Q: Airplay icon not showing up on imac

I have a newer 2011 imac with os x 10.9 maverick and my apple tv is 5.0..  Mirroring airplay works fine from my iphone 4s, but I can't get an airplay icon to appear on my imac.  What am I doing wrong?

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)

A:

No, not from Apple - it uses a hardware feature of newer Intel chips.

 

You might want to try a software alternative called AirParrot - Google it - they have a demo.  Mixed opinions about the results but may be ok for what you need.
