Analog Audio Output Jack for Digital Speakers with same jack configuration

I just purchased my first Mac, a Mac Pro. I can't get sound to my speakers using the analog out jack. With my old PC, there was a setting for "digital output" even though the digital speakers were attached via to the same style jack as the Mac's analog out jack. I've tried going to preferences but don't see a like setting for digital output. Is there a setting to do so and if not, is there an adapter to convert the Mac's digital audio out to the analog jack style?

Do you want digital or analog? Your question seems to imply that you have speakers that accept a digital signal but you also say you want analog...??
Anyway, my Mac Pro (2006 model) has separate analog and optical digital outputs on the back. The pictures on the apple website still show the same thing on the Mac Pro so I'm guessing it's the same. I think only the Mac laptops have the analog/optical digital combo jacks...
The optical digital outputs are the little white squarish ports beneath the rear firewire ports.
The MacPro does not have a SPDIF RCA style output. Maybe that is what you are thinking of from the windoze pc...
You should be able to enable the rear analog line output or the digital outputs from the System Preferences > Sound > Output screen. The front headphone outputs kind of act weird in that they disable the rear line output (if I remember correctly, I never use the front port...).

  • Apple TV2 missing analog audio output for multi-zone system

    Found out the hard way that most receivers can't support digital audio in multiple zones (i.e., Zone 2). Since Apple TV2 (ATV2) dispensed with any analog output, if you have a whole-house system that depends on mult-zone to distribute audio to various speakers, you won't be able to use ATV2 to stream music to anything other than Zone 1. The only outputs are HDMI and optical (both digital audio). I think I found a work around (which, of course costs more money) which is a "de-embedding" device from Atlona that takes HDMI in and splits out the audio to analog and passes the HDMI through to the receiver. The analog audio output then lets me connect to the analog in on the receiver so it can stream to all zones. I figure Apple just didn't have enough real estate on the new product to make room for analog, but it's a pain. Hope this helps someone. If anyone knows a better work-around, I'd love to hear it.

    I have the same issue with a MacMini I use for music. My solution was to use an inexpensive optical splitter - one feed to the optical input of my receiver and the second to a DAC. Then run standard RCA audio cables from the DAC to the analog Zone 2 inputs.
    Here is a link for a DAC
    http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?cid=104&cp_id=10423&cs_id=1042302&pid=6884&seq=1&format=2
    They should have the splitter as well.

  • Apple Pro speakers with mini jack connect to new Intel iMac ?

    I would like to be able to connect the pair of perspex globe Apple Pro Speakers with mini-jack that came with my PowerPC G4 Mac to my new Lion desktop Intel iMac.
    However, the mini-jack is too small for either the ' audio in / optical digital audio in port ' or the ' headphone out / optical digital audio out port ' (I'm not sure which is the correct one to use !)
    Is it possible with an adaptor, or by some other means, to connect them ?
    If it is unfortunately not possible, any cheap alternative speakers recommended would be appreciated.

    There are no adapters that are readily available to use the old Apple Pro speakers with other computers or newer Macs.
    The only adapter that worked but has long been discontinued in the Griffin Technologies iFire.
    These are even harder to find now and if you do, indeed find one, you're going to pay an outrageous amount of money just for an adapter that used to sell for $40!!
    For the cost of this adapter, you could just buy new speakers.
    The big problem with the old Apple Pro speakers is that Apple went out of its way to make sure you couldn't use these speakers with anything else but certain G4 Mac models. The connector and subsequent wiring make these speakers very proprietary and limited use without spending gobs of time altering some of the components and purchasing external computer audio amps and connectors.
    Apple simply made these unusable on anything but their own hardware at that time.
    It's simply not worth the effort.
    Look in the Apple Store online. There are a lot of decent priced, good-looking speakers to use with your iMac.
    Good hunting!

  • Changing audio output device for currently running program

    I'm not sure where to put this question, but all my searching hasn't seemed to find an answer...
    If I have a program running, iTunes, VLC, a game, whatever, and want to change audio output from say Line Out to Headphones, I have to restart the program for the change to take effect. Is this by design/normal or am I missing something somewhere?

    this is actually a quiet significant issue. There is no way in Flash to select the audio output device.
    Today  people have regular speakers and a separate headset. They all use the  speakers for music and the headset for voice. Skype i.e. has the option  to choose audio output device and its really handy, because
    you dont  have to bother to set the default device to the headset everytime you  want to use it.
    If you set the default device to the headset all other apps will send their audio  output to the headset - which is not what you want either.
    So people  really want to leave the default device set to the speakers and not to  the headset.
    Nokia did this for Java
    JRT 2.1 / Nokia UI API updated to version 1.4:
                AudioOutputControl extension for controlling which audio output device, for example the device loudspeaker or earpiece, is used to play back audio
    This really is an issue.

  • I lost audio output except for USB headset any Ideas?

    Has anyone experienced the loss of audio output except for the USB port?  If so what might I try to fix the problem?

    Hello,
    Ever had anything plugged into the sound out port, sometimes the jack doesn't close properly?
    Have you done a PRAM reset, CMD+Option+p+r...

