Anybody has issues streaming Apple TV from iPad/iPhone?

It seems the airplay has issues ever since upgrading to iOS 9.

I'm intending to switch over from PC to Mac. My question is when migrating all songs or photos over to Mac, does everything goes into iTunes?

My current iTunes does not contain all songs in my PC, so is there a way where I can transfer all my songs and my iTunes playlist like it is on my PC?

Hi guys,
How to cleaning the Macbook aluminium body from Newspaper ink stains, Oil, dirt.....?

I know this sounds kinda silly but it kinda tough getting rid of those stubborn stains.

Any suggestions, tricks, tips beside "magic" water with soap?

TIA

Hi all,

I am looking to get either a macbook air 13 or a retina macbook pro 13 to replace my desktop.
I do not create content and usually I stream some videos and do some heavy browsing at chrome.
Thinking of getting a macbook air with 8gb of ram. Would it be smooth and sufficient?

Thank you!

Get the rMBP

The Air is "outdated"(no retina display etc) and the Pro is much more powerful for the future
The retina display is really worth the extra $$$

That said, the Air will be able to stream videos and browse the web smoothly(use Safari, Chrome isn't really optimised for efficiency)

Also, Apple is said to refresh them early next year in March so if you can wait
