Ipod classic only plays music through the left earphone. Has anyone had this before and is there anyway to fix this?

I imagine there is a problem with the headphone socket. Will i have to send my i-pod to apple to sort or will it almost be cheaper to just replace it?

I had a quick search for prices last night. As I recall the site that caught my eye was the e-bay store for this company but I was looking at their page for Nano & 5th gen. They're quoting £29.99 for the 6th gen. service, probably more because it is harder to get into. As I understand it you book the service, send it in via insured post, they fix and send it back. You can shop around, that looks like a reasonable deal.
Good luck.

  • IPod Classic 80GB will only play music through the right earphone

    Hi everybody
    a few days ago my ipod stopped playing music through both earphones and will now only play through the right one. it isn't the headphones because i brought a new set and used another set that i know work through both earphones but neither will work through both earphones on my ipod. This problem is really annoying me. I tried resetting it but nothing. I didn't do anything to it, i just didn't use it for a few days. and i really want to avoid restoring it to factory settings because it is almost full and only a handful of my songs are on my computer. any solutions?

    Yeah I now know that after finding it in another thread. Thanks anyway. I live in Australia so I just gotta find someone who will repair it because I don't wanna risk ruining it by trying to do it myself. I asked an electronics place that replaces the batteries but they wouldn't do it. So if I can't find anybody to fix it, I'll probably buy a new one (cos I need one anyway) and try to fix the old one. The problem with finding someone to fix it is that I live in a country town and about 2-3 hours from Sydney and we don't have much here.

  • Shuffle (2nd Gen) Will only play music through the right headphone

    Hi all
    the reason I have a 2nd Gen was ebcause my original Shuffle had the same problem, then wouldnt play through either unless I HELD the phones in the plug..
    Now my new shuffle (2nd Generation) has the early signs of this problem. It will not play music through the left earphone at all (Ive tried 3 pairs, its not the phones)..
    My shuffle was purchase december sometime but I dont think I registered it when I installed Itunes.
    Still have recept if that helps?
    Thanks

    Has anyone had this problem? With earbuds connected the ipod keeps turning itself off. I then have to turn it on and it will play for another 60 sec and shut off.

    Make sure the plug is fully inserted into the iPod.  There will be a noticeable click, and you may need to push harder than expected.

  • HT4059 After giving up the iPad2, I bought the 3rd gen.  I was happy with it until I tried to download my books.  All apps downloaded fine.  I'm still having trouble downloading the books.  Has anyone had this problem?

    This is my first time asking a question.  I'm guessing at what I need to do.  I don't see steps to follow and so...here goes!
    I have used the original iPad, the second gen, and now bought the 3rd gen.  I have had no trouble in downloading all my apps and books from one iPad to the next until I bought the iPad3.  Was this a mistake???
    I continue to have trouble viewing my books or PDFs through the iBook(shelf).  When going into the Apple Store, the tech and I were very confused.  He even messaged his boss.  We discovered that if we typed in the title, it would appear as "install."  If I clicked on "installation" I could reinstall it on my new iPad3.  Last week, before giving up my iPad2 to my district, I wanted more storage space.  The Apple tech noticed that I had 2 accounts.  Because they were for the iPads which I had returned, I deleted them which recovered a lot of memory.  Then, I bought the iPad3 and problems began!  Help!!!

    AT&T uses Yahoo for its webmail.  The only way to access mail without Yahoo is through e-mail software such as Entourage. (My MacBook's Mail software has never accepted the AT&T settings, so I gave up long ago.)
    When I first got the iPad about three weeks ago, I took a chance and selected the Yahoo account option to set up my incoming and outgoing mail servers. And the settings that the iPad chose worked beautifully. Until today.
    That might very well be part of my problem. However... why wasn't it a problem at all until about three hours ago? I'm a little afraid to change settings right now, in case it's just AT&T mucking around on their end this afternoon. I keep hoping it will just start working again.
    Full disclosure: I actually did get two messages to go through after I installed then deleted the Dropbox app. I was so happy. I thought it was fixed. But a second message -- and about ten subsequent messages -- did not go through. It's very hit or miss. But 99% of the time, the icon spins and the message doesn't go anywhere. The first time it happened, it told me the outgoing mail server wasn't available. The other times, there was nothing but spinning until I force-quit the Mail app in the dock. There's nothing in the outbox at all, perhaps because I quit before an autosave could occur.

  • Hi I have a MacBook Pro 2011 i7 and it stays on for about 4 hours then the screen go's fuzzy and I have to turn it off by the power button has anyone had this problem thanks mike

    I Have a MacBook Pro i7 2011 it stays on for about 4 hours then the screen go's all fuzzy and I have to turn it off by the power button has any body else had this problem thanks mike

    My guess would also be a failling connection between your logicboard and your GPU. See 2011 MacBook Pro and Discrete Graphics Card
    For most users it starts with some random crashes and freezes like you describe it. And then it just gets worse and worse. There are still no "good" solutions, sadly. This is a hardware problem from the production.

    I have six memory cards that my computer will not download. It says there is an error with one of the photos. Has anyone had this problem and what do I do to fix it? It used to download

    What version of iPhoto?
    Does this message come on all six cards?
    Are these Raw or Jpegs? If Raw, what camera?
    Can you access the images on the cards with Image Capture (in your Applications folder?)

  • IPod plays music through the speaker on the back

    Hi,
    My new iPod nano 5th generation seems to play music through the back speaker for the camera and voiceover options. When i plug in my headphones, it will play through those, as well as the speaker, but even when I unplug the headphones, it plays through it still. This is annoying to the people around me to hear. Does anyone know how to fix it, i've gone through the settings on my iPod but I can't seem to figure how to turn it off and only have the music play through my headphones. Anybody have the same problem? How do I fix it?
    Thanks so much for your help.

    Is the speaker really on the back? I had been trying to figure out where the sound was coming out, and thought I had narrowed it down to the hole where the earplugs plug in. I tend to lay my iPod down on its back, and it doesn't seem to muffle the sound.
    Cutie962, I don't know about sound in general through non-iPod earphones, but in order to use the radio, you need the right earphones, because the antenna is in the cord. I can't use the delivered ones, because either I just don't know how to use them or my ears are the wrong shape - they just fall out immediately. I was trying to figure out which ones Apple sells also have the antenna for the radio, but they don't seem to list that information. I kind of like the pink ones that hook over the ear, but it would be a waste if they won't work.

  • My ipod fourth generation only play music through headphones cant play on it's internal speaker

    my ipod fourth generation only play music through headphones cant play on it's internal speaker

    - Insert/remove the headphne plug a dozen times or so. Clean out/blow out the headphone jact.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:
    - A reset. Nothing is 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.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. You likey have a bad headphone jack.

  • IPod only playing music through one earphone

    My ipod (5th gen) is only playing music through one earphone! Its definitely not the earphones because they work perfectly fine in my iphone. What could the problem be?

    first off try a different set of headphones, just because they work in x doesn't mean they will work in y. Second try cleaning it- blowing in it, compressed air, more than likely there's a piece of lint or dirt stuck in there. reset, update or restore the ipod. at your own risk you could check to see that all internal connections are seated properly as these zif connectors can come loose. if nothing you probably need a new audio jack

    My Lightning to 30-Pin Connector will only play music through my iPod dock from my iPod, and will not charge my iPod touch 5th gen. Help me please.

    Have you tried resetting the dock by removing it from power?  What about resetting the iPod Touch? To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