    In fact, do 3 in a row, takes a bit of time.
    Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there, some things will change it for their own use, then not set it back.

  • CUOM 2.3 sends multiple notifications for Event StoppedGSUPerformancePolling with same time stamps

  • Audio output changed to 'Digital Out' and speakers don't work! Please help!

    I'm not exactly sure what's happened, but after starting up my macbook pro, my speakers/audio haven't worked.
    The volume control in the menu bar is inactive (looks light grey) and in the Sound menu, I have no option for output devices except for 'Digital Out' - there is no other option for 'external speakers' (as per usual) or anything!
    I can plug earphones in, and sound comes out fine... I don't know what may have happened, but I'm really worried - I use my MBP for home & work; I need my speakers to work!!
    If anyone can offer any advice, I'd be really grateful. Thank you in advance.

    Talked to Tech Support about this when my machine locked up in this same fashion. There's a little "door" inside the headphone jack that can get stuck in the open position and keep the audio from switching back to the internal speakers / stuck in the digital (optical) output position...
    The solution: the iPick... It's a toothpick, but if you use it to poke around inside the headphone jack until the little door gets unstuck, it becomes an iPick, and a box of them are very expensive, but they come in lovely colors and are very intuitive to use...
    I'm not kidding... Stick a toothpick (or other non-conductive small stick) in the headphone jack and joog it around until it releases the little door...

  • ITunes and Audio Midi settings for digital output sampling frequency

    Most of my music is sampled at the CD standard of 44.1 kHz, but some is 48 kHz.
    I have Audio Midi set to output 48 kHz with 24-bit depth.
    I've been told that to avoid having iTunes up-sample when playing 44.1 kHz music, that I need to quit iTunes, manually reset the setting in Audio Midi to the lower, matching, number, and then re-start iTunes.
    This strikes me as odd. Is it true? If so, is there any less cumbersome way to deal with this?

    Wheat I agree entirely with your last sentiments.
    I had a similar problem to 'Luckydog'.
    I have a Roland HP3 digital piano which itself is a standalone musical instrument (synthesiser if you like) but also has midi in/out and audio in/out.
    I made the mistake of connecting my Mac PBG4/GB2 setup to my HP3 via the Edirol UM2 USB interface, expecting to hear my piano's sounds recorded in GB2. Of course GB2 did not record anything when I selected real instrument track beacuse the Roland, I think, was sending audio not midi data to GB2. What I have since realised is that to record a real instrument whether it be a digital piano (or acoustic piano via microphone) is to set the GB2 input to audio and feed the signal from the Roland via its audio outputs to my Mac via audio interface. (I have a USB Grifin iMic).
    Of course I could use the Roland purely as a midi controler and select a software instrument track in GB2, but I also have a Radium 49 simple midi controller keyboard for that.
    One thing that does puzzle me though is, that if I hook up my Roland via the UM2 to a WindowsXP laptop running an app. called Cakewalk Music Creator, the Roland sounds are recorded in the timeline and can be viewed, edited and printed as conventional music scores(great for composers!!) Also the Roland track recorded in CMC can be played back through the Roland's on-board sound generator.
    In this scenario there is no audio feed between the Roland and the PC only two way midi via the UM2 USB/midi interface.
    This is seems to be a fundamental difference between GB2 and the Cakewalk product. Can you explain what's going on hear Wheat?.

  • [SOLVED] Only HDMI/Displayport audio outputs; no sound from speakers

    I have a Dell XPS14 running Arch, which has worked fine for a while, but now has suddenly stopped detecting the internal speakers and headphones, so it will not play sound.   I have tried a few things to narrow down the problem, but I've had no luck so far.  In GNOME shell, when I press the physical volume up/down buttons on my laptop, it displays a sound icon with "HDMI / DisplayPort" underneath . When I go into the gnome shell audio settings menu, everything is greyed out, and no output devices are listed. 
    If anyone has any suggestions as to what the problem might be or how I might go about troubleshooting it from here, I would appreciate it.
    One thing that struck me was that I had installed a music player, Clementine, recently, and I'm not sure if I did or did not ever have sound after that. I installed Clementine and two optional gstreamer0.10 plugins (bad and ugly). Since this seemed like it would be possibly related, I've since removed Clementine, the new gstreamer plugins, and all of their dependencies not needed by any other package. So I now don't think that is likely to be the problem. Just to be thorough, though, here are the packages which were installed:

    Thanks again for the info and suggestions.  I thought the same thing regarding the sparse output of alsamixer, but since I never had trouble with the sound before, I don't know how much would have shown up when everything was working well. 
    I still haven't really found a smoking gun here, unfortunately.  As far as I can tell, the power saving settings look about right, because the power saving settings for the HDMI audio (which works) looks to be the same as the others.
    Thanks for the link with more information regarding the module options for the intel sound driver.  I'm going to dig into those when I have time next week.  The thing that makes me less optimistic that I'm going to fix it with module options is that I can't figure out how those module options would suddenly change.
    I'm also going to try out the linux-lts kernel to see if it behaves any differently, and then maybe boot another distro with a usb key to see if it works, and if so, what looks different.
    Here's what I get from the suggested tests. Let me know if anyone sees something strange that I missed.

