Can't get sound on tv from notebook

I have a HP 2000 Notebook PC running Windows 8. Hooked up to Magnavox tv thru HDMI cable. No sound on tv, only on laptop. Is there a way to correct so I can get sound thru tv?

Hi sallywinddancer,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums.
I see you are having sound issues when you hookup your tv to your notebook with an HDMI cable.
I would be happy to help you. Firstly, a few more details about your notebook would be helpful, as there are many different versions of the HP 2000 Notebook. Please read the following documents, if you need help in finding your product/model number and OS version.
How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Is the Windows Version on My Computer 32-bit or 64-bit?
Has your HDMI/TV connection ever had sound before, and if so were there any updates that could have affected it?
Some general information that may be helpful for you:
Connecting a Monitor, Projector or TV (Windows 8)
Overview of HDMI and DVI Connections for PCs
In the following link, please pay particular attention to the section on Troubleshooting TV setup as a second monitor.
Using Two or More Monitors with One Computer (Windows 8)
Other things that could help would be to insure that you have updated all the video and audio related drivers for your notebook. The drivers can normally be found from the product page for your notebook, or from the original chipset manufacturer. I would link that page to this, but I need the exact product/model number to get the right page for you.
Another thing that could help with drivers is the: HP Support Assistant as it can automate the driver updates for you.
Please let me know if any of this information has been useful to you, or if you need any further help.

Can't get sound to play from my mac to Bose system

Can't get sound to tv from MBP. PLEASE HELP.

I am having trouble getting sound to the tv from my MBP. I tried it on two televisions, a sharp and an LG. The only way I could get sound was through a stereo receiver on the sharp, and that took some doing.... So, I tried on the tv I mainly watch - and no sound. Is there possibly a setting within the tv, or should sound be automatic once i connect the rca into the headphone port on MBP.
The tv has the hdmi for video, and ports for audio, I plugged the white and yellow. I know it is probably something really simple - but I have tried all that I know to do. Thanks in advance....

You need an adapter. Mini DisplayPort can not output audio.

Can't get Sound to application from attached audio mixer

I have an Onyx 1220 mixer connected to the mac pro via firewire.
The mac sees it and allows me to select it in System Preferences.
In prefs, I can talk into a mic attached to the mixer and see the level on the mac register normally.
However, when I run an app, Garage Band, SoundTrack Pro, anything, and select the mixer as input, I get no sound into the application.
I can't help but think this is user error since when I connect it to the PC running Win XP via firewire, and select the correct device, everything works fine.
Any ideas? I know many podcasters use this model, so I must be doing something wrong or missing a step.

Can't get sound from Insignia BT headphones w/ BT-equipped dv3t

Both are brand-new, I charged the headphones and downloaded the updated drivers from www.broadcom.com (actually Vista seemed to do it automatically) and the device is paired but I can't get any sound out of it (it's turned on:-)).
Under the Playback tab in the Sound control panel there are three items:
Speakers: Bluetooth Hands-free Audio
Speakers and Headphones: IDT High Definition Audio CODEC
Independent Headphones: IDT High Definition Audio CODEC
All say they are working, but when I test the sound of each one I only get sound from the notebook speakers using the second option. The only weird thing I can think of is that I had the USB adapter plugged in when I downloaded the drivers, so maybe it downloaded drivers designed to work through USB? (I can't get sound with the adapter plugged in, though, either).
Any suggestions welcome, I really want to get this to work and not have to send the headphones back to seller (which is what Insignia tech support told me to do).
P.S. I know I have BT turned on because I'm also connected to a wireless home network, they go together.

