Your Mac needs to be:
iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)
Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer)
It needs OS X Mountain Lion or Mavericks.
If you don't meet the specs try AirParrot software.

  • Streaming from my mac to apple tv

    I have home sharing turned on but can't stream from my mac to my apple tv

    Are you trying to stream music or video? Streaming video from Mac to AppleTV (called Airplay Mirroring) is only supported on certain Macs. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5404
    If you are trying to stream audio, try the steps in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4215

  • Hello, I've just purchased apple tv, 3rd gen, and I'm streaming from my mac book pro to my tv, and it keeps skipping slightly, i have reasonably good internet speed, approx 7-8 Gb.

    hi, my apple tv i have purchased which is 3rd gen, is skipping when i stream to my tv, I'm using the latest software on my mac book pro, which is approx 2 years old, my router is only a few months old, but i am using power line adapters, but i have no problem downloading or watching internet telly 4OD/YOUTUBE etc.
    is their anything i can do as i have only  bought the apple tv for mainly streaming from my mac.
    thanks

    If you are streaming from your Mac then your internet speed would be irrelevant. This is done over the local network, and that is where the issue lies.
    Reboot ATV and router
    Make sure router is up to date
    If Apple TV is connecting via wifi, connect with ethernet
    Go to istumbler.net to get a report of the network, look for signal strength and noise

    The only way to stream from a Mac to ATV is through iTunes.

  • How can I see My Photo Stream from two Macs associated with the same Apple ID?

    I have a MacBook Pro (my personal machine) and an iMac (our family computer).
    The iPhoto library housing all of our family photos lives on the iMac.
    The iPhoto library on my MacBook Pro is currently empty.
    I have an account on both machines.  I have associated the same Apple ID with both machines.
    When I launch iPhoto on my MacBook Pro and attempt to turn on photo sharing (so that I can see My Photo Stream, as well as other shared streams), iPhoto informs me that "iCloud Photos for xxx@xxx is being used with another library named 'iPhoto Library'."
    My iPhone, which is also affiliated with the same Apple ID, shows the streams just fine.
    What can I do to remedy this situation?  I'd like to be able to view my shared streams on my MacBook Pro, while leaving the actual massive photo library on the iMac.

    I found out about this issue when I created a new library with some photo's I wanted to sync to my iCloud account.  I found the following on the Fat Cat Software page and thought it might be helpful to others:
    Using Photo Stream with multiple libraries
    Starting in iPhoto 9.2, Apple introduced a new feature called Photo Stream, which lets you automatically transfer photos via their iCloud service between your iPhoto library and your other devices such as an iPhone, iPad, or another Mac. This feature works when you have multiple iPhoto libraries set up, but there are a couple things to be aware of.
    First, iPhoto will only allow Photo Stream to be active in one iPhoto library at any given time. If you've already enabled Photo Stream in one library, but then open a second library and enable Photo Stream there, this will cause Photo Stream to be turned off in the first library.
    Any photos downloaded by Photo Stream are actually stored in an entirely separate location from any of your iPhoto libraries. This means that, even if you do switch Photo Stream from one library to another, you will not need to go through redownloading all the photos you already have in Photo Stream back from the iCloud servers. So, switching Photo Stream from one library to another is a relatively inexpensive operation, so you can do it as often as needed without it being much of a hassle.

  • TS3989 how can I share a photo stream from my mac? there's no check box in system preferences to turn it on

    I've been having trouble to share my photo stream with other from my mac. Once I selecte the photos and click share>photo stream, nothing else happens. The option for "new photo stream" does not appear, neither the field where you type in the email addresses from people you whant to share it with. I all ready checked in iphoto'11> system Pref.> photo stream and there's no "shared photo strem" check box to turn on or off... I also checked in my mac system pref to be sure that my icloud is enabled and it is.
    If I select photos and then go to my tool bar and press share. the option of photo stream is not available.
    I also can't accept any shared photo stream from other and view it in my iphoto. I can only access it via web.
    I DO can use my photo stream correctly and share it via my iphone. and every picture that I take uploads into my mac and every photo I import from cameras into my iphoto also uploads fine into my Ph stream. THE PROBLEM IS THAT I CAN'T SHARE THEM FROM MY MAC.....
    Please can someone help me?

    You turn on Photo Stream in iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane:
    Check the box "Automatic Upload" to add every photo imported into the library to the Photo Stream.  Or leave it unchecked and manually add just selected photos to the stream by dragging them onto the Photo Stream heading in the left hand pane.

  • How do you stream from my mac to apple tv

    How do you stream from my MacBook Pro to my apple tv?  I want to watch a show that is on the internet.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404 If your computer is compatible with AirPlay Mirroring, you can use it to mirror the computer screen to your Apple TV.
    If your Mac isn't compatible with AirPlay Mirroring, you can use a third-party app, like AirParrot > http://www.airparrot.com

  • Internet required to stream from my mac or iPhone?

    For at least the next few days, I have no internet at home. Does this mean that I cannot stream video from my Mac or iPhone?

    Using airplay or home sharing to stream content stored on your device does not require an internet connection, it is done over the local network. The only exception would be iTunes purchases, as they need to ping the server every so often for authorization purposes.

  • Is synching necessary - just streaming from the Mac?

    I have a music library which exceeds 1TB and over 200GB of pictures, but my first generation ATV has definitely much less storage space. My question: Can I stream content directly from my Mac, or am I really forced to download the fraction of content that I want to use to the ATV? If I can stream directly from my Mac, how does this work? I didn't find any setting in iTunes or the ATV settings menu. Thanks!

    Like said,
    Absolutely, but streaming photos wirelessly might be slow. If you can Ethernet it, you'll be laughing. Gigabit Ethernet and you'll be in stitches.
    So just how do you get 1TB of music ? that's about half a million dollars worth of CD's.
    And 200GB of photos ? Even with all the high resolution photos I've taken all over the world, I've only got about 40GB. Too many for iPhoto, and streaming.

  • Streaming from a Mac mini

    Im thinking of buying a mac mini to stream music from itunes. We have 2 iphones and an ipad in the house. could different people be streaming to different rooms simultaneously from the same itunes source?
    Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes, but how well it would work depends on how good your network is, the average network should easily support a couple of devices.

  • HT1551 Can I simultaneously stream from my mac book pro to more then one Apple TV receiver, i.e. same pander in both living room and den or will I have to have two sessions?

    Is it possible to simultaneously streaming to multiple Apple TV devices, i.e. have the same music/movie projected to multiple devices, TV in Den and in Living room.  Understand two Apple TV devices are required but will my MAC pair with both devices and stream the same material simultaneously?  Let me know, Thanks, Eric

    Hey ekrebs66,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It is possible to play music from iTunes on multiple speakers, which can include AirPlay to multiple Apple TVs. At this time, the multiple speakers option is compatible with music playback only. For more information, see this article:
    iTunes 11 for Mac: Choose which speakers to use

  • How can I convert DVD- video into Apple's format so that it can be played and streamed from my Mac?

    How can I convert DVD- video into Apple's format so that I can play the content on my Mac and also stream it to my Apple TV? A few years ago, I transferred all of my home videos onto DVD but now would really like to put these onto my Mac and stream them through Apple TV to watch on the "big screen". Any advice would be most welcome!! Thanks

    MPEG Streamclip.
    Apple do not have their "own" format. You need to convert your DVDs to H.264 though.
