How do you get the sound to play on the tv from your macbook

I connected my macbook to my tv using a HDMI cord. I'm trying to watch netflix but the sound plays from my macbook. How do you get the music to play from the tv instead.

The adapter to HDMI doesn't carry sound from a MacBook earlier than the Mid 2010 models and most TVs don't have separate RCA input plugs for audio with the HDMI inputs since they expect the sound to be carried by the HDMI plug. With HDMI you'll need to use external speakers or headphone jack to RCA sound plugs connected to a stereo sound system if your TV doesn't have separate RCA input plugs for audio with the HDMI plug.

  • How do you get the answers to your security questions emailed to you?

    I have got a new iPod and have put the data from my old one on my new one. I was going to get a app and it asked me to answer 2 security questions. How can I get the answers to these questions sent to my email?

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

  • How do you wipe the info from your old iPhone

    How do you wipe the info off of your old iPhone ?

    Before you erase your phone, you need to first delete the iCloud account, sign out of FaceTime & iMessage. If you don't, this phone will still be linked to your Apple ID. Once you do that: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings.
    But, delete iCloud & turn the other stuff off first...important you do this.

  • How do you get the music from my ipod nano 6th generation onto itunes?

    I'm trying to get the music i have from my nano that o got from a my mac desktop to my pc laptop but i dont know how to donwload the music onto itunes.

    You'll want to copy all your music on your flash drive over to your empty iTunes library first.  Once you have successfully done that, plug your Nano in and choose the Erase and Sync option as long as you are 100% positive that all the content on your Nano is now in your iTunes library.
    The Erase and Sync operation will wipe all content from the iPod, associate the iPod with the new iTunes library, and then allow you to sync content back to the Nano from iTunes.

  • How do you get the pannel in your mac that shows your documents in icloud

    I've upload some pages files to icloud and i don't know how to make the pannel in my mac to show up to get the documents. Help me please.

    If you are using the latest version of Pages on your Mac in Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) the iCloud panel appears when you go to open a Pages document.
    You need to upgrade your Mac OS to get it.

  • How do you get the restrictions off your phone without having to reset it?

    I forgot the password to my restrictions code and I don't want to reset my phone just to get the restrictions off.

    The only way to remove the restrictions without having to restore the phone is to remember the restrictions passcode. There is no way to bypass it, unless, as stefejobsfan points out, you have a backup that was made before the restrictions were put in place.
    If it could be easily bypassed, it wouldn't be worth squat.

  • How do you wipe the data from your Time Machine to start afresh?

    HI,
    Ive used up all my data on the time machine.
    I'd like to wipe it all and start again, but can't find instructions on how to do that.
    Could anyone offer step by step advice for a non-technie. Thanks

    It is strange that disk utility is missing.. but it is not usable anyway.. The TC (I presume what you mean by Time Machine) is a network drive. Disk Utility only works with local drives.
    You open the airport utility and go the disk page and click the erase.. use only a quick erase otherwise it takes forever.

  • How do you change the theme of your macbook pro while still having lion?

    I would like to have it look like the old 10.4 look. Any suggestions?

    I want the old 10.4 look of the old macbook. In windows they had options where you can choose either the vista view or the classic windows look, etc. I was wondering if MacBook Pro had that feature where even though you have updated software such as Lion, you can still retain the same look your desktop had when you had the 10.4 version.

    If that phone has been synced in iTunes, you can restore from the backup after having restored the phone.
    There is also a little mac app that can read the iPhone backups that are in iTunes,called ibackupviewer.
    Then when there is no backup of the iPhone: read the following aricle:

  • This might seem minor, but in Screen saver, how do you change the photos from your iPhoto that are those predetermined files on System Preferences?

    I am trying to get new photos or images into the files (or whatever they are) on Screensaver that load when you screen saver becomes active. How exactly do you do that?

    "If the screen saver doesn’t have an installer, drag it to /Library/Screen Savers at the top level of your internal disk. This makes the screen saver available to all users. If you want it available only to a specific user, drag it to the Library folder in that user’s home folder (the one with the user’s name)." was in the Installing and Uninstalling Screen Savers section.
    A quick look around showed me that System (System/Library/Screen Savers) also holds some of the Apple images.
