How does the Apple Headphones with Remote Replacement Program non-return fee work?

I have a pair of Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic that I purchased a year ago. According to the "Apple Headphones with Remote Replacement Program", http://www.apple.com/support/headphones/replacementprogram/, these headphones are also covered in the program. Currently, there are some issues with my headphone's remote, as it is extremely unresponsive. I don't know how Apple determines the headphone's purchase date, but their online service request page accepts my iPhone's serial number. Is there any way that i could ensure that Apple's willing to replace the headphones for free (E.g. mailing my current ones in first) because the non-return fee is basically its retail price. I do not live in the US so I can't go and exchange at an Apple Retail Store. Thanks in advance.

I would just bring them into your local Apple Store/Genius Bar and ask.

    I currently have a PC with Windows Outlook.  If I add an iPad to the mix, how does the iPad interface with Windows Outlook?

    Isn't Outlook simply an email client or a software application on a computer? You can add an email account - whatever email provider that you use - right on the iPad. You can sync your Outlook contacts and calendar if that is what you are asking about, but Outlook itself has nothing to do with the iPad.

  • How does the SecurityManager authorize with JAAS?

    Hello,
    I'm using java 1.3 and JAAS, trying to write my own Permission for authorization. How does the SecurityManager know to authorize a method for a Subject? Does the method that I want protected have to explicitly call checkPermission()?
    The examples given are always for FilePermission. They show a program calling Subject.doAs() to perform an action as a particular Subject, and they imply that checkPermission() is called by the methods doing the file access.
    Thanks

    I think you
    a) create a specific permission class (such as a "canDoThisPermission(String targetMethod)" class)
    b) in your method check that the permission is granted by calling
    checkPermission(new CanDoThisPermission(<methname>))
    be sure your new permission class is being loaded from a trusted location (...lib/ext/... for eg.)

    No, the WiFi model does not have a GPS.

  • How does AirPort Utility communicate with remote/relay AirPorts?

    1. Wireless case: Does the AirPort Utility always try to communicate with remote/relay AirPorts directly, or does it use the network WDS when another AirPort provides a stronger signal? If it's the former option, this might explain why people have problems sometimes configuring distant AirPort base stations in WDS setups. If it's the latter option, problems with configuring a distant AirPort might be caused by improper configuration of the AirPort providing the strongest signal (presumably, the nearest).
    2. Ethernet case: When one attempts to configure an AirPort via Ethernet, does it matter whether the AirPort is configured to connect to the internet via Ethernet (vs. wirelessly)?

    Thanks for the replies Bob

  • How does the MacBook Pro with Retina display scaled resolutions work?

    How does it work? I think I have the basics figured out; is this correct (by this, I mean below)?
    It is a scaled resolution (1/2 I think of the actual display resolution) therefore, the size of the pixels would be equivalent to 1440 x 900, but each pixel that is represented on screen is actually 4 pixels, therefore making it look sharper, so things are physically the same size if it would be an actual 1440 x 900 screen, but it looks sharper on the Retina display because each pixel is actually 4 pixels?
    Thanks

    If you read the specs on them you will discover that the MBP is way more powerful then the MBA. The big feature of the MBA is light weight. If you need a powerful computer then you want the MBP instead.

  • HT3939 how does the apple hearing aid work

    I hve an Iphone and would like to how the hearing aids work together?

    Apple doesn't make hearing aids. iPhones are hearing aid compatibile, however. See this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4526
    Some hearing aids are also BlueTooth cable. See the manual for your hearing aid or consult your audiologist.
    Best of luck.

  • How does the WCS communicate with the 4402 controller ?

    I would like to place the WCS server on a different vlan than the controller. How do they communicate ?
    Regards
    J Folkestad

    Hello,
    WCS communicates with the controller mainly through SNMP and HTTPS. You will find a list of protocols used on CCO
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_tech_note09186a00806f070a.shtml#portswcssvr
    So no problem to have WCS and controllers management ip addresses on two different subnets.

  • How does the iPad communicate with a pc? I am trying to listen to mp3's that are currently on my pc.  I can't get to the pc directly and I realize that's a distinct limitation of the iPad, but since it's also limited in it's ability to read sd or USB stik

    See the question above.

    Sorry, but I don't understand the question. If you wish to learn how to sync music from your computer to your iPad, read the user's guide or see:

    Otherwise, you'll need to clarify your question.

