I want to set the sound output channel per application.

So iTunes and Spotify via my airport express, but normal youtube videos, or any other mac apps such as Safari via the internal speakers. Can this be set (forced) or do I need to switch manually all the time, by holding down the alt-key and pushing the volume icon?

With the Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody there is an adapter that uses the Mini DisplayPort and a USB port to combine video and audio to HDMI. It's only 2 channel stereo not 5.1 Dolby Surround.

If you connect the MacBook using a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter you will probably need to use external speakers or a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack to RCA sound plugs connected to a stereo sound system if your TV doesn't have separate RCA input plugs or a 3.5mm stereo input plug for audio with the HDMI plug. The Mini DisplayPort to HDMI doesn't carry audio unless you have the Mid 2010 model 7,1 and there're no audio plugs on most TVs to work with HDMI since it's expecting audio with the HDMI.

What do I do when I want to change the sound output from my computer to my TV but I do not have the HDMI option under sound output?

I have the first generation of the silver macbook (with the black keyboard- before it went to macbook pro). I have been watching movies from my computer onto my TV via a HDMI cable. For awhile now I have been trying to get the sound from my computer to go onto my TV, but I do not have the option of HDMI on my computer. I was wondering if anyone knew why or what I do when I do not have that option. Thank you!

Is it possible to set the sound output to Firewire and HDMI at the same time?

I would like to use Amarra for playing music thru the Firewire to a DAC and I would like the family to be able to use the MacMini for streaming sources thru the HDMI without having to change any settings every time. I'm running 10.8. Is that possible thru any special settings or separate software?
Thanks in advance

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
Do some web searches for using software called Soundflower in conjunction with other 3rd party audio software to set up your own audio input and output sources.
That is all I know about it. I have read a few ideas for doing such things over the years.

Sound output channel keeps switching by itself every few seconds

Hey guys, I have this sound output issue with my Macbook pro 2010 September version that every once in a while, the audio output would keep swapping between headphone, digital output and the speakers when NO headphone or digital output or what so ever is actually plugged in. During this time i am unable to adjust sounds, and my menu bar would become very slow to respond (the sound icon and Soundsource application would stop responding during this time). After a while (could be less than 10 minutes or last to about an hour, it varies), it returns back to normal by itself.
I've read many posts on Apple forum about this issue, but i haven't found a suitable solution. Also, I read that for most, when the audio output doesn't work it would usually be a output socket issue that there is a RED light in the socket. But for me, at times it has a RED light, at times, it doesn't, and sometimes the RED light would switch on and off by itself for a couple of times, depending on how long this issue lasts until it returns to its normal state by itself.
I have tried:
1. plugging the headphone into the socket and take it out quickly
2. Downloading Soundsource: i heard that Soundsource has an option of manually adjusting the sound output channel instead of letting the computer switch automatically, but unfortunately I downloaded the latest (2.5) version of the software and it doesn't have that option on my macbook pro.
3. I also tried Cmd + Opt + P + R
The result however is that none of this worked.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

I have both and haven't experienced this at all. Very strange. I do get a lot of random channel changes however when I put my iPad on the remote, the cat walks over it or the dog sits on it.
That being said, I don't use the Samsung remote at all for the TV and never have done. I dislike it and find it unresponsive. I use a different remote to change through the available outputs and the Vision remote for Vision and for switching the TV on and off.

I want to slow the audio output on my mac by several seconds

I hate listening to FOX Sports and want to stream KNBR for the audio. However, the radio is several seconds ahead of the TV. I want to delay the sound output. ???

If your monitor also supports DVI, then you can use the supplied HDMI to DVI Adapter and a DVI cable.
If your monitor only supports VGA, then you will need to use Apple's Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter connected to the Mac Mini's combination Thunderbolt/Mini DisplayPort.

How to set the number of rows per page dynamically

Hello all,
i urgent need the option to set the number of rows per page dynamically.
I've got a parameter.
In dependence of the value of this paramter i want to set the number of rows per page of a repeating frame.
The Reports Builder version i use is 10.1.2.0.2
I defined a report trigger.
My code so far:
function R_G_BEMERKUNGFormatTrigger return boolean is
begin
if :vYN_Display_one_per_page = 'Y' then
--what i've to write right here??
return (TRUE);
else
     return (TRUE);
end if;
return (TRUE);
end;
Can anyone help me please??
Best regards
Florian

Do you just need to change back and forth between 1 and some other number? If so, you can create two identical layouts, one with the "number of rows per page" preperty (on the repeating frame) set to 1 and the other layout set to whatever. You would have to have duplicate layouts for each group you wanted to do this with. Your format trigger on the outermost master group frame where num of rows was 1 would look like:
function M_G_ename_GRPFRFormatTrigger return boolean is
begin
if :vYN_Display_one_per_page = 'Y' then
    return (TRUE);
else
    return (FALSE);
end if;
end;Your format trigger on the outermost master group frame where num of rows was whatever would look like:

Can I put ALL the sound output from my iMac through Airport?

Just got Airport Express, and managed to install it very quickly on my existing Belkin network. Just don't forget the $ before your WEP key.
Does anyone know if its possible to put ALL the sound output from my iMac through to Airport, rather than just iTunes? So internet radio, streaming videos etc?

