Earphone input issue,left side dead

My left side audio just died on me.
Inserting the earphone only delivers right-side audio, the left side is dead! Tried various ear and head phones..same. Right side good..left side no sound. I can however ease it in about half way to get both sides to work, (the plug being a bit loose with this config).
Is the input broken? Anything I can do on my end? Thanks.

Nothing you can really do. You've tried different headsets just to see if the original ones were broken.
Sounds as though you'll need to send it in for repair.

Why is the usb input on the left side ?

for the love of god, what exactly stood behind the design of putting the usb input on the left side of the laptop ?
for right handed plugging in their mouse, the cord has to go all the way around to reach the right side.

There is a port next to the modem connection on the back right side. You knew that. wow no big deal. I thought there were too few USB ports but there are plenty. How many usb devices does one need to plug in simultaneously?

There is a small white light in the retina display on my ipad 3. Is this a dead pixel/light leak and how do I fix it? (Located at the bottom left side between home button and left corner)

My iPhone 3GS has dead spots on the left side of the screen, does anyone know how this problem has started or how I can fix this?

Over the past couple of months, my iPhone 3GS has had dead spots on the left side of the screen, preventing me from using the r, d and x keys, the number 4 and the semi colon and comma keys. Does anybody have any ideas on why this has happened or any ideas that I'll be able to fix this problem?
Just a note; I can't put my phone to sleep or turn off as my lock button isn't working, so I'm using the AssistiveTouch settings.
Thanks.

This has no impact on the ability to purchase a new iPhone... it simply means that the newer one will not be at a fully subsidized price.
You could always take it to Apple and do an Out of Warranty exchange (I'm assuming the device is out of warranty) for $149 US.

My left side of my earphones decided not to work

The left side of my apple earphones with remote and mic suddenly stopped working. I found out that if i tilt the wire at a certain angle, it works. If i dont, no sound comes out of it. I reside in Singapore

Normally it just happends from wear and tear and it's happend to most of my headphones and then the headphone actually starts to fall apart so i have given up on buying them as they break so easily, instead I get them for free from

here's the link if you are interested but you can first check the headphone socket to see if there is anything blocking the jack before buying/getting some new headphones.

Late2012, RMBP. Only left side of earphone works.

When I plug in my earphone (iphone 5 earphone), only left side works, and Im sure this is a good earphone.
I used to adjust the banlance, and sometimes this works that both sides will work after my manual adjustment. However, now, this way wont fix the problem.
What's the problem here?

My earphones only work on the left side on Macbook Air (2012)

I don't remember if it wasn't working from before, I just bought a new Macbook Air; today, I plugged in my earphones and only the left side was working (left bud). It also works this way with my headphones and Apple Earbuds. Any ideas?

It could be that they're faulty, or myabe even your PC. Have you tried another pair of headphones on the PC to see if it's the PC that's faulty instead of the headphones?

X201 - Random standby, blank/bright screen and left side USB issue

I have a bunch of issues with my X201 that slowly developed over the past months. The motherboard had been replaced once due to USB/standby issues and worked fine for a few months, but now it seems to be returning again.
I'm not sure if this is again a motherboard issue or something else altogether. In rough sequence of when the faults started appearing.
Initial symptoms: the left side yellow USB ports will stop working after returning from standby/hibernation. Windows 7 gives a USB device error and basically everything connected to that same USB controller won't work. Sometimes it recovers by itself after a few more standby/wake cycles, sometimes if I disable/enable the USB controller in Device Manager but often nothing works except a shutdown and cold boot.
Then the screen started going extra bright or more accurate high gamma white-out when returning from standby. Everything becomes very whitish/bright but slowly will settle down to normal within 30 seconds or so.
I could live with all these niggling small issues, but recently my X201 started going crazy with random drops into STANDBY. I know there is a thread about random shutdown but that isn't the issue here.
Just out of the blue, connected to power with 100% battery, the X201 will go into standby. Sometimes it will wake almost immediately by itself, then go back into standby again. Other times, I have to hit the Fn button to wake it, but frequently it will just go right back to standby again. The number of times this happen before it stabilized again is random. Reboot may or may not fix it the issue. Like a hiccup, it starts without reason and stops without reason, but makes it extremely annoying and impossible to work when it does.
The worst part is that often when returning from standby, the screen may go blank, even the backlight is off. Sometimes this happen immediately on return, but sometimes it takes a few seconds before the screen dies. During the blank screen, the system is responsive. I could type my login password blind and see hard disk activity and hear the login music.
According to the Windows event log, this appears to be triggered by some phantom power button or Lid close event.
Would anybody have a conclusive idea of what might be the root cause of these problems?
I can't really have a downtime without my laptop for days sending it for repairs and hope to be able to isolate the part so that I can just call in on parts warranty and get it fixed in a few hours.

