In Ear buds for Gym use

Hey!
My wife is currently lamenting the passing of her FOURTH pair of 'Sennheiser cx300's in ear buds' in under 2 years!
My personal experience of Sennheiser has been excellent to say the least.I had a pair of CX300's for over 2 years before they failed,and presently am very satisfied with my CX500's.They are pretty robust and reliable,as were my 300's.
It mustn't be coincidence that my wife regularly uses hers at the Gym.Which leads me to suspect that perspiration(didn't wanna type sweat.....doesn't look nice!) is compromising the units.
With that in mind,can anyone who also worships their temple, recommend a hardy(waterproof?) set of buds.Might also mention I've been footing the bill each time they go!!
Don't want to spend too much hahaha they aint for me!
Cheers,
John

Sorry, I can't be of much help with your problem, but I couldn't resist---- you say YOU are "footing the bill" each time for your wife's earbuds--- I have only one question. Does your wife contribute nothing to your relationship? Earn no money? or clean your house? or take care of your children? Or cook your meals? Do your laundry? If so, how dare you say that she deserves less than you do? Ok, meant no harm, your wording just left me with a bad taste.

Wow, I need replacement soft ear buds for my headphones Apple doesnt sell them?

My dog managed to handle all three sets of the soft ear buds that have come with my Apple ear buds without damaging the ear phones themselves. I contact live support on the site who tells me to call apple care. I call Apple Care, and after a nice 10 minute wait I get a rep, who puts me on hold for another 6 minutes only to tell me they dont have them, I need to do a google search to buy aftermarket versions.
I love apple, I have apple laptops, and desktops. I have every iphone and ipod they have put out. I even buy their peripherals. Its hard to believe something as easily lost as these little solicone tips are not supplied by Apple anywhere to replace them.
Today I am truly disappointed by Apple! =(
Does anyone know where I can get a set of replacements?

This has already been answered, see this thread: Replacement parts for the new apple...: Apple Support Communities
And if I had to buy headphones again I would by the same Apple in ears, they are great!

Ear buds for black video ipod

I was wondering, are the earbuds that come with the black ipod supposed to be white? I assumed that becasue the ipod was black, so the earbuds would be too. Does anyone know anything about this? Also, does anyone know if the apple care plan can be transferred from one ipod to a newer one?

Yes the earbuds are supposed to be white for black and white iPods; and about your Applecare question I don't think you can transfer it from one iPod to another but you can transfer it to a new owner if you were to sell you iPod.

Is there an earbud adaptor or some way to use the iphone ear buds when your ears are too small for them to fit?

My ears are too small for the iPhone earbuds or any Apple ear buds for that matter. I would like a converter kit to use the ear speakers with a head strap, or ear hook. Does this exist or do I get to invent it? I have 3 sets of the Apple products and they are usless to me.

Why can caller hear me when i use and ear bud

Why can't caller hear me when I use an ear bud. I am using the same ear bud that I used with the Cosmos touch. The Cosmos 3 that I just received worked for awhile with the ear bud but not it's now. Any suggestions? I'm seriously thinking about going back to my Cosmos Touch, I'm not like this 3. The only thing I like about it is the keyboard.
Thank You

clb19,
We definitely want you to enjoy the new phone as well and it's imperative to get the earbuds working with the phone. Have you tried a different set of earbuds? It it one ear bud specifically? Other than this, do all other sound options work? Is there any damage to the phone?

Radio remote destroyed my Apple Ear Buds

Hi
I was using my apple ear buds for 4 months now, all he sudden after i got the radio remote, the left ear bud's volume dropped by 2 db, that is allot, not to mention bass frequencies out of phase now.
I can say from 16 years of recording records that the ear buds have been damaged, and i can not see how it was due to excessive volume but something with the remote, or maybe just was a matter of time due to the quality of the materials.
My ear buds, i have ONE question, will apple replace them of they have not a scratch?
http://store.apple.com/Catalog/US/Images/lmaltviewm9394ga.jpg

Apple will replace them if they are still under
warranty.

This is the iPod warranty, not the ear buds.
I wonder how i will have to go about this.

They don't perform well at all, which is one thing I don't like so much
Four iPods bought, three sets of ear buds still in original packaging

Can't get speakers to work after using ear buds what happened?

I used ear buds once and now I can't get my internal speakers to work. In "system preferences" sound output I can't select internal speakers. it just has "digital out"

No, but I thought I saw it at an earlier time and of course with the headphones connected I can hear audio. By the way, thanks for replying.

Can you use iPhone ear buds microphone with your MacBook Air?

If you use your ear buds to listen to your Facetime conversations, are also using the microphone on them to talk?

Yes you can. Any headset compatible with the iPhone works just fine for full duplex conversation on a MacBook Air of current design. The microphone and earphones are simultaneously active.

Ear Buds short out at the gym

Help,
The Ear Buds that came with Ipod are loose in my ears (larger than my ears. I have gone through several sets of buds (to block out the other music at the gym) and they have all failed. I think it is due to persperation.
Any expereince with earbuds that hold up to persperation?
Thanks

How about in-ear-monitors? They sit in ear canal like ear plug and block out most ambient noise. When I use mine I have to run iPod volume at lowest volume setting before sound is off completely.

Use ear buds and blue tooth ear phones at same time

My wife and I want to listen to a walking tour at the same time using my iPhone 5S. Can I plug in a set of wired ear buds into my iPhone for me, and at the same time have my wife listen to the same recording using a blue tooth head phones?

No. But you pick up a "Y" splitter for the headphone jack for just a few bucks and use two sets of earbuds.

For some reason , when i restore my iphone 4s to factory settings my headphones work when listening to music or youtube videos but when i backup my information onto it , it only comes out of one ear bud and i just got a new one from the apple store.

It doesn't matter what it is in your backup that's causing the problem because you can not selectively restore things from your backup. It's all or nothing.
Set you phone up as a new device and start over.

Problem use phone functions w/ear buds

Can't use iphone3GS to either receive or talk when using ear buds. No problem with ear buds and ipod function. Problem is not the ear buds since they work perfectly in another person's iphone. Any ideas as to the problem?
Thanks,

I would take it to an Apple Store genius bar ,if it is fresh out of the box

Static/poping sound/clicking while using my after market ear buds???

I'm having the "Static" issue with my new iPhone 4 as well. However, I'm only getting the static while I'm wearing my ear buds and only while talking on my phone(No issues with itunes). I took my iphone 4 back to the Apple Store and got a new one! It's doing the same thing! So, either it's BOTH of the EXPENSIVE after market ear buds I own or it's picking up interference from the car... That's all I can come up with. Any other thoughts?
Also, never happen with my other iPhones(3gs, etc..)

Last night, I actually tried to run Premiere while that file was in the trash (removed from its original location) and the application simply would not start. The splash screen would appear for a fraction of a second and then the program would crash. It remained that way until I moved the file back into its usual location, after which point the application started up.
The noise continued as before (adjusting my computer's volume also triggers it). I did notice a few things, though:
1. It appears the noise occurs mainly after I switch into Premiere from another program or the Finder then navigate clips in the timeline panel. It typically occurs when I move the red line into a clip or out of one.
2. It happens a handful of times, then seems not to occur again until I switch out of Premiere to another application, at which point it will happen a few more times, then typically stop.
3. It seems to not occur at all when Audio 7 in the timeline is hidden.
I still don't know what is really causing it but it looks as if I can work without incident if I keep Audio 7 turned off.
What a strange situation.
