HT204291 airplay turned on but mirroring option doesnt appear

I have turned on the Apple TV option via Airplay but the toggle to turn on Mirroring doesnt appear in my Itunes on my computer. I have a 2nd generation Apple TV with up to date software and an IMAC computer version 10.7.4 with up to date software. Any help?

Yes, OK but - it seems to me that when a new software item is launched Apple has a history of singing the most exuberant praises to the latest capability they now have developed and only after demand has reached boiling-point do they, gradually, hint that you actually need to upgrade in order to take advantage of their new trinket. And - yes,... - well,, you know - you may have to, under certain circumstances, actually, in fact pay, you know...money... That strikes me as dishonest, and links up with a very basic corporate strategy. First you lure them onto the caroussel, then you charge them. ITunes, for instance, is not for listening to music but for buying stuff - from Apple! Air Play and Home sharing is very strategically developed and limited in order to enable people in the Windows camp to include Apple items in their setups, but never to make it feasible for Apple users to jump ship and go for Windows Media Center or Android phones.
Yes, Mirror was a key feature of Moubntain Lion. Less key was that it would not work with anything less.
The strange thing is that since I switched from Windows rto Apple a few months ago I find myself at every turn a little more disillusioned by Apple and a little less inclined to act from any form of loyalty or trust - rather than what I expected, more and more confidence in the new environment where everyting is taken care of and solutions are part and parcel of this excellent colour-coordinated universe.
And yes, I could buy Air Parrot, I guess, and it might work. But then again it might not. And at the next juncture I'd find myself having to make the choice again - paying to stay abreast of new developments and media or standing my ground and patching up my trusted set-up with another piece of gum...and another...and another...
The price of Mountain lion is higher, but not that much higher, and I have to trust(?) that after that upgrade everything will work. If not I'll just have to look around for another...isn@t there something called Leopard?

RMBP can Airplay content from iTunes but mirroring option doesn't show up

I have the Late 2013 rMBP running 10.10.1. I also have the latest Apple TV which is working fine with my iOS devices.
The Airplay option shows up in iTunes and works fine in there but the mirroring option doesn't show up in the Menu Bar. I have checked the "show mirroring options in menu bar when available".
I haven't got another Mac to test the Apple TV yet.
I'm not sure what else to do.
Thanks

If the iPod does not appear in iTunes:
Did you do everything here:

HT204291 AirPlay a video but only sound playing on tv and no picture, what can I do.

Anyone know why there's sound but no picture when AirPlay a video ?

My friend have the same problem and I can´t connect with youtube to ATV with iPhone5, after recent update.
But Spotify works.

HT204291 AirPlay is indicated but will not play on my iPad

iPad shows AirPlay and the speaker in question but it will not play. I rebooted it. iPhone and iPod work fine.
Thoughts?

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Search in: "Service Registry" option doesnt appear - Configuration

Hello,
   I´ve tried the configuration of the Visual Composer for searching in Service Registry but I still cant see in the search in field the option "Service Registry". I´ve configured the destination type Service Registry to my physical system (destionation template management) but I still have the problem. I used this guides:

Hello,
I changed my configuration following this tutorial,
   http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/4094345f-341f-2b10-86a0-86a6309f1a0b
     In the tutorial, there is no need for creating a service registry of type ABAP, it used JAVA pointing to the local service registry (where its suppose to be all the services of the company). So I did this, and the Service Registry appears in my search in field of the Visual Composer. But, when I try to search something, it shows me "Search returned no results". I dont know if I have missed some step. when I search in http://localhost:port/sr, I find all my services. It seems the service registry its not linked at all.
Thanks
Regards
SU

App asks to have location services turned on but App does not appear in location list.

I start the EZ Word Cheats and it starts with the menu open. I click on Quick Import and a blue box appears with the message to turn on Location services in settings. I start the settings app, click Privacy, click Location Services, but EZ Word Cheats does not appear in the list of Apps that can have Location Services turn on. Shutting the iPad off or resetting it does not help.

I reset location services in Setting>General>Reset>Reset Location & Privacy and that fixed the problem. I need not need to restore from new. When I ran EZ Word Cheats after the resetting location services and then clicked on the Quick import under the menu, a message came up asking access to Photos instead of location services. This is the correct behavior since the program does need access to my photos but does not need Location services.

TS4085 AirPlay for iPhone 4 is working but not giving me the mirroring option

I have been installing apple tv's in a local elementary school and sync them up to their iPads. Some of them come up fine and work instantly w turning on the mirroring option. But a few of them the mirroring option comes up but does not allow me to select to turn it off and on. I brought one home to mess with it to try to figure it out better but I ran into the same issue w my iPhone 4. The apple tv shows up in the mirror selection but does not give me the option to turn it on or off. Would like some help with this if possible. Thank you for your time.

Ok. As I said that model does not allow for mirroring. As for the iPad it needs to be on the same network and ATV up to date as well as enabled for airplay.

Zen xtra is detected, but doesnt appear in my computer!

Hi guys! I havent used my zen xtra in a while. I d/led and installed the latest drivers today, as I wanted to back up my music. I followed the instructions for installing the drivers, and everything went fine. I connected the device, and it said blah blah...new device detected, detected zen xtra etc....yor device is now ready to use...
fine....but it just doesnt appear as a mass storage device in my computer!! Neither is it detected by their creative media source.
The device appaers as a zen xtra in device manager, under usb devices, and says it is working fine!
I dont get it's!
....uninstalled, re-installed, removed from device manager, got all my latest updates etc...
The only thing of note is that the battery is totally dead, and im powering it off the mains. Havent installed the latest firmware, but that shouldnt matter, right?!
Any suggestions?
cheerz,
dug

hey mate!
Thanx for that! It personally would make sense for me for creative to include that extra program within the drivers!! ... I just thought it was an optional extra!!
Having said that, Im still pretty sure that my zen used to appear in my computer!! As I used to be able to drag standard files into it!...maybe I need to d/l <EM>another</EM> program for that!!
Thax loads anywayz,
regards

File Format options not appearing in the Save As dialog box - InDesign CC

So i was working with a legacy file (an .eps from illustrator4) that i placed into InDesign CC, and when i went to export as a jpg, the option to choose a different file format from the bottom of the dialog box was gone. Did i hit some crazy shortcut to remove the options, or is this a bug that occurs when working with certain legacy files? I've restarted InDesign, rebooted my laptop, deleted my Adobe preferences, reset my adobe warning dialogs, and I still cant export or save as any other file format because the option doesnt appear. And it doesnt matter if i create a new file or open an existing one. Please help. See the pic below. No option for file format on the bottom of the dialog box.

Thank you very much!
Reinstalling worked, but i'd still kinda like to know what caused this problem & if this will continue to happen. To me, reinstalling is pretty much like having to reboot anytime you go to IT -- they dont know what the problem is, they just know how to fix/stop it.

HT1600 Why does my iPhone 4 show AirPlay on my slider button but no option to turn on or off so I can mirror it with my apple tv?

My iPhone 4 slider appears from double tapping the home button. I can check the Apple TV option, but there is no option to turn on the mirror so I can AirPlay with my apple tv. How do I fix that? I updated my software. Thanks

If you are having issue with MMS, then you will need to conact your phone carrier and see if they can resolve it for you.
