Audio out via 30 pin on iPad 2

Does anyone know if the internal speaker will still work when you use a 30 pin cable and grab audio out off pins 3 &4? If so which cable works? Bought a 30pin to USB/audio out 3.5mm that kills the internal speaker. Using iPad 2. Thanks

No, the speakers do not work while the audio is sent out through the dock connector.

Audio out via USB plays briefly , then shuts off

Hi,
I'm running version 10.4.11 on my iMac. I'm sending audio out via usb to an audio device (dac), the audio will play for a while and then just quit. This happens using iTunes or another music player I have on the iMac. This problem is recent, I have been doing this for about a year with no previous problems. Could an OS X update have caused a problem with the usb audio output? Anyone else experiencing this issue? It's become quite aggravating.
Thanks!

Yes.

Audio out via USB

Mac mini audio out port was working on and off. No cause found. So thinking of other alternatives for audio out.
Is it possible to get audio output via USB such that I can connect it to my Hi-Fi?

Yes.

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.

Multiple audio-outs via USB or Firewire?

I'm looking for a hardware solution for my mid-2010 MBP w/ 2-4 audio outputs via USB or Firewire. On the software side, I want to have multiple media players open and playing simultaniously, but each output separately. I was told m-audio makes devices that allow this, but I am curious which may be the cheapest with this capability - or alternate manufacturers.

I think you'd have better luck going to the m-audio forums and asking your question.

It would be hit or miss to find someone here who's an expert on your issue. Also, you might post your question to the Logic Studio forum here:

There are a lot of sound people there who might point you in the right direction with a MacBook Pro.

Xserve audio out via Optical?

Hi,
I am a bottom feeder of Apple goods, which has been a successful strategy for me for decades.
I am using an Xserve (Late '06), running snow leopard server to host a lot of different services (DNS,Mail,Files,Video,Audio, Etc).
Lately I have been thinking about adding a home theater. Since my movie's are residing on the Xserve, I was thinking I would love use that to push my TV and (wait for it) my audio.
So, obviously, the xserve has no audio out. I have been exploring the various options to get this working, with limited success. I have an old Onkyo USB based Stereo out box, which works great for stereo.
I purchased the generic looking Sewell USB Sound Box (which can be viewed in all it's glory here: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004Y0ERRO/ref=pe_175190_21431760_M3T1_SC_dp_1)
This box works well for what it is (ie cheap), BUT it appears it is only able to drive the 5.1 setup through analog from unencoded sources. So, if you have a file on your mac that is a 5.1 audio file it will play fine through this USB Box. BUT any encoded content (Like any real media playback) doesn't work.
So, to make a long story short, I need to find a way to get the raw audio from my xServe to an optical connector, and then to a Surround receiver.
IS THERE ANY know solution to go from USB or FW to Optical audio on a Mac? The Sewell Box and MANY others have this feature, but the software to switch it on isn't available for OSX.
Thanks for ideas,
Marty
PS I did already upgrade the video card in my xserve with a flashed PC Radeon HD2600Pro.

you could install xbmc for mac on another box and connect it to your TV
and use it to stream movies music etc from the xserve
as well as airplay from IOS devices
Xbmc is free

Any way to get audio out via RCA or 3.5mm jack?

I am interest in using AppleTV in a section of a fitness studio that I own.
The room has a pro audio A/V system with sound inputs via Bluetook, RCA or 3.5mm earphone jack. The 2 TV monitors are daisy-chained and receive inputs via HDMI.
However, if I want to have the audio portion of an AppleTV program played through the sound system, I need to feed audio into it using one of the inputs noted above. This isn't a problem with a Mac or iPad because I can use both HDMI and 3.5mm jacks to accomplish the goal. I could just turn up the TVs, but that isn't a great sound option given the setting and the other equipment.
Is there any way to jury-rig an audio output that works?
Might I be better off using a sling box to an iPad or a Macbook? I am already paying for cable TV as part of my Xfinity plan.
Thanks,
Scott

Something like this Digital Audio To Analog Audio Converter ... from Amazon will do the trick.
Search for audio digital to analog converter for other options.

