TS3274 No sound in left headphone (it's not the headphones!)

I've read a lot of other support questions on here about the exact same issue which leads me to believe this might be an OS issue. Basically my headphones do not work on the left side (only on my first gen iPad!). They work fine on everything else. I've reset the iPad by holding down the sleep and apple key together for 10 secs, that doesn't work. I've checked both accessibility and sound settings and the stereo settings are in the middle so no probs there but still I have no sound in my left earphone.
Please help!

Looks like nobody knows how to fix a headphone jack on here then?..........
I went to the Genius bar in Cardiff St Davids 2 shopping centre. The guy who saw me checked the headphones and said 'Yep, we can fix it for you for £199" to which my reply was "errrr - doesn't a 2nd hand iPad cost less than that?..."
so thanks Apple - thanks for nothing

  • No sound in left headphone

    This is my first macbook.
    Mine is Macbook Pro 13" 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5.
    OS is OS X 10.6.8.
    It was ok at the beginning but there has been no sound in left headphone from the some point which I don't remember.
    My headphone works fine when it is connected to other devices like iPhone.
    And left/right balance on Sys Pref is also in center.
    This is very irritating for me.
    Did anyone have the same problem and fix it?

    sorry i am not so good with computers etc so this is maybe not help to you but this is just telling my experience=)
    I had the same thing which happened but on my ipod and i took it to the apple store, and the person told me there are 2 connectors in the socket one for each earphone, and one was knocked out of place so they gave me a new iPod
    maybe they will do the same for your macbook=)

  • Loss of sound in left headphone.

    I bought an 80g classic 2 weeks ago and a few days ago i lost sound in my left headphone. I switched headphones to see if my headphones was the proble and still no sound in the left one and assumed its an iPod problem. Is there any way to fix this problem? or do i go to Bestbuy and exchange it for a new one?? Thanks.

    Only two weeks old? Go back and exchange it. Since you've already tested the headphones, there's nothing you can do that would not void the warranty.

  • I cannot get my new 5S to emit a sound when people call in. Not the "Do not Disturb".

    Whatever I have done to the 5S phone or something within it, I cannot get it to emit a noise when people call in.
    I have read recent blogs but to no avail - theproblem still exists.
    What to do?

    In the control panel is the moon black or white it should be black On side of iphone is the mute button set to red? Go to sounds and pick another ring tone are the volume button tuned up If it still will not work Try a Reset press power button & menu button hold both down together Until you see the Apple Logo you will not lose any data.

  • Sound messed up right channel only not the headphones

    Anybody else have this problem: When headphones are plugged all the way into the jack only the right channel works. Pull the headphones slightly out of the jack and the left channel works. Both channels sound a little faded. Tried other headphones and same problem.

    yea i have the same case, i was thinking that might have been a problem. yea i have to send mine back again the second time for the same problem. I think if Ipod just made them right in the fist place mabey they could save some money on all the returns. good luck with your ipod. and remember if you send it back more than 3 times apple sometimes gives you some free loot.

  • Strange!  Loops sound bizarre in Loop Browser - but not the original CD

    Hi,
    Just bought Jazz Essentials from Beta Monkey Music... Apple Loops from a Third Party. I put in the CD - and dragged all the folders at once into the Apple Loops Browser. Took awhile to copy...
    All the loops sound like they are going through a gated reverb or a delay - really bizarre - and not very pretty to listen to. Yet, when I listen to samples from the CD - no reverb - and no bizarre-ness.
    Suggestions? I probably should drag one folder at a time - right? But, if so - how do I delete all these bad loops now?
    Thanks in advance!

    You won't believe this - it's still not working!!!!
    Still sounds bizarre - I did everything you said... thanks anyways...
    This is so strange!
    There is a "full sample" with each new set of samples - in other words - the original 3 minutes sample that the smaller, cut up samples were taken from: these 'full' samples sound FINE... it's the cut up ones that sound strange as heck.
    Remember - they sound fine on the CD... so odd.

  • I have no sound on some of the apps I have on my I pad, I have sound on videos, music etc but not the apps.....any suggestion ?.

    Try this:

  • How do I stop the iMessage conversation from automatically showing when I go into the I message center? I only want the contacts to show down the left side and nothing on the right until I select a conversation to view.

    HOW DO I STOP THE WHOLE IMESSAGE CONVERSATION FROM AUTOMATICALLY SHOWING WHEN I GO INTO IMESSAGE? I only want the contact bar on the left to show and not the whole conversation, until I pick one to see.

    You can't. You can sign out of messages and turn it off, but you can't do what you would like to do. You can send feedback to Apple.

  • No sound, not the MIDI problem

    No sound in Safari 3.0.2, NOT the MIDI resetting problem.
    sound prefs are set correctly.
    help appreciated.

    Hi
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Another possible remedy is to open Garage Band, if it is installed on your system. Then restart the computer/Safari and see if the sound returns.

  • No sound from left speaker headphone out

    Suddenly no sound coming from left speaker through headphone output only. Records in stereo plays in stereo but no sound on left. Tried all the usual suspects ....no luck.  Any suggestions

    Nowhere near enough information to go on, really. If this is a switched socket and the speaker works when it's not connected, then there's either a socket fault or a headphone fault.  Try it with another pair of headphones and see if it still happens. If it doesn't, you have faulty headphones. If it does, then you have some sort of a wiring or socket fault.

