Help with headphones on laptop

I got a set of the HN-505 headphones for my laptop. But the problem is that is it has a two-prong connection. but my laptop only has a single output jack and a micro-phone jack. so when i plug in the headphones I can only hear audio on one side. I was sold these headphones w/ the laptop so i assumed they would work. what am i doing wrong?
thanks

lol yea i feel like an idiot...i must of been tired or something. the mini-jack was actually plugged into some kind of splitter (2 prongs). so i just unplugged the splitter and plugged directly to the laptop and everything works fine.
thanks for the help

  • Help with a display laptop.

    So I went to best buy tonight and got a new laptop. The only one left was the display model which was ok since it was in good shape. Problem is I get home and it's in demo mode and I can't figure out how to reset it or get rid of the demo mode setting.  Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    No... Its not.

  • Help with disassemble of laptop.

    Hello guys,
    I have Toshiba Satellite L840D for about two years now. I am quite happy with its performance despite the overheating which is common on Toshibas and I am used to it by now.  
    I want to increase performance a bit and would like to disassemble it to clean the inside from the dust it must have after two years. I have done it a lot on PCs however I am quite new to laptops. Is there any instruction or guide how to disassemble this laptop (Satellite L840D) so I do not mess everything? Also any help and tips would be amazing. 
    Thank you,
    Martynas

    There's an L830 here.

  • Need Help With Headphones

    I'm thinking of purchasing some SteelSeries Siberia V2 headphones only to realize they need both mic and audio jacks. How do i connect them both when there's only one port on the MacBook Pro 13"?

    See your other post. You may need something like an iMic device to get them to work but I would check with the manufacturer of the headphones first.

  • Blackberry 9720 help with headphones

    I have a blackberry curve 9720. It hasn't been giving me any problems. Recently I've tried listening to music through my Skull candy EARphones and it wont work. It has worked in the past. There isn't option available that says activate headset. The EARphones work on my laptop. My Stuff HEADphones work on my phone. Any reason why my EARphones wont work on bb device, remember it did work before.

    Have you tried another earpiece on the phone?

  • How can I use the microphone on the iPhone 5 headphones with my ASUS Laptop?

    ASUS Vivobook X202E
    Windows 8
    Headphone jack is both headphone and microphone jack
    How can I manage to use the microphone on my Apple iPhone 5 headphones with my ASUS laptop?
    When I plug in the headphones, only the headphones work, the microphone does nothing.
    Anyone find a solution.
    Thank you in advance for any and all help.

    I doubt that the Apple headset is compatible with your laptop. Apple devices have an extra "ring" in the plug and jack for connecting the control buttons. Your laptop does not recognize the extra contact.

    Try a hard reset:- hold the home button AND the power switch - ignore the red "Slide to power off" and wait ubntil the iPhone powers down, and then restarts - at the Apple logo, release all the buttons and see if your contacts reappear.
