Audio problem with boot camp when I connect my windows 7 macbook pro to HDTV

I have windows 7 32 bits installed on my macbook pro and I setup boot camp 4. When I connect my macbook pro to HDTV using mini display cable, the audio doesn't work. Although I set the default sound device to digital audio? help please!

I've found that jiggling with the audio connection to my Mac Pro when running in Boot camp, I get audio OK. I don't understand why -- because I always get audio when running in Leopard.

Problems with Boot Camp - PLEASE HELP!

I'm having problems with Boot Camp. Here's what's happening. I ran Boot Camp Assistant, partitioning a 32GB BOOTCAMP drive. I insert my copy of XP and start the installation. My MBP restarts and boots into the Windows Setup. I let it run through the initial actions. I press ENTER to proceed, F8 to accept the license agreement, then when I get to the part where I should be able to select the Partition 3 BOOTCAMP drive (as it says in the Apple Boot Camp Manual) there is only a Partition 1 Unknown drive. It is the only drive to choose from and its a C: drive. I can't figure out why after I run boot camp the partitioned drive doesn't appear as an option in the windows installation. Please help!!!

Boot into Leo, start Disk Utility and you should see two partitions, your Leo partition and a Fat32 partition of 32GB at the end of the drive.
If not, boot camp didn't create it for some reason. If it is there then check it with DU and make sure its OK.
While your in there give it a name so you can easily identify it in your windows installer.
If there is no partition, create one using Disk Utility at the END if the drive. make sure you create it as a msdos (Fat32) partition and give it a name. The name cannot be more than 11 characters must be comprised of numbers and/or letters (no special characters).
Verify it before exiting DU.
Put in windows install disk, reboot - hold option key after the chime until you see the boot screen - select windows CD to begin install.
Don't forget to install Leo windows drivers after installing windows.

Hi ChristianHelpplz,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It seems like your iPod touch is not recognized by iTunes on your Mac, but your iPhone 6 is working normally.
I recommend starting with these steps to troubleshoot your iPod touch and connection with your Mac:
Check your USB connections
Unplug other USB devices from your Mac and try again.
Try a different USB port.
Try a different USB cable.
Restart your device
Restart your iOS device or reset your iPod.
Restart your Mac
Turn your Mac off and back on.
Update your software
Check for software updates on your Mac.
Check for an iTunes update.
Check your security software
If you have security software installed, learn how to resolve issues between iTunes and your security software.
From:
If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac - Apple Support
If you've tried these steps and your iPod touch is still not recognized, try placing it into Recovery Mode next:
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Sincerely,
Jeremy

Can't have sound on my TV when I connect it on my MacBook Pro 2011, with the HDMI adaptor

Can't have sound on my TV when I connect it on my MacBook Pro 2011, with the HDMI adaptor.
On SOUND preferences, I don't have the option for chosing HDMI on the OUTPUT sound.

Do you have another HDMI port that you can switch to on the TV? Is the tv source on the matching HDMI port with the volume up? After checking those try the following:

I have a problem with my motherboard and my battery of my 2010 macbook pro 13". It was just serviced with a new screen, keyboard, and logic board.

I have a problem with my motherboard and my battery of my 2010 macbook pro 13". It was just serviced with a new screen, keyboard, and logic board. How much will a new battery and motherboard cost and would it be worth it or should I just get a new computer. It was about 300 dollars to get it serviced last week. if it adds up to much past 600 dollars I will just get a new one. THANKS FOR ANY HELP!
P.S During classes today it began beeping in my bag. Like three kind of long steady beeps then a short pause, and when I opened it I couldn't see anything but it was on so I turned it off and back on.

Depends on what options your Apple store offers - if they can do a depot repair (where they send it out), that's around $300 for all parts & labor.
If the store doesn't have that option, a logicboard is around $600, battery $80-$100, from what I've seen.
If they JUST replaced the logicboard, you absolutely should NOT have to pay for another replacement - the replacement is covered by a warranty. If they want you to pay for it, make sure you have a copy of the receipt for the work that was recently completed so you can show it to them. They have no reason to charge you for another logicboard.

