Simultaneous sound: how to get sound from internal speakers and usb audio adapter

I have an iMac in my living room. It is hardwired to my home theater system in my family room. Currently, I can listen to audio in one location or the other... but not both. I bought a StarTech.com ICUSB Audio Adapter hoping that it would be a fix... not so much. Downloaded SoundSource... not so much
How can I get audio to play via my internal speakers and through my home theater system? Hosting a party this Saturday and would like multiple rooms filled with sound.

First pluging is headphones and then unplugging it. If yu can't get it fully inseted tham may indicate that end of a plug is broken off inside the jack.
Then if not above problem, try the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
If you still have the problem then an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

MacBook Pro won't automatically switch between internal speakers and display audio

I have a MacBook Pro that connects to a LED Cinema display. It used to automatically switch between internal speakers and display audio when plugged in to the display but won't anymore. I have to manually change it in System Preferences --> Sound. Does anyone know how to make it do that again?
thanks,
Ben

I just want to add, I have the same problem, and just want to help raise awareness of it.
1st, the problem only started recently (have been using the Thunderbolt display since it was released), I did not have this problem, and noticed it beginning only in the last month. (since January)
2nd, My particular setup, includes a hard drive attached to the firewire port on the back of the Thunderbolt Display (so, I am wondering if anyone else experienced this problem with a firewire drive being connected).
     My full setup:
          Macbook Air (2011)
         Thunderbolt display
          Western Digital drive (attached to firewire of display)
3rd, If I go into settings, what I will see is the "Display Audio" is selected (but no sound coming out),
If I then select "Internal Speakers," a buffered "history" of all the sounds I did not hear is then played (pretty funny actually) - for example, if I sent mail, adjusted the volume, and started playing a song.... it immediately plays all those sounds when selecting "Internal Speakers"
4th, If i then select "Display Audio" - it does nothing
5th, what I have to do, to resolve this is: eject all my hard drives, disconnect the thunderbolt cable, then reconnect the thunderbolt cable, and everything works as normal.

How to get users from Organizational Unit and with worker's subgroup

Hi
I am looking for a f. module to get the list of users from specific Organizational Unit and with specific worker's subgroup.
I found f. module SWI_GET_USERS_OF_ORG_UNIT but it seems not working and only returns the users, how can I narrow the selection to get only from specific worker's subgroup?
Thank you

Hi,
Try with FM RH_STRUC_GET with following parameters:
ACT_OTYPE = O
ACT_OBJID = worker's subgroup
ACT_WEGID = SBESX
Most important is to specify OBJID as the workers's subgroup, values for the others parameters may vary.
Cheers.

How to get signal from analog input and send it to analog output (real-time)

Hi everyone,
I am doing simple task in Visual C++ and I am using PCI-6221(37 pin).
Basically, I want to send same signal from 'analog input' to 'analog output'
at the same time (almost), to make it real-time application.
Can someone please provide me sample program.
I would appreciate if you could provide me with the good tutorial which explains
step by step everything about programing NI-DAQmx for C/C++.
Best Regards,
Khassan
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This is my code in C++, you can optimize it if it looks too messy. This code reads signal from analog input and outputs it through analog output.
To make this code work additional include directories and library directories must be added from NI.
I hope it helps someone.

I had a disc of pictures in my imac and tried to update the software to 10.9, after realizing the disc was in there i ejected it and now its stuck on the os x page. any info of how to get away from that screen and onto my normal pages?

i tried to update my software to 10.9 and forgot i had a disc of pictues in the computer. i stopped the istall as it was trying to go onto the disc of pictures. now its stuck on the os x page and i cant get it to my home screen. can anyone help?

I'm not really sure what you mean by "the os x page". It sounds like the installation did not complete.
I would try this:
hold down the power button until the computer shuts down
take out the disk with the pictures!
restart and see if it will boot up
if it boots up normally, I'd probably try to repair your HD: Boot into your recovery partition (hold down ⌘R at restart until you see the Apple symbol), go to Disk Utility, and repair your hard drive. While you're there, repair permissions too. OSX Tips Using the Recovery HD
Then I'd try to reboot and run the installer again. I think it's a good idea to do the installation in safe mode : Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? .
if it won't boot up normally, I'd try booting from the recovery partition and repairing your HD.
if it won't boot into the recovery partition, your options are:
Try to repair your hard drive with internet recovery: OS X: About OS X Recovery
If you have access to another (working) Mac and a USB thumb drive, download Recovery Disk Assistant, which you can use to repair your hard drive or reinstall OSX: OS X: About Recovery Disk Assistant
Try to boot into single user mode and repair your hard drive: Repair Your Hard Disk in Single User Mode | Everything Macintosh

