Optical audio output not working on mac mini

I have a brand new mac mini (less than a week old) that I've hooked up to my media center. Unfortunately, when I hook the optical audio output to my Pioneer receiver, I get no sound. I know the receiver decodes optical audio correctly because it does so with my DVD player and my Xbox. I have tried all 4 optical inputs on the receiver, and have tried two different optical cables, as well as 2 different optical adaptors (required by mac mini to go from TOSLINK to the mini TOSLINK output on the mac). This tells me that all signs point to the problem being with the mac audio optical output stage itself. I have called apple technical support and have had it looked at, at an apple store. Unfortunately, the apple store does not carry a device where the audio output could be plugged in to verify that no sound is delivered. Apple refuses to replace the unit because I cannot prove to them that the problem is with the mac mini and not with the pioneer receiver. I find this incredible. My first experience (and quite possibly my last) with a mac has proven to be a nightmare.
Before I contemplate returning the unit and demanding my money back, is there any help anyone can provide....some magic bullet I've overlooked? Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks....

Thanks for the reply. Yes, when I plug in the optical cable to the mac, it senses it correctly and changes from "Internal Speakers" to "Digital Out" under the sound system preferences. Also, there is definitely red light coming out of the other end of the cable. That only tells me that the "carrier frequency" of light is most probably being generated, but not that the digital audio information is being modulated on top of it.
Any other ideas? Out there?

  • Open firmware commands do not work on Mac mini

    Open firmware commands do not work on Mac mini. At least on Mac mini 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo (2 GB RAM and 80 GB HD) with Mac OS X 10.4.8.
    Holding:
    Option Command OF
    when restarting does nothing!
    Option: alt key.
    Command: Apple key ().
    Is this a flaw or am I missing something?
    Thanks.

    Since there is no Open Firmware, there's no reason to reset the Open Firmware defaults. I would assume that since there's no current interface to reset the EFI defaults, this operation is not necessary. I can't say that for certain. But, just like "zapping the PRAM", which used to help when troubleshooting issues with Mac OS 9, doing it in Mac OS X doesn't change or affect as many settings so it's really not necessary.

  • What optical audio cable to use with Mac Mini (late 2009) to receiver?

    I want to do the following (removing TiVo for something else is NOT an option, EVER):
    1) I want to watch TV through my HD TiVo (better than sex, better than chocolate, better than sex, chocolate, and anything else you can combine together).
    2) I want to watch DVDs plus iTunes videos plus listen to iTunes audio through my Mac Mini.
    3) I want to have digital optical audio (TOS?) 5.1 dolby for both
    On the Mac Mini it says it has digital audio out. Isn't that the same thing as digital Optical audio out?

    You need a regular optical digital cable, often called a Toslink, with a 3.5 mm miniplug adapter on the Mac mini end. The port is a combo port. When you insert the optical cable's miniplug into the port, because it is a tiny bit longer than a regular 3.5 mm miniplug, it activates the digital audio. Usually the port's output is analog by default.

  • Optical audio out not working (incl the solution for me)

    problem:
    new 2011 Mac Mini, 2.5G
    connecting to
    a) TV via HDMI
    b) to a D/A converter and amplifier for a bit better music output
    This worked perfectly for my previous MiniMac that I replace due to my need for speed.
    Now, I could see some red light at the end of the optical cable, but the D/A box did not recognize a signal?
    Furthermore, the Sound switch in Settings would only make the TV play.
    solution:
    after a lot of troubleshooting at the Genius Bar in Beijing (big thanks for that ... the shop is terribly crowded and they never manage to keep the appointments), we found the optical cable to be faulty .... it was apparently bent too much and still had some throughput but not enough to make the receiver read it.
    Nasty one!

    I just purchased this exact same receiver (used). Same issue with Apple TV. Anyone ever figure out to make it work correctly? Thanks.  

  • Tascam US-122 MK II not working with Mac Mini

    This seems to be a common issue for many people for many years, but I have not found anyone with this exact problem...:
    I am using the Tascam US-122 MK II audio interface with my Mac Mini (latest model). I have connected everything correctly, have installed the correct drive (first from the provided disk, then when that didnt work, from the web).
    The device is powered and seems to be working. I can see in System Preferences that the mini picks up the signal coming from the US-122 ( a guitar ).
    I have then attempted to use it with GarageBand. I have set the input to pick up the US-122. But there is no sound. Garageband registers no input at all, there is no sound at all, and there is also no out sound from the phones on the device. Having checked with Tascam, the problem doesnt seem to lie with the device.
    Has anyone had a similar problem? Could it be that I have to reboot in 32 bit? I don't see why this should be the case.... Thanks!

    Thanks. This doesnt seem to have helped, but has made me notice something.
    In Audio MIDI Set Up under Audio Devices, I am not able to select the US-122 MKII for sound input: that field is not highlighted. I can only select for sound output, which is of no use...! I have absolutely no idea why, even though it recognises the device, it will not allow me to select it for sound input. Any ideas? Thanks again.

