Connecting a Sony BDV-N790 W to a Samsung Smart TV Model UN40D6050TF

Just a few days ago I bought the Sony DVD/Receiver/surround sytem at best buy. I
I also bought a new HDMI cable to connect it to my TV. I truly believe I followed everu step in setting the dvd player and surround up. (Though I'm human)
The dvd player sounds beautiful through the surround.
The Reciever can't pick up even a strong signal from local channel
But what is more terrifying mr more is; No matter what I try my TV does not seem to connect with the audio of the Sony.
In a word I get NOTHING.
Is there a possible schematic or something I can be directed to, to help?
Any suggestions before I bring this back and give up cause I'm thinking it's too complicated for me?
I'm a good learner and patient but I'm hoping I didn't throw mmy moeny away
Anyones help suggestions go to link etc would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the forums.
There are two ways to approach this. The most common is to route audio from the TV back into the theater system. Optical is the preferred connection, with an analog output from the TV being the other option.
If your TV does not have any audio outputs, or the one it has are incompatible, it make be possible to route the audio from the cable or satellite box directly.
What is the make and model of your TV, and do you subscribe to a TV service?

Sony BDV-E570 - Cannot get sound from TV to Sony system using Digital Optical Cord

I get beautiful audio out of this system in FM Tuner, BD/DVD, and Internet Radio - no buzz whatsoever. However... the only way that I can get ANY audio from the TV or Cable box to come out of the Sony system is with RCA cables (the old style Red / White). This produces a horrible buzz but at least the TV sound comes out. The manual gives three different options for streaming TV audio through your Home Theater System. I purchased an 8' Rocketfish digital optical cable at Best Buy. It doesn't work at all! No audio at all. It fits, but doesn't quite want to "stay in"; is this normal???
I have the Sony BDV-E570 system, Vizio 46" TV (purchased 6 months ago) and a Comcast Digital HD cable box. All three have the same optical outlet and this cable doesn't "stay" in any of them. Does this sound like an Optical Cord issue? I really don't want to take this system down and lug it back to the store.
Thanks for any help!

An optic cable should be able to fix the buzzing sound. If for some reason it isnt staying in the back of the system, then there could possibly be a falty connection in terms of the optic cable input or connector. Otherwise, as long as you have the audio cable hooked up, no matter which route you choose to connect them, and have your tv's audio set to external speakers you should be all set. If this continues to not work, I'd try calling either Geek Squad/Home Theater specialist or call Sony's technical line and see if they have any other suggestions. I myself am a Best Buy Home Theater specialist and this is my initial reaction to the issue at hand.

How to connect a Sony Bravia TV to the internet through your Airport network

Since it took me a lot of time to figure out how to connect my Sony Bravia TV to the internet through my Airport network, I better share how to do it. Hopefully saving others a lot of time.
My 32EX600 Sony Bravia TV is Ethernet connected to my Mac Mini, which is part of my Airport network, together with another Mac, an Airport Extreme Base Station and an ADSL modem/router. Moreover, the Mac Mini is connected to the TV by HDMI.
Whatever I tried in the TV’s Wired Network Set-up (Auto, or Manual with manual IP, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway and DNS IPs), I couldn’t get it right. Cable Connection and Local Access were mostly OK, Internet Access always Failed.
The solution lies in the Sharing panel of the System Preferences of the Mac Mini. In the Internet Sharing item of that panel, you should choose to “share your internet connection from WiFi to computers (the TV in this case) using Ethernet“, and NOT (as I had chosen before and seemed so obvious) “share your internet connection from Airport to computers using Ethernet“. After that change, the Bravia Network Set-up, using the Wired and Auto options, flawlessly connected to the internet. No expensive (Sony) WiFi USB dongle needed.

I have now had a detailed reply from Sony Europe and the way to do this is to:
1.       Press Home on the TV Setup
2.       Use the right and left arrow to select Setting.
3.       Use the up and down to select Network, press Enter.
4.       Select Network Setup.
5.       Select Wireless setup.
6.       Select Scan
7.       Select your network
8.       A new screen will appear asking for entering the security key.
9.       Enter your WPA2 key.
10.   Select Enter.
11.   It will take you back to the same screen asking for entering the
security key.
12.   Press the right arrow.
13.   Select Auto.
14.   Press the right arrow.
15.   Select Save and connect.
These instructions are not the same as shown on the TV but they worked fine for me so they may help others with a similar problem.

