How do I view videos on my Mac air to apple tv?

I have a MacBook air and was wondering how to watch movies that are currently in md4 format using AirPlay to my apple tv? I have an iPhone and iPad that can AirPlay and mirror, but I don't see how my MacBook air will do the same thing.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can play compatible video in iTunes from your MBA. Select the video and choose the Apple TV from the list when you click the AirPlay icon in the bottom right corner of the iTunes window.

  • How do we view videos on our Mac computer?  We keep getting the message, "Blocked plug-in".

    We have a Mac desktop computer.  We suddenly can't watch videos.  We keep getting the message, "Blocked plug-in".  Please help.
    Thank you

    That is because Apple shut down Flash Player due to a security alert.
    You need to download the latest version.
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):

    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

    I lost the ability to download and view video on my Mac. How do i restore that functionality?

    One of the following steps should help.
    1. Install Adobe Flash Player.
        http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
        Restart
    2. Are Plug-ins Enabled?
        Enable Plug-ins
        Safari > Preferences > Security
        Web Content:
        Click in the box for "Enable Plug-ins".
    3. Check  whether you are currently  in  YouTube HTML 5 trial.

  • How do I view videos that need Adobe Flash Player on my iPad?

    How do I view videos that need Adobe Flash Player on my iPad? If this device does not support Adobe Flash?

    Skyfire is Not the answer! Bad reviews and you have to pay to try.
    I used Puffin Free Browser. Worked perfectly with a 14 day free trial for Flash. It worked well for Flash videos so I would buy the full version.

  • How do I view videos on a link to Picassa?

    Any suggestions on how I can view videos on my iPad using a link to Picassa?  I can view pictures but not the videos.
    Thanks for any help.

    It's possible the videos are in a format that is not  compatable with iOS. You might check the app store for Picassa compatible apps, but no guarantee that would solve the issue.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Most of YouTube videos support HTML5, so activate HTML5 > http://www.youtube.com/html5
    If after turning on HTML5 you can't watch videos, download Flash > http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer Then, close Safari, install Flash and restart the MacBook Pro. Finally, try to watch a video in YouTube

    As a video professional, i agree and am VERY disappointed with this policy.  I attended CC presentations at various conventions, film festivals and meetups for a year-and-a-half before I made the leap to CC, and no one EVER mentioned a restriction to transferring video files.
    Whether it's to save storage space or not, that's how it APPEARS to the end user.  Anybody who knows ANYthing about how video pirates commit their crime (which it most-certainly is), knows that there are plenty of FREE, untraceable (or nearly-anonymous) resources to carry it out.  The need for anyone to pay $30 or more per-month to do it with an acct that has their info attached to it is ludicrous!  If anything it's CONTRIBUTING to piracy to encourage creatives to transfer their material to collaborative parties using a less-secure, more heavily-trafficked third-party service than the one they're paying for exclusive use for.
    Adobe's policy makers need to review this restriction and remove it or provide ANOTHER reason why it exists because this one doesn't fly.  And if it continues, make sure a disclaimer gets inserted in CC pitch presentations because likely half of the attendees are working with video.

    thank you

    Do you have an Apple TV.  In which case AirPlay or if your Mac is too old, Eric Root's AirParrot suggestion.
    If no Apple TV, then a miniDisplay Port to HDMI adaptor and an HDMI cable  (a Thunderbolt to HDMI adaptor is really the same as a miniDisplay Port to HDMI adaptor).

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The Apple TV 2 doesn't show up under devices like the Apple TV 1, to send video and music to the Apple TV you need to use the Airplay Option which appears in the lower right corner of iTunes.

  • I have pages and keynote on my iPad, how to i make them work on mac air i have bought later

    i have Pages and Keynote, and others of course, on my iPad, how to i make them work on mac air i have bought recently ?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    The iPad uses iOS, and your MacBook Air uses OS X, which are different operating systems with different apps.
    iWork apps (Keynote, Pages and Numbers) have got two version: for OS X and for iOS. You already purchased Keynote and Pages for iOS, so you can install them in all your iPhones, iPads and iPods touch for free, but not in the MacBook Air, because the iOS version isn't supported. You have to buy Keynote and Pages for OS X in the Mac App Store for your MacBook Air.
    To access to the Mac App Store, press its icon in the Dock or go to  > App Store

  • How to view videos on a mac

    I am new to a mac, and I find I am NOT able to open videos and watch them.  I have had them sent to me in a email, will not play.  I have tried to play a music video from the internet, will not play.  Is there a secret to playing a video on a Mac computer?

    What error messages are you getting when you click the play button on a video on a web site, or double-click on a video that's on your computer? Is the problem with ALL videos?
