How do I tell all my ear buds apart?

Over the course of several years, I've gathered quite a collection of Apple ear buds. The problem is, I can no longer tell them apart. Are there significant differences I should be aware of? Are there tricks to telling which is which? Here's what I've got:
-iPod Shuffle 1G 2nd Generation Silver - I believe this one was issued before colors were introduced
-iPod Shuffle 1G 2nd Generation Blue
-iPod 30G 5th Generation
-iPod Nano 8G 2nd Generation
-iPhones (I can tell these apart as they have volume controls)
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks

well, for a couple of reasons...
1) I was thinking on selling the Shuffles and wanted to be sure I put the original headphones with the original packaging.
2) If one of the headphones is superior to the other (technological changes, etc)

  • How can I tell all PCs has the DAU installed?

    I am running ZCM 10.3 on SLES 10. I have enabled patch management and I saw the DAU has version 38. How can I tell version 38 is the latest DAU for ZCM 10.3.
    Also, how can I tell all devices have the latest DAU installed? I came across a few devices have problem with ZCM agent and after I fixed the issue, I saw it started to install the DAU. However, if I have not touched that managed devices, I would not know there is a problem. Can I check all devices status with DAU on ZCC?

  • HT3310 I have plugged in ear buds but sounds doesn't come from ear buds.  How do I toggle soundsto ear buds

    how do I get sounds from ear buds?

    Have you tried another set of ear buds? You need to make sure the plug is pushed all the way in to engage the jack. Also, cleaning out the jack may be a good idea.

  • Iphone ear buds install in ear

    Is there a site I can go to that has a good video on how to put my Iphone 5s ear buds in my ears? Can;t seem to make them stay in ear the way I am doing it. Thanks

    people have diffence shaped and sized ears
    if you don't use the mic and buttons you can use any headset with a 3.5mm minijack connector which is pretty much what all headset since the 1980's use
    if you do use the buttons and mic then there are other headsets then the ones that cones with the phone which you can buy

  • EAR BUD Headphone Problems .. the how to fix them thread!

    Hi Guys,
    Said I would start off this thread for all those with EAR BUD Headphone problems. Specifically:
    - Those with ONE SIDE quieter than the other
    - Those with ONE or BOTH sides completely gone.
    This would apply to those who own Creative players with Ear Bub Phones supplied or the like.
    I think I have a solution to those with "ONE SIDE quieter than the other". If you pull off the rubber gels from the phones you will see a MESH. You might notice an ear wax buildup on the outside of this mesh. Dont bother cleaning it yet. Now you may have to do something you wont like - Use a Jewelers Screwdriver OR some tool equally thin to POP OUT the mesh. Now turn the mesh around. You should now see the problem - HUGE WAX BUILDUP on the under side. NOW clean both sides if you wish, but you might be at a hiding for nothing - I challenge you to get the mesh back in. Not to worry - the phones and sound should now be back as it was in day one. Stick the GELS back on without the mesh. Also behind that mesh maybe a piece of foam. Up to you what you want to do with this ...
    It seems this WAX buildup issue on the underside of the mesh in EAR BUDS is a common problem across all makes. I have a Creative, Seinheiser and Philips set - all with the same issue. I did the above on all - now all are back working fine.
    Of course you may have to be on WAX lookout more frequently if you cannot get the MESH back in, which maybe the case most of the time. It would seem the very device - the mesh - that protects the buds from WAX buildup is causing a problem itself ..
    WITH respect to issues with NO SOUND on either or both sides, this maybe a cracked wire, usually up around the bud end. One thing I have not figured out in most Ear Buds is how to open the casing - over to somebody else for this,
    Hope this is helpful to others,
    Cheers, Aidan ( Cork, Ireland )

    That's a bit trickier. I think I'd select the text from the beginning of the frame wher the continuation starts and cut to the clipboard, then paste at the end of the text in the frame from where it should continue. That frame should now show an overset, and you should have a bunch of empty linked frames where the text was previously located.
    Turn on show text threads and find the first out port in front of the now empty frame and click it, then click inside the same frame (or double click the outport should work too). This will break the thread at that frame, but leave the empties threaded together so you can pick up the overset and flow it back in from the other page.

  • I'm too old to learn iCal.  How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad??  Thanks

    I'm too old to learn iCal.  How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad?? 
    Also, once I figure out how to replace iCal with Outlook/Mac on iTunes, how do I synch the phone and pad so that the information on those devices over-writes onto Outlook as a backup, rather than having a blank Calendar on Outlook wipe out all of the information on the phone and pad???
    Thanks

    If you haven't tried already, plug your devices into iTunes, and on each device next to the "Summary" tab at the top is another tab called "Info." Click that and scroll down to Contacts, Calendars, etc. There should be a pull down bar under each category for "Sync contacts from..." and you should be able to select from that pull down list Outlook.  Hit Apply at the bottom and see if that does it.

  • How do I tell iphoto NOT to load ALL images from camea and iphone, only new images?

    I've bee using my MacBook Pro, iphoto and Nikon for many years. I travel alot and take many pictures, and like to keep them on the memory cards as an extra backup. All was going great on a recent trip, until one day, suddenly, when I plug camera into computer, iphoto opens (as usual) but it starts downloading ALL of the old images on the memory card instead of just the ones that have not already been imported! It takes forever when you are using a 16GB card!! Is this due to some update I installed? How do I tell iphoto not to do this?! I only want to see images not yet imported, as it used to be. I am using OS X 10.6.8 and iphoto '09 - 8.1.2  And, this same thing is happening with my iphone, and my other camera.

    iPhoto does read all images (how else can it know if it has already imported them or not) and then gives your oppertunity to import new, all or selected
    Yes it does take a bit to get all images and see what needs to be imported - I use 32 GB cards - and the other issue is that if you delete impoprted photos next time you use the card the deleted ones will be in the new list so you have to select the rest and import selected - I've found no solution to this

  • How can you tell who the original sender of a group text is on an iPhone 5, when all that appears is a list of recipients in no particular order

    how can you tell who the original sender of a group text is on an iPhone 5, when all that appears is a list of recipients in no particular order? I can't seem to identify the sender in the details list.

    Start a separate thread to the original sender.

  • HT203167 I have just downloaded the latest itunes version (11.0.1). All my data cannot now be located, though the library is showing all the correct content.The data is stored on an external hard drive. How do I tell the library where to find it's data?

    I have just downloaded the latest itunes version (11.0.1). All my data cannot now be located, though the library is showing all the correct content.The data is stored on an external hard drive. How do I tell the library where to find it's data?

    The iTunes application should be installed on the system drive. You may need to repair iTunes to fix that error regarding a missing .exe.
    To organize your library properly see Make a split library portable.
    If you don't have a working version of the library that can be transformed into a portable shape I have tools and techniques that can repair the broken links.

  • When I plug in my ipad it automatically tries to back up and download all the contents to the C drive - the PC is too full and I have iTunes on an external hard drive, how do I tell the system to do the backup to the hard drive please?

    When I plug in my ipad it automatically tires to back up and download all the contents to the C drive - the PC is too full and I have iTunes on an external hard drive, how do I tell the system to do the backup to the hard drive please?

    You can open a command prompt by hitting the start button and typing CMD<Enter> in the search box that opens up.
    To move the current backup folder from C: to D: type in this command and press <Enter>
    Move "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "D:\Backup"
    Where <User> is your Windows user name.
    To make iTunes look for the data in the new location type in this command and press <Enter>
    MkLink /J "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "D:\Backup"
    If your external drive has a different letter or you already have a folder called "Backup" then edit "D:\Backup" accordingly in both commands.

  • How do i tell iphoto [in faces] that i dont know a person or it isn't a face at all

    how do i tell iphoto [in faces] that i dont know a person or it isn't a face at all?
    I'm using iphoto 11. Identifying all the faces in my pics.  It keeps suggesting the same pics for lots of people.  I dont know the people in these faces but I cant find a 'i dont know who this face is option to clear them out of the list of waiting to be identified.  Also some of these are people at all but odd bits of tree and such like [also faces from posters screens ...] but there seems to be no 'this is not a face option'.  I havent yet looked on the actual photo but with a library of 10,000 ish photos i dont even know how to find the photos with these particular faces in them.
    help
    thanks

    Hi,
    For a cloud service, though it is possible to access instance VMs and do changes on their file system by RDP sessions, but it is not recommended, as you will end up loosing your changes if role instance VMs are restarted.
    If you really want to keep certain settings configurable and which will be shared by all your role instances, best way to do is to utilise the cloud service configurations, typically you mention these settings in .cscfg file and you can also edit those using
    azure management portal.
    You can also access those from your code 
    string settingValue = CloudConfigurationManager.GetSetting("SettingString");

    Hi vickkjayy11 and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
    Just to be clear, we are a peer to peer support community and have nothing official to do with Apple.
    So to your problem, when you say:
    "I reset my macbook pro a few days ago"
    What exactly happened? Did you have a Time Machine backup?
    Read this:
    OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support
    It would help to know the exact model (size and year) and which OS you're using.
