I bought thus for my PC and I don't know about compatibility for mac. I would contact Belkin and ask.

Victoria - I use the cable for exactly that purpose. As long as your TV has N HDMI input it should work fine for you. I am using a new MacBook Pro. Hope that helps.

Hi, I just bought this TV and I have a Netflix account. I'm trying to stream Netflix on my TV but I can't hear audio. I bought an HDMI cable and connected it to my Macbook Pro. This TV functions nicely as a giant monitor, but I want to be able to watch movies with the audio coming out of the TV. Does anybody know how to do this? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! I was trying to find a Netflix ready icon on the box -- it doesn't have one. I'm assuming I can't?

The Fosmon mini displayPort (MiniDP/mDp) to HDMI works well. The problem I had at first with my MacBook Pro wasthat I did not have my display option set to "Mirror" the computer's screen. Now I watch movies etc. on my HDTV.

I had to go into system preferences (Mac) and change speaker settings. It should recognize your new TV as an external device and give you an option to select. Hope this works!

Now, I'm very new to Mac so a lot of you Apple lovers probably know this already, but for Mac newbies (myself included), you need to go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES and choose DISPLAY, APPEARANCE and click on MIRROR DISPLAY to get the video on your TV. And to get the sound from your Mac to your TV go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES and choose SOUND, OUTPUT and click on BUILT-IN HDMI OUTPUT and that should do the trick. Hope that helps folks out there.

Will this work on early 2008 Macbook? Since I want it to connect to my HDTV which has a digital optical audio out.

"Doesn't work" is not very descriptive. I have three of these all on Dell monitors. So first, what do you mean "on my macbook pro"? That is a laptop and the soundbar is designed to mount on the bottom of a standalone (Dell) monitor. I don't see any reasonable way to use this with a macbook other than mounted to a Dell monitor that is being used as an external display (with the appropriate Apple Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter, or as appropriate for your macbook.) Then plug the video input cable from the soundbar to the headphone jack on your macbook.

I don't know about Amazon Prime. I can mirror my MacBook Pro on the TV by using a cord, but for Netflix I just use an AppleTV in one of the HDMI slots and stream all day long--works great. You can also get a WiFi capable DVD player and stream to Netflix from there and also Hulu. So far as I know, you can't stream Amazon Prime to your TV unless you are connecting your computer to the TV with a cord and mirroring the screen from there....I just use my iPad if watching Amazon Prime.

You don't need to buy any cables for the Mac, the transmitter plugs into any of the USB ports.For the TV you need an HDMI cable to link it to the receiver.Yes it transmits audio and video over HDMI

If you have an HDMI out - then yes directly. You have a DisplayPort/Thunderbolt - then get a DisplayPort-HDMI adapter - then you can connect it, this is how I connected my parents mac mini to their HD TV. Sound is separate in this case. If you are also looking for sound to travel - The best route may be use an AppleTV and send your display to the AppleTV.

it only lets whats on your computer play onto a tv, it won't let you hook anything up into the macbook. I'm actually not sure but I don't think MacBooks support video in.

Sabrina, I connected it to my Macbook Pro through a "Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter". You can buy it from amazon for less than $10. Good luck!

Has anyone tried an HDMI connection from a computer into his receiver? I'm considering hooking up a Mac Mini to it and using media server software to send it audio and video.
