Safari wont play to my apple tv, safari wont play to my apple tv

My ipad, iphone play to apple tv from safari.  But it will not play off my macbook pro.  My macbook pro itunes and other media will play.  Just not any videos from safari.

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). It also requires the computer to be using wi-fi.

  • Safari wont play YouTube Videos.

    They wont load or play, so I have to use Chrome or Firefox. Any ideas? I have noticed this the past few weeks, what gives? I checked all my software, everything is up to date..

    The Flash plug-in failure on Lion, is a Safari issue that can be fixed with these steps:
    My Flash Player plug-in would not play videos on YouTube (using Safari in Lion). It turned out that my Safari settings needed to be reset after the recent Lion 10.7.4 and Flash upgrades.  I called Apple tech...
    This is what we did to fix it:
    1. Open Safari.
    2. Go to top left menu, under "Safari" click on "Reset Safari."
    3. UNCHECK the first two boxes, leave the next three checked, plus UNCHECK the next two, and keep the last three checked.
    4. Hit "Reset"
    5. After the reset finishes, Safari will relaunch and you can test Flash by going to YouTube to see that videos will now play.
    Thanks Apple Care!

  • Safari will no longer play apple tutorials on the web

    I've only had my mac for a couple of days and somehow safari will no longer play apple tutorials. If I click on one, it just loads and loads but never plays. Firefox doesn't work either. Somehow this feels quicktime related. My system is brand new. I have a quicktime plugin that has a version 7.6.3. Any help would be appreciated (youtube works fine).

    Glad it's working for you. As for the PC to Mac basics... I just tried and it's working. Try again.
    Try here also. Apple Pro Tips There are well over 100 videos there to watch.
    Empty your cache more often!
    And, launch iTunes. Select ITunes Store on the left side of the window then in the Search field top right type in: Apple Quick Tips
    You can not only watch those but download them as well.
    Trashing .plist application files is a great trouble shooting idea! I clean forgot.

  • Since upgrading to Lion, I cannot play QuickTime videos in Safari 5.1.1, not even on Apple's own website?

    Upgraded to Lion and now I cannot watch QuickTime videos in Safari 5.1.  Did not have this problem in Snow Leopard.  QuickTime videos do play in Firefox.  I cannot even play QuickTime videos on Apple's own website.  Any suggestions?  I'm using a Macbook Core 2 Duo.

    Hi Sami,
    I have partially solved my problem.  I had software installed for a Twelve South BassJump (it improves the sound of your laptop speakers).  When I removed that software, I was able to play videos on Apple's website in Safari.  The company has beta software available from their website that is supposed to be Lion compatible but when I installed that the problem returned.  But even with that software removed I still cannot watch videos on some sites such as Other World Computing.
    I just got a new Macbook Pro yesterday with Lion installed from Apple and all video plays fine.  So I believe there must be some compatibilty issues with some plug-in.  I have Perian and Flip4Mac installed.  I removed 3ivx and the problem still remains.  I've read conflicting opinions as to Perian being Lion compatible.
    Everything works fine in Firefox at this point so at least I have that to fall back on.
    Check your system preference pane under "other" and tell me if you have any of the plug-ins I mentioned installed.  Maybe we will be able to see a common culprit.
    Let's keep each other posted.
    Thanks,
    Chris in Ohio (USA)

  • Is it Ok that newly purchased iMac gets Hot not just Warm, and smells sometimes like burnt plastic?? Just by using safari for mails And playing Radio??? Or i must throw it!! since Can't get any Direct contact to Apple!!!

    IS IT OK that a newly purchased  iMac -intel Lion- gets So HOT That it smells like Burnt Plastic,Not Warm but  Hot!!??.. Just only by using safari-reading mails or newspapers- And playing Radio with VLC??!!!!...Or i must throw it away before it explodes??!!...Since Not possible to contact direct Apple to replace it !!!!..-they send me automatically from one adress to the other And No reply!!.THANKS!!

    I don't know where you live or what you're talking about being sent from one address to another.  Your iMac has a 90 day warranty with tech support and service, if needed.  Apple has toll-free phone numbers in the US.  You call that number, get to speak to a tech, give that person your computer's serial number and describe the problem.  I suspect that there are similar arrangements in other parts of the world.  That is "direct contact" with Apple.  Have you tried to do that where you live?  Wny are you trying to communicate in writing (by e-mail?)?  In addition, if you don't have Apple Care you should immediately purchase it if you're still eligible.  It'll extend your warranty to 3 full years.

  • HT4437 Would I be able to use Air Play, Apple TV, and an iPad running iOS7 in order to mirror an iPad running the Safari web browser onto an HDTV?

    Would I be able to use Air Play, Apple TV, and an iPad running iOS7 in order to mirror an iPad running the Safari web browser onto an HDTV?

