    i do not understand.

    Which MBA do you have? It needs to be Mid 2011 or later for ML mirroring to work.

  • 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.

  • I just upgraded to mountain lion. I am unable to use airplay mirroring through my apple tv. They are both on the same network. It says a airplay icon should appear in the menu bar but it isn't there. What am I missing here?

    AirPlay
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, 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).

    Hello atef from egypt,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To help resolve this issue where your computer cannot connect to your AirPlay-enabled device, please follow the information outlined below.
    Wi-Fi Connection
    If you are experiencing intermittent playback or significant network lag with AirPlay, it could be due to a weak Wi-Fi connection, interference, or the distance between the Wi-Fi router and your AirPlay-enabled device.
    Ensure that other devices aren't trying to stream to the same Apple TV at the same time.
    Ensure that your Wi-Fi router is set up with the recommended settings for the best performance.
    Certain external devices, such as microwave ovens and baby monitors, may interfere with a Wi-Fi network. Try moving or disabling these devices.
    If your wireless and wired networks are the same, try connecting your Apple TV to the router via Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi.
    Use the Wi-Fi network troubleshooting guide to resolve interference and other issues.
    Ethernet Connection
    Temporarily disable firewalls (both network and local) and security software. Security software and firewalls may block ports that AirPlay uses to stream content. You can often resolve issues with security software by updating, correctly configuring, or uninstalling security software.

  • 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?

  • Hello. I've Apple TV 3rd gen and MacBook Pro 2013 all with latest updates. AirPlay works fine till I don't start streaming videos from YouTube. After that AirPlay icon from MacBook menu bar simply disappears. Could some help. I'm using 2 Mbps Internet

    Hello. I've Apple TV 3rd gen and MacBook Pro 2013 all with latest updates. AirPlay works fine till I don't start streaming videos from YouTube. After that AirPlay icon from MacBook menu bar simply disappears. Could some help. I'm using 2 Mbps internet connection.

    Same issue here- I can airplay my amazon prime library just fine from my iphone 5 but on my macbook- (mavericks, 15 inch 2013 retina with quad core i7, nvidia 650 M and SSD) it just sputters and lags.
    I have noticed web video is considerably worse than local content, giving me pauses of up to 2 or 3 seconds in which video stops but audio continues in the amazon player. Youku video, however, seems relatively stable. Our subscription speed is 25 mbps, so that should be plenty to stream SD video from Amazon and doesn't account for why it would be nice and stable from the iphone, but not the mbp.
    Playing light, locally hosted steam sidescrollers  like Limbo is better but gives periodic drops in framerate on the Tv. when mirroring the framerate remains steady on the MBP screen.
    Games airplayed from my iphone seem relatively stable, though with a noticably lower framerate on the TV than on the phone.
    It seems these issues have abated considerably since yesterday's Apple TV update, but are still curious nonetheless and I'm not sure that the update yesterday was specifically meant to address those issues or if I'm just getting a time with less network interference now.
    Comcast recently installed a new router/modem/phone combo, replacing our old separate modem and router setup. I'm going to test if putting the network on a different channel helps.

  • Why does an email sent from an iPad or iPhone to ms outlook appear with attachments? Example signatures tend to be broken down into a series of unwanted attachments!

    Why does an email sent from an iPad or iPhone to ms outlook appear with attachments? Example: signatures at the bottom of the mail tend to be broken down into a series of unwanted attachments!

    It worked for me. I took a picture with the iPhone's camera. Then opened the Photos app and selected the picture, and emailed it from one of my IMAP accounts to my gmail (also IMAP) account. When it showed up in the gmail inbox (on my iPhone), I forwarded it to my yahoo mail account (choosing the "inlcude attachments" option). When that showed up on my iPhone's yahoo inbox, the picture was there just as it should be.
    So I guess the next thing would be to try it with non-iPhone pictures to see if it is a problem with image size or something. I have some 6-megapixel images in iPhoto I can try (taken as RAW/DEC format pictures with my dSLR).
    Just tried it sending a Photo from my computer's iPhoto library - picture is 728KB, 2272x1704 jpeg. I emailed it to my gmail account, and it showed up on the iPhone just fine. Then I forwarded that to my yahoo account and again, it showed up just fine on both the iPhone and reading my yahoo mail via the web page.
    Don't know what to say - I don't mean this to be just another "works for me" post. I was hoping to see something maybe depending on the size and origin of the picture.
    By the way, my 3GS shipped with 3.0.1 on it, and I've updated it via iTunes normally to 3.1.1 and currently 3.1.2. Sorry I don't have anything constructive to add.

  • HT201335 When I try to airplay mirroring live tv from my ipad or iphone i alway got the message "an error occured loading content" when i turn the full sceen on.

    When I try to airplay mirroring live tv from my iPad or iPhone I always got this message "An error occured loading content" when i turn to full screen.

    No, you do not have to set anything special. That would then indicate an issue with your network.
    Make sure DNS is set to automatic (settinga - general - network). If on wifi try ethernet. Reboot ATV and router.
    If it persist, get a proper report of the network by going to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC), look for signal strength and noise.

    Delete the shortcut and make a new one. The 'real' application will probably be fine if you launch it from the Start/Programs menu.
