Samsung Smart Tv Apps For Mac

May 20, 2016 - If you have a Mac and a Samsung Smart TV, AirPlay mirroring to the TV would usually require an Apple TV. But now there's an app for that.

Getting Started The Samsung Multiroom app enables listeners to enjoy wireless entertainment in any room in the house, from virtually any audio source, all controlled from a downloadable app and facilitated by plug and play installation. There are several ways to download the Samsung Multi-room App, see below. Compatibility • Android: 2.3.3 (Gingerbread) and higher for phones. 4.0 (Icecream Sandwich) and higher for tablets. • iOS: Version iOS 6 and above (iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch) • Windows Phone: Unfortunately Samsung Multiroom is not available on Windows Phone at this time.

NFC & QR • If your smart phone supports NFC (Near Field Communications) and NFC is enabled on your smart phone, tap the NFC logo on the wireless multi-room speaker, the Samsung Multi-room App will automatically open, select Download. • If your smart device (Android or Mac) supports QR scanning, scan the QR code located on the top of the wireless multi-room speaker, the App will then open, select the option to download and install the App on your smart phone. Playstore (Android) Open the Playstore on your Android device and search for 'Samsung Multiroom', when the search results appear select 'Samsung Multiroom' and then click install. ITunes (Mac) Open iTunes and search for 'Samsung Multiroom', when the search results appear select 'Samsung Multiroom' and then click install.

I have gone through darned near every page in the owners manual including every page related to Smart Hub and AllShare™. Nowhere in the 303 page manual did I find a reference to a PC-based utility that is required enable the TV's ability to access anything. Quite frankly, it would have been somewhat surprising if I had.

This is because Samsung SMART TV sets are powerful computers in their own right. Ms excel free download 2017 18. As such, they should be self-contained. Another consideration is that TV sets are not supposed to require computer science majors for setup; they are supposed to be setup by owners who have relatively little technical knowledge. Grandma would freak-out if she had to download a utility from the internet to allow her computer is be accessed by a TV set. The only reference to using a PC was as an option to download an update file that would then be transfered to the TV via USB thumb drive. Having said all that, if you have a reference to this PC utility requirement, then please give me the name of the document and the page number or give a verbatim quote of the specific language.

Absent a reference to specific language that states the requirement, then I am left to believe that you misunderstood what you read or saw. It is also worth noting that Samsung's owners manual includes a lot of weasel words.

If something on the TV doesn't work on odd-numbered Tuesdays in months with 'e' in the name, then that may be covered in the manual. So you have to give very specific information about your setup when asking for help. To start: • You have already assured me that Windows networking is enabled on your Mac. • Make sure that your Mac and TV set are on the same subnet. Please don't sound so nasty, I am only asking for help. In my first post I gave a link to the software that is needed on the PC in order for the TV to see the computer.

Here it is again Click on the software button. I phoned the Samsung support line (twice) and discussed in some great detail and they told me the TV would not work on a mac because the said mentioned software is Windows only.

I posted here because they are not Mac specialists and I thought someone here might have an answer that the Samsung tech did not. I believe the computer and TV are on the same subnet, but if my 'relatively little technically knowledged Grandma' could do it I don't think it should be that difficult. Thank you for trying to help me with this, but if you can't, I do understand and maybe someone else has an idea. Thanks again. Even after reading Page 213 several times, I overlooked this, the second of three bullets on the page.

I would expect this software to run with a BootCamp installation of Windows. It might also be interesting to run the AllShare™ enabling software in virtual environment like Parallels Desktop running Windows. Without Windows in some fashion, your new SMART TV cannot access media on your computer. It appears as though Samsung does not want the business of Mac users. You have to understand something. In your OP (first post), your only reference to the PC software to as 'an app.' However, I was interested in helping you.
