IPOD Classic - Can I play music through HDMI

I have a TV with HDMI in
Bought a non Apple cable to play music through HDMI input
Can I PLay music through any HDMI convertor cable
Thanks

The iPod classic supports composite or component video. Unless you have something with enough smarts in the cable to convert that to HDMI then it isn't going to happen. There are no apps for the iPod classic and it doesn't have the hardware. Does the TV have component, composite, S-Video or SCART inputs? Any of these could be driven from the classic.

  • My 160GB ipod classic stopped whilst playing music and will not turn back on despite having almost a full battery. I have tried connecting to itunes and a docking station but will not turn on at all - HELP?!

    My 160GB ipod classic stopped whilst playing music and will not turn back on despite having almost a full battery. I have tried connecting to itunes and a docking station but will not turn on at all - HELP?!
    I've had this from new for 2 years, the battery life is excellent and lasts for days so I know it's not a power issue as it was fully charged that morning. No signs of connection in itunes, it's not showing as a connected device.
    Can anyone please help?

  • My ipod fourth generation only play music through headphones cant play on it's internal speaker

    my ipod fourth generation only play music through headphones cant play on it's internal speaker

    - Insert/remove the headphne plug a dozen times or so. Clean out/blow out the headphone jact.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. You likey have a bad headphone jack.

    Should be able to go into your sound preferences and choose your output device, you can also try downloading Airfoil and try that, it's a pretty cool app.

    Unfortunately the Netgear DG834N router is rubbish with Macbook Pro's. I've had a few netgear routers, which were all good with my mac, which is why I bought the 'N' series one as an upgrade to the 'G' version, but basically it crashes my Mac constantly. I get the fade up grey screen forcing my to hard power off my book. everything freezes. It plain just doesn't work. wireless 'N' is still just in draft form and the difference between the Netgear and Mac version on the macbook pro just clash. Netgear haven't updated the firmware on the router since last year, so hopefully the will soon, but I've just gone back to my old 'G' version, and stuck the DG834N on ebay. I tried all the configs, with and with out security and no luck, it always disconnected, froze and crashed.

  • Ipod Touch is not playing music through doc.

    Ipod Touch (3rd gen) is not playing music through doc.  No problem until yesterday.  It still works fine off doc but as of yesterday it will only either charge (most of the time) or play music (rare), Not both.  Also the message "accessory is not supported by ipod touch" periodically shows up on the ipod touch screen.
    My other daughters ipod touch (2nd gen) works on this doc as normal.  Also, both of these ipod touches still work on my 2nd daughters stereo doc normally.
    Both are on software 4.2.1

    Look into the dock connector on the problem iPod.  Look for dirt, debris, bent or broken connector and other abnormalities.  Compare with the working iPod.

  • My iPod touch won't play music through the dock speakers

    The other day I went to plug my IPod touch into my dock to play some music, as i do every night. My dock seemed fine, my IPod started charging, but when i turned the music on it only played out of the IPod speakers, not out of the dock. i figured it was the dock that was broken, so i plugged my IPod into my backup dock and it did the exact same thing. The only way i can get my IPod to play music out of the dock is to plug it in through the headphone jack. My IPod still plays music out loud so i have no idea what's wrong.

    There is another thread entitled "brand new iPod touch 4th gen will not sit on dock of Sony Dream Machine" that mentions similar problems and claims to be resolved. Actually it is not. Some say that there is a plastic piece to bend but it is unspecified which one they are thinking of and which way to "bend" it. Besides, I am not sure any guaranty will work if one does this kind of work on the iPod. It would be preferable if someone from Apple would take responsibility and mention what has to be done or if there will be a recall of the items with a modified system.

  • Can I play music through AirPort other than through iTunes?

    Hey, I think this is a dumb question, but I'll ask it anyway. Can I set up my AirPort to play music that's not coming to it through iTunes, or is that the only way to feed music to my AirPort Express? For instance, if I wanted to play AOL Radio (which has its own player, not through iTunes), can I do so? Thanks for your help!

    Take a look at the program "Airfoil" by Rogue Amoeba.

  • I have a Motorola H730 can I play music through it...

    I can pair this device no problem but it will not play music.  This would be nice at work if it could play music.  I only hear the voice commands through the headset but no music.

    Does it support A2DP?
    If not, then it won't play music.

  • IPhone 4 using iOS 6.0.1 will not play music through my car stereo

    I have an iPhone 4 since it became available on Verizon's network.  I have had no issues with my phone since I began using it.  I own a 2008 VW Rabbit with the optional iPhone/iPod docking station to play music through the car's stereo.  I purchased a docking extention cable because my phone would not fit on the docking connector properly due to my phone case.  Everything has been working beautifully, sans the charging feature, until a few weeks ago.  Normally, I would start the iPod app, load the song or playlist I want to play, and plug it in to begin hearing my music.  However, recently the music stopped playing through my car speakers and only played through the built-in speakers on my phone once plugged into the docking station.  I have tried hard-rebooting (holding home button/sleep button at same time until Apple logo appears), soft rebooting (holding sleep button to slide power off), exiting all open apps, opening/closing iPod app, changing different settings through the Settings app, etc.  I am at my wits' end.  I use my phone to listen to my loaded music, Pandora and Slacker Radio.  It has gotten really boring listening to local radio during my commutes.  Please Community, help me!

    i have same problem in UK - my phone no longer works with my car cable - it will charge the phone, my ipad works fine, as does my old itouch so I know that the cable is ok.  It comes up with no connection even though it is charging it. It used to be fine I dont understand why this would happen?

  • Can't play music from Universal Dock when iPod classic plugged in

    According to the iPod classic manual, one can play music or video while the iPod is connected to the computer or AC power to be charged up. However, this is not working for me. Instead, it says "Connected", and won't actually let me play music unless I unplug the USB cable. I have set iTunes to NOT start automatically, otherwise it will just sync over and over again, and still never play music. I know the iPod and dock are working correctly because if I unplug the USB cable from my computer, it plays music through the dock as expected. Suggestions? Thanks.

    Alas, not so easy. No matter what way I use to eject it from iTunes, once it stops with the "Ok to disconnect" bit, if it is still in the cradle (which it needs to be for playing), it toggles back to Connected, and the following dialog box from iTunes pops up, saying:
    "The iPod <name of iPod> cannot be ejected because it contains files that are in use by another application."
    The only application using it is iTunes. I've tried exiting iTunes quickly, no joy. [Aside to discussion forum moderators: There doesn't seem to be a way to paste in a bitmap to show the dialog. Oh well.]
    I just found a work-around, basically telling Windows at the OS level to remove the iPod qua USB device (usual way, right-click on the Safely Remove Hardware icon, choose the drive letter associated with the iPod), and that seems to do it. The battery icon is in the AC power state, so it's still on external power even though the OS doesn't see it. So maybe that's good enough. Although that's still something that iTunes ought to be doing, I would think.

  • How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver. I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. thanks

    How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver? I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. There are 4 HDMI-in ports on the receiver - BD, DVD, DVR/BDR and audio. In my system preferences for sound, the receiver doesn't show up as an output option. Can anyone please advise. (ps, this is my first time posting a question, so I hope I can find your answers!) thanks, JP downunder

    For sound, try the audio output port and connecting to the RCA  audio input ports on your Pioneer receiver.  Use something like this:
