IPod not putting out sound on right headphone

As of yesterday, my iPod is not producing any sound through the right headphone. I've tried my headphones on other devices and they work, and also tried other headphones on my ipod and the right headphone still has no sound.
It seems like a problem with the connection because when I jiggle the headphone jack, I get brief bursts of soun (it seems like if I physically hold the headphone jack towards the back of the ipod, it helps).
Anyone else encounter this or have a suggestion?

or Google for more. You can either have them fix it or buy the part and do it yourself.

IPod doesn't broadcast sound to right headphone

...pretty much...I've had this for a while, and its just now breaking...i've tried the five R's and all that, nothing yet.
Also,
how the heck to you email apple?
do they have no support email?
why would i want to call them when i can email them....meh.

well..whatever, doesn't matter anymore, I just phoned into an Apple store, asked for a real person (-.-) and the lady said I could get a new (same generation (5th)) iPod even though it isn't covered by warranty. Apparently people have been having the same issue, so just do what i did, phone into your nearest apple center, OR
call 877-416-4271
that will give you the same people that i called.
Good luck with your problems :P

How do you get multiple live instruments to put out sound?

I just got a M-Audio 61 keyboard from my wife for our anniversary. I love it and it works great with GarageBand 1.X. I also have a guitar I use with GB. It is plugged in the 1/8 in. mini jack input in the back of the Mac. I however can't get both to put out sound at the same time. Lets say, for instance, that I would play the guitar and my wife the keys. How can I get both to put out sound at the same time?
Thank for any help you can offer.
Your friend in Mac OS X,
Jose

Danke Christoph!
I was glad to get your response. I thought I was not doing something right in GarageBand. I'll get GB2 and try out multiple live sources.
Once again thanks.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

My ipod audio only coming through the right headphone whats wrong?, My ipod audio only coming through the right headphone whats wrong?

Ive tried with mulitple headphones but my audio on my ipod is only coming through the right headphone. Whats wrong with my ipod? WIll I need to purchase another one?

I don't know if this is a common issue: I bought an iphone from someone and notice that only the plug design of the stereo headphone that comes with it fits in its receptacle. I tried others that are generally for the same size but they can't go deep enough in the receptacle thus can't get any audio. One thing I noticed is that this iphone's receptacle is deeper in the device than usual, so any other plugs other than the one provided can't fit. I can't use my external speakers with it!!! I fail to understand this. All all iphones like this or is it a defect particular to mine? After all, my ipod touch doesn't have this issue! If anybody knows, please tell me.

No sound will come out of the right headphone, but they work on my other devices..is this a common problem for the classic?

Two headphones are now in limbo due to a strange curse my iPod Classic 160Gb seems to hae. Affter a couple of weeks, sound will cease to emit form the right headphone unless i jiggle the plugs cable around. Funny thing is, my headphones work fine on other devices..Is this a common problem?

I tried to update my driver and it works fine now, I appreciate looking through this forum and finding answers for problems that I am having.

My ipod video wont play sound through the headphone jack or the bottom connector

Hello everyone. I have an iPod Video 60GB (supports video output through the headphone jack). Which I believe was the last one before the iPod "classic".
Anyways awhile back it stopped outputting sound through the headphone jack, I assumed I had damaged the jack itself as commonly happens but it stopped outputting sound through the dock connector to my ipod speaker dock and my cars ipod connector. The clicker wont make any noise either.
When I tried to search for an answer to this problem years ago I couldnt find anything and knowing it would be out of warrenty I put it aside and forgot about it. Having searched again recently it seems as if this could be the audio processor or some component on the board coming loose? Has anyone outlined this problem with pictures and steps to repair it?
I *may* take it in and pay the $30 but I would much prefer to fix it myself. Thank you for any help with this.

Update: The model # is MA147LL. Not sure why my edit didnt take effect.

IPhone only putting out sound to left earbud.

I updated to 5.1.1 and now my iPhone is no longer playing sound out of the right earbud, only the left. The handfree controls and volume buttons work but there is no sound coming out of the right earbud. I tried two different pairs and both had the same issue.
Is this related to the update or did my iPhone (model a1332, 16gb iPhone 4) just quit playing?

I did try a reset/restore on my phone. I went back to the most recent backup before I upgraded and still had the issue of Apple branded earbuds not working. Any third party earbuds worked as I tested two different pairs.
At this point, I have to think that it is a hardware issue with my iPhone. However, I find it odd that only the left earbud works on Apple earbuds and also that the hands free microphone works as well as the iPod controls.
I've investigated every setting that I can in both the iPod menu and the Accessability menu with no luck on rectifying the issue.

