2nd Nike+ dead within warranty period, but 'no record' of serial #

I'm extremely frustrated with my Apple/Nike user experience.
My first Nike+ died after very little use (I ran 3 miles 3x/week with it for about 4 months, then put it away for a few months, and when I took it out again, dead). So I bought another kit. I've run with this one for another few months... until on a recent workout I got the 'activity stopped' announcement and yes, another dead kit.
I bought a replacement sensor, but it didn't link. I then tried my old receiver, from the first set, and it couldn't find the new sensor either.
Since my most recent Nike+ kit is still well within the 1-year warranty, I went to the Online Service Assistant (as I should have done with the last one) to get this kit replaced. But when I entered my serial number, I got the response: "We're sorry, the number you have provided cannot be found in our records. Please verify the number and try again, or contact us."
Of course it is nearly impossible to contact them regarding service without putting in a recognized serial number.
I've now spent $70 on Nike Plus and don't have a working unit. What the heck?! Do Apple people actually ever answer posts on this forum?

When you sync your Nike sensor with your iPod, then sync your iPod with your computer, the serial number will be sent to Apple. Since you couldn't connect the sersor to your iPod, Apple has no record of the number. I am having the same problems also, but the sensor did connect with my iPod, then I synced it with my computer, and now I don't know how to replace it.

  • Hardware issue - within warranty period

    I purchased iphone 4s in US and I am residing in India. The applications like camera, phone book are automatically closing while taking photos or managing contacts.
    Is there a way out to send my phone to US apple store and get it replaced?

    Guarantee only in the country where it comes from.
    Did you buy from a reliable source (Apple or certified Reseller)?
    Has it been hacked to unlock?
    The only thing you can dow now: hold the Power button and the Home button at the same time, keep holding, when you see the white apple logo let go and let it restart. Maybe it solves the problem.

  • Apple denying service during warranty period

    I had an iPad mini which suddenly became unresponsive while going through my photos. When I took it to the service centre, they denied service even though it was within warranty period! And the reason they give is the device was opened and tampered with !! There is no way to open the ipadmini. How can it be opened! The service centre guy says he agrees to this fact but can't help as their computer is giving this reason - unauthorised handling of hardware. I went through this forum and found some other people also with the same complaint. Unfortunately there is nothing we can do about it. Consumer courts in India are not as strong and nor is it easy to pursue a case. Most of us are unaware about how to go about it.
    IF anybody has a suggestion, it would be greatly appreciated. All I can say is very disappointing to see apple guys cheat you on your face with an impossible reason. Even if that analysis of their's says they are denying service because my iPad body is of plastic, I just have to accept!! They can give any flimsy reason and there is nothing you can do about it.

    Take it to another service center and see what they say. Or ask to talk to a supervisor. if that doesn't work, click on the 'contact us' link in the lower right corner of this page and take your issue to apple corporate.

  • My iPhone 3gs stopped working 2 days before warranty period,now even warranty period is expired I need replacement

    My iPhone 3gs stopped working 2 days before warranty period,But i was unable to contact apple immediately as no apple store is available near my place,Now i need to replace my iphone..How can i get it?

    Pay for an out of Warranty replacement.
    It was your decision to not contact Apple before the warranty period expired.

  • Apple care: bought within warranty but not actually registered

    Hi I bought my Applecare for my Mac book pro well within my 1 years warranty period and I thought I had registered it, but having looked the other day, I realized it is not covered.
    Can I still register it now considering the computer is outside of the warranty period.
    I still have an original receipt for the purchase of the applecare.
    Thanks for your help.
    Metso

    If the product you purchased it for is now out of warranty, Apple would have to make an exception for it to be covered. You will need to talk to their agreement administration department. Call the applicable phone number on this page to get to their tech support folks and ask to be transferred to agreement admin. No guarantees what will happen but at least you have a shot. Be prepared to sent the proof of purchase of your AppleCare as they will likely ask for that.
    Best of luck.

  • Iphone 4s fault repaired within warranty but same fault has reoccurred just after warranty has expired. What can I do?

    My husband's phone developed an internal fault that meant the sound kept dropping out during phone conversations. He took the phone to the Apple store a couple of months ago and they fixed the problem under the warranty. The same fault has reoccurred, so he took the phone back to the store yesterday and they wouldn't fix it because the warranty has now expired, (sometime in October). If Apple do a repair three months ago that subsequently goes wrong, it is surely reasonable to expect them to fix it after such a short period of time, regardless of whether the warranty has expired? By their logic, they could replace a phone the day before the warranty expires but if it dies 48 hours later they would have no responsibility to do anything.

