    Well, you posted your question in the MacBook (instead of MacBook Air) community, so it's hard to tell exactly what type of machine you actually have.

     

    If you have a MacBook Air, it can only do AirPlay Mirroring if it is from mid-2011 or newer.

     

    If you have a MacBook, it needs to be early 2015 or newer.  (It seems unlikely you have a MacBook, since you said it is a 13" machine.)
