HI, how are yiu moving the macbook screen to the tv on the pad
Excellent content
My macbook doesn't have the Airplay icon option to click on in the Display section. Is this because it's older than the macbook you are using in this video?

Same here, and we can no longer connect via HDMI, Apple want their customers to buy Apple monitors and not use our tv as a monitor. I can’t use Mirror sharing either.
how do we set up the audio component? So far my mac air display is mirrored on the TV, but the audio is still coming from my mac..
You are sooooo good! Thank you!!!!!!!
Hello. First of all, thank you for this, it is helpful. I have a question. I was watching a movie last night on my tv. I connected my MacBook to the tv via HDMI, but how do I get the MacBook display to turn off while I watch something on my tv? Is this even possible? It was possible o my old windows computer. Am I doing something wrong? Thank you!
I have a MacBook Air m2....type c to hub & hdmi cable & weyona tv...what do I need to tick in my Mac to get it to recognise the tv?
If I use a usb c to usb cord and take a usb to hdmi cord can I use that with my MacBook Air to mirror ?
Damon thank you so much you explained that great and somehow with my ADHD I didn’t even skip wow gold star please 🙏🏻
have a macbook pro, using a USBC C to vga/ hdmi monitor adapter to connect to computer monitor and macbook pro does not recognize the external 2nd display... any solutions.
I have used the HDMI wire successfully with my macbook Pro, where SOUND transferred. Now I have a new airbook and the video shows up but NOT the sound. Ideas?
What if my my macbook pro screen is boken, will method 2 work? Thank you.
Good video and explanation, just a quick question. If I wanted to do this and close the MacBook and get a wireless mouse and keyboard would I just be able to leave the macbook closed and just use the Tv or will it turn off once I close it ? Thanks in advance.

How do I add to my to if I can’t see my MacBook screen due to damage etc
Are using chromecast for the wireless method?
I was having trouble using my Samsung Smart HDTV as an external display while trying to watch movies with my Apple TV app on my Mac book. I didn't want to Airplay with my MacBook, as I wanted to use an HDMI cable from my laptop directly to my TV. Whenever I tried to watch a movie on my HDTV I would get a message saying that it couldn't because of HDCP issues. I then decided to download the movies to my computer and to my surprise I was then able to view the movies with no problem. In the process I made sure that I went to my account setting on Apple TV app on my laptop and authorized my computer with my Apple ID. Not sure which process solved the problem. So if downloading movies solved the problem, or authorizing my account within the Apple TV app solved the problem it worked. Hope this will help folks who are having similar issues while trying to stream movies on an external display.
Great tip BB. Many thanks...♨️

No problem 👍
I am concerned of the speed. if I were to watch a video (from a random website) from my browser, will it play seamlessly on the TV? which option is best for that use case? Thanks:)

Just about any option using a wire from the Mac to the tv will be fine. However, if your internet is slow and the video is choppy, then that's a network issue.
Can the whole screen be mirrored wirelessly with chromecast? My TV doesn't support AirPlay
can i mirror my iMac using apple TV ??
Thank you. Unfortunately my Mac Air(2015) doesn't have USB-C port but USB-A. Can you tell me how to connect them for this case ?

Wired method doesn't work very well for me. A major lag between Macbook & TV, and the audio is crackled. Not sure how to fix that...
Instead of an adapter, for the wired method can you use a single cable that at one end has a USB-C fitting and the other end has an HDMI fitting and connect directly? I’m trying to connect my MacBook Pro to my projector and wanted to know if this would work

I think it should work, one problem might be length. But you can always use an hdmi extender (15$ at Walmart)
I'm in a hotel, my TV in my room doesn't have HDMI but more of the Red, Yellow small ports ( Don't know the name lol), how would I connect in this case?

Bruh just watch in your phone.
when doing the wired method, could the sound come from the mac instead of tv? or is it only strictly from the tv
@QuidProQuo911

Whichever view you choose, for instance as long as the TV is mirroring the Mac then sound will automatically play from the TV, but I’m sure you can alter sound output in the settings via the Mac
Which method is better to pass the signal, hdmi to usb c or hdmi to hdmi?
@Babblingboolean

Hard to say. USB-C has multiple versions, so does HDMI ex. HDMI 2.0, 2.1, etc. Unfortunately what should be simple, can be complicated. If you're not concerned with mirroring the best quality of your Mac (from mirroring a movie or something), don't overthink it. Research a good quality solution with good customer reviews, that is easiest for you and use it. If it's no good, then return it.
I've mirrored my Mac to my Television... but I don't have sound? help me out?
Is there a way to connect the lap top to a tv when they are not in the same Wi fi network?

Use a wired method as shown in the video.
I’m getting sound and my desktop screen coming from my tv but I can’t get the show to appear
I assumed latency is better for wired methods?
Super easy to follow. Thank you

My ariplay display jus says off no options
Can you watch movies on Netflix, Disney etc. with USB-C to HDMI cable? Everything is ok until you want to do that. You will have a sound but no video. Do you have a solution for that??
I can see the Tv on setting , so I can connect the Mac with tv

The quality of the image on the TV does not look as good as what is on the Macbook.
