My airplay mirroring won't work with my macbook air, eventhoug my internet connection is very fast. The image will appear after 5 seconds.

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

I have a wired keyboard which won't work with my MacBook Air unless I use the extension cable supplied with the apple keyboard. Is this normal or have I got a connection problem?

I Have an apple wired keyboard which suddenly won't work unless I use the apple ext cable supplied with the keyboard...used with the wire fixed into the keyboard it just won't respond. Do u think the keyboard is faulty. ? I want to use it with my MacBook Air and a big screen.

My best guess is that either there's a small deformation of the USB plug of your keyboard or some foreign matter (like lint) inside the keyboard plug. When I was setting up my new lab last year I had to use the extension cables and I found that the female end of the extension cable was considerably tighter than the computer's USB port. If an Apple store is nearby it would be worth taking the computer, keyboard, and extension just for piece of mind.

External dvd drive won't work on USB macBook air

External dvd drive won't work on my macBook air usb port. It works on older versions of air and iMac.
Any ideas. Tried the left shift, control, option and power button sumultaniously, but did not work.

I know that no one has replied yet, but figured out the issue. I called Applecare and they couldn't figure it out, so sent me to a genuis at the Apple store. They too couldn't figure it out and told me that it was a firmware issue with the Toshiba dvd external drive. When I got home, I thought I would try one more thing. I hooked it up to a powered hub and it works perfectly. I'm not sure why no one else thought of it, but glad that I did.

Sorry, but your issue has nothing to do with Apple networking. You may get better results getting a solution if you repost to the iCloud area of the Apple Support Communities.

As you quote the price in 'Pounds' I'm assuming you are in the UK!
You might want to consider one of these from Amazon. I have one on my MBA and it works well.

Hard to say without knowing the model. You can go to About This Mac - more info to verify. It needs to be mid 2011 or later.

Does the Apple Snow Leopard install USB work with any macbook air?

Hi guys and girls,
Im changing the hard drive in my MBA 2008 A1237 from the 80GB HDD to the 64GB SSD. Ive seen a Snow Leopard install usb on ebay for £15 so ive brought it.... but I was wondering if it would actuly work with my particular Air?
As my perivouse exspriance tells me that some install DVDs are tied to cirent products such as my iMac install dvd wont work on my Macbook..
Thanks
Firky

The OS X Lion Thumb Drive isn't being sold by Apple, so you need Snow Leopard. Buy Snow Leopard from Apple and use the USB SuperDrive to do it. Then, open Apple menu > Software Update and install the most recent version. If you don't want to spend more money, stay in Snow Leopard, but if you want Lion, call Apple to purchase Lion > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

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?

Airplay Mirroring still not working with OSX 10.9.3

I upgraded yesterday, but the mirroring is still NOT working.
I hear the sound, but don´t see the image.
The option "DELL 2001FP spiegeln" is not selectable.
What am I to do?

I've branched this to it's own thread, since the issue you're experiencing is unrelated to the one you replied to, and it would be confusing to try and handle them in the same thread.
Please provide as many of the follow details as possible, so I can attempt to reproduce the issue you're describing (I realize you've provided some of it):

So ML's new airplay functionality won't work on a Macbook Pro 2010?

Was there anything in the advertisements for the new Airplay functionality via ML that it wouldn't apply to any machines prior to 2011?
Am I just missing something about how to enable it, or is my MacBook Pro 2010 really unable to make use of the mirroring functionality?
I have this sinking feeling that I've been hosed

to say the least, DIS-appointing.
Apple's done a better job in the past of identifying which machines would work with software upgrades. I suppose I missed the fine print, but since this kind of functionality would be highly coveted, it would've served Apple to make more prominent in their descriptions this issue.

Safari won't work and Software Update doesn't recognise internet connection

I'm using Safari Version 4.0.3 (4531.9) and it won't browse to any website. I initially thought it was a problem with Airport so I unplugged and restarted my Airport device but Safari still wouldn't work. Then I noticed that I was still getting email and when I tried Firefox it worked fine. So I thought perhaps I needed a software update for Safari but when I tried to run Software Update it said it couldn't connect to the server and to check my internet connection. I clicked on the Network Diagnostics link which came back saying that my internet connection was fine. I then Googled a bit using Firefox and saw some posts which suggested move the .plist files out of the Library/Preferences folder. I've moved the com.apple.Safari.plist and com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist for all users. But it still hasn't helped. What should I try now?

Hello Michael, and a warm welcome to the forums!

Great clue FF uses different DNS & Proxies than Safari that uses Sys Prefs...
Try putting these numbers in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers for the Interface you're using...
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Then Apply. These are safer/faster than most ISP's DNS numbers, and have been patched against DNS poisoning.

Open System Preferences>Network>Configure>Proxies Tab, make sure none are set, like for HTTP & HTTPS.

How do I make my old printer work with my MacBook Air?

I have a new MacBook Air and I can not seem to get my old HP Officejet T65 printer to work with it. It worked perfectly with my old PC but although my mac recognises the printer it does not show all of the printer options and is only printing in black and white. It is also saying that the printer is "offline" or that the printer USB is not connected when it is. I know I should probably just get a new printer but would like to use my old one in the meantime. The HP online help I could find only offered printer updates or help for windows. Any suggestions on how to make it work with my mac?

It may not make you feel any better but you would likely have the same or worse problem with a newer Windows PC computer and that printer. HP hasn't offered Windows drivers for it since Windows XP days (i.e., no support for Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8).

Does the Apple USB Ethernet Adapter work with a MacBook Air that's been updated to Lion?

I saw a comment at the online Apple store that the USB Ethernet Adapter didn't work with Lion. Anyone else have experience with the adapter?

Just point the tech rep to the apple website that lists the Ethernet to USB system requirements as:
"Overview
The Apple USB Ethernet Adapter is a simple, one-piece external adapter that plugs into the USB 2.0 port of your MacBook Air to provide 10/100BASE-T performance. Simply plug your Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 connector — no external power is required. It’s small, light, easy to install, and even easier to use.
Technical Details
     USB 2.0 with bus power

What's in the Box

Samsung SyncMaster P2770HD doesn't want to work with new MacBook Air

I have a (pre-unibody) MacBook Pro and a Samsung SyncMaster P2770HD. I just picked up a MacBook Air with a MiniDisplay Port to DVI adapter. The monitor works fine with my older Pro but when I connect using the adapter to my Air, the monitor doesn't work. The monitor momentarily lights up and complains that it's not receiving a signal.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Dan

Hello there - did you end up ever solving this one?
I have a 13" MacBook Air (2011), using a mini display port to HDMI with a P2770HD, and I just cannot get the air to detect the display, or vice versa.
