HT2646 Does the HDMI cable get connected to the TV or HD receiver if you have a Bose surround system

In setting up apple tv does the HDMI cable get connected to the HD reliever instead of in back of the tv when u have a Bose system?

Your best bet is to connect the AppleTV's HDMI to the Bose and the Bose HDMI to the TV. You could connect the AppleTV's HDMI to the TV and the AppleTV's optical to the Bose but optical (S/PDIF, specifically) does not have as much bandwidth as HDMI so you'd potentially have lower quality sound (from what I've read...I'm not an expert on audio).

    Hello gman0700.
    Welcome to the HP Forums. I understand you are unable to produce audio through an HDMI connection. I apologize for the late response, but I will do my best to assist you. Before anything else, please answer these questions:
    1. What is the current computer's operating system? Does the same behaviour occur on multiple operating systems?
    2. The title seems to imply that there is no audio when connected to a television, using HDMI. Does this only occur when you connect to a television? Will it occur if you connect to something else using HDMI?
    3. Have you tried connecting to a television using VGA or DVI? If so, what are the results?
    As an additional suggestion, for now, I would review the television's manual to confirm that everything is correct from the television's standpoint.
    Please post this information as soon as you can. Thank you posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Why can I no longer use hdmi cable to connect to the tv

    WWhy can I no longer use hdmi cable to connect to the tv

    Anyway, with the introduction of ios 8.x, apple stopped supporting older a/v cables. You need to get the latest a/v cable with the correct firmware. There is a little chip in the a/v cable. go to the apple store. Buy a new cable. Verify the cable works in the store.
    some people report success with a full factory restore.
    Re-boot ipad.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears, then drag the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.  page 128 iPad user manual.
    force power down if the above give you trouble.
    Hold down both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button. Ten seconds or more.  Hold until the Apple logo appears.
    more details on re-booting:

    Restore to factory settings by loading the latest version of ios that your machine will support:
       Do a full backup of your device.  Twice is best -- cloud and computer.

  • I will be using a HDMI cable to connect an Apple TV box and a Comcast cable TV box to my TV. My TV has only one HDMI port.

    I will be using a HDMI cable to connect an Apple TV box and a Comcast cable TV box to my TV. My TV has only one HDMI port.
    To do this I will need a 2x1 HDMI splitter or a 2x1 HDMI auto switch (preferred).
    ?Is there any Apple TV HDMI port voltage?
    When using a HDMI auto switch to connect two devices to a HDMI TV, the
    Auto switch cable box only works for components that do not output continuous voltage over HDMI port when turned off.
    Do you know of any other solutions? Componets? Actual expierances?
    Full text below.
    Cable : HDMI switches expand the number of available HDMI ports on a high definition television allowing connection of cable boxes, Blu-ray players, and game consoles. A side benefit is that cable clutter is also eliminated by running a single HDMI cable to your HDTV from a switch and relocating the HDMI ports to a concealed location. The problem with most HDMI switches is that you have to either get up to push a button, or hunt for the remote control, to switch sources. The true mark of any great switching component is an ability to perform its function and remain transparent in its operation. This automatic HDMI switch is a plug-and-play away from offering everything you are looking for in an HDMI switch. Select a single output from up to three devices for signal delivery to your HDTV. Smart operation provides complete control for connect-and-forget operation. Powering on a device gives it output priority over the other devices. By powering down the device in use, output priority is returned to the last powered on device. Note: Auto switch function only works for components that do not output continuous voltage over HDMI port when turned off.

    Thanks for any help. Sincerely,

    Hi Erico,
    I tried what you said again but without success. I even updated the driver so that that audio driver is the same as the graphics driver i.e.. NVIDIA but this has not helped either:
    Do you have any other ideas?
    Many many thanks,
    Louise

    To add to sig's reply, "calibrating" does not calibrate Lithiu-Ion batteries, it calibrates the charge reporting circuitry.  If you look at the effect of deep discharging Lithium-Ion batteries in the data from the independent test group, Battery University, you will see that doing so shortens the life of the battery significantly. It looks like an optimum balance between use and life is at a discharge level of 50%.

  • What to do when you have internet connection but go to use an app, you get the Error message, 'An error occurred connecting to the server. Please make sure you have an internet connection' ?

    Yesterday, I downloaded the twoignite app. When I went to open the app to use, this error message appeared: An error occurred connecting to the server. Please make sure you have an internet connection. I checked my connection and found I had a solid connection. I have tried closing the app and reopening it; deleting the app and redownloading it (more than once); turning off my iphone and turning it back on. None of these things have worked. Thanks.

    Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS? this in the works?

    "Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS?"
    Apple chose not to offer this as a feature of iphone. E-mail can accomplish the same thing.
    "is in the works?"
    This has been asked and answered countless times. The forum search bar is on the right side of this page.
    Apple has announced that MMS will be included in the 3.0 software due out this summer. Before you ask, all that has been announced is in this link:

    The mailbox list is divided into categories with headings in caps, such as ON MY MAC. When you hover the cursor over one of those headings (except for MAILBOXES), you should see the word Show or Hide on the right. Click Show. The  MAILBOXES category can't be hidden.
    In each category, the mailboxes are arranged in groups, such as Inbox. To the left of each group is a small disclosure triangle. If the triangle points to the right, click it so that it points down.

    Some apps, such as Keynote, support different displays on the iPad screen and an external display. The iPad does not span it's "desktop" across screens, though; it only mirrors.
