Audio wants to default to airplay

I have an Mbox 2 with pro tools 11 and other sound DAWs on my MAC. I lost my output sound yesterday and have restared my computer many times and went into set up many times to finally find my problem. I have apple TV and it seems that my MAC wants to defalt to Airplay as the output, where as I want to use my Digidesign Mbox 2.
How do I set the defaut in setting so that my input and output is my Digidesign Mbox 2?

I redownloaded Ver 33.1 and the same problem showed up. The learn more link called out something called Search Settings Toolbar, which I could find nowhere.
Going through Troubleshooting Tips, I Reset (the brand new d/l'ed version of) FF and the problem (so far) has gone away.
This gives me little confidence in the process. Does anyone have a clue what's going on? Has Yahoo paid to take over the world?

  • I want to create an airplay whole house audio system

    I want to build a multi-zone whole house airplay audio system.  I used airplay very successfully at my old house and love the ability to independentaly control different airplay devices with the Remote app on my iphone. 
    So, here is what I have in my new (old) house.  There are 10 pairs of speakers in various rooms throughout the house.  I'd like to create 10 different airplay zones utilizing 10 Airport Expresses and a multi channel amp.  I'd use the audio out on each express to feed the amp.  What I don't know is if I can place 10 airport expresses right next to each other without the wifi going crazy.  I thought about running CAT5 to that location and putting in a switch and feeding the extremes via CAT5 and disabling the wifi. 
    Any suggestions if the above would work in a wifi configuaration?  I'm thinking I should go CAT5 though and disable wireless.
    Thoughts?
    Thanks in advance.

    You guys are ON IT!  This is what I did with the Airport Express product:
    http://www.inwallblog.com/wp/apple-airport-express/
    It's only one zone but it's what got me started.
    With that multi-zone amp, the AirPlay feature really starts to shine.  6 Airports plugged into that amp and you've got full control with all your rooms from your iPhone....how cool is that!
    The only downside I can see is that you need multiple iTunes libraries running at the same time to listen to something different.  Or you could have the music downloaded onto your phone.  Or you could use Apple Match.  Or....oh meh gosh, I think I'm an AppleFanBoy. 

  • Audio is not working for airplay.

    Audio is not working for airplay. I tried changing the audio output in system preferences to Apple TV both before and after turning on Air Play as suggested in earlier discussion threads. That did not work.

    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

    Hi,
    Try saving your settings as a Preset by clicking the Preset drop down and then select Save Current Settings as a Preset.
    Next try changing the settings by selecting the saved preset.
    That allow saving the settings for a specific printer, I assume it may also allow selecting these settings for another printer.

  • Known issue: Cortana does not play audio through the default playback device (Windows 10 Insider Preview SDK and tools, April 2015 release)

    When getting audio feedback from Cortana on a device with multiple playback endpoints (e.g., a device with a headset and an internal speaker), the playback may occur on the incorrect device. For example, Cortana may not send audio to the default device
    after the default has been changed in the control panel.

    There is no workaround for this issue.

  • I am having difficulty updating my iphone apps. Living in Bermuda it keeps wanting to default to the Bermuda store, which does not exist. I turned off the location services which appears to solve this problem, but I use this function a lot so do not want

    I am having difficulty updating my iphone apps. Living in Bermuda it wants to default to a nonexistant Bermuda app store. I solved by turning off the location finder, but this is a function I use and need, and dont want the hassle of constantly switching back and forth. Is there a simple solution

    I agree. I don't rely on iCloud as a backup, that is what I have my portable hard drive for. Its 500 GB so I can hold my entire iTunes library several times over on it. I have all my movies on my hard drive, but somehow "The Mist" got deleted off of my hard drive, so I figured "Well, the option to redownload an already purchased movie is available through iCloud, I'll just do that!"
    And permissions and download availability have nothing to do with it, the movie's still there, it still allows me to redownload it. The only problem is when I click download, I get that message.
    And nobody else uses my computer, but I do have multiple accounts authorized on it. Even still though, I am attepmpting to download it through the account I purchased it under. :/

  • How do I set up stereo audio tracks as default in Premiere using the ProRes 422 codec?

