I'm using a Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga with a mini HDMI to HDMi converter and then this adaptor & not getting sound using the adaptor jack. Suggestions?

I have used this adapter only for video data - to display what was on my computer screen on the projection screen. There was no audio data included in my projection. That said, I would check all the usual suspects - are all the cables secure? - are the speakers connected? - are the speakers on? - is the sound card ok? Is the mini HDMI-HDMI converter ok? After checking that all the mechanical pieces are right, I'd reboot everything and try again. I hope this helps. Best regards, TNF

Did you select SOURCE and the proper HDMI port on your TV (not cable) remote ? Have successfully used the adapter cable on several different TV models. You also have to go into the System Preferences (Mac) or Control Panel (PC) to select the proper sound output

I read that audio is not supported, BUT will the laptop/chromebook audio speakers still work or by plugging into the HDMI port it cuts out the audio of the laptop.

Sounds like a defective cable. I bought a micro hdmi to hdmi cable and it works great. Not so well with a micro hdmi adapter. If it doesn't work with another cable and/or the VGA cable, then the unit is probably defective.

This HDMI to VGA adaptor works great for the video only. No sound. I hope this helps.

It sounds like you did everything correct. Try other ports on the TV. My tv has PC, HDMI 1 and 2 and when I have my laptop hooked up to the tv I have to use the HDMI 2 setting. Good luck.

You will need to connect audio between the laptop and whatever amp/speakers you require (even your laptop speakers might be usable.) In any case, you may likely need to change your audio settings on the laptop so HDMI audio is not in use. There may be some audio breakout boxes for HDMI cables, but for the price and addtional hardware involved, its not worth it. I've never used one.

My Lenovo is about 2 years old. I connect an HDMI cable into this, then into my laptop and the sound and video come through the TV. The only issue I have had with sound related to my OS setup which had changed when I connected the laptop to a monitor. I simply had to adjust the settings back to what is was before, then the video and sound played through the TV. Hope that helps.

I didnt have an issue with mine.You have it the receiver to automatically detect and send audio?Maybe try a different HDMI?

Two things: 1. Make sure that the TV option for sound is set to the internal speakers, otherwise it will direct the sound signal to the mini-plug sound output jack on the back of the set (this is used to send the signal to another amplifier to drive external speakers). 2. Make sure that any routing of the HDMI signal to and from other devices is arranged properly (i.e. devices->inputs of receiver and Input to TV is from the TV-out hdmi port)

A friend of mine used this adapter with another computer (not Lenovo) and it works. Just remember that there isn't sound.

I just got my converter today and it is not working! I have an ASUS laptop with HDMI out and I am trying to connect it to my older VGA monitor.

Mine works fine. I'd try to reset your computer and/or confirm that the audio out is automatically switching to the display port (when TV is turned on). Win 7 automatically does this (not sure about older OS systems). You may also want to look for an updated audio driver for your laptop.

The one I purchased worked fine and I had sound. you just had to get up and push the button to change the channel if you will between the different devices. Sounds like you could have a faulty adapter.

go into the sound options on your computer (which you can access in your control panel) then set your sound default as HDMI, might fix your problem.
