Can i mirror my iMac screen to my Apple TV using Airplay?

seen as my iPad 2 and iPhone 4s have the capability, just wondered if my iMac can do the same? its a great feature on the portable devices. i have a 27" iMac which is adequate but when i want to show groups of people things it gets a bit crowded around the desk!...plus stuff looks much more impressive on the 55" TV

no

  • How can I mirror my macbook screen to the Apple TV through wifi?

    I cannot seem to be able to mirror my macbook screen via wifi to the Apple TV. It only works with my iPad 2. Is there a solution now or in the future?

    You can't.  And the lag/delay would be so bad that it could be large.  But I'd take your question to the AppleTV forum to see if someone has a solution.  But the bigger question is, why????  Just mirror the MacBook directly to the TV?

  • How can I mirror my macbook screen to the Apple TV through wifi?r

    I have not been able to mirror my macbook's screen to the Apple TV through the wifi. I want to do that in the classroom for more mobility of the notebook for student use. This is because I'm trying to use iPads and Macbooks in the classroom for presentations by students and the teacher directly to the TV. Is the Apple TV the best bet?

    If you are desparate, I was able to get a remote-desktop client to show my Mac's screen on my iPad, and then display that to my TV via AppleTV 2 over wifi. While it worked, it was rather slow on screen updating--you'd never be able to watch a movie for instance.

  • My Apple TV will not mirror my iMac screen after upgrading to Yosemite?

    Ok, I can stream music and movies from my iTunes library. However, My apple tv will not mirror my iMac screen. When I turn on the Airplay Display, my television screen goes blank. I bought the apple TV maybe 5 months ago, so it's a relatively new version.
    What do I need to do to get my mirroring to work, please. Anyone? BTW, this is crap. I expect better from Apple.

    Hi,
    same here. Only Audio no picture ore sharing desktop.
    MACOSX: 10.9.5 Operating language German
    Apple TV 3: OS 6.2
    Here is the fix:
    1. Open Terminal in /Applications/Utilities.
    2. Run these commands respectively:
    sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/APExtFramebuffer.kext
    sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AirParrotDriver.kext
    sudo rm -rf /Library/Extensions/APExtFramebuffer.kext
    sudo rm -rf /Library/Extensions/AirParrotDriver.kext
    This will uninstall kernel extensions related to AirParrot. Other solutions around the web being posted are missing the extensions within /Library/Extensions.
    3. Enter your administrative password when prompted.
    4. Restart your computer.

  • Can I  mirror iphone 4s screen (app Navigon) to TFT monitor in my car over the composite cable?

    How can I mirror Iphone 4s screen (app Navigon) to TFT monitor in my car over  the composite AV cable?

    I think your right modular747 about the next gen iPhone. This is certainly a very unique use of an iPhone and probably not useful for enough for other applications to make it a priority for apple to add a video input on the phone. Thanks to all for the suggestions keepem coming and if i come up with a solution I'll post it for anyone who is interested;-)

  • How can I get my iMac screen to divide into sections? I'm using OS X 9.2. Thanks.

    How can I get my iMac screen to divide into sections? I'm using Maverick OS X 9.2. Thanks.

    You cannot split a monitor up into sections in Mac OS X.
    You can have separate monitor spaces or desktops that you can access using the Spaces or Mission Control functionality in OS X Mavericks.
    You cannot split monitor views into seperate sections
    There is no such way to do this in Mac OS X.
    Do a search for an app called Cinch OR another app called A Better Snap Tool. Both of these apps are in the Mac App Store.
    These may work for you.

    How can I mirror my computer monitor on the Apple TV ?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). It also requires the computer to be using wi-fi.

  • Burner not working, 8.98 GB free, can this 2003/2004 imac model be cleaned for better use or will I continue to have problems?  Do I need to just buy a new one?

    burner not working, 8.98 GB free, can this 2003/2004 imac model be cleaned for better use or will I continue to have problems?  Do I need to just buy a new one?  I remember with a PC being able to defrag.

    You could buy an external dvd/cd drive.
    Suggest other world computing.
    You need to delete some files.  Many posters to these forums state that you need much more free space: 5 gig to 10 gig or 10 percent of you hd size.

    Be careful when deleting files. A lot of people have trashed their system when deleting things. Place things in trash. Reboot & run your applications. Empty trash.
    Go after large files that you have created & know what they are.  Do not delete small files that are in a folder you do not know what the folder is for. Anything that is less than a megabyte is a small file these days.

    Monolingual is a program for removing unnecessary language resources from Mac OS X,in order to reclaim several hundred megabytes of disk space. It requires at least Mac OS X 10.3.9 (Panther) and also works on Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger). It worked for me on 10.4

  • Can I mirror what's on my iMac screen to the Apple TV?

    I'm thinking about buying an Apple TV but I want to know if I will be able to mirror what's on my iMac screen to my TV in the living room. (Ex: show a webpage on my tv.)
    Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    No, you can't currently do that from your mac/pc, without resorting to 3rd party software which is so unstable I wouldn't wish to recommend it.

  • IMac connected to TV, can I turn the iMac screen off?

    Hi,
    I connected my Intel (white 20") iMac to my TV and I'm using the TV screen as the main screen with the menu bar and all that. But the iMac screen is always on, until you launch Front Row or Hulu..etc. then the iMac screen turns off. Is there a way to make the iMac screen to stay off permanently?
    Thanks
    Gene

    On the MacBook, you can wake it while the lid is closed, and the built-in display will not be used. You can then open the lid, and the built-in display should still stay off. At least, that's how it worked with my older PowerBook. So the MacBook design is capable of doing it without any additional software; Remote Buddy just takes a short cut, which is why it is kind of cool, like it does to change the "Main display" from one to the other, or "Toggle mirroring," without opening System Preferences Displays pane Arrangement tab.
    I was exactly where you specified in the Remote Buddy menu. The brightness control can adjust the brightness exactly like the built-in control, but even the lowest setting is not an OFF setting.