Recently when I connect Iphone 4s and MacBook Pro my computer stopped see new photos on Dropbox.

Recently when I connect Iphone 4s and MacBook Pro my computer stopped see new photos on Dropbox. I have changed iCloud password on Mac and Iphone, nothing. Deleted some pictures of iPhone, didn't help. Any ideas what I did to mess this up?

I cannot deleted. Computer keep telling that my dropbox is open. Don't see how to shot it off. Do I need to delete all pictures from dropbox first and delete application after. Will I loose all these pictures? Usually, I copy all photos to iphoto app.

I recorded 1 hour and 6 minutes of footage on my Kodak Zi8 Camera in WVGA mode. When I connect it to my Macbook Pro, the .MOV file that it creates is only 59 mintues. I can still view the full footage on the camera itself. I just can't export it. HELP!!!!

So it is cutting off the end at 59 minutes? How large is the file that is being exported? You may be running up against a file size limitation.

Problem with Boot Camp - Help!!

Hi everyone,
So I just got a new MacBook and installed Windows XP Home Edition through Bootcamp. I followed the computer certification guidelines of my college (so that I can connect to the network), i.e., I installed Symantec Antivirus and Windows Defender (required), and also Firefox and MS Office, and for good measure, I installed AdAware and Spybot (both free versions). I did not use the internet at all and scanned the totally-unadultered computer, deleting the very few things that popped up on Adaware and Spybot.
However, the very next morning, Windows Explorer kept getting closed by "Data Execution Prevention" every time I tried to start Windows. (It says, "Instruction at 'Ox8bb9ed475' referenced memory at 'Ox8b9ed465'. Memory could not be 'written'".) Essentially, I can't use Windows and no amount of restarting remedies this.
I took my MacBook to the Genius Bar at an Apple store and they said the problem was most likely Symantec Antivirus - apparently, Symantec has lots of problems with Bootcamp; they also recommended using Parallels instead. But since Penn requires Symantec to certify a computer, I don't know what to do about this (not to mention Windows won't run anyway)! To be sure, the Apple guys were very rushed and seemed to be speculating, so I'm not sure how to take their advice.
Does anyone know what might be wrong? I remember reading that some current students at my school run Bootcamp just fine, and the tech dept. suggests using it as well. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated; I just don't want problems to occur once I start classes. Thanks so much.

Perhaps you should post this question in the Boot Camp forum rather than here. This is not the proper forum for dealing with Boot Camp or Windows installation problems.
I would consider reinstalling Windows. After verifying that it is working you can install Symantec AntiVirus and Defender, but I would not install anything else until you are sure the system is working properly. Note that you must turn off antivirus programs when you install new software. Failing to do so can result in defective installations.
Be sure you have carefully read the Boot Camp documentation before installing anything.

I have a problem with boot camp and maybe macbook pro?

I am having issues with boot camp here is what I did.
I attempted to partition for windows then this message popped up after 2 minutes:
Verification failed. this disk could not be partitioned.
Use Disk Utility to repair this disk.
so I used the disk utility to repair the problem then this message came:
First Aid failed
Disk Utility stopped verifying “Macintosh HD” because the following error was encountered:
The underlying task reported failure on exit

The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.

So let me explain something. I just got the macbook pro put some music on it and pictures. so what do I do to fix this problem? please let me know.

Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
If you are unable to repair the drive then you will need to reformat the drive using Disk Utility. Of course this will erase all your files so have a backup before you start.
Basic Backup
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
5. PsynchX 2.1.1 and RsyncX 2.1 (Freeware)
6. Carbon Copy Cloner (Freeware - 3.0 is a Universal Binary)
7. SuperDuper! (Commercial)
The following utilities can also be used for backup, but cannot create bootable clones:
1. Backup (requires a .Mac account with Apple both to get the software and to use it.)
2. Toast
3. Impression
4. arRSync
Apple's Backup is a full backup tool capable of also backing up across multiple media such as CD/DVD. However, it cannot create bootable backups. It is primarily an "archiving" utility as are the other two.
Impression and Toast are disk image based backups, only. Particularly useful if you need to backup to CD/DVD across multiple media.

