Question regarding audio output on bluetooth...

I received a bluetooth speaker in the mail today (the Oontz). I connected it but the only options for the sound output are headset and headphones, which makes the sound really muffled. When I connect it to my boyfriend's MacBook Pro, there is an "audio device" output option, but I can't figure out how to set it up on my computer with that option! Please help
I have an older MacBook Pro that is running on Mac OS X 10.5.8.

More information: I remember having this problem with my soundbar a year or so ago but somehow fixed it... When I try to re-setup the device, the only options are use device as headset and use device as headphones.

  • Help, basic question, no audio output?

    I have a Mac Pro running latest version of Logic Pro. I'm not new to audio software (come from a Cakewalk background on the Windows platform), but I'm relatively new to Mac Pro and Logic Pro.
    I seem unable to get any audio output from my setup when using a Logic Midi Track (i.e. GM Device Piano).
    My hardware:
    Mac Pro
    M-Audio Axiom 25 Keyboard/controller (connected via USB to Mac Pro)
    MOTU UltraLite (connected via FireWire to Mac Pro)
    M-Audio ProjectMix I/O (connected via FireWire to Mac Pro)
    I can bring up the Loop Browser and play loops and place loops in the Arrange view but I can't seem to use my USB/MIDI M-Audio Keyboard to generate any Audio via the Motu.
    Also, I can see the Midi events in the Logic Transport Window.
    If I load up garageband the M-Audio & Motu Ultralite work just fine, so I'm confused as to what I'm not doing right in Logic Pro? It must be something really basic I'm missing.
    Sorry for such a basic lame question, but I'm stumped!
    Thanks, Rob.

    well of course there is no official word on when an update to logic will arrive with a significant GUI overhaul. personally I hope that such a step is taken carefully.. this software is the backbone of many people's working life, so and big changes to the interface are hopefully being considered and integrated carefully.
    I'd hope that a major overhaul to the logic UI won't just be cosmetic. there is a lot of legacy code left over from emagic days that do not make use of the latest OSX technology and so are not optimised. an example - look at how slow the screenset changes are. there is always a delay in response time to when you change a screenset, in some cases this can actually be slower than it was on older machines running OS9. as far as I can tell this is because it's all part of some custom graphics code in logic and doesn't make use of OSX quartz and probably not the graphics card effectively either. as a comparison, look at how incredibly responsive exposé is. it always seems to stay that responsive regardless of CPU load, so there has got to be a way to make the GUI features of logic perform just as snappily as the system ones.
    same goes for the painful, annoying delay in mouse click response time, which is worse since OSX than it was under os9. a rewrite of logic's UI will hopefully sort this problem out too.
    these things may seem like irrelevant nitpicks, but trust me, when you become a power user and you are cutting audio and throwing parts of your arrangement around like nobody's business, the sticky slow response of the GUI really penalises you.

  • Questions regarding PO output in SRM 4.0

    Hi All
    I have several questions regarding the settings for PO output in SRM 4.0 ( Ext. classic)
    Would really appreciate if someone provides me the rationale and business reasons behind some config settings:
    I am referring to BBP_PO_ACTION_DEF transaction in IMG
    1) What is the difference between Processing when saving document & immediate processing. SHouldn't the PO output be always processed after the PO is changed and saved?
    2) In the Determination technology what is the significance of the term ' Transportable conditions'. Why would it be different if the conditions were manual and not transportable?
    3) In the Rule type what is the signifcance of Workflow conditions? How workflow controls the output?
    4) What is the meaning of ' Action merging' in layman's terms and what do each of the choices like "Max. 1 Unprocessed Action for Each Processing Type" signify.
    5) What powers do the 'changeable in dialog' & 'executable in dialog' indicators assign to the user processing the PO. What happens if these indicators are not set.
    6) What does ' Archive mode' in processing type signify. Are the PO outputs archived and stored?
    Regards
    Kedar

    Hello,
    Have a look at note 564826. It has some information.
    As far as I know, processing time 'Immediate Processing' is not allowed. I really don't know the reason.
    "Processing Time" should be defined as "Process using Selection Report" when an output should be processed by a report, such as RSPPFPROCESS, for example.
    If you set this as "Process when Saving document", then the output will be sent immediately, otherwise you have to process it with transaction BBP_PPF.              
    I hope I could help you a little.
    Kind regards,
    Ricardo

  • GarageBand audio output via bluetooth

    Hi,
    I have a Bluetooth A2DP headset and when connected to iPad I can play songs and video. However GarageBand does still output audio to iPad speakers.

    Not really. You can play the audio through Bluetooth, but the latency is huge and it's impossible to play any instruments live. All you can do is listen to recorded sessions.

