Rob

System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers
Make sure Mute is not enabled.
If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone
in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.

NO AUDIO OUT PUT DEVICE

I DELETED MY AUDIO OUT PUT DEVICE BY ACCIDENT COS I HEARD STATIC IN THE SOUND AND NOW I HAVE NO SOUND THE LITTLE SPEAKER SYMBOL HAS A RED CIRCEL N AN X IN IT SAYING NO AUDIO OUT PUT INSTALLED IT CAME WITH MY LAP TOP N IM TOLD ITS A FREE DOWN LOAD BUT WHEN I GO TO REAL TEK SITES ITS ALL CONFUSING CAN ANYONE PLZ HELP AND WHERE ON THE PUTER TO I GO TO SEE WHAT VERSION OF WINDOWS IS ON IT

Hello mbradford1199. I understand that you are being told that you have no audio output device installed.
There are two possible soundcards for this notebook and each has its own driver. There is a Realtek device and a Contexant device. First try to install the Realtek device, here is a link. If that driver does not work for you I suggest trying the Contexant driver. Here is the link.
If neither of these drivers work I'd like to see if Windows is detecting a sound card at all. Try the following.
Click Start, type "Device Manager," and press Enter.
Do you have a "Sound, video, and game controller" section? If so, expand it.
List everything you see here.
I will keep an eye out for the results. Have a great day!
Please click the white star under my name to give me Kudos as a way to say "Thanks!"

Over riding "inbuilt audio" for the audio out put in the easy set up?

Hi all. I just got hold of Final Cut express and I can not get audio to come out of my external audio interface( MOTU 2408 III).
I have noticed that the default setting in the easy set up is for inbuilt audio.
How do I over ride this?
Thanks,
Spigg
PS Audio system setting is set for the MOTU... infact warning beeps are going through external... just not movie audio

Hi(Bonjour)!
Try the sound system extension SoundFlower:

How do i replace video without putting all of audio out of sync?

hello,
i am trying to replace a video clip with an alternative clip while keeping the original audio, but everytime i select a clip to replace, it does so but puts the audio out of sync starting from where i inserted the clip...help!
Thanks,
steven

First, go into iMovie/Preferences and make sure that the Advanced Tools are enabled.
Next drag and drop the alternate clip from the Event to the frame in the project where you want it to start. A pop-up menu will come up. Choose "Cutaway".

Optical audio out to receiver

Hello, I have a powermac g5 hooked up to a vsx-1014tx Pioneer receiver via digital optical audio. When I'm using dvd player and select "system sound output" in Dvd Player's preferences I get audio through the digital optical hookup and sound out of the speakers, but the receiver's display doesn't switch to DIGITAL (it displays whatever sound processor I select on the receiver such as dolby prologic II) i.e. the computer outputs 2 channel digital audio. When I switch to "digital out - built in audio" in Dvd Player's preferences, there is no sound output while watching a movie. The receiver flickers between DIGITAL and DD Prologic II. Is there anything that you know of that will allow me to get 5.1 Dolby Digital put out through the G5's optical audio out? (settings, audio codec, ect.)
P.S. I have software updated and in system preferences/sound I have digital out selected
Thanks for your help
Daron

Not sure if it will help resolve your issue, but you can make more detailed adjustments to the audio output using +Audio MIDI Setup+ utility, which is in your Utilities folder.

A/V Composite cable video but no audio out

I just bought a new A/V composite Apple cable for my iPhone. I plugged it in to an LCD tv when I got home, and it WORKED with all the videos I have on the iPhone. I then (without unplugging) tried to play a song from the iPhone (purchased from ITMS). No Sound out.
Then I went back and tried to play a video again. Video out, no sound out!
Then I tried several un plugs and replugs, I tried a full shutdown and reboot of the iPhone. All with no effect. Now pictures and video still go out, but no sound out of the cable.
Questions:
1) Does anyone have a solution to this? Cable wasn't stressed or anything-and works with a different iPod Nano.
2) Shouldn't the iphone put out audio through the A/V composite cable using it as an iPod?
3) Although the iPhone asks, when starting a video with the cable plugged in whether you want to play on TV or not, is there any selection that needs to be made to get audio out from song files (just ipod sound out?)
WSKCONDOR

*However, it doesn't explain why after returning to video the TV sound was still not present.*
If you mean you first tried to play an audio only file and then switched to an audio with video then it's most likely the TV was still shut down on that input. Try this (with the previous scenerio): after you're sure the iPhone is outputting both video and audio (with a movie, for example) just switch the TV inputs until you're back to that signal and I'll be it will show things again.
Once again, I think both the iPhone and the TV makers are culpable, but it's a shame the iPhone doesn't output the album art because this is what it does when you play it standalone. It just makes sense -- that fact it doesn't is a kind of "duh" (unless there are technical issues I just don't understand -- possible, even though I'm a programmer). But all of us who want this should go to feedback and post it and perhaps it will make it to the next release (I've asked for this about three times now).

