I can not get audio working through firewire on my late 2013 MacBook Pro 13".
If I test channels in channel setup it gives me static, but if I play iTunes od Spybot nothing happens.
Internal speakers work fine.
Any ideas what to do?
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013)
It doesn't have a Firewire port based on the specs.

How are you connecting it?
I am connecting it through the firewire thunderbolt adapter. Then firewire 400/800 cable, because Presonus mixer has Firewire s400 port.
Funny is that iTunes worked fine in the morning. Then I started to check why I can not play Youtube through firewire. From Audio MIDI Setup - Presonus Firestudio - Output - Configure Speakers I changed Multichannel channels. That was all I changed.
I can't offer much here, as I don't have any way to try to duplicate this. The obvious question though is did you try changing it back?
Yes. I have tryed everything I can think of.
Question is - if the static comes through then why audio is not coming?
In Audio Devices - Configure Speakes there is two options - Stereo and Multichannel. Both af them have a blue dot in channels window.
Maybe MacBook is trying to send out multichannel signal when it only needs stereo signal?
Is it possible the issue is at the mixer end? Do you have a way to test that?
You could also try a reboot. It could be something is just messed up in RAM.
I already tryed reboot. Did not work.
I do not think it is at the end of mixer, because statid is going through.
I go and check with Apple Store on monday.
Audio output via firewire
