Possible to use my PC's speakers on my MacBook directly?

Is it possible to send audio signal from my Mac, into my PC, and out of my PC's speakers? I use 5.1 on my PC and my Mac only has ins for stereo and it's a hustle to reconnect my speakers to my Mac.
(Inb4: No I do not want any 5.1 to MacBook cables/convertors).

I'm not able to send audio from my Mac to my stationary PC with TP, but thx though

    Is it possible to use a USB aircard on the 11" MacBook Air?

    No, the superdrive works only with Mac that don't have an optical superdrive built in in the first place.
    However, if you have a newer Mac that could support the SuperDrive or another computer (Mac or PC) which has an optical drive, you could use this: DVD or CD sharing: Using Remote Disc - Apple Support

  • Is it possible to use the built-in speakers when headphone connected?

    I have a mini amp and speakers connected via the headphone jack on my late 2009 21.5" iMac.
    First, is this the proper way to make this connection?
    If I want to switch to use the built-in speakers, I can do so by unplugging the external amp. However, it seems that there should be a way to do this via software. But, I can't find it. Is it possible? If so, how?
    I don't always want to make use of the external amp, I want to use it for music and videos, but not otherwise. And, I don't want to have to unplug it when it's not in use.
    Thanks.

    System prefs> sound> output.
    select your internal speakers in there.
    No need to unplug your mini amp.
    This actually works on your Mac? I doubt it. This does not work on either the Early '06 iMac, nor the Early '09 Mac mini in my house. When anything analog is plugged into the audio-out port, the name of the device in Sys Prefs/Sound/Output simply changes from Internal Speakers to Headphones, there is no option for one or the other.
    This has been asked over and over here, and I know of no way to do what the OP has asked.

  • Is it possible to use my snow leopard software for my macbook pro on an iMac or more iMacs?

    Here is the reason why i'm asking this question that sounds silly to me in a way...... i got the 2011 15.4inches macbook pro 2 weeks ago ..... it came with the last snow leopard os x but since the lion was out and i was eligible for an upgrade i got it striaght away for free in the apple store and did not use the snow leopard.... now here is the situation.... i was talking to a friend last night and he told me to give him the CD for the OS x snow leopard that he wanted to upgrade his imac to that....but i told him that i did not think that would work because in most cases i know even in windows os these kind of CDs are protected and are made for that pc it is installed on but he kept on insisting it would work and telling me how experienced he is in using a mac for 7 years and what ever cd protection happened to only pc and not mac(the funny thing is that he said he has experience but has never tried it before) so to cut the long story short i told him that i would get back to him....... so here i am again today asking a question that might even prove my thoughts right.....
    valuable community.....PLEASE IS IT POSSIBLE TO USE MY MACBOOK PRO OPERATING SYSTEM CD ON A FRIENDS IMAC?  because i dont believe it is possible because if it was, no one will ever upgrade to any os in a mac... they will just look for oppotunities to get it from a friend or family who has one.... hope im not the only one thinking that this question is a silly one lol....... please i really need your answers to show this experienced mac user of 7 years since he told me that i can install my os on more macs.... how possible it that...i dont know...
    Thanks in Advance for your replies

    Hi Chris,
    I'm guessing it's the "old" gray disc, which is usually hardware specific to your exact model. I'd keep it if I were you, you may want to install it.

  • Is it possible to use a USB hub on a new MacBook Pro with Maverickss?

