HI Everyone. I know some 2011 MacBokPRos dont have Airplay, but mine is Late 2011, which should have it.
SInce it doesn't, what can I do, besides AirParrot. Can I update my MacBookPro?
Cheers,
John

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.

Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring
Thanks to the $15 Beamer, AirPlay streaming is still possible on Macs that do not support Airplay and mirroring.
Other solutions are the Air Parrot, StreamToMe, and AirServer.
Airplay is not supported in Lion (10.7.5). It requires 10.8 or later. There are some issues with Airplay under 10.9.2. Not sure if 10.9.3 fixes them.
StreamToMe, and AirServer
are the direct developer links. I do not recommend linking to Macupdate, without the disclaimer that MacUpdate advertises MacKeeper, the worst Malware to date for Macs, which should not be downloaded at any cost, as only these third party uninstallation directions work for it:
