Can I use Apple TV w/out a Wireless Router (directly from MacBook Pro)

I have a MacBook Pro, a wireless home network, and Apple TV, and everything works fine. Because I frequently want to make presentations of my iMovie projects outside of my house, it would be nice if I could simply take my MacBook Pro, and my Apple TV, and just plug the Apple TV into the available TV, and play my content directly from my MacBook.
Is there a way to do this?

Not sure but you might want to try posting in the Apple TV forum - You're in the iPhone forum!

  • Can i use my iPhone 5s as a remote controller to my MacBook pro?

    Can i use my iPhone 5s as a remote controller to my MacBook pro with retina display such as keynote presentations etc.?

    Hey there emrahtatir,
    It sounds like you want to remotely control Keynote and iTunes from your phone. For Keynote this article will help you out:
    Using Keynote Remote
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6112
    To be able to control your iTunes application from your phone you would need the Remote app on the iPhone and Home Sharing enabled:
    Set up Remote app for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1947
    You can download Remote using the App Store on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch or using iTunes on your Mac or PC. Remote requires an iOS device and either Apple TV or iTunes 9.2.1 or later. You can see the version of iOS you need and other requirements for the Remote app.
    Remote uses Home Sharing to set up and control iTunes and Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation). See how you can use the Remote app. For best performance, update your iOS device, Apple TV, and iTunes. To use Remote, make sure your devices are on the same network, and log in to Home Sharing on your iOS device and iTunes or Apple TV with the same Apple ID.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Can i use 4gb ram card instead of (2x2) 2gb cards in macbook pro 15" 2.0 ghz

    can i use 4gb ram card instead of (2x2) 2gb cards in macbook pro 15" 2.0 ghz

    Hi John,
    If your MBP is a 2011, yes, and here is one example: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/1333DDR3S4GB/
    If your MBP is from 2006, the other year Apple made a 2GHz, the answer is no, as the max RAM is 2GB.
    Given that it appears you already have 2x2GB installed, I'm "guessing" you have the 2011 model, so the answer is yes.

  • Can I use the new Time Capsule to backup my mid 2010 Macbook Pro? Also can I want to free up my hard disk, can I save my photos and files on the time capsule and later access through wifi?

    Can I use the new Time Capsule to backup my mid 2010 Macbook Pro? Also can I want to free up my hard disk, can I save my photos and files on the time capsule and later access through wifi?

    Can I use the new Time Capsule to backup my mid 2010 Macbook Pro?
    Yes, if you are asking about using Time Machine to backup the Mac.
    Also can I want to free up my hard disk, can I save my photos and files on the time capsule and later access through wifi?
    You are not thinking of deleting the photos and files on your Mac, are you?  If you do this, you will have no backups for those files.
    Another concern is that Time Machine backs up the changes on your Mac. At some point, Time Machine will automatically delete the photos and files from the Time Capsule.....you just don't know when this might occur.
    In other words, only delete files from your Mac that you can afford to lose.

  • Can I use an adapter to get thunderbolt on my early 09 MacBook pro

    No.  ThunderBolt is a direct connection to your systems PCI Express bus.  There is no way for your existing ports to do this with any sort of external adapter.

    I think the best you can do is use the System Information application (Utilities Folder), looking in the wireless section.

  • Can I Use an Old External Hard Drive to Back Up my MacBook Pro?

    I am currently using a 2010 MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6.8) and I am thinking of upgrading to Mountain Lion when it comes out. So that means I should really back up my Mac. I have never backed up my Mac before nor have I ever backed up any of the PC's I owned in the past. With this being my first Mac and my first time backing it up I want to make sure I do this right.
    So my question is can I use my old exteral hard drive (Got it back in 2004 for University. Used with a PC) to back up my MacBook Pro with out running into any issues if I have to restore my Mac??

    yes.  connect it to the usb port, open disk utility, erase the disk and format to Mac OS Extended (Journaled).  That is the most common format.  Then backup as necessary.

  • Can I use my iMac G5 as a wireless router?

