Q: I have checked my MacBook Air is Mid 2011 but how come I don't have the AirPlay Mirroring?

Even though it said MacBook Air (Mid 2011) suppose to be able to do AirPlay on Apple TV, but when I try to set it up from System Preferences > Display, it doesn't have the option to do that? Can anyone explain?

MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.5)

    Welcome to the Apple Community.


    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).