  • Mic not working with MAC Mini on Line in

    Hi,
    Just got my MAC Mini 3 weeks ago - I've just tried using my audio line-in mic to do a test call with SKYPE and it doesn't work.
    I've gone into system preferences and tried to adjust the input volume but it doesn't seem to want to know...
    Any advice for this MAC newbie?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    I would say the fact you get some audio from the mic but not enough for viable use indicates that your present microphone is not outputting a high enough signal. Many elecret condeser type mics, and others with battery power sources output below line level voltages, so the input in the mini would simply not be sensitive enough to register the signal, and you would get exactly the results you describe.
    There are microphone preamplifiers you could get to boost the mics signal level, or alternatively, a number of other microphones, including almost all USB devices of this type, which would likely serve your purposes very well.

  • Usb mike not working with mac mini

    Hi,
    I bought a samson CO1U usb connection mike to use with the mac mini as there is no mike connection. The device is recognised by the computer but apparently not by i-movies or Quicktime Pro 7 as when I bring up the audio screen nothing registers in the sound level and obviously nothing records - am I doing something wrong or missing something out or is this device just not compatible? Apple help were no help!
    Hope someone can be of assistance in this matter as I need to record a voiceover on to an animation video.
    cheers, shadwell

    Hi, thanks for your reply - did that but still no joy.
    In utilities / audio midi it says output ( and input ) not supported and in system preferences/sound the input level is registering nothing.I'm going to try the mike on a friend's laptop to see if it is a problem with the mike or the mini mac - or maybe I'm just making some simple mistake in setting it up in Quicktime.Do you know if any usb recording devices actually do work with the mini mac?
    thanks, shadwell

  • Handoff not working on mac mini late 2012

    This is really annoying me and was wondering if anyone else with a mac mini late 2012 was experiencing the same problems as I am having.
    Here is the problem.
    I have a mac mini late 2012 and it does not show to my other devices, iPhone 5s, iPad air or my macbook air that I when I am writing out an email that an icon shows in the dock on my macbook air or iPhone that I can 'carry on' or 'handoff' on another device.
    However if I repeat this on my iPhone 5s it will show on ALL devices that I can resume on my mac mini or macbook air. The same is for my macbook air where I can carry on.
    Mac mini > iphone 5s = not working  (this is for all Apple apps)
    Macbook air > iPhone 5s, Mac mini, ipad air = works great!
    So. my question is why is it working on the other devices apart from my mac mini?
    I have taken steps which I searched for online. As in sign out of iCloud on my mac mini. bluetooth disable and then restart and enable it again. I have even taken the drastic action to reformat and start again! Even that won't make it work!
    So, is this a bug? I obviously meet the system requirements or I wouldn't be writing this.
    Many thanks for any help.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • Audio output not working

    The audio jack in the back of my iMac is not working. This has happened off and on before but it seems to have totally failed now. There is supposed to be a red light visible inside the jack. I believe the digital output is sharing this jack, there is no red light working now also. I am using a USB to M-Audio box to send my sound to my speakers right nw. I am wondering if anyone has has this problem and got it repaired?
    Thanks
    Gary

    Is your iMac still under warranty? Also, before you take it in for repair, have you tried using Apple-made headphones (like the white ear buds) to test your audio jack?
    Also, have you tried using another device to plug into the USB slot you are currently trying to use? To see if it works?
    I had a similar problem last year, when I purchased an iMac in Feb 2011. After a few months of usage, there was no audio coming through the headphones I plugged into the audio jack, AND I was having issues with USB devices not being recognized when I plugged it into a certain slot.
    After numerous FRUSTRATING visits to the Genius bar where the motherboard and audio cable was completely (and needlessly) replaced, it was finally deternined the actual port with the audio and USB ports was misaligned within the iMac metal shell. So after being initially told that I couldn't get a replacement, they gave me a brand new iMac as it was a physical defect that couldn't be fixed.
    Since getting the new replacement, I'm now having minor (and strange) issues with audio again. I suspect it's a common and fundamental flaw with the recent iMacs that Apple seriously needs to address.
    Good luck with this - taking in an iMac is terribly stressful. Feel free to mention the possible flaw with the misaligned port - hopefully this will save you the trouble of making numerous trips.

  • Bug: wifi does not work on mac mini late 2012 when sd card is inserted

    Who knows how to solve the problem? Does at anyone else's mac mini appear the same behaviour of the system?

  • Optical Audio Is Not Working with Onkyo Receiver TX-SR501

    Hello,
    I can't seem to make the optical audio from Apple TV work with my Onkyo Receiver TX-SR501. The Onkyo has 2 optical audio lines in in the back. When I hit the "digital input" button on the front of receiver, I can select from OPT1, OPT2, or COAX. I currently have the optical audio line going into OPT2, but if I select OPT2, I hear no sound. Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Holly

    I have the exact same receiver (Onkyo TX SR-501) and tgibbs is correct...you must (during a setup process) link each function (DVD, Video 1, Video 2, Video 3, CD, etc.) with its audio source. The Optical cable doesn't connect to a "function" in the back, it connects to an "input". The receiver gives you the freedom to use different inputs with different functions. It's your job, durng the "setup" to map each of these inputs to each function...that way the receiver knows where to go looking for the audio that you are feeding into it for each function you choose. The owners manual has a pretty clear setup process outlined in it.
    Not clear to me that you understood this, so forgive me if I am explaining what is already clear to you.