  • Question Regarding Audio in MPEG-2 Compression

    Hi,
    I have recently been on holiday and wish to compress some stock footage which is taking up ridiculous amounts of space on my Mac. Not only will it be saving me precious HDD space, but I wish to put it on DVD at a later date too and know that MPEG 2 is the standard for SD DVDs.
    My problem is with the audio when compressing for MPEG-2. I Understand that both have to be compressed separately so I'm converting the video with a dolby soundtrack, but how do I join them again?
    Alternatively, theres the option of checking a box so the audio is multiplexed however the end result always seems to be a file thats unreadable by all applications on my Mac (All software is up to date and I own the entire FCP studio)?
    It's a slightly 'Noobish' question I guess, and I'm thinking I'm in the wrong section altogether now oops and maybe I should be looking up how to use DVD Studio Pro?
    But any help/ Guidance would be great for an amateur like myself who's just starting out with trying to get his head around the Pro Suites.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi:
    My problem is with the audio when compressing for MPEG-2. I Understand that both have to be compressed separately so I'm converting the video with a dolby soundtrack, but how do I join them again?
    You don't need to join them again ! You must import both audio and video files in DVDSP and place them in the same track.
    You must choose the right DVD enoding preset depending on your footage lenght in minutes and encode your video as MPEG2 and your audio to Dolby 2 (AC3). Giving both files same name (i.e. movie1.mpg & movie1.ac3) will help you to organize your assets in DVDSP.
    Visit the DVDSP forum and use the Search feature. You'll find a lot of good info in previous posts.
    Hope that helps !

  • Question regarding the output of Get-MailboxPermission

    Has anyone seen this sort of output for the AccessRights, specifically the number?
    This can be related to several other issues we had in regards to 3rd party AD management software. 
    get-mailboxpermisson -identity 'user' | ft user,accessrights
    OUTPUT
    User                                                 Access Rights

    User                                                 Access Rights

    In these i issued the command

    Remove-MailboxPermission : Cannot remove ACE on object "userFQDN" for account "NT AUTHORITY\SELF" because it is not present.
    When i manually remove SELF, then re-add self with correct permission and run the get-mailbox command the output is now
    User                                                 Access Rights
    NT AUTHORITY\SELF                         {FullAccess, DeleteItem, ReadPermission}
    again this could be due to the third party AD mgmt software, thought this might also be from migrated account from legacy domains??
    anyone see this before??? reminds me of UAC for user.

    
    It certainly looks as if you have nonstandard permissions
    settings going on there.

  • Questions regarding analog output

    I want to build a LabVIEW file to generate analog output signal. Basically, if a variable (say, temperature) is between 250 and 500, voltage will be applied to a valve and open the valve. The attached is my first try using LabVIEW. But there is an error:
    Error -200077 occurred at Property Node DAQmx Timing (arg 1) in DAQmx Timing (Sample Clock).vi:1->pulse based valve control.vi
    Possible reason(s): Requested value is not a supported value for this property.
    Property: SampTimingType
    You Have Requested: Sample Clock
    You Can Select: On Demand
    Task Name: _unnamedTask<2>
    The DAQ device I used is USB-6009. I tried different sample modes, but nothing worked. How can I fix this problem?
    Also, for the next step, I will use AI (temperature) and AO (voltage) in the same LabVIEW file. Here are some other questions.
    1. Is it necessary to set sample rates for the AI and AO channels?
    2. Is it necessary to synchronize the sample clocks for AI and AO channels?
    Thanks,
    Bei

    Hi Qifu,
    If you are new to LabVIEW and DAQmx, I would suggest reading
    this tutorial. The shipping examples are also a wealth of knowledge.  (Help >> Find Examples >>
    Hardware Input and Output >> DAQmx >> Synchronization >>
    Multi-
    Function)
    You did not specify how fast you will be acquiring
    data.  I will assume that you will be
    acquiring and generating at a slow rate since you are measuring
    temperature.  Yes, you should set the
    sampling rate and sample clocks the same for both the AI and AO.  I would refer to the example (Multi-Function-Synch
    AI-AO) in the example finder on how to accomplish this.

  • A simple question regarding flash output from Encore

    My primary question is how exactly is the html file that is playhed by the browser created in Encore?  I have tired this and I am simply unable to located the html file as seen in the tutorials on this subject.  I see that these tutorials have templates which I don't see when I select the flash output.  Do I need these to crreate a simple flash file that is playable on a website?  Where to the templates come from?  This is not explained in the tutorials.
    Is the index.html file created automatically when Flash output is selected as the format?  Maybe I am doing something wrong but I have never found them?
    Please help as I am having to go through a two step process to create the requied index.html and embeded player from which the SWF is played.on a site.  I am only interested in creating progressively encoded web site playable files from Encore.  Please help!.
    Thanks for any assistance. 

