Mirroring won't work

I have a BRAND NEW MacBook with Retina display and an Apple TV2. The audio for AirPlay works but the new feature in Mountain Lion where I should be able to mirror my screen does not.
Both devices are on the same network. When I click the AirPlay icon on the top of my screen I get an option to "Open Display Preferences" When selected, "No Devices Detected" appears next to the AirPlay Mirrioring Option.
I can't figure it out.
Thanks

Is your Apple TV 2 running iOS 5.x? i.e. the one with all the colorful icons?

Mirroring is done over the local network so internet speed isn't relevant.
I would check istumbler.net to see if there is any interference

Mirroring won't work correctly

I have a 12 core mac pro using two displays; both are full hd 1080p and work perfectly with a mac mini mirroring in 1080p. However in the mac pro one display is in 1080p and the other in a blurry 1080i. If i change the second display to 1080p in system preferences the first display changes to the blurry 1080i.
What should I do?

What display card?
What cables and adapters from which ports to which ports on the displays?
Any additional displays is use that you did not mention?

AirPlay mirroring won't work on 4S

I can't get AirPlay to work with my 4S and Apple TV (Gen 2). Both devices are updated with the latest software. The airplay controls are supposed to be with the music controls but they're just not there. If you can offer any suggestions I'd appreciate it.

I'm getting an email notification on a message I can't find in this thread. Something weird going on with the forum software, I guess.
Anyway, I have not seen you comment about these things:
1) You said the Apple TV is updated. Is your phone using iOS 5?
2) Do you have the 4S?
Sorry if I missed it and you did answer those questions. Just making sure. Are you swiping to the right in the multitasking bar (arrived at by pressing the home button twice) until you can't swipe anymore?

Computer mirroring won't work on apple tv

I just purchased an apple tv 3rd generation to use with my macbook air. The apple tv won't recognize anything. Not Itunes, not the computer, not the ipday. The apple tv icon wont show up on anything. What am I doing wrong?

The computer I'm on is a macbook air I bought march of 2012, the ipad 4th generation (the newest one) last month at the istore. I have updated everything. I've done everything that the trouble shooting tells me to and I have yet to see that Icon pop in on anything. Not in the bottom left, on the tool bar or on any screen!! Everything is on the same network! So I'm giving up and taking it back to the store today for a refund.
Nothing should be this hard to connect to a television. Nothing!

I am trying to connect my macbook air through my led tv using hdmi but it won't work. I could not find arrangement option on my system preference. how do i make it appear again on my system preference so i can mirror it through my tv. thanks

Hi jenette,
If you are having issues using an HDTV via HDMI as an external display to your MacBook Air, you may find the following article helpful:
OS X: How to use multiple displays with your Mac in Mountain Lion and earlier
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5019
(Note: You will generally only see the arrangement option in Displays when you are configured to use the external display in Extended Desktop mode; there is no arrangement in Mirroring as both screens are showing the same image.)

I have the same mini display port adapter and Belkin DVI-HDMI cable (but a Panasonic 42" Plasma HDTV) so just set this up on it to see if I could duplicate your problem, unfortunately for you (but good for me) I can't.
I connected the adapter+HDMI cable before switching the HDTV on and then powered up the MBP. It (the HDTV) came up with my background right away (it's set at Mirror not extended Desktop) and when I run System Preferences/Displays get the following. Sorry but all I can confirm is that adapter+cable combination should work ...
Try doing a Parameter RAM reset - hold down command/option/p/r keys at start up and wait for three chimes before releasing the keys?

Reboot your router. The icon only shows when connected to wifi and Apple TV or similar device. Same thing happened with my phone and the icon appeared in control center after router reboot.

2nd Monitor won't work

I bought a Pavillion p6210f last week with Win7 loaded to replace my Dell/Vista. I was using two monitors with a VGA port and DVI port on the old PC, so I tried plugging in the same on my new HP and the DVI would not fit. In examining the pins I found that, althought the Manual said DVI, but the plug has the pin/bar arrangement of a DVI-D. So, I bought a VGAto DVI-D adapter and everything plugged in snuggly. All pins and bar appear a match.
But, it won't work. This is what is showing
NVIDIA nForce Serial ATA Controller HP RC Mirror Driver [Display adapter]
NVIDIA GeForce 9100 [Display adapter]
Acer P241W [Monitor] (24.0"vis, s/n LB4040014320, March 2008)the one working monitor....
After hours with the 800 support and hours of reversing the two Acer monitors, the DVI-D port is simply dead. Anything plugged in to the VGA works fine, anything and any combination plugged into the DVI-D and cable switching etc. the 2nd monitor is not even recoginized. The NVIDIA control panel doesn't recognize it. The amber power light just stays that way and nothing ever flashes on the 2nd screen. That is, it is the same as not plugging in at all.
I was less than pleased when 800 tech and supervisor suggested I take it to a repair center. A week old? I have put way too much setup and data transfer into the new HP to go back to the retailer for a replacement.
Techs didn't know, but could there be a DVI-X with the same pins that also fits

Eldric, did you update to the latest video driver from nVidia? It sounds to me like a driver problem. Update and let us know if that solves your problem.

I have recently updated my Apple TV (gen 2) and now Airplay video won't work. I can hear the audio, but no video. I have unplugged, replugged, restarted. Help! This problem is all post-upgrade.

First time using this site; not sure if I'm doing it right.
My apple tv which has always worked beautifully is not picking up airplay from my ipad. It is picking up the audio, and it will certainly do that "mirroring" thing where you watch a grainy computer screen on your tv, but it won't work the way it used to. Any help? I have plugged and unplugged, reset and restarted everthing to no avail. Icons are available, I see the apple tv option on all devices but it just won't do it's thing. Help!
Thanks, everyone, in advance.

