IMac and LG Sound Bar

Hi,
I have a late 2012 iMac 27-inch. I have an LG Sound bar that I want to use with the Mac for watching movies and playing music etc. I have paired the sound bar with the Mac via Bluetooth, it pairs fine and the sound comes through. However, the sound is not in sync with whats on the screen. When I used the sound bar on the tv I was able to access the menu and adjust sync etc either through the TV or the sound bar but the sound bar menu does not come up on the Mac screen when paired (I'm not surprised by this, I didn't expect it to). Any advice on syncing sound on an iMac or how to do it another way? Any help much appreciated!
Rob.

This site covers JP1 programming, which is the connector in the battery compartment:http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/ I don't know if there is an existing code that may work, and you could do some key mapping to put the codes on the volume keys. Othewise, you would have to add your own upgrade using a JP1.x cable. You can ask on the forums to see if anyone knows something. I didn't see an obvious upgrade in the files section. Some of the more advanced people can use files from other remotes to create upgrades.

  • I  want to record a keybord connected by usb in an IMac and only           sound like an ambient microphone. What is wrong?

      I want to record a keyboard connected by usb port and only sound like an ambient microphone. What configuration is wrong? Thank you

    The optimum choice is to format it ExFAT, but do so on the PC, not the Mac. Alternatively, you can make two partitions - one for the Mac; one for the PC. Partition the drive using GUID when you make the two partitions. Format one using Mac OS Extended, Journaled. Format the other on your PC using NTFS if you won't need to write to it from the OS X side or use ExFAT if you do.
    Drive Partition and Format
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to two. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) you will use for Windows from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to MSDOS.
    6. Click on the Erase button.
    When you connect the drive to your PC reformat the PC volume to either NTFS or ExFAT.

    The sound of windows 7 on my imac doesn't work. How do i fix it?

    For me, downloading and installing drivers from Realtek worked:
    http://218.210.127.131/downloads/downloadsCheck.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=14&PFid=24&Le vel=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false
    choose:
    Vista, Windows7, Windows8 Driver (32/64bits) Driver only (Executable file)
    Worked like a charm.

  • I can't get any sound from ITunes. The computer's internal speakers are fine (they play utube sound, for example). And the sound bar on itunes is all the way to the right. Still no sound from the music library. Any insights?

    I can't get any sound from my ITunes library. The IMac is set to internal speakers, the volume bar on ITunes itself is all the way to the right, there seems to be no problem with the speakers themselves (they play sound from internet videos, for example), but I can't play music from the ITunes library on the IMac. Please help!

    Is it possible that you have iTunes set to send audio through AirPlay to an AirPort Express, Apple TV, or other AirPlay device (which is itself not turned up so you can hear it)?

  • Why does my Sony Sound bar CT60BT turn off after 15 minutes?

    I turn the volume down during the evening and when I do, it automatically turns off after about 15 minutes.  Is there a way to change the settings so that it doesnt go into standby mode?

    Hi mdalton1284,
    Your Sound Bar has an Auto Standby Function.
    It will enter standby mode automatically when you do not operate the Sound Bar for about 15 minutes and the Sound Bar is not receiving an input signal but the sound bar is receiving signal from your PS4 going to the TV via HDMI connection.
    You may try resetting the Sound Bar.
    Follow the steps below.
    Use buttons on the remote control for the operation.
    Press BASS +, VOL - , and TREBLE + in that order within 3 seconds.
    Let us know if you're getting the same result after resetting the device.
    Thanks,

  • TS3048 My early 2009 Mac Pro does not connect via bluetooth to my sound bar or bluetooth mini speakers. Both my wireless keyboard and mouse have no problems connecting. What do I need to do to connect to external bluetooth devices?

    My early 2009 Mac Pro does not connect via bluetooth to my sound bar or bluetooth mini speakers. Both my wireless keyboard and mouse have no problems connecting. What do I need to do to connect to external bluetooth devices?

