One set of earbuds/earpods has one louder earbud (left) and my other pair/set is normal sounding

so recently i bought both an ipod touch (5th generation) and an iphone 5s, but i had my ipod touch just a little bit before i got an iphone 5. right when i started listening to my ipod touch i noticed that one earbud (left one) seemed to be louder than the other one (right), so i took it back to the store. i got them replaced with another pair and it didnt seem to help much but i just let it go for awhile. then, a little while after that i got a new phone which happened to be the iphone 5s which comes with the exact same kind/type of earbuds that the ipod touch comes with. so i thought maybe id try those earbuds (ones that came with iphone) out with my ipod touch to see if there would be any difference and i did notice a difference right away. the difference is very noticeable and significant and im puzzled by this. the pair that came with the iphone 5s seems to be MUCH more normal sounding than both of the ones i had for my ipod touch (the original ones that came with the ipod touch and then the ones that replaced them from the store). can anyone offer some insight for this problem?

If you have problem with all headphones that indicates a problem with the iPod.
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
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".
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be 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.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack or other hardware problem.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
You could also just compensated by the setting on the iPod.
If it only happens with certain headphones then that indicates a headphone problem, There is always some tolerance/difference between L and R of the headphones. One source is also dirty earpieces
How do I clean my EarPods effectively and without damaging the surface nor using the shirt method?
Otherwise it is a hardware problem wit the earphones.

Hello, i am interested in buying a 2010 Closeout imac 21.5 One model Is Z0JM5LL/a which has a intel i5 processor and the other is MC509LL/A which has a Intel i3 processor i figured the i5 would be better but specs say the i5 only has one processor

Hi i am interesed in buying out a closeout model of a Imac 21.5 imac The 2 models are Z0JM5LL/A which has a Intel i5 processor and the other is MC509LL/A which has a Intel i3 processor I figured the i5 would be better has better specs but it says the i3 has a dual core Meaning 2 processors and the i5 only has a single Processor meaning i would think then teh i3 is better or is it false specs about the i5 do they both have dual Core Or which one is better Remember these are 2010 Models Not the New Quadcore Which Processor i am looking at is better????

Both the I3 and I5 are dual core processors. The I3 should be the 3.2Ghz model, which has an upgraded video circuit over the base model, which is good. The 21.5" I5 would have the same video circuit. It also has turbo boost, that the I3 doesn't have, which can boost it's speed from 3.6Ghz to 3.86Ghz when needed.
If you need to compare the 2010 and 2011 models (or even 2010 only comparisons), here's some benchmarking: http://www.barefeats.com/imac11b.html , http://www.macworld.com/article/159631/2011/05/201127inimac31ghz.html , http://www.macworld.com/article/159765/2011/05/imac2011.html

I have just purchased a macbook pro. I downloaded two sd cards, one via lightroom 4 and the other via iPhoto. I can't find the latter card when I try to import via LR4. In fact i can't find it at all unless i open iPhoto. where is it?

Good Evening, I have just purchased a Macbook Pro, and have downloaded two SD cards of a trip to USA and Canada last September. One via Lightrooom 4 and the other via iPhoto. I tried to import the SD card via iPhoto into Lightroom 4 but could not find it. I tried to find this "folder"? via other means with no success. however when I open iPhoto, there it is, so it must be on the Hard Drive somwhere??? I am new to Apple having decided to jump ship from Windows. Would be grateful for any help.

iPhoto is a - like Lightroom - Photo Manager. It's a database. Like any db to get data out you have to export it.
File -> Export
and in this case set the Kind to Original.
iPhoto is a $15 app, LR is somewhat more expensive. As they both want to manage the photos there's no good usage scenario where you use both. Pick one horse and ride, essentially.

I have two iPhones, one is a 4s and the other is a 3g. I have not used my 3g in some time now. I recently restored it but I cannot use it without a sim card, it says i have to "activate it." I cannot place my iPhone 4s sim card in it (too small), and i do not want to get a new contract or sim card for an iPhone that i do not ues very much.