Problem with boot camp and windows 8

I have a Macbook late 2009 with Mountain Lion. I want to install windows 8 with boot camp but when I am asked to enter drivers, windows 8 don't find them. I have downloaded drivers from boot camp assistant but they don't work. When Apple will provide ???

Obviously Boot Camp does not support Win 8 at this time. When and IF Apple decides to do that no one here knows. This is a user to user forum. Perhaps you should call Apple support and ask them.

HT3777 Leopard 10.6.8 with Boot Camp 3 do not support Windows XP SP2???

Hello!
I have my MacBook Pro with Leopard 10.6.8 with Boot Camp 3 on it.Reading a BOOT CAM article I could see that it supports Windows XP SP2.I just installed Windows XP SP2...and when I am trying to use the drivers from MAC DVD it says that BOOT CAMP needs Windows 7.Why I can not use XP?Or where I can get the proper drivers?

Your saying BC 3.4 is on the Mac installer disk? I picked mine up in august 2011 and it only has 3.1 on it if I remember right. How did you check it?
As of today my BC Assistant says 3.4 but the Control panel in Windows only says 3.3, I figure it an't broke I'm not worried about it.
When you insert the disk, it asks you what to do, Run or Open, select Open.
Make a new folder on the desktop in XP, drag ALL the files over to it.
Right click on the setup.exe and select one of the options:
1)-Troubleshoot Compatibility, do what it suggests,
2)-Select Properties / Compatibility / click Run this program in Compatibility mode: then select XP sp2 and work your way up.
If anything pops up about permissions then right click on it again and select Run as Administrator.
If it still won't work then open the Boot Camp folder / Drivers folder / and install each one manually.

Problem with Boot Camp internet connection

I use Boot Camp only for playing games, and everything is working perfectly except for my internet connection.
That is, it works perfectly for some time then without any apparent reason it just loses connection.
It usually works for about 2 hours, then simply disconnects, without offering any explanation.
A restart solves this problem for another couple of hours, then it disconnects again.
This is quite bothersome when trying to play an MMO for any extended period of time.
I am connected to the internet via router that is directly plugged into the iMac and don't have any problems on OS X.
I'm running Windows 7 on Boot Camp and everything is working perfectly except for this.
Anyone have similar problems or any idea what this might be and how to solve it?
Thanks.

Ever figure this out?

Problems with Boot Camp, OSX Lion Server 10.7.3, and Windows 7

My new Mac Mini Server is running OSX Lion Server 10.7.3. I want to install Windows 7 as a dual boot. I start up Boot Camp and use an ISO image to create a USB boot disk. I don't seem to be able to use the DVD to install, so I use an ISO image on disk. I continue with the Boot Camp installation, with all three options on the main screen checked. When I get to the part where I have to pick a partition on which to install, the only one I can select, and must format, is the partition labeled BOOTCAMP. But the Boot Camp support software Windows is installed there. I can continue with the Windows installation, and boot into Windows 7 with no problem. But since the Boot Camp drivers were wiped out, I cannot connect to the network, etc. I don't have a Boot Camp control panel either.I did this once before on my other Mac Mini Server I have, running the same OSX Lion Server 10.7.3, and it worked without a problem. I'm writing this message on that copy of Windows. But this new install just will not work, after two days of trying. I *must* get this working. I'm stumped.
CAN ANYONE HELP ??? TIA !!!!

First, this is re-post of your other thread.
Your driverrs were not and will not be "wiped out."
Run Boot Camp Assistant. Download the drivers
Your profile says Lion so that will let you store drivers on flash memory card.
They are never placed where Boot Camp created a partition.