  • TS1574 Sound only from Left Headphone w/ MacBook Pro

    Any external headphone that I use with my 13" Macbook Pro, the sound only comes out of the left headphone. The slider in my System Preferances is in the middle, and the headphones are all the way into the jack. Any ideas?

    Often resetting the settings helps.
    Syst.Preference > Sound > Output > External
    Try Reset SMC.

  • There is a problem with the left headphone or stereo  headphone jack connection in the ipod touch 2nd generation

    I have had my ipod touch 2nd generation for 3 yrs. Now its been a year with this problem but i never seem to get it fixed because i lost my warranty and repair certificate a year ago. So  the problem is whenever I put in a headphone jack for some reason only the right head phone or right speaker works not the left, but when i place the ipod on the docking port both speakers on my stereo work.
    Now I have taken great care of this thing. Never lost it. I assume that a connection inside the jack port is pushed in from debrie (forgot how to spell that word)  because, I always place my ipod into my pocket. The only way to get the left speaker or headphone to work is to push on the headphone jack so it tilts, then the left speaker works; but when i release it the left speaker or headphone turns off or stop making sound. So i know its not wiring problems its the connection for the headphone jack to the ipods jack's connection for the left speaker. Though microphones work.
    My question is can this be a DIY or do i have to take it in to a local apple store. Problem i lost the warranty and protection repair form or license 2 years ago. I have had no problems with my ipod at all these years until this problem has consisted to happen since last year.
    Anything?
    Thanks,

    - If you want to replace the headphone jack yourself see:
    iPod Touch Repair - iFixit
    - Apple will only exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price, You get a new battery.  However, it may not be worth it for a 2G iPod.

  • Sound from speakers & headphones is monaural NOT stereo HP Pavilion TS 15 Notebook PC Win 8.1

    My HP Pavilion TS 15 Notebook PC  is only 2 weeks old I found out soon after I got it that any test I do of the left and right speakers or headphones is not stereo.   When I click on the left speaker I hear the sound in the center and when I click on the right speaker I hear the sound in the center.  I have tried a test from the internet same results.   However, if I connect a bluetooth audio device then when I click on the left speak I hear the sound on the left only and when I click on the right speaker I hear the sound in the in the right only.  Also when I boot the computer with Ubuntu 13.10 there is stereo distinct sounds from either the left or right when I run the left right test. 
    At first and before I installed Ubuntu HP was sure it was a hardware problem and sent a tech out to install a circuit board which the headphone plug was on, thinking the jack was defective and mixing the left and right channels.   That didn't fix it.  I went to the Realtek website and ran their program which removed all traces of the sound driver and installed the newest one they had, didn't help.    Hp log into my computer and cruised around but found nothing wrong.   I have played with every sound setting there is, no change.   The final solution they suggest is to reinstall Windblows 8.1.  I really don't want to do this as I just did it to transfer from my win 7 notebook to this one using windows easy transfer.   FYI this computer is one HP sent me to replace the previous G6 Win 7 notebook which had unresolvable problems, worse than that this is the 3rd computer HP has send me to replace previous ones which each had their own set of unresolvable problems.  So I haven't had very good luck with HP computers!
    Anyway I am left with maybe a couple possibilities.   1. Reload windblows, I cannot use easy transfer because it no longer works on win 8.1 (maybe file history will work though I'm not sure)   2. Try windows refresh which won't remove as much of what I have installed.   3. Maybe someone has experienced a similar problem and can share here.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Michael
    UPDATE:
    HP wanted me to do a clean reinstallation of Win 8.1, sent me the disks to do it, but the disks were defective and wouldn't go on to the second disk.   I used the Disks I had made from the computer they worked and the reinstallation was completed.   That didn't resolve the problem!   They decided to send me a replacement computer.
    The new computer is a  HP ENVY TS 15 Notebook PC with win 8.1 updated.   Same problem except the speakers seem to be in stereo but the headphone jack is still mono.   I chatted with HP last evening and was told this is a "Known problem and the fault of Windows 8.1"    Can someone tell me if this is true?    I have doubts but really want to know.
    Michael

    Hp replaced this computer for me due to this problem, however, the Envy (dumb name) they sent me to replace it had the same problem.   I did fine a solution and here is the web address http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-PC-Sound-and-Audio/envy-17-headphones-in-mono-not-stereo/td-p/...
    Read down a few posts for the solution by making changes to the registry.   But, my problem and the solution was with a win 8.1 computer and I do not know it it applies to Win 7.  Unless, you have the same sound card and driver, which I doubt.  If you haven't removed the sound card driver and reinstalled it with the one on the HP website do try that.
    Good luck.

  • Volume too low on left headphones

    I have had my iPod for about 3 months, and yesterday, it suddenly lowered the volume only on the left headphone. I have restored and updated the iPod, but it hasn't fixed the problem. I also increased the sound volume, etc. but that only made the right headphone too loud, and the left headphone only a little louder. I am concerned that there is something wrong with the jack -- but it is only 3 months old. I hope this isn't a sign that this purchase was a mistake... Any ideas?