Help with 5.1 Audio Out via TosLink Optical Cable

My Mac mini is connected a Vizio 5.1 sound bar with a TosLink optical cable. In the Sound preference pane, the name of the device for sound output is "Digital Out". However, when I go into Audio Midi Setup, the Built-In Output shows "0 in/2 out", and if I click the Configure Speakers button, I only have the option to choose "Stereo" from the Multichannel pull-down menu (regardless of the Format I choose).
Why doesn't my Mac mini recognize my sound bar as a surround sound-capable device and send it a 5.1 audio signal?

I'm not sure I completely understand the solution described in your link, but I followed the instructions and it did not solve my problem. I think one issue is that I'm not given the option in the Format pull-down menu to select anything other than 2-channel audio.

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.

Audio out - audio in via personality card to capture internet streaming ?

I'm trying to capture internet radio programming using my beige G3 with the A/V personality card.
Can I just loop the audio out (via miniplug and/or RCA plugs) to the audio in (via miniplug and/or RCA plugs) to capture/record internet radio ?
The sound comes out of the audio board just fine to my speakers, and the audio in works just fine with an external radio.
Is there any danger (like frying computer) is just trying it ?
I'm using OS 9.1 and Toast 5 Titanium.
Thanks for your time!

Hey Bruce!
There's no need to even go that far with getting copies of your streams.
If you go to http://www.panic.com/audion/ and DL the Audion 3 for OS9 (don't forget to get the serial #, it unlocks it entirely), it's now free. (YAY!!)
Unlike iTunes, it has a recording function, that can make .aiff's or .mp3's, then you get an editor to clip the tracks apart into the separate songs. Works like a charm.
Also, the station tracker is still compatible with Shoutcast and set to maximum you can get a 1,000 streams - waay more than the presets in iTunes. Give it a lot of memory if you're going to take the BIG gulp on the stations though.. can run a bit flonky at times if you don't.
Have fun!
Deb.

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:

Multiple audio outputs - HDMI & Audio out

Hi all,
This is driving me a little nuts, so any help greatly appreciated! With the new Mac Mini models, you can have audio out via HDMI or the line out. I am thinking to hook the mini up to an LCD TV/monitor via HDMI (sound on the monitor) and also to my other TV/sound system via the mini DP and audio out.
I assume when the mini turns on it'll activate both displays (if they are turned on), and from what I understand you can have two displays running. I'd only want one at a time so I'd have the other display switched off. But can the mini output audio to either both, or whichever system I am using? I've read a lot of posts but can't find a definite answer. I only want audio (and video for that matter, but can turn off other screen) to one TV at a time, but do I have to go into the OS audio settings each time I want to swap between the two?
I'm also thinking of using Plex and keeping it open at all times, just sleeping the mini when not in use. Can the mini only output to one source, requiring manual switching to the other (i.e. going from HDMI to audio out)?
Thanks for your help!!

I would consider using a switcher for the video. And use the osx sound output selection to change the audio.

Does ATV2 need a particular cable for Audio out?

Hi
I'm attempting to run ATV2 to a Sony STR-DH520 Receiver and my TV
TV is fine on the HDMI but audio out via an optical cable is failing
Do I need a particular type of cable? - I picked up a cambridge audio D321 in the store where I got the reciever
Thanks

Also check your settings for your receiver to ensure it is set for the audio from it's optical audio input. Some receivers use both an analog and digital for one input or allow you to set the digital in to any one of it's input settings.

Audio out of AirPlay port using apple Tv ad iPad

If I use AirPlay to play from my iPad to my Apple TV, via the Airport Express, can I get audio out of the port on the AirPlay?

No. This would be airplaying to multiple devices at once using an iOS device. You can do this though in iTunes on a Mac if you have to.

I bought a 3rd ipad for my daughter in CA. I synced w/my PC to load some apps since she has no PC. Now I am in Iraq with PC and my iPad. If I buy my her iTunes gift cards, can she buy apps and music w/out using my pin and charging to my Credit card?

I bought another iPad for my daugther. Because she has no PC, I loaded her iPad with apps from My PC. Now she is in Oceanside CA. And I am in Iraq with my iPad and PC.. My question is: How can my daughter load some apps of her own? If I buy her iTunes gift cards, can she redeem them on her iPad with out using my Pin number (as that would give her access to my credit card)! I prefer to gifted her purchases, not allow her to purchase with access to my credit card. Can this be done?

well if the ipad is on your itunes account then her apps and music etc will be billed to you. but if you give her gift cards you should take off your credit card because itunes won't tell you when you are all through with your gifted money and are back to useing your credit card until after you have made a purchase
