Audio only coming out center speaker

I just created a timeline in fcp using stereo tracks for the audio. I then exported QT and used Idvd to burn
When I play the DVD the menu plays out audio in all speakers including base,but when the movie plays
It only comes out the center speaker, any ideas why?

Sounds like your audio is primarily the same in both Left & Right channels, and your receiver is set to decode as Dolby Pro Logic, which takes all equal properties from the LR and steers them to the Center.

Audio only coming out of left side of headphones

Hey all, I got my Ipod Video 8 months ago. Everything was perfect until recently. One day, I turned on my Ipod and sound was only coming out of the left side of the headphones. I thought it was the headphones, so I tried the headphones on a computer. And it was fine on the computer. I tried 3 different sets of headphones on my Ipod and still the same problem, the sound only comes out of the left side. If I move the jack around, sometimes sound will come out of the right side, but only briefly. Any suggestions on what I can do?

Audio only coming out one side of headphone port - Retina MBP

I bought a retina MBP a few months ago, and suddenly the headphone port only outputs to the right side. It does it with anything I plug in to it, so it's definitely not the speakers/headphones. It's also not the balance slider in the system preferences > sound menu.
Does this mean it's a hardware problem? I'd hate to have to send it in for repair, but this is driving me crazy.
Thanks for any help!
edit: I've also already reset the SMC to no avail.

System Preferences > Accessibility > Sound
Make sure that "Play stereo as mono" is not enabled.
Headphone jack fits in snug in the port?
Tried resetting PRAM?
If these steps do not help, you may have to contact Apple.
Best.

There's only one speaker, the other is a microphone.

Should my iPhone 1 (iOS 3.1.3) with Bluetooth 2.0 (Handset HSP?) work with wireless earbuds with BT 4.0 and the Headset (and Handsfree, A2DP, AVRCP) protocol? They pair and connect; status bar looks good. But audio always comes out the speaker. Thx.

Should my iPhone 1 (iOS 3.1.3) with Bluetooth 2.0 (Handset HSP?) work with wireless earbuds with BT 4.0 and the Headset (and Handsfree, A2DP, AVRCP) protocol? They pair and connect as expected (with a PIN); status bar looks good and shows Bluetooth active, and I even see the iPhone displays the battery levels of the wireless earbuds. But audio always comes out the speaker. (If I plug in wired headphones into the headphone jack then audio comes into the wired headphones, as expected.) I have rebooted the iPhone; I have had it forget about the wireless earbuds, and repaired and reconnected; I have reset all network settings. Thx in advance.
PS: I understand that more recent versions of iOS have a way to choose where audio output goes (speaker, headphone jack, Bluetooth device). Does this older version of iOS? I could not find an option or setting.

I've noticed this lately as well, with my iPhone 4. I couldn't confidently pin it directly on any particular iOS update, but my iPhone used to automatically connect up via Bluetooth with my Prius's handsfree feature, and now it doesn't. I work with a CE-based device at my job, with Bluetooth capability, and I used to test out that feature by having it discover my iPhone. This no longer works either.
What I have found (not really a solution, but it does work and may be a clue for Apple) is that if I simply go to the Settings app then the General -> Bluetooth screen and let it sit there, it will pair right up with my car within a few seconds. Bluetooth is always on, and always says "Now Discoverable" at the bottom of the settings screen.

Audio only comes out of the right head phone on my iPhone 4?

I've just bought an iPhone 4 16GB off a family friend and the phone was in fully working order, I've seen it and used it. It's been restored back to factory default and now audio only comes out of 1 head phone through the audio jack? I've checked inside the jack for anything in there and I've used 4-5 pairs of head phones I know are working having used them in other devices. I've used this phone in the past with the head phones so I know it does work. I've tried doing a reset, same problem still occurs. Any idea's at all?

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPhone for a refurbished one for:
iPhone model

There are third-party places that will replae the jack for less. Here is one.

Why is does audio only come out of the left speaker when I press the latency button....?!?!

Hello
I have a small problem which I hope someone can advise me on ......
Everytine I press the Latecny button on Logic 9 the audio will stop coming out of the LEFT and RIGHT speakers and only come out of the LEFT speaker ?
Audio sent out of DAW --------> Mixng Deck ------> back into Soundcard via SPDIF (digital) on inputs 9/10
I am sening al my sounds out of the computer to be summed on a mixing decks and then the 2 channles of audio from the deck is coming back into my soundcard as an digital a signle on INPUTS 9/10.
Can anyone please advise ..........!?!

Might want to read on what Low Latency mode does + why and when you should use it.
It's basically only used in realtime monitorinr when recording and/or when recording softsynths.
By reading the docs you should be able to figure out why the right side is being muted.
http://documentation.apple.com/en/logicpro/usermanual/index.html#chapter=41%26se ction=2%26tasks=true
Be sure software monitoring is Off when recording the summed input.

Audio only playing out of Right Speaker when using 30pin-Lightning Adapter?

