AirPlaying from your Mac to an LG TV is a convenient way to share your Mac’s screen or stream content. Here’s a breakdown of the process:

  • Press the Home button on your LG TV remote.
  • Navigate to Settings.
  • Look for “Apple AirPlay & HomeKit” settings.
  • Ensure AirPlay is turned on.

4. Start AirPlay from Your Mac:

  • Click “Screen Mirroring.”
  • Select your LG TV from the list.
  • Enter the AirPlay code displayed on your TV if prompted.
