The left channel is by default the LEFT/MONO channel.  If all your music
showed up in the left channel only, then you weren't using a stereo cable
somewhere in your connections to the IN jack on the computer.

Check again to make certain the Left and Right OUTs on the boom box are
going into a stereo plug.  A stereo 1/8 mini plug will have 2 black bands on
the shank of the metal plug.  If you only see 1 black band, then it's a MONO
plug.

(Just adding a visual clue here to Richard's remarks to determine if you are
using Stereo or MONO cables.)
