IMac Late 2012 will NOT display airplay mirroring icon in the toolbar.

Here's what i have:
Late 2012 21.5 inch iMac
2.7 GHz Intel Core i5
8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M 512 MB
I used to have the Airplay icon in the upper right hand corner of the screen dispkayed, but i had a strange reset a month ago, and now the icon wont come back. I have reset my apple TV, Airport extreme, and imac numerous times, but can;t seem to get it to work.
Here are my display settings:
and the empty toolbar (but i'm sure you don't need it):
Haven't been able to mirror my iMac since it crashed. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X
Make sure that AirPlay is turned on in the settings menu of the Apple TV.
If you use a firewall, make sure the following firewall security options have been set to allow AirPlay Mirroring to work:
Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu ().
Click Security & Privacy, then click Firewall.
Click the lock icon to unlock it if it's locked, then type an administrator name and password.
Click Firewall Options.
Deselect (uncheck) the “Block all incoming connections” checkbox.
Select (check) the “Automatically allow signed software to receive incoming connections” checkbox.

  • IMac Late 2006 Will Not Boot Up

    I have a late 2006 iMac. The problem I have is that it will not boot up. I press the power button and the light comes on but the display is blank. Do you all think the problem is the logic board?
    Thanks in advance,
    Andrew

    Could be. Is it that the display is blank but the system is running???? If so, what if you connect an External Monitor.
    My iBook has been having Logic Board issues similar to what you say though, but it's because of a chip on the lower side of the board that become desoldered. I ended up putting a small piece of rubber onto it to apply pressure onto the chip once I reapplied the case/undercover. It works & I backed up everything, but it sometime acts up again with similar symptoms as your iMac.

  • Photoshop CS6 content (pictures, etc) will not display (or only partually) on the stage.

    I just purchased and loaded Photoshop CS6.  Pictures (actually this is for all content in any layers) will not display at all or only partually display (see picture below). I uninstalled and reinstalled the program but there is no change.  The other Adobe products from the Master Suite Collection run fine (Flash, Encoder, etc).  I am thinking that my instalation disc may be corrupted.  Can you give me any advice?

    Most likely the video card driver.  Update it in GPU makers website.  Need make and model of video card.

  • 21.5-inch iMac (late 2011) will not turn on.

    My iMac went to sleep (as I normally allow it to do at night), and the next morning it would not turn on at all. No startup screen, no apple logo, nothing. I do, however, hear the fan very slightly. And every once in a while I will hear the disc drive as if it's trying to eject a disc, but after that, there is no activity.
    I unplugged the iMac from the surge protector and plugged it back in, nothing. I plugged it directly into the wall and tried to turn it on, nothing. I still hear the fan, and the disc drive still tries to eject a disc occasionally (I'm not sure if there is a disc in there or not).
    We did have a power outage a few days ago, but (1) it was plugged into a surge protector, and (2) I have used the iMac since then.
    I searched the forums, but most solution says to perform tasks that I can't perform, because it will not turn on. I have tried resetting the SMC:
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord.
    Wait fifteen seconds.
    Attach the computer's power cord.
    Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
    I would post the OS, but I'm not sure what it is, as my computer will not turn on. I know it's a version of Lion, OS X 10.7 (but I did not install the latest update yet).
    Nothing has worked. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    If you do not hear the startup chime that means your Mac has not passed it's startup diagnostics tests.

  • In Organizer my media pics will not display. When i import the pics are displayed until i try to display another file and then they are gone???

    I am lost....i recently upgraded to PSE 12 and my files all show imported but i cannot display any pics.

    Click on the top View menu and ensure you have all the media types selected to show.

  • After upgrading from 3.6.16 (Mac) to v. 4, the "organize Bookmarks" menu item is gone. Also, the Downloads window will not come up (I have reset the Toolbars as suggested elsewhere.)

    The above says it all:
    No "Organize Bookmarks" item at all in the Bookmarks menu.
    I have the prefs set to display the Downloads window when downloading, but it doesn't appear. Downloads do happen correctly. Clicking on the Downloads item in the Tools menu does nothing. I reset toolbars as suggested somewhere else on the troubleshooting site - no joy.

