question about earbuds

2015-06-20 Thread Jordan Norregaard
Earlier, I was listening to some awesome EDM (techno) on Sirius xm
radio! The Electric Daisy Carnival is live for two more nights from
Vegas, but I digress. Is there a way to insert the apple earbuds in my
head...so they stay in my head?  My new earpods broke, but luckily I
found two spair older, first generation sets. Is there a little
science to putting them in your ears just the right way? I'll also ask
the same  question about the  new earpods for newbies of iPhones...any
tips?  Is there one proscribed way of insertion into the ears?

Re: question about earbuds

2015-06-20 Thread Ann Smith
As much as I love Apple products, I'm not really keen on their earbuds. My very 
first iPhone, the air buds broke after eight weeks. And they wanted $30 for 
those stupid earphones. Currently, I'm using the JVC marshmallow earbuds. I 
bought them from eBay for only 1999 with shipping and no tax.
I've had these your buds for going on a year now. They come in all different 
colors to match your phone, too. They also come with two spare cushions to put 
over the ends of the earbuds. Please don't go inside of your ear canal very far 
either.
Sorry about that, please don't go in your ears very far. They have a little 
microphone inside of them too so you can make phone calls or do dictation. As 
far as any other earbuds, I always put the flat side against the flat part of 
my ear and inserted them.

RE: question about earbuds

2015-06-20 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Jordan,

Put a small amount of crazy glue around the edge of your ear pods, then insert 
and leave in permanenly *smile*. OK, joking aside, it appears that some people 
really like thhe Apple Earpods and others don't like them at all. I assume that 
anatomically some ears just are not holding them in, I personally find they 
stay in really good for me, I can tilt my head to the side and shake it and 
they still won't fall out. The new ear pods definitely are a lot nicer than the 
original ones. I find it works best for me if I put them in with the cable 
pointing forward sort of horizontally and then I give them a sort of quarter 
turn down so the cable is pointing down. For me it almost seems that more or 
less "screws" them into my ear.

I have had ear pods break on me, but I also do use them a lot and what I would 
call "hard". I often wear them when I am doing things and sometimes I get the 
cable hooked on something and pull out the ear pods either from my ears or the 
plug out of the phone, but if you have Apple Care and they don't work any more 
I either go to an Apple Store if I happen to be near one or I call Apple and 
get a free replacement. I believe with Apple Care you get 2 free replacements 
and that just about pays for most of what the Apple Car plan costs..


Regards,
Sieghard

Re: question about earbuds

2015-06-20 Thread Destene Noller
Hi Jordan,

I don't know if this will help you, but did you realize that there is a proper 
way to put in your Earbuds?  By this I mean that there is a right and a left 
Earbud.  The bud on the side with the volume control part goes in your right 
ear.  I didn't know this for a long time, but one day my husband and I were 
discussing why I could never seem to keep my Earbuds from falling out.  He 
watched how I put them in, and said that he thought he saw my problem.  
Apparently at least the newer ones are marked for sighted people.  Anyway, hope 
this helps!

I started with an iPhone 4 and those ear buds were mostly okay, however, I 
accidently left them in a pocket and washed them, definitely not recommended as 
they never worked again.  I took the ones my husband had with his 5 and am 
still using them, however, they do fall out easily.  I really don't like ear 
buds but they fit in my purse, are easy to wear if one is not moving around and 
have served me will this past year when I have been away from home or in the 
hospital.  I preferred the older style but ...

Personally, I find the newer earpods to be more comfortable than the
older version. The microphone is handy as well.  That said, I wish
they wern't so incredibly bass heavy, had less of a peak around 500
Hurtz, and less of a role off in the treble. But what do you expect for
probably pennies per unit? (grin)

I also find them better than the originals. Except, I cannot keep them in my

such a slick plastic I may have to take Sieghard's suggestion and try a dab
of glue.