How to get data from pdf file and send contents of the pdf file to R/3

Hi, experts,
Action:
1. Make a pdf forms (interactive form) with inputfield named A_inputfield in the webdynpro application and run the webdynpro application.
2. In the IE, click the save button in the pdf interactive form and save the pdf to local disk,ex: C disk. Close the IE browser.
3. Open the pdf interactive form from the local C disk and type "aaa" to the A_inputfield.
4. I want to save the "aaa" to the R/3 system using webdynpro or using other tools . How can I do it?
First way:
If I use webdynpro application to save the content of the pdf, I don't find a way mapping or binding the content to a context of a view. So I don't think this way is unadvisable.
Second way:
Adding a button "submit" in the pdf forms when create the pdf form. Runing the webdynpro application, save the pdf to local disk,ex: C disk. Opening the pdf interactive form from the local c disk and typing "aaa" to the A_inputfield, click the "submit" button to save the content. Of course, I need to finish the code for clicking "submit" button. But I don't know how to write these codes and where to write these codes. Do you give me some advise ?
Best regards,
tao

How to get value from option box and submit accordingly

Sorry for posting my question. I have been trying to edit message and repost it and not successful. Hence I am reposting my question. Please let me know.
I am right now exploring JSF for presentation layer. I am designing a form with <h:outputLabel..> and <h:inputText...> for the user to input his value. I also have a radio button as below. <h:outputLabel..>
<h:inputText...>
<h:selectOneRadio id="libraryList" >
                            <f:selectItems value="#{libraryList}"/>
                        </h:selectOneRadio>And I have included the following piece of code in faces-config.xml as below.
<managed-bean>
        <managed-bean-name>libraryList</managed-bean-name>
        <managed-bean-class>java.util.HashMap</managed-bean-class>
        <managed-bean-scope>application</managed-bean-scope>
        <map-entries>
            <map-entry>
                <key>Pass</key>
                <value>Pass</value>
            </map-entry>
            <map-entry>
                <key>Fail</key>
                <value>Fail</value>
            </map-entry>
        </map-entries>
    </managed-bean>Hence I get two option box as Pass and Fail.
I am also bit aware of navigation rules of JSF. Now I want the user to take to the step 2 if he chooses the option Pass and if the user chooses Fail, then I want to reset the values of the above form and display the same form.
I have not done any Java part of the application yet as I am a newbee and hence started doing JSP pages and config-faces.xml part. Please let me know how to proceed further.

Create a bean, bind the value to the bean, let the action method return that value and add navigation-case entries for those outcomes.

My mac desktop will not provide sound from internal speakers. when I go to audio devices window it only shows airplay. How can I get internal speakers back.

My mac desktop will not provide sound from internal speakers. When I go to audio devices window it only shows airplay. How can I get internal speakers back.

There are many possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Some may not apply to your model. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article. Don't skip any of the steps. It's the starting point for further efforts to solve the problem.
2. Run Software Update and make sure you have a fully up-to-date installation of OS X.
3. If you've installed an application called "Memory Clean" or any other third-party software that is supposed to "clean" or "purge" memory automatically, remove it according to the developer's instructions and restart. You should do that even if the software is not causing the problem, because it's useless.
4. Other third-party software that has been reported to interfere with sound output includes "Boom" and "Samsung Kies." If applicable, uninstall according to the developer's instructions (not by dragging something to the Trash.)
5. If an AirPlay device is selected for sound output from iTunes (or from other applications via third-party software such as "Airfoil"), deselect it.
6. Launch the application "Audio MIDI Setup" by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search and selecting it in the results (it should be at the top.) Select Built-in Output from the list on the left. If the Mute boxes are checked, uncheck them.
7. If a red light is visible in the audio-out port when sound should be playing, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
8. Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard and mouse, if applicable. If more than one display is connected, disconnect all extra ones. Restart and test.
9. If you have a MacBook Air, turn off Bluetooth and restart.
10. Start up in safe mode. Don't log in; just restart as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
11. Reset the NVRAM.
12. Reset the SMC.
13. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Preferences/Audio
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Recreate your settings in the Sound preference pane.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
14. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data.
15. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

HELP! How do I get rid of the volume noise that plays when I switch from internal speakers to external speakers?

How do I get rid of the volume noise that plays when I switch from internal speakers to external speakers? I'm trying to watch something on my TV through an HDMi cable (& apple adapter) and when I go to switch the sound control in preferences from internal speakers to SONY TV, the annoying "popping" noise occurs on my TV's speakers.

Go to Edit > Preferences > General > Import Settings and check the box for error correction, and then try one of the problem CDs again.

No sound from internal speakers on HP G5000 G5056EA

Hi, my son upgraded my old laptop to Windows 10 over the weekend. It is working great apart from the sound no longer works on the internal speakers even thought the driver is correct and says it is working correctly. Anyone got any ideas how to resolve?

Hi there , Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome! This is a great site to get answers and ask questions.