  • How does the y550p do with Ubuntu

    Has anybody tried Ubuntu 9.10 on an Ideapad y550p? Would be nice to hear if everything works.
    Is the casing of the laptop actual metal or is it plastic, I've never had on in my hands, the pictures look like metal
    Thanks
    Andreas

    if you have ubuntu cd ( or download iso file from here ), you can try it on your own without installing ubuntu on your system.
    just insert the disk into rom, and select "run without installation" and check for issues.

  • Can you get the plan headphones with a remote(like you do when you first buy a smaller gb ipod)? if so how much do they rage and where can you order then?

    i've been having a hard time just finding a good/not over 30$ headphones that will go with cause the the headphones i
    got are dead and not working no longer and you know parents or anyone these's days that are not willing to go
    buy something that isnt rescearched yet! and i even want a good pair but not have to spend 70$ on them and to
    know they might stop working in the next month/year or two!!

    That's a 3rd gen iPod shuffle, so do not get the new Apple EarPod headphones.  Based on posts I've read here, they do not work with the 3rd gen shuffle.
    You can still find the old version of the Apple headphones with remote, at online stores like Amazon.  They are like the one that came with your shuffle, except they usually have a microphone on the remote nub.
    Alternately, you can use something like this adapter with remote controls
    http://www.amazon.com/iLuv-iEA15BLK-3rd-Party-Headphone-VoiceOver/dp/B002RL9WDQ
    and connect ANY headphones.

  • 3rd Gen Headphones with Remote + iPad

    I bought a pair of the apple headphones with remote online. I think they are the 3rd gen version.
    I can't get the remote to work with my iPad
    Anyone know if these are incompatible for some reason?

    Since other users are having a problem I would say there is either a problem with the iOS or that the headphones are not fully compatible with the iOS. I now of nothing you can really do.

  • Trouble-shooting no sound through the right side of Apple earphones with remote...

    Hope this story of trouble-shooting this problem helps someone in the future.
    For some strange reason, when I listened to a podcast using the Music app through the Apple earphones with remote on my iPhone 4, the right side has no sound.  However, when I pull the earphone plug out one notch, I get sound from both sides, but the remote controls no longer work.  At that point, I was sure I had a hardware problem, but where it lay-- earphones or iPhone 4, I didn't know.
    1.  For my first step, I tried the earphones with another iPhone 4, and got the exact same results.  That convinced me that it was a problem with the earphones, but then I tried them on our iPad and they worked fine!
    2.  That ruled out the earphones and got me wondering if both iPhone 4's earphone jacks were flakey or misbehaving.  I had read about the old fuzz in the jack problem, so I used an air blower to clean it out, but it made no difference.  I still figured that maybe both jacks were stressed in some way, although two of them?
    3.  Then I read that some people found different apps worked--and even specifically that running Skype could solve things.  That didn't work.  However, it led me to try various streaming apps (e.g., Portal to the Universe, NPR) and everything was fine-- sound from both sides and remote controls fully functional.
    At that point, I was convinced there was something odd going on with the Music app.
    4.  Finally, it occurred to me to try other podcasts-- and even other episodes of the particular podcast.  They all worked fine.
    So, it ended up being one particular podcast-- and, while I still do not know why, it means that the earphones, the headphone jack, the iPhones are all in fine shape!  Yay!
    In any event, the bottom-line is that it's really smart to consider *all* the variables that could be affecting the situation--especially the most obvious ones that you wouldn't even think about it.  As it turned out, in my case, I had tested the very same podcast on both iPhones, so no wonder I got the very same results!

    I think you're right-- however, I always thought that mono recordings played through both ears--always worked that way on my old stereo system! 
    This podcast does that, too, but only if one pulls the plug out a bit!  That's what's confusing to me.  Why does it change from both ears to only one ear depending on far the plug is pushed in?  (And especially as it behaves opposite what one would expect-- both ears when not plugged in all the way-- only 1 when fully embedded!)

  • Does the Apple remote control work with MacBook Pro with retina? If yes, how can I sync it?

    Does the Apple remote control work with MacBook Pro with retina? If yes, how can I sync it?
    Thanks!

    It should. First, turn on BlueTooth on the computer. In BT preferences be sure to check the option to look for all devices. Your remote should be picked up and a notice asking if you want to Pair it with the computer. Select Yes. Once it is paired it can be used to control your computer.
