Stereo Headsets on PC, Work as Mono Headset on Mac

I have a Plantronics headset (with microphone) that I used previously for a PC for Skype, games, music, etc. Now that I have a Mac, I'd like to use it but have a problem. When I plug it in using the 3.5 jacks on the back the stereo sound works great, but the microphone is useless. I can plug it in using the USB adapter that come with it and the microphone works great, but the audio comes in on only one side (left side).
Is there something I can do - download software, a driver, get a different adapter? Or do I have to find a new headset with mic and if so where should I look? I've been looking all over but the feedback on the ones found is not favorable.
Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks.

Well, if they're using Adobe Reader XI then no. If they have an earlier
version then you need to apply a specific right to the file to make
savable, which I'm not sure you can do with Acrobat Standard... Look under

Nokia Stereo Headset WH-205 buttons not working in...

I couldn't get Nokia Stereo Headset WH-205 buttons working in Music player.
Anyone know how to enable the buttons on the headset. I want to use the play/stop/FW/BW buttons on the headset
Many thanks again

You'll be thoroughly thrilled to know that the N900 does not support complex headsets..
I have a pair of BH905 nokia headphones, frequently shown in official N900 videos being used with a cable..
Unfortunately when plugged into the phone using the cable, the buttons do not work.. in fact I don't believe you can use it has a headset via the cable..
Via bluetooth however, they work marginally better (the headphones crash)
Apparently headset support was removed in favor of TV out.. so head sets with multiple buttons just don't work..
I believe the only headsets that actually work as expected are the ones that ship with the n900..
I must admit, for all its faults, this was the one thing that irritated me most about this incredible media rich by peripheral crippled phone!
Bad luck, I'm afraid!

Stereo Headset (HS-47) not working on Nokia 6650 (...

The manual claims the 2.5mm connector on the phone is for a combatible stereo headset. The Nokia US website does not indicate any compatible headset. The manual does show a HS-47 headset as an accessory. I ordered a HS-47 with the result that only one (the right) speaker works. I returned the HS and received a replacement. Same problem. Is there a setting in the phone that enables the second channel? What did AT&T do to this Phone??? First they took the FM radio out, now you can't even listen to music (it is a music phone) on a stereo headset?

I haven't given up yet. Here's what Nokia tech support said:
Although it is not listed on the web address I am sure that the Nokia Hs-49 wired headset will function properly with your Nokia 6650
Armed with that information, I looked up all compatible phones with the HS-49 headset, since my real goal is to find a working adapter for the Nokia 6650 Fold.
The HDA-11 2.5mm to 2.5mm TTY adapter apparently is compatible with the Nokia 6650 Fold. Nokia Tech Support says when queried specifically about this adapter.
"I am pleased to advise you that our Nokia HDA-11 Adapter is compatible with your Nokia 6650 Fold."
My real goal, however, is to be able to use my Sennheiser headphones (3.5mm jack) with this phone.
Googling the HDA-11 has produced this thread on AT&T:
http://forums.wireless.att.com/cng/board/message?board.id=nokia&message.id=48856
Note that the HDA-11 doesn't do the 2.5mm to 3.5mm job directly, it just provides a 2.5mm jack that you can ostensibly plug a 2.5 to 3.5mm adapter into. Since I already have one of these (I bought it when I bought the phone naively thinking that it would allow me to use my headphones) , I've ordered the HDA-11 and will see if the thread listed above also applies to the 6650 Fold.
It's amazing to me that Nokia doesn't provide any way to adapt a standard 3.5mm headphone to this jack.
It's also incredible that they list virtually nothing compatible with the headphone jack on this phone on their website.
Equally frustrating is that Nokia seems to have no interest in fixing any of the above.
Stay tuned to this thread. I'll let y'all know when I get the HDA-11 jack + the 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter lets me use my headphones with this poor excuse for a music phone.

Bluetooth stereo headsets for E61i?

As E61i does not support A2DP there are no Nokia bluetooth stereo headsets available. But are they totally incompatible or just working mono then? Asking because my notebook supports A2DP and I just need ONE headset for both...

