Can I use Airplay with dvd to watch dvd on my tv via AppleTV 3?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Of course. If your Mac is compatible with AirPlay Mirroring, you can watch your DVD in your TV with the Apple TV. Read > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404 You just have to play the DVD on your MacBook and turn on AirPlay Mirroring.
If your Mac isn't compatible with AirPlay Mirroring, you can use a third-party app like Beamer

  • Can I use airplay with lion

    Is it possible to use airplay with lion?  I would like to display the content of my Macbook on my HDTV via Apple TV. Thank you!

    Sadly, only music and videos saved in itunes can be streamed to the appletv. Hopefully this will change soon!

  • HT201335 Can i use airplay with the apple tv and airport express without an internet connection? Basically Set it up as a closed network?

    I was told I could set a local network with the airport express, apple Tv, and my iPad to stream videos or pictures to a TV for a presentation.
    No internet connection is available at the location.
    Is that possible? Or do I need to access itunes homeshare with an internet connection to make this work?
    I've set it up at home where I have an internet connection and it works fine but I want to move the setup to my church for a class. The data I'm using is stored on my ipad.
    I know I can do this wired with the HDMI adapter but would like to do it wireless.
    Thanks for any help!

    Ok so we now have a solution to the problem.   A friend of mine came round to work this out with me last night and we were able to get it working, but it is not as easy as I had hoped.  Fisrtly we plugged the airport express into my router using the ethernet cable  (for this I am using an Airport Express Base Station") and in airport utilities selected the airport express.  In edit, we then gave the airport express a new range of IP address which did not conflict with any of the other applications that I have already assigned.  We also named the Airport Express with a distinguishable name.  We then waited for the changes to be registered then unplugged the Airport Express from the router.  I then plugged my AppleTV via HDMI into a tv to test it and selected the new wifi network with the new Airport Express distinguishable name.  I was able to watch a video that I have on my ipad directly on my tv without being connected to the internet, and was able to play Airplay presentations.
    No the easiest solution, and certainly not something that anyone at Apple has talked me through in my lengthy conversations with them at Applecare. 
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I use airplay with Macbook Pro 9,2 Mid 2012/ Mac OSX Lion 10.7.5

    What do I need to do to play Airplay on Apple TV from my computer.  The option is not in my display setting, so, obviously, I do not have the capability.  Do i need to upgrade my software?

    You can't.

  • How can i use airplay with apple tv on a set of audio speakers?

    hello there,
    i've got a problem with my stereo apple tv combination.
    my TV does support HDMI so i can use my apple tv on my HDTV. only my audio is being played on my internal speakers of my HDTV. I do have a set of speakers. but it doesn't support optical audio out. so i was wondering if its possible to use an Airport Express en plug my speakers in there. then wirelessly send the audio from my apple tv to my Airport/speakers. do any of you think that thats possible?? cause i really can't find another way to transfer my audio to my speakers...
    Thanks alot!!

    Unfortunately you can't send audio from the Apple TV to an airport express, but you can send audio from your mac/pc to the airport express via iTunes/Airplay, you could also send audio from an iPod/iPhone to the express. The express supports both optical and 3.5 mm in a unified port.

  • Can i use Airplay with other applications different to iTunes on my Mac Pro?

    Hi,
    I bought a Mac Pro 13' Retina Display two weeks ago and today i bought a Bose SoundTouch 20 and i connected both to my home network by ethernet cord. when i try to use applications like iTunes to send the sound of a song from mac to bose it work perfect, but when i try to do the same with spottily (i downloaded the app for my mac) simply doesn't work and don't know why. Another issue is that either can't send the sound of the movies and videos from mac to bose (i already try this using this configuration: send by airplay the movie to apple tv and from apple tv send the sound to bose, all work perfect because all was connected with ethernet cord).
    So the question is, Anyone know why the Airplay function only work with iTunes and with other applications simply doesn't?

    AirPlay only works with iTunes for Mac OS, iOS devices, and Apple TV.
    Not third party (non Apple) apps such as Spotify
    If the Bose Sound Touch supports Bluetooth, you may be able to stream music to the Mac or Apple TV. That's for sound, not video.

  • How can I use airplay with multiple speakers from my iPod?

    I recently purchased a bluetooth wireless speaker in hopes that, while the ipod is docked on a speaker system, I can listen to my music from both set of speakers.  Is there anyway to use multiple speakers with my ipod through the airplay system or an app that I can download to enhance my music listening experience?

    Based on previous discussions, You can only AiPlay to one set of speakers.

  • Why can I no longer use AirPlay with my Slingbox?  New updates break complatibility?

    Why can I no longer use AirPlay with my Slingbox?  New updates break complatibility?

    You already seem to know what the issue is, it is the parallax feature that was added to iOS 7.  From your rant, it appears that your attempt to work around this was not successful.  According to the Apple documents I've seen, they recommend that you enlarge your image (not reduce it).  Make your image have excess space on all sides, which is not displayed on the screen.  This way, when you tilt your device one direction or another, it can shift the image to give the appearance of 3D. 
    As a photographer, I like to use the full frame of my images, but I also know that I need to leave room around the image as well.  I have some photos I have taken that I can't use because I have them cropped too tightly too, but I have others that work just fine.  Just remember that part of the image file is "off screen" so that if iOS has to shift the image up it has some image that can scroll onto the screen.  It needs this space on all sdes, so just make youre images larger, and keep in mind that a portion on each side will be outside the normally visible screen...  If you don't like this feature, you can always go into the settigns and turn it off.

  • HT4437 Can you use airplay to stream from an iPad to a TV with a network connection without internet access

    Can you use airplay to stream from an iPad to a TV with a network connection without internet access

    Yes, you can use a network storage device for the storage of your content and use it on the Apple TV, but only as part of your iTunes library. So if your question is whether or not you can do this without using your computer or iTunes the answer is no.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a Mid 2011 or newer MacBook Air. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404 If it's compatible, you have two possibilities:
    1. Make a backup, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion. Then, you will be able to turn on AirPlay on System Preferences > Displays.
    2. Keep with OS X Lion and use AirParrot > http://www.airparrot.com
    Both options work properly

  • How can i use ipad with apple tv

    How can i use ipad with appletv

    Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
    When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices.