Problems with Boot Camp 2.1 update & Heat Generation with new MBP

After spending a lot of time debating whether to go with a high-end mac or high end PC, I eventually went with a top spec MBP (17” 2.93 ghz). This was a difficult decision to make, not to mention expensive.
I figured - the Mac was the winner although lower spec then a similar priced PC it had a major advantage – to run Windows XP (which I use for some creative and recreational purposes).
I am now very frustrated and angry – the peace of mind, stability and straightforward Mac ideals that I admire have been non existent so far. It has been extremely stressful!
Problem 1 – when setting up boot camp I wanted to go with the NTFS option, so I partioned 50 gig of space. But after choosing this, the only confirmation option that was displayed was for FAT so I was left wondering if that was correct? (I was very slow and methodically following instructions).
*Problem 2* – After boot camp was set up, there was not Ethernet driver in the Boot Camp / OS Install Disk so I couldn’t connect to the net. It is just lucky one of my neighbours has an unsecured wireless network that I ‘hopped’ onto, to download the driver.
*Problem 3* – HEAT!!! when running an old spec video game (Unreal Anthology) the MBP became incredibly HOT. So much so that I had to stop after a few minutes because it was clear that damage was being caused. I have since read on other discussions that this is a problem many other MBP users running boot camp are experiencing.
*Problem 4* – I downloaded the Boot Camp 2.1 update hoping this would help, but all it did was cut all the sound and disable the keyboard apple keys. I had to uninstall boot camp then reinstall the older version to get the sound back (no ethernet connection again!)
I am extremely upset – I feel I have been miss sold. I brought the Mac with Apples reassurances (and their sales patter of ‘oh yeah, your windows programs will work better on a mac’) only to find this is NOT THE CASE.
I hope I have been doing something wrong, because then I can sleep better knowing I have just spent a lot of money on the right tool I need for my job. At the moment I have a nasty feeling of painful regret and stress – everything I hoped to avoided when buying a mac.
If any apple support people or other users can help I would really appreciate any feedback you may have. Thanks in advance…

Hi I too just bought a MacBook Pro 2 weeks ago. I settled on a Mac as I had so much problems running Mac OS on my Dell laptop.
I had OS 10.5 running on my work Dell Latitude D520, it was not a hack but a genuine retail version of Leopard. But I had issues with the keyboard / track pad not working, so I had to use external keyboard / mouse. Not fun on a laptop.
I’m now running OS 10.5.6 and XP 64 bit on my MacBook Pro. I chose XP 64 bit so I can take advantage of the 64bit CPU and the 4 Gig of RAM in my MacBook Pro.
It took me 2 days to get all the drivers to work properly well I say all, the bluetooth does not work but I don’t use bluetooth so don’t really care.
I chose XP 64 bit over Vista 64 bit as Visa is the worst OS Microsoft have come up with to date.
*If any Apple guys is looking at this please let me know if Apple will ever produce XP 64 drivers, I think I’m not the only one interested in the drivers.*
Nick9000 with regard to your problems.
Problem 1
The Mac will only format FAT32 as it cannot write NTFS only read it. You need to choose NTFS when you are installing from the Windows CD, you can still convert your FAT32 system to NTFS within Windows.
Problem 2
I had the same problem but then I was using a non-supported OS.
Problem 3
My laptop runs a bit hot at times but to me all laptops run hot maybe more so Mac laptops. You are running the 2.93 GHz so I guess it does run hotter than my 2.66 GHz.

Problem with boot camp

Hi, how are you all
I have a problem since 3 months
I tried something in boot camp and ended up doing something wrong
Now every time I want to start my iMac I need to hold alt and choose MAC, or else it will take me to black screen that shows "no driver found to boot...."
I thought it wasn't that big deal, I don't need windows anymore, and it is not that hard to hold alt key while imac starts
but today I tried to install windows, because I upgraded ram to 12gb and wanted to try them, but I couldn't
I did devoid the hard disk successfully, but when I want to install windows 7 the computer restart, this is normal I know, but then it takes me to the white screen again where I can either hold down alt button and it will take me back to snow leopard, or don't hold any key which will take me again to that black screen I mentioned before
This is really frustrating
I live in UAE so there is no apple store here, and no offense but every authorized apple reseller has stupid people that don't know a bit about MAC, just hired to sell with no knowledge, I asked them about the problem and no one knew what I was talking about and brought the imac and no one knew how to solve it.
So hopefully ill find answer here
Please if you know the answer tell me, want to try the RAM
Thanks, Ahmad
