told me that Apple probably NOT will make a fix for this problem.
    iMacs before june 2010.
    I see no reason to have ML as everything works just fine with Lion.
    Thanks thou for all hundreds of tip from everybody.

    @Alley_Cat
    One more thing. I tested every tips given here but could not get ATV3 to show my library iPhoto.
    ATV3 connected allright with the Apple TV
    First Screen said Homesharing is on
    When clicking Computer the new sreen said "Turn on homesharing"
    Cou.d not solve that
    Now back to Lion everything works correct, so I am satisfied.

  • HDMI, Mini Display Port and Mountain Lion

    Hello,
    After reading about numerous issues concerning the Mini Display Port and Mountain Lion, I'm trying to discuss it here with you all to see if there is any solution.
    I have a MacBook Pro (2009), and used it with my TV (HDMI cable + Mini display port adaptor) with Plex media center back when it was on OS X Lion. It was very convenient because as a portable computer, it could easily be set near the TV and allow the use of a remote to sit in the couch and stream media from the Time Capsule… without the help of any expansive box. Perfect setup I've had for over a year.
    The thing is, since I've upgraded to Mountain Lion, when I try to connect the MacBook Pro to the TV, the screen turns blue as if it was calculating the resolution of the monitor so… ok. Until it comes back, and nothing changed either on the MacBook Pro screen or on the TV.
    Harware side, I've tried with the computer open, closed, I've checked every port and connection on both computer, TV and adaptor.
    Software side, what I find really annoying in Mountain Lion is that they completely ditched every monitor setting as long as nothing is connected — and even if the Mini DP is connected… the Mac thinks it's not. I even tried to reset the PRAM. This is a nightmare.
    I've tried to do the same with my iMac (mid 2011), and it all worked properly. What I can't explain is why it works on my iMac and not on the MBP… as they have the same configuration !
    I don't know if Apple is outcasting old devices so people buy new Apple stuff or if they ditched the HDMI out on certain (old) devices on purpose so users replace it by the new airplay mirroring feature and buy the Apple TV. I won't, because let's say it's a total crap compared to other media center solutions. And I'm bored of Apple.
    Please, HELP NEEDED ! Has anyone had the same issue ? I bet you have ! Now how can we solve that ?
    Thank you for your time.

    EDIT : stopped working on iMac too… then update 10.8.2 fixed the issue. Now it works. Thanks Apple for temporarily removing some features ! It's just so ANNOYING.
    Hope you gonna stay with the few we have left on Mac and stop removing things randomly. Not event talking about the pro environment (designers, developpers, etc.) that is almost gone. 2 years and our macs will be tablets. Careful with the old clients… it's been almost 10 years I'm on a Mac and I've never been so unhappy.

  • Why is searching so much slower in both Lion and Mountain Lion than Snow Leopard?

    Hi, I use Snow Leopard run on several Mac Pros to perform multidimensional time-lapse-imaging in our lab. Snow Leopard provides instantaneous (seconds) searching for folders containing the image sequences I require for analysis (distributed across 4 x 2TB hard drives- images are saved under the structure Time\Position, and for analysis I need to retrieve all folders with the same Position label). Lion and Mountain Lion either fail to search or are painfully slow. For analysis I use internal hard drives connected as external volumes via USB and I suspect this might be part of the problem, however the same setup works flawlessly with Snow Leopard.
    This problem is becoming very frustrating as I can’t figure out what has changed, or whether I am overlooking something obvious. I installed Lion on my MacBook Pro over 6 months ago which is when I discovered this problem and had to reinstall Snow Leopard. At that time I had hoped that the next OS might provide a better search function for our use, but after some testing it seems the same. To search through folders manually takes over 10 x as long as using a simple search in Snow Leopard. Can anyone provide me any advice as to what might be causing this problem and whether there might be a solution? I’ve tried a few free searching tools from the app store, but these do not perform any better than searching in Finder. I would obviously prefer to be able to invest in new Macs in the future which run the most current OS without having to install Snow Leopard on them all (if this is even possible without future models without causing compatibility problems).
    Many thanks for reading and for any advice you can give me.

  • Voice dictation,Dragon Express and Mountain Lion

    Are there any other users out there who want decent voice dictation software that doesn't depend upon being online all the time and speaking to the clouds?
    Not everyone can be online all the time:  moreover there's an old saying that 'walls have ears' - well there's a new saying that 'clouds have ears' . The new dictation facility that comes with Mountain Lion is quite a promising catch-up application, but it only works if you are online to the clouds. But the cheap price of the ML upgrade comes at a hidden cost.  I recently bought Dragon Express for £39 from the App Store to use for voice dictation and have found out that it does not work under Mountain Lion.
    I used to use IBM Via Voice for the Mac but that did not survive the change from System 9 to System X.  Will Nuance  get fed up with Apple's policy towards 3rd party developers and will they let their Dragon voice software for the Mac go the same way?
    Teya

    Intriguing, someone left it on "works fine" on http://roaringapps.com/app:402 for both Lion and Mountain Lion on version 7.2.3, yet when you look at the versions 7, 8, and 9 of Logic Express under the Versions section of the website, nobody was able to get it to work.  Given that is the case, I edited the status to "some problems."   I'll ask your post get redirected to the Logic Express forum to get the facts.

