Airplay apple tv 1

Hello!

Tell me please, can i airplay from my iphone 9.1 to apple tv 1 gen? Can not find any proving materials=(

I bought it on the second market (used). It seems that airplay worked started to use it. But after that i tried a lot of things so i needed to recover. Now i have only airtunes, and can't remember was an airplay on it or not or it does not work. Also interesting is it possible to install 3.0.2 on mac mini (hope it's not a hack)?

Thanks for the answer.)

MacBook Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.2), ssd plextor 128gb m6pro optibay

I still have one sitting around somewhere. The newer ones are much pleasanter to use. The whole syncing thing was a bore.

I'm not positive - I don't have the 1st gen. But based upon older threads and the AirPlay minimum requirements - no...

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.

The original Apple TV was a very different device than the three later models. It's basically a giant iPod with connectors to your television. You transfer data to it by syncing it with iTunes.

It seems that you are right=(

(i didn't told about mirroring, just music stream)

i know about remote hd, but my iphone does not have it, so it's really secret how it worked (maybe i just imagined it) or it had atv Flash and i didn't recognize it(

So thanks a lot!

Hope to fined any possible solutions)

Oh, and what about installing 3.0.2 on mac mini?) It seem that i know answer but may be..
