I don't see the airplay on my mac
I just purchased mountain lion, and the airplay does not appear in the top
Airplay and Airplay mirroring are not the same. Airplay will work on your pre 2011 Mac. Airplay mirroring, on the other hand, requires in-GPU H264 encoding which according to apple is only available on the 2011 Macs.
Airparrot works by doing the H264 encoding via your CPU. It is not the most ideal method (heating, fans kick in, etc) which is why apple decided to draw the line at 2011.

I don't see the Airplay button
I just update to 4.2 and I don't see the Airplay button, is it only visible when you have a airplay device compatible visible from the Ipad?
Thanks

You need to ensure you are connected to the same LAN network as the airport/airplay device, and then choose the device form the iPhone/iPad to connect, it is very simple and does work...
I have 2 devices, and they both connect to any device i have on the airplay network.
Remember if you set up a password for the airplay device you will need this to be able to connect...!
I will also point out, that if you are currently connected to these airplay devices using iTunes on the same network, this MAY restrict airplay from finding them as they will be considered to be "in use" and there for won't show up. The best way to check on this, is change your iTunes too computer only. -
I don't see the AirPlay button on the bottom right of my iTunes (v 10.6.3) window. Does anyone know why and how I can set it up? Thanks!
You do not have to have an Apple TV, but you should have an AirPlay capable speaker on your network.

I have a Mac pro with osx ml in a Ethernet connection and a apple tv with a wireless, there is no way I can see the airplay in my Mac pro
Mac Pros don't support Airplay. Only some post 2011 Macs do, MAc Pros aren't amongst them.

You could try Airparrot software as a workaround.

I have an iPad 2 and an iPhone 4S. I bought Apple TV recently and I've gotten bored of just using it to stream Netflix. I've been trying all morning to get Airplay to work on either my iPad or my iPhone, but I don't even see the Airplay icon when I doubleclick the Home button and swipe right. For a while when I first bought my Apple TV, I was able to play movies from my MacBook to my AppleTV, but now I don't see that option on my MacBook either. What is going on?!? At this point, I'm feeling like AppleTV might have been a waste of $99 if it's so difficult to get to work properly, but there has to be something that is wrong. I haven't changed any security settings or anything recently, and all my devices are running off the same wifi network. I tried everything that Apple says to do if Airplay doesn't work, but nothing is helping.
You have to swipe in a left to right motion. If the airplay icon isn't showing up it's likely something within your network that is blocking it. You can also try rebooting devices and router.

I have a late 2011 machine. I keep the display icon in the menu bar but I can't find anything that will get the airplay icon to show. I'm tyring to connect to my Apply TV, which is on.
I do have Air Display on the machine, not sure if that's messing it up.I'm running OSX 10.7.5.
That's what's up.
AirPlay mirroring requires OS X 10.8. Buy Mountain Lion in the App Store. -

Why don't I see the airplay icon in my settings? I have the ios7 installed now my netflix won't work as need to turn off mirroring..... And the airplay device is not installed.... Anyone help on this?.
Reboot your router. The icon only shows when connected to wifi and Apple TV or similar device. Same thing happened with my phone and the icon appeared in control center after router reboot.

I'm having trouble loading photos on my I phone 4s and I pod. I don't see the photos tab in I-tunes? I'm sure its user error but wanted to get some help.
What's the origin of this external drive? It sounds very much like it's a Windows-formatted (NTFS) drive which Macs can't write to. If you can, copy the files off the drive, reformat it as Mac format (using Disk Utility) and copy the files back. If you need to continue writing to it from a Windows PC, you should format it ExFAT in Disk Utility.

The Airplay icon does not show on my Mac Pro, regardless that it is clicked on display. How can I do to see the Airplay Icon in order to connect my apple TV with my Mac Pro?
To check your model go to About This Mac (by clicking on the Apple icon, top left) and then select more info. If you wish to use mirroring you will need one from 2011 or later running OSX 10.8 or later. The alternative would be to use 3rd party software like Airparrot.

Hi, Joann
JustAnswer has asked me to answer your question -- "I have iPad 2 and I don't see the little box at top in safari with the number on it that I can tap to get to my open pages
On iPad 1 it was next to the little open bookNot with iOS 5 no. A number of other people have made the same comment about it, so you could try leaving feedback like some of them will have done, and maybe in a future iOS update we'll get the choice : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
