Black Wifi Cover

The black little panel on the back of my ipod touch (where I think the wifi antenna is?) seems to be slightly pushed into so that it is not parallel with the metal back starting on the bottom in the middle and deepening as you move to the right towards the corner(enough so that I can feel the unevenness with my fingers and by visually looking at it).
Is this normal? I wouldn't think so. Would this be something I could exchange for a new one, or is it too small of a problem (could they just pop it back out?). Or should I just stop worrying and be happy with it (even though it costs $400). Only thing I am worried about is that this is my 3rd touch (first two had bad screens) so I don't want to take it back and have something wrong with the screen on my next one (assuming that the newer ones still have problems including negative black, pixels, and dust under screen).

I have also noticed this on my iPod touch and also on the edge of the unit just above the wifi antenna the black metal part of the casing does not fit flush to the silver part of the casing. It almost seems as if it's started to come apart!! I've only had it since Thursday so I'll be phoning Apple tomorrow to sort out an exchange.

  • Black Hinge Cover

    I have a small crack on the black hinge cover.  I have never dropped it or bashed it against anything (that I know of).  The crack doesnt cause me any problems but I would like this fixed if possible.  My MBP is less than 1 year old so do you think this will be fixed free of charge by Apple?

    yes, as long it is ruled a manufacturing defect and not something that was caused by the user being negligent.

  • Black album cover image?

    So I just received my Ipod Nano, synching songs works well and all, but when I play a song, the little square for album cover are black for every song.
    Album cover shows up in every program I listen to my mp3 in except on my nano ?!

    Plug in the iPod, uncheck the box to show artwork on the iPod then sync the iPod (all artwork will be removed from the iPod).
    When it is done, reselect that check box and sync the iPod again (all artwork added to iPod).
    This often times clears up display issue with artwork on the iPod.

  • Discoloration (spots) on black macbook cover

    I just opened up my new black MacBook. I noticed about 5 discolored small spots (2mm or so) on the top. They look to be a darker gray color instead of black. Three of them form a triangle. The other two are off by themselves. I would post a picture but they are very difficult to photograph. I will likely exchange it tomorrow and see if the new one has any spots.
    Anybody else see this yet?

    I haven't seen any post about a discolorated cover.
    But definitely you can bring that to apple store and show them side by side with their display model.

  • Black Tie cover RAM/HDD in Optical Drive Upgrades?

    I recently upgraded my macbook pro to 16gb of ram and a seagate momentus xt 750gb in the hdd bay and the original 5400 rpm 750gb hard drive in the optical bay drive with a caddy. I have the BTP Accidental coverage. Everything went well, it is in there safely MBP running good, only a few screws missing in the bottom, but that's just because they were stripped. Part of the bottom is raised a little in one corner, not sure why but it is and everything is running good. If I crack the screen, will they cover it? Or if something happens, will they not fix it because of the upgrades, or the loose/uplifted back?

    You'll need to ask AppleCare.

  • MC769PP/A Ipad 2 black wifi legit or fake?

    I couldn't reach philippine chat customer service.. So im discussing it hear.  When i check the model in settings/general/about this is the serial number that it there.
    So i ask the US chat service apple they said their model number doesn't have /a in their model numbers.. So my question is this device a legit product of the apple? i asked them he said to contact the Philippine apple store. but I bought this secondhand so i don't know if this was originally bought from Philippine apple store.
    Couldt still be possible that different model number by country?

