Bad audio connection

I have a 1st gen ipod shuffle, and it seems that the audio connection is bad. My left ear bud is not working. I even tried different earbuds. if I push the audio connection to one side, I can hear audio on the left side. How can I fix this? I looked all over the discussions and could not find anything on this. I also googled this problem, and it looks like I can order a broken one on ebay and replace the part? Any other Ideas??
This is no longer under warranty.
Thanks!!

Bad audio connection on P-35 Platinum moBo, while capturing analog video?

Before I give up, I'm reaching out to MSI and any persons suffering from out-of-sync audio and video capture issues while using Pinnacle Studio Video editing software. Studio Ultimate HD v.14.
I've posted numerous inquiries to the Pinnacle Support team, the Pinnacle Forum site, as well as the GrassValley (Canopus 110 or 300, I was thinking about trying that) and really never got anywhere.
A few people had mentioned maybe the sync issue could be caused by a bad analog signal and it will drop video or audio frames hence the sync problem. Bringing the video into the capture mode in Studio is fine, but the audio has about a 6 second latency delay, which never recovers.
Could it be the REALTEK HD Sound Audio on my P-35 MoBo, maybe bad? I play music, and everything else coming out of my speakers sound fine, it's just the syncing issues with a PCI device that never locks in both the Video with the audio, because there are two different incoming devices. Analog camera video-out to PCI Video-IN, and audio out from analog camera to onboard, MoBo Realtek audio input.
The PCI-500 capture that originally came with my first Studio product (Studio movieboard 12.1) has NO Audio RCA input, only FireWire, S-video, and Video IN and OUT)
P-35 Platinum MS-7345 Mobo
Windows XP Home Edition SP3
Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz (4 CPUs)
2.4 GHz, 3328 MB Physical RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 8600GT 512 Memory Size
Realtek HD Audio Output Sound
DirectX version: 9.0c
Monitor: Viewsonic VX2035wm Series
WD 500 GB HDD / WD 74GB RAPTOR HDD
Pinnacle PCI-500 Capture card
Nero9
I use the MSI Live Update 4 to update drivers, BIOS, VGA,and Utilities. This system is about four years old. I'm just afraid to flash or update BIOS, thinking I could screw things up.
So I guess my question here is to ask, if maybe the audio input jack on my P-35 Mobo could be defective? Thank you!

Have you try out with a standalone add on sound card? Sometimes, sync problem can be due to processing power or RAM space needed for rendering and merging.

Audio Connections and K8T NEO FISR2

The audio connection on my Wavemaster case has the following connections:
R-OUT
MIC IN
GND
L-OUT
They are all 4 single pin connectors.
The NEO FISR2 has:
AUD-MIC
AUD-GND
AUD-MIC BIAS
AUD-VCC
AUD-FPOUT-R
AUD-RET-R
HP-ON
KEY
AUD-FPOUT-L
AUD-RET-L
Any ideas as to what the proper connections should be? The only one I’m sure on is the ground. I’ve tried a few combinations with no luck. I’m beginning to wonder if I have a bad daughter card on the Wavemaster or something wrong with the board???

Thanks SAB and southmike,
I'll try that, though I think I'm having sound problems in general. I installed an Audigy2 ZS. I'm getting no sound at all. Here is what is really strange. When I disable the Audio 97 option in Bios, Cool and Quite gives me an error saying that a device file can not be found and that cool and quiet is incompatible with my notherboard. When Audio 97 is re-enabled the message goes away
Any ideas?

Does Apple TV and Optical Audio Connection work?

I've read several posts regarding this issue and I'm a little confused. Does the Optical Audio work on the Apple TV (generation 3), because I haven't been able get it to work. I get sound but no stereo/surround sound. Yet, using the same connection out of my Receiver for my PS3 I do get stero/surround sound. Have I missed a setting on the Apple TV?

Is there away I can check the Apple TV Optical Audio connection to see if it's working? The physical connection seems to be fine. Since the connection to A/V Reciever works, as confirmed by my PS3, I can only assume the Apple TV Optical Audio connection is faulty. Other ideas on how I might validate if the Apple TV Optical Audio connection is truly "broken."

Jack-audio-connection-kit doesn't start

Hi,
I need jack-audio-connection-kit Daemon running for use in some other programs, but it seems it dies immediately after starting. See:
[ja@kamahl ~]$ sudo /etc/rc.d/jack-audio-connection-kit start
:: Starting Jack-audio-connection-kit Daemon [DONE]
[ja@kamahl ~]$ ps -e|grep jack
<no output>
I know this is a bit dumb question, but I really have no clue where the problem could be. Do you?

hello,
i'm having the same problem, i can flawlessly run jackd either via CLI and qjackctl, test sound with mplayer, etc.
However, i can't seem to find a solution that let's me do all this as a normal user:

Best audio connection

Best audio connection ?
a) itunes computer via RCA stereo connection to home theatre
b Itunes computer streamed to Apple TV , Apple TV connected via optical cable to home theater
c) this I have not tried ... Itune computer connected directly via HDMi to home theater
Also does the sound-card in the computer make a difference ?
Antoine

I have Fredereih ataxia so my only hobby left is musique and no way I have the dexterity to insert a cd in a tray, I have 400 cd's all ripped at 196kb.
I love my Ipad with Itunes and the remote app to take control of my 5 computers in the house.
My apple tv is ok but I do not have a good internet connection.
In the room where I listen the most music, I have a small EEE laptop.
it is directly connected on a 925 pioneer receiver with 9 speakers (RCA)
Also in this room I have the apple TV connected via the Digital audio cable
Recently (I'm in Canada ) I have been using RDIO (Like Pandora) , they claim sending in 256 kb.
I now notice that here is a difference in Quality for the same file sent it different ways.
played directly from the Pc is not as good as if I use Airplay ?
a) should I resample my 400 cd's at 320kb ?
b) should I buy another Laptop with a good soundcard and a HDMI output.
I would appreciate any recommandation for any laptop under 1000$ ( Only Itune will be o n it.
Regards
Antoine

"Choppy" audio connection

Howdy folks,
I've read the FAQs and the various other threads in this forum and I haven't been able to solve this problem of mine on my own. I apologise if I have missed something!
My girlfriend and I are trying to use an audio connection in iChat. Connecting to one another is not a problem, and the audio is typically crystal-clear and uninterrupted *at first*. Soon, however, it will cut out on my side (her side is more or less fine). Sometimes very briefly, sometimes for a second or two. Often it will happen once and be fine for ten seconds or so (never much longer than that, though); other times it will happen in rapid succession. The net effect is that it is difficult to carry a conversation with these interruptions. I'm hoping, however, that there is something I can do. Any ideas?
We are both running the version of iChat that came with Tiger. We also both have PowerBook G4s. My inet connection is to a university network via ethernet. My download and upload rates are, respectively: approximately 200 KB/sec and app. 45 KB/sec. My girlfriends inet connection is wireless with a download rate of app. 320 KB/sec and upload rate of app. 125 KB/sec.
Thanks for your help!
Charles Dobson

Hello, Charles
My hightest recommendation: You should upgrade to 10.4.2. It corrects several issues (including iChat AV issues) that were problems in the previous versions of Tiger.
Try this and any other relevant suggestions from Help for iChat AV 3 Problems.
The testing and tutorial suggestions in Using iSight with iChat AV might also give you some trouble shooting ideas if you are still having difficulty after implementing the above suggestions.
Also, being at a university, you might try at different times of day to see whether busy network traffic is causing problems for you at certain times.
If necessary, you can even take your PowerBook to an off-campus network to help determine whether the problem is in your Mac no matter which network you use to connect.

ERROR - BAD DUPLEX CONNECTION - HP 5000N

After switching our HP5000N laserject printer off and then back on, we are now getting the error "BAD DUPLX CONNECTION"
The problem is that we do not have a duplex unit. Never have had, never will have.
Therefore, clearly the printer is picking up a problem incorrectly.
Does any clever guru type person out there know what I can do to fix this situation?
Any further information you feel i may need to provide, please don't hesitate to ask.
Thanks in advance.
Greg.

How did you replave the duplex belt? How to deassemble the backside of a officejet and click the new belt on? I can't see nor do it y self

Bad network connection - enhance timeout

Hello,
if I using LC Server via proxy, for some larger files the LC Workbench/Designer gives me an "Can't read the ressource. Could be due invalid permissions, or a bad network connection." ca. 2 sec (!!!) after double click an that ressource.
The workbench Log tells me:

Is it possible to change timeout values or other to correct this misbehaviour?
Regards, Leo

All of my songs were erased (i'm not really sure why it just happened while i was charging it. It said something about factory settings (?)) and it said to restore it to fix the problem. When i press restore it says the network connection has timed out. I'm sure everything is connected also. i have no idea what to do to fix it and i cant sync my songs back on till i do! my iPod is useless at the moment.
do you think that this problem similar to yours?

SuperDrive makes bad audio CD

My MBP is a 15" Core2 2.33GHz with Matshita UJ-875D drive, and it's been making bad audio CDs.
I'm using iTunes to make my CDs, and the CDs always play fine on my MBP. But as soon as I take those discs to my car or my older computers, they start to make static noises or skip. Usually the first few tracks would be fine, then start to get some noise on 5th track or so, then they skip like crazy past 10th track.
I take the same batch of CD-R and use my trusty old PB 12" 1.5GHz to burn the same music, and the CD worked great.
I'm hoping this is just a bad media issue (Fuji Film discs by the way), but seeing how my PB was not picky at all about blank discs I'm starting to wonder. Any thoughts or similar experiences?

From what i recall in these forums, the superdrive is really picky about CD models. Im using HP CD-R and they work fine. Its probably the type of CD you're using. And another way to prevent this is to not touch your computer at all while it burns, back in the old old old old old old old old old oldo ldo ld old days, remember when we had to basically not move the entire house we were in and let the burning soak up all the CPU% to get a good burn? XD. Id try a differant type of CD, just trade off some with someone else and test them.

RE: Bluetooth Audio Connections Real or Imagined?

On New Yew Year's Eve I offered to do a French Quarter music mix to match the cuisine. My idea was to run Rhapsody play lists thru my iPhone 4s into a Miccus BlueBridge adapter which has a micro out which I ran a audio "RCA" y-cable into the Aux inputs of my friends audio system. I also wanted to use my Jawbone Jambox speaker to play in the kitchen. It seems that the process was either or. When the second Bluetooth device was connected (it didn't matter which) it cancelled out the first. Hmmmm. Then ran the micro to RCA from the iPhone's headphone jack (micro) and that cancelled out the bluetooth streaming. Ideally it would be tre cool to stream to a couple of bluetooth devices and/or a bluetooth stream and audio connect. Is this doable? Here are links to the equipment:

DLD28 We absolutly understand the importance of hands free driving! Since the update, your phone will function better but there may be a few quirks at first. Try to unpair the devices and pwer off the phone. Next, remove the sim then reinstall and retest.