    Forgive me if this has been asked many times before. I have searched but can't find anything that explains it in language that doesn't require an advanced degree in computer engineering.
    I am a recent convert for our beloved FCP 7. I am learning to love Premiere dearly - but the audio part of it drives me nuts.
    I have exported from FCP a series of files as ProRes 422 movies with stereo audio tracks. I want to bring them into Premiere in the same way. But when I do it squashed everything into a single audio file.
    This plays havoc with the panning - especially in mixes that have stereo music mixes. Apart from that it just confuses me.
    Also. when I create a new project from scratch in Premiere and I select the custom ProRes 422 setting it only allows ProRes 422 mono audio. I don't see a codec for anything else (ie. stereo).
    Am I missing something?
    I have looked in all the preferences areas and can't find anywhere to change this. I just want to be able to import simple, basic two track audio (and have it show up the same)  as I would in FCP, ProTools and the myriad other editing programs I use.
    I also want to be able to set up a basic two track stereo timeline/sequence without having to reinvent the wheel.
    Many thanks for any help and your patience. I am slowly tearing my hair out and spending long periods sitting in the corner hugging my knees and weeping.
    My specs. Preferred editing codec: ProRes 422
    Premiere pro version CS6 (6.05)
    Thanks again.

    Go to the Project Panel, select all clips and rightclick/modify/audio channels.
    Set it to 2 tack and mono.
    When you drop the clip onto the timeline the stereo will come in on two tracks.
    You can also set this to default in the Preferences under Audio (before importing the clips) (Stereo set to mono).

  • Setting External Audio Interface as default output

    Hi.
    I have a MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion 1.8.5 with the following audio output options:
    Built-In Output
    MOTU UltraLite Audio Interface
    Bluetooth speaker.
    I have the UltraLite setup as my default  for "Use this device for sound output" and "Play alerts and sound effects through this device". And it works flawless. On occassion I have to play the audio to the Bluetooth speaker. And that works great too. However if I turn off the spearker the Mac defaults back to "Built-In Output". How can I set it to default back to the UltraLite instead? (Ps-I don't mind messing with files deep in the system).
    Thanks,

    Hi.
    I assume you created WAD template.
    In this WAD you inserted 2 webitems:
    1. analysis item with dataprovider assigned to your query
    2. chart item with the same dataprovider
    If so you should set, as mentioned above, HIDDEN for analysis item (analysis item shows you query data - table) and VISIBLE fro chart item.
    So by default your report data will be hidden and chart visible.
    If you want to switch within WAD you should create any button "show/hide table" and attach command "SET_WEBITEM_PROPERTIES" and set visible for analysis item.
    Regards.

  • How to play audio file in default player in j2me

    Hi ,
    I would like to implement Audio Streaming in Mobile application. I am record the voice using amr format and store
    local mobile memory and retrieve and play the file successfully, what is my requirements is, when i was play the
    file , i want to open the file in any default player in the mobile, the forward and backward control are use the default
    player control. is it possible to play the file in default player in j2me. please reply soon.
    With Regards,
    Ganesh Kumar
    Edited by: tlgkumar on Oct 23, 2008 11:55 AM

    Hi Ganesh,
    my suggestion to u is use existing streaming protocol that already support by MMAPI, thats RTSP/RTP protocol.
    u only need to configure existing streaming server like HELIX SERVER or DARWIN SERVER, and ENCODER like FFMPEG, HELIX PRODUCER, etc to encode ur live media / store file become RTP packet and then let server send that to ur client. u can use camera / TV turner also to capture live video and send that by streaming. So u dont need to make ur own server, except ur project need different protocol from that streaming server use.
    in client side, u can choose to use REAL MEDIA or make ur own player, Nokia already support RTSP protocol since S40 3rd edition and S50 2nd edition FP 3. so u dont need to parse by ur code RTSP message and RTP packet. u also can use forward and backward fiture too by that both streaming server.
    please read any RTSP / RTP standar protocol reference, i think it will be helpfull to u to make ur own system configuration ..
    -best regards-

  • Audio Streaming quality on ATV Airplay question

    I'm starting to build a "modest" audiophile stereo by ripping my CD's into iTunes via Apple Lossless, wirelessly streaming them to my ATV via Airplay, and then listening to them on my high(er) end DAC and / integrated amplifier. My question is, does the ATV and iTunes stream the music "lossless" over my wireless network (i.e., at ~ 800kbps), or does it "max out" around 256kbps. I ask because I don't really hear a big difference in the sound quality between the two formats and I'm wondering if I should really be running a USB from my Mac to my stereo's DAC / integrated amp.
    Any thoughts?