I use Keynote on iPad2. Video out via composite AV cable, audio out through earphone socket. If I plug into the earphone socket first, then the AV cable - no sound. AV first, then earphone - sound. Anyone know why?

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

Digital audio out port

I am having a problem, quite opposite to what most of what I've read about Mac audio port issues online, concerning my audio-out port. I'm running an Intel Imac, 7,1, running OS 10.5.8. The specs do specify the audio port on this mac is dual; analog and digital output. Everything I've read to date relates to the red optical light being stuck on coming out of the audio port. My issue is that I CANNOT, and I emphasize that, get the red light to come on and thus use my optical cable (it's working on other equipment) and connect it to my AV receiver. I have never in the past even thought about using an optical cable so it never was an issue. In fact I never knew the port was dual. The external speaker and headphones work fine and the audio panel in the preference pane reflects that; either says 'internal speakers' or 'headphones' automatically when engaging/disengaging audio phone jack. When I put in my toslink (optical) cable, the panel goes to 'headphones' instead of 'optical out' or 'digital out'. There is never a provision to click on digital out on either the sound panel or the midi setup panel. I've tried everything I can click on at both panels. Audio Output in midi setup says 'master stream' (always greyed out) and Source- either 'headphones' or 'internal speakers'. The default and system output drop downs never give me a 'digital' or 'optical' option. Everything works fine except that I cannot get the red light to shine and cannot get digital out at all. Any ideas? Maybe something in terminal or in openfirmware screen? Thanks.

have you tried other speakers or headphones and what version bootcamp drivers are you using?

Does this port connect directly to appropriate digital speakers?
If so can someone recommend a decent set of digital speakers that will connect directly.
Or does the optical digital audio port connect to an amplifier or receiver and them to speakers?
With the suggestions i have below the set-up is like this:
Subwoofer - Connects to 2 (Stereo or technically 2.1) or 5 (5.1) speakers
The subwoofer connects to a control pod (which has the optical inputs, coax inputs, and analog inputs - atleast all 3 are on the z5500)
Digital/Optical Audio:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOSLINK
Suggested Speakers; I Personally have 2 pairs of the Z-5500 set, true high quality audio and variety of settings for whatever you use them for, i have been so pleased by them and their warranty service is by far the best ever, anything ever happens to them, theyll send you a replacement set, logitech/apple great customer service, i also posted a few other priced ones if youre not looking for a huge set up:

Compares a few models:

and some others in that same field:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/explorer/B00007AKDP/2/ref=pdcp_esexpl/104-4843690-8241552
And you're going to need a TOSLINK cable to go from the audio port to the back of the control pods; found a nice cheap one

Some of the audio out of my mac sounds as if there's a reverb effect on top

Mostly on videos, using VLC and quicktime it sounds as though there's a reverb/delay effect on top of the audio.. it's really annoying... haven't noticed it in any DAW's such as Ableton Live/Reason or Logic just in things like itunes,safari,vlc,quicktime.. it's quite strange

the problem persists no matter what i'm using. I've used my monitor pair(m-audio bx5a's), the inbuilt speakers and a pair of headphones...
I believe it has something to do with the inbuilt soundcard as when i attach an external soundcard to the bx5a's there is no reverb..
I just did a test two seconds ago.
Basically, i opened up ableton live (standard DAW) and put a kick drum beat on loop.
The output config was simply 'built in output'.
I first listened back on the monitors via the headphone out... bass drum has reverb on it.. out of nowhere?!
repeated the process with my headphones via the headphone-out .. same tail of reverb.. again out of nowhere.
I then repeated the process with just the inbuilt speakers.. again lots of tail..
Having done all this i attached my numark omni control midi controller which has an inbuilt sound card plugged the monitors into the output of the controller.. bass drum comes out clean as a whistle...
ugh.. hope there isn't some sort of sound card related dilemma..
being a music technology student facing this problem is both embarrassing and frustrating!!! not many people would notice it in the first place!!!
So far i've considered two possible reasons for my dilemma-
1. There's something wrong with my internal sound card
2. I've installed some piece of software or changed some setting within some random piece of software that's effected all of the audio out of the inbuilt card...
man alive, it's annoying whatever it is.

Is it possible to play iTunes audio out through USB to receiver to power speakers?

I thought you should be able to.Play iTunes audio out through USB to a receiver equipt with USB mode as I can with my iPad Air, but I can,t find in preferences on my 2013 iMac any out put and I get no signal to the receiver/amp. Is it possible? What am I doing wrong?

Yes
A 3.5mm to RCA cable or adapter will work fine for stereo between the Mac's headphone jack and receiver's RCA input.
for example's
> http://www.amazon.com/RiteAV-3-5mm-Stereo-Female-Cable/dp/B0018MI5F6
> http://www.amazon.com/C2G-Cables-40645-Stereo-Adapter/dp/B000J1H4VI/
Additionally if your receiver is equipted with digital input, you could use a Toslink cable with a 3.5mm adapter on the Mac end.

No audio out

I have had my ZEN Microphoto for about year and i had dropped it from about 6 feet up in the air onto hard tile on accident. It stopped outputting audio through the headphone jack. Is there anying i can do to fix it or should i just by a new player?

I think I'm not writing clear...I apologize... I've played with the Garageband and have recorded several times. My setup is...The Firepod is connected by Firewire to the Macbook Pro. I do get audio if I connect my headphone to the headphone jack on the Firepod. (I'm under the impression It's audio from the Firepod not the mix from the laptop?) I have a stereo adaptor to the headphone jack of the Mac going to the INPUT to the Presonus M4 multi headphone plug from there I'm not getting audio. (nor audio if I put my headphones on the Mac) The same unit Presonus M4 AUDIO OUT is connected to my Alesis Monitors.
I could swear that's how it was before I switched laptops...all I did was disconnect the firewire and the headphone adaptor.
*If I change Audio Driver in Garageband preferences it cancels out the Firepod. I have been using the Presonus M4 for all the recordings...
Is there any sequence of tests I can try to pinpoint the problem?
Thanks All and I really APOLOGIZE for being so ignorant on this subject.

Head phone/audio out jack location

This is feedback for Apple. I was not able to find any specific place on the apple web site to send feedback so I'm putting it here.
I have new 27 inch iMac. I love it.
One little niggle: I have a frequent need to plug and unplug my head phones. Having the only jack located on the back is a pain. If you could place a head phone jack discreetly on the lower left or right side, or on the bottom, of the case it would be much simpler to access.
If it is possible to change the output from internal speakers to headphone (audio out) via software that would also be good. Then I would never have to unplug the headphone, just switch them on and off via preferences as desired.

iMic Works great.
I found this web page
http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20050614171126634
and used the Applescript by RobLewis to toggle between the internal and iMic system (you need to change the two property items to the words used in your System Preferences Sound Output). I have saved the Applescript as an App so I just need to click on it in the Dock to toggle the sound system.
Now if only I could toggle Front Row between internal and external displays in the same Applescript...
I currently use TV Row for selecting the display for Front Row:

Assigning digital Spidf in / out put in logic LE using TC KONNEKT 24 D

hi there..
i know LE doesnt support digital in/out puts but ive been told i have to configure is manually through my KONNECT 24d audio interface.. that i have no clue how to configure and assign these in/out puts... if any one knws how to do that .. many thanx in advace
regards

hi there,
ALL i want to do it route voice works using chanel 9/10 and i got an answer from TC. but im still clueless i must b thick!!
Dear Nazeer,
Setting this up of course depends on how everything is cabled.
If you set it up via spdif you should send and recieve via channels 9-10. You can ofcourse do the same analog with channels 3-4. Express unfortunately does not have the I/O plugin, so you will need to do all the routing manually as with the Konnekt. The exclamation mark is a sample slip indicator. Make sure that the Konnekt is setup to be the sync master, and not the VoiceWorks.
I hope this helped. If you have any specific questions on the subject you are welcome to update this incident.
regards

Out put to Blu-Ray?

I am finally ready to out put my 80 min. documentary to DVD for selling at film festivals.
Do I go with Blue_Ray? If I do with the cheeper DVD will it be in HD?
Do people without a Blu-Ray player get the benefit of a Blu-Ray disc?

Excerpts from the DVDSP User Manual:
Building the Project
Once you have set the prebuild disc properties, you can build your project. Depending on the size of your project and the speed of your computer and disk drives, this process can take several hours to finish.
To build your project:
Do one of the following:
• ClickBuild in the toolbar.
• Press Option-Command-C.
Select the drive and folder to build to in the dialog that appears, then click Open.
The build process begins and a progress bar appears that shows the element names currently being compiled. If the selected folder already has a folder of the same type it is generating (VIDEO_TS or HVDVD_TS), see “Incremental Builds” for details on the dialog that appears.
The Build Files for SD Projects
Once the build for your SD project starts, DVD Studio Pro creates two folders at the location you specified: an AUDIO_TS folder and a VIDEO_TS folder. Additionally, a third folder, JACKET_P, is created if you have assigned a jacket picture graphic.
The AUDIO_TS folder is used by systems authoring DVD-Audio titles. To meet the DVD specification requirements, DVD Studio Pro creates the folder and leaves it empty. The empty folder is included in the format process.
This is NOT rocket science... It is simple and relatively fast. If you have a Mac that was built in the last decade it will take less than an hour for an 80-minute show.
good luck
