No Audio using Moshi mini display + HDMI cable

Hi Guys,
I now have video but no audio when connecting my macbook pro to my digital TV.  TV is Teac HDMI and using moshi mini-display and HDMI cable.

How old is your MBP?  MBP's early than mid-2010 do not support audio through the mini-displayport.

  • How can I connect my MBA 11" 2012  to my Imac 21.5" mid 2010 as a display unit. Connected using a mini display port cable and this did not work. Any guidance welcome. Thanks. John

    I bought a belkin mini display unit cable( new) and connected the thunderbolt port in the MBA ( 11" , mid 2012) to the Imac mini display unit port using this cable. Pressed the CMD & F2 keys on the Imac keyboard as required but this did not work. Should I try with another cable ? Should i try with a thunderbolt cable ( recommended by appple support ) -- but they too were not sure about this. Is the Mid 2010 21.5" Imac not able to function as an display unit? Any guidance would help and will be much appreciated.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Only the 27-inch iMac and Mid 2011 and newer iMacs can be used as an external screen, so you can't use your Mac as an external screen. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11302
    You can still use your iMac as an external display, using an application like ScreenRecycler

  • Is there a way to run dual monitors using a mini display port cable?

    I want to connect my 21.5-inch, Mid 2010 iMac to my 13-inch, Mid 2010 MacBook Pro and run dual monitors with the cable because they don't have thunderbolt plugs. I wan't to use two displays for Logic Pro to expand my real estate. I'm not looking to spend over $50 on crazy adapters so cheaper options would be great.
    Thanks

    no audio when using a mini display port to HDMI cable to TV on my Macbook pro. can only see the video

    I keep saying this over and over, in the hope that people who do a search will find it.  Apple cannot possibly test for or be reponsible for the bazillion combinations of adapter, cables, and TV's out there.  The only monitors that are 100% guaranteed to work with the MacBook Pro are the Cinema Displays and Thunderbolt Displays, because, they're made by Apple.  They're expensive, but they work perfectly.
    My guess is that you bought a cheap MDP to HDMI cable, or have a defective one.  From my reading of these boards over the past few months, cheap cables have a high failure rate.  And the regular priced ones have only a slightly less of one.  Try a new one.  Make sure you do not damage the Thunderbolt port.

  • Help using a mini display port to HDMI cable with MacBook Air and TV

    Hi, Apple gurus. I need help setting up my MacBook Air to my Vizio TV using a mini display port to HDMI cable that I just purchased on Amazon.
    And here's info about my MacBook Air:
    In the Amazon reviews, someone posted the following how-tos, which aren't working for me:
    1. Plug in both ends, mini display port on your macbook and the HDMI on any available port on your LCD.
    2. Go to upper left Apple menu and scroll down to system preference. Or use your FINDER from the dock, go to applications, then system preference.
    3. Click on Displays
    4. Click on DETECT DISPLAY
    5. A similar screen pops up with name of your LCD, mine says SONY LCD, click on ARRANGEMENT
    6. Click the box that says MIRROR DISPLAYS.
    7. Go back into system preferences and go to SOUNDS which is located under HARDWARE.
    8. Click on OUTPUT, then select HDMI, which should be listed next to your LCD name.
    I ran into trouble at step #4. My MacBook Air doesn't list the option of "detecting display." I do, however, have the box mentioned in step #6, "Show mirroring options in the menu bar when available."
    Regarding step #8, HDMI didn't appear in the list — I only see "internal speakers."
    So, what am I doing wrong? Or, did I buy the wrong cable?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Or you need to get an appropriate adaptor. The Griffin adaptor sold on Apple's Online Store will work with a standard HDMI cable.

  • Can i use a hdmi to mini display port cable to use my iMac as external monitor for a windows laptop?

    Does anyone know if a hdmi to mini display port cable can be used to link a  windows laptop with an 27 inch iMac to use the iMac as an external monitor. Or are there other options to connect my DELL latitude 6430?