  • Samsung Tab 10.1 WiFi Balck 2014 Edition - Anyconnect and IPSec don't work

    I have an employee with a Samsung Tab 10.1 2014  black wifi only edition tablet. She has tried to use both an IPsec connection and the Anyconnect for ICS+ (and the Anyconnect normal Android client and also the OpenConnect open source alternative to Anyconnect).
    The problematic behavior is the same on any VPN connection. The vpn client connects and then no traffic makes use of it. I can see the VPN session on the firewall and it shows no decrypted/decapsulated packets. Additionally, the tablet loses all internet access once the VPN connects (whether it is IPsec or Anyconnect) even though the VPN is set to use split tunneling (and I can see in the connection details that it is only set to tunnel a couple of /24 networks in the 10.x.x.x range).
    I have at least 20 other users that use the same VPN session groups with a variety of Windows, iOS and Android devices and so far, this Samsung tablet is the only problem.
    I have tried different accounts on this tablet and I have tried this employee's account on other devices and the problem remains only on the tablet. Her account works great logging in on my Samsung Galaxy S4 using both IPsec and Anyconnect client software. My account shows the same problem as her account when used on her tablet.
    I have applied all available updates on her tablet, it is currently running Android 4.4.2 and there are no updates available from Samsung for it.
    My phone is running 4.4.4 but the client app versions are the same on both devices.
    She has even exchanged the tablet for a replacement of the same model.
    Can anyone suggest any additional troubleshooting or cause for this problem?
    Basically it is as if the vpn client software works fine but the Android operating system simply ignores it except to stop all internet access.

    The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support.
    If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

  • How do I get the charging port cover open on my I-pad, so that I can insert the charger?

    I'm trying to connect an Ipad to a USB charger (30 pin, I believe) there is a little black plastic cover over what appears to be the charging port. How do I get this to open ?

    There is no charging port cover on the iPad. Do you have a case on your iPad? It may have a cover. If so, you'll need to consult any documentation that came with the case.

  • What is the best way to extend a Virgin wifi network in a thick walled house?

    I have a Virgin Netgear wifi router in a downstairs room at home and get a relatively poor signal in adjacent rooms and none in non-adjacent rooms (i.e. at least one intervening room); it is an old (deep) victorian house with many small rooms!
    If I wanted to use Airport Express as a solution, would I need to plug one AE unit into the router and then have one in an adjacent room and then another in the next adjacent room, and so on, creating a "chain" to extend the wifi signal, or would I be better off with a plug-in wifi extending solution via the electric ring mains?  For the latter option, I note that I have separate electric circuits for downstairs and upstairs plug sockets (as I believe is normal in most UK homes).
    If I do go for an AE chain, I presume that teh lasta nd intervening AE units woudl provide wifi cover?
    I am new to Apple and to computer technical issues (having just retired) and so no longer have access to office IT folk.
    Thanks in advance.

    Apple's extend a wireless network feature works like the hub and spokes of a wheel. The "main" AirPort Express would be the "hub", so it would need to be located in a central area in the home. Other AirPorts....located at the end of separate "spokes".....could extend the wireless signal.
    Each extender must communicate directly to the "hub"....not to another device at the end of another "spoke", so your idea of a "chain" to extend the wireless network signal would simply not work.
    Since you have thick walls, it is also unlikely that a wireless setup....even with devices placed at optimum locations....would allow the network to perform well.
    The best solution in situations like this is always to run Ethernet cabling to other routers from a main router. This way, devices can be located in the exact areas where they are needed to provide more wireless coverage.
    Ethernet powerline adapters might be an option if you cannot run the Ethernet cabling.  In theory, you already have the wiring in place, you just need the adapters.
    In practice, things do not always work as well as the theory might suggest.  The bottom line with devices like this is that you cannot know how well.....or if.....they will work until you try them out in your home. Older wiring may not accommodate these devices.
    For these reasons, you would want to understand the store's return policy to test a couple of adapters to see how well they perform at various locations around the house.
    If they work well during your "tests", then you can purchase more adapters and add AirPorts or other routers to set up the network the way that you want. I am not necessarily recommending that you use Apple products. Virgin might have some solutions that would be much easier to install and configure.
    Having one of the IT guys come out to survey your home and offer some suggestions...even if you have to pay a fee.....would be very wise thing to do before you proceed with any potential plan.
    The IT guys may spot a potential problem.....something that you have not thought off yet.....that will help you avoid delays and heachaches in the future.

  • The Quicktime 10.1 viewer adds black borders

    Since updating to Lion, the Quicktime viewer adds borders to my pre-existing videos. No matter how I re-size the window the borders remain on the sides of my portrait aspect ratio videos.  They played just fine (borderless) before upgrading, now the black borders cover other parts of my presentation.  Anyone know how to make them go away.  It's a shame that they would induce such an unelegant feature.  Using Quicktime 7 for the time being, just moving the videos to the bottom of the viewing area to eleminate the controls.  VLC player doesn't loop and won't allow me to drag for random sizing. Just gives me 1/2 full, double-sized, etc.

