I'm getting no audio from QTX on my new Mac Mini's digital o/p.

VLC is fine (once I'd selected the correct audio o/p). QTX has no 'preferences' - so what can I do? Seems a shame not to use QT.

According to the specs of your display, the kdl40v5100 does not allow you to make a digital audio connection between your mini and the TV, and therefore you can not use the TOSLINK cable you purchased to do this..
However, you can make an analog connection. At the back of your TV, you will notice that one of your HDMI inputs has 2 plugs next to it- a red one and a white one.
Here is a picture of the back of your set. Look at number 5. This is where you will make the connection.

This is where you will connect the mini audio, by using a cable that looks like this...

(and of course, if the HDMI for the mini is not plugged into the neighboring HDMI port you will have to switch things around to do so.

  • BEST METHOD OF DIGITIZING FROM DV DECK TO NEW MAC MINI

    Hi and thanks for the help. I've got a brand new mac mini on the way and I've been using a JVC SRDVM600 player/recorder as my mini DV source machine to digitize to my old mini through its 4 pin IEEE 1394 firewire port.  Now the new mini has firewire 800, Thunderbolt and USB 3.0 ports.  For digitizing/capturing from the JVC is there any quality difference between the 3 ports since the source is the 4 pin DV firewire and I'll need adaptors to get the media into the mini no matter which port I use? This will be for editing with fcpx.

    Exactly, the speed will be the same no matter what cables you use. The Firewire to Thunderbolt adapter was created for people who have Firewire devices that need to connect to a newer computer with Thunderbolt and no Firewire ports. Speed is always based on the slowest connection, even though Thunderbolt is rated at 10 Mbs, the fastest it can go is .8 Mbs dictated by the Firewire connection from the deck.
    I have a MacBook Pro mid-2011 that has both Thunderbolt and Firewire 800 ports, so luckily I don't need the Thunderbolt adapter. I also have three external Firewire 800 drives that I always plug into the Firewire port. But, recently I bought a Seagate GoFlex Thunderbolt adapter that will take any eSata drive. I removed my external drives from their Firewire enclosures so that I could plug them into the GoFlex adapter to get the Thunderbolt speed, or at least as fast as the eSata would allow, 6 Mbs.

  • How to get Bluetooth Audio gateway in Windows 7 on Mac Mini?

    I just bought the 2012 2.3 GHz Mac Mini
    I have installed windows 7..
    I also installed Broadcom 6.0.2 driver that supports Bluetooth audio gateway , but it keeps saying Bluetooth device not found, where as the Mac mini has an inbuilt 4.0 bluetooth ready!
    How do I get the bluetooth audio gateway to work??
    I use bluetooth headsets of Motorola to answer Skype calls..
    Please help me..
    Thanks

    The GUI version of Disk Utility is very limited in what sort of RAID configurations you can create. It will only allow you to have a single partition on the disk and to make a RAID using that.
    Boot Camp requires creating additional partitions on the disk and hence it complaining.
    There is a commandline version of Disk Utility called diskutility (duh!). It has far more options available. Details for this command can be obtained by typing man diskutility in Terminal.app.
    It appears that in theory you might be able to do the following.
    Start off with both disks not setup for RAID
    Use Boot Camp to create the Windows partition. Repeat this on each disk.
    Then in Terminal.app manually convert the boot Mac partition to a RAID using diskutil appleraid enable
    Then add the matching partition on the second drive to make it a working mirror using diskutil appleraid add
    Then in Terminal.app manually create a RAID for the Windows partition using both drives and use FAT32 as the format using diskutil appleraid create
    Then boot and run the Windows installer and tell it to erase the Windows partition as NTFS
    I cannot gurantee the above will work and you should obviously have backups if needed. Another option would be to have the Mac partition covered by RAID but not the Windows partition, this would result in three volumes one Mac RAIDed volume, and two other non RAIDed volumes even though you have two physical disks.

