El Capitan Mac not mirrored with Apple TV 4

When I try to reflect my Mac my tv screen just goes black and nothing is displayed. Even in the menu bar on my Mac it says air play to 'Apple TV' but I get no display options like I should see if I like mirror, or use a desktop separated, any of these options. Is there something I need to enable / disable to get my Mac to mirror to the Apple TV 4?

Hey JBS - GUY,.

I understand that you do not get anything to display on your TV if you use AirPlay from your Mac to your Apple TV. In such a situation, you can be in extended desktop mode, rather than mirroring. You can switch as shown below.

Your screen in mirror or extend your desktop

You can also use AirPlay to mirror or extend everything on your Mac screen. The display must be connected and awake.

  1. Click the AirPlay icon in the menu bar, then click on your Apple TV under 'Connect To Display AirPlay.' The icon lights up blue when your Mac uses a display AirPlay.
  2. In the same menu of AirPlay, choose extended desktop or an option in mirroring "use AirPlay display to.»

Use AirPlay to view a video of your Mac on a HDTV

  • 10.11.2 OSX (El Capitan) will not synchronize with Apple Mail Hotmail

    Mac Book 2012, SSD 256, 8 GB Ram Just reloaded El Capitan 10,11,2 on SSD, naked

    SSDS are erased and reinstalled 10,11,2 to see if this would help... it didn't.

    Problem started with Yosemite and continues in El CapitanSystem I cannot add my hotmail for Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird account!

    Example of an error message:

    System is "Unable to verify the account name or password" only on accounts Hotmail/outlook! All my other 5 accounts are added without problem! 

    I tried shortening hotmail password and renewed by password Microsoft 5 times in the last 24 hours, with no result!

    Help, please.  I've deliberately not migrated by user settings of my recorded image of the SSD drive before the clear operation just so I would not import corruption.

    What is a corrupted installation of 10.11.2?  If something is poisoned in my keychain?  Is this a known problem in OSX 10,11,2?  I am at my wits end because I love Apple Mail structure and have used for the last 5 years; all my files are organised in it, I want TO use it; but the system simply does not permit a connection to hotmail.

    I had this same problem on my iMac since the installation of El Capitan.  Never had a problem before this date.  I finally got Hotmail to synchronize, changed the process except mail leaves and fresh to add a Hotmail account.  It took several attempts, so no idea why it worked finally.  Now it syncs automatically not when I run Mac mail, but I can choose manually sync by right click on my hotmail account in Mac mail and it syncs correctly most of the time.  If it's not I pulled out and restart Mac mail then sync again manually.  Not an indoor pleasure, but it works.  I have no problem using hotmail on my windows PC.  After manual synchronization, I sometimes get an error when you try to delete or move a mail electronic hotmail to another folder.  I just wait until the next time I quit mail and restart to try again.  Something is certainly wrong somewhere.  Same problem with Thunderbird, but will have to re-enter the password manually to synchronize, memory of password never works, so it is not limited to Mac Mail, but is a Mac related issue.

  • Impossible to mirror with apple TV (3gen) to iOS9

    It is found that after you update your IOS in iPad, iphone, and iPad they don't no more mirror with apple Tv, it's just showing the apple tv but only in the speaker and when I play something it's just sounds, but nothing else, I tried with pro (el capitan) macbooks and works, I try with ipad (IOS8) and works , but nothing with the IOS9 into the iPad and iPhone.

    I did the update in apple tv, but still doe does not make me an update to the apple TV for the last OS released, just the preview.

    So my problem is that I am apple dealer, and if the apple Tv does not work with the latest iOS in iPhones and iPads, I can't sell it until there is difficulty or interruption.

    I need an answer

    We are not resellers even as apple dealer I hope you have a better plug the hose to apple, then this because this is a user to help the user forum, but above all, I would say private civilians

    but I can tell you that my iPhone 6s and ipad2 with latest versions of ios is perfectly capable of mirror airplay to my appletv 4g

  • El Capitan calendar not syncing with Google calendar

    Good afternoon

    I tried to sync my iCal with google calendar, and I saw that I must add the google account in system preferences. The problem is that when I try to do, ask my mac for the account details, then I choose what I want to use with this account. When I press the computer blocks and not household to add this account.

