I am thinking of upgrading my Macbook pro software to Mountain lion, and I just wanted to know if the airplay function is really all its cracked up to be?
For example can I stream videos from VLC to my apple tv?
Thanks team!!

Your question asked.....
Can either of these three connect to the existing router (which is not an Apple router and cannot be changed) wireless?
So we understood that you wanted to connect to the existing router using wireless.
If you can run an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on your existing router to the other house, then you could connect one of the Apple routers that way.
Compare the Apple routers here to find one that might meet your requirements:

  • I am thinking to upgrade my MacBook Pro

    I am thinking to upgrade my MacBook Pro (Winter & Fall 2011) from 4GB to 8GB. Wondering that is this RAM is the right RAM for my MacBook Pro.
    http://store.apple.com/my/product/MD633G/A
    And if it is so, how should I replace it? And if I did myself, will it void warranty?

    Use this instead:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_133 3MHz_SDRAM
    Installation is easy, as I did it myself.
    ifixit.com and macsales.com have videos, but it basiclly involves removing the screws on the bottom (note where they came from ... postition is important), swapping the RAM, then replacing the bottom and screws.  View the guides anyway.
    Oh ... needless to say "does not void the warranty".  I like warranties for my system.

    2.4ghz is plenty of processing, if it means you'll save money over the 2.7ghz. I'd have suggested 2.7 if you also do heavy video editing/rendering using FCP, etc... but the spec you have is plenty

    Once, Apple refurbs had serial numbers starting with "R" or "RM." That faded away several years ago so I don't think you can tell from the serial number any more. However, the carton is rather plain and says something like "Apple Refurbished Product" on it
    Most of the "mission-critical" Macs at our house are refurbs bought directly from Apple USA. They have all given superb and trouble-free service.

  • TS3742 MacBook Pro 13" with Mountain Lion Freezing at login and getting Kernel errors

    Ive been working on a friends MacBook Pro 13" with mountain lion for about a week now. It is having intermittent kernal panic errors on boot up only. It is also freezing up frequently at apple logo. Disk check passed, reformatted and reinstalled os. Switched out Ram. Still happening. Can anyone help.

    Linc Davis,
    I hope this is what you were requesting. I deleted out the UUID but as far as hang reports, wasn't sure what that would look like so I am sorry if that is included in this. Please let me know what you think.
    Thank you for your help in this.

    Terribly sorry Joseph Kriz. I had absolutley no intention of annoying anyone. This was the first time I have been communicating in a discussion group, and as I wrote my comments I had no idea how my typing would reflect and where my question would be going. Hope my unintentional typing will be forgiven and causes no further agitation.The only additional comment I can make on your response is that "I do not use capital letters or CAPS LOCK while I try to enter my administrator password".

    The ability to use AirPlay is BOTH an OS requirement(Mountain Lion) AND has hardware requirements.  You need to check and see if your 2010 Air will support Airplay.

  • I have a MacBook Pro 2012 running Mountain Lion 10.7.5 and the mirroring icon isn't showing up to stream to Apple TV

    I have a MacBook Pro 2012 running Mountain Lion 10.7.5.  I've been trying to get the mirroring icon to show up in the bar but no dice.  Any tips?  I've gone into System Preferences -> Display and there is no option to turn on mirroring.

    Welcome to the Apple Community maricespieces.
    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). You can see which Mac you have and which operating system you are using by selecting 'About this Mac' from the Apple menu in the top left corner of your Mac and selecting the 'More Info' button.
