Wow, I need replacement soft ear buds for my headphones Apple doesnt sell them?

My dog managed to handle all three sets of the soft ear buds that have come with my Apple ear buds without damaging the ear phones themselves.  I contact live support on the site who tells me to call apple care.  I call Apple Care, and after a nice 10 minute wait I get a rep, who puts me on hold for another 6 minutes only to tell me they dont have them, I need to do a google search to buy aftermarket versions.
I love apple, I have apple laptops, and desktops.  I have every iphone and ipod they have put out.  I even buy their peripherals.  Its hard to believe something as easily lost as these little solicone tips are not supplied by Apple anywhere to replace them.
Today I am truly disappointed by Apple! =(
Does anyone know where I can get a set of replacements?

This has already been answered, see this thread: Replacement parts for the new apple...: Apple Support Communities
And if I had to buy headphones again I would by the same Apple in ears, they are great!

  • In Ear buds for Gym use

    Hey!
    My wife is currently lamenting the passing of her FOURTH pair of 'Sennheiser cx300's in ear buds' in under 2 years!
    My personal experience of Sennheiser has been excellent to say the least.I had a pair of CX300's for over 2 years before they failed,and presently am very satisfied with my CX500's.They are pretty robust and reliable,as were my 300's.
    It mustn't be coincidence that my wife regularly uses hers at the Gym.Which leads me to suspect that perspiration(didn't wanna type sweat.....doesn't look nice!) is compromising the units.
    With that in mind,can anyone who also worships their temple, recommend a hardy(waterproof?) set of buds.Might also mention I've been footing the bill each time they go!!
    Don't want to spend too much hahaha they aint for me!
    Cheers,
    John

    Sorry, I can't be of much help with your problem, but I couldn't resist---- you say YOU are "footing the bill" each time for your wife's earbuds--- I have only one question. Does your wife contribute nothing to your relationship? Earn no money? or clean your house? or take care of your children? Or cook your meals? Do your laundry? If so, how dare you say that she deserves less than you do? Ok, meant no harm, your wording just left me with a bad taste.

  • Replacement parts (ear buds)

  • Will Apple Replace the ear buds?

    Today for the first time in a great while I used my iPod. After about 20 mins, the left speaker cut out. I do not know if it blew, or if the wires shorted... I do not blast my iPod because I have sensitive ears, etc... I bought the extended warranty for my iPod, but before I do anything, does Apple replace them, or do I have to pay an outrageous $30.00 for another pair? I prefer to get Apple earbuds because of the matching colors, and the "quality". Thanks!

    I've gone through like 3 sets of Apple earbuds and all because one side cut out. Don't waste your money on those things. They have bad sound, they're too expensive for what they are, and the new ones are just plain uncomfortable. I bought the Bose On-ear headphones and they're so much better. It's also a big waste of time to wait for them to come by mail. I highly suggest getting something a little better than those bottom-of-the-line earbuds. And really, if you don't believe me about them having uncool sound, just go to the local Apple store and try out the Bose headphones compared to the Apple earbuds. And I doubt the sides will cut out.

  • Ear buds for black video ipod

    I was wondering, are the earbuds that come with the black ipod supposed to be white? I assumed that becasue the ipod was black, so the earbuds would be too. Does anyone know anything about this? Also, does anyone know if the apple care plan can be transferred from one ipod to a newer one?

    Yes the earbuds are supposed to be white for black and white iPods; and about your Applecare question I don't think you can transfer it from one iPod to another but you can transfer it to a new owner if you were to sell you iPod.

  • Need to Turn On Mac for Sharing on Apple TV?

    If I want to share my videos or photos from my Macbook to Apple TV, do I need to turn on my Mac since all my videos/photos are located in the Airport Disk?
    If my Mac has to turn on in order to have sharing function, do I need to log in my Mac or can I just let it in standby mode?
    Because I want to let my kids to watch the video when I am at work, but my grand ma doesn't know how to turn on a Mac. Then, I can turn my Macbook on and close the lid.
    Thanks.

    yes, itunes needs to be on and running

    itunes needs be active, so your mac needs to be awake.

    closing the lid would put it to sleep, thus itunes would no longer be active.
    Thanks.

  • I need a new graphics card for my iMac Apple will not sell me one so I can repair it myself, help

    my graphics card as gone on my iMac Apple will not sell me one so that I can repair it myself, any suggestions

    not sure which iMac you have but since the old 24" model the video card is not a separate board but a part of the main board so to fix it you would have to buy a smd gpu chip and solder the smd legs manually few people can manage such  feat the only leg compatible gpu chips would work of cause in which case it would be more of a nvidia or amd having to sell you the gpu chip then apple as apple don't make gpu chips

  • Is there an earbud adaptor or some way to use the iphone ear buds when your ears are too small for them to fit?

    My ears are too small for the iPhone earbuds or any Apple ear buds for that matter. I would like a converter kit to use the ear speakers with a head strap, or ear hook. Does this exist or do I get to invent it? I have 3 sets of the Apple products and they are usless to me.

  • Radio remote destroyed my Apple Ear Buds

    Hi
    I was using my apple ear buds for 4 months now, all he sudden after i got the radio remote, the left ear bud's volume dropped by 2 db, that is allot, not to mention bass frequencies out of phase now.
    I can say from 16 years of recording records that the ear buds have been damaged, and i can not see how it was due to excessive volume but something with the remote, or maybe just was a matter of time due to the quality of the materials.
    My ear buds, i have ONE question, will apple replace them of they have not a scratch?
    http://store.apple.com/Catalog/US/Images/lmaltviewm9394ga.jpg

    Apple will replace them if they are still under
    warranty.
    http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
    This is the iPod warranty, not the ear buds.
    I wonder how i will have to go about this.

  • Skype not recognizing Ear buds plugged in?

    Hi there..! 
    I've used Skype for years now, and havn't had a problem like this before (Or at least i can't remember having one such as this). I plug in my Ibuds or whatever Apple calls them, and skype dosen't respond, or notice they're plugged in. I can hear through them (Both skype sounds, music, youtube, ect.), but they seem to be cancling my mic. Now, as anybody with them knows, they themselves (the earbuds) do not have a mic. I'm trying to use the built-in-mic, but it's not working (It works if i unplug the earbuds, though). 
    When i go to change the audio settings (Both in-skype, and in my computer settings), it dosen't show anything other than the built-in mic & speakers (I find it odd, because the sound is comeing through my earbuds). I have tried to go through it from both in-call options, and out of call, through my control panle, and through useing %Run%. 
    I have Windows 8, have an Intel b960 processor, Gateway brand laptop. I have a thing to plug in headphones and one for a mic, or i can also use one with a USB plug-in. I'm only plugging the ear-buds into the headphone spot, the others are empty. 
    Untill late lastnight, i was useing a headset that used a USB and a headphone plug-in. 
    I'm not sure what to add onto this, other than i have been looking for an awnser for the past hour, and havn't found one, but it's probably something pretty eazy to fix and i just don't know how. 

    Your mic should not be cancelling when  you plug in ear/head phones into a standard jack.  usually that only happens when you plug in something to a mic jack or a combined mic/headphone jack.  In any case the control is generally a feature of the sound drivers and not Skype itself.  If your computer is using the IDT chipset you will probably have fiddle with the settings as most of their options use reverse logic.  If it uses the Realtek chipset you can usually seperate/split the inputs to combat issues with it automatically toggling your onboard mic on/off.  On my machine that setting is under "Device advanced settings" in the "Realtek HD Audio Manager" found in "Control Panel".