  • No sound from tv speakers connected to mac mini (toslink/digital out)

    Hi there,
    I followed this guide: http://www.tuaw.com/2009/08/21/ultimate-mac-mini-htpc-guide-hardware/ and bought a toslink to get audio from the mac mini to the tv speakers (sony bravia kdl40v5100). However, I can't hear any audio coming out from the tv speakers. What's up?
    On a side note, I got the mac mini display connected with hdmi to my tv, which works well.
    Let me know, thanks.

  • Migrate from old G4 to new mac mini

    how can i migrate from an old mac without airport to a new mini?  i have them connected by a firewire cable.

    See the following: Transferring files between two computers using FireWire
    A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
    The Knowledgebase article Intel-based Mac: Some migrated applications may need to be updated refers to methods of dealing with migrating from PowerPC chips to Intel with the Migration Assistant safely. The authors of this tip have not had a chance to verify this works in all instances, or that it avoids the 10.6.1 and earlier Guest Account bug that caused account information to get deleted upon use of the Migration/Setup Assistant. However, a well backed up source that includes at least two backups of all the data that are not connected to your machine will help you avoid potential issues, should they arise. In event it does not work, follow the steps below.
    If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate.  Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
    Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
    Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications Screensavers written for the PowerPC System Preference add-ons All Unsanity Haxies Browser and other plug-ins Contextual Menu Items Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5 Kernel extensions Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
    See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
    In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
    If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
    If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
    The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
    Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior, TechTool Pro , SuperDuper , and Drive Genius  work properly on Intel-Macs with Leopard.  The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries.  Leopard Cache Cleaner, Onyx, TinkerTool System, and Cocktail are now compatible with Leopard.
    Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.
    Additional links that will be helpful to new Intel-Mac users:
    Intel In MacsApple Guide to Universal ApplicationsMacInTouch List of Compatible Universal BinariesMacInTouch List of Rosetta Compatible ApplicationsMacUpdate List of Intel-Compatible SoftwareTransferring data with Setup Assistant - Migration Assistant FAQ
    Because Migration Assistant isn't the ideal way to migrate from PowerPC to Intel Macs, using Target Disk Mode, copying the critical contents to CD and DVD, an external hard drive, or networking will work better when moving from PowerPC to Intel Macs.  The initial section below discusses Target Disk Mode.  It is then followed by a section which discusses networking with Macs that lack Firewire.
    If both computers support the use of Firewire then you can use the following instructions:
    1. Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
    2. Backup your data.  This is vitally important in case you make a mistake or there's some other problem.
    3. Connect a Firewire cable between your old Mac and your new Intel Mac.
    4. Startup your old Mac in Target Disk Mode.
    5. Startup your new Mac for the first time, go through the setup and registration screens, but do NOT migrate data over. Get to your desktop on the new Mac without migrating any new data over.
    If you are not able to use a Firewire connection (for example you have a Late 2008 MacBook that only supports USB:)
    1. Set up a local home network: Creating a small Ethernet Network.
    2. If you have a MacBook Air or Late 2008 MacBook see the following: >MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) and MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008)- Migration Tips and Tricks:

    Copy the following items from your old Mac to the new Mac:
    In your /Home/ folder: Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites folders.
    In your /Home/Library/ folder:
    /Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
    Also in /Home/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need including folders for any third-party applications)
    /Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Preferences/ (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Calendars (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Safari (copy the whole folder)
    If you want cookies:
    /Home/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist /Home/Library/Application Support/WebFoundation/HTTPCookies.plist
    For Entourage users:
    Entourage is in /Home/Documents/Microsoft User Data Also in /Home/Library/Preferences/Microsoft.
    Credit goes to Macjack for this information.
    If you need to transfer data for other applications please ask the vendor or ask in the  Discussions where specific applications store their data.
    5. Once you have transferred what you need restart the new Mac and test to make sure the contents are there for each of the applications.

  • Old Macbook Died!  How do I get my info from Time Machine to New Mac?