Hi,
I think that the adapters are the same. You just need to check that both support stereo sound and look about the same.
And of course, you can always go to a shop and test them. (Which is probably best in any case, since what might be the best for someone might not be best for everyone else.)

6300 not accepting stereo headsets

Hi!
I'm having a problem with my 6300. It won't accept stereo headsets. Stereo headphones or mono headsets are fine, but neither the HS-44/AD-44 or Third Party products with the AD-52 are working, yielding the ever same "Enhancement not supported" after probing shortly with some clicking sounds.
Any Suggestions?
Thanks
Axel

It is probably not compatible if they don't have the Treo model number on their website.
I would suggest using a Palm 2in1 pro headset. Here is a link to the Palm website for the headset. This is designed to work with Palm devices.

HP Digital Stereo Headset Not Detected

Recently my HP Digital Stereo Headset (Model) VT501AA stopped being detected by my HP ENVY m6 Notebook PC after upgrading from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1. I have tried plugging the headset into all four USB ports on the notebook with negative results. The headset is still working as I am able to use it on another netbook PC that I have. Any ideas on how to get this headset working again would be great!

Hi, Boomer73.
I've been experiencing the same problem with my HP Digital Stereo Headset (Model) VT501AA on my HP ENVY TouchSmart m6 Sleekbook. I never used the headset before upgrading to Windows 8.1, but now I can see just there is where the problem lies.
I'd be great if somebody could help us to troubleshoot this issue.

Nokia Stereo Headset HS-45, AD-43 Problems need h...

HI
After purchasing my N95 I noticed that my Nokia Stereo Headset HS-45, AD-43 for some reason don't work. I can hear sound but all buttons wont work . Can someone tell me how to check is this think working or not. Because I just get burnd from http://www.myworldphone.com/
Thank's

I don´t understand how Nokia put this battery in this place, not is very easy of change.
1)- Remove the center pin of the clip. Its a small pin that stay into the clip (axis). Need a small needle or similar. Need make carefully but very hard pressure to extract from this place. Take care when quit that don´t loose the spring.
2)- After remove the pin, under this place, you can found a small phillips screw. Remove it.
3)- After remove the screw, with a very thin needle, you can put a bit of pressure into to extract the silver buttons front.
4)- Now be TOO CAREFULLY. Align the LOCK button to can extract the circuit board. TAKE TOO MUCH CARE BECAUSE IN THE CORNER HAVE TOO SMALL CABLES.
5)- After remove the board you can easy see the big CR-2032 battery. The battery are glued to the frame. Remove. Put a new battery glued (by example with the double surface 3M tape red) and close the unit.
I already make this procedure and my unit work fine again!!!

Hi- just got a 5500. When I plug in the stereo headphone adapter I get the message "Enhancement not supported". How do I get the stereo headset to work?

2. Reset phone to factory settings.
3. Update the firmware.

Stereo Headset for iPhone 3G

I am on my second iPhone 3G (the first one had to be exchanged due to many, many glitches), and I am wondering why in the heck both of my iPhones stereo headsets won't work? It is super frustrating! I am using the headset that came with the phone, and in both instances it seems like the set never plugs in properly to the jack. Is anyone else having this problem? What is the deal? I am so frustrated with this phone!

I just purchased these and although the Sony site says they are perfect for use with the iPhone, there is a major inconvenience: the iPhone apparently doesn't support the skip forward or back or fast forward or review keys. Basically you can only start and stop the audio (and control its volume) from the headset. I contacted Sony and they said that this is a problem with iPhones implementation of the AVRCP Bluetooth protocol (funny that they say the unit works perfectly with the iPhone). I'm using the 3GS, by the way.
On the plus side, the sound is excellent, the telephone controls work just fine, pairing was very easy, and they are quite comfortable. I've decided not to return the headphones and I'm hoping that a future OS release for the iPhone will solve the AVRCP problem (wishful thinking, I guess).

Curve 8330 Stereo Headset Issue.

Hello, I purchases a new Curve 8330 a few days ago and the headset which was included with it (the 3.5mm 4 Pole Stereo Headset) does not work when I play music from the Internet or from the Media. It also doesn't work with any calls. The volume always comes out of the speaker in the phone, not the headphones. Is the headset exclusively for Bluetooth use? My iPod headphones work on my Curve and the Curve headphones work with my iPod, so I'm confused.
I read the previous posts related to headset issues and I couldn't find an answer to this. Thank you!

