How to output sound from MacBook Pro to stereo receiver/amplifier?

Does anyone here know what I would need to buy to send audio from my MacBook Pro to an external integrated stereo amplifier? I'm sure there's something. I'd like best quality so if you know of a USB solution please let me know.

Typo above, 'headphone port' not 'headphone post.'
Glad to help, and thanks for the !
FYI, the mic port is the same, so if you have a need to get digital audio into your MBP, the mic port will do that as well as analog.
The headphone port actually does triple-duty, in that it's both analog and digital out, and with the longer plug found on the iPhone headset, the headphone port can also function as an analog input.

    ok - since you'll be sharing it with a PC - connect it to your windows pc - then format from there - instead of NTFS format - choose exFAT.
    or, you can read the link below on how to do it in dos mode.

    once you've formatted it - you can now use it in both your macbook and windows computer.

    Photos that were taken with the iPad (or any photos in the camera roll) can be deleted right on the iPad. Tap the trash can icon in the top right corner if you are viewing the pho,to in full screen, or if you are viewing as thumbnails - tap the arrow in the upper right corner - tap the photos that you want to delete and then tap - Delete.

    For transferring videos you could use 'Video Transfer App'. I'm the developer of this universal application (iPhone/iPad) that let's you transfer videos from your iPad or computer directly to another iPhone or iPad.
    The app is currently in the Top 25 iPad apps in the photography category.

    Are your photos housed in the iPhoto app on the Mac? If so, then hook up your device, click on the Photos tab in the Device Profile Screens to the right, select what photos you want sync'd, and then sync your device to iTunes.

  • No sound from MacBook Pro

    Last week, I tried to play music through my MacBook Pro. No sound is coming from either my internal speakers OR my headphone jack. I feel like I read a million threads but none of them seem to apply to my issue. In my Settings>Sound it still displays my "Internal Speakers - Built-in" as the sound output. When I try to adjust the volume, the icon appears normally on the screen. There is no line through it, or simply doesnt work, as other users have posted. I have no red light shining from my headphone jack. Headphones also do not work. Everything (software Wise) seems to be set up exactly as it should be, but still no sound! Could this be a hardware issue? From the time my sound worked to when it stopped working my MBP was just sitting on my desk! Not sure what else to try. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Asher,
    Sorry for the delay in response. Thankfully, a tech person with whom I work discovered the update, so I am not totally sure. I think that she simply switched my software update schedule to every day (instead of weekly), and the firmware was simply part of an update package that was waiting for me. Sorry that this isn't too helpful. I'll try harder to remember to ask her how exactly she accessed the update.
    Kindly,

  • Outputting 720p from MacBook Pro to Plasma Screen

    Is that possible?
    Can you output a high-def FCP project directly from a MacBook Pro via the HDMI monitor port? And how? Otherwise I'm back to burning a bad 'ol standard def DVD.

    Be warned...at that point your only option is DIGIAL CINEMA PREVIEW, and that is basically a large CANVAS window...still a lower res proxie image of your footage. Not full quality. Decent, but not the best you can get it.

  • No sound from Macbook Pro after restart or sleep

    I know there are a lot of threads on this type of issue, but I haven't found a way to solve my problem.
    My computer:
    Late 2008 MBP 15" OSX 10.9.5
    Whenever I shutdown or sleep the computer, the sound does not work when I start it up or wake it up. The startup sound does not play, and the audio controls are not greyed out. Audio does not work through headphones either. Plugging in and unplugging headphones does not solve the problem.
    Sometimes a PRAM reset will solve the problem, and an SMC reset always brings the audio back, but only until I shut it down or put it to sleep again.
    Any help in finding a permanent solution to this problem would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Hello CoDean,
    Continue your troubleshooting with the article below to assist with the issue of not sound on your MacBook Pro. Look at the headphone jack to see if there is a red light coming from there as well as looking in System Preferences > Sound to see if the output is stuck on digital out.

  • Stream sound from Macbook Pro to another device?

    So my headphone jack just half-died on me. I get full sound from the right ear, but the left one has little to no sound coming through. I've had headphone jack issues in the past with my macbook pro and they said I needed to replace the entire motherboard last time which was extremely expensive. My warranty has run out so doing that again would not be feasible, yet I really need the headphone jack to be working since much of my work is video/audio intensive. Is there any way I could stream audio to another device like my phone or something via bluetooth and plug headphones into that to get full sound in both ears? Or is there a fix to this issue that I don't know about? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!
    Macbook Pro 13-inch (early 2010)
    2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    10 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

    You can stream audio via airtunes to an Airport express which has an analogue ouput jack, but it's line level and doesn't have a volume control, but you can use it as the source for a hifi.  You can get third party powered speakers which receive airtunes.  You can stream audio and video to an Apple TV but it only has an optical Tosslink audio out and audio and video out via hdmi.
    You can also get sound out via USB to a an offboard D/A converter which in most cases would be line-level, though you could likely find asomething with a headphone output with a volume control.
    If you look up the specs on your machine you might also find you have digital audio out via tosslink and the headphone jack which is misbehaving as the ports are combined on some models.  Then there is the mini display port which can in some cases output both sound and audio and you can get a long display port to hdmi cable a lot cheaper than an ATV.
    But, while the headphone jack replacement involves a motherboard swap, in reality, what might have happened is that a solder joint for the socket on the motherbord has failed and simply resoldering the joint would fix the issue.  If the internals of the socket like a contact breaking or being damaged is the problem then the MB would likely need replacing given the cost of labour for a tech to source and replace the whole socket.
