os x build 12c60 apple tv mirroring

Hello,


i was trying to mirror my imac (build12C60, all new software) to my apple tv 2g (build12C60, all new software) but it did not work.


I can also not see the typical button for mirroring!

Can anybody tell me if it is possible to use mirroring with my imac and how to use it.

About AirPlay and Airplay Mirroring


AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, 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). For non-qualifying Macs you can try using Air Parrot.

Thanks to the $15 Beamer, AirPlay streaming is still possible on Macs that do not support Airplay and mirroring.

Another solution is the Air Parrot.
