In-ear headphones buzzing

I got some new in-ear headphones a little bit ago. The right ear has this buzzing/crackling sound. Is there any way to fix it or get a replacement pair?

If you're within the return policy, you can take them back for an exchange. Otherwise, they are covered by a 1-year warranty in which you can get them replaced at a Genius Bar or your nearest Apple Authorized Service Provider.

Do third party replacement tips fit on the apple in ear headphones? I prefer foam tips as they block out much more sound, but I'm not sure if Apple use the standard fitting for headphone tips!?!?!?!

Do third party replacement tips fit on the apple in ear headphones? I prefer foam tips as they block out much more sound, but I'm not sure if Apple use the standard fitting for headphone tips!?!?!?!

Answer found. Please find below an amazon review explicitly mentioning adding third party foam tips. Sounds like they fit and work like a dream:
"As a audio engineer, I own about a dozen different sets of earphones and in-ear 'phones. My favorite, by far, are my sure SE530s. I have some Sennheiser cx400s which are good workhorses, but lack the finesse, clarity and stunning accuracy of the Shures. For convenience, I bought the Apple's, as I wanted something I could use with the phone for calls.
I found the sound to be quite clear and beautifully clean, but like many, no matter how I tried, the stock Apple tips never made a good seal. The seal is absolutely essential to getting bass out of a balanced armature design. For you non-engineers, just trust me that if you don't have a proper seal, you will have no bass.
In my case, I think the trouble had to do with the largest size being a tiny bit too small, and the silicon being too rigid, yet slick, so they left small airgaps and were easy to remove. I tried using some foam tips from a third party, but their large was more of a medium, and never came close to a snug fit.
As an experiment, I dug around in my ear-tips from my Shure's and tried their rubber tips which are about the same size as Apple's large tips, but made of a more pliant and slightly sticky rubber.
OMG, what a transformation. Suddenly the sound blossomed, the bass became rich and well balanced, and the "top-heavy" sound was totally mellowed into a rich, well balanced and incredibly detailed presentation.
Make no mistake, these are the best 'phones under $200 I have ever heard. The bass is deep and warm, very detailed, and totally lacking fuzz or buzz that I can hear in the Sennheiser set. Look at getting tips from a better headphone. The trick is it has to have a soft rubber base that can expand over Apple's slightly larger stub. Some tips, like the Shure foam tips, have a rigid plastic sleave in the tip to keep it's position correct, and these won't expand over the larger Apple posts."

I lost one of the earbuds for my Apple In-ear Headphones with Mic. Now what do It do?

I lost one of the earbuds for my Apple In-ear Headphones with Mic.
In case you don't see why this could be a big deal, let me remind you that these little earphones will run you $79 new. Naturally, I'm sure there's got to be a reasonable solution that another owner of these headphones may know of or can share with me.
Should I bring it to the Apple store or will they just laugh at me?
Basically, all I'm missing is the jelly-like in-ear bud on one side (which is easily replaceable; I just need to know where I can order GENUINE extras from).
Click here to see the Apple In-ear Headphones I'm referring to.

I've tried several and the best by far is the Sennheiser MM50 iP ($99 at the apple store). The sound is incredible, particularly the low frequecy response (bass). These are even better than the Bose Triports I used for my iPod, plus they have the mic and button for recieving calls and ipod playback. I also have the airdrives, which don't even compare for sound quality and range because they aren't in-ear (they sit directly in front of the ear canal). I still use the airdrives in situations where I want music distraction but still want to hear what's happening around me, but for in-ear sound quality and iPhone functionality I don't think you're going to find better for the Sennheisers for under $100. In fact I don't think their is anything under $250 right now that would match it for performance, comfort and functionality.
Note: these are asymmetrical which means the cord for the right earbud goes behind your neck to the right ear. I found this strange at first but now I actually like it because it allows you to pull the earlplugs out and just let them rest over your neck/shoulders.

Did you know about iphone in ear headphone Two drivers in each earpiece ?

i just wanna prepare to buy a new iphone in ear headphone
Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic
£65.00
is so expensive but some youtube user said it is prefect for sound quality so what is your opinion ?

No I have my own iPhone iPad and MacBook so everything is set up on devices that are mine and as far as I know I never connected to anyone else's device and logged with my apple ID. But are you saying it is possible for someone to have obtained my apple ID and send an iMessage from their device with my contact information so it looks like it came directly from me? It's crazy I looked down at my iPhone and saw this message had just been sent that I did not type or send

Apple in-ear headphones do not work with iPhone5

I have some Apple branch in-ear headphones, which do not fully function with my new iPhone5. I had the iPhone4, and they worked flawlessly with that, but now they are just plain old headphones, none of the click functions work. Is this a bug?

FYI, this resolved itself. I think the connection in the iPhone needed to have some coating or something removed. Inserting and removing the headphone connector a bunch of times, and then it started working.

as stated they all die just a question of luck how long they live

What is the safe music listening level for regular and in-ear headphones?

I am wondering what the safe music listening level for regular and in-ear headphones is. I heard it was 50% volume for regular headphones but what about the new 60$ in-ear ones? I am going to get them soon.

Just turn it up enough for you to enjoy the music. Even prolonged low volume sound can have long term negative effects on your hearing. It also depends on your listening environment. In a dead silent room you won't need very much volume. I have my cranked pretty high on when riding my motorcycle to work. Just don't take your hearing for granted. Constant ringing in your ears will suck.

I wanted to ask, are actually in-ear headphones in the "apple care" for iphones with the Service & Support?

Everything that came in the box should be covered.

In-Ear Headphones...but which ear?

So i finally got myself some Apple In-ear headphones. But one odd thing i noticed. When first opening the packaging, the left earbud is on the right side of the carry case.
Does this mean that the left earbud caps are on the left side, or on the left side of the carry case??

Any in-ear headphones with a 3.5 mm stereo jack are iPod compatible.

To The first question, If you've got a rocker on the left hand side of your touch (for volume) that's a 2g touch and the second question, You don't need to do anything to use the volume control play/pause track forward/back, it works out of the box. I've just bought the apple headphones with mike & remote & just plugged them in and they worked without me doing anything

In-Ear Headphones Warranty Question

My non-Apple headphones are dead - a wire is probably loose at the connector (most common problem I have with headphones).
I'm probably going to purchase the Apple In-Ear headphones. Does it come with a one-year warranty?
If the cord or connector goes bad will I be able to get it replaced at an Apple Store while under warranty even if I purchase it at another authorized reseller - or, must I purchase it at an Apple Store to get it serviced/replaced there?

Nobody here can say - fakes can be very convincing. If you are worried about that then don't buy from an auction. Buy from an authorised re-seller or from Apple themselves.
Remember, if the price makes the offer sound too good to be true, then it probably is.

Any standard 3.5mm stereo splitter will do:

Make sure it is 1 male > 2 female, as above.