    It happened right after the update to El Capitan, because before it used to work well.

    Could someone help me please?

    Thank you

    Giada

    Hi Glada Fari,

    Looks like you got questions, add your Google account to your Mac after the update to El Capitan? You can try to add your Google account in the Mail application, if the problem occurs in Internet accounts. If the account is successfully added in the Mail application, you can then adjust specific sync services you want to enable in the accounts of the system preferences. If you need a few quick steps to add the account in the Mail application, please follow the links below.

    Use the mail on your Mac.

    This should allow you to set up your Google calendar as you like. Please use the Apple Support communities to post your question. Good day.

  • MacBook Pro comes with El Capitan will not work with Yosemite?

    You just bought a Macbook Pro (15 ', i7, 16 GB, 512 flash ") which comes with El Capitan and apparently I can't install Yosemite.

    I have the audio hardware and software which is more stable on yosemite by many accounts... After spending $ 3,500, I think I should have the ability to run the previous operating system (Yosemite)... very unhappy about it... as I use my rigging professionally and it's for me real time waster

    I have been informed by mac support to return my mac and get the old stock with a reseller... what a joke!

    Is there a real physical limitation or is it the IEF / SIP / MSC?

    Can anyone offer a solution?

    Thank you

    George

    Well, the line official company has always been that you can not install older software OS on a Mac than the version it came with.

    That said, I can say that I have indeed to install older versions of the operating system on some computers, (the Mac Pro towers). You will find very little written on the question of whether or not you will succeed. I make a backup of everything, the partition of the hard drive and try.

    It has been my experience you can usually return at least a version of the OS, but there is no guarantee.

  • Photosmart more B209a-m does not connect with apple airport extreme base station

    I use the B209a-m wireless with a netgear router OS6.  I just changed the Netgear to an apple Airport Extreme router.  All my other hardware connected successfully with the new router but the B209a-m says "no connection found."  I know the printer is well within the router.  I have reset the factory settings on the printer.  I've disabled the system and restarted.  None of this has worked.  Suggestions?

    Hello

    You should not connect it to the airport.

    You must connect the printer with a USB port on your Mac, then run the HP installation wizard.

    From there, you will be guided to provifde the details needed to establish the connection between the printer and Airport Extreme wireless.

    Once the process will be completed and set up the wifi connection you will be guided to unplug the USB.

    You must use a USB cable high speed standard, not longer than 2 m in length.

    The square end must be connected to the USB port located at the back of the printer:

    New iPhone IS does not work with MAC Mini 10.6.8. Apple support says upgrade your iTunes. Its the wrong color icon. WHAT? iTunes is the last 11.4 for my mac. All my music is on my Mac. Help!

    That is right. The requires iTunes 12.3.3 and in order to get it, you will need to update OS X to El Capitan. That's how Apple has created for better or worse, I'm sorry.

  • I can not proceed with the installation of EL Capitan after downloaded because my same unaccepted Apple ID if the correct password overlay

    Salvation;

    I tried to upgrade my macbook pro OS Yosemite to El Capitan, but I can not proceed with the installation of EL Capitan after downloaded because my ID Administration Apple not accepted even if correct password entry.

    By navigating through ' assistance from Apple is in charge to retrieve the Apple ID, I deleted the keychain, now the problem is I can't add the new keychain.

    Please help as I am now hung the message not found "Login" keychain... then reappear.

    Thank you

    Mel

    Okay, so you didn't get very far in the installation.

    Here's how to reset a forgotten password.

    Do you have a backup before the upgrade, such as a time Machine backup?   (Keychain is not containing the administrative password, unfortunately.)   You remove the login keychain, all stored passwords in Safari and in fact be lost.)   If you have, I would recover the set of connection from there.

    If you don't have a current backup, it's the first think you get.

    There could be a problem with the disk or of protection structure, or with the disc itself.    Creating a new keychain cannot be blocked, short error permissions or a drive problem.    Disk utility and check the drive and see if there is something to do.   (Unfortunately, some of these steps require an administrative password.)   You can try the repairs or a backup to disk by booting from the recovery partition - that won't require no administrative privileges - and attempt a repair or recovery from here, or save the entire drive disk external work.

    You have another Mac around, where certain tools can be generated and can then be used here?