    I spilled my coffee on my macbook! So sad. I used my time machine to backup my deceased macbook, but want to get that information onto my new macbook? I know this is possible, but I have no idea how to do it? Please help. I am lost without my emails and documents? Please help

    If there's room, sure. You can "migrate" your user account to her Mac.
    On her Mac, using an existing account on it, start up the +Migration Assistant+ app, in her Applications/Utilities folder. Select +From a Time Machine backup or other disk+ and click Continue.
    You'll then see a list of everything the Mac can find that might be a source; your Mac's backups should be listed. Select them and Continue.
    On the next page, select the user(s) you want. You can select or omit the top-level folders for each user, but not pick and choose inside them.
    You probably don't want to select apps or settings. If you need some apps, that's a bit tricky; post back with details.
    My wifes Imac already has a backup through the time machine.
    You'll need to decide what you want Time Machine to do with your account on her Mac. If there's room on your TC, let TM back up normally; the first one will do a full backup of everything you just moved. Subsequent backups will, of course, be incremental.
    When you get your Mac back, you'll have to be careful what, how, and from where you restore, but we can dig into that later.

  • Sony PFM-42V1: I cannot get any audio from monitor

    I cannot get any audio from my PFM-42V1. first: I connected independent speakers via speaker sockets - result no sound. Then after reading its Manuel it suggested I connect headphones to the monitor's audio mini jack - again no sound. What I do not understand is it said if sound doesn't work with headphones - contact computer manufacturer. Any suggestions?

    From your description it sounds like your using input 1 or input 2, you will need to feed a audio source into the 1/8 mini female jack (Fig. 1) next to input your using. This will allow the audio to pass to the speakers you've connected to the monitors speakers jacks (Fig 2). Also you'll want to make sure that within the Monitor Menu under Custom Setup that you have Speaker Out: On (not off).

  • I was able to copy all my files from my Time Capsule, but that is all they are...files. How do I get my new Mac Mini to emulate my other Mac?

    I was able to copy all my files from my Time Capsule, but that is all they are...files. How do I get my new Mac Mini to emulate my other Mac?

    Doggiemommie,
    Copying files is not a good idea.
    The "other Mac" was backed up onto Time Capsule using the Time Machine. On your new Mac you should restore the old user - rather than copy files manually.
    This usually happens during the initial setup of the new computer or you can do it later using Migration Assistant.
    Please note, it is possible to damage backup file on the Time Capsule when you browse it and copy files manually.
    Hope this explains.

  • I'm new to Mac. I have an iPhone and a Mac Mini.  My original iTunes was on a Windows computer that crashed.  So, all of my iTunes Music and Movies are gone.  How do I get the movies and music from my iPhone to the new Mac Mini?

    I'm new to Mac. I have an iPhone and a Mac Mini.  My original iTunes was on a Windows computer that crashed.  So, all of my iTunes Music and Movies are gone.  How do I get the movies and music from my iPhone to the new Mac Mini?

    If you still have the crashed Win computer, you may be able to recover your music and movies from the hard drive. If you have a friend with a hard drive USB connection kit and a PC, they should be able to help.  Otherwise, check locally for computer services that might do that for you (I think Best Buy Geek Squad may be able to help). If the drive itself is in good shape, it shouldn't be too expensive. 

  • How can i get my music from iphone onto a new pc

    how can i get my music from iphone onto a new pc . i have A NEW IPAD I WANT TO TRANSFER THE MUSIC ONTO

    When connected to your computer's iTunes you can use File > Transfer Purchases to copy over any music (and other content) that you've bought from Apple. For music that you've copied from your own CDs or bought from other download sites then is it not already on your computer and/or on a backup that you can copy onto your computer ? If not then you will need to find a third-party program to copy them off the phone.
    And there is no need to SHOUT.

  • Can't get my iTunes music from old PC to new Mac through iCloud.  Can't I just log in to iCloud to see music?

    From things you are saying, such as "shared folder" and having both machines on, it doesn't sound to me like you truly moved the whole iTunes collection.

    do not confuse moving your whole folder and library with moving just media files as in

    Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
