    AirPlay Mirroring is compatible with your Mac, but it requires OS X Mountain Lion > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404 You have two possibilities:

     

    1. Make a Time Machine backup and/or a clone with Carbon Copy Cloner, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion. After upgrading, you will be able to turn on AirPlay Mirroring on the AirPlay icon on the at the top right or on System Preferences > Displays.

     

    2. Install AirParrot > http://www.airparrot.com

     

    I recommend the first option, as you will get the most recent version
