MacBook to TV via Amp, no audio

I would like to play my Mac book pro retina through my Yamaha amp via HDMI, I get video to TV but no sound, only from mac speakers..any help please?

Hello Linesy1961,
The following article contains a few things worth looking at when trying to use your TV as a display for your MacBook Pro.
OS X Mountain Lion: Use a television as a display
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10671
Connect your Mac to your TV
Connect the video cable (and adapter, if necessary) from the computer’s video output port on your computer to the video input port on the TV.
If you want your HDTV to play audio as well as video from your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Sound, and then click Output. Select your HDTV or AV receiver from the list of devices.Note: If your Mac has a Mini DisplayPort, make sure you use a cable (and adapter, if necessary) that supports both audio and video.
Change the sample rate of the audio
Open Audio MIDI Setup.
Click your TV’s speakers in the list at the left.
Choose a new sample rate from the Format pop-up menu.
Cheers,
Allen

Macbook: Turn off screen while streaming audio

I want to use my macbook for an input in my audio system. I am going to stream audio, but because I intend to use it in a darkened room, I wish to be able to make the screen shut off. Is there a command to do that or another way to do it?
Thanks.

Yes, you can put the screen/display to sleep by creating a "Hot Corner"
Open the Desktop & Screen saver Preferences, click Hot Corners (bottom left) and select one of the four screen corners and then select "Sleep Display."
When you are streaming, just move your cursor to that particular corner and there you are.

Can't connect iPhone 5s to macbook pro retina via bluetooth

Just downloaded Yosemite and am trying to pair my iPhone 5s to my macbook pro retina via bluetooth to take advantage of call handoff. I cannot get the pairing to work. It appears to try to connect, sends the pair code to my phone and I accept, but then fails. My phone mysteriously shows two available options for my Macbook Pro. Can't figure that out either. I tried resetting my network settings on my phone, and did a two button reset on my phone as well. Any suggestions?

I have a feeling this is a Yosemite bug (or iOS 8). I'm getting the same error message, and I also have 2 copies of my macbook air (2013) showing up on my phone (iphone 6 plus) . Bluetooth is on for both devices, its just still telling me it cant get network access even after momentarily saying its connected and giving me a pair code.
Update: Unpairing the phone and re-pairing doesn't fix anything. Still get a pair code, then it immediately disconnects.

No sound on VIA high definition audio controller (i think)

This is what should make sound on my laptop:
04:01.0 Audio device: VIA Technologies, Inc. VIA High Definition Audio Controller (rev 10)
aplay -l shows:
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: VT82xx [HDA VIA VT82xx], device 0: VT1708 Analog [VT1708 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: VT82xx [HDA VIA VT82xx], device 6: Si3054 Modem [Si3054 Modem]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
I have tried both the snd_hda_intel and snd_via82xx drivers but they both don't work... even with this modprobe.conf:
alias char-major-116 snd
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss
No sound whatsoever though

Try using the ac97_quirk option in modprobe.conf:
options snd-via82xx ac97_quirk=n
Where n ranges from 0 to 3. Start with 0 and work your way up.

I transferred files and photos from MacBook to iMac via ethernet cable and using migration assistant. However every time I transferred, it created a separate user and it transferred all files and photos again and again. So now I have 3 users accounts ?

I transferred files and photos from MacBook to iMac via ethernet cable and using migration assistant. However every time I transferred, it created a separate user and it transferred all files and photos again and again. So now I have 3 users accounts with all files and photos saved 3 times on same iMac !! Any idea how to avoid this ?

Yes, you ran into a very understandable problem.
When you use Migration Assistant, it cannot over-write the account that you happen to be using at the time. Upon migrating accounts, it will tell you that it is going to create a new one, but that message is easy to miss.
If you have three identical accounts, log in to the account you want to keep, and delete the redundant ones in System Preferences > Users & Groups.
Now that you know, the easiest way to migrate accounts is to use Setup Assistant when you first get a new Mac. That eliminates any possibility for this to occur, but most people are so eager to use their new Mac that they elect to migrate later.
That's OK too, but in that case you would want to create a temporary account whose sole purpose is to run Migration Assistant so that you may migrate your old one with an identical name. Be sure to give the new account Administrator privileges. When that finishes you would log in to the newly migrated account, and delete the temporary account.

Some external ones do not work with the Mac's although most do. There are some driver compadibility issues with Mavericks, so I would wait for an update.

What audio cable do I need to hook from macbook pro to an amp?

Yeah, just wondering if any audio cable will work to hook from Macbook Pro (10..5.8) to an amp? Not skilled in this area at all! thanks!

It would help to know what inputs your amp has, what outputs your computer has, and what you are trying to accomplish.

Macbook Pro to HDTV via HDMI no audio with video

So I plugged in my MBP to my tv via HDMI this weekend and for some reason I was getting no audio when trying to watch a video online. I tried multiple websites to see if that was the issue, but nothing seemed to work. I was using Chrome but didn't try any other browsers. The video played but I would get no audio through my tv. The kicker was that when I played a song from iTunes, the audio would work just fine through the tv. Has anyone ran into this problem?

Morning kirstenpolley,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you know the hdmi cable is good.
You may want to try a different input channel or a different display adapter.
For more information on this, take a look at this article:

Can I connect my macbook to a hifi amp from the headphone out to the aux input via jack/phono

the q' is in the title

Hi,
Maybe the Apple TV would be the most elegant solution. However you have posted your question in the wrong forum so not likely to get any answers here.
best of luck,

Macbook to TV via DVI-HDMI cable - video delay

Hello All,
I have my Macbook, on occasion, attached to my Samsung LCD via Apple's mini DVI to DVI adapter, plugged into a DVI to HDMI cable, which is attached to my TV. The audio is routed from the headphone jack on the Macbook to the associated Audio input on the TV.
Problem I'm having, is that the video seems delayed to the TV, by a matter of milliseconds. I've verified this by putting the Macbook in mirror mode, and I can visually see the changes in picture on the Macbook a few milliseconds before the TV displays them. Since the audio is perfect and real time, I'm looking at video on the TV that's out of sync with the audio, albeit by a few milliseconds.
I don't think the picture problem can be solved - it's most likely just the nature of the technology, as the signal can pass much faster to the internal display than an external, and the TV in general might be causing the delay as well. I've tried video game mode, and setting the TV as the primary display, and it does not help.
So now, what I'm looking for, is an application that I can launch when I want to use this setup that will delay the audio out of the headphone jack. If I can delay the audio at the same rate as the picture, than I'm all set.
Does anyone know of a program that can do this? Ideally, I'd love to have this program run when FrontRow is enabled.
Thanks for any help you can provide!
-Mark

Good luck on finding a program that will delay the audio. Perhaps running the audio through an amp and then to your monitor would "slow" it down a trifle. Maybe the video "slows" down converting from DVI to HDMI?
Seems like a lot of trouble for a little gain.
