A supported Mac
AirPlay Mirroring in OS X takes advantage of the hardware capabilities of recent Macs to deliver high frame rates while maintaining optimal system performance. The following Mac models support AirPlay Mirroring::
iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)
Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer)
Mac Pro (Late 2013)
Your computer does not meet the minimum hardware requirements.

    stevie, a third party app called airparrot will give you the pretty much the same as mirroring and forks on Macs too old to mirror.

    I downloaded the latest iOS7 to my iPad and then the screen went blank and would not respond.   I have tried pressing the two buttons together and briefly get the Apple logo but still can not restart, the logo disappears.   I have tried connecting to my iMac to restore the iPad but the device does not show up (I have an old iMac).   What else can I do?

    You need to be running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 at the very least in order to sync your iPad with iTunes so you could update your Mac, if it can be updated, and if you care to do so.
    If that's not an option, you will have to find someone that can restore the device for you with their computer running iTunes or make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask them to restore the device for you.
    I hope that you have an iCloud backup, because you will lose everything on the device when it is restored.
    Snow Leopard can still be purchased in the U.S. Apple Online Store.

    Also, I would not give up on the reset technique....holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears. It takes about 10-15 seconds and sometimes just a little longer to get the logo to appear.

  • I just updated my RAM and I keep getting a crash report. I have a 21.5 Inch mid 2010 imac. I also am experiencing slow load times and when I try to open Final Cut it says that quartz extreme is not compatible and that I have no VRAM even though I do.

    There have been a few reports on here where Corsair RAM seems to have caused users a lot of grief with crashes.
    The recommendation on here, mostly, is to only buy RAM from macsales.com or crucial.com as they guarantee their modules will work and offer a no quibble lifetime guarantee.
    I'd put the original RAM back in, return the Corsair chips for a refund and re-order from one of those two companies.

    You can have Apple replace the logic board, but it will be at your expense.  The free replacement program has ended.
    As a band aid you may try the following:

    This will allow you to run on only the integrated GPU.

    Yes. You need 2011 or later in order to mirror as it requires the newer processor. The alternative is airparrot, which does it via software.

    Problems installing OS
    I have an iMac 21.5 (mid-2010) and I'm trying to install a new hard drive.  When I choose the installation disk the Apple logo comes up and it stops there.  Then the mouse and keyboard goes dead.  I'm trying to install 10.6.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks

    Since you have a new hard drive, there is nothing on it, so you need to boot from an external source (and probably format the hard drive before installing an OS). Are you booting from the 10.6 install disk? Better yet - do you have a bootable backup clone or at least a Time Machine backup?

    Log out of iCloud in the System/iCloud preference pane and disable Photo Stream in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.  Then log back in and re-enable, respectively.  That should jump start Photo Stream.

  • I recently bought a mac book air (mid 2013) and the power adapter that came with it does not fit into the port.

    The port has a small silver knob next to the pins that is preventing the adapter from connecting. I've never seen a port that looks like this and the tech specs say that the port should be a magsafe 2.  Has anyone seen anything like this before? I've included a picture

  • I have a Macbook Pro 13 inch Mid 2010 and I am going to be installing a new hard drive soon what do i need to do to format the drive once i install it

    How to replace or upgrade a drive in a laptop
    Step One: Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    Step Two: Remove the old drive and install the new drive.  Place the old drive in an external USB enclosure.  You can buy one at OWC who is also a good vendor for drives.
    Step Three: Boot from the external drive.  Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager appears.  Select the icon for the external drive then click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Step Four: New Hard Drive Preparation
      1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
      2. After DU loads select your new hard drive (this is the entry with the
          mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of
          the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive
          is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  Otherwise, click on the
          Partition tab in the DU main window.
      3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from
          the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended
          (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to
          GUID  then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and
          wait until the process has completed.
      4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the
          drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main
          window.
      5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the
          Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to
          return to the Erase window.
      6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several
          hours depending upon the drive size.
    Step Five: Clone the old drive to the new drive
      1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
      2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
      3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
      4. Check the box labeled Erase destination.
      5. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the
          Destination entry field.
      6. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the
          Source entry field.
      7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the new internal drive. Source means the old external drive.
    Step Six: Open the Startup Disk preferences and select the new internal volume.  Click on the Restart button.  You should boot from the new drive.  Eject the external drive and disconnect it from the computer.

  • I have a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2010) and iMac (27-inch, Late 2012) - can I work between both?

    I have been using my MacBook Pro for several years and still use it on-the-go but at home now I have the Late 2012 iMac, I bought a Thunderbolt cable but found it wouldn't work with the MBP.
    When I'm working on the laptop - and I return home - is there a way I can then transfer the work to the iMac and vise-versa.
    Obviously cloud services like Dropbox exist but I'm looking for an alternative as I transfer quite a lot of files.

    Hi there,
    The simplest way is to drag it across wirelessly using the 'Airdrop' application once both computers are near one another. 'Airdrop' can be found near the top, on the left hand side menu, within 'Finder'.

  • How to upgrade my iMac 27-inch Mid 2010 for video editing?

    Hi there, I have an iMac 27-inch, Mid 2010 1TB that I would like to upgrade to work well with film editing (using programs like Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects.)
    My System's specs:
    iMac 27 Inch Mid-2010
    - 3.2 GHz Intel Core i3
    - 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    - ATI Radeon HD 5670 512 MB
    - Last 4 Digits of the Serial Number is JDNP
    I'm quite unfamiliar with upgrading an iMac and was hoping I could find some help here regarding what is possible to upgrade on my system?  I understand that installing RAM is quite easy, but is it possible to upgrade the Processor and Graphics Card?  And what about Installing a bigger hard drive or SSD?  Also, where do I take my iMac to get these upgrades?  Apple Store?  Hopefully I'm not sounding like a complete idiot here.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    If you are not computer savvy and have never upgraded a computer before, then you need to see what Apple can do for you, but it maybe better to take your Mac to a third party Apple authorised reseller/repair center as they will be more likely to do actual modifications to your Mac. Apple stores tend to only stick with installing stock OEM Apple hardware.
    The CPU cannot be replaced or upgraded or replaced as I believe it is soldered to the logic board.
    The GPU maybe able to be upgraded, but the only other GPU option that it can be replaced with is the the 1 GB VRAM GPU version that was a GPU chip model available during the 2010 iMac model year.
    This will be hard to locate and, probably, very expensive to purchase (at least $300 U.S.D..).
    A third party Mac compatible SSD should be able to be installed, but will be expensive, too!
    Get as large an SSD as you can afford to purchase and pay for the installation.
    If you stick with a traditional hard drive, your Mac can take up to a 3 TB hard drive.
    You CAN install additional RAM yourself. However your Mac year and model will only take a total of 16 GBs of RAM.
    Correct, compatible and reliable Mac RAM can ONLY be purchased from online RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (http://www.macsales.com).

  • Is OS X Mavericks supported on Macbook (13-inch, Mid 2010)?

    Can I upgrade my OS to OS X Mavericks on my Macbook (13-inch, Mid 2010)? Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Of course. OS X Mavericks requires a Late 2008 Aluminum or Early 2009 or newer MacBook, so you can upgrade to OS X Mavericks.
    Open the Mac App Store and download OS X Mavericks. Make a backup of your data with Time Machine and check that your apps are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com