    I apologise if this is a dumb question, as it probably is, but I thought I'd give it a go... I've also searched the forum and have not found any other posts on this question, so it is more than likely far out..
    I have a iMac G5 that is connected straight through to broadband. I'm thinking of buying a laptop as i need Windows IE for work and, sad as it is to admit, I find Safari doesn't work properly on the website I ahve to do the admin for. If both computers are WiFi is there a way of networking the 2 computers and accessing the internet from the Laptop without buying a wireless router? Would bluetooth be a solution?
    Any help you can provide will be much appreciated
    Cheers
    Manuel

    Should be no problem using one machine as an access point for another. Of course, the first Mac must be continuously awake for this to happen, internet/file sharing must be turned on.
    Have a look at THIS forum's thread.

  • How can I use my iMac (2007) as an external display to my MacBook Pro (2013) while in bootcamp?

    I have an old 2007 iMac laying around that is too slow for use as a second computer, however I could greatly benefit from a second monitor for what I'm doing on my 2013 MacBook Pro while in bootcamp's windows mode (Photoshop, Illustrator, Rhinoceros, etc.). A hardware solution would be ideal, however I am aware that this might not work for an iMac older than 2009. I would appreciate any software suggestions for allowing the use of my 2007 iMac as a second monitor for my 2013 MacBook Pro while on the windows side via bootcamp.
    Thanks,
    Andy

  • Can I use my iMac 2009 as an external monitor for a MacBook Pro

    I will soon be getting a new MacBook Pro with Retina display. It has an HDMI port.
    My current iMac 21.5" late 2009 model seems to have a port with what looks like a little monitor symbol, next to the firewire port. And the specs say:
    Graphics and video support
    NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics processor with 256MB of DDR3 SDRAM shared with main memory3
    ATI Radeon HD 4670 graphics processor with 256MB of GDDR3 memory
    Built-in iSight camera
    Mini DisplayPort output port with support for DVI, VGA, and dual-link DVI (adapters sold separately).
    Support for extended desktop and video mirroring modes
    Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display and up to a 30-inch display (2560 by 1600 pixels) on an external display
    Does this mean that port is just for video output to an external monitor? Or is is possible to also do video in?
    On the one hand it feels like a waste to use a perfectly good iMac as a monitor. But the MacBook Pro actually has better specs, and so I was wondering if it is possible anyway.
    Thanks,
    doug

    Thanks for your reply. After reading the article though, I'm still not really sure what the answer is. For example, you mention something that can be done, with some hurdles to go through, for 27" iMacs. Mine is a 21.5" iMac, but seems to have the same port you mentioned in the article. Or maybe it isn't. Anyway, I'm still not sure if it is possible after reading that. Interesting information though.

  • Can i use microsoft office for mac on windows 7 installed on macbook pro?, can i use microsoft office for mac on windows 7 installed on macbook pro?

    I have recently installed Windows 7 on my Macbook Pro (2011). I have also recently got Microsoft office for Mac 2011. Can somebody please advise if it is possible to use (install) office for mac 2011 on this windows 7 that i have installed. If possible, how to do it?

    No it is not possible.
    You can use office for mac, on OSX, but not on windows.
    You need to use the windows version, on windows 7.

  • Can I use old version adobe acrobat 7.0 Professional for my macbook pro. I just bought this software and is non returnable.

    I just bought this software from RAFT teacher resources and it's non returnable. I don't know that it doesn't support macbook pro.  Is there anyway can you help me if you can. I don't want to waste it.  Thanks.  Best regards, Vivian.

    There is absolutely nothing you can do with this software if your Mac OS version is newer than 10.6; Macs less than about 5 years old cannot run older versions of Mac OS . It is no more use to you than a brick. It is an extraordinary thing to sell. Acrobat is now at version 11. Version 7 is more than 10 years old. I had a look but I don't see this on the RAFT store.

  • Can I use my time machine backup to migrate my files to macbook pro retina from my macbook pro 15 inch?

    I'm using a macbook pro 15 inch mid 2011 running on mountain lion.
    I have a complete backup of my files on time machine.  If I get a macbook retina, whats the best way ti migrate?
    Can I use my time machine to restore to the new retina mac?
    Thanks

    I'd just use the Time Machine restore function when setting up your new machine. If you don't have the TB>FW adapter, how do you plan to connect to your external drive with your TM backup? You may have to resort to Migration Assistant - but it would be helpful if you had the TB>Ethernet adapter so that you could hardwire both machines to your router - going wireless is going to take a long, long time. If your external has a USB port, you could use that for a TM restore...