  • CS6 and Mountain Lion

    Planning upgrade to both. What bugs should I anticipate? Does it matter which one I do first?

    Using Photoshop CS6 and Mountain Lion and so far the only
    issue I have had is a jumpy cursor with my Apple Wireless Mouse.
    Bridge CS6 and Camera Raw haven't had any problems.  Bridge
    imports images without issue from my cameras.
    Be for warned, you need to install Java seperately as Mountain Lion
    no longer ships with it.

  • Photoshop CS6 and Mountain Lion

    I have 2011 Macbook pro with Mtn Lion. Put on PS CS6 and have pixelation and freezing, and I have to force quit.  Also cannot see all my 3rd Party plugins. I contacted Adobe (not easy) and they said problems are all due to plugins and thats all they say.  No trouble shooting...no nothing. (Plugin manufacturer won't help me either). Apple can't help.  I have $3000 computer that is useless.
    1.  Do I sell computer or wait hoping Apple or Adobe will get this together?
    2. Other choice is install WIndows 7 on boot camp and run Paint Shop Pro.  However I doubt any of the old plugins will work on the 64 bit.  What if I install 32 bit WIndows 7? Will old plugins work?
    I need help, this is frustrating to no end.

    It seems to me that many of the 3rd party plugins are older and I suppose they are 32 bit.
    Easiest way to tell is to check your filters list. If you know the filters are installed correctly (in Photoshop's Plug-ins folder) and they don't show up in the list while running PS, they're 32 bit, or possibly even 16 bit depending on how old they are.
    So I cannot use either PS program successfully. Is there no fix even for  PS4?
    I presume you mean PS CS4 and not literally version 4? Adobe officially supports CS6 and CS5.5 in Mountain Lion. CS4 is Intel native as a Universal app, but I haven't tried it in ML, so don't know how well it works.
    Regarding reinstalling Mtn Lion, I could try that but the problem only occurs in Photoshop so do you think that could be the cause?
    Hard to say. As an example, I tried installing the CS5, CS5.5 and CS6 Master Collections in Snow Leopard and Mountain Lion. I did this in all combinations, erasing the test drive each time so there were no leftovers from other installs. Each install had all updates installed. In each case, desktop icons were broken such that not all files saved from PS would produce an icon. Two other much larger problems is that saving files would at times either give the error that I didn't have permission to save a file, or it would say .afpdeleted could not be save. In either case, the file being saved would be deleted! You had to do a Save As again immediately before closing the image in PS to save it.
    The point of this is that reinstalling the OS after installing the Adobe software fixed all of these issues every single time. So while it may seem illogical, reinstalling the OS might fix the problem.

  • IPhoto and Mountain Lion don't work together

    I consistently have problems with iPhoto and my entire computer locks up and runs at less than a snail's pace. I paid $15 to install iPhoto after upgrading to Mountain Lion and now wish I had stayed with Snow Leopard and the old iPhoto. Having to type this on my iPad while I wait for something to unlock on my computer. I am merely trying to export one image to my desktop and it's taken about 10 minutes. Apple - PLEASE fix this!

    There is no problem with iPhoto and Mountain Lion. You're not talking to Apple here, and as it's not happening to everybody else they're not going to fix it because you have a local problem.
    If you want help try give us a full description of the problem.
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • Logic and Mountain Lion

    i recently bought a new 15" retina/mountain lion laptop after researching to be sure that i would be able to use the existing software that i have.
    Logic being the most important that i use. i saw there was issues with Loci 8 and mountain lion, and that upragind to Logic 9 would solve the issue.
    there is a GREATER issue than that. i CAN NOT install Logic 8 on my new machine.
    HOW DO I USE THE ABILITY TO UPGRADE WHEN I CAN INSTALL MY ORIGINAL PURCHASED COPY. i have two weeks left, if the only solution offered to fix this is to BUY Logic 9 after spending as much as i did on the machines and software....this machine will be going back and might have to reconsider the whole apple thing.
    someone please help me out. i REALLY dont wanna change machines again.
    thanks

    Intriguing, someone left it on "works fine" on http://roaringapps.com/app:402 for both Lion and Mountain Lion on version 7.2.3, yet when you look at the versions 7, 8, and 9 of Logic Express under the Versions section of the website, nobody was able to get it to work.  Given that is the case, I edited the status to "some problems."   I'll ask your post get redirected to the Logic Express forum to get the facts.
