  • IPod Mini not available any more??

    yes - I have been hiding under a rock for the last little while...Is the iPod Mini not available for sale anymore...completely replaced by the Nano??? but the Nano doesn't come in cute colors!!!!

    Correct. It has been discontinued by Apple.
    There may be a few places with some still available but don't hold your breath.

  • IPod mini replacement

    I was wondering; since I had just ordered a repair courier for my iPod mini, about the same time the package arrived the iPod nano was released, since I was already getting a bran new mini I was wondering if I could like give apple like 50 bucks and they could replace my mini with a nano. Is there any possibility of a swap and if you don't know please just post a place where I could contact apple because I seem to be having difficulty finding a support email.

    Nick,
    No, there is no chance of you replacing the mini with a nano. Apple do not do this. The replacement iPod you get, will be the same model you sent in.

  • Apple iPod Nano replacement program - question

    Hello, Apple community,
    I have a question about the new replacement program of the iPod nano 1st gen.
    The program doesn't state whether or not you get a refund or a new iPod nano (the small squared once with touch screen).
    The program says that you'll get a replacement iPod Nano, but isn't very specific if it is the new generation.
    I apologise for any spelling mistakes and such.
    Thank you for any answer,

    Hi lindsayfromspencerport,
    I can say it is not a scam - Apple is definitely replacing the iPods.  Once I read the article and went to apple.com, that proved it.  Apple.com would never risk another class action lawsuit over this iPod.
    My First Generation iPod was given to me at work for being the winner of a give-away drawing and about a year or so ago it overheated and erased all the info on the iPod.  Now it will only charge and drain the battery.  It no longer allows me to store any thing on it.
    I am glad that Apple is doing this exchange.  I thought I was just out of luck and was glad I had not paid full price for it.  I love my Nano and used it constantly!!!
    Just send your's in using the box and label they send you and give them 6 weeks like the apple.com website says, Apple will make good on their product.  Millions of people don't stand in line and wait weeks/months for their new products to arrive for no reason, trust me.  Oh, by the way, I know this for sure.....I work for a wireless phone service that has been dealing with Apple for Yearsssssssssssss.....and every year the same thing.  People will give anything to get a product with that apple on it.

  • Apple iPod Battery Replacement Program Experiences.

    Hello, as you all know apple offers the battery replacement program for 99 dollars (now sixty something dollars). For any of you that have tried it, can you please tell us all a little about how was your experience? did you get a better ipod or a worse one? a refurbished, used or new? scratched or perfect?
    please leave a comment on how your experience was with Apple's battery replacement program even if it is a very small one.

    I just received my refurbished iPod back yesterday. It looked like new! The engraving was on the back, just like the unit I sent in.
    However, the reason I am on the forums today is that when I plugged it in to charge the new battery before synching, I received the familiar "battery with exclamation point" screen. So now I seem to have a clean, new or refurbished unit with the same old problem. Frustrating to say the least.

  • Ipod mini replacement batteries

    Has anyone actually bought a replacement battery online and replaced it themselves? Was it pretty easy to do? I know my battery is shot, I haven't been able to use my ipod for a while now and am hoping that buying a replacement battery will be my ipod back up and running. Just wanted to hear from anyone who's done this.

    This web site has a lot of great repair guides, including for the iPod mini
    http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iPod_Mini
    Also, if you search on YouTube, there seem to be videos of the procedure. 
    (On a side note, if the tiny hard drive in your iPod mini ever goes bad, you can supposedly replace it with a standard compact flash card.)

  • Apple ipod mini

    I bought my ipod mini in june, and by mid july, the click wheel all of a sudden was at an angle, i mean the wheel itself was slanting to the left, towards the back track button. I never put much, or any force on my ipod mini click wheel, especially since it was my pride and joy, and so new at the time...anyone know why this happens, or how, or has it happened to anyone else other than me?...
    Thank you. ******* more below:-->

    This is a repost of my same message, what i want to know now is that, if i return my ipod mini like some of you have suggested, will i be getting my personalized ipod mini, back or will i get a nano,?.. i want to still have my mimi:) thank you.

    You will get the same model and capacity back as you sent in. You can opt to have the original engraving, or to not have any engraving.
    I believe that the ClickWheel is attached to the case using double-sided sticky tape. Evidently, it has come loose.

