I think what we want to confirm is that this Mac is not a notebook, but a Mac tower workstation of 60lbs or so.
The forum is not devoted to notebooks like MacBook series.

    How do I get sound on my TV from mo macbook pro?

    Depends on what you want to do, do you want to play music or video?
    If you have a Macbook that supports thunderbolt just connect it with a hdmi cable (if you want picture as well). If your mac doesn't support thunderbolt you could connect via the standard headphone jack. But still it depends on what you want to do. So...
    What do you want to play... (music, video)?
    What does your tv support (hdmi, digital audio (s/pidf?)?
    This helps narrowing down your solution.

  • How do I get sound into the computer from my webcam?

    Hello,
    I have a mac pro intel 8-core and need to use webcam with skype. The thing is, there is no build in mic on the 8-core and there is no mini audio input jack so how do I get the sound in from a webcam?
    In fact, are there webcams available that have the built-in mic sending the signal through USB or firewire? The only webcams I found had a mic with a mini-audio plug for plugging into the computer. But of course, there is no jack to plug it into.
    Besides using a firewire camcorder, is there anyway to get sound in from a webcam?
    Thanks so much,
    Kirk

    Hi
    I'm using Skype with a Logitech Pro 9000 camera with built in Mic.
    I didn't need special drivers, it worked as soon as it was connected. It was configured in -
    System Preferences - Sound - Input - then select Logitech Camera, USB and you are done.

  • My laptop crashed, how do I get my folders and everything from my laptop to my desktop firefox?

    My laptop crashed. I am trying to get the information, files, favorites, ects. to my desktop. How do you do this?

    If the music on your ipod was purchased from the itunes store, this article from the apple support website might help out.

    If the music was imported from another location, you can search yahoo, google or which ever search engine you like and search for transfer from ipod.

  • How do I get sound to work  for games...?

    How do I get sound to work for game apps, when I have sound for other items on ipad2?

    Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
    Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

  • How do I get sound out when I plug in a USB mic?

    How do I get sound out when I plug in a USB mic?  I cannot hear my instrument tracks either.  It will record my vocals, but I can't hear them.  If I unplug the mic and restore the internal devices, then I can hear all tracks, including the vocals.  I'm sure there's a simple solution.

    Hi
    Prior to Logic 9, you cannot separately choose Input/Output audio devices, so you either have the USB Mic, or the Built-in audio (or an external audio interface).
    To set up for 'mixed' devices, you need to use AudiMIDI Setup (Utilities folder) to create an Aggregate Device.

    Note that I recall that it was 'sensitive' to which order you create the devices with some USB Mics.

  • How do I get sound when I record videos on my ipad?

    I can record videos using the camera app - however, there is not sound.  How do I get sound?

    Thanks - this is good to know.  I actually ended up going to Google - which took me to Youtube - which showed me my volume button.  Oy.  I felt sheepish.  However, this is on loan to me from my work - and up until now - it has "lived" in a manila folder in my file cabinet.  For a first day, I'm doing well. 
    It's good to know that I can inadvertantly cover the microphone myself.  Thanks!

  • How do you get sound to work on 1st generation

    please help , how do you get sound on a first generation ipod touch. No sound is coming out ( I tried headphones but still no sound).

    The 1st gen iPod Touch does not have an internal speaker so you will only get sound through earphones.
    You could try another pair of earphones, check the volume settings, restart/reset the iPod, etc.

  • How do I get an activeX object reference from a LabVIEW ActiveXContainer ref?

    How do I get an activeX object reference from a LabVIEW ActiveXContainer ref?
    I'm trying to control an ActiveX object (a Web Browser) from another VI and need to get the object reference programmatically. I can get the LabVIEW ActiveXContainer reference, but am lost on how to get the reference for the object _inside_ the container.

    Hi Lee,
    The reference to the container is actually also accessing the object inside the container. Use the Property Node and Invoke Node to access properties and launch methods for the object. I've attached a small example that passes the reference to a SubVI and invokes a method inside the SubVI.