NI Stepper Motor not putting out enough torque

So I have a motion control system with a P70360, UMI 7772, PXI 7332, and a NEMA 23 stepper motor with 380 oz-in. The purpose of the set up is to rotate horizontally a testing fixture and hold it in position (slowly). Previously the set up was using a motor with 180 oz-in but it was decided that it wasn't enough torque seeing as it wasn't able to fully rotate the fixture, also using a step resolution of 18000, current reduction is disabled, multistepping is enabled, dynamic smoothing is minimal, and load-inertia ratio is set to 0-1.
When the 380oz-in motor was plugged in it was still unable to rotate the platform completely but it wasn't even able to rotate it as far as the 180 oz-in which leads me to believe it was outputting less torque than it should have been. The only reasoning I could think of for this was that there was an issue with the settings somehow where it was limiting the power being fed into the motor for whatever reason. So I walked through the manual (http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/372324d.pdf) and it still wasn't giving enough torque.
I also read that decreasing the step size would increase the torque so I reduced it to 200 and it started making a grinding noise, which made everyone in the lab stare at me and start laughing... I immediately hit the kill motor button (I've been controlling it using NI MAX).
So far I can't seem to find anything that mentions the motor making a grinding noise or not pulling enough torque while using the P70360 so here I am asking the community. Why is the motor making the grinding noise (which also seems to become less the higher the step resolution is) and why isn't the motor putting out more torque?
Also of note, I'm an electrical engineer, meaning my understanding of mechanical terms is limited to the basics.
Thanks for any help you can give.
DISCLAIMER: I'm a hardware engineer so I may not be familiar with some concepts/terminology/best practices so... patience is appreciated

I can't get too specific about the dimensions but it's a rectangular platform about 8 inches wide and 25 inches long (axis of rotation goes through the long way). There are also the UUT seating on one side which is what's causing the imbalance but by placing my lab notebook on the other side it balances out. I would estimate my book to weigh around 2 pounds.
The exact weight I'm not sure, the platform is attached to two stands through some type of bearings and the motor is turning a part of the shaft that is sticking out slightly.
On another note though, I decided to attach a oscilloscope to the motor to verify the signals were correct. I had made all the connections, double checked them to make sure all my connections were correct and weren't shorting then turned on the power. As soon as I did there was a white flash from the driver, I turned off the power, and I could smell something was burning. I took the lid off but couldn't see any immediate burn marks anywhere nor was there any visible smoke, just the odor. I decided not to try it again and my principal engineer has been trying to convince me to use another companies motion system. So sadly this may be the last well funded venture into NI motion control I take.
I'm still going to try to get in touch with a rep and see what I can do about it including taking into consideration the possibility of a gearbox but it's going to have to be on my spare time :'(

IPod no longer puts out sound, tried multiple resets/headphones

I have had my iPod for years, I believe I purchased it in 2006, and only days ago did it lose sound. I have tried to reset it, kill the battery, and I have also tried multiple headphones that work on other devices, to no avail. I've always had issues with it freezing, but never losing sound. It still indicates that it's playing, but no sound. Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this?

It sounds like you have attempted all the known troubleshooting techniques. It's more than likely that the headphone jack is a gone and is in need of replacement.

My iPod touch (3rd gen) isn't putting out sound other than static and high pitched noises through the tv hookup, the built in speakers, and headphones. Can anyone tell me what's wrong and how to fix it?

Everything on my iPod touch (3rd gen) works just fine except the audio out put.

Try #2 and #3 in link below. If neither work, you most likely have a hardware issue. Contact Apple or a third-party service center.

Sound is not coming out of speakers, but headphones work?

I have a Satellite L505-S5990 laptop. Today while I was sitting at home browsing the Internet, I realized there was no sound coming out of the speakers. It was working just fine minutes before. It was sitting on the counter the entire time and it just silently stopped working.
So I grabbed some headphones and plugged them in and they worked.
I restarted the computer, still no sound coming from speakers.
Windows 7 found no problems while troubleshooting the sound.
I downloaded the Automated Troubleshooting Services to diagnose and fix sound playback issues from Microsoft but that didn't find any issues.
I uninstalled the sound driver and installed the one that came with this laptop. I still get the same result. No sound from speakers but headphones work.
Can anyone please tell me how to fix this?
Thanks!!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Just want to add another relieved reader of this thread. I had lost the sound to my speakers even though I had sound to headphones. I was convinced it was a damaged headphone jack because I had pushed the headphone plug in harder the last evening when my wife complained that she could still hear the speakers while I listened with the headphones. The next morning--no speaker sound.
I spent a few hours searching the web to see how to disassemble a satellite A505 and get to the jack. But I wasn't even sure I could get a proper replacement jack that fit, and I was concerned that small damage, say to the ribbon connectors could render the computer useless--a large price to pay for just missing audio.
Fortunately, I stumbled onto this thread and I recalled I had put the unit to sleep the night before--something I don't usually do, but I didn't want all the Chrome web sites to have to reload so I just put it to sleep.
When I put it to sleep again and fired it up--Sound! I am so glad to find this solution so I just want to let people know it remains a viable option.