    Thanks Victoria,
    I figured we are not alone but is this a comfimrd, (by Apple), design fault? If the problem was a latent fault at time of purchase then Apple have to deal with the problem under EU law.
    At the moment, they are wriggling out of doing anything because the warrenty has expired. We are quite clued up on consumer law and realise that it is not 'fit for purpose' under the Sale of Goods Act and, on those grounds alone, we have a good position to argue from. However, if we are sure there is a latent problem, we probably have have a good arguement for a replacement rather than a repair, particularly as they already repaired the phone about three months ago and the problem has manifested itself again.

  • HT201412 iPad screen does not respond, even after several resets (both with iTunes and at the Apple Store). Apple is also unresponsive to a hardware problem once the product warranty period has expired. Does anyone have a suggestion?

    It is getting very frustrating to have Apple products.
    Constant software upgrades and product releases seems to be the sole focus of Apple.
    Apple does not offer hardware repair services. I can understand this policy when products do not fail. But it seems that this is not the case with Apple, as it becomes frequent that products fail just after the warranty period.
    New software releases also destroyed the value of a "GREAT EXPERIENCE". YouTube, Google Maps, ... all features that are deleted with the latest IOS and that Apple could not properly replace.
    It seems that Apple products are not 'consummable' products but 'disposable' products.
    Let's see how robust SAMSUNG tablets are

    Apple has hardware repair services, on repairable hardware. Apple just doesn't repair iPads, from day one Apple has always replaced iPads, either under warranty or as a reduced cost out-of-warranty purchase.
    The rest of your post is just a rant. Enjoy your Samsung products.

  • Sales Analysis Tcode MCTE - drilldown per day within a period?

    Hello,
    Current settings in transaction MCTE allow a user to find the total sales figures per organization for the given period.
    Within that period, is there a way to drilldown in order to see the total sales per day within the given period?  If it's not possible in the MCTE transaction, is there another standard transaction that can be accessed to find this information?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Andy
    There is no way to drill down with a period to days after you chose Period,  say Month.
    But there is a workaround to this.
    Make the 'day' as the period unit, in other words, update on a daily basis. T code omo1
    Hope this helps.

  • Need information regarding the warranty period of my curve 9360

    I was having battery backup issues with my device so I took it to the Blackberry service center. service center people have inspected it and have found that battery is faulty but they have refused to change the battery stating that my device is out of warranty period as its over a year when I purchased my mobile phone and warranty period is for one year only. Although it is clearly mentioned over the Box of my phone that warranty is for 18 months.
    Date of Purchase: 21/09/2012
    Please help. what should i do?

    Hello,
    Warranty is a contractual matter between buyer and seller, determined at the time of the transaction. What it states on the box may or may not be governing...it might be overridden by other contractual documents (which, of course, no one here in this user-to-user community can see). If I were you, I would review all of my contractual documents coupled with knowing my local jurisdictional requirements...some governments require some things, while others do not. With you knowing all of that information, escalate with the service center to assert your rights, whatever those are.
    Good luck!

    Apple's Limited Warranty http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/ for iPad excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications.
    Out-of-Warranty Service
         If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace (Apple doesn't repair) your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below. (The replacement will most likely be a refurbished iPad in a brown box, however, it has a new screen, back and battery.)   
    iPad model
    Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
    iPad mini
    $219
    iPad 3rd, 4th generation
    $299
    iPad 2, iPad
    $249
    A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
    Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service. See http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad

    You may can get the iPad repaired at 3rd party repair sources for less $, however, any remaining Apple warranty will be voided.

  • WRT150N Warranty Period

    I purchased a WRT150n router from Amazon.com on 2/3/2008 which shipped on 2/10/2008. The router no longer works. I contacted Linksys within the last month and was told that my warranty expired in October 2008!! The product material stated that the warranty period was for one year. There was no mention in the warranty that came with the unit concerning any condition on the warranty period. Has anyone had a problem with Linksys refusing to honor the one year warranty on this product? My warranty appears to have been cut short by four months and I've not been able to get a valid answer from Linksys as to why other than, "That's what the database says."
    Update: Kudos to Linksys,
    Before I could call as suggested by sabretooth, below, I received a telephone call from Linksys. We discussed the matter and they agreed to issue an RMA once I sent them a copy my receipt. I've returned by unit for replacement. I very much appreciate their response.

    Call Linksys back and ask for a supervisor. Explain the situation and that you have a valid receipt and expect them to honor it.
