Only receiving sound out of right ear bud on a recently activated I tunes account.. I phone 4

Hey there Stowe Away,
It sounds like your headphones that came with the phone only work on the right side. I recommend these steps from the article named:
Troubleshooting iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch accessories
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2634
3. Disconnect and Restart
Disconnect the accessory and turn it off, if possible. Restart iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad by turning it off and then back on. When the Home screen reappears, reconnect the accessory.
4. Isolate
Isolate the issue to the accessory, if possible. Or, if available, try to reproduce the issue with another identical or similar accessory.
6. Restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to its factory default state. You should rarely need to use this step with an accessory issue. If the issue only affects a third-party accessory, contact the manufacturer before restoring the device.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

  • Only getting sound out the right side speaker

    Just this morning, I realised that I am only getting sound out the right side (built-in) speaker on my iMac 24 inch.
    Any ideas as to why/how this is happening. It was working fine last night.
    Do I have to take it in for repair??

    thanks- yes that was the answer!
    god knows how i altered the setting. must have been a keyboard short-cut and i did it by mistake...!

  • Headphones only provide sound out of one ear phone

    Hi, I've got a 17" flat panel iMac running 10.4.2. I recently purchased a pair of good (Grado SR80) headphones for general use. When I plug them in to the Mac's headphone port, I get sound out of one ear phone only. Nothing out of the other. The supplied Apple speakers work fine, however, with sound from both speakers. Any idea how I can get the phones to play normally? I'm really disappointed. The headphone port couldn't possibly be monoaural could it? Or so underpowered it won't power a pair of phones?

    I only have one pair! The speakers work perfectly on my small JVC mini stereo set (which only has 10W of power). The speakers are plugged into the little speaker port on the iMac (I think the Apple iMac speaker jack is non-standard). The headphones were plugged into the headphone jack. I checked the Audio control panel. The settings are fine.

  • Only getting sound out of one spea

    Okay, so a while ago my speakers crapped out on me and I could only get sound when I used headphones, which was something I tolerated for some time. But now, just recently (after I got a high-speed internet connection, actually), I can only get sound out of the left headphone. Can anyone give me some assistance here? According to the device manager, I have a Creative Sound Blaster AudioPCI 64V...so I'm not sure if I have a Sound Blaster AudioPCI or a Sound Blaster PCI64. Anyway, I tried installing the drivers for the latter, but it didn't help anything. What's the deal, anyone? Does it sound like a sound card issue, or is it perhaps my speakers?

    EverclearFan,
    Did this soundcard come preinstalled in your computer? If so you will need to contact your computer manufacturer for support as the card may be OEM. OEM components are often modified from their retail standards and require special drivers that only the Vendor will have access to.

  • When i have my headphones plugged in i only get sound out of one side

    when I have my headphones plugged in - I can hear out of both earbuds when on a telephone call, but when I switch to music I only get sound out of one ear

    There could be 2 possibilities: the earphone cable to not completely seated, or the earphone connector is defective.

  • 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?

  • I have the Ipod touch and only can hear out the right ear bud

    I have tried numerous ear buds, even when listing to ipod in car, via a cassette adaptor plugged into ipod touch - can only hear out of the right speak.
    I even took back my initial ipod thinking it was defect, but it is happening on this new one as well - any thoughts please?  thank you

    Sounds like the headphone jack in the iPod is defective and needs replacement. Have you tried cleaning the jack?

  • IPod touch audio issue: why do I only get sound from one channel in my ear-pods?

    After upgrading my brand new iPod touch 5th generation to IOS 6.1.2 I only get sound from the right channel of my ear-pods.
    I did not have this issue with IOS 6.1.1. Is this a problem derived from new IOS? Any idea on how to solve it?
    Appreciate your help!

    Have you tried other headphones? If you confirmned it is an iPod problem:
    - 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
    - Reset the iPod. 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 iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • Why do my headphones only play out of right ear when they're perfectly fine?

    my headphones were working fine last night but this morning when I went to listen to music they would only work out of right ear. If anyone knows the solution to this please let me know

    It is very possible there is some type of dirt/debris in the headphone port. Check that area. Also, try unplugging and replugging the headphones, or wiggling them around gently in the port. Does that change things? Do you have a case on the phone? Is the headphone jack fully seated in the port?

