    When I connect my Mac Mini 2011 with Lion to a TV via HDMI and an earphone cable is plugged in, it´s not possible to choose sound out via hdmi, as opposed to connection via the minidisplay port. Anybody knows how to fix this?

    Was just on the phone with Apple about this.
    The solution was as follows for me anyway...
    Go to your Finder
    Choose the Go Menu
    Choose Computer
    Choose your Macintosh Hard Drive
    Choose your "Library" Folder
    Choose the "Preferences" Folder
    There should be a folder called "Audio"
    Move that whole folder to the trash
    Empty the Trash
    Restart from the Apple Menu
    When you are back up and running;
         Choose System Preferences from the Apple Menu
         Choose Sound
          In the output tab you should now be able to make the HDMI "Sticky"
          Enjoy your sound over HDMI and no more dirty knees or broken backs unplugging the desktop speakers!

  • I have an iMac from 2009 updated all my OS programs even purchased Snow Leopard. Tried to import pictures from my iPad mini and found out my iPhoto program is not working.  Can I get a replacement

    I have a 24 inch 2.93GHz Intel Core 2 duo,purchased April 2009.  I tried to import my photos from my iPad mini and found out that my iPhoto program was not working correctly.
    Is there a way that I can get an updated version of iPhoto.
    Thanks
    <Email Edited by Host>

    What does "not working correctly" actually mean?
    What version of the OS do you have?
    v8.1.2 is the latest version of iPhoto 09. Upgrading beyond that requires a purchase.

  • Mac mini display is flicking via HDMI to DVI adapter and DVI cable

    i have received mac mini server (mid 2011) recently. mac mini is connecting the display via HDMI port using DVI cable with a HDMI to DVI adapter.
    the display shows constant flicking. white dots/lines show randomly. it is like those signal noise when watching analog TV.
    the same display works fine and well with macbook pro (early 2008) via DVI port.
    please help. please advise.

    So you know the display is working.
    It seems to me you have a few possible problems.
    1 HDMI-DVI cable is bad
    2 DVI-cable is bad
    3 Connections between cables or computer or monitor are bad.
    4 HDMI port on the computer is bad.
    I assume you've tried #3, and re-connected cables and wiggled inputs.  So then try replacing 1 and then replacing 2 which are cheaper fixes than replacing/fixing 4.........
    FYI, I'm connect my mac mini using the same setup you describe, with no issues....also inspect the cable ends carefully to look for any problems.

  • I have no audio from the mac mini to the hdtv via hdmi cable.

    This started immediately after the latest "apple software update"  I updated it automatically on 6/24/2011.  I have an elgato eye tv connected to the mac mini that provides BOTH audio and video through the HDMI to the HDTV.  The elgato eye tv works fine.  I get both audio and video. 
    However, I only get picture and NO sound from the mac mini to the HDTV via the HDMI output.  No streaming audio either - only picture. Ive tried pandora, netflix, hulu, etc.  I even put in a DVD into the mac mini and again I receive a picture through THE HDMI but no audio.
    I've shutdown and rebooted.  I've disconnected power and reconnected power.  I've gone into the system preferences, audo, and highlight the SONY HDTV as the output.  But still nothing.  I do notice when I toggle between the "internal speakers' and the HDMI option, the audio arrow on the lower right is bright blue during the internal speakers option but is grey when the HDMI option is connected. 
    I called apple care.  Since I'm 98 days past my 90 days of coverage there is no help via human being.  They offered me to set an appointment at the local apple store but they suggested I bring down my 60 inch HDTV with me to the store to be sure it is not a "Sony" issue.  I hope someone can help me resolve this without having to put this mac mini on craigslist and taking a $ hit.
    This was not an issue yesterday.  It became an issue after the latest and greatest "update" to prepare our machines for the lovely lion.
    Thanks.

    I have the same issue.  I also have the 2010 mac mine and use hdmi for audio to my receiver.  I get audio from eye tv with no problems, but it seems to lock the path so that only it can use that path for audio.  If I restart the computer and do not start eye tv everything else works with hdmi audio.  I have tried using the system settings and changing the source there but it doesnt seem to matter.

  • Lenovo N500 NS74APB and corrupted sound via HDMI

    Hello. I have connected the laptop to TV LCD (Philips PFL7403D/12) with HDMI cable and I noticed corrupted sound. There are noises (crackles) and vanishing sound for seconds. Also when i.e. moving the window between the screens, the crackles occure. On internal speakers the sound is correct. What can be the problem? Is it laptop, TV or HDMI cable, which causes the problems?