Thanks matey - that's just what I was after.
Not sure if that will also let me put my iMac's system sounds through my HiFi - probably not - but then who in their right mind could possibly want to...?
(Be nice if you could though)

The sound output does not work on my ipod

Hi There,
I have an Ipod 4 th generation and the sound output no longer works on any device. I've reset and reinstalled the software but nothing appears to work?
Any ideas please?
Serial number: 9C6463XJV9R
Thanks Chris

If none of the 5 R's helped address the issue, it's likely hardware related.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
As to what exactly is damaged/faulty, no there is no certain way to tell. It could be the iPod's audio chip or something else on the logic board.
Either way you'll need to have your iPod serviced/replaced either by Apple or a third party company.

I want to plug my apple tv into a projector but i want to break the sound out and plug this in to a sperate audio solution which has 2 phono's. Is there a lead that does this?

I want to plg my apple tv in to a projector but i want to break the sound out to a seperate audio solution. Is there a lead that I can use? The sound system has 2 x phono connections?

The sound can already be "broken out" by using the optiocal cable jack. That, of course, assumes your audio input is capable of optical inputs. If not, you might have alook into something like this: https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=opt ical+to+rca+converter&tbm=shop

Generating a square waveform of 100 KHz from one of the Anolog output channels of PXI-6713 ?

Hi
I am trying to generate a square waveform from one of the anolog output channels of PXI 6713.
I am developing my application in VC++
My requirement is a continous 100 KHz square waveform with 90% duty cycle and 1.5 V amplitude.
The following is the code i have used (i have removed error handling code):
***** code *******
i16 deviceNumber = 6; // PXI 6713 Device Id as per NI-MAX
i16 deviceNumberCode; // to be returned by Init_DA_Brds function
i16 chan = 2; // DAC channel 2
i16 numChans = 1; // only one channel is used for
i16 chanVect[1] = {2}; // DAC Channel 2
f64 gain = 1.0;
i16 binArray[10] = {0};
i16 group = 1; // default for most of the devices
u32 count = 10; // 10 data points
// 9 data points ON and 1 data point OFF constituting 90% duty cycle
f64 voltArray[10] = {1.5,1.5,1.5,1.5,1.5,1.5,1.5,1.5,1.5,0};
u32 iterations = 0; // Repeat waveform indefinitely
i16 mode = 0; // Disable FIFO mode / delay mode
f64 rate = 100000; // 100,000 points / sec
i16 units = 0; // points / sec
i16 timebase;
u32 updateInterval;
i16 whichclock = 0; // update clock
i16 operation = 1; // Start waveform initiation
Init_DA_Brds (deviceNumber, &deviceNumberCode);
WFM_Scale (deviceNumber, chan, count, gain, voltArray, binArray);
WFM_Group_Setup (deviceNumber, numChans, chanVect, group);
WFM_Load (deviceNumber, numChans, chanVect, binArray, count, iterations, mode);
WFM_Rate (rate, units, &timebase, &updateInterval);
WFM_ClockRate (deviceNumber, group, whichclock, timebase, updateInterval, mode);
WFM_Group_Control (deviceNumber, group, operation);
If I try to generate 10 KHz waveform with the same 90% duty cycle and 1.5 V amplitude, the waveform gets generated continously....
But for 100 KHz, itz generating continously....but only few waveforms....
Is there any hardware limitations ? I've tried changing the value of the timebase ( points / sec) and update interval etc...
plz help me
thanx in advance
sriram.

Sriram;
The best way to get started is to run one of the NI-DAQ shipping examples. You can find a good example at
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI-DAQ\Examples\VisualC\Ao. Take the one named WFMDoubleBuf.c.
On that example, you will just need to change the data written to the buffer to met your application's pulse train requirement.
Hope this helps.

I want to use the sound card with LabView

Hi. Who can help me, I want to use the sound card with LabView, I have found the function but I can't use it. Thanks.

Christi,
In LabVIEW 6.1 I found some examples they use those sound VIs. They are located in \examples\sound folder. Those examples should give you a good overview how to use the VIs.

How to set the specified communication channel invisible in RWB?

Hi,gurus:
We have many communication channels in our XI server.
You know that we can filter the communication channel in communicaiton channel monitoring.
Are there other methods to set the specified communication channel invisible in RWB without using filter or deleting the communication channel?
Thanks in advance.

Hey,
>Are there other methods to set the specified communication channel invisible in RWB without using filter
NO - To my Knowledge,
In RWB - you can stop/inactive the Adapter

I want to set the value to the radiobutton dynamically.How it possible

Hi all,
I want to set the value to the radio button dynamically.but its giving undefined.
below is the code...
<table>
while(rSet.next())
String sim=rSet.getString(1);
System.out.println("the sim value is:"+sim);
%>
<tr class="forsmalllabel">
<td><input type="radio" name="acsRadio"
value="<%=rSet.getString(1).toString().trim() %>" onClick="validate(this.form)" > </td>
</tr>
<% } %>
</table>
sim variable giving the correct value ...but here ..
whenever I am clicking on the button..it giving undefied message.
my script is below..
<script language="javascript">
function validate(value)
alert("the value is:"+document.ASCCodeform.acsRadio.value);
return true;
</script>
any one help me on this..
urgent.
Thank you,
D.Nagireddy.

swish is correct, it can be an array of radio button or a single button. If you have created more than one radio button your will have to use
document.ASCCodeform.acsRadio[x].valuebut if it is only one you will make it:
document.ASCCodeform.acsRadio.value
