I'm having trouble getting surround sound while my laptop is plugged in. Mar 28, 93 0 4, What year is your MBP? You'll need to open up your Owner's Manual and do some reading. The problem, very few TV sets have this option available from their menu. Some will call it 'Overscan', 'Just Scan', or some variation thereof. The next is to open up System Preferences - Displays - head for 'Options' on the TV preferences window and uncheck overscan.

You will now have a black border around all 4 sides of the screen. If you are lazy like me, you'll live with this. To fix this, you have two options. The how to for this is outside the scope I'm currently prepared to go into at this time. A little searching and you should find some fine tutorials for either one of them. For a starting point resolution use x This should work for any TV that will accept input and includes practically all p sets.

I have a duplicate copy of my desktop or All I have is the background and nothing else.

There are two modes available with your external display, mirroring and extended desktop. Mirroring does just what it says. It mirrors or provides the exact same desktop on both displays. Extended Desktop provides a 2nd desktop separate from your primary display. You can drag any apps you wish to use on this display from your primary screen and use one screen for watching a movie and the other for browsing the web. To change between the 2 modes, open up System Preferences - Displays and then the Appearance tab. Mirrored Mode If you want the same thing on both screens, you'll put a check in the 'Mirror displays' box.

Extended Desktop Mode If you want to make use of the additional screen real estate, you'll uncheck the 'Mirror displays' box to enter Extended Desktop mode. Once you're in Extended Desktop mode and still in Displays preferences, you'll have a second window that will show you a picture of your 2 displays. You can move them around to match the way you have your physical displays setup and making it easier to move your cursor from one screen to another. You'll also notice one of them has a white bar at the top of it. This represents your menu bar.

You can drag and drop the menu bar from one screen to the other. Moving it to the external display will make it the primary display whenever it's connected. You do not need to go back in and change it when it's disconnected. Your Mac will know your single display is the primary when the other one is not connected.

I'm not getting any sound Once everything is connected properly, make sure you head to System Preferences - Sound and select the headphone output or for the newer models that support audio via the mini displayport, the device you have it connected to. To learn which connection you need to use on your TV for audio - See the very next post starting with " Second ". Beginning with the late iMac, the mid notebooks and Mini, the mini displayport supports audio. Volume is very low on my exterior speakers. Realize the headphone jack that you're using for audio out is not a true "line out" jack.

What this means to you: If you have the volume muted or turned all the way down on your Mac, you're not going to get any audio on your external speakers. Then you'll be able to control the volume from your TV or AVR remote much better - without the need of turning it up too high. You need to determine for sure, not what someone else told you the type of port you have on your Mac.

You can do this at everymac. Select the type of your Mac from the first list, then select your specific Mac from the next list. Once on this page, you'll find all sorts of useful info related to the shipping configuration of your machine. In the specifications section, Click on the "Ports and Connectivity" tab. The first item in the list is "Video Monitor: If you also see this note: You will need to go to the "Second" section.

Mini Display Port to RCA?

Currently, only the late iMac and the mid MBP models forward carry audio through their mini displayport. If you plan on the sound coming from the TV, you have a little more work to do. It's time to open up the Owner's Manual for your TV. Once you have it in hand, you're looking for the "Connections" section.

Typically, you'll find it in the diagrams. Some of them will have a little note tucked away that their HDMI may not work with a computer. The diagram will show you which HDMI port s may be used along with the type of audio cable required and where it must be plugged in. The note in Red above - many of the TVs that allow you to use "any" HDMI port have an audio setting that will need to be changed - from Digital to Analog for the port you're using with your Mac.

Panasonic is one. Most of them use the old standard RCA jacks, while some notably Samsung uses a stereo mini-plug. Please see the following section for a list of the adapters that will carry audio.

Adapters: Make Some Important Connections

Adapters and Cables. After you've been to everymac. It is both - a stereo 3. Except for at least some of the MacBook Airs whose port is analog only. Optical Unknown. The following mini-displayport to HDMI adapters and one cable carry audio: The Amazon prices do fluctuate a fair amount, so check them all out there. There are a great many more that do not carry audio.

The problem, every one and their mother has jumped on the ship with adapters that are listed as carrying the audio that really don't. We have had a couple of them listed that were verified to work, and then the manufacturer of the adapter changes and even the wording of the exact link changed from "Supports Audio" to "Does not carry audio". Bottom line: You're on your own purchasing one of the cheapie adapters from Amazon - you can no longer rely on the user reviews there either, because reviews were given based on adapters that did carry audio, they ran out and changed to an adapter that doesn't carry audio.

Take your chances on saving a few bucks and a possible headache or just buy one of the above adapters that will work.

I asked at the university bookstore and they told me that apple doesn't make a cable for that connection.

Any ideas where I can find one?

When you get up to this many posts, it's next to impossible to find anything. At least if they're all here in the same place, I can say "Go back and look at post 15" instead of trying to find one where I already put what to do with that xyz brand TV.
