Mac to TV to iPad?

I have my MacBook connected to my television via a cable so that I can show a document that is on my Mac to everyone in the room. I would also like to have what is showing mirrored to an iPad. Is this possible? I can only find information regarding hooking up iTV to mirror FROM the iPad to the TV. I'd like the opposite but I can't seem to find if this is possible.
I am practicing a speech and I'd like the iPad to act as a teleprompter. My friend is operating the MacBook and is scrolling down the words on the document. Ultimately I'd like to alternative between glancing at my television and my iPad as I give my speech.
Any insight greatly appreciated!

Hello 501ampm,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
I woulld take a look at this part of the article named:
Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4215
Troubleshooting performance issues with AirPlay or AirPlay Mirroring
If you are experiencing intermittent playback or significant network lag with AirPlay or AirPlay Mirroring, it could be due to a weak Wi-Fi connection, interference, or the distance between the Wi-Fi router and your iOS device, Apple TV or AirPort Express. Try the following suggestions:
Ensure that other devices are not trying to stream to the same Apple TV at the same time.
Turn off Bluetooth on your iOS device by tapping Settings > General > Bluetooth.
Ensure that your Wi-Fi router is set up with the recommended settings for the best performance.
Certain external devices, such as microwave ovens and baby monitors, may interfere with a Wi-Fi network. Try moving or disabling these devices.
If possible, try to locate your Wi-Fi router in the same room as your Apple TV and iPhone/iPad.
If your wireless and wired networks are the same, try connecting your Apple TV to the router via Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi.
If the Wi-Fi router has an external antenna, check to see that is it connected properly and in good condition.
Use the Wi-Fi network troubleshooting guide to resolve interference and other issues.
All the very best,
Sterling

    Hello friends
    We are trying to move our music library stored on the Mac to a second ipad.  We have already set up the second ipad and are only interested in getting select music onto the second ipad.  When we plug the ipad into the imac and connect to iturnes it wants to set up or restore the second ipad.  We're afraid if we do this it will remove all current information on the second ipad.  Thanks

  • Can I seamlessly toggle Apple TV between Mac Mini and Iphone / iPad?

    I am having a Mac Mini, iPad, iPhone and Apple TV. Currently i am using 2 HDMI cables 1 between TV and Mac Mini and 2nd between TV and Apple TV. Seems like If i toggle between iPad / iPhone display via apple TV and Mac Mini display via apple TV; it becomes an issue.

    Toggle how?  What are you doing?  Why do you have the MacMini connected to the TV?  That is the whole point of AppleTV.  It is a simple way ( in therory ) to get your content to your TV without having to plug your computer in to your TV.
    it becomes an issue.
    What does?  What is the issue?  What specifically fails or does not work?

    how do you permanently delete apps from all your mac products (MacBook Pro, iPad, iPhone)

    They are not taking up storage space.  Apple knows you installed them at one time (="purchased", whether you paid money or not), and merely keeps a list so that if you wish to reinstall any of them on this or a future device, you can.  This is useful if maybe you deleted them due to space constraints, and now have a device with more memory and wish to reinstall.
    It's also useful for taking a trip down Memory Lane looking at all the useless apps you installed once then immediately deleted once you realized they were total garbage ...

    If you are intending using your hot spot to download movies for the Apple TV, you'll very quickly eat through your data allowance.

    HTML link to pdf works ok on Mac but not on ipad. Adobe Reader for ipad downloaded. What's wrong?

    Hi pwillener,
    Thank for reply. The pdf’s are in a subfolder “PDF” of the folder holding the web page. The web page itself uses
    . This works in full size computer browsers but not in an iPad.
    My excursion through the search engine has produced the idea of adding #page = requesting page to the URL but I have not had time to try it perhaps without the = sign.

  • PDF from Mac to iBooks on iPad - how?

    PDF from Mac to iBooks on iPad - how?
    Before iBooks for Mac came along I simply dragged my PDF to iTunes and synced my iPad. I foolishly installed Mavericks and iBooks on my Mac.
    Now I have no idea how to drop PDF's to my iPad.
    There is a support article but no helpful at
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4227?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    What must I do? I simply want Apple drag 'n drop functionality back please.

    You should be able to add the PDF to the iBooks app on your Mac via File > Add To Library, and if you then connect your iPad to your Mac and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your Mac's iTunes then it should show on the iPad's Books tab for syncing to your iPad's iBooks app.
    Or you can email the PDF to yourself and use 'open in' in the Mail app on your iPad to copy it into the iBooks app.

    Further to my last post re uTube  for ipad i have just found information on Buzz Player HD  as an app to play videos  on my ipad.    Apparently it plays all downloaded  u Tube in any format?.
    If  you feel this is a good idea. Please explain what part vimeo u Tube app will  be the scheme of things.
    I apologise for silly questions - but I am not very technical and very confused about what some similar apps will do or not do and their overlap. What I need is an app that will do the necessary and delete the the unnecessary.

  • HT202879 Pages on Mac and Pages on IPad

    With up grade in pages last fall all my docs in Mac were lost......luckly they were in pages on Ipad where they remain. 
    Is there anyway to sync them back into Mac?

    Pages for iPad understands documents stored in iCloud, or locally on the iPad. If you use the former, both your iPad and Mac must be using the same Apple ID, and be signed into iCloud. Additionally, you will need to enable Documents & Data under iCloud on each device. This is in Settings > iCloud on IOS, and System Preferences > iCloud on OS X. Note on the latter, that there is an options category under Documents & Data. Check the Pages item in that sublist.
    In Pages on your Mac, from the open dialog, choose the iCloud tab, and the documents that display there can be option+drag/drop to copy to your Mac, or simply drag/drop to move to your Mac. Bear in mind that if these are Pages ’09, or IOS Pages v1.7.2 documents, that you probably want a backup of them before opening in any release of Pages v5, due to irretrievable conversion into the v5 document architecture.
    For documents local on your iPad, connect the device to iTunes with a USB cable. When your iPad appears under DEVICES in the left iTunes panel, select it. For the associated tabs for your iPad, click on Apps, and then scroll to the bottom where applications that can share documents is located. Pages will appear in this location, and any local files  on your iPad will too. You can simply drag them from the panel to where you want them on your Mac.

    Can your iPad be upgraded to iOS 7? If so, what are you doing that isn't working?
    See the chart below to determine whether you can upgrade your device and what you can upgrade to. If you do not have a Software Update option present on your iDevice, then you are trying to upgrade to iOS 5 or higher. You will have to connect your device to your computer and open iTunes in order to upgrade.