I'm having a similar problem... my blackberry headset does not work properly. I mean.. it was working when I first got it-- and then all of a sudden, it stopped. It was cold outside, and I never really thought about it again. I was frustrated... and about a week ago I called tech support to inquire...
They siad my blacberry headset jack was most likely damaged, as:
My boyfriend also has a blackberry, and I had the same problem with his out-of-box blackberry headset. (It would work, and then not work unless I pulled it out of the jack slightly).
Regular headphones I use with my ipod worked just fine in my blackberry (curve, by the way).
My headset worked in a sales associate phone when I took it into the store. Granted... my store doesn't fix blackberries-- they just have you send them in.
Luckily... I'm under warently. I wish I weren't so in love with this phone... it seems to be really fragile. My last one was coming apart at the seams in the back around the battery come day 2....
... wait until you try to upgrade your phone's software...... whew. It's rough.
--- ps. it's working plugged in right now and i'm indoors...

I have an original 8Gb iPhone, I bought the stereo headset at Bestbuy but it could not adjust the volume of what I heard from the stereo headset, why is that happen?

The stereo headset is not working properly

Try deleting your hotmail account and then adding it back as an Outlook account instead of "other". It worked for me.

Stereo headset for 6030

Ok. Now here is a dummy question.
What stereo headset is supported by Nokia 6030?
I had tried connecting universal 2.5mm headset to it, but device reported that "Enhancement not supported".Nokia accessory compatibility search give only mono earbud plugs...

That model was made for the Iphone so I am going to imagine it is not compatible.
I know of some wired that have play/pause button on them, however if you are looking for play, pause, vol and call answer you might be better served with a bluetooth headphone.
http://www.motorola.com/staticfiles/Consumers/global/flash_content/microsites/s9hd/index.html This one runs about $50 at places like Amazon.
I already have a bluetooth headset. The problem is when I am in our data center floor I get too much interference over bluetooth and it becomes basically unsuable. The reason why I am looking for a wired stereo headset.
You can try checkingout the V-moda Vibe duo, or take a look at this list of headsets that have all been tested with the DX. I don't think you will find one that covers all the features you want though, might have to compromise on one of them.

8100 Stereo headset

I recently purchased a 8100c from walmart for the at&t network. Now that I finally have some music loaded to the memory card, I've been trying to get a stereo headset to work with it. I don't care about the bluetooth headsets out there, I just want to plug in a standard wired in stereo headset. I have an adapter for the plug and a stereo headset (walkman type, no mic), but music only comes through the right channel. This is driving me nuts! My last phone was a Sony Ericson W600i walkman phone that I purchased solely for the music capabilities and the only reason I really wanted to upgrade to the BB was for the media player (that reviews seem to really like) and the expandible memory that my W600i lacked. Can anyone help me? Thanks

I looked through the forums and the tech support. It seems that my operating system will not support stereo bluetooth. It seems you need BB Device Software 4.2.2 (see http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB13930&sliceId=SAL_Pub...). My 8100c (that I just updated last night) is running on 4.2.1.96 thanks to at&t. I looked through the other carriers and it seems only a few of the european carriers are running anything newer on the 8100c.
Hi....
Did you see this link? Link here
It looks like the newer OS will support this and as you said, the 4.2.2 and newer which is mentioned here.
Have you considered upgrading your OS?

E90 - Recommended Stereo Headset?

Hello folks, im a new owner of the E90.
I was just wondering if there's a decent Stero Headset with music remote to go with the E90. I don't like the standard one because you can't control the music with them.
I love the one with the N81 but unfortunately they don't work using a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter.
Oddly the european website says it's compatilable with the E90 but that is not the case here.
Any suggestions?
A bit off topic. I was surprised that they used the S60.3rd for the E90, i suppose it's to do with cutting down the number of symbian OS to support. Anyway on that same theme why do they not do the same for their accessories ie.
keep to either 2.5 or 3.5mm
Micro or Mini USB
batteries maybe?
Anyway, thanks for reading my first post!
