My iPhone only outputs audio on the left channel.

Randomly and without changing any settings, my iPhone has started only outputting the left channel of stereo audio, i.e. when I play a song on it I only hear it through the left channel. I've tried different sets of headphones, same story. Also it has stopped responding to volume changes via the inline remote - play/pause still works....
What could be wrong??

I am getting audio output from only my left earbud. However, the volume control mounted on the right channel cable is functioning fine. I plugged in another set of earbuds and they seem to work fine.
Can anybody help? Or do I have to visit the Apple store for a replacement of earbuds?

I have a scarlett solo usb mic interface that only records audio to the left channel in quicktime.

When I record a movie using my web cam in conjuction with my scarlett solo usb mic interface it only records audio to the left channel. I have tried everything and looked everywhere! Any help would be appreciated.

Maybe:
Quicktime Input is always mono?
how can I make a stereo recording in QuickTime?

When I press 'Low Latency' button I only have audio coming through left channel ?!

When I press 'Low Latency' button I only have audio coming through left channel !?
When you take it off 'Low Latency' mode the audio is fine and comes out Right and Left speaker.
Can anyone please advise why this happening and how I can fix it ?

I think Pancenter is trying to get you to read and understand the "Working in Low Latency" section of the manual as the results or problems with working in Low Latency mode are variable.
This section, for instance:
Note: The sound may change in Low Latency mode. Depending on the plug-ins in use, the changes can be anything from subtle to dramatic. If plug-ins being used do not exceed the total latency limit, there will be no audible difference.
If it was me posting about this issue I would now come back with what exactly is inserted/bussed on the tracks because it could be an accumulative problem based on what plug-ins you have active and if they are on audio tracks (stereo or mono), instrument tracks etc. Lots of variables. The section of the manual quoted above won't give specific instances as any user could be using any combination of any amount of plug-ins.
So more information is needed before anyone can help you any further.

No audio in the left channel

I was given an old G4 and I'm not computer illiterate by any means but as a PC user I'm at a loss as to how to fix anything on a Mac. I've been using it for almost a year now and I'm not actually sure when this problem started but I get no audio out of the left channel. I've checked the audio balance in system preferences and the audio utilities and everything looks normal and in the center. Restarting doesn't do anything. I don't know how Macs work so I don't know if it's something as simple as downloading newer drivers. I'm running Mac OS X 10.4.1.1. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Thank you. I feel kind of foolish now. I only use headphones when I'm recording and I run into a similar, but as it turns out, different problem. I do get the left channel in my headphones so something must be wrong with my speakers (some 2.1 Logitech set I bought a long time ago).
However, when I try to record music, I don't get a left channel for the input. I've assumed until now they were related problems so I have just been recording in stereo, splitting the tracks, deleting the left, duplicating the right and making one of them a left. It's kind of a pain and now I have no idea what's causing that. I've tried running just a guitar, just a mic, both through a pedal, and both through my amp. I get the same problem every time so it's either my line-in or the 1/8"-1/8" chord I have. I don't have a spare to test the latter but I'll try that maybe tomorrow. Any idea what that problem could be if not the chord?

Help I only get a mono audio in the left channel now

I am only getting a left channel mono sound when rendering
My videos with iMovie on my iPod Touch 4g 32 gb.
My first iMovie came out fine with multiple clips and all in stereo
I can find no help on the issue.

They are either linked and/or a stereo pair. If you see the name of the clip underlined they are linked...press "Command + L". The undeline should go away. If you see arrows on the clips pointing to one another then that is a stereo pair. Press "Option + L" and the triangles should go away. You can then use "Command + L" to relink you video with your audio...if you so choose.

If I have audio coming from left channel. How do I make same audio Left and Right?

Hi there,
I've recorded some footage with a mono mic and it recorded the audio on the left channel of the audio. In FCP. I placed this audio clip as a part of a multi-cam clip but the sound is only coming out the left. Is there a way to set this audio to mono or to make them play the same levels through the left and right channels?
Thanks,
Caleb

Wow! 30 Seconds later, I figured it out. LOL
Under Inspector for audio, you just click on channel configuration, click on channel and use "Dual Mono" mode. Thanks Caleb!

I am sening al my sounds out of the computer to be summed on a mixing decks and then the 2 channles of audio from the deck is coming back into my soundcard as an digital a signle on INPUTS 9/10.
Can anyone please advise ..........!?!