    I have used a powered Q-Store USB2 hub on first my old trust MacBook with the 13 inch screen running System X.6.8 for years; then I switched it over to my new 13 In. MacBook Pro (non retina) with Mavericks X.9.2 and it still works great. It is powered and seems to run a full load including USB hard drives, camera when wanted, cooling pad with fan, printer/scanner/copier combo, charging a MP3 player or Galaxy S4, apple mouse and keyboard, all with no trouble and no drop outs. I let an old Firewire 400 or 800 hard disk stay with my old Macintosh for now as it mirrors it, but sometimes hook it up with no problem except it gets hot.
    I have a new USB3  WD Passport 3 hard drive and a 32 gb USB 3 memory stick. I wanted to put these on a USB3 hub and use one of the ports for the faster items. I can run either my WD My Passport 3 Gb drive that I use to mirror my internal drive as long as it is alone. I can also plug a 32 gb A Data memory stick in fine alone except things get a bit snug, and there's no more room on the USB 2 hub for the memory stick. If I do not use a hub for the one port I have to either use the Hard Drive or the memory stick, not both. I was using the memory stick to port files back and forth between my old and new computers at least for a while. The USB 3 peripherals work reliably when plugged in alone, but the moment a hub gets in the picture even if only one item is plugged into it, things drop in and out. It does not matter if it is the powered USB 3 hub or the non-powered Anker USB 3 4 port hub. The USB 2 items simply work but the USB 3 ones only work alone. I have looked at the power specifications. It seems like one hard drive uses all of the power the hub can put out.
    It looks like the USB 3 is rather limited on Macintosh computers is all I can conclude. There may be extra speed, but what good is it if you can only run one peripheral at a time? It seems like even a hub stresses it unless it is a hub and a memory stick or two. I even changed to system settings to keep my hard drives from going to sleep, but still it drops out randomly if hooked to a hub and runs perfectly when plugged in directly. I had hoped to use it for an emergency start up disk if needed, though I must say the rather incredible StoreEdge Micro SDX card works great for that purpose and seems to belong.
    That old USB 2 hub, even with a smaller one plugged in with 2 portable hard drives still works flawlessly on the other port and never drops out.
    I have not tested the Firewire 800 port long enough to decide, except it gets hot if it reads very long.. The old Firewire 800 / USB 2 hard disk has more than one port on it unlike so many today. I had to use a Firewire 800 to 400 cable for my old computer. Anyway it works in either computer and stays mounted even when asleep.
    Is it possible to use a USB 3 hub with more than one peripheral on a 2012-2013 13 inch MacBook Pro computer with Mavericks? If so which one works? It cannot be good for hard disks to randomly disconnect and reconnect without being dragged to the trash.

    no you can't - you have to upgrade it to 16GB yourself.
    you can get your RAM from newegg.com, macsales.com.
    the RAM you need is 16GB (8GBX2) DDR3 1600MHz DDR3.
    upgrading the RAM yourself will not void your warranty.
    you need a #00 Phillips Screwdriver - 10 screws at the bottom - 7 long ones and 3 short ones - just remember where they go when you put the screws back in.

  • This possible? ==   use iTunes to sync your contacts to Macbook contacts?

    Hi guys,
    As I am unable to sync my contacts from Mobileme to my contacts in my macbook (my earlier post), a possible solution I was thinking of is if I am able to use iTunes and sync the contacts from my iphone into my contacts on my Macbook.
    Is this possible and if so, can you tell me the steps please.... a million thanks

    No. The iPhone stores no data on a sim card, thus there is no way to do what you want using iTunes.

  • Is it possible to use Intel PROset Wireless/WiFi card on MacBook late 2007 in replacement of Airport?

    Will Intel PROset/Wireless WiFi card work on MacBook Late-2007? I don't have an Airport card with me as this MacBook was only given to me from a friend. Also will Mac OS X 10.6 install even though the WiFi card and Bluetooth card is not in the MacBook?
    MacBook Late-2007, Mac OS X 10.6, 1GB RAM, 8x SuperDrive, 235GB 5400rpm HDD, Intel Core 2 Duo T8300, Intel GMA Graphics

    I would seriously doubt that you will be able to use this card as a replacement for the AirPort Extreme card in your MacBook.
    A better option would be to use a wireless USB Wi-Fi adapter instead. You can find these at a number of vendors on the Internet. One would be Other World Computing (OWC).
    As far as installing OS X 10.6, you should be able to install it from the OS X installation disk regardless if the AirPort card is missing.

  • Is it possible to use two speakers with one Apple Tv ?

