Mavericks Display Mirroring not working

When using an external display (either through a physical HDMI or through Airplay to my Apple TV), I'm unable to Mirror the displays. I'm able to select the option and I see the displays flicker and mirror for a brief moment and then they reset back to their previous cofniguration.
This had been working fine previously, the last thing I had done was use my Macbook pro retina to Airplay onto an Apple TV as an extended display.

Have you looked at the previous discussions listed on the right side of this page under the heading "More Like This"?

Display mirroring not working with my TV once I installed Yosemite. Any help?

I just installed OSX Yosemite v 10.10.1 onto my 2012 MacBook Pro. I have been using the mini port to use an adapter so that I can display my screen onto my TV. Once I installed Yosemite, it is no longer working. Any suggestions? Is there a plug-in?
Thank you David

Every day I like Apple products less, may be Apple had secretly merged with the garbage maker the new name is Applesoft. I purchased this adaptor for my iphone 4 two weeks ago, it was working ok, except the occasional annoying message "this accessory is not optimized for this iphone", but this is an Apple product, W.T.F?
Yesterday, it suddenly completely stopped working, I am sure it's not because of my HD monitors and TV, because I tried on four different HD TVs, I updated to iOS 4.3.3, nothing seem to work. for a $40 dollars tiny cable it seems like a big rip off from Apple just like they did with the $39.00VGA cable(which you can get for $2.00 on eBay) except it would not pass the Apple's so called "optimized" rip-off I am going back to Apple today to see the so called "Genius" and demand they give my money back and give me a working cable, they have to compensate me for wasting my time!!

Installed Premiere Pro CS4 but video display does not work?

I just got my copy of CS$. After installing Premiere I found two things that seem very wrong:
1) video display does not work, not even the little playback viewer next to improted film clips located on the project / sequence window. Audio works fine.
2) the UI is way too slow for my big beefy system.
My pc is a dual boot Vista-32 and XP system with 4GB of memory installed and nvidia geforce 280 graphics board with plenty of GPU power. The CS4 is installed on the Vista-32 partition. My windows XP partition on the same PC with Premiere CS2 works great and real fast.
Any ideas how to solve this CS4 install issue?

I would like to thank Dan, Hunt, and Haram:
The problem is now very clear to me. The problem only shows up with video footage imported into PP CS4 encoded with "MS Video 1" codec. So this seems to be a bug. The codec is very clearly called out and supported within various menues but video with this codec just will not play in any monitor or preview window. In addition the entire product looks horrible with respect to performance while PP CS4 trys its best to play the video. Audio will start playing after about 30 seconds. And once in awhile part of video shows up at the wrong magnification before blanking out again.
My suggestion to the Adobe team: fix the bug and add some sample footage to the next release so new installations can test their systems with known footage.

Mac Mini + A1038 Cinema Display does not work

Hi,
I have a 2009 model Mac Mini with mini-dvi and mini-display port's on the rear. I can connect any of my DVI based monitors to the mac mini using either the mini-dvi to dvi cable or the mini-displayport to dvi cable. All monitors except for the A1038 model Apple Cinema Display.
The cinema display works with 3 other computers with DVI ports, turns right on and is detected right away. When plugged into the mini it does nothing. Sometimes I can get it to work with the mini-dvi to dvi adapter but that is sporadic.
This is the same behavior with a 2009 model mac book pro and macbook. Using the mini-displayport to dvi cable the cinema display does not work but 3 other monitors do.
So my question is, why does apple hardware only work with non-apple hardware?

Is the A1038 the old, plastic Cinema Display that doesn't have a power cord or power supply? It only has a video cable with the special ADC on it? If that's the case, it needs this to run from a newer Mac:

The wish list only works on apps you have to pay for. To get it tap the icon of the app you want to save. After it opens at the upper right corner is a box with a arrow. Tap that then tap add to wish list list in the box that opens.

My thunderbolt display is not working with my MBP retina 13''

Hi,
     I just received both a new macbook pro retina 13'' and a thunderbolt display. Everything was working properly yesterday but today, I have no clue why, the thunderbolt display is not working anymore.
     . the power supplier for my laptop given by the thunderbolt display is still working;
     . when I don't connect my laptop through the thunderbolt connection, I can use the usb sockets as power supplier , for my phone, for instance;
     . as soon as I plug the thunderbolt cable, the usb socket is not feeding any more my phone, whereas the screen is not displaying anything.
     . If I take a look in the system report, in the thunderbolt tab, there is "no device connected"...
I restarted plenty of time my laptop, took care to reinitialise the SMC as well as the PRAM, and nothing changed. I also disconnected the thunderbolt display, waited few minutes (and more), but nothing changed, again the black screen.
Has somebody an idea?
Thanks

which model air do you have?
try both a pram and smc reset
plug the monitor into a different electrical outlet and a different port on your Mac (if you have multiple tb ports)

Take it to an Apple Store and see about getting an out of warranty replacement. I believe it will run you about $150.