Might want to read on what Low Latency mode does + why and when you should use it.
It's basically only used in realtime monitorinr when recording and/or when recording softsynths.
By reading the docs you should be able to figure out why the right side is being muted.
http://documentation.apple.com/en/logicpro/usermanual/index.html#chapter=41%26se ction=2%26tasks=true
Be sure software monitoring is Off when recording the summed input.

Copy an audio loop's left channel and duplicate it over to the right.

I've got an audio loop that has noise in its right channel. When I pan it hard left the noise disappears. How do I duplicate the track (a simple bassline) so I can re-produce only the left channel on the original loop panned hard right on a duplicate track? Once I've done this I'll try and bring them both back toward the centre as they can be treated like a mono bassline .

If you look at the channel strip, at the input slot, you'll see a symbol that looks like two intersecting circles. Click-hold on that to get a menu. Among the options is 'left' which will turn the channel into a mono channel that only plays the left side content.

When I create a photo stream in ios6, everyone who is logged in to my iCloud account can see and edit my stream (on their iPhones only). Not just the email addressees that I sent the photo stream link to. Is that how photo stream security is meant to work? Is so it means my whole family can see any photo stream I set up. Hence no security? Can't share the pics with the wife then :(

The whole idea to an icloud account is that one user uses it and has all their devices synced together. Different users need different Apple IDs to create their own icloud accounts. Note that everyone can still use the same ID for an iTunes account (to share purchases).

How do I make my Mac not use the external mic on my Apple Earphones but output audio through the earphones?

I want to use the microphone built in to the MacBook Pro while still outputting audio through the Apple Earphones. This is because the microphone on my earphones has stopped working. If anyone knows how to do this, please tell me

Based on the info you provided, is this your printer?

If so, it appears the do have a driver available for Lion.

I am using duel thunderbolt displays with a MacBook Pro. I only have the option to have sound come from one or the other. Has anyone thought of making the left channel come from both speakers on the left Monitor and the same of the right? If yes, how is that done? The MacBook Pro could even be a center channel if configured in that order.

See the following thread on the same topic:
2 Thunderbolt displays MBP = sound coming from both displays?

Audio Input on the Left Channel is fine, Right Channel, Not So Much...

Okay, so I'm attempting to record some audio into my eMac using it's 3.5mm Line Input Jack, but Sound Studio is telling me that all of the audio is coming out of the left channel.
I checked balance, it's a new cable that works fine otherwise, the device I'm recording from sounds fine on headphones.
Any suggestions?

Hmm. I think someone more technically-inclined with audio could help you out here. I tried recording audio on my eMac with QuickTime Player (I'm not sure if you need QuickTime Pro to do this, otherwise I would suggest you try the same thing). I have a similar experience as you. The QuickTime A/V window (control-K) informs me that the audio balance is shifted completely to the right channel (rather than left, as you observe in Sound Studio). And there is no way to adjust this, it is also "greyed out". This QuickTime recording is through the built-in microphone on my eMac. Might there exist (pricier) external microphones that are specifically capable of stereo recording? Or perhaps our eMacs aren't capable of stereo recording, at least without hardware modifications. I don't know. Clearly, I'm ignorant about this. Perhaps there is a Discussion going on somewhere else around here that is more Audio-specific?

HT1602 Hi, does my iPhone need to be on the left side of my body to work well with the Nike+ sensor in my shoes? I used it on my right side and the calibration was so off point.

Hi, does my iPhone need to be on the left side of my body to work well with the Nike+ sensor in my shoes? I used it on my right side and the calibration was so off point. I recently got a Bluetooth headphone and the antennae is on the right ear piece. For seamless connection am required to have my iPhone on my right arm if am using the headphone outdoors.

I was wondering this too. Did you ever get an answer? I just bought a non-nike pair of sneakers and have a pod pouch now on my laces. I have it tight, at the lower part of the laces so its flat. When its on the left side my time is very similar to what it was when I used the nike shoes. When it is on the right side, my time is about 35sec/mile higher. I wonder which is more accurate and if you are supposed to have them on the same side. If so, then that is as accurate as with my nike shoes. Hope we get an answer soon. Im about to return everything its so frustrating.

My iPhone only outputs audio on the left channel.
