No sound in left headphone

This is my first macbook.
Mine is Macbook Pro 13" 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5.
OS is OS X 10.6.8.
It was ok at the beginning but there has been no sound in left headphone from the some point which I don't remember.
My headphone works fine when it is connected to other devices like iPhone.
And left/right balance on Sys Pref is also in center.
This is very irritating for me.
Did anyone have the same problem and fix it?

sorry i am not so good with computers etc so this is maybe not help to you but this is just telling my experience=)
I had the same thing which happened but on my ipod and i took it to the apple store, and the person told me there are 2 connectors in the socket one for each earphone, and one was knocked out of place so they gave me a new iPod
maybe they will do the same for your macbook=)

  • Loss of sound in left headphone.

    I bought an 80g classic 2 weeks ago and a few days ago i lost sound in my left headphone. I switched headphones to see if my headphones was the proble and still no sound in the left one and assumed its an iPod problem. Is there any way to fix this problem? or do i go to Bestbuy and exchange it for a new one?? Thanks.

    Only two weeks old? Go back and exchange it. Since you've already tested the headphones, there's nothing you can do that would not void the warranty.

  • TS3274 No sound in left headphone (it's not the headphones!)

    I've read a lot of other support questions on here about the exact same issue which leads me to believe this might be an OS issue. Basically my headphones do not work on the left side (only on my first gen iPad!). They work fine on everything else. I've reset the iPad by holding down the sleep and apple key together for 10 secs, that doesn't work. I've checked both accessibility and sound settings and the stereo settings are in the middle so no probs there but still I have no sound in my left earphone.
    Please help!

    Looks like nobody knows how to fix a headphone jack on here then?..........
    I went to the Genius bar in Cardiff St Davids 2 shopping centre. The guy who saw me checked the headphones and said 'Yep, we can fix it for you for £199" to which my reply was "errrr - doesn't a 2nd hand iPad cost less than that?..."
    so thanks Apple - thanks for nothing

  • No sound from left speaker headphone out

    Suddenly no sound coming from left speaker through headphone output only. Records in stereo plays in stereo but no sound on left. Tried all the usual suspects ....no luck.  Any suggestions

    Nowhere near enough information to go on, really. If this is a switched socket and the speaker works when it's not connected, then there's either a socket fault or a headphone fault.  Try it with another pair of headphones and see if it still happens. If it doesn't, you have faulty headphones. If it does, then you have some sort of a wiring or socket fault.

  • TS1574 Sound only from Left Headphone w/ MacBook Pro

    Any external headphone that I use with my 13" Macbook Pro, the sound only comes out of the left headphone. The slider in my System Preferances is in the middle, and the headphones are all the way into the jack. Any ideas?

    Often resetting the settings helps.
    Syst.Preference > Sound > Output > External
    Try Reset SMC.

  • Volume too low on left headphones

    I have had my iPod for about 3 months, and yesterday, it suddenly lowered the volume only on the left headphone. I have restored and updated the iPod, but it hasn't fixed the problem. I also increased the sound volume, etc. but that only made the right headphone too loud, and the left headphone only a little louder. I am concerned that there is something wrong with the jack -- but it is only 3 months old. I hope this isn't a sign that this purchase was a mistake... Any ideas?

  • Only sound from left with sum stack

    Hello! When I create a sum stack this happens (only sound from left speaker:

    All the tracks that I used to create Sum 1 worked perfectly (like Sum 2). What to do?

    Hi
    There is no problem. As you said the notebook supports Line-in; headphone & S/PDIF jack and Microphone jack.
    If you want to connect the HiFI or another device you have to choose the headphone & S/PDIF jack. Only this port provides the audio outputting.
    The both another jacks provide only the function for signal (sound) receiving!
    My notebook provides the same jacks and I have connected the notebook to HiFI (5 speakers) via Y-audio cable like this one:

  • No Sound except through headphones

    I have an Envy Phoenix 810 PC with an Envy 23 Monitor with built in speakers running windows 7. I can test sound on the computer with headphones and they work and I can test the internal speakers on the monitor and they work but I cannot get any sound externally without headphones. I called hp support and really got the run-around. This is the same problem with my home computer same configuration except it is running windows 8.1. Both computers are new but I am frustrated with this issue. HP support had me run system recovery on my computer at home with no success. Another support person reinstalled all the drivers but still there is no sound except with headphones. Do you have any suggestions? I have a jack plugged from monitor to computer.

    Hi,
    Envy Phoenix 810 PC is a series of many models/products, what is yours ? How do you connect them ?
    Regards.

  • Left headphone trouble

    i have an itouch 2g and sometimes when i watch a video on safari the status bar goes sideways and the screens vertical. then, after the video the audio of the video plays again even though im not watching it. then i noticed my left headphone stopped working. it wouldnt work on anything else. so i got another pair and it was working fine but the same thing happened again, any ideas of what is going on?

    Make sure the headphones work fine, check them on other computers etc. I it still doesn't solve the problem check the sound balance in system prefrences, sound, output. I all else fails try runnning the hardware check disk and taking it to an Apple shop

  • No sounds, except through headphones

    HI,
    My macair's peakers dont seem to be working. The sound does play through headphones, usb, and external speakers but can't seem to get the sound to come out normally. I've been through System Preferencer > Sound but everthing seems to be turned on. Help? What else can I try? Thanks

    There no sound coming out of my macair, except through headphones / external speakers. How do I turn the built in speaker
    Still a error there,.....your 'external speakers' are your built in speakers.
    Did you mean to say -- "I have sound thru the headphone jack but NOT the built in/external speakes"
    No speaker sound:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1574
    also:
    Reset SMC
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
