I'm not getting any output in DP8, I've tried everything and the only output I can assign is Unknown 1-2, assigning buses does not help and there is no Built-In Output option... Any ideas?

1. Launch Audio MIDI Setup (Applications folder -> Utilities folder).
2. On the left side, select Pro Tools Aggregate I/O.
3. On the right side, you’ll see the name USB Audio Codec twice. One represents Input, the other output. Click in the box next to both so you see a check mark.
4. Remove the check mark in the Resample box next to the input.
5. Close Audio MIDI Setup.
6. Launch Pro Tools 9.
7. Under the Setup menu, open the Playback Engine dialog box.
8. At the top where it says Current Engine, select Pro Tools Aggregate I/O, then hit OK.
9. Under the Setup menu, select I/O.
10. Select Input, then press the Default button to create a Stereo input path.
11. Next, create two mono paths to record your guitar by hitting the New Path button. Type in the number of mono channels you want (I chose 2), then hit Create. You should see that Input 2 and 3 have been added to the matrix.
12. On the Input 2 line, click in the empty box below the “L” so that you add an “M” below it. For the Input 3 line, click in the empty box below the “R” to add an “M”. Now you’ve assigned your mono inputs.
13. Click on the Output button at the to of the screen and hit the Default button. You should see Built-in Output 1-2.
Does that help?

Need a little more info like what audio interface you're using? How is DP Hardware Setup configured? Worse case scenario is if you configure DP to use Windows Audio it should output to the onboard device (whatever you have configured in the Sound Control Panel). If you're using an ASIO device some more info would help. I'm not sure why davidthriller is telling you how to configure PT on a Mac.

Yes.
You can run Audio MIDI Setup from the Applications/Utilities folder in Windows?
