If its either please _DO NOT_ try fixing it on your own because you may *void your warranty*! If your having difficulty with either mentioned causes I asked about above then follow the steps on the link below.

Or better yet take the ipod to a local apple store for them to look at it or back to the place where you bought it.

I only hear music through one earphone

Excuse me of the bad English.
When I try to listen to music on my Nokia Lumia 520 only 1 earphone makes sound. My question is why does this happen and what can I do to fix it?

depends on the issue.
1. make sure that yo have the headset completely plugged in.
if that doesnt fix it, then i would go back to where you purchased the device and see if you can exchange the headset as it may be defective.

For some reason , when i restore my iphone 4s to factory settings my headphones work when listening to music or youtube videos but when i backup my information onto it , it only comes out of one ear bud and i just got a new one from the apple store.

It doesn't matter what it is in your backup that's causing the problem because you can not selectively restore things from your backup. It's all or nothing.
Set you phone up as a new device and start over.

When watching a slideshow I could always access music from my iTunes folder. Suddenly today I can only hear music under the 'theme' tab. I can see my music in iTunes but when I double click on it nothing happens!

In iTunes go File -> Library -> Organise Library -> Reorganise Library.
Then quit and restart iPhoto.

Only getting audio in one ear?

Hello,
I am a singer/songwriter using adobe with hopes of capturing a live recording of myself singing and playing guitar at the same time. I want to then upload the file to youtube. I have one condensor microphone (Bluebird by blue microphones) hooked up into an interface and when I playback the recording captured I am only hearing audio in my left ear. I am operating on a mac with osx and using adobe premiere elements 11. From what I read, I need to convert the stereo to mono but I don't think this is possible to do on this program. I have read where I need to hit fill left/ fill right but I've been unable to find those features. If anyone knows anything or has any recommendations for how to hear audio in two ears when you have captured in with one microphone then please help!

I can only hear sound from one side of the head phone

I've plug in my bass guitar through a cord and a converter in the line in port on my PC. Then checked 'listen to this device' (head phone) which is connected properly as it worked perfectly when I play any sound in ma PC. But when I play my guitar, I can
only hear it from one side of the head phone. How to fix it!?

Is that compatible to give output from both sides (R + L) ? Can you check same thing on other system ?

IPod only playing music through one earphone

My ipod (5th gen) is only playing music through one earphone! Its definitely not the earphones because they work perfectly fine in my iphone. What could the problem be?

first off try a different set of headphones, just because they work in x doesn't mean they will work in y. Second try cleaning it- blowing in it, compressed air, more than likely there's a piece of lint or dirt stuck in there. reset, update or restore the ipod. at your own risk you could check to see that all internal connections are seated properly as these zif connectors can come loose. if nothing you probably need a new audio jack

Sound only coming out of one ear.

So recently my ipods sound has only been coming out of one ear. I thought it was the headphones so I bought a new pair but it's still not working. Any ideas?

It is a bad contact between the iPod earphone jack with the plug.
Consider setting up a mail-in repair for your iPod http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
Or visit your local Apple Retail Store http://www.apple.com/retail/
In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ or ifixit at your own risk

http://www.ifixit.com/ - if you good to deal with small part of electronic device, just buy the part from this company and replace by yourself

Airport Express only plays music through one stereo speaker.

I have my stereo system connected to an airport express through a monster cable. It only ever plays through one speaker. If I connect my iPod to the stereo through the same monster cable connection it plays through both speakers. Does anyone have any idea why music only plays through one speaker when I play it wirelessly through airport express? Thanks.