I had a similar problem with my X201 after hibernation due to no AC power and battery depletion.
I was loathe to replace the motherboard.
Then one day I tried this. Went into BIOS. Disabled, then enabled various ports under supervisor password control. (I heard don't use extended password which encrypts. use the simple 8 character one).
I had disabled the usb card reader all usb ports. I had taken off the hard drive password I had put on earlier.
Then after a power off cycle. I enabled the usb card reader and all the usb ports again.
Then like some miracle windows detected the SD card reader and re-installed the usb root hub drivers at the same time. For some reason it seems the SD card reader is tied to the usb root hub. Maybe it's already part of it already.
Then all the ports were working again. I was so relieved that I didn' have to call Lenovo to replace my MB. I didn't even have to update by flashing the BIOS.
It's all ok now. I like the X201 and the keyboard. From what i've seen of the X220 they've abandoned the traditional 90's style keyboard this time. I should have bought an extra X201 when Lenovo put it on special pricing bakc in 2011. Now they are completely gone from Lenovo and the prices on the major resellers of Lenovo are way too high for all the Lenovo notebooks too.

Screen Issues - Scratch on LCD / Discolored Aluminum on left side

I purchased my MBP July 2008 ... I have handled this laptop with kid gloves. I've been seeing a few things that concern me as of lately. First, I have the matte screen which is developing a horizontal scratch (looks like from the sharp edge next to the space bar). As if that isn't annoying enough, on the left side of the screen, the aluminum between the LCD and the edge of the screen is starting to discolor in spots causing it to turn white. Originally, I thought that there was something on it, but this doesn't come off...It is as if the finish is damaged. What gives?
I spent a fortune on this computer and am shocked to start seeing things like this given how well it is cared for. I have Googled and common reasons for the scratch is applying pressure to the screen which doesn't fit my situation. The scratch on the screen is a little ridiculous as it seems to be getting worse with time.
Is this something Apple will do anything about?
Thanks in advance!

Okay...Now I need to give an update and ask again for help from the experts. At the same time I discovered my screen getting a horizonal scratch, my iSight camera quit working. I took it in to the Apple Store and they agreed to replace the screen as the hardware was faulty (broken camera) and sold me a piece of soft material to put between my screen and keyboard to prevent scratching after they replace the screen. I couldn't get it repaired the weekend I took it in due to their scheduling and the fact I live 100 miles away from the store. So they told me to bring it back to any Apple Store when it was convenient to do so and they would be glad to replace my screen as agreed upon. They noted the situation and I was set.
In December, I finally made time to have the computer screen replaced. Needless to say the tech who worked on it was either in a hurry or didn't care. Long story short, they gave me the last display assembly in stock which was warped and they didn't get the computer back together correctly because there is a gap on the rear of the display assembly on the left side where there shouldn't be one. Despite the mediocre repair, my iSight camera worked and they told me bring it to any Apple Store within 6 months and they would replace the screen again to make me "happy." This is after an employee at the Apple Store tried to convince me that my warped display was normal because of unavoidable manufacturing imperfections. My last display sat flat, so that excuse didn't fly. If I owned a Dell, that might be a different story, but I paid over $2000 for a machine and I expect better. Fast forward to tonight...I was going to get a iChat session rolling only to come to find that my iSight went out again (assuming another hardware failure). I know the screen is supposed to get replaced again down the road because of the poor repair job on the first go around, but how many hardware failures do I need before things work and continue to work?!? I cannot afford to drive 100 miles down to the Apple Store every 3 months because something else is broke. This is the second time the iSight went out for no apparent reason. What is the lemon law for computers?
I know I sound like a disgruntled Apple customer, but let me assure you that I'm venting. I love my MBP, but am disappointed with this situation and am seeking advice what to do about it.
I thought about trying to get my computer repaired at a local Apple Authorized Service Center where they order the part and fix it when the part comes in. I've seen their work for a keyboard replacement on a family members computer and it appears they do good work. Are there any downsides to having an Apple Authorized Service Center replace my screen for the second time?
Thanks in advance for any advice or insight you could shed on the current situation.

