Can't get my macbook to display on airplay after macbook sleeps

When my macbook pro goes to sleep I can't establish my airplay connection without restarting my macbook.
My macbook shows it's connected to airplay but win't disconnect. I try from the airplay menubar icon and from the display settings. I click disconnect and the menubar icon stays blue. I click switch to air display off in the display settings and it jumps back to airplay display on it's own. When I turn off wifi or turn it off on the apple TV, airplay goes away. When I turn wifi back on or turn on airplay on my apple TV, airplay reconnects or thinks it is connected but my macbook screen is not on the air display.
I am using apple TV software v7.0.1 and Yosemite 10.10.1. I am using the extended desktop option with my apple TV.
Any ideas how to get airplay to show again without having to restart my macbook?

You need to go to System Preferences>Displays, and set Video Mirroring.  I think you've got it set to Shared Desktop.

    how can i get in use my Hp scaner with my macbook pro?

    You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode with the MacBook as the main screen. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the TV but you can move the cursor onto the TV screen.
    In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen.
    The TV will now have the Dock and Menu Bar and windows will open on it. But you can move the cursor to the MacBook screen and move windows from the TV over to the MacBook screen.
    You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
    Or if you want to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box. That will give you the same screen at the same resolution on both the MacBook and the external monitor.

  • Can I get rid of a windows partition on a MacBook running 10.4.11 without having bootcamp or bootcamp beta?

    Can I get rid of a windows partition on a MacBook running 10.4.11 without having bootcamp or bootcamp beta? If so, how?

    Yes, I think so, as would Snow Leopard probably. If your computer meets the requirements it would only cost $29 to buy Snow Leopard versus $129 for Leopard.
    Snow Leopard General requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel processor
    1GB of memory
    5GB of available disk space
    DVD drive for installation
    Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Leopard System requirements
    You must have a Macintosh computer with:
    an Intel processor or a PowerPC G4 (867 MHz or faster) or G5 processor
    a DVD drive >built-in FireWire
    at least 512 MB of RAM (additional RAM is recommended for development purposes)
    a built-in display or a display connected to an Apple-supplied video card supported by your computer
    at least 9 GB of disk space available, or 12 GB of disk space if you install the developer tools

    It sounds like you essentially have a new computer and unless you restored from a backup your iTunes library would be empty.  You can transfer your iTunes purchases from your iPod to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    SInce you changed syncing computers. after you move the stuff you need to restore the iPod to factory defaults and sync the stuff back to your iPod.  If you had the iPod backup file you could restore from backup.
    If you have non-iTunes pruchases you can copy them to your computer by using one of the third-party programs discussed in this previous discussion:

    The first step in Upgrading... is to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
    It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
    Do this first...
    Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
    Snow Leopard Tech Specs  >  http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard and iTunes.
    Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...

  • How can I get the photos on my pc onto my Macbook without emailing each one individually to myself?

    How can I get the photos on my pc onto my Macbook without emailing each one individually to myself?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Copy them from your PC to a flash drive or an external drive, then open iPhoto and select Import to Library.
    Depending on your settings, iPhoto might open automatically and ask if you want to import them when the device (camera or flash drive or external drive) containing the images is connected.
    At the end of the import, iPhoto will ask if you want to delete or keep the photos on the other device. Keep until you're absolutely certain all images are imported correctly and you've viewed them in iPhoto. It's always nice to have a backup.

  • How can I get rid of the display of the last played music-title

    How can I get rid of the display of the last played music-title
    When playing a music-title the name of the title and it's progress is displayed in the box at the top of iTunes, even if the music is already stopped or ended. This display is impeding f.i. when copying music-albums to iPhones and watching the progress. Can anyone tell me please how to make the display of the last played music-title disappear?
    Thank you very much in advance.

    OK, thank you very much, fiend.
    However: Since yesterday afternoon my e-mail-acount is being flooded with 50+ e-mails every few hours which are not at all related to my question. I'm copying the properties of one e-mail as a sample. Could you please organize this flood to stop or tell me what to do?
    Thank you very much!

  • How can I get iTUNES library to display renamed files and folders (renamed with Windows Explorer)?

    How can I get iTunes library to display the new names and organisation of tracks and albums (ie files and folders) that I have renamed and reorganised (using Windows Explorer) having previously imported them using iTunes?
    (Even when I relocate "lost" tracks in iTunes (using the drop down menu facility to view in Windows explorer), although iTunes will then play the track, and knows where to find it, it refuses to display the track with its correct (new) name, or show it the correct (new) album.  That means I have lots of things called "Untitled" and "Track 01" etc, all of which have actually been renamed, but iTunes does not seem to have the capability to recognise the changes and update its library listing.  Another example - a Tchaikovsky CD with 3 major works in 13 tracks insists on displaying in iTunes as 13 tracks in one album, despite the fact that I have reorganised the tracks into 3 albums - two being Swan Lake and The Nutcracker - and renamed the individual tracks to a more useable format.)

    Thanks for your replies ckuan
    I agree with Tgod that your first solution does not work.  It appears unpredictable whether the old or new file names are listed when you drag the folders into iTunes from Windows Explorer.  The folder structure is completely missing.  I reckon if you have to muck around spending days/weeks/months finding out how to fix links to a secret meta-file (obviously designed by some deep-cover microsoft worm working in the Apple!), then it's pretty obvious that almost any alternate way of doing this would be better.   Bye bye iTunes!!
    Incidentally, I tried several other things that (if the software was designed intuitively) should work, but give disastrous results:
    1) when deleting the library listing in iTunes, it gives you two options - one is to remove the listings to the Recycler.  Be aware that IF you select that option, it removes not only your library listing, but also your ACTUAL MUSIC FILES to the Recycler.  Moreover, it does NOT remove the insidious secret meta-file that is what apparently keeps rewriting old names over your carefully renamed file names, and keeps totally ignoring your carefully designed folder (album) structure.  OK - not a complete disaster, as I realised and went hunting through the chaos in the Recycler to recover all my files.  No thanks to the genius who designed this brilliant feature!
    2) after deleting the library listing in iTunes, I attempted to import just the folders that I wanted.  iTunes refused to allow me to do that, and proceeded to try to import every frigging music file it could find on my whole hard drive, in apparently random fashion into the library.  Whoever thought up that doozy either never ever tried to use or market test it, or has modified their mind rather too many times with artificial substances so their brain is like muesli chop suey.
    3) oh why go on, it's too depressing ...

  • How can I get pubished parameters to display the available settings

    how can I get pubished parameters to display the available settings?

    according to the online help, I'm supposed to click on Title to get to the titles settings as follows
    "Adjust a title’s settings
    You can modify a title’s default settings in the Title inspector.
    Select a title in the Timeline.
    Choose Window > Show Inspector (or press Command-4), and click the Title button at the top of the pane that appears.
    Adjust the available settings as needed.
    Note:  You can also keyframe many of the settings in both the Title and Text inspectors."
    Gsoing to the Text inspector, there does not seem to be anything in the menu where I can change the color of the text.   Based on the photo that appears with the above instructions --it appears the ability to change ink color is under the Published Parameters that is the menu I cannot get to 'drop'

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.
