  • AirPlay icon not appearing on Yosemite with MBA 2012

    I'm running a MBA 2012 with Yosemite 10.10.2. I'm able to use other Airplay devices on the network, eg: iPad Mini 2 to AppleTV 2, iPhone 5S to Sony Airplay speakers, etc. All of the devices connect to the same home wireless network and wireless SSID. The firewall is turned off on the MBA, and yes, Airplay is listed as supported for this MBA. The checkbox under System Preferences|Displays there, but it can't find any Airplay devices to extend the display on.
    The MBA 2012 under Mavericks seemed to work fine with Airplay, but I lost that in the Yosemite upgrade. Strangely enough, I did a clean install of Yosemite to a flash drive and the Airplay icon did appear. So obviously there's something wrong with my MBA, but I don't know where to look and the usual searches were pretty worthless.Is there a service that is just not running? If so, which one?

    That link is not really helpful and I've already gone through them as listed in the original post. Doesn't matter if Wifi or connected via Ethernet. This has nothing to do with iTunes (which is version 12.1). Other devices on the network (iPad, iPhone, other Mac) can do Airplay just fine so it's not a network issue of ports being open or blocked. The firewall on the Mac is turned off. Bonjour is turned on. Airplay is enabled on the AppleTV and the Sony Airplay speaker is turned on and available to other devices. In System Preferences, Sound|Output, the ability to select the speaker isn't an option.
    So the questions that remain are:
    1) Is there a service that I need to make sure that starts upon bootup? If so, which one?
    2) Is there some overlooked network setting that might be preventing this?

  • I just bought an Apple TV and I'm trying to connect airplay but the icon does not appear! My iPhone and Apple TV are on the same wifi connection but the airplay button does not apper?

    Try restarting all devices including portable  iOS ones and your router.
    Check Airplay is not disabled in AppleTVs settings.

  • My macbook pro has mountain lion installed and it will not play dvds

    my hubby's macbook pro has mountain lion installed, and will not play dvd's.  It says it is unsupported, I also have a macbook pro but has snow leopard on it, mine will play dvd's.  Please help me, I can't figure out why his won't play the same dvd's as mine.

    The most frequent problem in an optical drive is a dirty lens.  Use a lens cleaning DVD, a few shots of compressed air in the slot or a fine microfiber cloth (eyeglass lens cloth) wrapped around a business card and gently inserted inside the slot.  If no success, the Apple store genius bar is the next stop.

    According to other discussion threads I need Mountain Lion? I'm on 10.7.5 is that Lion? My Mac says I have no new software updates though? So confused!

  • Internet Recovery does not show Mountain Lion install, only Lion

    My mid 2010 Mac mini came with Snow Leapord. In August I upgraded to Mountain Lion.
    Now I want to do a internert recovery, to do a fresh install of Mountain Lion.
    When I boot setup from the Internet I can only choose Lion, then it ask for my apple ID. I hoped it would then offer Mountain Lion, but it says you have not purchased Lion so can not setup.

    If you are using the same Apple ID that you used to purchase ML, then something is wrong.

  • Why does the airplay icon not appear after upgrading to Mavericks on my iMac.

    I am using an Apple TV, iPad 2, and an iMac with wifi sharing enabled.  Before upgrading to mavericks I was easily able to use airplay to mirror the display of my ipad2 to a projector.  After the upgrade the airplay icon will dispear.  When I restart the wifi sharing on my imac then the airplay icon will reappear on my ipad.
    Does anyone have a fix for this.  I use this in my classroom and this problem made yesterdays lesson almost undoable because students were givng presentations and each time a student wanted to project thier ipad screen I had to reset my wifi.

    3. Turn on Apple TV and then wait 30 seconds for it to complete start-up process

  • After Mountain Lion install some software stopped working

    Besides some software not working Mission control will not work. I have no way to switch between desktops. I am thinking about doing a reformat and starting over.

    Then you need to purchase a copy of Snow Leopard. You cannot install Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion without first erasing the hard drive if you don't have Snow Leopard installed. You cannot reinstall Snow Leopard without a Snow Leopard DVD.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    If you need to purchase Snow Leopard you can still purchase a copy from Apple's online store's telesales agents.[1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775.] Ask for a Sales Representative.
    Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
    Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
    Snow Leopard from eBay
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.
    If you need to purchase Lion call 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. Ask for a Sales Representative. They will check your Apple ID, and email you a code and instructions.  The cost is $29.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download.
    Be sure your computer meets the minimum requirements:
    Apple - OS X Mountain Lion - Read the technical specifications.
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    Are my applications compatible?
    See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps - App compatibility and feature support for OS X & iOS.
    Am I eligible for the free upgrade?
    See Apple - Free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade Program.
    For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Apple - Upgrade your Mac to OS X Mountain Lion.

  • After mountain lion install and reinstall, still no toolbar in windows

    It cannot be added either, you get shadows instead of toolbar default options which should be there already anyway. I reinstalled from a redownloaded version same issue. Apple claims the powermac I am using is compatible with mountain lion. Has anyone else had this issue?

    dcrpitt...my apologies, this is the Mountain Lion forum, not the iMac forum.  As Cscound has asked, it would help to know if you're referring to Microsoft Windows and, if so, are we dealing with Boot Camp or a VM like Parallels or VM Ware Fusion?  It would also help to know more details about your specific Mac...
    Under the Apple Menu at the top, choose About This Mac...then click on the More Info...button.  It should look something like this:
    Let us know what kind of Mac it is, how much memory is installed, and what Software (Mac OS X version) is installed.
    If your issue is pretty much with running Windows on your Mac, there's a forum for that too here.

  • AirPlay Icon Not Appearing in Newest Version of iTunes

    Nevermind, I figured it out!

    Not just Version 8, happens in Version 9.
    We are having this same problem, my wife has performance CD's for her group she redoes for the performance and she used to burn just fine. Now there is a blip even with it set to none for gap. She is very frustrated right now. This problem happens on both the OSX and Windows version of Itunes 9 latest update.

  • In Firefox 4, why are the website icons not appearing in the tabs and next to the URL in the address bar? They appear fine in the bookmarks menu.

    The little favicons that represent the website show up as the blank page icon in the toolbar and in the address bar, but they appear fine in the bookmarks bar. I have tried clearing my cache, and that did not help.