    Encore creates the HTML file when you export to Flash - it's in the folder named on export, along with all the other files you'll need.

  • Question regarding mic plugged into audio in/optical digital audio in port

    So I have this external headset... headphone/mic set combo... I plug the headphone jack in the headphone slot and the mic jack in the audio in/optical digital audio in port slot in the back of my IMAC. I go to my system preferences select "sound" and "line in - Audio line in port". But when recording, it's still recording from the internal mic? How do I just record just from the external mic??? What am I doing wrong? I've read all the other questions regarding how to get the external mics to work, but it's still recording from the internal mic? Help?
      Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    I never expected APPLE wouldn't make a mac that didn't have a proper mic jack?
    It has a proper one, a good one, a professional one, not the toy that comes with most PCs. Apple has used line level analog audio input for years.
    From Wikipedia;Line level is a term used to denote the strength of an audio signal used to transmit analog sound information between audio components such as CD and DVD players, TVs, audio amplifiers, and mixing consoles.
    In contrast to line level, there are weaker audio signals, such as those from microphones and instrument pickups, and stronger signals, such as those used to drive headphones and loudspeakers. The strength of the various signals does not necessarily correlate with the output voltage of a device; it also depends on the source's output impedance, or the amount of current available to drive different loads.

  • Can anyone help with Bluetooth and Audio output conflict?

    Sorry for repeat but new to this.

    Hey DS.. Im having the same exact issue as you and Im sure alot of other people are as well... it seems to be touch and go. I currently own a Mac Mini Solo with an intel 1.5 ghz processor and I have a Motorolo H700 Bluetooth headset. I can get mine to work for a short while watching movies or what not or use it in iChat but then after so many minutes my computer has a spastic fit with the thing and i get the exact error message you described. However when I attempt to go back into my Audio Control Panel to switch audio from the BT headset back to the line out.. the control panel seems to freeze up as well causing me to reboot my entire system just enough to switch the audio back to the line out. I think that this is an issue on apples end that they need to update their blue tooth software or something as you really cannot update software to a BT headset only the device it communicates with. So I think in the meantime we are all screwed until apples gets off their butts and does something about this.

  • Selecting audio output from iPhone - bluetooth or dock?

    Hi
    I have a problem selecting audio output on my iPhone 3GS with my incar system
    Set up:
    Dension ipod dock connected direct to CD changer port on Radio
    Bury Bluetooth hands free device.(CC9060)
    My preferred option is to have the Dension play my audio.
    However when I turn on the iPod function on the iPhone, the audio defaults to the Bury hands free system and tried to stream the audio via bluetooth which the phone cannot do.
    On the bottom right of the screen on the iPhone, I see a speaker icon - I click on this and I get the option to select the iPod Dock or the CC 9060 (Which is the Bury Hands free)
    I can select the iPod dock and teh audio plays fine, however, how to I force the iPhone to always use the iPod dock and not the Bury hands free.
    From what I can tell, its not the Bury which is forcing teh choice - its the iPhone, but I cannot see anywhere where there is an option to choice the iPod dock as the default audio device.
    Any one have any ideas?
    Thanks
    Glenn

    Found a quite probable fix.
    I've took my dock station under big lens and noticed a stuck contact -- they are supposed to be somewhat movable. So I pick a real small screwdriver and unstuck the contact.
    Issue is apparently gone.

  • Simultaneous audio output from Ipad and bluetooth ?

    Is it possible to have simultaneous audio output from IPAD and a bluetooth speaker? At present I can only get audio from the Bluetooth Speaker and nothing from the IPAD's audio out! My purpose is that my Mom will hold the IPAD to listen to her Audiobooks but my Dad who sits across the room and is hard of hearing needs a speaker close to him, so I need simultaneous audio from both devices.

The speaker output on the iPad is pretty limited and your mother will probably have a hard time hearing it. Get a BT speaker for both and the above device and they both can listen from whatever location they want (within 40 feet) and get better sound.

    Its the new bluetooth stacks driver that was included with the new OS, if your stereo is a older model it does not have the supported drivers to communicate to the device, this is common with upgrades, older hadware has to be updated in order to add the support needed for the newer hardware, its like placing a 50 inch tv on a vga video card that only supports 800x600 resolutions, it may work but wont function correctly....  
    Your stereo should be able to use the handsfree connection from the device but all addition options wont function because of hardware limits.
