My earphones only work on the left side on Macbook Air (2012)

I don't remember if it wasn't working from before, I just bought a new Macbook Air; today, I plugged in my earphones and only the left side was working (left bud). It also works this way with my headphones and Apple Earbuds. Any ideas?

It could be that they're faulty, or myabe even your PC. Have you tried another pair of headphones on the PC to see if it's the PC that's faulty instead of the headphones?

  • Recon3D Omega Wireless Only working from the left side

    Hi everyone,
    A week ago I purchased the Sound Blaster Recon3D Omega Wireless headset. Today I started setting them up in my Ps4 and Pc and there is no sound comming out from the right side. Does anyone know what it could be? Or did the headset came defective?
    thank you very much in advance!

    An iPhone's warranty is only valid in the country where it was originally sold.  You have to return it to that country for warranty service.

  • IdeaTab s6000 F - Sound only comes from the left side when using headphones

    I have tried four different headphones including a set of Beats and the sound only comes out of the left side. It just started doing this three-four days ago. I have tried resetting the tablet back to factory but it did not work. Is there any way to get this to work? I would hate to have to return it as I love the tablet besides this one issue. 

    Hi Cory74,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    I’m sorry to hear that Audio is not working as expected from right side in your S6000-F Tablet even after performing the Factory reset, as the issue persists this seems to be hardware related. I would Strongly Suggest Calling Technical Support for Assistance to get the details of nearest Authorized Service Center to get the issue analyzed.
    Click here to open a link where you can select the country and get the exact contact support number. I’m sure they will be a great help.
    Do post us back for further queries.
    Best Regards

  • Help! LEFT SIDE OF MACBOOK AIR SCREEN NOT WORKING

    The left side of my screen has horizontal lines and static.It is about 1 1/2 inches in.  It is constantly moving and the left side of the screen looks backwards in that section.  The rest of my computer works fine, I just can't touch the left side. I have no clue what happened.

    you have a faulty Air, ...if purchased within 14 days return for a new one.
    Before doing same reset SMC
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
    unlikely this will solve same.
    Your logic board and/or monitor cable are defective (most certainly).   If out of 14 days make appt. for repair/diagnostic.

  • A strange one - setPixels only works against the left of the screen

    setPixels(int x, int y, int w, int h, ColorModel model, int[] pixels, int off, int scansize)My applet's split into different bits. The main game screen (which I'm animating to with pixel[]) starts in the top left hand corner...
    _consumer.setPixels(0,0,ScreenWidth,ScreenHeight,_model,(int[])pixel,0,ScreenWidth);ScreenWidth and ScreenHeight are the dimensions of the main game screen. There's a stats area to the right, but that's just done with Graphics.drawString, etc..
    Anyway, I want the statbox to go on the left, so I need the main screen to get drawn on the right. No problem, right?
    _consumer.setPixels(StatboxWidth,0,ScreenWidth,ScreenHeight,_model,(int[])pixel,0,ScreenWidth);
    java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
            at java.lang.System.arraycopy(Native Method)
            at sun.awt.image.IntegerInterleavedRaster.setDataElements(IntegerInterleavedRaster.java:359)
            at sun.awt.image.ImageRepresentation.setPixels(ImageRepresentation.java:484)
            at Strib.update_consumer(Strib.java:197)
            at Strib.paint(Strib.java:99)
            at Strib.run(Strib.java:187)
            at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484)The only way i can increase x at all is by decreasing w by the same amount, giving me a smaller main screen. I've tried changing the offset up or down just in case but that doesn't help. What am I missing?
    Thanks for your help!

    you only call consumer.setPixels() once at the end of the frame.
    all the drawing goes into your pixel[].
    the width in setPixels() is being added to the x. since the width is the max value its overflowing.
    public void run()
       while (running)
          render();
          update(pixels);
          try
             thread.sleep(threadDelay);
          } catch (InterruptedException e)
    public void render()
       java.util.Arrays.fill(pixels, 0x000000); // fill the screen wiht black 
       writePixel(100,100,0xFF0000); // put a red pixle at 100-100
    public synchronized void update(int[] pixels)
       if (consumer != null)
       // copy integer pixel data to image consumer
       consumer.setPixels(0, 0, width, height, model, pixels, 0, width);
       // notify image consumer that the frame is done
       consumer.imageComplete(ImageConsumer.SINGLEFRAMEDONE);
       paint();
    private synchronized void paint()
       // draw the back buffer image onto the screen
       getGraphics().drawImage(image, 0, 0, width, height, null);
    public final void writePixel(int x, int y, int color)
       int i = width * y + x;
       if (i >= 0 && i < size)// size = screen width * height
          pixels[i] = color;
    }

  • Can you upgrade the hardware in a MacBook Air 2012

    Hi, my name is Mark Bourke. I was given a present of a MacBook air 13" maxed out (everything upgraded to the max). It was bought for me because I liked the look of it and I had been keeping an eye on it for a while. Prior and during this I was gaming on my Xbox until I got fed up of paying the fees and started to game on my mac. I started gaming on OS 10 and then bootcamped over to Windows 7 because of the lack of games and poor support for gamepads. It was then that I realised I needed more processing power and VRAM. I looked into an eGPU and had my mind set but then I thought I would ask you if I could change the internal GPU. Then with the release of the new MacBook air's and the 4th gen Intel haswell CPU's I wondered if I would change the CPU too. Could you tell me if this is in any way possible or if I am just wasting my time. Thanks

    Since the device is not user upgradeable, you will have to scoure the internet for the specifics of the logicboard, chipsets used and so on to figure out compatability and what would or would not work.  That is not general knowledge information, so you'll have to search and find it all yourself.  I'd also wager you'll end up spending as much or even more moeny than a new machine would be.
    Honestly, to me, it would not be even remotely worth the effort.  Sell the current MBA and buy what you really want or need.  If PC gaming is really your big thing, I would honestly suggest getting a Windows native PC and not an Apple product in the first place (you'll get better gaming experience for less money).

  • Internet only works on the windows side of my bootcamped mac

    I have a bootcamped 2012 macbook pro running os x 10.8.5. My issue is it says that I'm connected to the internet but everything that requires internet will not load. Web pages go about 20% of the way before it stops. This is occurring on any wifi I try to connect to, not just my home internet. I have ran diagnostics as well and it tells me nothing is wrong. When I switch over to windows 8 everything works perfectly fine. I can't figure out what the problem could be.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • All of my Iphone stopped working on the left side so i thought i would restore it but when i did it wont connect back up to itunes so i can get everything baack, it wont even turn back on:( - someone please help!

    someone please help me out, i really need my phone:(!

    The update did not do anything.
    AT&T cannot and will not do anything, they do not provide support for iPhones, Apple does.
    The issue is not with the iPhone or iOS if you've reset network settings and tried forgetting the Wi-Fi Network, it is specific to the network.
    Check the settings on the router, try disabling the security settings first... that will clarify the issue is not with the device but rather the Network.

  • The left side of my headphones became echo sound

    My headphones only works on the left side. I was using the iPod Classic, suddenly the left side of my headphones becomes echo-y. When I plugged the iPod on my computer and I used my headphones on my computer, it sounds fine. I know now my headphones are fine, but is my iPod ok?
    PS. I checked the equalizer and it was off.

    I'm having the same issue - earphones are fine and work properly in other devices but I do not have any sound coming through the right earphone