    Yes.
    Basic AirPlay: Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
    Mirroring: When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), swipe from the bottom of the screen, tap the AirPlay icon and choose your Apple TV from the list of devices (iOS 7 or better) or double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices (pre-iOS7)

  • Could you play a live stream from safari to apple tv without going through itunes?

    could you play a live stream from safari to apple tv without going through itunes?

    There is no way to stream Safari content, with or without iTunes, to your AppleTV.
    The only way would be to use a mirroring feature given that you have an AppleTV 2nd gen or newer and a 2011 or newer MBP running mountain lion.
    If not, some third party software like AirParrot can also gives you way to mirror your MBP display on the TV.

  • How to I play safari videos on TV through apple TV?

    I have an iPad2 with the latest version of iOS. I have an apple TV updated to the latest version. How do I get my TV to be a screen for my iPad? In particular, can I display any safari accessed video on my TV?

    Ideally you'd play it using AirPlay if it's an option, but not all websites are video enabled. Alternatively use mirroring, double tap the home button, swipe the bottom panel to the left, tap the AirPlay icon and turn mirroring on.

  • Why doesn't apple tv appear when playing video in safari?

    Hi Guys:
         I just bought an apple tv. I am able to use the mirroring function with no problem, and I can see the apple tv in the "Airplay" menu.
         But When i play a video in safari(mirroring turned off), I can not see my apple TV in the "AirPlay" menu.
          So my question is : why doesn't apple tv appear when playing video in safari?
    Does the same thing happen to you guys??
    btw, I just dont want to mirroring when play a video in safari, that's why i'm asking this question
    Any help is appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Experiencing the same issue.  Everything used to just work.  I'm up to date on *everything* and it's all apple devices (airport extreme, appletv, 2 macbook pro lion, iphone4s, ipad). 
    My gut says it's the AppleTV since it happens from both laptops that have itunes.
    Let me know if you find a fix.

  • Tutorials on the Apple Website play in Safari and Chrome, but not always in Firefox. Java and Flash plug ins are up to date.

    I was trying to play the Time Machine video tutorial on the Apple Website (I have an imac 10.6.6) and it won't play in Firefox, but it will in Safari and Chrome. This has happened before but then seemed to fix itself. Other videos (Youtube for eg.) play fine. All plugs (Java and Flash) are up to date. Just wondering why this could happen.

    I have had this problem for a few days, no sound in Firefox, but IE and WMP (offline) have sound, this is a Firefox ONLY problem, so the volumes are all set correctly and the drivers and needed files are there, I've tried every fix that people have suggested on Google like checking the flash player settings, creating the "missing.reg" registry file and importing it, etc...
    nothing works, I may just have to switch to Safari or Chrome, I watch a lot of video online (Youtube, ESPN3, NFL.com, etc.) so this is a huge problem...

  • Quicktime won't play on Safari on Apple Troubleshoot page. Firefox OK.

    When I go here on Safari:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/troubleshooting/
    I do not get a Quicktime Logo. When I go there on FIrefox, I get the logo. I can play the Apple trailers on Safari. I have a problem with some streaming (RTSP) sites elsewhere (on safari not firefox).
    I am on 10.6.2 with ALL updates. Safari is 4.0.4 (6531.21.10). Firefox is 3.5.8. I am on a MacPro4,1.
    SL won't let me install QT7.
    Any ideas on how to debug this?

    I reinstalled QT7 from the install disk and rebooted but the problem still occurs.
    Above response was to get QT 7 to install -- not to fix QT RTSP which, in my opinion is non-functional at this time under Snow Leopard. Basically, the "logo" you see on the "Troubleshooting" test page is just the animated "buffering" logo. If you want to see what the real spiraling "animated logo" looks like, then view the same test page under Tiger or Leopard OS.
    About the only other thing you can currently do is reset the RTSP "transport" settings but this did not fix things on my system:
    If you're using QuickTime X on Mac OS X Snow Leopard:
    1. Quit QuickTime Player if it's running. Open the Terminal application which is located in the Utilities folder.  
    2. Cut and paste the following command into the command prompt and press the Return key: 
qtdefaults reset TransportSettings
    3. You should see the following message displayed in the Terminal window:
"Quicktime has been configured to automatically determine the best protocol and port for streaming."
    4. Quit the Terminal application.

  • Can I play YouTube Video from Safari to Apple TV?

    Hi, I can play YouTube to my Apple TV from iPhone and iPad, but not Safari on my Mac? What Gives?

    If your machine is 2011 or later, running 10.8 or later, and is connected to the same network as your Apple TV, you can use the Airplay feature to mirror the machine's display:
    Note that Apple TV also has a built in youtube application found on it's main menu.
