AirPlay

Trying to transfer the viewing of a movie from my Mac to my Sony TV. When I open the AirPlay button, my two other items show as well as my TV. However when I select the TV I get a pop up asking for an AirPlay password. Don’t have a clue.

"AirPlay: The requested password is only 4 digits."

A Code Received:

It would hav been texted to a device you have synced with your Apple Account. Worked like a charm for me. They text you a code, and you enter it. So, were you texted a code? You should power on your other devices when signing in, to see if you get that message.