AirPlay mirroring not working but AirPlay is?

AirPlay mirroring not working but AirPlay is?

I'm in the same boat. Apple TV & iPad absolutely, positively up to date. Airplay working. When you swipe left to right, airplay icon is in fact present. However, the only options are:
I've root boot iPad, Apple TV, Airport extreme, computer same network (should have no bearing but why not) with no results. Only options for Airplay are iPad & Apple TV. HELP.

Target Display Mode not working iMac 27(2012) Bootcamp to iMac 27(2013)

Hi All,
I recently purchased an iMac 27" 2013 which replaced my iMac 27" 2010.
===============
PREVIOUS SETUP
===============
(1) iMac 27" 2012 - Running Windows 8.1
(2) iMac 27" 2010 - Running OS X Mavericks
(1)+(2) were connected with a Mini-Display-Port cable.
(1) was using (2) as external display while (2) was set to Target Display Mode using CMD+F2
==============
CURRENT SETUP
==============
(1) iMac 27" 2013 - Running Windows 8.1
(2) iMac 27" 2012 - Running OS X Mavericks
(1)+(2) are connected with Thunderbolt cable.
(1) can't use (2) as external display anymore becuase CMD+F2 has no effect anymore on (2) in this scenario.
If (1) and (2) are both running OS X all works as expected.
I am aware about the support hint from Apple where they state TDM is not working under Bootcamp.
And I agree, while booted into Windows Bootcamp this machine can't serve as external display. Makes sense because TDM is baked into OS X display drivers.
Anyone had the same experience and came to a soltuion?
Thanks,
Martin

"Apple has no plans to implement a client driver for Windows since there is no Thunderbolt SW stack available for Windows like there is for Display Port."
That is a little bit funny since Gigabyte and other big companies have said that 2014 is the year that they are going to implement Thunderbolt in many motherboards.
"GIGABYTE 7 series motherboards are the very first to offer fully certified dual onboard Thunderbolt™ ports. Capable of connecting up to 12 devices plus 3 digital displays simultaneously with breathtaking data transfer speeds that can transfer 1TB of data in only five minutes, GIGABYTE Thunderbolt™ motherboards offer the fastest connection interface on the desktop PC."
Have you asked Apple about that? I dont understand why Apple is crippling Thunderbolt on their devices...

Mavericks Scheduled Shutdown not working

Since upgrading to Mavericks 10.9.2 , about 2 weeks ago, (from Snow Leopard 10.6.8) unable to get Energy Saver / "Scheduled Shutdown" working.
Scheduled Startup works without any problems, everyday at selected time, my iMac boots up; but when I have a time set for "shutdown" it just goes to sleep. Never had this problem with Snow Leopard 10.6.8 - always worked on schedule everyday. Tried not selecting both Startup and Shutdown, and doing it manually; but whenever I go back to set the Startup and Shutdown, it never works in Shutdown. Any help on how to solve this, would be appreciated.
Running iMac 21" 16GB RAM, Ma

I think I spoke too soon, about Scheduled Shutdown working OK. It does not work when Mac is in "Sleep Mode"...I tried it again this morning, set a schedule time for shutdown, 10 minutes out from present time.
Did not allow screen or computer to go into sleep mode, and guess what ? Up pops the scheduled shutdown screen, saying this computer will shut down in 10 minutes. OK that worked. I then changed the shutdown schedule again, for a later time, now I allowed the Display and Computer to go into Sleep mode, per settings I have in System Preferences/Energy Saver -> "Display Sleeps in 10 Minutes - Computer sleep in 15 minutes. I returned 40 minutes later, -- Computer and Display are in Sleep mode, return key to bring screen back up,---- and Scheduled Shutdown was not activated. Have no background programs running that causing errors in Console. Therefore there is a software flaw somewhere, that will not allow "Schedule Sutdown" to activate when computer is in sleep mode. Any suggestions on how to correct this would be appreciated.

Keyboard shortcut for display is not working

I have an external keyboard because my internal one is damaged, When I set up the keyboard shortcut settings when I first got the keyboard I made sure the display short cuts are set, it worked, though when I changed the short cut values to be something else because it conflicted with a program I am using it stopped working, When I set the shortcut keys back to what I first put them when I got the external keyboard it still did not work.
I use Macbook air 13-inch, Mid 2011, Software OS X 10.9.4
My mac is up to date on this posts time.

