Q: Until now, since 1984, nothing about apple has confused me until "apple TV" and how to stream material from my iphone 5 or MacBook Pro to Apple TV. Give up, too confusing!

Until now, since 1984, nothing about apple has confused me until "apple TV" and how to stream material from my iphone 5 or MacBook Pro to Apple TV. Give up, too confusing! Age, I suppose but why so difficult?

    It shouldn't be all that difficult: Just press the AirPlay button that appears to the right of the playback controls on your device and select your AppleTV.

     

    If this button is not appearing then first go into your AppleTV settings and make sure AirPlay is on. If it is and still nothing, then there might be a problem with your wireless router. If so try unplugging said router, wait a couple minutes, then plug it back in.

    Thank you for your prompt and helpful response. I seem to be getting the hang of it now. Certainly music was easy, photos and events a little less so and I am not entirely there with movies I have made; but yes, getting there and thank you
