Getting any sound out of a HP Envy 24 Monitor

I read of a post of somone havng problems with the resolution with their Mac. I am only running OS 10.6.8 witha VGA cable from a MacBook Pro 14' with no problems but with no software how do I get the sound to work?
I bought this monitor as I did a search on best monitors for Macs so I assumed (clearly wrongly) that everthing would work.
Please help I only bought this monitor for the audio with built in speakers as I have a very small desk space.
Thanks

Hi,
The monitor has following ports:
Connectivity
Ports
1 audio
Input connector:
VGA
MHL
HDMI

Given your Mac has VGA port and heaphones port, you have few options:
(a) Use a similar with the following device to convert to HDMI:

    Mac ---> coverter ----- HDMI cable ------ Monitor
(b) Use direct audio to audio. You already have VGA cable, all you need is add 1 more cable which is similar to the following cable:

          Cable #1: Mac VGA ----------------------------------- Monito VGA
          Cable #1: Mac headphones jack --------------------------------------------- Monitor audio port.

Don't get any sound out of my headphone jack

everything seems to be working just fine except I don't get any sound out of my headphones, almost like it is muted?? Ive tried several different headphones and get nothing, it must be something with the ipod itself... any suggestions

thanks for responding! Yeah i've been playing with the volume levels for over a week now. a few days ago i could hear a very faint sound with volume at full blast. im guessing the problem has something to do with the jack itself... either that or some mute setting i am unaware of?

I have a brand new Nano Ipod 7th Generation. I can't get any sound out of earphones. Yes, have pushed the cord all the way in. Screen shows tunes are playing, but I can't hear anything. Volume bar shows volume all the way up. Now what?

No sound out of earphones. Yes, cord is all the way in the jack. Screen shows tune is "playing", but I can't get any sound out. Help

If this is the case, I recommend to visit Apple store to request for replacement. Cheers!

I can't get any sound out of iTunes when i play a song.

Ever since i upgraded iTunes i can't get any sound out of it. The player shows the bar moving through the song but nothing is heard.

2-press power button for 30 seconds

Trouble getting any sound out of new Mac Pro

I recently bought a new Mac Pro and I've been having trouble getting any sound out of the internal speaker. I believe it thinks that there are always headphones plugged in even when there aren't. I don't get a startup sound and it doesn't make the "volume change quack" when I change the volume. The choices under the Sound panel for Output are: "Headphones", "Line Out", and "Digital Out" even if no headphones are plugged in. Sometimes I can get sound out of the computer if I jiggle around a headphone plug in the jack but as soon as I reboot or the machine wakes up from sleep the sound goes away.
I'm guessing that it's probably a bad headphone jack but before I inevitably have to lug the 60 pound machine to the Genius Bar I thought I'd ask to see if anyone else has had similar issues and if there might be a quick fix to do myself.
Thanks for any tips or help.

Thank you but that unfortunately did not fix it. I'm sure I need to take it in.

How come I can't get any sound out of my speakers

I have a mid 2011 iMac...can't get sound to come out of the speakers... It was working earlier today... I checked to make sure everything was connected and not muted... Thank you in advance for any help out there...
Shane

Go step by step and test.
1. System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers
    Highlight Internal Speakers / Headphones
    Make sure that Mute is not enabled.
2. If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone
    in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
    Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.
    Try this even if you don’t see the red light.
3. Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14222
4. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Choose the appropriate method.
5. Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup
    Audio Devices window
    Side Bar
    Click the Built-in Output.
     Make sure that no box is checked under “Mute”.
6. System Preferences > Sound> Sound Effects
    Play sound effects through:
    Select "Internal speakers" and then back to "Selected sound output device".
7.Launch iTunes and play a song through headphone and adjust the volume
   in the Mini player.

I am unable to get any sound out of my internal speakers and no options to use them are available. Plus the mute box is ticked and greyed out and will not untick

How can I get sound from my internal speakers. I have not set or adjusted any sound levels but all sound is muted and am unable to untick the mute box. I had sound when I bought the machine but now nothing, not even an option to select internal soeakers in Souns setup!!

1. Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
2. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Choose the method for:
    "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
3. Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup
    Audio Devices window
    Side Bar
    Click the Built-in Output.
    Under Mute any of the boxes checked? If so, uncheck it.

