Can i hook up speakers to my tv to get better ound quality?

I have a media player hooked up to my tv and would like better sound quality. Can i hook up speakers to my tv? I couldn't find any port.

I'm trying to hook a surround sound to my tv to play sound off an hdmi set up but it seems like I can't get the hdmi connection to spit out audio to the surround sound system even though I have aux cords going in the audio space to the receiver. Is it because I can't have an hdmi converted to surround sound without a digital converter?

  • When playing videos, connects me to the airplay option of IPad or AirPort.  Can I hook up speakers to my Airport extreme to get a sharable/higher quality sound.

    Is there some kind of USB hook up for speakers that can run off the airport extreme?  This will allow me to watch movies on my iPad with better sound. 

    I guess you could go with a USB audio connection on the extreme,
    As the Jolly Giant points out, audio is not supported on the AirPort Extreme. There is no audio jack and the USB port will only support a compatible printer or hard drive. USB speakers are not supported.

  • How can I get better picture quality?

    it seems like the picture quality could be better.

    Why would expect the picture quality to be better?  The camera on iPad was designed with one thing in mind - Facetime.  The rear camera is 1.3 Megapixel.  The front camera is .7 megapixel.  Neither are even close to an inexpensive point and shoot camera and not even the same camera as is supplied with iPhone 4.  Sorry you're disappointed, but it's not camera quality.  Now, that said, in bright light, the rear facing camera can take an acceptable picture.  In lower light, it will be grainy as the specs would suggest. 

  • How can I get better video quality using my appleTV

    I have an appleTV (1st) and I want to get better quality from youtube videos, What should I do ?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    YouTube video does not come from the main YouTube site, it is specially encoded for the Apple TV and other devices that don't play flash. Generally quality is fixed with no way to adjust it and is often restricted by the quality of the video that has been uploaded.

  • Can you hook up multiple pairs of wireless headphones to the MDR-DS6500 base unit

    Can you hook up multiple pairs of wireless headphnes to the MDR-DS6500 base unit or do you need a base unit for every pair you would like to connect to your tv? if you can which models are compatible?
    Thanks

    Do I need an AirPort to attach to each set of speakers that I want to connect, or is there another kind of receiver I can hook up to the speakers that do not have any kind of WiFi or Bluetooth configuration?
    You basically have two choices: 1) Place an AirPort Express base station at each of the speaker locations, or 2) Use an AirPlay-Ready receiver that offers whole-home audio support. The latter would require that all speakers be connected back to the receiver.
    Also, if I am planning to set up the airplay by using the extended network configuration, then the Wifi base station does not need to be an AirPort station? I have Fios and had trouble last time I tried to hook up an AirPort in place of the router that they provided.
    The AirPlay networking protocol requires either a wireless or wired connection between the AirPlay server (typically iTunes) and the AirPlay speaker (AirPort Express, Apple TV, or an AirPlay-Ready receiver or speaker). AirPlay will traverse over an extended Wi-Fi network regardless of which manufacturer hardware is used.

  • Time Capsule- can I network USB speakers?

    I just bought a time capsule and a macBook pro to replace my old iMac and Airport Extreme base station. Can I hook my USB Soundsticks to the USB port on my Time Capsule and network these speakers? How can I do this?

    Can I hook my USB Soundsticks to the USB port on my Time Capsule and network these speakers?
    No. That port can only be used for hard drives, flash drives, printers, or a hub which is used to connect two or more of those devices.

  • Can I Hook an Apple TV to an older TV that does not have HDMI Ports using a connector cable

    I have an older Sony HD TV and would like to hook my Apple TV to that TV but it does not have HDMI Ports.  Can I hook my Apple TV to this TV through a cable adapter that converts HDMI to Component Video and Audio (Red Green Blue Video Cables, Yellow White Audio) or HDMI to S-Video.  I have both these connections on my TV.  Thanks

    Thanks, I actually meant a converter box I just wanted to make sure that using that would work.  With Amazon FireTV Sticks for example I  jhave been told that only a direct HDMI connection to the TV would allow the device to work at all.