Audio input issue - No stereo... Right channel only.

Hi
First to thank you for taking the time to read and consider this if you do - any help in this would be hugely appreciated
Ok - I'll try to make this as concise as poss but it needs some explanation:
I'm home-recording hobbyist musician. One of the things I would very much like to use the iMac for is to back up old four-track tape recordings, recording them as wav or mp3 as the case maybe and saving them to my hdd. Easy right? Apparently not, so far... let me explain:
On the tape recorder there is only an RCA stereo out (red and white, left and right). The very first thing I did when I got the iMac was download Audacity (the audio software), hooked up a stereo lead to the RCA outs on the tape recorder, and ran it into the line-in port on the iMac, using the 1/8" jack.
Now, sound came in, but only the right channel. The left channel was completely dead (ie when I panned the audio to the left, or if there was a sound in the mix that was only in the left channel, it was absent).
Since then I've bought Logic Pro and and an audio interface and this presents the EXACT same problem... Nothing in the left channel. (please note, I am aware you can "fake" stereo by setting a channel-strip to "mono" so that there is sound on both sides, but get this - it only splits the right channel in two - so you still don't have the left channel or genuine stereo signal frustratingly)
It should be noted that stereo sound is not a general problem on the system. Stereo output is perfect (ie on itunes, cds, online etc - or if I'm using softsynths in Logic for instance) it is solely an AUDIO INPUT issue.
Needless to say I've explored all options in sys prefs to no avail.
It should also be noted that I have also tested the actual output of the tape recorder and used the same leads to line into a home stereo system no problems.
Does anyone have any idea what I'm talking about or how this could be resolved? I am even open to suggestions for peripheral equipment, sofware additions etc - any questions at all, just ask.
Thanks again, any input would be welcome.
EDIT: I also posted this in the general iMac forum. Posting here for people w specific audio knowledge thanks!

Pancenter, thanks once again.
Sorry about delay replying - have had an internet outage here just to add to my woes haha.
Anyway, the good news is that I think I've cracked it:
After updating the OS per your suggestion, uninstalling both Audacity and the m-audio (profire 610), and lastly resetting defaults on sys audio midi prefs I was still experiencing this problem - just on a line-in to Garageband. Pure frustration.
So eventually I just elected (in lieu of chucking the hardware out the nearest window lol) to do a cold re-install of the OS (erase and install option, backup hdd done). As I bought the iMac in January the OS is 10.5.5 I think.
After install, before doing anything else at all, I opened Garageband, set up an audio track and set input prefs to Line in Stereo 1/2 etc, and hooked up the tape unit via rca and the line-in port. The result? Perfect 2-channel stereo.
My personal theory is that the problem was created by the audio interface installation - an m-audio "profire 610" - Tho Audio interfaces are a frickin minefield anyway between Macs and PCS, chipset compatabilities, dodgy beta drivers, worthless gadget-hawking etc etc... I also realised that while my first original attempt was on Audacity I had already installed the profire unit just immediately before (but didn't use it). I doubt it was Logic which is designed specifically for the mac - I feel this theory might be proven when I reinstall these.
So there you go - get the Audio interface right it seems.. And I've got stereo audio.
Thanks for your help and input Pancenter - much obliged.
Peace.