Why can't I get any sound out of Firefox.

I cannot get any audio from Firefox in any format (Flash, .wma, mp3, online radio, etc). I have tried the suggestions on the help page concerning the volume mixer, updating flash, etc. I did notice that Firefox and the Plug-in container do not even show in the volume mixer. Windows Media Player stopped working on this computer not long after I got it, that is not a real concern though. Itunes plays just fine. I am using Vista Home Premium SP2. Any suggestions?

Do you still have the original plastic shipping cover on the face of the iPhone? Or any kind of screen protector that covers the speaker ear hole. That will block the sound.
My wife experienced this.
Also if you still have the shipping plastic on the back, it will cause the camera flash to spill back into the camera lense spoiling your pictures.

I can't get any sound out of my iMac unless I am wearing headphones. Is there a way to fix this?

When I turned on my computer this morning I noticed that I didn't hear the chime, but realized that my son had left his earphones plugged in. When I unplugged them, the computer still didn't have any sound. When I plugged the earphones back in I could hear sound but only in my headphones. We stream Netflix/Hulu videos so we are in need of help. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, is there a solution?

Sounds like either the internal speaker volume is muted or the micro switch inside the headphone jack is stuck and the computer thinks something is still plugged in.
1. Check the sound preferences and see if you can select and/or unmute the internal speakers?
2. If not, try plugging in gently jiggling and then unplugging the headphones to see if you can unstick the micro switch?
3. If not, contact your local AASP and make a service appointment.

Hey i have a ipod touch and i can t get any sound out of my head phones. The lil bit i can get is scratchy and very very low??

I have a ipod touch and i can only get a very lil bit of sound and its scrachy souding out of my head phones... sounds good if you dont use head phones??? Can anybody help??

Your MacBook Pro doesn't have HDMI output... it's DVI. For sound, you will need to use the headphone out/optical digital audio out port to the TV/stereo. As far as video goes, I'm confused as to what cable you're using but at one point you're converting DVI to HDMI.

NO SOUND! I can't get any sound out of logic express....

Very recently, sound stopped coming out of my Logic Express.
There is a level (on the master) going out, and the master volume of the program is up, but nothing is coming through the speakers!
All other sounds are coming out (itunes etc), just not logic. Has previously been working fine!
I must have clicked something by accident, any suggestions please?!?

The first time I synced with the ipad I did go through "restore" from iTunes. The other options on the screen were "restore from iCloud" and "new ipad".
How do I do a restore now? With the ipad attached? Everytime I connect and disconnect the ipad to the cable, even with reboot, it takes me back to the same grey iPad configuration screen. Do I need to do a hard reset?

HP HPE H8-1203 I am not getting any sound out to the speakers.

HP HPE H8-1203 It is running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. I have installed all audio drivers required. The only change is that I started getting bluescreens and could not log into windows so i reinstalled it. I can not find any information telling me where to put jumpers on the audio connector on the mother board to eliminate the front audio connector from being the issue.

Hi Wild1,
As I mentioned there isn't a jumper setting for the front audio. I have included a link for the motherboard specifications and a link to your manual page that has some information on replacing some components.

Apart from the phone function, I can't get any sound out of my iPhone, i.e. music, youtube movies etc. is this a failing phone or a settings problem. I and others all failed to find a relevant setting.

What photo?????????.

It's atrocious... And they don't give a **** at all. I'm serious considering going with a different carrier after nine years. These guys will tell you anything just to lock you in your contract for another two years. They never had the number of units upfront to be selling us all in a pre order, that's already been reported. And they continue to jostle dates around and blame it all on Apples supply. The ironic part of the excuse is that they cannot take stock of what they have real time and then make those phones available on time and begin the back order process per the demand in real time either. As if to say " Appke will be getting is more they promised", when they should be saying " we're sold out and were not sure when our supplier is going to send the next shipment to fulfill orders" but you hear mon of that from these scumbags. They just want you to take a month late "pre order" and then say that it's all apples fault. Suggestion Verizon : DONT ******* SELL PHONES YOU DONT PHYSICALLY HAVE TO SELL IN A PRE ORDER
