Two 24" LED Cinema display and getting audio from both

I have two 24" LED Cinema displays connected to a MP. Is there a way to get the audio to play through the speakers on both displays at the same time? I can easily switch the USB audio to either display, but I cannot figure out how to play audio through both at the same time. Thank you for the help,

You can hijack the audio from any application, or the system audio, with Audio Hijack Pro

You can then use its Auxiliary Device Output effect to send the audio to multiple devices.

Horizontal shifting bars on MBP 15 after disconnecting 24" LED cinema display and waking up from clamshell mode.

I use my MBP 15 (late 2011) with 24" Apple LED Cinema display in a clamshell mode. After disconnecting external display, and opening display, it shows horizontal shifted bars, so it becomes completely unusable. Have to hard reset laptop. Any hints on how to resolve this? Thanks.

Ok, more information for anyone that might care. The wake-up seems to be the familiar dark wake in order to go into hibernate mode. Except now, it's a death wake. Looking at the logs, I see that it happens exactly 70 minutes after sleeping, even though hibernatemode = 0 (which shouldn't hibernate at all!)
So my power settings look like this:
Currently in use:
standbydelay         4200
standby              1
halfdim              1
hibernatefile        /var/vm/sleepimage
darkwakes            0
gpuswitch            2
disksleep            10
sleep                10
autopoweroffdelay    14400
hibernatemode        0
autopoweroff         1
ttyskeepawake        1
displaysleep         2
acwake               0
lidwake              1
standbymode is 70 minutes, what a coincidence. I'm going to try setting it to 0 and see what that does.

Does anyone have two 24" LED Cinema Displays on their Mac Pro?

I'm wondering if there are any other Mac Pro users out there with two 24" LED Cinema Displays? If so, are you able to adjust the brightness of both displays? For me, no matter which brightness slider I adjust in System Preferences, only the brightness of one of the displays is adjusted.

I am using logitech G19 mouse and Naga Razer Epic, my current suspect that is their official driver which make my OS X 64bit kernl go nut. Does Logitech Control Center work for later version of their products such as G19?
If I plggued in the G19 without installing their official gamepanel software, The heyboard still work, volume control slider works like a charm. I just get no advantages from the LCD screen (kind of pointless).
If I install the razer mac driver, I keep seeing error log in console for the kzcorengineand razercorenginer process.
Idid clean install of Mac OS X and have not experienced freeze except once when I was plugging in my 500gb transcend external drive. This Ext. Drive require two usb slot for power and transfer data.
I am not sure if the freeze was coincidental or related to the transcend external drive I used. I did a directory permission repair and a repair to the mac drive, how things seems to stabilised.
However I want to take my test further to install office 2011 to see if it cause those random unpredictable freeze again.
Sigh, I paid $200 for such a good keyboard, but they have bad apple support. I dont like the apply ketyboard and magic mouse. It's immpossible to touch type on and even harder to play any game at all.
Wayne, when you use your logitech product, do you install the product specific driver for each product plus LCC? or you just install LCC.
Thank you

Question about the new 27" LED Cinema Display and text size

Hi, I own the 24" Apple LED Cinema Display and text on the monitor is just large enough for me. Won't text on the new 27" Display be much smaller with its higher resolution?

MANY thanks for the tip.
Now then - all indications are that my Mini will NOT pass audio via the MDP Cable given the age as well as the lack of an HDMI port (I know there isn't one this rig). Unless I am missing something I don't believe there is any adapter out there that will allow the audio to now pass through the MDP Cable if the rig itself was never configured to do so.
Following links in your posting, someone recommended this:
http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10428&cs_id=1042802 &p_id=6331&seq=1&format=2#description
However it seems to be set up to deliver A/V to an HDMI display, and unless I am mistaken, the 27" LED ACD does not have an HDMI in. Although my MacMini does have a S/PDIF Optical Digital Audio Output I don't believe the 27" LED ACD has any kind of separate audio input (either TOS Link or even 1/8 smini stereo).
So I reckon I am SOL with regard to getting the audio onto the new monitor from the Mini and I would need to keep my present speakers set up using the 18/" mini stereo out - but the video should still work......yes?

Controlling brightness on two 24" LED Cinema Displays

I have an 8-core Mac Pro from this summer with two NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 cards and two 24" LED Cinema Displays. I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.1, and when I try to adjust the brightness, the slider on both panels controls only one monitor. I therefore can't adjust the brightness of one of my displays. Has anyone found this?

LED Cinema Display issues with audio and App Switching

The audio on my Cinema Display fails after about 20 minutes, unable to diagnose other than Mavericks.
When swithing between apps (seems like Safari more than anything else) I experience a 5 second freeze every 4th or 5th switch using external Apple Keyboard.
Alt-Tab or mouse click in dock makes the same the happen with Apple Keyboard
I do have an external Logitech Mouse but have treid all the other things in the other thread to fix that and it still happens with the mouse disconnected at start.
I don't have another external mouse to test.
Defeating the point of my external display, search through here isn't yielding much info...

I removed an older USB extensions cable and it reduced the frequency of it happening but it still happens.

Problem w/ two 27" LED Cinema Displays on ATI 5770 MacPro

Attempting to connect a second display to a mid 2010 Mac Pro. There are two mini-ports + a DVI on the 5770 card. Currently I have a single 27" LED connected using one of the mini ports. The computer isn't recognizing the second monitor in the other mini port. I used to have an older 24" LCD Cinema display running successfully, using the DVI port on card with a powered adapter. That configuration isn't doable with a newer 27" given the output from it (not the older style video cabling, but rather the mini display port. Would appreciate any suggestions on how to get the two 27" monitors running together.