Envy laptop confused about aux jack being plugged/unplugged; no sound from internal speakers

So I was typing all normal like, didn't do anything stupid or weird, but suddenly the music I was playing through my laptop's internal speakers just stopped.
And despite nothing being plugged in the auxiliary jack, the laptop thinks something IS plugged in and doesn't play sound through the internal speakers. So no sound at all.
And on the flip side, when I plug headphones in the aux jack, the laptop says that "You have just unplugged a device from the audio jack" but then plays normally through the headphones. Internal speakers still silent.
It's like the laptop suddenly got confused in whatever component registers the auxiliary connection, but I don't understand why it still plays through the headphones when it thinks there is nothing plugged in. And also why the internal speakers don't work AT ALL.
It has Beats Audio, if that helps at all. I tried restarting, messing around with the sound settings but I honestly have no idea what I'm doing and anyways nothing has changed from that.
Anyways, yeah, help?
This is a pretty new laptop, only about a month old.

Hi @nematoda
Welcome to the HP Forums!
It is a fantastic place to find answers and tips.
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
I grasp that you have lost sound on the internal speakers and when you connect headphones you get the message that you disconnected the device but then plays sound through the headphones.
Here is a link to No Sound from the Speakers (Windows 8) that may help to overcome this issue.
If this has not been resolved I recommend contacting HP support for assistance as the notebook is only a month old.

I have lost sound on my iPad in apps unless I use headphones ,does anyone know how to get sound back without them .I have used the mute volume on the bar at bottom of screen and the slider volume control there only shows when headphones are plugged in !

I have lost sound on my iPad in apps unless I use headphones ,does anyone know how to get sound back without them .I have used the mute volume on the bar at bottom of screen and the slider volume control there only shows when headphones are plugged in !
I also tried resetting settings all to no avail ...I looked up some advice and watched utube video advice on how to fix without success..
The volume control button on side does not work ,I got the iPad last August and wonder if it is a fault that means I must return it for replacement from where it was purchased ?

The Retrospect you used way back when is no longer around. The company was sold and that company produced a new version of Retrospect - Retrospect 8.x
So, as you've been told, you would have to be running a Tiger system with an old version of Retrospect software (5.x or 6.x - you would need to know) assuming you can find the software.
As best I can remember you cannot extract files from a Retrospect backup except using the software since Retrospect did not normally make a file by file backup rather it created an archive of the files in the backup. I'm assuming that the EMC/Retrospect people have told you that old Retrospect backups are not accessible by Retrospect 8.x?

Sound output: keeps changing from internal speakers to Apple TV

My iMac keeps changing the soudn output from internal speakers to Apple TV. Why. This makes it a pain. Eveytime I use the iMAc, I have to go into preferences>sound>output and switch to internal speakers. Any ideas how to stop this form happeneing?
Thanks!

If you use LogMeIn, it is their sound driver. I'm having identical problem and it started after using LogMeIn.

Sound from internal speakers keeps coming and going.

My internal speakers aren't working consistently. One second I hear sound and then the next I hear nothing. I checked "System Preferences > Sound > Output" and can see that the selected device keeps randomly switching from Internal Speakers to Digital Out to Headphones. Why is this happening, and how do I fix it?
Thx

1. Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14222
    Do this twice
2. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Choose the appropriate method.

Macbook Pro no sound from internal speakers or headphones

I have a macbook pro (mavericks). There is no audio coming from the internal speakers and when headphones are plugged in there is still no sound. There is no red light coming from the headphone port either. Any advice?

Try plugging the headphones in and out 10-12times, while toggling the volume and mute buttons.
Have you tried cutting the end off a cotton swab and GENTLTLY swabbing the the headphone swabbing the port 9;00 clock to 3:00 clock, there is a micorswitch that some times gets "hung up" and this can free up the witch.
Also you can try going to to applications/utilities/ Audio MIDI Set up. app and see if you can select built in there.
To get more aggressive you can try these options:
Close all windows and quit all applications.
Click "Go" menu in the Finder menubar.
Select Computer, then Macintosh HD > Library > Preferences
Open "Audio" folder.
Right click these two files and select "Move to Trash".
com.apple.audio.DevicesSettings.plist
com.apple.audio.SystemSettings.plist
Close the window. Restart the computer
Go to Applications/Utilities/Audio MIDI Setup/Built-In Output/Output and in Format change from the default 2ch-24bit integer to any other format (say, 2ch-32bit float). This should activate the headphone jack. I moved the format back to the original 2ch-24 integer setting and the headphones continued working. So it seems that (for some reason) the original default setting does not recognize a headphone being inserted, but after performing this "resetting" it seems to come to its senses and behave properly from then on
if these do help your issues, please post back, there may be other options.
It is best to start a new post, rather adding on to an already existsting, as you will get more people looking at it, and thus offering more advice/sugestions.
