what wireless card do you have on your client pc ?
let us see the lspci output to see what chip do you have.
with the atheros chipsets, i never succeeded in putting ad-hoc mode with 
the network manager because the driver uses is own userland tools to 
change the mode (wlanconfig).
you should first try to connect manually to your projector to see if its 
working.

I bet that NM cant connect to your projector because he cant switch to 
the ad-hoc mode , then he tries the next valid connection in the list , 
whic we can see on your png file is an encrypted network.
