TIMMAYOSX Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 My Yosemite install (DP3) is working like a champ, however I recently got a new Apple TV (Gen 3) and it is also working very well. My question is - How do we enable screen sharing in Yosemite? I know in Mavericks, it was in the Display settings pane, but in Yosemite, it does have the checkbox to show the AirPlay icon at the top of the screen when detected, however it is never shown. I've used (well tried) several 3rd party apps to share the screen, videos, etc. and they are all working great (for a price), but where is the native mirroring support? iTunes AirPlay support works, but it only supports a small subset if videos which makes it more or less useless with my sizeable library of non-iTunes compliant content.

midi-sama Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Good question, want to know too, but maybe you must have a compatible wifi module on your hack, I really don't know but maybe it could be this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
styrian Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Hello! Has your display been recognized on Mav as Appledisplay and this has changed on Yos? Have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIMMAYOSX Posted July 9, 2014 Author Share Posted July 9, 2014 Hello! Has your display been recognized on Mav as Appledisplay and this has changed on Yos? Have fun. It is detected as an Acer, like in Mavericks. I have not used AirPlay in Mavericks either as I just recently got my Apple TV and no longer have Mavericks available to boot into since I am now 100% Yos. This is not too much of a problem however, Beamer seems to do the trick for movies quite nicely (Paid, but oh well.. cannot win them all) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
styrian Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Hello! Do you have a working Intelgfx on YOS?. If yes, try to set gfx to Intel and boot with it. Perhaps Airplay is then activated. Have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIMMAYOSX Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 Hmm.. I never tried that. I keep my Integrated GFX disabled in the BIOS as Mavericks liked to use it instead (or as a priority) over my nVidia which results in a black bootup as it is not used. I will try again with Yos and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
styrian Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Hello! If you are on Clover, you could try to add in option the argument nv_disable=1 to disable the Nvidia if booting with the Intel one. But your Intel needs a working config, if enabled. Have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIMMAYOSX Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 With the help from a censored site, I was able to get my Intel HD4600 setup, and still have my nVidia as my primary. AirPlay now works like a treat, and is shown in the menu like it should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
