Apple TV sound inquiry

Hello,
I am trying to run my Apple TV through my TV and not getting any sound. I have a Bose sound system, a digital cable box, a TV and Apple TV. They are connected like so:
Apple TV-->TV
TV-->Cable box
Cable box-->Bose system
Bose is NOT connected to TV, and cable obviously isn't connected to Apple TV.
Is there anything I can do to get my Apple TV to play through my TV without dramatically changing what I already have?
Thanks!

So only the cable box is connected to the bose system, so only audio from the cable box can send audio to it.   Connect the audio out on the TV to bose system.  That way anything played on the TV will play to them.

    Im fed up please any advice

    i have this same issue. The sound was working fine. I have to pause the streaming, and then when I hit play again, no sound. I have also tried, unplugging, for 30 minutes (everything: sound cable, HDMI, power, and network) then restarting. I tried switching the HDMI source. The sound works fine on the tv without the apple tv or with the dvd. Just not with the apple tv. I have updated the software. The sound doesn't work for streaming via airplay, playing anything off itunes, it doens't even have sound for the sound effects when you navigate on the home screen. I too am extremely frustrated. Google TV here we come.

    Hi Aparana.rahul,
    The beeps during the startup of your MacBook Pro indicate that it may need to be serviced. See this article for further information -

  • Ny new apple computers sound is gone

    my new apple computers sound is gone what can i do to get it back ?

    Provided you haven't muted it (F10 key, can check in System Preferences /  Sound), and you have recently used headphones or any device that plugs into the jack, peek and see if there's a dot of light at the bottom.

  • I have switched languages to french but get the "apple" beep sound when I run spellcheck not results at all?

    I have switched languages to french but get the "apple" beep sound when I run spellcheck not results at all?

    You need to select the text and apply:
    Inspector > Text > More > Language > Français
    So Pages knows what language to check it with. Language is like bold or color or font, it is part of the text style.

  • Midi Apple Loops sound different when dragged on to song

    When ever I drag a green midi loop from Apple Loops to my song it sounds different. All the effects are gone. I tried to put som reverb on it but it doesn't sound like it does wheyn played in the Apple Loops bar.
    How can I use the green midi loops from Apple Loops as they sound there with that effect. The blue audio Apple Loops works fine.
    I had this same problem in Logic Pro 9

    There are some differences between the audio file previews contained in the loop and the actual data, sometimes by error, sometimes intentionally so.
    For instance, if you preview an orchestral instrument, you hear it with reverb, as that's kinda how it's intended to sound, but when you drag it into Logic proper, you don't get reverb - because you will have one global reverb you send all the orchestral instrument too, rather than a hundred individual reverbs on each instrument.
    Stuff like that. It varies, but there's nothing broken as such.

  • Apple loops sound warblely

    When auditioning apple loops in LP8 from the loop browser I've noticed that some loops sound warblely, as if they are being stretched out too much, even when they are playing at the original tempo. What gives?

    I'm having a similar problem with my Ipod. When I put a cd in and listen to it, it sounds fine, but then when i import songs on to ITunes, the warble appears in the background for some odd reason. It also transfers on to the Ipod itself so that you can hear the warbling on the songs on the Ipod. Looked at a couple of pages that supposedly had solutions, but nothing helped. What should I do? Thanks!!!

  • Apple TV sound bad when home sharing from Itunes

    Hello All,
    When I go through the Apple TV menus to Computers and choose my library to play my music it sounds really bad. Almost a "tinny" or metallic sound and the voices sound faded back. Not sure how to fix this or if this is the best way to play my music through the TV. I do not have an airport yet (saving for a time machine) so I am running through a Verizon Fios wireless router. Not sure that is matters. Any help would be great. Thank
    RJ

    Check the menus to see if you have Sound Check enabled for audio - if so turn it off.
    Also, try streaming using Airplay to AppleTV from itunes (equalizer and other effects will be added).

  • Bought movie on iTunes can't AirPlay to Apple tv Sound but no picture

    Hi
    I have bought an apple tv today for the main use of buying movies.  I have it all connected and soon find out I can only rent not buy from the tv.  So I decided to buy from iTunes on my new iPad - the HD movie, with the intention of air playing it to my tv. This works with utube so shouldn't be an issue.
    Unfortunately I only get the sound no pictures come up at all.  How do I fix this?

    This seemed odd, since I rented the movie from the itunes store. And, in fact, once the downloading finished (it takes a long time on this old ipad( I tried again and the movie -audio and video - both appeared on my tv.

  • Apple TV sound is jumping every 3 or 4 seconds

    When mirroring from my Macbook to apple tv, it all works no problems, but about every three to 4 seconds there is like a 1-2 second skip (like a jumping dvd).  very frustrating.  Any ideas??   All software is up todate. 

    Having same issue.  Playing music from either my iPhone, my wife's iPhone, or my Macbook Pro is horrible.  Sounds like a broken record/CD.  It sounds like it's skipping and/or static.  The stream is being interrupted.  Does this when playing from iTunes, music app on iPhone, or Pandora.  Thought it might be my wifi connectivity but we have no problem streaming music through the iTunes store or Netflix. 
    All software up to date.

  • MP4 won't display on apple TV - Sound is working but no pictures

    I have converted some DVD's using Handbrake Software so I can watch them on Apple TV (using Handbrake's 'normal' default output settings).
    After converting them I added the files to itunes. When I play these files on the Macbook they are great - all good.
    When I then Synced with Apple TV the files are shown on the TV under the 'movies' menu with the names, duration and a photo of the film.
    But when I play them on Apple TV I only hear the sound - There is no pictures.
    Apple TV is connected with HDMI cable.
    Does anyone know what could be causing this to happen? All responses welcome...
    Cheers in advance!

  • Apple TV sound quit working...sometimes

    I have had great success over the last few months with my Apple TV.  All of a sudden it now will play the sound intermittently when streaming videos from itunes.  after i have the problem with a movie no sound is available until I put it into sleep mode.  Help!

    well....that didn't work.  in fact to add insult to injury, the menu clicks did not work again at start up, but half way through scrolling for movies they started.  When I selected a movie they stop again - along with any other sound
    This blows!!!!

  • Apple Tv sound dropout with optical cable

    First of all Merry Christmas to everybody out there...
    I received yesterday for christmas the latest apple TV.
    I connected it to my tv with HDMI cable and to hifi, bose home cinema lifestyle 28, with optical cable.
    Sound through HDMI cable is perfect but...playing music from macbook pro or iphone 4S through optical cable is a problem.
    I have sound drop outs for a second now and then...
    Cable is well attached on both sides...
    What do i have to do?
    Kind regards,
    Laurent

    I also have this problem...  Any ideas

  • HT4211 apple tv sound but no video

    I have audio but no video on my apple tv.  I can see "now playing" listed in the music category, and can hear the audio but cannot see the video. any advise what setting or problem causes this?

    If you are using Airplay to send something to AppleTV, many iOS apps only transmit sound due to restrictions.
    Alternatively are you not seeing anything on teh TV (menus etc) with AppleTV connected?