    I also use the N500 modell (747) and want to watch videos, I have problems with the sound, too.
    I have connected the notebook with a HDTV projector, resolution 1920 x 1200,  via HDMI cable.   
    The screen of the notebook is dark.
    Problem: I can hear nothing, the sound from the movie cannot get out from the notebook by the audio front connector.
    Question: How can I catch the sound? Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • Mac mini no surround sound via HDMI to TV

    I have a MacMINI 2011 which is connected via HDMI cable directly to my Samsung UA55HU8590 TV.
    The problem is that the MAC is not delivering a surround sound. If I e.g. watch a movie via iTunes I can only listen in stereo not in DTS or any other dolby sound.
    I see in the midi audio setup at the HDMI entry that all my 5.1 settings are greyed out.
    I have the latest Yosemite installed.
    How can I transfer surround sound via HDMI to my TV?

    Try:
    Force 5.1 out over HDMI

  • Getting sound out via hdmi

    I use an Envy15 on Windows 7 Pro.  When I hook up my laptop to view a DVD via HDMI, I get the video onto my TV set, but the sound is produced by the laptop speakers rather than my soundbar.  I looked in the Beats Audio control panel to adjust a setting but could fid nothing relevant there. Any ideas? 
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Display Devices - make a note of the hardware listed here i.e. ATI, Nvidia or Intel.
    Next, connect your notebook via HDMI to your Tv.  Right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click once ( just to highlight the entry ) the HDMI Output that has the same name as your display adapter and then click the Set Default button - see if you now have audio.

  • Create newsletter with Pages and send out via mail (not attachement)?

    I have a question: I have created a newsletter in Iworks Pages. How can I send this out via mail as a newsletter ? So not as an attachment? I know Microsoft Publisher can do it with 1 click, but I don't want to move to MSFT. Please let me know, I also have Indesign etc. Createion of the newsletter is easy with my Apple, but then it stops....and gets worse the MSFT....

    As far as I know, only single page PDFs will appear directly in the mail and they will do only in some mail applications.
    No it is multipage. Can't test for all appliactions but it was both sent and received on my system/Mail as the 3 pages in the document.
    In other apps and always if the PDF contain several pages, it will be an attachment : what was rejected by the OP.

    Helena stepped in and asked "Would madam like a blue or black one instead?" and made the sale to the lady who wanted a top. It seemed that was more important than none at all.

  • Audio out via HDMI won't work.

    MacBook Air running lastest Lion will not putout audio via HDMI. Video is good, but audio will only play on Air's speakers not on TV. What can I try?

    When you say the adapter works fine on the TV at the store, you mean the very same one you purchased, or anothre Kanex adapter just like yours?
    Also, if you did in fact take your adapter down to the store, did you also take your HDMI cable? How long is your HDMI cable and have you tried another one?
    And another point...is your notebook set to mirror mode within Displays Preferences under the Arrangement tab? If it is, try turning mirroring off so that the TV can run at its own, independent resolution. See if that helps.

  • Lion update to 2010 hdmi Mac mini and Samsung TV via Pioneer receiver

  • New (6.2010) Mini and Subwoofer

    I purchased the new Mini to be my media server and replace an aging laptop that was standing in. HDMI was supposed to be the key for me.
    Unfortunately, I can't get the Mini to pass sound to my subwoofer.
    My setup is a Sony DN1000 receiver driving JBL mains, center, and 2 surrounds, with a Martin Logan 700 as my sub.
    Any recommendations??? I've searched the forums, but nothing specific enough to this issue, although I did try a few things I read.
    I purchased the mini yesterday and watched Hulu on it last night, that was great. But tonight after trying to get the audio portion of it (the primary reason for its purchase) I am starting to doubt that it was worth the $$$.

    I don't think there's anything wrong with the Mac. I suspect that a setting is wrong somewhere (be it on the mac, or the receiver).
    You have the Mac connected directly to the reciver and not through a TV right?
    Did you check that your Sony receiver is set to DEC AUTO instead of DEC PCM?
    Have you tried different surround modes on the receiver, to see if it has an impact? For example, switching to Pro-Logic, DTS Neo, or even Stereo.
    When you use the audio/speaker test in the MIDI control panel/app, and you click on the sub button, do you hear anything from any of your speakers?
    Also, while the Mac is playing sound (that is devoid of sub sound), explore all the receiver settings/menus. The menu options will frequently be different, depending on the input signal being received. So do this exploring while the problematic source is playing. Especially check in the speaker settings, bass management and surround settings.
    Lastly, if none of this works out, try taking the Mac to the house of a friend/relative who has a digital surround receiver and see what happens there.