  • 2010 MacBook Pro with El Capitan will not run Apple hardware Tests

    I have a MacBook Pro with El Capitan 2010 installed (10.11.1). He gave me refresh issues such as refresh very slow on the desktop and in the three different browsers, which eventually would crash when I tried to run the videos. I have reset the PRAM. Then ran first aid and received a message ' Mac HD corrupted and needs to be repaired. Tried to run first aid Mode safe, so I started it as such and first aid, then ran with an OK message. Then I tried to run Apple Hardware Test online with D at the start but he would go directly to the grey screen with Apple and would not be executed that the AHT even through I've tried several times. I have not seen anyone with this problem. Any ideas?

    The Apple Hardware test is the second of your original version of records. If you have not taken care of for transfer to a hidden location on your drive, it will be available from these disks. Your Mac is probably too old to get it automatically from the Internet.

  • Will a WD My Passport for Mac (2 TB) not only with Yosemite work, but also with El Capitan if I install that even if El Capitan is not included in the information?

    I use Yosemite for the moment but soon, should move to El Capitan. However, I bought a 2 TB external hard drive to use with Time Machine, because my computer says that I'm at my limit with the 1 TB harddrive that I currently use. Box 2 to hd came says it is compatible with Yosemite, Mavericks, or Mountain Lion. Will I have a problem with this 2 TB hd if I'm moving to El Capitan?

    You will not have a problem with the drive itself; If it contains a software, which may not work with El Capitan, but you don't need any additional software to use a regular external drive.

  • ICloud sync broken between Yosemite (too old for El Capitan) Mac and iOS9.3 on devices, for all Apple applications. Any solution?

    Since that is new iPad and iPhone one last week, with iOS 9.3.4, I can't rely on iCloud (iCloud Drive) for synchronization between these devices and my iMac on docs or entries that I create in Pages, Numbers, calendar, Contacts, Notes, reminders.

    With no synchronization goes, I am now frustrated with Apple based applications.  The only solution is to buy a new iMac that can do El Capitan for iCloud to synchronize?

    My 2008 iMac cannot go beyond the latest version of Yosemite.  Even apps that I continue to use without problems - except iCloud who can't do what it should.  According to me, only yosemite on the iMac in 2008, was made bankrupt by the last iOS.

    That's the problem - unless someone has found a workaround.  Without a functional iCloud, sync that I've been waiting for has disappeared.  I need to change how to manage what I do on the devices and the computer.

    I would like to find a way to "merge" safe documents created in these applications on both devices and the computer. Initially a merger will have duplicates.  I can't let the docs on any device replace the docs on the other.

    To avoid any loss of docs on any device and computers, I'm afraid to try to use iTunes.  So I won't try it.  Maybe I need to go "manual" and look at the files on each and do the merge manually, by sending an e-mail.  Help!  I discovered this by accident and now that I look closer I see that synchronization does not occur.

    between Yosemite Mac (too old for El Capitan)

    Any Mac that can run in Yosemite can run El Capitan. Early 2008 iMacs can run El Capitan.

  • Apple notes do not sync with Gmail Notes

    I use Apple Notes in El Capitan, and it is synced with Gmail notes. Gmail notes does not synchronize with notes of Apple properly.

    Question:

    When I make a new note in the notes of Apple it appears in the notes of Gmail. But not the other way around. I made a note on the notes to Gmail using my Android phone. It appears in the notes of Gmail. But then, it does not show in the Apple notes.

    Solution attempt:
    I tried to go into the settings on my mac and disable gmail notes and turning them back on. My notes are back but not newcomers who have not been using my mac.

    Someone knows how to fix this?

    System:

    -El Capitan (running on Late 2009 MacBook with expanded RAM)

    -Apple notes

    -Gmail notes (hyperlink)

    Syncing Notes from Apple only via iCloud.

  • Notes on Mac, do not sync with icloud

    Very well.  I followed all of the suggestions.  Notes deleted, signed icloud on iphone, ipad and mac.  signed on all devices.  Checked to make sure that I use the same name on all devices.  Been working on it and Google search for answers about a week now?    When I write a note on my Mac Notes, they do not and does not display on Icloud.com 'notes' and vice versa, when I write a note on Icloud.com "note" that they do not appear on my Mac notes?
