How do you stream from my mac to apple tv

How do you stream from my MacBook Pro to my apple tv?  I want to watch a show that is on the internet.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404 If your computer is compatible with AirPlay Mirroring, you can use it to mirror the computer screen to your Apple TV.
If your Mac isn't compatible with AirPlay Mirroring, you can use a third-party app, like AirParrot > http://www.airparrot.com

  • Can you stream from BBCi Player using Apple TV?

    Hi All,
    Looking into getting the apple TV for my dad but want to know if it will actually come in handy so please tell me ...
    Can you stream from BBCi Player/ITV Player from laptop to TV via the Apple TV?
    Many Thanks

    I thought that members of this forum may like to see the latest, 10th August 1013,  respons from the BBC -
    Thank you for contacting the BBC iPlayer support team.
    I understand that a previous response from us didn’t resolve an issue you have with the BBC iPlayer, via your Apple TV device.
    Streaming programmes should be able to play using airplay but downloaded programmes are not currently supported on the Apple TV.
    However, we aim to resolve this in a future update to the BBC iPlayer.
    We do appreciate the time taken to report this issue as all feedback received helps us to develop and improve the service.
    Your comments have been used to inform a daily report which is sent to the BBC iPlayer team, including the head of BBC iPlayer.
    Seems we are keeping our fingers crossed that Apple and the BBC will have the same common aim in getting AppleTV to incorporate the iPlayer.

  • How can I stream from iTunes (Win) to Apple TV (3. generation)?

    Home Sharing is turned on, but I can't see my iTunes library on my Apple TV, also I've no idea, how to stream from my MacBook or PC to the Apple TV. Firewall is offline during testing. Streaming photos and from iOS-devices works.

    What happens you you try?  Are you looking under Music or Computers > Music.  Have you entered in the home sharing ID you created in to ATV?

  • How many hard drives can i stream from one mac for apple tv

    Hi a newbie to all this ive got a 500gb external hd and running out of space but am looking to buy a 1tb but i want to set it up as im using both hard drives so i get 1.5tb as this is a cheaper option for me is this possible and how
    many thanks for your time

    You need to turn off the option to copy content to the iTunes folder in iTunes preferences, then when you add new content to iTunes you will need to place the content on one of the HDDs and then drag and drop it onto iTunes from a finder window.
    Or you can alternatively leave the "Copy" option on and simply press the Alt-key when dragging and dropping content to momentarily suspend the "Copy" of the dragged content to the library. (I.e., iTunes will gladly manage both copied and non-copied content as long as you do not move or delete the non-copied files at the Finder level after adding them to the iTunes database.)

  • How do you upgrade from Mac OS x 10.6.8 to Lion?

    How do you upgrade from Mac OS x 10.6.8 to Lion?

    First check to be sure your hardware meets the hardware requirements for Lion.
    Backup your data. I suggest a bootable clone as the way to go.
    Then open App Store and purchase and download the Lion installer.
    Then install Lion.

  • I have macbook pro 13" I want to know how to copy files from my mac to the external Toshiba Hard Drive. I can't even delete files from my external hard drive. please help me my macbook HD is almost full and I have to copy my images to the Toshiba HD

    To delete files from your external HDD, attach it to your MBP and drag the unwanted files to trash and then empty trash.
    Then you select the files that you want to transfer by 'drag and drop' to the external HDD and trash the files on your MBP.
    Ciao.

  • How do you know what version Mac OSX is on ANOTHER drive?

    How do you know what version Mac OSX is on ANOTHER drive without starting that drive
    and seeing the system profiler? In fact, because the drive wont start up, Now I am wondering if it is pre-intel. ? CMD-I doesn't do it. Thanks

    Why mess with this? Well, I got the HDDs and the enclosure from my previous PPC, so I'd like to make use of it all without $pending again.
    I don't see any problems with using the card and drives on your new Mac. Hardware is too pricey to just leave behind if you can't help it. With the new drivers I suspect you'll be able to use your drives, I just don't think you'll be able to boot from them if the interface card requires drivers. They should still be very fast storage devices, and probably reliable due to the ongoing support the vendor has provided.
    I went through the same type of issue when I bought my Dual G4 1.42 Tower (upgraded from a Quadra 840AV ). Several of my devices were SCSI (I was into SCSI Wide/Fast drive arrays at the time for video capture), and I was able to use an Adaptec card for scanning for several years with Jaguar and Panther. I'd spent quite a bit of cash to ensure high quality and performance and didn't want to loose all of the investment. Eventually the SATA hard drives and other USB and Firewire replacements became so cheap and performance improved enough that loosing SCSI with Tiger was not a big deal. I do think I should get about 5 years of hardware compatibility with most products and I keep older Mac's around for dedicated services as long as they aren't a costly maintenance issue.

  • How do you stream a live video to a website

    OK - Again I'm feeling smart enough to be real dumb.
    How do you stream a live video to a website. I use GoDaddy to host a website. I can plug a video camera into my Mac so I can run the video through whatever program works best. I even have a .mac account (now its mobile me I guess) and could use that. I have read several threads but can't really find a starting point. Any help is appreciated.