  • Version 1.1 and audio out via USB problem

    When I attempt to use headphones to assist editing, I prefer to use the m-audio USB transit and set my sound preferences for the iMac accordingly, but STP in my case does not work at all. Instead, I hear clicking ( about 1 sec intervals), followed by STP freeze and unless I force quit, my system freezes.
    If, on the other hand, I use digital out, or a FW interface or the iMac's speakers, all is well.
    I am more than mystified since FC readily works with the USB pathway with video/audio , thus allowing me to use the FW ports on this limited platform.
    I have trashed STPs preferences without any result. I also cannot find (or do not know where to look for) STPs specific preferences for audio out. I apologize in advance for failing to find the reference in the manual, if that is where it is and those settings are the issue.
    Any help and suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    At the risk of seeming to be talking to myself, I can report that I have found a solution to the problem I posted. To be more precise, Apple did,some time ago.

    Thanks to all who looked in. I hope it is useful for someone else, too.

  • 2010 Mini and Lion, what current TVs work/don't work?

    I am currently considering updating my 3 year old Samsung 32" to
    a 40" to 42" LED TV.  What I would like to know, with all the display
    issues Lion seems to have brought up, who has recently purchased
    TVs that work without any problems and those that are really
    problematic?
    Looking more for overall manufacturer experiences, but if you got
    one in this size range, a report on it would be great.

    Had the same issue with my new Netgear WNDR3700. Seems like my ATV or the Netgear would go to sleep and then I would have to wait over half a minute for the ATV to reconnect and sometimes it would lose the connection password or would not reconnect to the ATV or other devices unless I power cycled the router.
    I've since switched to the new Airport Extreme Base Station and everything is working perfectly (so far) including my new ATV2. Connection stays live or at least reconnects instantly when the ATV2 wakes up and the AEBS even wakes up my Lexmark wireless printer for print jobs which the old router wouldn't do. Cheers!
    P.S. The AEBS does not have a browser accessible interface and you have to use the airport tools included on your iMac to set it up. Hasn't been an issue so far. Anything this router lacks is easily offset by the fact that it just works which is a nice change from my previous routers. I also keep all my high speed N stuff including ATV and ATV2 locked on the 5ghz radio and let the slower stuff share the 2.4ghz radio. AEBS is simultaneous dual band. Rename the SSID's to different I.D.'s and then you can force your device to connect to one radio or the other.

  • Mac mini and Sony tv resolution issue

    Hello,
    I have recently purchased a Mac mini for the purposes of hooking it up to my 51" Sony Wega HDTV. I took the mini out and connected the DVI adaptor that came in box and then hooked the mini to the tv via HDMI cable thinking this was the best possible connection for my mini. I have an issue where the screen is over flowing off the TV screen. I looked in system preference and have very limited resolution options but 1080i was selected and also over scan was checked. If I deselect overscan I get borders which I don't want. My tv doesn't have many options so how can I calibrate these two to work togethor?

    I just discovered this is not a TV issue at all...
    Uh, yes it is. Overscan is a condition unique to TVs. Computer monitors don't do it (overscan) hence there is normally no need for the kind of graphics card driver you are talking about, e.g. one that has precise control of video borders.
    Many TVs on the market today have a method for defeating overscan, tucked away somewhere in their menu system, in order to allow the TV to be used just like a computer monitor. That is always the preferred solution when it is available because it will make the best possible image on the TV.
    Your TV is a rear projection TV. Such TVs are not well suited for use as computer monitors because overscan is naturally baked into the optics architecture, meaning the manufacturer deliberately sets the mirror and lens system in such a way as to cause the native resolution (1280 x 720 in the case of your TV) to extend beyond the edges of the projection screen. Therefore it is impossible to get the native resolution of the projector's engine to display fully and perfectly on the screen. Only scaled or bordered version of it can ever be displayed. It's all fixed at the factory and there's no getting around the fact.
    For the original G4 Mac mini that had ATI Graphics, there was a driver like the one you found for your father's Windows computer that allowed video borders to be set independent of resolution. But apart from that early effort on the part of ATI, I have not seen anything like that since for minis that have graphics based on Intel or nVidia hardware. I think you are going to be stuck with the dark video borders as a necessary limitation of the TV you own in the absence of any driver to counteract that limitation.
    I believe the media center front end app called Plex has a facility for setting video borders, but I've never used it personally since I am able to turn overscan off on my TV. So I can't vouch for how well it works. And in any case, since it is bound to the app, it will only be active when Plex is running and not when, say for example, the Finder is in use, which is when you most need it.