HOW TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM
(if your airport is out of warranty, you don't want to pay for a repair, and you don't mind how it looks)
After reading many forums about this, it seems that the problem is a simple design one - the connector in the headphone jack input is a bit badly thought out; it bends out of connection easily, and there is nothing to spring it back into place. So, after a bit of usage and plugging/unplugging jacks in, it bends far enough to stop the connection.
It can be (sort of) easily fixed...
What you need is a small screwdriver and a hammer.
Pries the casing open (this will partly destroy it forever) by hammering in the screwdriver into the gap in the casing. Do this gradually at various points all around it until it start to come apart.
You will then be able to open in (partially)
If you look inside there is a connector that needs to be disconnected so that the two halves can come apart. disconnect this.
Next, unscrew all the screws you can see (using a 00 philips head screwdriver) These screws both hold the circuitry to the case and a metal dividing plate over the headphone/printer/ethernet jacks.
Pull the metal cover off (the cover that covers the components)
You will then see a circuit board that contains the headphone jack, carefully remove this (It is connected by a removable connector.)
You now have the headphone input and it's circuitry in your hand.
You will notice that the H-P input has a small metal case around it. Carefully prise this off.
Now you see a yellow sticker and underneath this - THE OFFENDING ITEM (BAD CONNECTOR)
Peel the sticker off carefully (you need to put it back on afterwards)
Push the connector into the H-P Input - make sure you bend it and it pokes out in the H-P hole so it will make a nice connection.
Put it all back together again.
Wrap it in duck tape or selotape (as the case is now a bit broken)
That's it - that's all you have to do!
Music in both channels!!
Did this with mine and it works perfectly now - just be careful with the circuit boards when taking apart.

HT201401 Only hearing sound from one headphone?

I only receive sound through one headphone, but have tried different headphones and the same problem exists. Any ideas on fixing the problem?

(Found this by another user)
"You simply need a replacement headphone jack. The problem is one of the contacts in your headphone jack (the metal that touches the plug on your headphones) got bent/damaged/etc. Replacing the headphone jack should do the trick.
You can probably get it sent somewhere for servicing as well. You also have various options of trading it in or selling it, etc.

Ear buds only have sound in one ear

I have only I ear bud with sound. If I pull out the jack a little sound comes out of both but very hard to do this and is not right

So what would you like us to do? Bring them in to Apple and exchange them!

Only hear sound from one speaker

I have been going nuts trying to find help on this. There were some but not exactly the same. So here is my dilemma.
I am capturing miniDV footage from my camera (Sony DVR PC 330) and used a Sennheiser MKE 300 Shotgun Video Camera Mike to capture audio. Then I captured in into FCE and also Toast 6. Both only produced audio on the left side. Now I checked the speakers, used headset and it was the same. I listened to iTunes and audio from other sources and both speakers and headset worked fine on both sides. Only bringing in from my camera did the sound from only the left speaker. So it's my camera or external mic. Well, I checked that too and I listened to the tape with headsets and heard everything fine on both sides. So the tape has all the audio. So could it be that the firewire is bad? Or is there something I have overlooked. Last week I imported a CD into FCE and produced a CD of audio that was fine. So the program is not at fault I would think. Any ideas would be great.

Panning on audio . . . . .>
The panning is set all the way to the left and shows -1. But this is the default setting. As when you click the little red (x) it will go to the left. And I just opened another project that works fine and it is all the way left with -1. If I move that sequence it sound less full with not bass or something, it just isn't right. So not sure this is the solution. And now I have to go out of town for a few days so will look forward to any other thoughts you all have when I return. Keep thinking

Can only hear sound out of one ear in iPod 30gb

My nephew can only hear sound from one ear of his headphones.
1) he's not becoming deaf and we've tried multiple pairs of headphones that give the SAME result.
2) the volume settings are correct, so its not that.
What are the options here? Is there a known fix? If its a hardware issue, can Apple do anything (free under warranty or repair with charge)?
Thank you for your help!

maybe that the file only offers one audio track. have tried other players to play it?

IPhone sound jack, only hear one ear

iPhone 4, OS 5.1.1 only hear sound from one ear bud, had headphone jack replaced same problem. was recommended to back up and restore and see if that works. Any thoughts?

Ok, but make sure you push down firmly. Sometimes the last "bump" is a little hard to get over when inserting your earphones. If you're sure it is, you may want to try another pair of earphones/headphones to make sure it's the phone that's the problem. Otherwise, you can try restoring your phone, first using your backup. If that fails you'll have to save as much of your data as possible and restore it as a new phone, without using your backup. If the problem remains after restoring as a new phone then you'll have to make an appointment to take it to the Apple store for evaluation as it may be a hardware problem. Be sure to back it up first in case it has to be replaced.
