Is it possible to get custom eartips for the Apple In-ear headphones?

A year or so ago I purchased the Apple In-ear headphones. I use them primarily in the car when my brother plays his music through the car stereo while I'm watching a movie on my iPod Touch or my MacBook Pro. They have very good isolation, but are uncomforable and it is very hard to get them to fit in my ears properly as well as keeping them from working themselves out of my ears. This is with me using the small eartips as the large eartips don't fit in my ears at all and the medium eartips make my ears hurt more than the small eartips along with not fitting as well.
I think custom eartips may be the best solution to my quandry.
Is it possible to get custom eartips for my Apple In-ear headphones?
If so, where can I get custom eartips for my Apple In-ear headphones?

i would definitely try amazon.com, im sure there are some earips on there that are fit to work with apple in-ear headphones, hope this helps!

  • Do third party replacement tips fit on the apple in ear headphones? I prefer foam tips as they block out much more sound, but I'm not sure if Apple use the standard fitting for headphone tips!?!?!?!

    Do third party replacement tips fit on the apple in ear headphones? I prefer foam tips as they block out much more sound, but I'm not sure if Apple use the standard fitting for headphone tips!?!?!?!

    Answer found. Please find below an amazon review explicitly mentioning adding third party foam tips. Sounds like they fit and work like a dream:
    "As a audio engineer, I own about a dozen different sets of earphones and in-ear 'phones. My favorite, by far, are my sure SE530s. I have some Sennheiser cx400s which are good workhorses, but lack the finesse, clarity and stunning accuracy of the Shures. For convenience, I bought the Apple's, as I wanted something I could use with the phone for calls.
    I found the sound to be quite clear and beautifully clean, but like many, no matter how I tried, the stock Apple tips never made a good seal. The seal is absolutely essential to getting bass out of a balanced armature design. For you non-engineers, just trust me that if you don't have a proper seal, you will have no bass.
    In my case, I think the trouble had to do with the largest size being a tiny bit too small, and the silicon being too rigid, yet slick, so they left small airgaps and were easy to remove. I tried using some foam tips from a third party, but their large was more of a medium, and never came close to a snug fit.
    As an experiment, I dug around in my ear-tips from my Shure's and tried their rubber tips which are about the same size as Apple's large tips, but made of a more pliant and slightly sticky rubber.
    OMG, what a transformation. Suddenly the sound blossomed, the bass became rich and well balanced, and the "top-heavy" sound was totally mellowed into a rich, well balanced and incredibly detailed presentation.
    Make no mistake, these are the best 'phones under $200 I have ever heard. The bass is deep and warm, very detailed, and totally lacking fuzz or buzz that I can hear in the Sennheiser set. Look at getting tips from a better headphone. The trick is it has to have a soft rubber base that can expand over Apple's slightly larger stub. Some tips, like the Shure foam tips, have a rigid plastic sleave in the tip to keep it's position correct, and these won't expand over the larger Apple posts."

  • I lost one of the earbuds for my Apple In-ear Headphones with Mic. Now what do It do?

    I lost one of the earbuds for my Apple In-ear Headphones with Mic.
    In case you don't see why this could be a big deal, let me remind you that these little earphones will run you $79 new. Naturally, I'm sure there's got to be a reasonable solution that another owner of these headphones may know of or can share with me.
    Should I bring it to the Apple store or will they just laugh at me?
    Basically, all I'm missing is the jelly-like in-ear bud on one side (which is easily replaceable; I just need to know where I can order GENUINE extras from).
    Click here to see the Apple In-ear Headphones I'm referring to.

    I've tried several and the best by far is the Sennheiser MM50 iP ($99 at the apple store). The sound is incredible, particularly the low frequecy response (bass). These are even better than the Bose Triports I used for my iPod, plus they have the mic and button for recieving calls and ipod playback. I also have the airdrives, which don't even compare for sound quality and range because they aren't in-ear (they sit directly in front of the ear canal). I still use the airdrives in situations where I want music distraction but still want to hear what's happening around me, but for in-ear sound quality and iPhone functionality I don't think you're going to find better for the Sennheisers for under $100. In fact I don't think their is anything under $250 right now that would match it for performance, comfort and functionality.
    Note: these are asymmetrical which means the cord for the right earbud goes behind your neck to the right ear. I found this strange at first but now I actually like it because it allows you to pull the earlplugs out and just let them rest over your neck/shoulders.

  • If I have Apple Care and I have defective earphones is it possible to get them exchanged for the new earpods

    Or will they replace with old earphones?

    Or will they replace with old earphones?
    Eww. I doubt it.
    The accessories you buy with your iPhone are covered under the same AppleCare agreement.
    They will probably just give you new ones.

  • Is it possible to get a refund for a case i bought at the store but its not an apple product?