Thanks for your help, but i cannot borrow a noral sim card now, my family has all up graded to iPhone 4s's, i have done this before, but one of my family had the same type of iphone so i could use theirs. Now i am the only one who still holds on to their old phone... I am not sure about buying an adapter...

HT1338 My new magic mouse will not one finger scroll left and right

I am up to date with software but after connecting my new magic mouse it will not one finger scroll left and right. It does scroll up and down. Any ideas on what may be wrong??

I don't have a Magic Mouse, but there is probably a setting that enables and disables horizontal scrolling. Look on System Preferences Mouse pane.

I have two excel files I cannot open or delete from my desktop. One is titled 6ACAD200 and the other file is titled 8D73A700. How can I get these off of my computer?

I have two excel files I cannot open or delete from my desktop. One is titled 6ACAD200 and the other file is titled 8D73A700. How can I get these off of my computer?

From the names I'd guess they are temporary files. If excel is running, quit and try again. If they still won't move or delete reboot. If they still won't move or delete...kill a chicken at midnight under an oak tree?

I have a MacBook Pro 15" and my warranty just ran out! I partitioned my harddrive into two partitions, one with Snow Leopard and the other with microsoft.This morning I turned on my Macbook Pro and it will not boot into Snow Leopard.

Good Morning,
I have a MacBook Pro 15" and my warranty just ran out! I partitioned my harddrive into two partitions, one with Snow Leopard and the other with microsoft.This morning I turned on my Macbook Pro and it will not boot into Snow Leopard. I shut it off took out the battery, reinstalled the battery. Then I put in the Snow Leopard CD and booted up to disk utility and The Snow Leopard partion would not show up?? I do see the microsoft partion.
I also rebooted holding down the shift key and still no Snow Leopard
Could you please tell me what I can do, what keys do I press on restart any advice to get Snow leopard back.
thank you.

Have you restarted holding down the Opt key? That procedure should give you a gray screen with all of the partitions that exist. Then select the SL partition for boot. Also go to System Preferences and Startup Disk, unlock the lock and select the SL partition as the default boot partition, then relock.

I have been using Safari for years and have always kept it on "private." Starting two days ago, I suddenly found myself unable to log onto my blog and many other sites that I normally log onto when private is set. Why?

I have been using Safari for years and have always kept it on "private." Starting two days ago, I suddenly found myself unable to log onto my blog and many other sites that I normally log onto when private is set. This so annoying, I just switched to Firefox. I don't like Firefox nearly as much as I like Safari. What is happening? How do I fix the problem?
Thank you.

Might be a corrupted database ...
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

I have two airport extremes, one acting as amodem and the other operating in bridge mode. The extremes are connected using ethernet, but remain connected even when I disconnect the Cat5a cable. How do I know if they are operating wired or wirelessly

I have two airport extremes, one acting as a modem and the other operating in bridge mode. The extremes are connected using ethernet, but remain connected even when I disconnect the Cat5a cable (I did this to check that the 100 feet of Cat 5a cable connecting them was working). How do I find out if they are operating wired or wirelessly? I want to know as I assume I will get much better speeds if they are wired.

Hi Bob, many thanks for the prompt response. I think I did what you suggested, but you're the expert so I have sent over a few screenshots. The extreme in question is High Birches Home Office (the rest of the network has been in place and working well for some time). My new home office is going to be in the garden, circa 100 feet from the main house. I have installed armoured Cat5e cable down to the shed that is going to be adjacent to the home office once built and situated the High Birches Home Office Airport Extreme there temporarily. Everything works well, so I was surprised when I unplugged the ethernet, that it still worked. I also tested the ethernet cable by switching off my laptop's wifi and unplugging the cable from the airport extreme and directly into the laptop and that worked ok.
If the screenshots below (I did every Airport utility tab for the High Birches Home Office) don't tell you anything more, then the set-by-step instructions would greatly appreciated so I can ensure I completed the steps correctly.
Many
Thanks, Greg.