  • Audio out jack only plays sound in the right speaker.

    Whenever I plug anything (speakers, earphones, etc.) into the Audio Output jack, it only plays sound through the right speaker/earphone. The left speaker/earphone hardly has any sound at all.
    How should I go about fixing this problem?
    It ***** and it's annoying. At first, I thought it was just my earphones but they work perfectly fine with my iPod and other devices.

    HI Chris,
    my daughter has the ipod touch 4th generation and it started only having sound come out of the right speakers in both of my vehicles.  I read also it could be a broken socket causing it.  Do you know about this?  How does one break a socket and how would I repair that?  The person on y*hoo answers said to either send it to apple refurbished unit or replace it.  Replace it?  Really?  It's a 64 GB ipod touch that I won at work with reward points which is the only reason I could afford it.  Looking for better solution like your's above but I'm worried I will have to send it in.  I was looking on my iphone 4 and noticed the volume balance was under Settings>General>Accessibility so I guess it's different on an ipod touch?

  • [SOLVED] Connecting my guitar to my pc and get sound out?

    I have a guitar and a cable that came with the game Rocksmith for ps3. The cable is a regular guitar cable with a usb out. Is there any software that I could use to get sound out from my pc. When I connect it to my pc, it recognizes my guitar as a microphone.  I searched and all I found was some $500 windows software. Thank you for all the help.

    If you have a decent sound card this might work for processing the guitar sound, but I haven't tried this myself even though I have the cable. It basically depends on what is put out through the usb cable. You might want to install some audio recording software, treat the input as a microphone and see what is being captured.
    However, it is probably a better idea to connect the guitar directly to the sound card with a regular cable (through a mixer or with an adapter). The translation process in the cable will very likely only add latency. A bit more information about what you are trying to accomplish will get you better answers :-)
    I just wanted to get sound out of my computer because I have no amp or any money to buy one right now. I have some nice computer speakers and thought that the cable might work since it is a usb. I'm not using my ps3 because it broke or else I would just use my tv. But thanks for the idea. I'll keep looking around.

  • I only get sound from the computer's speakers even though I put in headphones

    I have for a while now had the problem that I only get sound from the computer's speakers even though i plug in the headphones, I have rebooted the computer but still the same problem occurs. So i thought there might be someting wrong in the settings, when i open the soundsettings and plug in my headphones nothing happens, usually I believe there should be a text appearing that says that the sound is now going to headphones, am I right? any how, it still just sends the sound out to the speakers and there is no option to send it else where then "soundflower 2ch and soundflower 16ch".
    I do have an external sound card, for music recording, that goes through USB, and when i plug that in i get the option to send the sound to that device and also to recive sound and i can also choose if i want to sent it to the computer's speakers. So could it be someting wrong with the headphone jack?

    Good day!
    Thank you for writing to the Dell Community Forum.
    Boot into the System Bios and make sure that Onboard Devices- Integrated Audio is On. Then exit the System Bios saving the change. Once back into Windows, open the Device Manager and make sure that ADI1983 HDA appears under Sound devices. Then re-test the rear green audio jack #4 using headphones. Also, reply to this post with the service tag of the system sent via private message so that I can look into the details of the system and assist you better.
    Have a great day ahead.

  • I am trying to connect my Macbook pro 2010 to my Samsung HDTV using a mini display port to hdtv cable. Trying to play a slide show in IPhoto but I only get sound with no picture. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I keep saying this over and over, in the hope that people who do a search will find it.  Apple cannot possibly test for or be reponsible for the bazillion combinations of adapter, cables, and TV's out there.  The only monitors that are 100% guaranteed to work with the MacBook Pro are the Cinema Displays and Thunderbolt Displays, because, they're made by Apple.  They're expensive, but they work perfectly.
    My guess is that you bought a cheap MDP to HDMI cable, or have a defective one.  From my reading of these boards over the past few months, cheap cables have a high failure rate.  And the regular priced ones have only a slightly less of one.  Try a new one.  Make sure you do not damage the Thunderbolt port.

    The 30-pin connector on the iPhone 4 dock might not have all the connector pins to do video.
    I'm 99% sure the Universal Dock does have the pins (and therefor supports video out).