  • Can audio output be simultaneous from HDMI and headphone jack?

    I need to be able to output both hdmi and analog audio out of the headphone jack at the same time.  Can this be done?  Currently, it makes me choose one or the other and won't let me choose both.

    As is no. There are some audio rerouting apps out there that could perhaps help, but I am not versed in using them.
    Look into AU Lab and JackOSX.

  • How can I toggle my iTunes audio output from my TV speakers to my Mac speakers

    I've just recently set up my Apple TV.
    This morning, I tried playing a song on my Mac with the intent of hearing it from my Mac speakers. However, the output came out of my TV speakers. How can I choose where the audio output is coming from?

    From your Old Computer... Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..
    An Added Bonus is that you will then have a Backup of iTunes...

  • BI: Virtual Provider for ECC Report with same selection parameters

    Dear all,
    I have attached screen shot of ECC report selection screen with contain Material, Plant and Dates. As report is bit complex and I need to use just ITAB (internal table) of it for further use in BEx Query and for Dashboard purposes.
    Problem: I need to call this report by creating Virtual Provider in BI so that I get data from ECC at runtime as it is shares report so I can't able to save any data in transparent table as report calculated opening balances at runtime.
    It is possible for me by using function module i can get itab by submit return and then create Data Source for it ?
    As i make copy of FM ZZRSAX_BIW_GET_SIMPLE i cannot use submit there due to OPEN CURSOR mechanism there.
    Kindly anyone suggest how it is possible to call report with same selection parameters for creation of virtual provider.
    Please mention if i miss any point in explaining problem.
    Feel free to ask for any query.
    Many thanks.
    Hoping for positive and quick responses.

    please create 2 reports as given below.-
    REPORT  ZSZP_00007.
    parameters a(5) .
    parameters b(5) .
    parameters c(5) .
    AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.
    LOOP AT SCREEN.
    IF screen-name = 'A' or screen-name = 'B' .
      get parameter id 'aaaaaaaaaaa' field a.
      get parameter id 'bbbbbbbbbbb' field B.
    screen-input = 0.
    MODIFY SCREEN.
    ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.
    start-of-selection.
    your logic
    REPORT  zszp_00005.
    PARAMETERS a(5).
    PARAMETERS b(5).
    START-OF-SELECTION.
      SET PARAMETER ID 'aaaaaaaaaaa' FIELD a.
      SET PARAMETER ID 'bbbbbbbbbbb' FIELD b.
    your logic
    SUBMIT zszp_00007 VIA SELECTION-SCREEN.
    i hope this approach will solve your problem.
    thanks

  • After using my macbook for 2 years with same printer,all of a sudden I can't print a page doc even though printer is working and I can print from I/Mail, etc.Anybody had this happen and have a possible answer?

    After using my MacBook Pro and pages for 2 years with the same printer, all of a sudden I can't print a pages doc even though the printer works and I can print from I/Mail, etc. Anyone have a possible answer?

    Often printing problems are a sign of corrupt preferences. Go to HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences, delete the com.apple.iwork.pages.plist file & then restart Pages.

  • Create a Connection on TREX for 2 systems with same SID

    Hello world,
    Here is my case,
    We have a PRO systems With SID=PRO On Host= production , and a Sandbox system with also SID=PRO On Host=SANDBOX
    now i need to create a connection in TREX in parallel so when i add the 2nd one it just edits the 1st one that i have already made
    So is it possible to create 2 connection of same SID but diffrent Hosts In parallel?
    If Yes how ?
    Thanks In Advance...
    Ahmed Salam

    Hi Ahmed,
    it could be possible from the TREX perspective , however such configuration isn't supported . The reason for this is that the SAP applications create indexes using the ABAP system ID and client as a part of the index names (f.e. esh:e10002~e10002~acc_sid~sid). As it's not possible to create an index with the same name 2nd time, you will not be able to use the TREX instance with two systems with same SID.
    Best regards,
    Mikhail

  • After updating my wife's iPad to iOS6 the ipad will not connect to wifi on certain wireless routers. What can we do? Also, same for iPad mini with same router. But iPhone that has iOS5 has no problem connecting.

    Need help. Before updating to latest software iOS6 the iPad had no issues connecting on our home router. After updating the iPad will not work. We have a mini iPad with same issue. But I have a iPhone 4S that I chose not to update to iOS6, still has iOS5. It connects no problem to router. Our computers have no issues connecting to router either. There is a software issue with iOS6.0.1 that will not allow certain routers to communicate. What can I do?  Also, the mini iPad stated a newer version of software is out, version 6.0.2 which is supposed to correct the wifi problems. It has helped but still haven't connectivity issues. However, the iPad states software is up-to-date so we cannot update to 6.0.2 even through connecting to computer on iTunes. How can that be?

    Try going to settings, reset , reset network settings.