    I bought a kate spade plastic case at the store 2 months ago and even the first day of having it on my iPhone I had multiple issues with it. However, I couldn't return it because I was away at school. I went into the Apple store and asked about the possibility of getting a refund for the case but they said it was a third party product and to contact the manufacturer. I called kate spade and since i wanted a refund and purchased at the apple store there was nothing they could do and to ask the apple store for my money back because thats where I purchased it. Am I ever going to get a refund and what should I do at this point?
    Thanks

  • Is it possible to create a customs declaration for the document which is cleraed from customs

    Hi Experts,
    I want to generate a custom declaration for the declaration which is cleared from customs.
    Is there any function module for this requirement.
    Please post your suggestions ASAP.
    Thanks
    Srinivas

    hi Srinivas,
    It’s not possible to create a new declaration for a declaration that is
    already accepted by customs. There could be below 2 possible options
    1. U need inbound cancellation messages in the respective activity sequence,
    and then u can request customs by mail or phone to send the cancellation
    message. Once the cancellation message is received document gets cancelled and
    u can create new declaration
    2. U need a new optional activity sequence that will have outbound
    cancellation message. once u trigger the cancellation message, customs will
    reply back with the cancellation confirmation message and u can create a new
    declaration
    Hope this helps...

  • XML DB: is it possible to get a row for each element in a container element?

    I have an XML document containing a container element (collection). If I query, using an XPath expression, the contained elements I get a row for each container element with the contained element concatenated. Is it possible to get a row for each contained element?
    I run this simple query:
    select extract(xmltype('<colors><color>Red</color><color>Green</color></colors>')
    , '/colors/color/text()').getstringval() from dual
    And get this result:
    EXTRACT(XMLTYPE('<COLORS><COLOR>RED</COLOR><COLOR>GREEN</COLOR></COLORS>'),'/COL
    RedGreen
    1 row selected.
    What I would like to have is:
    Red
    Green
    2 rows selected.
    Wishful thinking or possible? Many thanks!

    Sure. This is where our XMLSequence() function comes in. It allows you to treat the top-level nodes in a nodeset as if they were rows in a table when combined with the TABLE() operator. Here's an example.
    First, to make the SQL look a little cleaner, I like to define a function like this:
    create or replace function testdoc return xmltype as
    begin
      return xmltype('<colors><color>Red</color><color>Green</color></colors>');
    end;.
    To break out the nodeset of <color> elements as a table, we use the following query:
    select value(list_of_color_elements).extract('*/text()').getStringVal() as color
    from TABLE( XMLSequence( extract(testdoc(),'/colors/color'))) list_of_color_elements.
    Or, using the new-in-9.2 extractValue() operator so we don't have to remember the text() part:
    select extractValue( value(list_of_color_elements), '.') as color
    from TABLE( XMLSequence( extract( testdoc() ,'/colors/color'))) list_of_color_elements.
    Here the TABLE(XMLSequence(...)) combo produces a table of XMLType, with one XMLType object in each row of the table.
    In general, if the XMLType instance were coming from an XMLType table xmltab the query would look like this:
    select extractValue( value(colors), '.') as color
    from xmltab x, /* Important that this table comes earlier in the FROM clause! */
         TABLE( XMLSequence( extract( value(x),'/colors/color'))) colors.
    And if the XMLType were instead in a column of XMLType named doc in a table xmltab, then we would have the syntax:
    select extractValue( value(colors), '.') as color
    from xmltab x, /* Important that this table comes earlier in the FROM clause! */
         TABLE( XMLSequence( extract( x.doc ,'/colors/color'))) colorsOnce you get the hang of it, you'll see that the combination of TABLE(XMLSequence()) to "shred" XML nodes into rows, and XMLAgg() to aggregate fragments of XML across multiple rows back into a single document, is quite powerful.

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    Apple does not take trade-ins. In a few countries Apple does work with a company who will give you some return on an existing device; for the US, see:
    http://www.apple.com/recycling/gift-card/
    Similar programs are available in a few other countries, and some dealers may have their own trade-in programs. But you most probably can get more for your iPhone 4 if you sell it yourself.

  • Hello, I am running a Mac book pro soft. 10.5.8 version. Since june the current year I did not get any updates for the software or any kinds of other application, in my opinion that's weird for such a company.

    Hello, I am running a Mac book pro soft. 10.5.8 version. Since June the current year I did not get any updates for the software or any kinds of the other application, in my opinion that's weird for such a company.
    The problem that I have now is with the Iphone 5 which is not supported for the current Itunes and I can not download the Itunes 10.7 version. What I supposed to do in this case because I can not syncronize at all.
    Please give me a hand as soon as possible.
    Many thanks

    Mac OS X 10.5.8 is years old, 3 major versions out-of-date and unsupported at this point. You will never get any further updates for 10.5.8, and more and more applications will stop supporting 10.5.8 as time goes on. As mende1 points out, you can buy Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6), which will let you use your new iPhone with your computer, but you need to make sure your computer's hardware is supported. See the system requirements for Snow Leopard:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    If your computer cannot run Snow Leopard, you will need to either buy a new computer or abandon any thoughts of syncing the iPhone with that computer.
    Also, note that you'll get far better integration of your iPhone and your Mac if you're using Lion (Mac OS X 10.7) or Mountain Lion (Mac OS X 10.8), which are required to use iCloud. Of course, the requirements of those systems are even steeper than those of Snow Leopard:
