Brand new radio remote - only working in left ear

I capitulated and bought the radio remote today. For 5 minutes it worked fine - now sound only comes out of one ear bud. Its not the bud - cos if I plug them directly into the ipod itself rather than the remote there is no problem.
Anyone else have this problem?

It definitely sounds like just a bad radio remote. Try taking it back and getting it exchanged.

2 new radio remotes not working on 2 new iPods. Any ideas?

I bought 2 new video iPods 3 weeks ago from the Apple store in Florida. (1 black, 1 white - so I assume different batches.) They both worked fine with no problems until I came home and bought a radio remote in the UK.
The remote didn't work at all and seemed to drain the power from the iPod as soon as it was plugged in, the screen faded and the iPod switched off. The only way to get it on again was to unplug the radio and plug in the usb charger for a few seconds. This was the same with both iPods.
Called Apple who thought the remote was faulty so they sent out a new one. New one has just arrived and it does the same thing, again on both iPods.
Apple are sending out yet another remote, but I'm concerned there may be some sort of compatability issue with certain video iPods maybe? Would there be any difference between UK bought and USA bought items that could cause a problem? I don't really see how but it seems strange that it happens to both iPods. Maybe just sheer bad luck to get 2 faulty radios?
iPods are up to date btw - 1.2.1
Anyone any suggestions or had similar problems?

Yip, back in the UK and no, no ipod stores near me, it's all done via the helpline and the PO.
The latest replacement radio arrived today. It works on the black iPod but not on the white one. It drains the power on the white one, as did the others.
I think I may have had 2 issues here....faulty radios but also a faulty iPod maybe.

Have you held the menu and left arrow together for 6 secs ? (I think you have from what you say).
Also try unpowering and restarting AppleTV.

My brand new HP x451dw only prints blank pages

My brand new HP x451dw only prints blank pages. I have never seen a drop of ink on a page since I have had and set up this printer, even during the set-up process.
All indications suggest that I have configured the printer correctly. I have communication from a variety of computers, ipads, etc. and all will get the correct number of pages to come out of the printer, all pages are blank. Likewise with the printer test page.
There has never been a drop of ink on any page since I took this out of the box.
I do not get any error messages. The printer thinks the ink cartridges are full - they are genuine, and they are full.
Any ideas anyone?

If this just happens from these two programs, it's most likely a driver conflict. If typically using an alternate driver will alow you to get around this. To try this, add the printer's que to the Mac. Click the dropdown next to Use and choose a driver that's not for your printer. Typically the best one to try is another Photosmart dirver, but Deskjet drivers will work as well. I would make the instructions a bit more clear, but I don't have access to a 10.6 Mac. Let me know if this works or not.

Headphones only work in one ear...WHY?

I have an ipod touch and the head phones only work in one ear.... Have tried them in my iphone and the headphones work fine
Any ideas
Thanks

- Insert and remove the headphone plug a dozen times or so
- Restore the iPod. Try to factory defaults/new iPod too.
- If still problem then you have a hardware problem. Like the headphone jack is bad.
Apple will only exchange your iPod for this price:

Hearing only with the left ear-phone!!!

I can hear only with the left ear-phone!!! The ear-phones are working normally in others devices. I have already reset the I-Pod but it didn´t work at all. Is there a way to balance the ear-phones or the i-pod must be repaired?
regards.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Have you tried using the iPod with other headphones. Do they work?

HT201320 My ear phones only work on one ear for my iPod touch

When I use my IPod do listen to music my ear phones only works on one ear

- You have verified that the problem is the iPod and not the headphones, right?
- Try inserting/removing the headphone plug a dozen times or so. Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- A reset. Nothing is 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.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. Likely a bad headophone jack.
- Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished for this price. They do not fix your iPod.

My iPod touch 4th gen iOS5.1.1 can't be recognised by my computer and I have tried different cables and usb ports but nothing has worked. The iPod is brand new and was only opened today. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I have just today recieved a brand new iPod Touch 4th generation iPod with the latest update. Everything else on the ipod is working and my computer is able to read the camera fine, but iTunes cannot recognise it - even after restarting and trying different USB ports and cables. There is nothing at all coming up on the device list and iTunes is working as it would if I had no iPod plugged in. This is my first iPod on this computer and I have already tried redownloading iTunes. My computer is a windows XP computer. Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this problem?

Since this is an XP machine, which version of iTunes do you have installed? Is it the latest version?
Have you tried starting iTunes, attach the USB end of the cable, then while holding the home button on the iPod connect the 30-pin connector end of the cable to the iPod...that is the recovery mode but also should make iTunes see the iPod.
If that doesn't work you may need to take the iPod back and have it tested by the genius bar techs to make sure the connector is not bad.

WHY!!! Brand new IPod doesn't work.

I bought a brand new 30 gb Ipod to replace my old Ipod that won't work anymore. Now this one won't work. It is a couple of days old! I installed the software and put some music on the ipod. I have ipod speakers and the ipod works fine on them. It works fine when plugged into the computer. As soon as I take the ipod off a power source it fades until the screen is blank and then it will not respond until I plug it back in. Ive tried everything. Reset the ipod, let the battery drain completely nothing works. The battery says fully charged but it only works plugged into the computer or another power source. Please help! I have restored reset I've done everything. This is just opened from the packaging. Why is ipod equiptment so fragile? If it can't be fixed how do I get a refund because I now have to Ipods that don't work.

And your iPod just doesn't do anything if it's not connected to an external power source? This is interesting. Toggle your Hold switch (on, off, on, off), and follow these reset instructions:
0. Make sure your Hold switch is off.
1. Lay your iPod down on your computer desk.
2. Connect your iPod to your computer (if it's not already).
3. Use your pointer finger from your left hand, and press down on the Menu button.
4. Wait a few seconds.
5. Use your pointer finger from your other hand, and press down on the Select button.
6. Hold them down together until the Apple logo appears.