    And what aspect ratio are "your" videos?  Landscape?
    Aha! Now I see what you are getting at. Still doubt this is a deliberately "added feature" but do consider it to be a bug introduced in QT v10.1. In my opinion it is likely due to fractional aspect ratios and is a problem similar to QT 7 pixel dimension problem when width is <348 pixels. Problem may be due to the fact that portrait views are still embedded as 1280x720  files (aspect 1.78:1) even though they are being displayed as 720x1280 (aspect 1:0.56). Have not run tests to determin an exact "break point" for bug, but have observed that all mixed number apects seem to display properly. You will also observe that as QT X switches to "Full Screen" for these portrait views, that the pillaring shrinks and disappears. Would definitely sugguest others report this in QT X feedback to see if it can be fixed.

  • How can I get a new rear cover for iphone (not 3G)

    I have the older iphone 16GB (not 3G). it was broken when I dropped it. I tried taking it apart, and of course, I bent the aluminum back cover of the phone and can't get it back to the exact shape it was in before I bent it. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement back case? I've found the small black plastic cover, but not the aluminum one.
    Thanks!

    This company will replace the back cover with different color options - their quoted price includes material and labor. If you want to purchase the back cover only and install it yourself, they may sell you the back cover only.

  • Does anyone know a source for a EOS D30 camera lithium battery cover CB2 0666-000

    I am wondering if anyone can help me. I have a Canon EOS D30 I inherited from my parents. They hardly used it, so I would like to sell it. However, the round black battery cover for the lithium battery on the bottom of the camera is missing. I thought it would easy to find a replacement, and after an exhaustive internet search, was I surprised to see that it is not available anywhere! Does anyone know if there is a cover from another model that would work? Without it, the camera is rendered useless!!!!!  Canon could only provide me the part #:  CB2 0666-000.  I checked ever site link, and it seems as if this part is now sold out over the world..... THANK YOU to whomever can help me.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    If you just can't find that cover you can always put the battery grip on it. That is probably the reason the original cover is missing anyway as someone had a grip on it. Plus the grip makes it a way much better camera.
    I have to agree, though, a 3 MP camera is not very desirable and may not be worth the cost of the grip. But that is a way out for you.

  • How do I fix the black bars showing up on most of the drodown menus, such as the bookmarks or the orange firefox file button? (running windows 7)

    Every time a dropdown menu is opened, black bars cover all the selections. The specific black bar will disappear when the mouse hovers over it but all the rest remain covered. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and removed all personal information such as saved passwords and bookmarks with no success.

    hello, try to press ctrl+0 ('zero') while you're on the affected pages in order to reset the zoom level or in case this doesn't work also go through the other common troubleshooting steps at [[Websites look wrong or appear differently than they should]].

  • How to clean lint and dirt off the "Inside" of the Smart Cover?

    I have the gray Smart Cover and love it.
    Today I noticed some lint on the Inside of the cover - can I use a lint brush on the inside of the cover to clean it?
    I do not want to damage the soft felt that rests against the screen.
    Thank you.

    I've had this same problem. I have the black leather cover. The first few days it seemed to stay secure. But now it slides around much more and definitely falls open if I hold the iPad upside down.
    Seeing how everyone seems to have eliminated the magnets of both devices as the culprit, I think I know what the problem is. It's the joint flexibility. Fresh and never folded the joints are more stiff, which means it doesn't buckle/pop up easily. After a few days of folding though the joints are much more flexible, causing them to buckle if the cover slides around. Since the magnet hold it in place is at the edge of the cover, if the cover slides a little the magnets are no longer aligned, hence the falling open.
    If I'm right, then sadly this is a design flaw that can't be remedied by replacements.

  • Wrong Cover Art For Complete Led Zeppelin...

    This is frustrating. I just purchased the complete Led Zeppelin from Itunes and it gives me the Led Zeppelin I cover art instead of the Black Zoso Cover.... How can I get this cover...?

    You can always search for it yourself on Amazon, Google images, etc. Download a version you like and then manually add the artwork yourself.
