Ear pods

When testing out my ear pods with my iPhone 5, i notice that the right side seems to short out. I can turn the plug into the phone a little and the sound will go in and out. It also makes a cracking noise in the headphones.
Anyone else having this issue?

Having the same issue with my iPhone 4 (brand new) - if I hold the plug in and to the left it plays in both ears, otherwise just the left ear. Headphones work perfect in my iPad.

  • Button not working on ear pods

    I bought a new pair of Apple Ear Pods four months ago, and they have been great. Then, for no apparent reason, the button stopped working. The audio is perfect, but I can't use the button to play/pause, change volume, and the microphone is also not working. Besides that, they look brand new, but although the button clicks, my phone doesn't recieve the input. I also tried it with another iPhone and an iPad. I hadn't interacted with them in any way between the time I last used the button successfully. Does anyone know what could have caused this, or if it's possible to fix?

    Why don't you bring them in to Apple for them to look at?  If there's a manufacturing defect, they'll likely be replaced.

  • Has apple announced or launched an fix for losing the audio with ear pods plugged after sleeping the computer??????

    Does any 1 has the fix to the audio problem encountered Macbook air 2013 after updating to Mevricks? I have updated my computer with 10.9.1, but still no change, the computer looses volume when I sleep it with ear pods on. The volume returns only after reebooting.Does apple even know about this problem??? Is there any solution to this problem in near future??? It is quite frustrating now.

    yes I know about the issue, yes it is known
    No there is no resolution yet, be patient
    Don't sleep your Air with phones attached, ....very easy
    peace

  • My right ear pod is not making as much noise as the left ear pod

    With no damage at all to the head phones, one of the ear pieces is not working as good as the other. In this case left is louder than right. Before this pair of ear pods I had the same issue with the pair before, except that time, it was my left not making as much noise. I'm sure it's in properly and there is no damage, but why has the headphone gotten worse!?

    connect the headset to a computer or another device which have a mini jack connector like the iphone
    to see if the issue is there too
    and or connect another mini jack headset (most headsets are) to the phone
    one or both of these 2 things should show you if your headset or your phone is broken

  • My ear pods are not working.

    Volume doesnt work. Answer button doesnt work. I've tried with 2 different ears pods. Same problem. It has worked before. Plz Help

    Your Apple Earpods are covered under the same warranty as your iPhone 5, so I would recommend for you take them to your local Apple Store (might want to bring your phone as well so they can check your warranty) and have the Geniuses there examine and exchange them.

  • IPod touch audio issue: why do I only get sound from one channel in my ear-pods?

    After upgrading my brand new iPod touch 5th generation to IOS 6.1.2 I only get sound from the right channel of my ear-pods.
    I did not have this issue with IOS 6.1.1. Is this a problem derived from new IOS? Any idea on how to solve it?
    Appreciate your help!

    Have you tried other headphones? If you confirmned it is an iPod problem:
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    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. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
    Apple - iPod Repair price                  
    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

  • HT3458 Why don't they allow the apple ear pods to work with this shuffle?

    I have a third gen iPod shuffle that I love, but the old apple earphones kill my ears. They should update either the iPod or the ear pods to work together.

    Have you ever found a product that always works and never fails for anyone? I sure haven't. Things always break for various reasons and usually it isn't the manufacturer's fault. I can see why you are upset, I'm not faulting you for that, but the bulk of ipods out there work fine, otherwise apple would not still be making them nor would people buy them.

  • Iphone 5 ear pods

    My iPhone5 was used to test a new speaker I bought today, since then it only plays the left side of my ear pod, I have tried  lots of different, and the problem still persists. what is the problem ?
    The second issue i have is that the home button makes a ughy clicking noise as i try to use it.

    First, try a reset: Hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.

    No you cannot, the iPhone 4S came with regular earphones. You could buy a pair of earpods seperately, though.
