The headphones does not seem to connect to my computer, it does connect to my iphone though. When i plug it in, it appears as not plugged in when i check audio management.

most head phones there two wires. those are the two that you most likly put together. if there is any metel mesh covering the wires. that has to be connected also.

it certainly could be repaired. just requires a new connector and some soldering expertise. unsure of any 'store' or 'vendor' that one could walk into for such a repair. depening on how much they cost it may or may not be worth pursuing repair from the manufacturer. perhaps you have a friend who can solder? then you may be able to get the connector at a store such as radio shack.
alternative - it wont be pretty, but if you have a compatible connector from some other unused or broken headphones or cable - you could cut off that connector (keeping some length of wire to work with)
-separate the 2 wires (both from the new connector and from the headphones) and strip back the the insulation on them, about 1" or so.
-unwrap the shield and twist it to keep the stands together
-this should reveal another insulated wire - strip this one back about 0.5"
-join the matching wires from the 2 parts (4 total connections) take care to arrange the wires so that none of the bare wire parts touch each other - use tape (preferably electrical tape) to cover them individually to achieve this.
-test it out.

Cut the ******** and replace it with a new one. You will need to solder the wires on to the new one. Keep the old one, cut it open and it will tell you which wires go to which terminal.
Testimonial: "Thanks - I suspected it might come to that and I'll probably try it."
