  • Hi, I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro but cant get the mirroring function to work with Apple TV.  I've got the most recent Software 10.7.5 but cant see the mirroring icon or turn this on.  I'm able to mirror from my Ipad but not my Mac, any thoughts?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    AirPlay Mirroring is supported on your Mac, but it needs OS X Mountain Lion (10.8). See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404
    You have two possibilities:
    1. Make a backup, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion to upgrade to this OS X. Then, you will find the AirPlay Mirroring icon at the top right of the display, on the menu bar, or on System Preferences > Displays.
    2. Keep OS X Lion and use AirParrot > http://www.airparrot.com
    Both options work properly, but I recommend AirPlay Mirroring as it doesn't need a third-party program

  • Does the Apple remote control work with MacBook Pro with retina? If yes, how can I sync it?

    Does the Apple remote control work with MacBook Pro with retina? If yes, how can I sync it?
    Thanks!

    It should. First, turn on BlueTooth on the computer. In BT preferences be sure to check the option to look for all devices. Your remote should be picked up and a notice asking if you want to Pair it with the computer. Select Yes. Once it is paired it can be used to control your computer.

  • Apple Remote stopped working with Lion on iMac

    My white Apple Remote does not work with Lion on my iMac 2.4ghz Core 2 Duo anymore.
    I'm sure it was working recently as I was able to control the volume on my RadioShark application.  Now that doesn't work anymore and I can't seem to get the remote to work with anything. 
    I've tried restarting my iMac, swapping the remote's battery, and using another remote but still no success.  The only response I get is from the remote's 'Menu' button which, when pressed, toggles between two graphics on screen - one a four-way arrow indicator with a centre button, and the other what appears to be a Forward/Back, Centre button with corner indications for Expand/Shrink.
    I've tried the 'Pair' option but pressing 'Menu' and 'Fast Forward' does nothing on screen - no sign of the chain-link 'Paired' symbol. Neither of the white remotes I tried is 'Paired' with the iMac.
    It seems I must have done something to cause this but can't think of any change I made that could be responsible.  I know Front Row is no longer accessible in Lion, but is there any other app I could test my remote on?  Any kind of hardware reset needed? (unlikely, I know, with two separate remotes showing the problem).
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks.

    I'm replying to my own question because my remotes are working again.
    I'm not sure what I did to fix the issue, but I tried shutting down all open applications (I remembered that by default Lion re-opens with everything as it was).  And shortly afterwards I got full functionality back for my Apple Remote.
    I'm not sure what caused the issue.  I did install Easy Timeline, which I'd downloaded today from the Mac App Store.  It has Apple Remote functionality, so I'm not sure if it was in some way implicated.  It's working now with my remote, as is iTunes, and RadioShark.
    Weird!

  • Cant get airplay and remote to work again.

    So im currently having problems getting airplay to work and remote to connect to my itunes again. I have the iphone 5 and iv been using airplay and remote on it since i got it untill couple of days ago i cant seem to get the airplay icon to show up when my reciever is on and i cant get it to connect to my itunes using remote. I already try restoring the phone but i dont think that was the problem. I get get airplay to work from itunes though. Bascially all the hardwired things can access airplay but not the wireless stuff like my iphone 4 and 5. I tried using my laptops itunes on the wifi and it didnt work but when i connected it to the router it works. Anyone having the same problem as be cause i dont know why is just stopped working all of a sudden when i didnt even change anything.

  • Apple Remote not working with Mac Mini

    Hi there,
    I woke up to quite a strange problem today... My Apple Remote is no longer working with my Mac Mini! I tried all the controls, including launching front row, and the volume controls - but no go...
    I even tried it in Windows BootCamp under iTunes, but it still wouldn't work..
    I tried pairing it in System preferences, but again, it wouldn't recognise my apple remote when i held down the Menu+fast forward keys for 5 seconds...
    The weird thing is, it works fine with my iMac on another floor (out of plain sight from my Mini..), and it isn't paired with the iMac or anything...
    Any idea what the problem might be? Thanks in advance!

    So you got a dead remote or a dead battery. Call AppleCare and it will be taken care of. What's the big deal? These things happen from time to time.

  • I cant get my Axiom 25 to work with my MacBook in Logic Pro 8. Anyone ?

    I have an M-Audio Axiom 25 and I cant get it to work in logic pro 8. Its plugged in... I have a new project open... I have an instrument assigned to a track...when I press the keys on the axiom Logic recognizes it because on the bottom of the window I see the note I'm pressing as well as it's velocity... This is exactly as I do on my roommate's MacBook Pro every day with the same keyboard... But none the less I don't get sound... even if i just click the piano roll... The levels for the track remain at zero all the time... Whereas on my roommate's computer I would be jamming... What is wrong??? PLEASE!!! SOMEONE HELP ME!!!
    O Yeah! I tried to download the latest drivers from M-Audio but there website just led to a dead end... And 10.5.1 was there latest version anyway... Can some send me a hyperlink to a location where I can actually download it from??? It would be greatly aprechiated...