  • Apple iPod Mini Case

    Hello. I was just wondering, what is the overall best case to get for the iPod Mini? I want almost all of the iPod to be covered, and I see that the Zcover does that. Is that a good case? Can someone post pictures of their Zcover case? Thank you!

    well, bob, i have a cover, nice cover,its a...incase black leather, but i put protective film, like whats used on pdas on my ipod screen for extra screen protection. im not fimiliar w/ zcover.

  • Apple iPod nano replacement

    I have an iPod nano that is very probable to be on the extended guarantee plan. I had the product registered and a replacement request sent. According to Apple, an empty box is on its way. This is since January and I haven't received n/e thing. What can I do?

    It should take a couple of days.  Something has happened with your box.  Call Apple and request a new one.

  • Apple ipod mini scrolling through songs

    I recently set up a mini on my itunes for my daughter with her own playlist as described in the site. I had to transfer her songs over to my computer and some of them she got off of the store had to be authorized. BUT...Now her mini scrolls through all of her songs uncontrolled when you try to play them. What is causing this??
    Help!! Thanks

    This has happened to me also, and I'm just as clueless! At random times all or just some songs in a playlist/artist/album will suddenly scroll rather than play for now reason. I had it happen within the very same day - one hour it works fine and the next it's scrolling and I haven't done anything to it.
    The only good thing is it seems to fix itself after I connect the it to the computer and it updates itself. But still, it's very irritating, almost as much as how Apple Techs don't seem to want to talk about it. I'm guessing they rushed this thing out to market and haven't a clue either as to why it happens.
    And I've had other unexplained quirks both with the iPod and with iTunes. I got my mini as a gift, but given how "iPod Tech Support" is a new oxymoron, I doubt if I'll ever buy another one when this craps out.

  • Apple IPOD mini so unreliable & hard to service!!

    My 2 month old IPOD has been crashing almost every week...
    till 10 days ago it has frozen for good ! Help desk took
    ages to confirm some 'hardware issue'.
    Now it needs to shipped back so that I can get a second hand (refurbished) unit. It seems I have just been doing validation testing for Apple and as a reward I get to keep a refurbished unit !! ...What a con!!

    The fact that the original poster is unhappy with the product indicates Apple has failed him. The quality of the product was substandard, since it failed to me his specifications.
    He has every right to be unhappy with the performance of his product.
    If I was Apple, I would be concerned. Seems like Apple has just lost a future customer. Take his situation and multiply it by the number of other people. Sooner or later, people will prefer quality over technology.
    I'm unsatisfied with my mini ipod.
    To the original poster- at least Apple is losing money with your transaction. These post-transaction costs hurts their bottom-line.

  • Apple iPod Nano Replacement Program HELP?

    I requested the replacement in mid November, but never received any box or packaging in which to send the product back to Apple. Yet when I check the repair status on the site, it says it was dispatched.
    What do I do?

    In your case, if you have not gotten a box, CALL APPLE, they would need to set up the service again. Have your s/n or old repair id ready.
    You would recieve your box in about 7-10 days after you set it up.
    Call 1800 MY APPLE
    Hope this helps.

  • Contacting Apple - ipod nano replacement

    Hi
    Can anyone provide the best and hopefully quickest way for me to contact Apple with respect to my 1g nano replacement.  UPS have tried to deliver the new one today, but there will be no-one home all of this week so I need to get the address changed.  UPS have been given strict instructions as to who they can deliver to, so I have been told to contact apple, but I am trying to avoid sitting on a phone for an hour! (I am based in the UK by the way)
    Thanks
    Tim

    You can contact Apple in the UK using the Express Lane or call them at (44) 0844 209 0611.
    Best of luck.

  • Mini Ipod Battery Replacement Trouble

    Hey guys,
    I bought a ipod mini replacement battery from this site:
    http://store.l-f-l.com/cgi-bin/cp-app.cgi?pg=prod&ref=EC003
    I installed it carefully and everything just like the directions told me to and it looked great. But the only problem is the sound does not work, it works when i place it on one of my ipod music players but you cannot hear anything with it by itself and the headphones, and i know it is not the headphones because i checked it to make sure...
    Does anyone know what is wrong or what I should do?
    Mini Ipod (1st generation)   Windows XP  

    1. You will get back an identical iPod (same generation, same engraving, same color).
    2. The new iPod will be blank, so you'll have to put the sngs onto it through iTunes, like getting a new iPod.
    I hope this helps!
    By the way, it is a lot easier to read your post if you type normally, not in one very long sentence.
