    How can I get audio to play from my TV when using hdmi cable?  Video looks great, just no sound.
    I've tried plugging the hdmi into the TV directly and the receiver.
    I get video every time.  HBO to Go , Xfinity, ABC, Youtube, etc...
    just no audio.  Any suggestions? 
    I've tried starting the apps then plugging in the hdmi cable.
    I never tried this before I upgraded to IOS 5.

    Claudiamil-
    I had not tried it with mine since upgrading to iOS 5, so I just did.  I'm using a small Vizio HDTV.  I did not try YouTube, but did try several videos and musical numbers.  In all cases there was sound, including stereo when the source had it.
    I assume you are getting sound from the iPad when the adapter is not connected, so the volume is not turned down.  Dah*veed's suggestion to reset may be what you need.

  • No sound from the TV when using HDMI cable, No sound from the TV when using HDMI cable

    I recently purchased HDMI cable and adaptor, so that I can play downloads from my Macbook Air on my TV. There is only sound from the Macbook, not the TV - Do I need as separate cable for sound?

    I've got the same issue: when I connect my Macbook Air (2011) to TV via HDMI cable there's no sound through the TV system, only from the Macbook Air. I used to use my older Macbook Pro with the same HDMI adapter and it worked just fine, but not with the Macbook Air it doesn't.
    My software is up to date. I tried to select the TV as an output option in sound preferences, but it doesn't yield any results.
    Rebooding multiple times doesn't help either.
    Any suggestions on how to tackle this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

  • I want to buy a new apple tv but it used hdmi cables and my house is only wired for analog.  Is there any way I can use the apple tv on analog cables?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It's do-able, but I don't think it's a great idea.
    DVI
    Some users with DVI have managed to get their TV's to work with DVI-HDMI cables. DVI carries no audio, so alternative connections need to be explored to enable audio. DVI doesn't necessarily support HDCP as well as other standards used by HDMI (which may or may not be an issue)
    Analogue
    There are hardware converters that will convert HDMI to various other types of output, however there are some issues with doing so that you should be aware of.
    HDCP
    HDCP compliant converters will not allow you to watch HDCP protected content such as that from the iTunes Store. Non compliant converters exist but we cannot discuss them under the Terms of Use for these communities.
    Resolution and aspect ratio
    I'm not aware of any converters that will scale the output from the Apple TV, any TV or projector which is used will need to be widescreen and support resolutions of 720p (Apple TV 2), 720p/1080p (Apple TV 3)

  • Why can I no longer use hdmi cable to connect to the tv

    WWhy can I no longer use hdmi cable to connect to the tv

    Anyway, with the introduction of ios 8.x, apple stopped supporting older a/v cables. You need to get the latest a/v cable with the correct firmware. There is a little chip in the a/v cable. go to the apple store. Buy a new cable. Verify the cable works in the store.
    some people report success with a full factory restore.
    Re-boot ipad.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears, then drag the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.  page 128 iPad user manual.
    force power down if the above give you trouble.
    Hold down both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button. Ten seconds or more.  Hold until the Apple logo appears.
    more details on re-booting:

    Restore to factory settings by loading the latest version of ios that your machine will support:

  • My MacBook Pro is not able to detect Toshiba LCD TV using HDMI Cable

    Hello,
    I am recently having an issue of connecting my MacBook Pro with Toshiba LCD 32 Inch i tried many troubleshooting scenarios but nothing came up on my LCD,
    My Mac OS 10.6.6 with the latest updates from Apple, i tried to connect my Mac to Sony Pravia LCD Screen and it's work fine but not the case in TOSHIBA !,
    Please advise me if it's something related to my TV.
    Waiting reply from technical,