  • External video projector - How can I hook up my Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter onto my new MacBookAir if the machine does not have a mini port (but only 2 USBs and 1 Thunderbolt)?

    Hi
    How can I hook up my DVI Adapter onto my new MacBookAir if the machine does not have a mini port (but only 2 USBs and 1 Thunderbolt)?
    Is there a DVI adaptor already for Thunderbolt?
    Thanks,
    JFR

    The Mini Display port and Thunderbolt port use compatible connector bodies. Your current Mini Display to DVI or VGA adapter will still work as before on the newer Thunderbolt capable machines.

  • Can you hook two printers to the airport extreme

    Can I hook up multiple printers to any of the airport devices?  the middle one has more than one port - one for printer and one for hard drive.  Can I put a printer in each port?

    Hi - you can connect mutiple USB printers via a USB hub - you can also connect multiple printers to the ethernet ports on an Extreme or Time Capsule - you can do the same with an Express with an ethernet switch - you can also do it wirelessly

  • How can I hook up 3 screens to a Mac Pro 8 core 2010 model?

    How can I hook up 3 screens to a Mac Pro 8 core. One is a 23' Apple Cinema Display, the second is a 20" Apple cinema display and the 3rd is a 32' Sony Bravia HDTV (connected to mini port with mini/HDMI connector) Do I need to buy another video card? I have heard  about 4 different scenarios about this, and they all sound a bit complicated. I thought that you could automatically connect 3 displays with the card that comes with the MacPro. It has a DVI port and 2 mini ports, so it appears that would be for 3 displays. But this is where it gets strange. Any thoughts?

    Which video card?  5x70?  If you read about the various scenarios thern for 5x70's you need two active adapters for thee monitors (TV considered a monitor).  And you should have seen references to these apple docs:
    Mac Pro (Mid 2010), Mac Pro (Early 2009): Issues with three displays and multiple DVI, HDMI connections
    Mac Pro (Early 2009), Mac Pro (Mid 2010): Supported display configurations
    It's not really complicated.  Search out the appropriate adapters and hook 'em up.   For the 23" and 20", if they are DVI, you need single link adapters.  For the TV, if you end up using the DVI port for it (because possibly you can't find the appropate adapter cmbination) then you need to handle the audio separately since DVI doesn't carry audio.

  • Can you hook up to ethernet

    Can you hook up ethernet to express; have access to multiple computers, pick the one you want, drill down to that itunes library and play the associated songs and playlists?  Also, is there a way to play internet radio; lastly can you control this via an iphone?  if so how? is there an app that can allow users to access thier windows computer and see thier itunes library?

    Yes it sounds correct. They can be Windows computers, they just have to be running fairly recent versions of iTunes and they all have to be on the same network. Wired or wireless makes no difference.
    If you have an Express it can also join your network wirelessly or via Ethernet. They can be configured to connect to your network either way.
    With the iPhone's Remote app you simply click the gear icon and click "add an iTunes library". You go to that computer and type in the code to authorize it. Sharing has to be enabled in iTunes Preferences also. Home Sharing uses your Apple ID so the other computers all have to use the same one.
    Also, if you are using Windows you will almost certainly have to configure its firewall or anti-virus software. Such things are designed to hinder all sorts of communication and they're all different so you may be on your own trying to figure that out.
    Apple has lots of instructions regarding Home Sharing, if you're not getting anywhere start with this:

  • Can I hook up New Mac Mini to my old imac?

    Can I hook up New Mac Mini to my old imac to share the display? I want to upgrade my iMac since I can not add more memories... but thought may be I can add New Mac Mini and use that along with my old iMac.. Will this work?

    If your configuration supports Target Display mode, use that. If not, not without a standalone monitor and a product such as ScreenRecycler.

  • How can i hook my old ipod to my new lap top without loosing my music

    how can I hook up my iPod touch to my new laptop without loosing my music files

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iPod. Only if you back up your device manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your iPod for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the device for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

    Can I hook my iphone 5 to a touchscreen monitor and use the touchscreen feature of the monitor. Would I have to use the lighting to hdmi?

    The connection of the phone to the monitor would allow you to see, but does not have the ability to translate the touch on the monitor to the phone through that cable.
