[QUOTE="walkerj, post: 321679, member: 9385"] I assume you are using Audacity, or possibly Garage Band to attempt your recordings. Unfortunately, there is no way to get at least Audacity to do the 'stereo mix' thing for recording streams. I had thought my Mac Mini just wasn't up to snuff or because it didn't have an audio input and that was why, but found later that it just can't be done. Audacity developers themselves have stated that it can't be done on a Mac for whatever reason. However, for a small fee of the type most cool software for the Mac requires, AudioHijack will do exactly what you want. (And it's what the Audacity website suggests for the Mac.) In fact it'll record just the sound input from a particular app, such as iTunes or whatever other audio you point it to, without recording other sounds like mail notifications and the like. Yeah, it kind of sucks but that seems to be how it is. In the meantime I continue to use Windows to record streams. Haven't tried recording under Parallels because I have the windows option but that might work as well. [/QUOTE]
