When I mirror my macbook pro to my apple tv the only thing that shows up is one video that's on my desktop. How can I watch something that's online on my laptop, on my apple tv?
Are you using mirroring or using airplay within iTunes? If you are truly mirroring then you can view anything that is displayed on your computer through Apple Tv
Or provide more info on your issue

Why is it that when I plug my Macbook Pro to an external monitor, the external monitor turns black and shows the mouse only
Hi, yes preferences sees there is a second display it recognises what make of monitor it is etc but I just get a blank blue screen on the monitor when I change it to the hdmi setting! I have tried with mirroring on and off, rearranging the displays in the preference window and lots of different resolution settings but with no difference.
An old MacBook connects fine so the monitor and hdmi port must be okay. I'm sure we have used the cable before but it could have been with the previous MacBook Air. The current one I'm using is a mid 2011 version running lion and is (according to software update) all up to date.
Any thoughts or help would be appreciated! -
I have the G Drive 1 TB (GEN4 1TB) external drive purchased in 2010. I need to connect to my new MacBook Pro. I'm using the external drive for media storage of my video editing projects. Will a 800fw to thunderbolt adapter cable work? I understand that using a USB port connection is not fast enough for video editing. I read somewhere the G Drives don't connect well to MacBook Pro.
thanks
larryI doubt this can be relocated or moved so you might want to just repost in the macbook pro area.

Can you afford a new Thunderbolt case and cable? any case with FW800 is going to be slow 72MB/sec and less, and any new 1TB drive is capable of 75MB/s minimum up to 125MB/sec.
Thunderbolt storage can of course when setup properly reach 100's of MB higher using multiple drives.
Use what you have for a system backup or for secondary backup storage.
you might be able to take the drive - most cases allow you to open and swap drives - and use this:
G-Technology 1TB G-DRIVE mini High-Speed Portable Hard Drive

My iphone 5 does not turn on anymore. when i plug the charger in the apple icon turns on and off but the home screen never shows up.what do i do to fix it? how can i get my info back?
from the information you provided i can't tell if it is a hardware problem or a software problem. I do have an idea though, try to press your home button and lock button at the same time.

HT4352 how can i watch something i've downloaded on Apple tv on my laptop?
how can i watch something i've downloaded on Apple tv on my laptop?
If it's a purchase then you would need to download it to your laptop by visiting the iTunes store - purchased (under quick links).
If it's a rental it will only be viewable on the Apple TV. -
I rented a movie and it does not show up on my apple tv but is in my video app on my phone. How can I watch it on my tv?
A movie rented on an iPhone can only be viewed on an iPhone. If you want to view on TV you need to rent directly on ATV or via computer (and stream using home-sharing)

When I bought my MacBook Pro from Apple online store, I didn't buy the AppleCare Protection Plan with it. Now I'm in a different country from where I've bought my MacBook Pro. Is it possible for me to buy AppleCare Protection Plan separately to cover my MacBook?
You should be able to do this if your MBP is still under the original warranty, i.e., under a year old, but it may vary depending on the region where you are. See: http://www.apple.com/legal/sales-support/applecare/appgeos.html

I have inherited an ICloud account from one of my employers when transferring from old MacBook Pro (which belonged to them) to new MacMini and need to separate from this, presumably by setting up a new ICloud account. How do I do this ? And is there any danger, in doing so, that I might delete any of her ICloud information ?
Sign out in System Preferences>iCloud. This will remove any synced data such as Calendars, emails and Contacts from your Mac, but will have no effect on the data on the server - so that other devices logged into it will continue to see the data.

I recently did a manual reboot after my MacBook Pro had frozen, and instead of the usual Apple and loading icon, it gave me the flashing question mark on a folder, which I've never encountered before. I looked up some possible reasons on my PC, and after reading that there's a problem with my HD I tried looking up how to back up my files so that I can do a clean reinstall of Yosemite (latest ver.). However, I've never used anything like Time Machine or anything else that could back up all my files, so it didn't sound like I could do anything about that at this point. I've also tried going into Disk Utility and attempting to repair the disk image. There was only 2 available, disk0 and the base system. I verified the base system, and told me there was nothing wrong (it didn't give me the option to repair anything either, on both available options). I don't think this is the right thing though, since my drive was called MacBook Pro HD. So basically this is the point I'm at now. Is there anything I can do that will repair my HD without erasing all my files?
I've tried all the suggestions and nothing has worked.

Hold the option key on boot to see if you can select your Macintosh HD.
A flashing question mark or globe appears when you start your Mac - Apple Support
You can boot into Recovery and re-install the OS X on top of what you have. It will preserve your user data.

I have an iPhone 4s and I connnected my phone to my laptop, which is a macbook pro. This is the second iPhone 4s I have had. The first one had a problem and I had to replace it which is the one I have now. When I connected my phone to the laptop, my phone shut down and when it turned back on, all my information from the first 4s phone went to the phone I have now. All the text messages from the old one, photos, apps, etc. Now my information like messages, photos, apps, etc from the current phone is gone, and I need them. What can I do? How can I get that information back?
Is the MacBook the computer you have synced with in the past? If not you can use the computer that you have synced with to restore your apps. Are you sure you are using the same Apple ID that you used to purchase the Apps?

So I recently bought a MacBook Pro off of someone so I can use it for school. The home folder is still in the previous owners name and I was wondering if there is any way I could change it without losing all of my stuff that is on the MacBook Pro?? Thanks for your help!

Hello Michael.Suarez,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If the iPod touch is showing an iTunes logo with a cable, then it is in recovery mode and will need to be restored to the factory settings. To get step-by-step instructions on how to do this, please follow the article below.