    Hello Dear,
    Thanks for response,
    I check the TV Manual and it's support the "Extended display identification data (EDID)" and i already connect my PS3 on the TV using HDMI Cable, but when i connect the MacBook Pro screen flashed and nothing came up on the TV and this why i am trying to understand is it Mac issue or TV one,
    Please review the following i copy it from the TV Manual and advise me,
    "Connecting an HDMI or a DVI device
    The HDMI input on your TV receives digital audio
    and uncompressed digital video from an HDMI
    device and uncompressed digital video from a
    DVI device.
    This input is designed to accept HDCP
    programme material in digital from CEA-861-D
    compliant consumer electronic devices (such as
    a set top box and DVD player with HDMI and DVI
    output).
    The HDMI input is designed for best performance
    with 1080i (50 Hz/60 Hz) and 1080p (24/50/60
    Hz) high-definition video signals, but will also
    accept and display 480i, 480p, 576i, 576p, and
    720p (50Hz/60 Hz (60 Hz: except for E-EDID))
    and VGA (VESA 640 × 480 @ 60/72/75 Hz)
    signals.
    • HDMI: High-Definition Multimedia Interface
    • DVI: Digital Video Interface
    • HDCP: High-bandwidth Digital Content
    Protection
    • CEA-861-D compliance covers the
    transmission of uncompressed digital video
    with high-bandwidth digital content protection,
    which is being standardized for reception of
    high-definition video signals. Because this is
    an evolving technology, it is possible that some
    devices may not operate properly with the TV.
    • E-EDID: Enhanced-Extended Display
    Identification
    • Acceptable PC signal format:
    S-VGA: VESA 800 5 600 @ 56/60/72/75 Hz
    XGA: VESA 1024 5 768 @ 60/70/75 Hz
    W-XGA: VESA 1280 5 768 @ 60/75 Hz
    W-XGA: VESA 1360 5 768 @ 60 Hz
    S-XGA: VESA 1280 5 1024 @ 60/75 Hz
    However, these signal formats are converted to
    match the number of pixels of the LCD panel.
    Therefore, the TV may not display small text
    properly.
    If you connect this unit to your PC, the
    compressed image is displayed in S-XGA mode,
    therefore the picture quality may deteriorate and
    characters may not be read.

  • Cannot Connect Pavilion dv6 2020sa laptop to HDTV using HDMI cable

    Hi
    I have tried to connect my laptop to HDTV using HDMI cable but it just comes up with a 'No Signal' message on TV, any ideas?  I have done a search on internet with no joy.
    Operating system is Windows 7
    TV is 32" LG LCD HDTV

    I have been having the same issues trying to connect my Laptop to my TV to use as a DVD player. A normal HDTV cable would not work. I went to Best buy, and found a HDMI cable that said "Laptop to HDMI cable" It was the only HDMI cable out of all of the HDMI that said "Laptop to HDMI". It was also twice the cost, $50.00 for a 10 foot cable. It seems a little to high in price so I am looking for a cheaper one on the web. If I find one, I will post to let you know.

  • I have recently bought a new domain which is hosted so that I can send and receive e-mails

    I have recently bought a new domain which is hosted so that I can send and receive e-mails & run a webpage. It has POP3 and SMTP settings that I can use to send and receive my e-mails via Outlook on my PC. However, it doesn't work on my iPad. I have changed port settings and appear to be able to send but each time I start the Mail application my iPad reports "username or password incorrect" even though these correctly work on my PC. MS Outlook Exchange 2010 Live Mail works OK with the same settings on my iPad but I would like to get all my mail via the iPad inbuilt application.
    Can anyone help?

    POP3 accounts are really designed only to be used from one computer and some email providers actually 'lock' the account while in use to stop it being used by another computer/device at the same time.
    Try closing Outlook, wait some minutes then try accessing it from the iPad. You may find it works once the POP3 connection has been released.
    Ideally, you should be using IMAP because POP3 is old and not suitable for modern, multi-device usage.

  • I tried to reset my iPad, and it has not got past the apple start up page

    I tried to reset my iPad, and it has not got past the apple start up in several hours. I've tried connecting it to itunes but its not detected.
    What can I do?

    I assume that you mean that all you see on the screen is the Apple logo and it hasn't changed for hours from that screen. You may need to restore using recovery mode, since your iPad is not being recognized in iTunes.
    Instructions here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
    But - did you try this first?
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    By the way, I just purchased this movie last night.  I somehow deleted Cars while the other parts of the bundle were still downloading.  I tried looking into iClod but I was unable to find a link to download the movie again.

  • Spill water on my Iphone and I want to recover photos on my Ipad The pictures on the Iphone were not shared with other apple devices is it possible get my photos from the iCloud ?

    spill water on my Iphone and I want to recover photos on my Ipad The pictures on the Iphone were not shared with other apple devices is it possible get my photos from the iCloud ?

    Had you set your iPhone up to use Photo Stream?
    Had your performed an iCloud backup of your iPhone before it was damaged?
    If you did neither of the above, then your photos are not in the cloud, and they are gone.
    If you performed an iCloud backup, then it would contain the photos in the iPhone's Camera Roll (taken on the iPhone) at the time of your last backup.  You could restore this iCloud backup to a device.
    If your iPhone used Photo Stream, those photos are immediately accessible to your iPad if you set it up to use the same Photo Stream.

    My G5 PowerPC still works great, but what is the latest OS that is possible.  I just bought a new HP Printer and it is not compatible with OS 10.4.  Is there any hope?

    A PPC G5 cannot run any version of OS X beyond Leopard 10.5.8.
    You should be able to find a Leopard retail (black) install disk on eBay. A grey update disk is machine specific and won't work.