Hey turbostar, finally a chance to get back to you, sorry about the delay.
I had already tried both ports with no success on the second monitor, but when I moved the primary monitor to the second port and it worked... it it got me to thinking maybe the power outlet was bad if not the monitor itself. Indeed that was the issue. The second monitor was plugged into a power strip in which one of the six outlets on it was not working. Replaced the surge power strip with a new one and all is good.
Thank you for your time and help.

MacBook Pro, 27 inch LED Cinema Display and OSX 10.7

I do have a MacBook Pro and 27 inch Cinema Display. To improve the wireless connection I have to open the macbook. Doing so whilst running OSX 10.7 my Cinema Display changes autimaticaly to the settings of the MacBook display.
With OSX 10.6 this was OK.
Is this a bug or does anybody know how to overcome the change in display whilst opening the MacBook ?

Having the exact same issue, same set of circumstances.

How can I run a 27" Apple Cinema Display and another monitor from my MacBook Pro?

Hi everyone,
I recently purchased a brand new 15" MacBook Pro to replace my old one. I was told when ordering it that I would be able to hook up two external monitors to it using the Matrox DualHead2Go hardware. So, I also bought a 27" Cinema Display (non-Thunderbolt since it wouldn't work with the DH2Go). However, when I contacted Matrox they said their products don't support screens as large as the 27" ACD.
Bummer!
So, my question is: does anyone know how I can hookup a 27" Apple Cinema Display at 2560x1440 and a Acer 22" monitor at 1685x1050 (or, anything less really) to my new MacBook Pro?
I've looked around and haven't been able to find a good answer.
Thanks for your help!

Will something like this work? A USB to VGA adapter? Can I use this at the same time that I have a Cinema Display plugged into the Mini-DVI port and will they both work at the same time? Anyone know?

Connecting DVI Cinema Display and VGA Projector from Minidisplay Port

Hi Everyone!
I'm trying to get my mid 2011 Mac Mini to send a signal from my MiniDisplay Port to a vga splitter which works fine. My biggest thing is that when I connect my inFocus IN112 VGA Projector the screen shows up from my mac but to connect my Cinema Display it takes VGA so I had to go from the VGA Splitter on one side and use a vga to dvi adapter and my cinema display shows blank? Help Me Please!!
Thanks,
Andrew

I already have a converter on the end of the VGA Splitter to go to the Cinema. The reason I don't use the hdmi to dvi is because with the minidisplay port using vga to the projector and the hdmi going to dvi to the Cinema it makes the projector screen very rough and pixely

Two 24" LED Cinema Displays from 2009 Mac Mini?

I have been using two 24 inch Samsung's with a Mac mini for about 6 months and it's been great until one of the monitors failed me last week. After some research I purchased a new 24" LED ACD and it's a beautiful monitor that blows away my other 24" Samsung. I'm thinking about getting another 24" LED ACD and my question is: Has anyone connected 2 24" LED ACD's to a Mac mini using: http://www.atlona.com/Atlona-DVI-to-Mini-DisplayPort-Converter-p-17859.html
My plan is to use the mini display port to connect one ACD and use the Atlona Converter to connect the other ACD through the mini DVI port on the Mac Mini. I have the Atlona converter ordered and it will be here early next week and I'll report back on the results unless someone else has already done this and knows it works.

Just one further question, though - doesn't that mean I lose out on other uses for the Mini's only Thunderbolt port?
No, because Thunderbolt can be daisy chained. Just make sure that whatever Thunderbold Drive Enclosure you get, has dual Thunderbolt ports so that you can chain your second monitor to it.
see > Displays: Mini DisplayPort display must be last in a Thunderbolt chain
Also, can I ask why you suggest putting the 20" on HDMI? If it came to running a single monitor + Thunderbolt RAID setup, I'd like to have the 23" on the HDMI.
Mostly because the Thunderbolt/Mini DisplayPort supports higher resolutions than the HDMI port.
HDMI to DVI only supports 1920x1200
Thunderbolt port supports 2560x1600
Would that be problematic?
Not as long as the 23" monitors native resolution is 1920x1200 or less.

How do you connect two 27" LED Cinema Displays together?

I currently have one screen connected to my MacBook Pro 2010. How do I connect the second screen if I only have one Thunderbolt port?

I Think they can be daisy chained.check your manual for more info to see if your Mac supports this

27" LED Cinema Display – noise and buzz

Hello,
I recently purchased a second hand 27" Apple LED Cinema Display, and I now started to have some issues.
The first issue started today, it is some kind of buzz that comes out of the right speaker whenever I lower the brightness of the screen. I have about the opposite happening for other people – whenever the brightness would be above 3/4, a buzz sound would come up. For me it's when the brightness is below 1/4. The lower the brightness, so higher the pitch of the buzz. How weird is that?
The second issue is that, whenever a sound is played, some kind of white noise starts coming from I believe both speakers of the display. Even if I just adjust the volume on the keyboard (which makes a sound as well), this white noise would come up. It would last around 15-30 seconds, and then it would disappear. If headphones are connected to the Mac Pro, it doesn't happen (and it can't be heard in the headphones either). I once hooked up the Mac Pro to a Panasonic TV to test, and there was no buzz coming from the TV either.
Now I just noticed that the white noise is constantly here since the buzz appeared today (when I lower the brightness). Something is failing here I believe. It could also be the graphics card I guess?
Sometimes I get a very quick weird flash on the screen (black & white stripes I believe) for half a second, then they're gone. It's quite rare so it's hard to troubleshoot. Maybe it has to do with the Cinema Display as well. Or perhaps it is my graphics card (It's a Sapphire HD 7950 3 GB – the Cinema Display is connected with Mini DisplayPort). Or it might just be bad drivers for this card – they were never that good apparently.
Perhaps someone knows more than I do
All helps is appreciated…
Cheers!

No ideas?
