Macbook Pro Windows 7 no audio

I was able to install Windows 7 on my MBP, installed graphics drivers perfectly. Only thing I cant figure out is getting the audio to work. Some people suggested downloading Realtek audio drivers which I tried but those too were unsuccessful. Any of you guys figured it out yet or could point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Try this.
Boot into Windows 7.
Insert Leopard DVD for Boot Camp Drivers. Don't auto-run the installer. Navigate to the drivers folder and there you find the individual .exe files files for each driver.
Right click on the RealTek driver and select 'troubleshoot installation'. Windows will ask you several questions, but basically the gist of it is to tell Windows that 'This driver used to work OK in Vista'. You can answer all of the questions as 'Don't know' or 'Other'. Provided you say that it worked in Vista, you should be fine.
This work for me with the 64-bit version on my iMac 24". I didn't bother downloading from the realtek website.
If you've installed the 64-bit version, make sure you use the 64-bit driver. I don't know if this technique will work for the 32-bit version, but I don't see why not.

  • Using MacBook Pro as Digital Optical Audio bridge...

    I have an idea for my MacBook Pro, but I'd like to know if it's feasible before I go and buy what I'd need to test my plan:
    I have an Xbox 360 with digital optical audio out (TOSlink), and I have a MacBook Pro with digital optical audio in (through the 3.5mm minijack on the side. So far I'm A-OK.
    Now, I'd like to know if I can have the Xbox's output go into the MacBook Pro's input, and route that audio signal through the MacBook Pro to either (a) the stereo output of the MacBook Pro, or (b) (preferred) my 5.1 decoder on my Griffin FireWave.
    Every time I use the Xbox, I have to unplug the audio from my speakers to the Griffin FireWave, and that's a pain because the wires are all behind my desk. If I could route the audio through my MacBook Pro, then everything would be perfect. Is this possible?
    And if this isn't possible, can I use an old iMic adapter I have laying around to route the audio through the MBP?
    Thanks for your help!

    I found a program called LineIn that allows 'software audio pass through in to out,' but I don't think this will pass the 5.1 channel audio through to my FireWire-connected Griffin Firewave.
    Does anyone know of any way this can be done? Do you think the Audio/MIDI Setup Utility application can be of any use with this? Or is there a way to pass the digital signal straight through to the Griffin?

  • Can I transfer my email in outlook on my macbook pro (windows for mac) onto my ipad mini?Help!?

    can I transfer my email in outlook on my macbook pro (windows for mac) onto my ipad mini?Help!?

    Outlook is an email client and that does not indicate if your email is POP or IMAP. If you have an IMAP email account, all of your emails actions will automatically sync across your devices. If you have POP, it does not work that way.
    If you are asking if you can transfer the current emails on the Mac onto the iPad, no you cannot, unless the email is an IMAP account and they can download onto the iPad again from the server.

  • Early 2011 macbook pro, windows 8.1 bootcamp crashes

    Hi,
    I have some problems with running windows 8.1 on my macbook. I have managed to manipulate Bootcamp so I can create a bootable USB, the installation went fine and windows is booting correctly. The problem I have is with the installation of the bootcamp drivers. During the installation of the intel Video drivers I get a BSOD and shows me the following SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED(igdkmd64.sys). I already troubleshooted the problem and now the problem is wih the intel hd graphics 3000 drivers. and tried the following to fix the problem.
    -     Follow the normal apple bootcamp installation.
    -     Try the installation of the newest intel drivers.
    -     Use windows update to search for drivers
    -     Tried multiple installation and windows 8.1 copies.
    this all ended in the same result during the installation, a crash with the same error. This crash also happens when I am not trying to install anything.
    Here is some more information about my setup.
    -      macbook pro 15 inch early 2011
    -      2 hard drives 1 ssd for my windows installation and the other for OS X Yosemite
    -     Windows 8.1 enterprise ISO
    -     Newest bootcamp Drivers
    I am stuck here and can find nothing that works, I have now tried the installation about 20 times but every time the same thing. I know this configuration works becuase I had it before.
    Thanks in advance!

  • Macbook Pro does not play audio part of video

    Hi,
    I have a Macbook Pro (early 2013 with OS 10.10.1).
    A colleague sent me a video file, which was originally recorded in MTS format. The sound portion of it does not play on my machine, although it generally can handle MTS. I have a colleague with a Windows PC, for him the audio plays ok. I have another colleague with an older MBP, for him the audio also plays ok. But then I have two more colleagues with a newer MBP like me, and for none of us the audio plays at all. The strange thing is that I can open the file in various editors such as Premiere, Audition, or Logic Pro, and they would all show the waveform of the audio, even the VU meters react normally, but there still is no audible sound.
    On the machines that play the sound, we have tried converting the video and exporting the audio portion into various other formats, but with the very same result. None of them play sound for me. This is extremely weird and we have no answer what could be the problem.
    Any help would be very much appreciated.
    Thanks a lot & best regards,
    Rainer

