i have a mid 2009 Macbook pro and i have hooked my HDMI cord to my computer and my TV the picture works but i cant figure out how to get the sound to work

That era MacBook Pro doesn't send sound via HDMI so you'll need to connect audio to your TV some other way, either via an analog or digital audio cable:

These Apple computers supply multichannel audio (up to 8 channels) and video signals over Mini DisplayPort:

• MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2012 and later) 1
• MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013)
• MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012)1
• Mac mini (Mid 2010 and later)1
• Mac Pro (Mid 2010)
• MacBook (Mid 2010 and later)
• MacBook Pro (Mid 2010 and later)
• MacBook Air (Late 2010 and later)
• iMac (Late 2009 and later)

No additional adapter is necessary if you are connecting directly to the HDMI port on these specific models.

These Apple computers supply only video signals over Mini DisplayPort:

• iMac (Early 2009) and (Mid 2009)
• Mac Mini (Early 2009) and (Late 2009)
• Mac Pro (Early 2009)
• MacBook (Late 2009)
• MacBook (13-inch Aluminum Late 2008)
• MacBook Pro (late 2008), (Mid 2009), and (Early 2009)
• MacBook Air (Late 2008) and (Mid 2009)

I own a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2009) this MacBook model doesnt support an HDMI port. My MacBooks model has the Mini Displayport which supports video out but does not support audio out. Can someone help me by telling me exactly which Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter with audio will support my model MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2009) and exactly what HDMI wire do i need to buy that will successfully preform digital audio and sadisfying quality visual through TV?