    I would always have a wired keyboard and mouse on hand (need not be expensive ... any cheap wired devices will work).  "Emergency recovery" procedures can activate features in random order, so the opportunity to select a recovery partition may pass before the wireless devices are recognized.
    That will let you select the "turn on Bluetooth" icon.

  • How do i fix the sound on an iPhone 4S? When i play music the sound bar at the bottom disappeared and when i try to adjust sound with the buttons on the side, nothing happens. Also the sound in my apps is not working.

    The sound isn't working. And it also does not appear, when i try to adjuct it with the buttons the sound bar doesn't appear and when i try playing music at the bottom the sound bar disappeared. How do I fix this?

    Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.  Have you gone through ALL of these troubleshooting steps?
    If you have gone through all the troubleshooting steps and you're still having problems, you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

  • When using FaceTime, my iMac makes noises.  It dings like I am receiving an email and sometimes sounds like a busy signal, but this is while I am talking to someone. Any suggestions?

    Dear Mr. Toad (my all-time favorite ride at Disneyland ;-) ..
    Thanks so much for your detailed reply.. my netbook is in the bedroom, turned off.. I (so far) only use it in the evening, in the bedroom.. I've saved your response, and will try your suggestions, and let you know if they solve the problem I described. I really appreciate you taking the time to post such a detailed reply..
    I can't answer your Thunderbird "configuration" questions, because I'm in the living room, using the crap Vista laptop, on which I plan to install Thunderbird, and then take Windoze Mail out in the street and drive over it a few times.. I'll get back to you one way or the other, and let you know if your instructions solved the problem, or not..
    I don't understand why Thunderbird "out of the box", so to speak, simply doesn't forward HTML emails with embedded graphics, (like Outlook Excess, and Winblows Mail do).. without having to go through those steps. I personally HATE HTML email, but over the years, it's become more and more prevelant.. so it's a problem I must fix..
    Thanks again..
    Harv..

  • Ipod  blue playing bar does not move and no sound

    when i go to play music it says it is playing but there is no movement of the bar and no sound can anyone help?? thanks

    Same problem here on an iPod Nano (2nd gen). I have posted a fuller version of this question just now on the thread "Clicking to play the song but it won't play", and here it is again:
    "I have experienced exactly the same problem with an iPod Nano (2nd gen). When I try to play any track, the timer menu bar sits firmly at 0.00 and nothing plays. I have tried RESET, but this has not helped. I am beginning to think that a RESTORE will be necessary.
    1. Has anyone else found that RESET has not worked here? If so, what did you do next?
    2. I no longer have the songs on my PC. If I go into "My Computer", the drive shows as empty, so I can't even drag the files across. They show up in iTunes, but when I click on one, I get an exclamation mark appearing next to the track. Does anyone know how I can do a backup, because I know that RESTORE will delete all the tracks from the iPod?
    Thanks!"

  • Why is it that my iPhone 4 suddenly lost the sound bar in music and YouTube?  I am able to make phone calls, but otherwise my iPhone is silent.  It says that it is playing music, but no sound is emmitted, nor am I able to change this.

    Why is it that my iPhone 4 suddenly lost the sound bar in music and YouTube?  I am able to make phone calls and hear everything just fine.  but otherwise my iPhone is silent.  It says that it is playing music, but no sound is emmitted, nor am I able to change this.

    Not knowing what steps were included in "all the troubleshooting possible with Apple people," I'll suggest you give the phone a chance to reprovision your cellular account.
    First turn off Wi-Fi. Then power off your phone. Hold the Sleep/Wake button until you see the power off slider. Then slide to power off. Turn the phone back on. After the phone starts watch to see if No Serive is displayed. Hopefully after 15-30 seconds that will change to the name of your cellular service provider and finally indicate LTE or 4G as well as include some dots indicating signal strength. You can then turn Wi-Fi back on.

    Try reset all settings.
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings.  It won't delete any data.

  • There is no sound bar in videos and applications

    There is no sound bar in videos and no sound in applications. It appears only when i connect my car charge.

    Check if there is any volume limit set. Choose settings, then iPod and then Volume Limit turn it up and lock it
