Yeah, I have a 120GB iPod Classic Silver, in great condition, and recently it started playing only out of the left ear if my over-ear headphones. At first I thought it was my headphones because earlier the right side also cracked a little, but when I tested my headphones on my friend's iPod they worked normally. Then I tried her Apple earbuds on my iPod and the same problem occured. Any suggestions? I really don't want to buy a new iPod, I just don't see the point.
Oh! I really know the answer to this one! :]
I JUST had this happen to me. I have a 30gb ipod video and the same exact thing was always happening to me. I kept thinking it was the headphones, but alas, after searching it up online, I found that the headphone can just go bad! How terrible. It can happen if there is too much stress in the jack.. I think that was my problem because when I go to school, my ipod is always in my pocket and that means that when I bend down, my ipod is left with a pair of headphones that are straining the jack.. Soo... I purchased a replacement off ebay for 3 dollars. I was VERY surprised at how very SIMPLE it was to replace the jack, and I'm only 16 and have had no experience in that sort of thing. I used http://www.co-bw.com/iPod_Headphone_Jack_Repair.htm and http://www.ipodhowtovideo.com/video/videoheadphonereplacement.html the hardest part was just opening the dang thing haha. Well, just make sure you buy a 120gb headphone jack because they make different ones for different gbs.