    Music is streamed losslessly. Specifically, whatever you are listening to, be it AAC, Apple Lossless, AIFF, etc. is encoded as Apple Lossless and then streamed to the ATV.
    At least I think. That's how everything has worked between iTunes and an Airport Express with AirTunes in the past (Stereophile magazine ran a test where they showed they could play an audio file via Airport Express and recover the original file's PCM data exactly from Airport Express's optical port). Things may be different with AirPlay and the new Apple TV, but I suspect it's still lossless.
    I do think it maxes out at 44 or 48 kbps, 16 bit, so if you download any high resolution files, you'd want to run USB or optical to your DAC. Otherwise, unless the AirPlay implementation's changed drastically, you're fine.

  • How do I keep iTunes from defaulting to Airplay

    I have iTunes 11.1.3 on my MacBook Mavericks.  I also have AppleTV and I sometime turn on Airplay to watch something I can get on my computer but not through iTunes or any of the subscription services I use.  The poblem is that when I forget to disable Airplay on my AppleTV unit, iTunes defaults to wanting to play everything over Airplay.  Then I have to go out into the other room and turn everythinh on just so that I can turn Airplay off.  Is there a way to invert iTunes default behavior so that if Airplay is active on AppleTV, I still have to explicitly tell iTunes to use it rather that diplaying on my computer screen?
    Thanks,
    Rob

  • Audio from iPhone/iPad via Airplay skipping on Apple TV

    When streaming audio from an iOS device, there is frequent and noticeable skipping to the point that it's unusable. I've recently upgrade Apple TV and moved to a different internet provider and wireless router and am still experiencing the same issue. Streaming video from my MacBook is absolutely fine. Streaming audio is glitchy.
    iPhone 4S running latest iOS
    iPad Mini running latest iOS
    Apple TV current gen running latest OS
    MacBook Air (2011) running latest OSX
    I've tried to find solutions to this before but eventually give up in frustration. I told myself that it was probably due to my old Apple TV. But now that I've got the current, brand new Apple TV and it's still happening I decided to ask for help.
    Has anyone experienced this and found a workable solution?

    Hello SebastianTroen,
    It sounds like you are seeing these performance issues persist between 2 different versions of the Apple TV. I would recommend that you use these troubleshooting steps from the following article, as it should help you resolve the issue:
    iOS: Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4215
    Troubleshooting performance issues with AirPlay or AirPlay Mirroring
    If you are experiencing intermittent playback or significant network lag with AirPlay or AirPlay Mirroring, it could be due to a weak Wi-Fi connection, interference, or the distance between the Wi-Fi router and your iOS device, Apple TV or AirPort Express.
    Try the following suggestions:
    Ensure that other devices are not trying to stream to the same Apple TV at the same time.
    Ensure that your Wi-Fi router is set up with the recommended settings for the best performance.
    Certain external devices, such as microwave ovens and baby monitors, may interfere with a Wi-Fi network. Try moving or disabling these devices.
    If possible, try to locate your Wi-Fi router in the same room as your iOS device and Apple TV.
    If your wireless and wired networks are the same, try connecting your Apple TV to the router via Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi.
    If the Wi-Fi router has an external antenna, check to see that is it connected properly and in good condition.
    Use the Wi-Fi network troubleshooting guide to resolve interference and other issues.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • Audio suddenly drop off when Airplaying video into Apple TV

    I´m trying to stream the content from my MacBook Air into my TV via my Apple TV using Airplay. Both audio and video work fine the first seconds on the TV then, suddenly, the sound drops off.
    All the sw is updated, the problem began after the latest Apple TV update.
    Does anybody have any ideas on how to solve this ?? (The solutions exposed in other threads doesn´t solve my problem)
    Thank you in advance

    +I figure the wireless transfer between the Mac mini and the Apple TV would be the limiting factor, but felt it prudent to at least check if the Firewire connection would have an effect.+
    +If not, then I plan on picking up a cheap, used older model Mac mini with the 400 Firewire port to save some cash.+
    No doubt the wireless transfer is the weakest link in the chain. Firewire 800 is substantially faster than 400, so you would gain some future-proofing by going with it. And the 2009 Minis come with Wifi-N, while the older models come with G/B.
    A used Mini will usually lack the Apple warranty.
    Minis are so handy that you have to ask yourself, why is someone getting rid of it? My somewhat cynical answer is that many Minis being sold on the used market are being gotten rid of because of some lurking problem issue that the owner hasn't been able to resolve.
    If you must buy an older model, consider an Apple refurbished Mini, which comes with full warranty and current software.