Hi There-
I have a Mini Cooper and often use its provided cable (connects via USB and Aux cord into 30pin for older gen iPhones/iPods, etc) to play music. However, with the purchase of my new iPhone 5 I bought the 30pin to Lightning adapter, and when I plug in my phone sound ONLY seems to be coming out of the Right speaker. Take off the adapter to use an older iPhone and both speakers play music. I don't know where the problem lies, I purchased both the phone and the adapter straight from the apple store...
Thanks for any help!

Since the cable works with your old iPhone, it's in the phone or the adapter. Take both to the Apple store, I'm sure they have some sort of dock they can plug it into to reproduce the issue - then they can try a different adapter with your phone, and a different phone with your adapter, to see where the problem is.

Embedding an imovie video (with audio) in Keynote on Ipad, audio only comes out on headphones not external speaker?

When using imovie on ipad to embed music onto ipad keynote slide, sound does not come out external speaker, only through the earbud jack? Is there a setting that will allow for sound through the external speaker?

Two possibilities I can think of. MAke sure that the side button on your ipad is set to screen lock & not mute. If it is set to mute, you'll need to slide it to unmute it before the speaker will work. Otherwise, it sounds like some kind of software glitch. I'd do a reset (I think you hold down the power button & the button on the top for like 10 seconds, until you get the screen asking if you want to turn your ipad off. Follow through, give it a few seconds, then restart it.

Sound only coming out of 1 speaker at startup

I recently bought an Maudio to replace my x-fi, and the sound is great, and everything works fine, except when I start up, sound only comes out of 1 speaker. It isn't always the left or right, it changes. When I go into mixer and change the volume either up or down, sound returns to the missing speaker. Has anyone else had a similar problem?

See thread.
Worked around by running amixer to change volume levels in /etc/rc.local, IIRC.

FCP audio only plays through computer speaker?

I can not get FCP to play out through my audio interface for some reason. FCP only plays out of my iMac internal speaker. All other computer sounds are coming through the audio interface selected in system preferences (M-164UF Tascam Mixing board) except FCP. What am I doing wrong?

Yup, there it is. I looked in five different places, but forgot to look here. That's the danger of being away from using FCP for a few months. You forget where all the buttons are. Thanks for answering my embarassingly dumb question.

Sound only coming from one speaker

My son had an iPod Touch 4. One day, one channel stopped working. I hooked his earbuds up to my iPhone and both speakers worked. We hooked different earbuds up to his iPod Touch 4 and only one speaker played so we figured the iPod jack had gone bad.
Today, he won a brand new iPod Touch 5 from a contest at our church. He sets everything up, syncs up with iCloud and only one speaker is working. This is using the brand new earbuds that came with the iPod Touch 5. I call Target, they say to come in to exchange it. We return the iTouch 5 and get another brand new one.
On the way home, he begins to setup the iTouch 5 and when he slid the unlock slider, he heard the "click" in both earbuds so we thought everything was great. We get home, he syncs up with iCloud and low and behold, only one earbud is working. I plug my Klipsch earbuds into the new iTouch 5 and only one earbud is working.
What in the heck is going on? Apparently this has nothing to do with his device, but something within iCloud or iTunes? Even stranger thing is it only plays one speaker even with Youtube, Video Chat and Netflix.
I can "barely" hear music coming out of the speaker that is not working. It's almost like the audio is panned or faded to one channel.
Any suggestions? What would cause one audio channel to stop working when he syncs up to his account?
Thanks in advance for your help.

You are pushing the headphones all the way in, or you have a case that is preventing you from doing so. The plastic on the headset jack should be flush with the body of the Touch.

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

Is there any way to keep the music playing through the headphones connected through the headphone jack, while also playing the music through a bluetooth device, such as speakers - so the audio is coming out of both devices simultaneously?

When I connect my bluetooth speakers, the sound stops coming out of the headphones (connected via the hardwire jack), and then comes back when I turn off the bluetooth speakers. I would like to have audio coming out of both...
Anyone?

Thanks Kiwi. It doesn't make sense to me though, as that would seem to be only a simple change in the operating system, not a hardware 'necessity'.

Audio only coming through one ear

Hi, my fifth generation iPod only has audio coming through one ear, and I know that this is an issue with the audio port, and the contact points wearing out. I know it is not my headphones, but is there any way to clean the points, or to replace the audio port without buying a whole new iPod?

I believe I have the same problem with you guys but managed to get it solved.
Firstly, I noticed the sound only came out from Right side of the headphone. Moreover, it only came out at maximum level which I cannot turn volume down. When I tried, I could only either have maximum level volume or mute (when turn volume lower to minimum).
I tried taking the jack out half way.. and I had sound for both ears but still at max level.
Then I searched here and found the suggestion for basic steps of 5R.. Reset, Retry, Reinstall, Restore.. (only remember 4 out of 5 here)
Anyway, after my first try with 'Reset' -
1) toggle 'hold' button to on and off position then
2) hold both 'select' button and 'menu' button down at the same time for 6-10seconds.
After I turned my ipod on again, I have volume in both ears and I can certainly adjust volume level now. This solves the problem for me.
The only issue now is that I think I have louder volume on left ear than the right one this time but only slightly.
Hope this works for you guys.
