Problems using on MacBook I ordered this for my MacBook Pro and I plugged the USB in and the green power light came on the speaker. But my sound didn't increase at all. Help?

I have a MacBook Air. I opened the laptop today to work on something and cannot get the screen to come back on. It's just staying dark, even though I can hear noise inside like something is running. It is connected to a power source also. Anybody know any tricks to get the screen to come back on?

You have to go into your system preferences and select the logitech speaker as your audio output.

That's a pretty lame description of the problem. Details, please. "My sound didn't increase at all." This means next to nothing . . .

I am having the same problem with my macbook pro! Whether I plug in these speakers or not (use the ones already on my laptop) there is no difference in sound at all! I came on here for the same reason, to find out if anyone knows what to do about this.

Hmm. I don't recommend you to buy this speaker. It was used with my imac. When sound is quite or low sound, the speaker automatically went to slience. Also sound delay. Two products that i used had same situtation. Don't buy it, and purchase other products

Try going into your settings & selecting "Sound." Then ensure that device for sound output is the TV & not your MacBook Air. Hope this helps.

I think it is defective. I had one I had bought about 8 years ago at an Apple Store that I loved. I used it faithfully for my traveling music classes until it quit working about 2 years ago. I found one on Amazon just like it and bought it right away as it was an absolutely wonderful speaker. It lasted about three months and then just quit (right in the middle of one of my classes!) and even from the beginning the sound was nothing like the unit I bought originally. Mine could not be fixed. I really don't have any advice except that I had to buy a new speaker and I did not purchase the same model!! I think it is defective.

You may need a new cord. I just plugged in the end into the speaker and the USB end into a wall plug like for your iPhone. The USB part also charges with computers and ps3/xboxes to. If it is not working it may be your coord I would email the company.

Make sure to check the sound input/output on your Mac. I had the same issue and it turned out the input/output was wrong.

If your MacBook was made prior to mid 2010, it doesn't pass audio thru hdmi. You will have to use audio cables in addition to the hdmi cable.

My apologies for the long time to respond to this, this is the first time I get asked a question through Amazon. Anyways the power supply worked great for me but the problem could be from the power source or the speakers. So try to test your speaker with the same power supply at another location in your house or a friends house maybe with a portable mp3 player. Also if someone else has the same speakers borrow the power adapter or swap your friend's speakers from the monitor just to test it.

They should just plug into a USB port for power and then your audio out jack - make sure that the volume disk on top of the right one is turned up all the way. if you still are not getting sound, check and make sure that the volume on your computer isn;t turned down or off. If that isn;t the issue you might want to check out your sound card.

Keep at it everyone! I tried pushing the button for 15 seconds, nothing. restarting, nothing. then after several minutes, went back to check to see if there was anything under the bluetooth section on my macbook pro running X 10.10.2 and there was! I paired it and it works great!

Could be: any part of the power cord may have been dislodged, dead battery charge if you're trying to use it without the power cable, or perhaps (this happened to me a few times when I first got it) the ipod didn't respond to the speaker for some unknown reason. After tinkering with it for a few minutes I got it to work again and it hasn't happened since. Or also you may have gotten a lemon. Hope you get it figured out because it is a decent piece of hardware.

Hi there. The speaker Work in PC and Mac. Problem is that static is noisy and would not recommend if you are looking for quality. Not reccomended

Update your blue tooth software through your mac if possible. Check your mac blue tooth and make sure that one its on, second that it's recognizing the speaker. Then manually connect it in the case the speakers auto connect isn't recognizing the mac. If that doesn't work turn off the blue tooth on the mac and hold the blue tooth button on the speaker remote until it starts blinking and when it starts blinking turn the blue tooth on the mac on and let the speaker relearn the mac. That should fix your problem.

The best thing I can think of is to 'delete' the speaker as a device from whatever you were synching it to, then have it 'discover' the speaker again. I seem to remember having to try that when I had been synching it to my iPhone, then switched over to almost exclusively using it with my Macbook.