    Thanks re: Bookmarks.
    After going through all the routines suggested in the link above (and other related links,) I got the Downloads window to open when making a new download, but clicking on Downloads in the Tools menu still will not reveal the window manually.

  • I am trying to reinstall winows 7 on my iMac and it will not install. I am using the latest drivers ( v4.0) but I still get the black screen. I have made sure that the auto install and the drivers are at the root level on my USB flash drive.

    I am reinstalling W7 on my iMac and keep getting the black screen. I had installed W7 before when using Snow Leapord but W7 doesn't want to install with the latest drivers (v4.0). W7 was working with Lion but I had to uninstall W7 and now I cannot reinstall.

    NOTE: Just discovered that Adobe is making a bigger mess than any previously.
    They now have a 32-bit uninstaller for Flash '''''AND''''' a separate 64-bit uninstaller for Flash. You will need the 64-bit uninstaller for what you had installed above.
    *32-bit uninstaller: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player_32bit.exe
    *64-bit uninstaller: download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player_64bit.exe

  • AirPlay Mirroring Icon does not show up

    Hi, for whatever reasons, my MacBook Pro does not show the AirPlay Mirroring Icon in the Statusbar. Yes, it is a later 2011 model of the MacBook Pro (the one with Thunderbolt) so it is definitely compatible. Does anyone have an idea, where to find the icon?

    Make sure your Apple TV is a second or third generation, the version is updated to 5.0.2 and AirPlay is turned on.
    Both devices also have to be on the same network.

  • Overnight, text body of emails will not display for messages in inbox-only the from and to and a subject line displays. Draft messages in Ipad display fully. Inbox emials display fully on my main  Dell computer and my Iphone. Any ideas?  Duanekot

    Overnight, the taxt body of emails will not display for all messages in the inbox.  Only the From and To and a subject line display.  All messages in my Draft Mailbox display fully. Also, all emails in my Dell laptop and my Iphone display fully.  Any ideas?? Duanekot

    See if this helps .... Reset the iPad.
    Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider bar - let go of the buttons and let the iPad start up. Then check your emails.

  • I have placed a photoshop file within a new picture and it will not display

    i have placed a psd file within a new psd file and it will not display.  It flashed on the screen for a moment and then disappeared, and no matter how many times I try, it will not show

    I started a new file, placed the image and the screen went into a bizarre pattern. I ended up closing the program and starting fresh and it worked properly.  Something went wonky during the session I guess.

    Intermittent connection screws up Netflix, VOIP phone, Amazon, Streaming music via Spotify/Pandora, general internet access.....whole family is ****** off.
    Any tips/tricks/ideas???

    Downgrade firmware to 7.6.1 .. as the latest is just lousy.
    It is easy to downgrade.. hold down the option key whilst you click the version number. in Macs.. lots of stuff is hidden behind an option key.
    I also strongly recommend a factory reset and use all SMB names.. not apple type names..
    ie TC name.. TCgen4
    Wireless name TCwifi (or give names to both bands.. TC24ghz and TC5ghz).
    That helps all the non-apple part of the world.. connect.
    Also Mavericks has now changed over to SMB as well. So even Mac is now windows networking.
    Generally these two things. .7.6.1 firmware and SMB names will fix it.. if not post again as is another step that is possible.. controlling the WAN speed of the TC.

  • My phone will not display my address book !

    My Blackberry 8900 will not display my address book. The addresses are there and on the sim card, but I can not get them to be displayed on the phone. I have tried copying them but does not seem to work. What do I do.  Thanks in advance for all your help.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Are the contacts in your BlackBerry Address Book AND on your SIM card?
    Or ONLY on your SIM card?
    Open your Address Book, press the Menu key then click on Filters, and make sure no Filters are checked.
    Now, look in the Address Book again.
    Anything?
    If not, please give some detail of your situation.

  • Skygo content will not display on TV when mirror function enabled

    my skygo content will not display on my TV when I stream from my iPad and have mirror function enabled. It will stream other video content. I get a message that HDMI out is not supported by the application and a black screen. I do hear the sound of the program being streamed. Can the block be overcome?
