Airport only plays from left speaker

Just got the Airport Express to hook up to me receiver so i can play music wirelessly from my iphone 5. I hooked it up the same way i used to hook up my phone to the receiver and its only playing out of the left speakers. Why? When i hook up my phone it plays out of all the speakers. I also tried hooking the iphones headphones into the airport and it only plays out of one speaker. For $100 i figured it would play out of all the speakers.

To Start with, check in sound balance...to do that...
Go to control panel -> Sound -> Double Click on Speakers -> Levels -> Balance...

Mono audio playing from left speaker only

For websites who have mono recorded (single channel) podcasts, audio in firefox will only play from left speaker instead of picking center channel.
If audio is downloaded and played on seprate dedicated player it defaults to center or if same site is played in IE also defaults to center.
Stereo recorded podcasts have no issue.

I assume that not a Flash player is used in this case, but that this is an issue with the (built-in) HTML5 media player and the audio tag is used.
Is that correct?
The Flash player should show the Flash context menu if you right-click the player area.

My dvd only plays the left speaker of my song...

Hello everyone. I recently exported onto a dvd from adobe premiere 2.0 that included a song that i had recorded in mp3 format.
In the song, some of the instruments come out of the left speaker, and some come out of the right. When i play this video on a standard dvd player through a television, the mp3 only plays the audio that is supposed to come out of the left speaker, but it plays it through both speakers. This renders many of the instruments unhearable.
When i play it through a computer, though, with a dvd decoder, it plays everything perfectly.
What should I do?

MP3's are very often problematic. First, I would check your source file in G-Spot, to see what it reports, 2-channel, or 1-channel.
Personally, I always convert ALL MP3's to PCM/WAV and Import those. This eliminates the issues, and Audition (or the freeware, Audacity) can do this easily. The only exception will be tiny SFX files, and most are mono anyway. Where did your MP3 come from?
Good luck, and let us know how it goes,

Music only plays from left ear

Recently my ipod has only been playing music/sound from movies out of only the left ear from any pair of headphones. I initially thought it was the headphones so naturally tried another pair but it's not the case.
Whilst on holiday last week I was experimenting and found that if I really push the headphones into the socket then music plays from both. Another option was that if the headphones weren't plugged in all the way (about half way) then music plays from both ears.
Is there a solution to this, or is it a hardware problem with the ipod?

yes, it is a hardware issue i.e. bad contact
Consider setting up a mail-in repair for your iPod http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
Or visit your local Apple Retail Store http://www.apple.com/retail/
In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ or ifixit at your own risk

Sound only coming from left speaker.

I recorded live music last night from a soundboard in a music hall. The new belkin tunetalk pro on my ipod g5 worked really well and was easy to use. Problem is I did not have the right kinda hookups. I need two 1/4 plugs that converted to one 1/8 mini jack. so i had one 1/4 to 1/8 mini and they gave me a great sounding feed but it's only on the left as in the left ear. i downloaded to to itunes. actually it did it as soon as i pluged the ipod in. i did nothing. the sound guys said i should be able to split to right and left with something like garageband software. i impoted into GB and now i still have the great sound coming out of my left speaker and nothing on the right unless i choose mono 1 or mono 2.
my question is how do i split this and make the recording come out of both speakers? the file in garageband has 2 wave zigzag lines. one on top of the other. i'm sure there's a way but so far i've not found an easy fix on apple garageband support groups but i've not asked either. tonight i will have the right connections so will see how well a rock show records. last nights was an acoustic show with a guitar and vocal mic

You can't really make a stereo file from a mono recording.
Stereo needs two mic/2 channels in the recording phase. The best you can do is set the track to mono so it comes from both speakers, or create fake stereo by using two tracks and offsetting one of them slightly and panning each track to the side some. It won't be stereo, there will be no center, just Left and right

Sound only playing from left

I thought my earbuds were broken because no sound was coming from the right side -- but now I realize that no sound comes from one of the speakers on my iphone 4 itself, either -- any advice on how to fix this?

The earbuds being busted is quite possible. I tried my Sony Ericcson X10's set of speaker earphones with my iPhone 4 when I upgraded. The things were decent with calls, but wouldn't play the main voice on iPod songs, just the background music. I changed to another set of speaker earphones and it worked fine.

Only sound from left with sum stack

Hello! When I create a sum stack this happens (only sound from left speaker:
But I want it to look like this:
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 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.

Mackbook Pro 17 inch loud hissing from left speaker

Has anyone had a problem with 17 Inch Macbook Pro, loud hissing from left speaker after a full SMC reset?
It only makes the hissing sound when a audio clip or system sound is in progress.
Cheers
MC

Fixed.
Whilst playing around with the balance control, I discovered left was right and right was left.
Opened the top cover, unplugged flipped over and replugged the speaker plug on the left board (it looks like it's a one way plug but it still allows it to be plugged in the wrong way).
Working properly now.
Hope this helps someone out there.
Cheers

New iPhone only plays from one headphone.

I got my iPhone 5 today and music only plays from the right headphone, no matter what headset I use. This also happened with my iPhone 4 so I thought the problem would be gone with the new phone. So I am thinking it might be a setting or something, but I can't figure out how to change it. Thanks for any help!

Forgive what may be a dumb question in my part, but you have confirmed that the headphones are fully plugged in? I haven't had hands on an iPhone 5 to check, but with most other Apple devices, the headphones take a pretty firm push to get them fully seated. There's normally a light "snap" that can be felt when they're completely plugged in.
Hope that helps.

My ipod will only play from 1 heandphone. whats wrong?

my ipod touch only plays from 1 headphone and iv'e bought 3 different pair. it'll only play if i do a certain thing with the cord. idk what to do. help me !!!

Hi,
This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802#acoustic provides tips that will resolve most hardware issues. One of the tips it provides is checking the iPhone's headphone jack for debris. You can try connecting and disconnecting the headphones a few times to remove lint or anything else that might be down there.
If the issue persists with some headphones but not others, the headphones with the issue will need service. You can setup service for the Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic online here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do