    According to M-Audio's website you don't need a driver. If you click on the link that they have there this message pops up:
    'This device is class compliant and does not require driver support for OS X.'
    As for your other problem.....Dunno. Make sure you check the audio device preferences in Logic. Your roommates might be set for that piece but yours might not.
    Good Luck!

  • Cant get two apple devices to work together

    I have an Iphone 4s IOS 6.01  and a mini ipad ios 6.02.  I can't seem to get these to work together on iCloud.  I have watched the videos about being on Safari on one device and being able to pick up on the other device and visa vers.  Is it because the are 6.01 and 6.02?
    This is driving me mad.

    Thanks for helping.  I have the same id for both deviecs and safari is turned on both devides.  From there I am not sure what you mean....sorry all of these are new toys!
    I opened up safari on my iPhone to on the internet (im guessing thats what you mean), the I opened up safari on the ipad and went to bookmards but there is no folder called iCloud.  There is an iCloud icon next to the bookmark button but is i open it its just greyed out saying "it automacily shows all the open tabs on other devices"
    What am I doing wrong?

  • Bought used Ipad,can,t get new apple id to work with Itunes. I have " Reviewed" acct, but the info box just goes grey and fuzzy at the last " continue" prompt

    "reviewed" info and at last continue prompt, the info box goes ogrey and fuzzy and responds with" do you want to cancel?" How do I get past this so I can order apps crom Itunes?

    Home Sharing is designed to work on your local network not across the internet/cloud.
    Stuff is accessed under the Computers column where your local iTunes library on a local computer would appear.
    Home Sharing would share your iTunes content (i.e. stuff stored in itunes on the computer, not in the cloud) with AppleTV or an iPad etc on the SAME network.
    AppleTV2 will not be able to see itunes content on the work computer over the internet.  It's not designed to.  if the work computer was on the home network it would.
    iCloud is in it's infancy and is not a mature product - iTunes TV Show purchases appear on AppleTV, but currently music does not unless you are subscribed to iTunes Match. I find this rather odd to be honest, along with the inability to buy music on AppleTV2.  Movies purchased in iTunes are not authorised for iCloud viewing currently either.
    Maybe it has something to do with iTunes Match 'getting in the way' - i think they assume you'll use that whereas you really want to be able to access Purchased music from the cloud without subscribing to itunes Match which is overkill for some.

  • Getting the Apple Remote working with PowerPC

    Is there anyway of getting the Apple Remote to work with a PowerPC PowerMac G5? On my MacBook i have Front Row and it's awesome, but i really want something like that on my desktop. There's an app called MediaCentral:
    http://www.equinux.com/us/products/mediacentral/index.html that will work will all Macs so now all i need is a good remote.
    I have the AirClick and it's alright, but i find it quite slow and i can't sleep the computer with it. So is it possible to get the Apple Remote working in any way?
    Cheers

    Front Row first shipped with the G5 iMacs. The version on the install DVD that came with your MacBook should be a Universal Binary, and should install on your iMac.
    You will need to use an app called Front Row Enabler, but that's only because Front Row checks to make sure your Mac has a built in IR receiver.

  • Remote not working with Apple TV

    My Apple remote stopped working with my Apple TV the other day. The light on the Apple TV does flash as buttons are pressed, but nothing happens. I tried to pair the Apple remote, nothing. I tried to pair my Macbook remote, nothing. I have even pulled the plug a let it sit for a day before plugging it back in. I have recently upgraded to iTunes 7.3.
    Thanks

    What does it do when you connect it back up and turn it on, what screen do you get etc.

  • Can't get the zte mf627 to work with 10.9.2

    Hi I have an older 3 ZTE MF627 3G dongle. Cant get the loaded software to work with 10.9.2 on Macbook Air. Also cant find a download for new sofware for it to work....

    All USB network devices are to be avoided, if possible. They depend on complex third-party software that's often of poor quality and is prone to cause system instability. The software is rarely, if ever, updated, and may stop working entirely when OS X is updated. Use a mobile Wi-Fi or Bluetooth hotspot, either a mobile phone or a dedicated device—no software needed.
    If you have no choice but to use the device, your only recourse is to the vendor.

    The helpfulness of answers is limited by the details provided.  Just saying it does not work, or I got an error does not provide much to go on.  How is it not working?  What happens or does not happen?  Is an error returned?  If so what error.  Are you sure you are logging in with your home sharing ID?  It is not the same as your Apple ID or iCloud ID.