    Hi Eric,
    thanks for the reply.
    As I said, we had tried several editors and players, as well as all kinds of formats, using all kinds of converters, but so far to no avail.
    The AAC codec is a common codec for the Mac, so there should be no need to convert it. I have videos with that codec that play ok. It already turned out that converting the video file to other formats does not make any difference.
    But thanks anyway,
    Rainer

  • Sound problem on Macbook Pro (Windows 7)

    I have installed windows7 on late 2011 macbook pro but sound not working.
    I have used bootcamp for installation.
    Also the audio jack emitting red light.
    Please help

    Assuming you are running Lion or Mountain Lion, did you download the Windows Support software when you ran Bootcamp Assistant? Did you save the Windows Support software per the instructions you printed from within Bootcamp Assistant? Did you install the Windows Support Software from within Windows per the instructions in Bootcamp Assistant?
    If you are running Snow Leopard the Windows Support Software is not downloaed it is on your Snow Leopard install disk.

  • Macbook Pro Compatibility With M-Audio FW410 audio interface

    Folks, my old trustee PowerPC G5 recently blew up and hence I'm now switching all of my Logic / Audio setup to my Intel, Macbook Pro laptop.
    2 questions for you all...
    1. Why does my Macbook Pro not seem to recognise my FW410 interface (just flashes blue light at me) despite attempting to update the interface's driver (tried a few different options, none of which work)
    2. Presuming I can get it to work with my Macbook Pro, will the FW410 function, like it did previously using my G5. without the need for a power adapter, or will I need to use the 12v adapter? It's impossible to say right now as the Macbook Pro won't even acknowledge its existence!
    Much appreciated if there's any help you can throw my way.

    I find the creative suite to be painfully slow on my MBP (17" C2D 2.33Ghz, 2GB RAM). Of course it does depend how heavy you are using it. But basically I cannot use photoshop or AE under mac OSX, it drives me nuts. FOr light projects I just switch to parallels, they usually work smoother running under parallels with only 1GB RAM allocated to windows. ANd for serious stuff I switch to bootcamp so they get the full 2GB... cant wait for CS3!

  • MacBook Pro Boot Camp Sound Audio Drivers Do Not Work with Miscrosoft Vista

    I installed Vista via Boot Camp on my new 15" i7 MacBook Pro. After full MS Vista patching and Apple Boot Camp driver installation, the sound/audio does not work.
    After some searching on the net, I've noticed that this is perhaps a widespread problem. Are there any solutions or an indication of when this will be fixed?

    When you mean no sound, do you get the volume slider but nothing comes out or do you not get the volume slider at all?
    Go to control panel, sound (you might need to switch to classic view to see the one im on about), then the "sounds" tab, there should be audio clips that you should be able to play, if the laptop has picked up the sound controller in it.
    If you cant play these (greyed out) then the driver isnt installed properly.
    There should be a update option in the boot camp program that is installed in your vista partition, run that, and if it fails you can try what is below.
    Try going into device manager, uninstall/remove the drivers under the heading "sound, game and audio controllers" reboot the machine and it should install them back in again.
    If it doesnt and asks for a disc, then they'll be on your max os x disc, but not sure you can install drivers individually this way. might have to reinstall the boot camp drivers from scratch.
    Ive had this proplem on PC's (not macs) with drivers from manufacturer of the machines not working after windows updates. Fixed by using drivers from the audio controller manufacturer. But dont think its the same issue you are having.

  • Macbook Pro XP Boot Camp Audio Problem

    I've got a uni body Macbook Pro running XP with boot camp. Everything has been fine for the last 4 or 5 months I've had it. In the last few weeks though, I've been having really annoying audio problems. The only reason I have it XP even installed is for games (Battlefield 2 and Steam). I'd run skype to talk to a buddy and then play the game. Audio was fine, including the mic.
    Lately, skype will just shut down out of no where and give me that error message where it asks you to send a report. Also, the audio in Battlefield 2 will just cut out. I'd still be in the game and connected but there would be no audio, except for the game VOIP. Remember things were working fine for months.
    First I tried repairing with the Mac disk, then I tried different Real Tek drivers, then I tried uninstalled and reinstalling the game. None of that worked. Finally, I nuked the partition and did a clean install. The first thing I installed was BF2. Guess what. SAME EXACT PROBLEM. Audio cut out about 10 minutes in. In game VOIP was fine but all other audio was gone.
    Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas at ALL? There aren't exactly a bunch of different drivers I can try, and like I said I've already tried reinstalled the drivers from the mac disk. I have no idea what else to do.
    tl:dr - new mbp audio worked fine for months, lately audio in games totally cuts out. Tried reinstalled game, drivers, etc, didn't work. Nuked from orbit and did clean bootcamp install of XP. Battlefield 2 has same problem, same with skype. What next?

