Ipod only works in one ear. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

My first generation ipod touch only works in one headphone. I've tried 10 different pairs of headphones but with all of them the sound only plays in the left ear. It works in both speakers when i plug it into the speaker that connects to its wider slot (the opening on the ipod next to where the headphones are plugged in) but when i use a cord that connects to the headphone slot that lets me play my ipod on my cars speakers it only works on the left side speaker.
I don't know what's wrong with it and i really need your help, so PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!

This exact thing happened to my first gen touch. Sadly, I don't have good news for you. First side of the earphone jack stopped working. A few weeks later the headphone jack wouldn't work at all. (Using the docking slot along the bottom still worked fine the whole time, just as you said.) Unfortunately it's not possible to replace the headphone jack without replacing other major components inside the touch so it's very expensive to repair. I could not fix the problem and had to buy a new touch.

    When I use my IPod do listen to music my ear phones only works on one ear

    - You have verified that the problem is the iPod and not the headphones, right?
    - Try inserting/removing the headphone plug a dozen times or so. Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack.
    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. Likely a bad headophone jack.
    - Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished for this price. They do not fix your iPod.

    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more places.

    - Insert and remove the headphone plug a dozen times or so
    - Restore the iPod. Try to factory defaults/new iPod too.
    - If still problem then you have a hardware problem. Like the headphone jack is bad.

  • I have iPhone 3GS, and everytime I go to listen to my music with my headphones the sound only goes to one ear and when I listen to music with the speakers at the bottom speaker the left speaker only works! Can someone PLEASE HELP ME?

    My music only plays in my left ear when I'm wearing my headphones and when I'm listening to music without my headphones the music only comes out through the left speaker. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME,? YOUR HELP WILL BE MUCH APPRECIATED.?

    All iphone have one and only one speaker at the bottom.
    Have you tried another set of earphones?  Maybe they are the problem?
    Have you made sure that the headphones are inserted all the way?

  • Sound only works in one ear

    My ipod just stopped playing in the left ear for no reason. I haven't dropped it or anything. It's not the headphones, I have tried the same headphones on other electronics and they play fine. I have tried multiple pairs of headphones and they all only play in one ear

    its your audio jack...its happened to my ipod before...you can buy one for real cheap on ebay...they go for no more than 10 bucks...you have to install it yourself though...its not that hard just that theres alot of little screws

  • Create a user that can only access to one schema - please help!!

    Hi all,
    I want to create one user in a Oracle DB that can only access to one schema. I did the following:
    CREATE USER "TEST" PROFILE "DEFAULT"
    IDENTIFIED BY "test" DEFAULT TABLESPACE "USERS"
    TEMPORARY TABLESPACE "TEMP"
    ACCOUNT UNLOCK;
    GRANT SELECT ON "TESTDTA"."F0007" TO "TEST"
    GRANT "CONNECT" TO "TEST";
    I have done a test and the user TEST can access all schemas, when I only gave explicit permissions to the schema TESTDTA.
    Any suggestion/clarification???
    Many thanks in advance.
    Víctor.

  • When im putting my headphones in my ipod plugged it only works in one ear, is it garanteed ?

    Everytime i want to listen to music i plugged my head phones in my ipod and on one side it never works.
    Its not a probleme from my headphones cause i used it on my computer and it was working well.

    Try pluggin in other headphones to the iPod. If it stills doesn't work, take it to an Apple Store ASAP. It sounds like you have a faulty iPod.

  • My ipod only works on one of my computer and i pay for songs on the computer that will not put it on there wat do i do to fix it?

  • My headphone port only works through one ear, is there an easy fix?

    Hi, I have always been careful to not leave my headphones plugged in when I'm not using my iPod (classic), but yesterday for some reason no music will play through the right headphone. I have tried three different sets of headphones and it's the same will all of them so it has to be the iPod, is there an easy fix at all? if i have to have it fixed does anyone know how much it might cost?
    Thanks, Lauren.

    I don't think it's possible anymore. I'm mildly surprised you were able to keep podcasts in regular playlists this long - I thought this option disappeared back with iOS7.
    I do share your pain. I've finally grown used to having the podcasts in a separate app, but I still don't like it.

  • My headphones only work in one ear. Have I altered a setting my accident?

    My toddler plays with my iPod, has he altered a setting by accident?

    - Have you tried another pair of headhones or tested the headphones on another device to determine if an earphone or iPod problem?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R".

  • Headphones only play in one ear

    My Apple headphones started only working in one ear on my iPhone 4s. I tried the headphones in other devices and they work fine. I tried different headphones on my phone and they do work in both ears. However they do not work with the device that I use to listen to my phone in my car.

    Interesting.  Well, thanks for sharing that with us.

    iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server

  • Does anyone know why my music won't play on my 7th generation iPod nano? I tried resetting it already and that didn't work. Can someone please help?

    Does anyone know why my music wont play on my 7th generation iPod nano? I've tried resetting it already but that didnt work. Can someone please help.

    I would to a Restore.  Select the iPod in iTunes.  Go to the Summary tab for the iPod.  There is a button there to do a Restore.  This will erase the iPod, re-install its software, and set it to default settings.  After Restore complete, try playing songs on the iPod again.
    If THAT does not fix the problem, and it's not bad headphones (since you also tried the "speaker"), there is probably a hardware problem on the iPod.  All 7th gen nanos are still under warranty.  If you have an Apple Store nearby, you should take it to the store's Genius Bar.  To minimize waiting, you can make a reservation on store's web page.