How to connect my sony blue ray play to wifi via my airport utility?

how to connect my sony blue ray play to wifi via my airport utility?

The airport utility has nothing whatever to do with the sony bluray player.
The airport utility is to setup wireless in the airport.. once you setup wireless then you use the sony setup for wireless in the player as per its manual.
Please do keep the wireless names short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
As well as pure alphanumeric passwords if you want to do this successfully.

How do connect my sony bravia tv as a monitor screen for mac pro

How do I connect my Sony Bravia tv as a monitor for my MacBook Pro? I have an hdmi lead with an adapter to the computer and get a picture of factory setting cosmos with some of the folders of my desktop going off the side of the tv screen.

If you have the right cable, and have set the right input on your Sony, then you need to adjust one thing. Go to System Preferences>Displays>Set Mirroring. I think you've got it set to Extended desktop, which means the Sony is just a HUGE extension of your Mac OSX desktop.
That should fix your issue.

You can connect the audio from your iMac to your TV using a mini jack (like headphones plug) to rca (regular red and white audio connectors used on every TV,DVD, etc) cable.
On your TV, you need to be able to set the audio for the HDMI input you will use to "analog" and connect the rca end of the cable to the analog inputs on your TV.

What cable do I need to connect my sony video camcorder to my macpro

I need to purchase a firewire cable that will connect my Sony min tape camcorder to my Mac Pro laptop and I am not sure what to get.

Look at your Sony camera or read the instructions for same. It probably will be a mini USB connector. If it is, you will need a mini USB/USB wire.

Can I connect 2 sony bravia's, a sony home theatre, 2 macbooks, 2 ipads, 3 iphones and a dell laptop and stream media from my apple devices to my tv?

Can I connect 2 sony bravia's, a sony home theatre, 2 macbooks, 2 ipads, 3 iphones and a dell laptop and stream media from my apple devices to my tv? I have a sony bravia 600 series and 700 series and a home theatre( sony 7100 series)

The only way to stream directly to your TV would be if it is an AirPlay-enabled device.
There are many AirPlay-enabled devices but I am not familiar with Sony's products. If yours do not specifically indicate AirPlay capability, then you need an AirPlay-enabled device such as an AppleTV connected to your Sony TV or Sony AVR.

The MB053LL/A is the 2nd generation 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn). This number is the base station's Product or Order number. The Model# for this base station is: A1143 and should be printed on a label on one of its sides.
For future reference, an excellent utlity to help identify Apple hardware is Mactracker.

What happens when, after you connect your cam, you go to File > Import Media?
But before that, does your cam require you to export your video files upon USB connection? I have a JVC Everio HD and I have to "Export to Library" from the cam's menu first-thing. This was true even in prior iMovie versions.

HT5299 can i connect my sony smart TV via thunderbolt port for better resolution.

can i connect my sony smart TV via thunderbolt port for better resolution.

You can connect the TV via the Thunderbolt port. However if the result is "better resolution" would depend on what resolution you have now (I'm guessing you mean with the HDMI adapter?)
I'm myself connecting the Mini Mac with a Thunderbolt->VGA adapter to my TV and get full 1920x1080 resolution.
Have you checked your Display settings? Make sure mirroring is off, then check what resolutions you can get on the current connection.
Please return with some more data.

Cant connect my Sony Bravia to my mac.

I'm having trouble connecting my sony bravia tv (KDL-32BX300) to my mac. I have tried pretty much everything and have used the cable on other tv's with my mac anyone have any idea what the problem is? My mac can't find the tv at all.
Any help would be great

According this: https://docs.sony.com/release/specs/KDL32BX300_mksp.pdf
That Tv is not a full HD TV, only 720p and as such may not be able to support the Mac's full resolution.
You may need to lower the resolution on the Mac to get it to work. According to the specs, this is its maximum resolution: 1366 X 768p
Depending on which adapter you are using may also be hat resolution you get. HDMI outputs at 1080p by default which your TV cannot support.
