HT201343 Can't See AirPlay icon on MacBook Pro
My MacBook Pro says its from early 2011 and is running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5
It can't see the AirPlay on the laptop, only the iTunes account. How can I see it to enable mirroring? Both of our MacBook Pros are on the same wireless network as our AppleTV.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
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).

Can I upgrade my mid 2010 macbook pro to use airplay?
Unfortunately, no you can't.
Just to be clear. Your computer will support AirPlay it's just AirPlay Mirroring that requires newer hardware.

Thanks to the $15 Beamer, AirPlay streaming is still possible on Macs that do not support Airplay and mirroring.
Other solutions are the Air Parrot, StreamToMe, and AirServer. -
I just bought Apple TV and have a new iPad. I can't see the airplay icon. I saw it for a brief second, I tried to click on it but it indicated an operations error. I have read several troubleshooting suggestions and have tried them all but nothing seems to be working.
Hold down the sleep/wake button and home button at the same time until the apple
Ogo appears then release. Then try again with airplay -

How can I see who made my Macbook Pro with Retina Display screen?
Hello,
I've read that the LG display burns into the screen. I've done the thing in Terminal "ioreg -lw0 | grep IODisplayEDID | sed "/[^<]*</s///" | xxd -p -r | strings -6" and all it says is Color LCD. Am I doing something wrong? Or does it not say?
ThanksHello again. Just to be clear, I want to know how to find out if Samsung or LG made my screen.
Thanks again!!! -
HT1600 No Airplay on my macbook Pro actualized :(
I have a "late 2011 MacBook Pro" since june, 2012; of course actualized since some days ago with Mountain Lyon... and I also have my apple TV 5.0.2 actualized and started, in the same wifi network.
All is correct but it's impossible... I can`t see AirPlay icon on my menu bar or screen monitor window so... how can I do/repare it!?Hello Vazandrew,
Thanks for your answer. Yes, I already cheked both links before post yesterday.
I have "MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2011)" and I verified info about Airplay. I have a correct MacBook but it behaves like an old one
I know my Apple TV runs well since I use it with an iPhone 4S and iPad, but I can't run Airplay from the MacBook.
I was waiting for Lyon Mountain and got a remote control compatible with both (Apple TV and Mac Book) waiting to use this new feature but right now I'm a little frustating.
Thanks again for your help.

How do we make the apple icon on Macbook pro?
Hi, I wonder how I can make the apple icon on Macbook pro and how i make a heart ( not like this - <3) Someone knos what I have to do?
Option-shft-K will get you the Apple logo in many, but not all, fonts.
To find a font with a heart glyph use Character Viewer.
Topher Kessler provides a how-to in this CNET article. He even uses "heart" in his search example.

I can't do much more to convince you!
You could always update that wiki