Hello again,
oops, I must have missed your last message... sorry for that!
I have to say, that I don t have my digital sound system that long, that I can answer this question for sure. However...
You re right, that it should be possible, although I wasn t able to find a way to do that... yet... Somewhere (don t know if it was this forum or another place) I ve read, that the SPDIF support for Windows Vista isn t that nice at this time... perhaps a new driver will solve this
Furthermore... I don t use the Media Center that much. So I don t even know if there is any option to set the output device (within the application Media Center). That would be important to realize "the best of both worlds". Explanation: If you want headphones support, you (always) have to leave the Speakers device as default. Other applications (such as Winamp,...) allow us to set the output device (in Winamp for example you can set it under the preferences Output -> Directsound device) to the SPDIF device, although we have selected "Speakers" as default in the control panel... nice, isn t it's For sure... if it would work...
That way you don t get a(n) AC3/DTS signal via SPDIF... so, if you use Windows Vista (I can't answer your question related to other operating systems, because of my newly purchased system -> I haven t used it on XP) the only way that I know ( til now) is to select the SPDIF device as default...

How can I get audio to play from my TV when using hdmi cable? Video looks great, just no sound.

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.

Can't get sound from my midi channels

Hello. I've been using Logic 8 for a while. 2 days ago I updated to the newest version 8.0.1 and after I did it, I can't get sound from my midi channels. Before the update I could use my Ivory pianos perfectly, but after the update I can't. I've tried every setup I can imagine. I've been here sitting for hours trying to fix it but I can't .
Logic recognizes my keyboard, since I play...all the notes appear on the transport bar, but i can't get sound from any sampler (Ivory, EXS, EVP88, etc).
I've checked my outputs, etc...but nothing.
Please help me!!! I'm desperate!
Thanks

Do you hear the Audio tracks and only Software Instruments are not working od don't you get any output at all? I was just assuming that through the update your Apogee has been removed as your Audio device in Preferences->Audio->devices.

Can't get sound from many websites.

I can't get sound on my PowerMac from MANY websites (such as Hallmark.com, YouTube, some blogs, etc.). Yet I'm able to get sound on those same sites on my iBook. The PowerMac has no sound problems on other websites or in iTune function, sound effects, output or input. Anyone out there experience a similar problem or have any ideas as to what the problem might be? Thanks.
PowerMac 8,1 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Hi, why wouldn't you suspect the earbuds, since if I'm reading this correctly, they don't work with different software, or any of your devices?
On the Mac Pro, Long shot, but...
Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there, some things will change it for their own use, then not set it back.

Can't get sound on a movie purchased from apple tv

Hi , can't get sound on a film from apple just purchased ? John

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try adjusting the audio out and/or the dolby digital settings.

I can't get sound from my macbook pro to my hdtv.

I have tried using cables that go from headphone jack to the one on the tv, from the audio input to the headphone jack on my mac and another iwire digital optical cable that only fit in the digital audio out at the back of my tv. Nothing worked. I can only get sound out of the laptop. Please help, this is driving me crazy. I get picture just fine however.
I have a Panasonic Viera 42" tv.
Thanks.

Hi Brad,
You'll need to run a 3.5mm stereo mini jack (on the MBP end) to RCA (usually red and white) and connect the RCA cables to the inputs which correspond with the video input you're using, then select that set of inputs on the TV.

You have your mute button on. In Settings check to see if you have Lock Orientation checked or Mute checked on the right hand side. If you have Mute checked, all you need to do is click the mute button above the volume control buttons on the upper right hand side of your iPad. If you have Lock Orientation checked in settings, you double click your home button and the most recent apps will appear. Swipe your finger to the right until the Mute icon appears on the left side. Touch it and you will unmute system sounds.

I can't get sound from firefox

Programmes load and play but I can't get sound while on any internet. Adobe flash player is up to date and I can get other programmes (like itunes, movie players etc) to play with sound no problem. I have checked the mixer volume is up when I visit a site.

I have already followed all the advice on the no sound on firefox page, any more ideas?

Unless you subscribe to iTunes Match , Apple does not keep a backup of your iTunes library. Even then it is not the library as it exists on your computer, but some version of the media, and only media files, not playlists. Even then not all media are definitely available since anything removed from the iTunes Store since you purchased it is not available for re-download.

Using Match as a backup for iTunes - https://discussions.apple.com/message/17039436#17039436
In your case it sounds like you will have to obtain non iTunes purchases from their original source or a backup you may have made at some time in the past.