Hi, sitzmark128.
Sometimes a simple power cycle of your your wireless network can resolve some AirPlay issues. I would also recommend closing any open applications in multitasking and restarting the device. If unfamiliar with multitasking, I have included a screenshot on how to process an application close.
If the issue persists after processing these steps, see the article below.

Fn F7 keys won't work in BootCamp on MBP

I'm trying to use a projector with my MBP to teach CAD in BootCamp. The problem is that I can't mirror my screen when using bootcamp, like I can in OS X. I can get an extension of my screen, but can't display the contents of my screen on the projector.
Normally you would use the fn F7 keys to toggle through the display options, but in Windows XP the fn F7 won't work.
Does anyone have any ideas? A remapping program for MBP? Please Help.

Have you tried the windows way (right click on desktop > properties > settings and uncheck Extend my Windows desktop... ?
Hope this helps...

X200 External Monitor -- In High Resolution, Tablet Pen Won't Work

I have an X200 Tablet running Windows 7 and need everything I write on the tablet with the digital pen to be simultaneously visible on an external monitor. The problem is that when using both monitors simultaneously, the X200 will only display on the external monitor at the X200's maximum resolution (1280x800) even though the external monitor can go to a higher resolution (1680x1050).
I've tried the Ultramon app, which allows the Tablet and external monitor to both be at their max resolution (which is my goal) but then the digital pen won't work on the Tablet.
Any thoughts on a solution?

• Went to Best Buy
• Paid for a DYNEX Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter ($25)
• Came home and plugged in the adapter then the HDMI to DVI cable to the monitor. (Note: Monitor is a LG Flatron L22WTG) - DID NOT WORK
• iMac knows monitor is plugged in and I can change the resolution on both monitors and mirror. (Note: Changed to every resolutions with/without mirror image.) - DID NOT WORK
• Restarted computer - DID NOT WORK
• Turned off/on LG monitor many times - DID NOT WORK
• Unplugged/plugged back in many different ways - DID NOT WORK
• Changed the HDMI to DVI cable with a better cable - DID NOT WORK
• Installed BootCamp with Windows 7 - *BOTH WORK 100%*
• Rebooted to OS X 10.6.7 (Snow Leopard) - DID NOT WORK
• Installed Windows XP - *BOTH WORKED 100%*
• Reinstalled OS X 10.6.4 (Snow Leopard) - *BOTH WORKED 100%*
• Updated OS X from 10.6.4 to 10.6.7 - DID NOT WORK
Seems to be a driver problem with the new update (10.6.7). I will not update again till drivers are fixed.

Any ideas? Have tried usual switching on and off again but no change

Here’s what you need to do to turn on AirPlay Mirroring on your iPad 2:
– Have iOS 5 installed on your iPad 2
– Make sure your Apple TV software is up-to-date. You can check for updates on the Apple TV by going to Settings > General > Update Software.
– Have your TV turned with Apple TV active and showing.
– Double-tap the home button on the iPad to bring up the Multitasking Bar.
– Swipe to move to the left of the Multitasking Bar, so you can see the set of controls just to the left of the volume adjustment slider.
– The button just to the right of the Fast Forward button – the one that has a rectangle with a solid, upward-facing arrow in it – is the AirPlay button. Tap to switch from iPad to Apple TV.
– Once you do that you’ll see the Mirroring section appear just below the entry for Apple TV. Just tap to turn that On, and the iPad 2 will immediately begin mirroring to your TV screen.

HP LaserJet Pro C1415fn color MFP - fax won't work

I have a LaserJet Pro CM1415fn color MFP on a Windows 7 64-bit laptop. I've been using the printer for two years now.
At the moment the fax function only works if I use it manually (i.e. if I place a sheet of paper on the scanner, select the "Fax" button on the printer touch pad and dial the number). However, if I want to send a fax via the PC interface, it won't work.
For example, if I open a PDF, click on "Print" and select "HP LaserJet Professional CM 1410 Series Fax", nothing happens -- no window/interface will open. If I select "HP Send Fax" or "HP Fax Setup Wizard" from the program menu, nothing happens.
I've always been sending faxes this way and I just don't know what happened... Can anyone please help?
Thanks in advance!

Hi @Clabee ,
I see that you can't fax from the PC anymore. I can help you with this.
If this just recently happened, I would do a System Restore back to when everything was working properly.
System Restore for Windows 7.
If you would prefer not to do the System Restore, uninstall and reinstall the printer software. It might become corrupted.
Here are the steps to run the uninstall from the computer or the CD.
To uninstall from program files:
Touch the Windows key and the E key to access the computer window.
Select the C drive.
Select program files or program files x86.
Open the HP and printer name folder.
Select uninstall.
Uninstall the software from the CD:
Touch the Windows key and the E key to access the computer window. Right click on the CD for the printer, left click open in a new window, double click on uninstall.
Disable all the start up programs and temporarily turn off the Antivirus Software. How to use MSCONFIG .
Click on the start up tab and click disable all.
Download, save and install the latest drivers.
HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fnw Color Multifunction Printer Drivers.
Test the printer and try sending a fax again from the PC.
Then you will need to go back in and enable the start up programs and turn the Antivirus Software back on again.
If you need further assistance, just let me know.
Have a wonderful day!
Thank You.

I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there. I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working. Please help.

I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version. I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again. I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again. My blue tooth doesn't work either. I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this. When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue. My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!! I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue. Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it. Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.
