Hey Behunted,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.


Check the System Preferences to make sure mirroring is setup.

  1. Make sure your additional display is properly connected and powered on.
  2. From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
  3. From the View menu, choose Displays.
  4. Click the Arrangement tab.
  5. Enable (check) "Mirror Displays" in the bottom-left corner of the Arrangement pane.


Have a nice day,

Mario