    Is the 3.5mm-to-optical cable any better than using a standard 3.5mm?  I don't know too much about this stuff.  My thought process was that if the source of the connection is a 3.5mm jack, does it make a difference using a cable that starts as a 3.5 and converts to optical?
    Chances are excellent that if your receiver is less than 20 years old it has an optical input, this is a digital signal which will sound MUCH MUCH better than using an analog 3.5MM to 3.5MM connection. I recommend using the cable suggested or one with the same connections but of a different length if your needs warrant it.

  • Thunderbolt mini display port cable to HDMI not registering

    I recently purchased a 6" mini display port to HDMI Cable. When I connected my macbook to my HDMI on my TV the macbook pro does not show the screen as a display option. When I go to system prefrences and under displays the tv is not showing up under arrangements. The only options I have is Display and color, I do not have an arrangement option. My TV doesn't seem to see the computer either.
    I have a thunderbolt port but the cable says it's for a mini display port but works with Thunderbolt, I've used similar mini display cables before with the thunderbolt with no issues. I'm on an early 2011 macbook pro running 10.6.8
    Thanks!

    You may have better luck getting a response/answer if you post the question in the MacBook Pro discussion here.

  • Using the mini DVI - DVI cable with HDMI LCD screen?

    Hi,
    I bought the apple mini DVI - DVI connector to connect my imac to the back of my plasma. I have a 3 meter DVI cable to extend the mini DVI - DVI connector.
    It worked fine but the plasma is not so good for my purposes as i am using the set up to display images.
    I have just bought an LG LCD TV for a very good price.
    However the LG LCD does not have DVI socket! It has HDMI.
    Is there a cable available that is DVI (female) - HDMI?
    And will this work in theory?
    Any advise is much appreciated...
    Thanks

    Hi Network 23,
    Im not sure what you mean exactly?
    Which adapters and cables are you using between TV and Mac?
    My PowerBook and MacBook Pro have a DVI port, so I start there. I guess you're starting from the DVI port at the end of your adapter cable. At this point we both start from a standard DVI port.
    From there I attach the DVI-HDMI adapter I linked to earlier, and then between that and the HDMI port on the TV, I use a simple, inexpensive HDMI cable also bought at monoprice.com. While you could also use a DVI-HDMI cable, I chose to use a DVI-HDMI adapter so that I could use standard HDMI cables, since I anticipate buying more HDMI components in the future.

  • Im having trouble connecting my macbookpro to the tv. im using a mini display port to hdmi adapter, when i switch tv/video to hdmi on the tv nothing pops up, and i dont have the arrangement tap on the display settings, please help!

    I've found that the order of operations, so-to-speak, can be important when hooking up mini display port to HDMI.  I have the most success with the following operations in this order:
    1)  Plug HDMI cable into mini displayport adapter (the cable should not be plugged into either the TV or the computer at this point)
    2)  Plug the mini displayport end of your new super-cable to the computer.
    3)  Plug the HDMI end into your TV.
    4)  Switch inputs on your TV to the proper input.
    5)  If still nothing on the TV, try a different HDMI port on your TV.
    Hopefully this helps!  Good luck.

  • I have lost all sound on macbook pro 10.6 and in ITunes can no longer play any cinema or tv shows purchased.  I believe it may have been caused by recent use of mini-display port   Toslink Audio to the TV.  What can be done?

    I no longer have any sound on my macbookpro 10.6.8, not even beginning chime.
    Furthermore, I find that I no longer have any images as well as no sound, from any
    of my Itunes cinema, tv show purchases, etc.
    I recently watched last week a couple of tv episodes through my TV
    using a Mini Display Port + Toslink Audio purchased at Apple.
    I use this device occasionally and haven't had any  problems til now.
    Any suggestions to right the problem?.

    In System Preferences>Sound do you have your internal speakers set as the output source?
    You may have toggled on optical output with the Toslink cable - check to see if there's a red light coming from the port. If so, quickly plug and unplug a set of headphones for a number of times to see if you can toggle the switch back from optical to the internal speakers.
    Good luck,
    Clinton