Brand new MacBook no longer working

I just got my gf a brand new Macbook Pro w/ Retina about 2 weeks ago. She's barely been on it, but it's been working fine during the few times she has been on it.
Starting yesterday, she noticed that she couldn't even boot log in because it would keep bringing her to a screen where it shows a disk, and it would basically freeze on her there. The only few things that she's done since she had it was set up her Apple ID and browse the Internet for the most part. I've installed Microsoft Office and that's the only thing that's been installed thus far.
Here's where I'm at now though. I've tried rebooting the MacBook Pro into OS X Recovery, wiped the HD using Disk Utility, and tried reinstalling Mavericks. Now it's giving me the "Install Failed. OS X could not be installed on your computer" error.
Not sure where to go from here, and I really don't feel up to going to the one and only Apple Store nearby, considering it's always a little aggravating to get in and out of that area.
Some other people who experienced this issue talk about a default installation DVD that came with their MacBook, but I've just bought 2 MacBook Pros and neither one of them came with a DVD. I don't even know why it would, considering there's no DVD drive. So what the ****?

Welcome.
1) Apple Support Communities are user-to-user support forums, not official Apple Support. It's late on a Friday night/early on a Saturday morning in North America, where many of the most dedicated ASC patrons reside. Many are off-line, doing something else, or asleep. If no one viewing the forums reads your post and has any suggestions, then you won't get any answers.
2) You've posted in the OS X Mavericks forum. That's not necessarily the best place for posting a request for help concerning what appears to me to be a hardware (hard drive/SSD) problem on your MacBook Pro Retina. MacBook Pro would be a better choice.
3) Based upon your diagnosis and actions already, I doubt there is anything anyone here can do to fix your computer. Since it's relatively new, use the warranty. If you're in the US, and still within the first 14 days, you can even return the computer for a full refund. You're still covered under the initial 90-days of free phone support too, so try that first, if you're not near an Apple Store. http://www.apple.com/support/contact/ Or click on the Contact Us link at the bottom of any Apple Support Community page. Or just take it to an Apple Store or other Apple-authorized repair facility.
4) I can't speak for everyone here, but I scan the forums for new unanswered posts, in an attempt to offer assistance, so I rarely bother to read the new messages that already have responses, especially multiple responses, unless it's a request where I might have specialized knowledge of the OS, the program, or the specific hardware. Because you've self-replied several times in the same thread, I think some people (far better qualified to offer assistance on your specific issues) here would assume that you've already gotten several replies.

Speakers not working on brand new pavillion dv6. headphones work fine

I've just taken this Pavillion DV6 PC out of the box and the speakers are not working. Windows 7. Sound is fine when I plug headphones in.

Hi,
Try using Recovery Manager to reinstall your Audio Driver ( probably IDT ) - the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the relevant document on the link below.
Recovery Manager - Windows 7
When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio through the speakers.
If you still have no sound, I would return the unit and get it replaced - you shouldn't have to be troubleshooting a brand new machine.

Brand new iMac does not work wirelessly

This is a very strange situation and I don't know how much to be concerned about it.
6 weeks ago I bought the first of two brand new iMacs. We have two old G4s both wired into a Netgear wireless router, plus the printer. The first new iMac when switched on, immediately found the Netgear and has worked perfectly, wirelessly, ever since. As it should.
Less than a week ago I bought the second new iMac, which is identical to the first. I put it on the _same desk_ as the Netgear, therefore a distance of only one foot. Straight out of the box, it worked wirelessly to register itself with Apple.
Since then, it has only worked wirelessly very intermittently, and then very slowly indeed. I was wasting far too much time trying to figure out why the wireless did not work, and eventually wired it into the router too.
I was attempting to set up a network with 2 old G4s wired in, and 2 new iMacs wireless. Now I have 3 wired in and one wireless.
Is there something wrong with the second brand new iMac? Or is there some line I should be pursuing with Netgear?
I have written all the IP addresses down in case anyone responding - and I sure hope SOMEONE responds! - thinks that this may be a clue.
Many thanks in advance to all and any replies.

Update: I'm posting this in case it helps others......
I phoned the software support which comes free for 90 days with a brand new iMac.
The bright young man there instantly knew what the problem was, because he'd seen it all before. There's nothing wrong with the iMac and it has nothing to do with IP addresses.
I have to go into the Netgear configuration screen and Enable MAC filtering. This means I'll give the router the hardware addresses of the two iMacs and it will then allow both of them to communicate wirelessly - but no other devices which might be lurking in the vicinity.
Sounds good to me.

Radio Buttons only work after selecting another field

In my Access 2010 database, I have an option group consisting of 3 radio buttons. If I select the first button I Access will allow me, but if I then want to change my selection to the third button I can only do so if I select another field
before I can make the button change. Now, if I want to change my selection again from the third button to the second button, I must select another field then select the second button.
I just can't figure out what is going on here. Does anyone have any clue or explanation that will help me??? Thank you!

I will add that originally this option group of radio buttons was working perfectly fine. This issue surfaced when I included a tab control to the form and moved all the fields onto the first tab.
It seems that having to select another field before changing a radio selection is limited when using the mouse; however, if I use any of the up/down or left/right arrow keys on the keyboard it will change radio button selections without selecting another field
(as one would expect it to).
Hi Eli,
Probably it has something to do with the focus of the form (first tab) with the radio buttons. Someway that form looses focus when clicking a radio button. By selecting another field the form receives focus again, so you can use the radio buttons again.
You can check it happens in this way.
Imb.
