Mavericks OS X 10.9 mirroring icon?

Why doesn't my iMac mirror to my AppleTV?  Main reason I upgraded to Mavericks.

Is your iMac from mid-2011 or later?

  • Please help: I want to mirror my MacBook pro with my HDTV.  I realize I need to switch on my Mirroring Icon BUT I cannot find the icon on my menu bar or in the Display section of my System preferences.  Is it possible to get the Icon on my screen somehow?

    I want to mirror my MacBook Pro's screen to my HDTV.  I had it at one time by clicking the Mirror Icon on my upper menu bar but I do not have it any more?
    What am I missing?  In the System Perferences the display menu seems incomplete.  There is no where in there to set my MacBook Pro to mirroring.
    Can someone please help me?
    I would apprecate any help I get.
    Thanks

    The mirroring selection is in the "Arrangement" tab and only shows up on the MacBook Pro LCD, not the external display.

  • Hi, I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro but cant get the mirroring function to work with Apple TV.  I've got the most recent Software 10.7.5 but cant see the mirroring icon or turn this on.  I'm able to mirror from my Ipad but not my Mac, any thoughts?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    AirPlay Mirroring is supported on your Mac, but it needs OS X Mountain Lion (10.8). See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404
    You have two possibilities:
    1. Make a backup, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion to upgrade to this OS X. Then, you will find the AirPlay Mirroring icon at the top right of the display, on the menu bar, or on System Preferences > Displays.
    2. Keep OS X Lion and use AirParrot > http://www.airparrot.com
    Both options work properly, but I recommend AirPlay Mirroring as it doesn't need a third-party program

  • My mirroring icon is no longer showing up on my iPad. Where did it go?

    Where did the mirroring icon go on my iPad? I can't find it.

    Is your airplay device connected to the same WIFI network as your ipad? I would restart the ipad and the device if they are. And, are you sure your accessing the icon by double tapping the home button and swiping to the right in the multi task bar?

  • Mirroring icon appearing and no external display connected

    Hi guys!
    Recently I bought an iPad and updated my mac to the latest version of OS X Yosemite. All from sudden, the mirroring icon appeared on the top bar of my mac. When I click it I can only open display preferences, which only shows my macbook. I can hide it by unchecking that box, but I don't think this should be the right solution.
    I have already restarted the computer and also tried clicking on Detect display option by holding the option key.
    Thank you!

    Today it started to work by it self.
    So for now the case is closed

  • Macbook Pro 2011 is not showing Mirror Icon on menu bar for ATV

    I just Downloaded Mountain Lion os x on my Macbook Pro 10.8.  The mirroring icon was on my menu bar but when I restarted my computer it was gone.  I went into System Preferences-displays and clicked "Show mirroring options" but it still isn't showing up.  ATV is up to date and is running on 5.0.2. 

    ->System Preferences->Network and check: Show WiFi Staus in menu bar
    Clicking [Assist me...] might help if you're having network issues

  • Help in finding the Airplay Mirroring Icon

    Can anybody help with finding the Airplay Mirror Icon on Ipad 2. I've double clicked the Home Button and moved the Icons to the right. I have the Music Player buttons/ volume etc. There is a button that that has a square in it with a triangle at the base of the square. When you press this is pulls up Ipad or Apple TV choice, this only however appears to refer to the music. The picture on the Ipad- on this case Safari, desnt show on Apple TV.
    Apple TV is switched on and the Ipad and Apple TV are both connected to the same network.
    I have been able to click the the Airplay Icon at the top of the Photos screen when looking at photos.

    Is your Mac up to date (10.8.2) ?
    Is your Apple TV up to date (5.2) ?

  • 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.

    Hi there,
    You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
    You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
    Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
    Nathan

  • I have a MacBook Pro 2012 running Mountain Lion 10.7.5 and the mirroring icon isn't showing up to stream to Apple TV

    I have a MacBook Pro 2012 running Mountain Lion 10.7.5.  I've been trying to get the mirroring icon to show up in the bar but no dice.  Any tips?  I've gone into System Preferences -> Display and there is no option to turn on mirroring.

    Welcome to the Apple Community maricespieces.
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). You can see which Mac you have and which operating system you are using by selecting 'About this Mac' from the Apple menu in the top left corner of your Mac and selecting the 'More Info' button.
