How do I stream the dvd's I insert into my mac on my apple tv?

Welcome to the Apple community.
If your Mac meets the specifications for airplay mirroring, then you can play your DVDs but you will have to use a program such as VLC.
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).

  • Edu DVD in computer iTunes but does not show up in iPad iTunes or iPad video.  How do I make the DVD contents available on the iPad?

    Educational DVD added successfully to computer iTunes but does not show up in iPad iTunes or iPad video.  How do I make the DVD contents available on the iPad?

    Thanks!  For whatever bizarre reason for which I have no answer - I sync'd my iPad to my MBP the old fashion way (not iCloud) and the movie showed up just fine.  It is Nikon camera 'how to' video. I like to watch them for a better indepth discovery of what the camera can do.  The only weird thing about the hard wire sync is that it was placed in a catagory "home movies" which was never there before...actually it showed up in two places "home movies" and TV shows.
    So, thanks anyway!  Pretty cat!

    If you wish to use home sharing then you need to setup the Apple TV under your ID.

  • HT2499 My DVD player has stopped taking discs and the DVD player no longer recognizes the drive.  I bought an external player.  How do I switch the DVD player from the internal drive to the external?

    My DVD Player in my MabBook Pro, System 10.8.2, has stopped accepting discs and is no longer recognized by the DVD driver.  I purchased an external Blue-ray Disc player/writer.  It is a Samsung.  I downloaded their driver so the drive shows up on my desktop.  But how do I switch the DVD player over from my internal to my external drive?

    In addition to RRFS's advice, please post in the correct forum. This forum is for iMac's, you mentioned you have a MacBook Pro. They're similar but still pretty different hardware.

  • How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer?

    How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer? I can't find a button on or below the door.  Am I missing something?  Additionally, will the K430 boot from a DVD/CD if it finds one in the DVD tray instead of the hard disk?  Please help. Thanks. 
    Solved!

    hi penguin247,
    Regarding your questions:
    1. Can you try to press the eject symbol on the DVD bay and observe if the DVD tray comes out.
    Link to picture
    2. By default, the HDD is set as the first boot device and the ODD second on the K430. You will need to change the boot order or continuously tap F12 during POST to boot from the ODD (assuming you have a bootable media inserted).

  • I left a dvd in my macbook pro for a while and now my computer wont recognize that there is even a disk in there, nor will it eject it. how do i get the dvd out?

    i left a dvd in my macbook pro for a while and now my computer wont recognize that there is even a disk in there, nor will it eject it. how do i get the dvd out?

    Hold down the mouse button or trackpad clicker as you start up.
    If no joy, restart and hold the Option key. This brings up the Startup Manager, which will draw an Icon for each bootable Volume. When all are drawn, the Eject key is "live".

  • How can you install the DVD or CD Sharing Setup software?

    How can you install the DVD or CD Sharing Setup software for a computer running MAC OSX 10.4.11 if you do not have a MacBook Air?

    You'll find the software you're looking for here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/dvdorcdsharingsetupupdateformac.html
    However, say for example you install this on your iMac G4 or Windows XP PC (you'll need to get the link for that one yourself), are you planning to try to share the drive with an iBook or other non-MacBook Air computer? If this is your case, I'm not shure if it can be done with that software. I'll need to get back to you on that one.

  • HT2499 How do I find the DVD remote control and restart my DVD where I left off?

    Hello. I have the external disc player. When I inserted a DVD the first time, the movie started automatically and the DVD remote control came to the screen. However, I had to shut down before I finished watching the movie. I kept the disc drive plugged in and the DVD inside. Now I don't know how/where to find the DVD remote control to restart the movie as it doesn't start automatically without me unplugging the whole thing and restarting it from the beginning.
    Thanks!

    Thank-you, Eric. No, it was when the movie was stopped and I had actually turned off the computer for the night. I played around on it a lot and kept googling. I think the way is to launch finder and search DVD player. The remote came up then! Don't know if there's an easier way but I'm happy to restart my movie now. (I am a new Mac user, evidently )  Thanks for replying!

    Ask the store for a local Macintosh Users Group / Club... maybe someone there can help you. You might check pawn shops in the area for a machine that has a full set of disks. Apple will sell/mail you a set. I don't know of anyplace to legitimately download them... For what its worth any commercial (e.g. full retail version) install of OS X on disk should work for your machine.

    Hello Achates:
    I did not read the rather long post. If you wish to reinstall OS X 10.4, use your software install DVD. Backup is essential. To minimize your risk, I would use an archive and install:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    In that way, you will have a fresh copy of OS X and your current settings will be preserved.
    Incidentally, I do not agree that the printer problem is best solved by reinstalling OS X. I have had HP printers for sometime and, on one occasion, had difficulty after an upgrade. HP technical support walked me through uninstalling all traces of the HP driver and then reinstalling.

    How can I watch a DVD playing on my iMac on my TV using Apple TV?

    You can't. The only way is to transfer the movie to your computer and import to iTunes (making sure it is compatible) and either use home-sharing or airplay the movie off an ios device.