Sorry, I don't have an answer, and I am not a Mac user so not familiar with their problems, but ISTR another Mac use posting with the same issue recently. Are you using Mavericks? There are apparently a number of bug issues that the PS team has made Apple aware of.
But in case that is not the issue here, is this with the Background layer? Shift F5 works OK for me on a BG layer, but you might find the Del key works better for you.
Not strictly related, but for other CC users reading this thread, Trevor Morris has released a CC version of his famous Photoshop Keyboard Shortcuts PDF, as well as an Extension that applies a number of custom shortcuts. I didn't think there were any going spare! I am also a big fan of the Michael Ninnis Power Shortcuts video from last year's Adobe Max, and there are bound to be conflicts

17" LCD Cinema Display does not work on G4 Tower with ATI 9000

Hi,
I have a G4 Tower with the original AGP ATI Radeon 9000B video card. My friend gave me this unit just recently but not the original monitor. Well after he got his new 30" Cinema Display he gave me the original 17"LCD Cinema Display. I was so happy, plugged it into the card and fired up the CPU but nothing! just blank! It is not getting any power for the USB ports or anything. My buddy says the monitor was checked before I picked it up. I yanked the Video card out and put it back in, inside the CPU was clean as was the card, put it back together and still nothing. The VGA monitor I have is connected via adapter to the other input and works fine. I tried doing display settings and the Cinema is not even detected. Is the Video card fried on the digital side?
Do I need a new one?
Here is the info on the CPU:
Machine Model: Power Mac G4 (AGP graphics)
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (2.9)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 400 MHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 1 MB
Memory: 1.5 GB
Bus Speed: 100 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 4.2.8f1
Serial Number: XB0120xxxxx
Any help wold be appreciated.

Hi MFG,
Welcome to the discussions.
The G4 AGP Graphics model originally shipped with an ATY Rage 128 graphics card. The ATI Radeon 9000 graphics card that is installed in your G4 is not the original card.
The ATI Radeon 9000 comes with a native ADC port (which you are trying to use). This port is only fully functional if the computer is ADC enabled. Your model of G4 is, unfortunately, not ADC enabled.
You can confirm this by opening the computer and having a look at the AGP slot (where the graphics card is installed). In ADC enabled Macs, there is an extra slot at one end of the AGP slot to accomodate an "extra leg" that the ADC graphics cards (such as the ATI 9000) have. This extra leg supplies the power and USB feed. You'll probably find this extra leg with no slot for it to go into.
What this means is that you are not getting power and USB feed through the ADC port to your display.
If you want to get the 17" ADC Apple LCD display working off this card (it's definitely the LCD display and not the CRT display, please confirm), you will need to use a DVI to ADC adaptor such as this one:
http://www.drbott.com/prod/db.lasso?code=0111-DVAD
and run it off the DVI output.
You can run your VGA screen at the same time (if you want to) off the ADC output by using this adaptor:
http://www.drbott.com/prod/db.lasso?code=0117-ADCV
This will work off the ADC port because, although the ADC port is not getting USB or power feed, it's still getting the DVI feed (which is what this adaptor needs).
Cheers!
Karl

GS70 miniDP/mini Display Port not working

Hi forum,
I recently got a GS70 with 860m graphics that runs win8.1. I can use the HDMI interface with no problems with various monitors. The displays are detected both by the intel software as well as the "change screen resolution" config of windows.
When I plug a monitor into the miniDP ports however the displays are not detected by the system. I tried this with a 27" Samsung as well as a 30" Dell U3011. I used a miniDP2HDMI cable, a miniDP2DP cable and an active miniDP2DVI adapter, none of them works. I am using the latest Nvidia drivers, they have been updated online through the nvidia experience stuff.
I tried to troubleshoot this by using an Ubuntu live CD with the same results. HDMI works out of the box as soon as I plug a cable in. Nothing happens when I use the miniDP cable though.
I also noticed that one cable (miniDP2HDMI) I can put fully into the miniDP port while the other one(miniDp2DP) sticks out 3-4mm and does not seem to go into further even with force. They look alike and the packaging clearly says "miniDP..." though.
How can I fix this?
Thanks.

have you tried to press fn + F2 button? some times some displays wont give signal untill you press that button and then laptop one will either go black or go off then on again and then external monitor will wake up and give picture so try it if you havent and then return back to us if it works or not.