    Hello everyone,
    I bought an Apple Tv and I have one apple express with a Bose speaker and a Bose Link Air speaker.
    I would like to see a movie using the two speakers but every time that I try to select two speakers in the airplay Apple Tv menu, it automatically deselect the other speaker.
    Is it possible to use two speakers in the same time ? ( I know it's possible with Itunes)
    Thank,
    Ps: I have the last Apple TV

    No, that is not possible with Apple TV. You can set one 'output' via Apple TV, and 'stream' to multiple speakers from iTunes or via the remote app.

  • Is it possible to use Airport Express as a repeater and as an airplay device at the same time?

    Hi,
    I am using airplay with airport express stations in combination with conventional speakers for my home entertainment. Works great. Only thing is that I have a massive block of concrete in my flat. Is it possible to use one of my express stations as a repeater and at the same time as a streaming device for airplay? Thanks!

    Sure it works only with apple routers? Cause than I could stop trying.
    Yes, it's proprietary like everything else Apple. You could look at this:
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B006BBYXPA/?tag=hydra0b-21&hvadid=9550946469&ref=asc_ df_B006BBYXPA
    I have had great success installing these for BT Home Hubs and VM Superhubs.
    @JoeMY - If it is "joined" to the FritzBox then it won't work, it only works with Apple routers connected via Ethernet or as the main router.

    Thanks for your reply. I am using an Airporty Express to connect with my iMac. There is a cable going from the Airport Express into the Aux jacks on my Bose stereo. I connect wirelessly from my computer to the Express. At the bottom of the Airtunes window in a small button that allows me to choose between iTunes, Computer and Multiple Speakers. If I choose ITunes, the Bose is used. If I choose Computer, I get no music from either the computer speakers or the Bose. If I select Multiple Speakers, a small window opens that has two checkboxes in it. Computer is always checked. If I check the box for Itunes, I get music from the Bose only. I have not been able to get music from the computer since I hooked up the Airport Express. Hope this explanation helps.

  • Is it possible to use Safari to connect to a WebUI via bluetooth?

    I have a device that uses a WebUI for configuration.  The device is also bluetooth capable.  I can get my iPad 2 to pair with it.  Is it then possible to use Safari to access that WebUI through the bluetooth connection, and if so, how?
    Thanks.

    Bluetooth on the iPad is intentionally restricted to peripherals such as speakers, headphones, keyboards, car audio, etc.  Not sure if you can do what you want, but past experience suggests it is highly unlikely.

  • Can I use my Apple Pro Speakers from my G4 on my Mac Pro?

    Hi. I would like to use my Apple Pro Speakers (with iSub) from my old G4 on my new Mac Pro, but the jack is too large for the plug. I spoke to someone at Apple who said that she thought there was an adapter available in the Apple Store, but I have not been able to find it. Does anyone know if it's possible to connect these old speakers to my new machine, and where I might be able to locate this adapter? I'm really trying to avoid having to shell out money for new speakers when I was quite happy with the ones I have. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
    Mac Pro. 2 x 2.66 GHZ   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    What size is the plug, on the speakers? Is it smaller than the 3.5mm jack on the Mac Pro? If so, you could try getting a 2.5-3.5mm adapter from an electronics supplier. Should be really cheap. Alternatively, cut the plug off, and solder on a new 3.5mm plug.
    Good luck!

  • How do I set upmy Imac to allow using both my computer speakers and a Bose SoundLink system as outputs at the same time.  I can use one or the other, but not both.

    how do I set up my Imac to allow using both my computer speakers and a Bose SoundLink system as outputs at the same time.  I can use one or the other, but not both.  From systems Preferences I must select one or the other.  I want both to work all the time.

    Hi,
    I would recommend you to use 0FI_AP_4 rather using both, particularly for many reasons -
    1. DS: 0FI_AP_4  replaces DataSource 0FI_AP_3 and still uses the same extraction structure. For more details refer to the OSS note 410797.
    2. You can run the 0FI_AP_4 independent of any other FI datasources like 0FI_AR_4 and 0FI_GL_4 or even 0FI_GL_14. For more details refer to the OSS note: 551044.
    3. Map the 0FI_AP_4 to DSO: 0FIAP_O03 (or create a Z one as per your requirement).
    4. Load the same to a InfoCube (0FIAP_C03).
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.