    What anti-virus solution are you running in Windows?
    Users have experienced crashes and blue screens of death from Norton products. Norton has resolved these issues in their 2009 product line. I would only recommend Norton 2009 products, Kaspersky, and AVG for anti-virus solutions.
    Have you formatted your Windows partition as NTFS, or has it been formatted as Fat 32?
    Fat 32 will not handle file sizes of 3.5 GB or larger, and, overall, it seems to always cause issues.
    Have you tried a SMC reset?

  • Macbook Pro Retina External Display Audio

    I am looking to get a Macbook Pro Retina 13" and I want to connect an external monitor to use as my primary display when at my desk.  How would I get audio to work when my Macbook is closed and I am just using the external display.  (Using DVI-D cable)

    I have a new rMBP 15 and I am having a major problem with hooking up to external projection systems. Otherwise, it's a fantastic computer for running Windows (required for work) and Mac, my preference.
    I have to often hook up to an external projector at various companies for presentations and I never know which type of projector they will have. Most are VGA and and most do not work with the Apple TB-VGA because it sees them as 640x480. I finally found a solution with an "active" VGA adaptor from Cirago:
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005AT2KTK/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&p sc=1
    However, now that I have higher resolution the image is blurry much like the OP but even worse and not usable. I am going to experiment with various settings I have found on other posts and forums, but most are specific to a fixed setup, whereas I need plug&play and don't have the time to fiddle with settings before each presentation.
    My fear is that I may have to abandon the rMBP and revert to my old clunker DELL, due only to this one major issue issue.

  • I am about to buy a 13" MacBook Pro with 256 GB SSD drive.  I want a i am about to buy a MacBook Pro Windows partition set up.  How large should it be, and can I use XP Pro or does it need to be Win 7 or 8?

    You can use XP but it has to be in a Virtual Machine and OS X as the host instead of as a dual boot system with XP in its own partition. That is how I run Windows on my Mac, in a Virtual Machine.
    Take a look at VritualBox from Oracle. It's free and works very well.

  • Connecting my MacBook Pro to a Classroom Audio-Video System

    Dear Mac Community,
    I recently got a new MacBook Pro from my local Apple Store here in Spokane. It's running 10.8.5. Until now, I've been connecting my old MacBook Pro via a Mini Display port to VGA adapter in a classroom at a local university where I teach a course and I've been able to show all documents and presentations that I can open on my MacBook Pro. My new Mac has a Thunderbolt port instead of the old mini dispay port. When I use my mini display port to VGA adapter I'm getting a screen with a timer and set of options I haven't seen before, but what's on my Mac's screen is no longer showing on the projector's screen as it did before I got my new MacBook Pro. They're using a Mac Mini which is set by default to Windows 7 or something and some generic monitor. After problem solving for a while I noticed that when I move my cursor I have access to two displays, the one on my lap top and the display connected to the university's display monitor. I'm okay with this discovery, however try as I might I can't see any of the documents that I created on my computer, including, Pages or Word documents, nor can I show any of the web sites that I open in my browser. Neither can I show pictures from my iPhoto folder which usually open in Preview. The only documents I can show on the projector after some navigating are Keynote presentations.
    I have a thunderbolt cable but the classroom is equipped with a male VGA connector which as far as I can discern is the only way to access the projector attached to the ceiling. Is there a way around this challenge that will allow me to show my students everything that I pull up on my MacBook Pro screen as I was able to do with the old Mac with the mini display port? Is there a thunderbolt to VGA adapter that will eliminate this problem?
    Sorry this was so long winded, I would appreciate any helpful suggestions around this challenge.
    Thank you,
    trinibass.

    You have enabled Extended desktop, which combines the two displays along an edge of your choosing. The mouse moves freely across the two displays, and can carry a window with it. You can even drop a window so that half is on each display, and it will scroll "the right way".
    This visual is from the arrangement tab in displays preferences:
    Note that these icons are proportional to the pixels on each display. You can re-arrange them by dragging. The white bar is the menuBar, which can be dragged to either display.

  • Does my mid 2010 macbook pro's displayport support audio (in addition to the video I know it supports)?

    I have been using my displayport to drive a video only HDMI input by way of a displayport to DVI converter followed by a DVI to HDMI converter. It works great but of course there's no audio at the end of that chain because DVI is a video only connector.
    That made me wonder... is my displayport outputting both audio and video which could be converted directly to HDMI (giving me both audio and video at the HDMI end)? How can I tell if my mid-2010 macbook pro's displayport connector is outputting both audio and video? My internet search is inconclusive about whether both are available on that connector for my mid 2010 model macbook pro.
    Thank you.

    Hi, these MacBooks of 2010 support Audio through display port:
    MacBook Mid 2010 (GeForce 320M)
    MacBook Air 11 inch 2010 or 13 inch 2010 (Core 2 Duo)
    MacBook Pro 13 inch 2010 (GeForce 320M)
    MacBook Pro 15 inch 2010 or 17 inch 2010 (GeForce 330M),
    No 2009 Macs support audio through DisplayPort
    All 2011 and latter Macs support displayPort audio
    so it looks like you can get audio if yo have the Macbook with Geforce 320M