Why do constant CC updates matter? Adobe is not putting out many essential updates anymore.

Reading these posts on CC I have continually come across people who claim that to be a serious professional in a creative field you need to have your Adobe software up to date. How does one compete if they are using old Adobe software? As someone who has been working in the field for a long time I don’t see how this could be any further from the truth. Yes, I do believe that you need software that is relatively up to date but I don’t believe you need the new software that is coming from Adobe. The software that I really need has been coming from third party plug-ins. This is probably the main reason I have a problem with the rental software; it keeps pushing new updates on you even when they are the wrong updates. Below are many examples at how over the past several years the 3rd party has constantly delivered and Adobe has faltered.
When I first tried out InDesign’s automatic text flow feature I couldn’t get it to work even after asking around on several different online forums. I was told about some plug-ins that could do auto text flow and after I tried it everything worked.
I later found that when I would add or delete a page that had facing pages my layout would get completely messed up. How could I fix this problem? By upgrading to a new version of ID? Nope, new versions of ID didn’t fix that. I fixed the problem by buying a plug-in.
I once had a client who sent me a Word file that was loaded with grammar errors. In a perfect world the content editor should be the one mostly in charge of fixing grammar but as we all know we don’t live in a perfect world. Unfortunately ID does not provide grammar checking at all. This feature has been available in Word since like, what, 1988(?) but it won’t work on the absolutely latest version of ID. It will work with a plug-in.
The history panel is a feature that has been available since about PS 5. It has provided some of the most basic functionality of a graphics program; the ability to go back a few steps. Since this is such a basic feature it’s made it’s way to other apps like Fireworks and Lightroom. It’s even available in consumer apps like PS Elements. So how can you run this basic feature in a professional program like ID FIFTEEN YEARS after it was released in PS 5? Get a plug-in.
Hey look! The new features page says that CC finally comes with built in barcode support! Hallelujah!! Praise the Lord! Now there is a feature that I can use! True, I needed the feature three years ago when I was making ID badges and, yes, I already spent hundreds of dollars buying a plug-in that can more then adequately do that functionality already, but hey better late then never right? Good things surely do come to those who wait!
Huh? What is that I am now reading? The barcode software only supports the pattern type of barcodes and not the standard line type found on just about every kind of merchandise know to mankind? My client needed the standard kind of barcode. When is that going to be released? Do I have to wait another three years?
The fact of the matter is that Adobe has come out with THREE major updates since I last upgraded and I can still barely find enough important features that would make the update worthwhile. New features this time around include things like font management (even though every serious designer already has font management software) and a different color interface.
This shortage of new worthwhile features is certainly not due to there being enough features that need improvement. For an example doing a very simple data merge with a basic layout is still immensely complicated. I would be overjoyed if they made that process as simple and powerful as it should be. Instead what we will get is more pointless updates that will only break the important plug-ins that I rely on to get my work done on tight deadlines. You know how web browsers with bi-monthly updates (Firefox, Chrome) keep breaking your browsers plug-ins except this time instead of breaking goofy trivial plug-ins that let you do things like check the weather they will break important ones that you need to rely on to get work done.
The plug-ins developers will have to dedicate an enormous amount of time checking to see if their software works with every little ID update that comes out. This means they will have less time to working on features even though they are the ones making the best advancements.

Yes, I realize that Firefox is free, but that doesn't really negate the validity of anyone's frustrations. I just wish they would warn people better about the problems that the updates can cause before asking people to update. Most people rely very heavily on their computers for work, etc. and not everyone has the time or ability to easily undo the problems that the updates cause. Again, if it was just a one-time thing that I've had to deal with, I wouldn't mind as much.

IPod touch 4g - No sound (Speaker and headphones)

So my Mum drops my iPod into a toilet (long story), and no it will not play music through the speaker, or through the headphones. There is also no little volume bar thing in the "now playing" section, the volume buttons do sweet F.A, and when you press the square button and slide across to the volume bar, there is not cirlce showing me what the volume level is at. I have only ever seen this behaviour when it is plugged into my docking station, and it still plays music through that, so my conclusion is that it thinks there is always something plugged into the docking port. How can I fix this? Or how much will it cost to get fixed? (I have had it less than a month, no insurance, water damage)

Have you tried drying your iPod like specified here:
