Apple is replacing my iPod Touch, will my replacement be a brand new iPod or refurbished?

I had problems with my iPod so they are replacing it for me, will they give me a new iPod or refurbished? And does a refurbished iPod have a new battery in it?

Like I said, it will look and work like new. They fully test batteries. If cases or screens have any scratches, they are replaced.

  • My computer locked-up, and when rebooted, my itunes library was gone, replaced with a brand new library.  Fortunately, my 450 GB iTunes library is still on the computer.  Question is how do restore my original library without having to reload folders? Tks

    Help!  My computer locked-up and had to be rebooted.  However, when I restarted it and hooked up my iPod, I noticed my existing iTunes library (all 450 GB of it) was GONE and was replaced by a brand new library.  Fortunately my old, 450 GB library is still on my hard drive under iTunes in Windows Explorer.  How or why could this have happened, and most importantly how can I restore my old libary without having to manually import allow of my music and hundreds of Podcasts and 16000+ podcast files?
    Thanks for any help....

    What you're describing is the expected behaviour.  I believe though that is also is the easiest way to have all the contents available to both of you at all times.  If you have a spacious hard drive you should probably allow this to happen as anything else will be harder to manage.
    My suggestion would be the following if you want to try something different.
    Store all your music at a location that is accessible by both of you — an example would be to use your Public Folder as the locations where iTunes will go and look for all the media files—.  Your wife does have access to it.
    In the Finder you will need to move the folder name iTunes Music to the location in your Public Folder (see above).  Once that's done, you and your wife will have to go into the iTunes Preferences > Advance Preferences and un-check Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library.  From this point on, you can continue to use iTunes as usual.  You'll need to tell your wife what has been newly downloaded/imported into your iTunes so she can manually go look for those items in that Public Folder iTunes of yours and import them into her iTunes.  She will not duplicate by doing that, but, like I say this is an all-manual work.
    She can do the same, so you have access to contents she imported herself.  One more downside of this is that both usernames have to be active in your iMac.  If yours isn't, she won't be able to access any item (song, book, app) located in your Public Folder's iTunes.
    I'm sure there's a way, if you have an router with external hard drive conectivity, for both of you to be able to access —independently— the iTunes Media at all times but I was just reading at another post that doing so can further complicate things.
    Hope this helps.  Please let me know what you think or decide to do.

  • My iPod Nano will not sync with my brand new Mac Air...will charge

    My iPod nano (touch) will not sync with my iTunes on my brand new Macbook Air. It will charge my iPod and give the option to eject the iPod, but it will not recognize my iPod to sync. Any ideas why and how to fix it?

    Hey all, I had to call Apple Support to resolve the issue as nothing on the web provided an answer. So for all you out there having the same problem, here's the ituation and full resolution, so you can save time and money (if your product's warranty is expired).
    Situation: I bought a brand new Mac Air on 12/7/12 and tried to sync my 6th generation iPod nano (previously configured to a PC) with no sucess. ITunes was only allowing me to charge and eject the nano.
    Solution:
    1. Go to View>sidebar
    2. In the sidebar, click "iPod" under the Devicies category
    3. Click "Music" section next to "Summary" under the status bar
    4. Make sure "Sync" box is checked with your preferred preferences underneath
    5. Click "Sync" in bottom right corner of window
    Apparently, iTunes 11 is quite different and the sidebar with usual options and playlists does not appear unless selected in the "View" drop-down.
    FINISHED!  

  • Is the replacement iPod 1st Gen brand new or a refurbished model?

    Today I recieved the packet to send my iPod nano back to Apple, but before I do, I'd like to know whether I'll recieve a brand new iPod nano 1st Gen or a refurbished model. My unit is in virtually mint condition due to me keeping it in a case since purchase, and the battery still lasts several hours anyway (I'd be happy with a brand new unit, but I don't want to return it just to get a scratched model with a new battery).
    Any information is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    You will not receive a 1G nano at all.  You will receive a refurbished 6G model (in whatever color they happen to pull out of the bin).
    I was on the phone with Customer Service for almost a half hour today.  The limited supply of already refurbished 1G nanos has already been exhausted, and they are not even refurbishing the ones they are getting back... they are using them for parts for later generation nanos.
    I am NOT a happy camper right now.  If Apple had truly done the ritth thing and told people what they would be receiving in return, I would have kept my nearly pristine, shiny black 1G.

  • IPOD Touch died 5 days after purchasing brand new!

    Ok, so my old Ipod Classic finally died on me after like 4+ yrs of owning it, so I save up all the cash I can (I'm a single mother, 23 yrs old, in school... basically, can't afford something like this happening), and go buy the Ipod Touch 5 days ago and now it died on me today during the day while I was listening to music. ***!!??? I'm really ****** about this, considering the fact that it's brand new, AND I just can't believe Apple would make such a piece of CRAP! What's going on? Is this common?? Or maybe I just got a dud somehow? Help 'cause I'm really frustrated here... Thanks in advance to any advice!

    Yay! Thank you Thank you Thank you!! It's back on

  • I'm not able to pair my iPad with my Logitech mini-Boombox. I was able to do this on my original iPad. I was having a problem on an unrelated matter, and the Apple store replaced it with a new device. Previously, all Bluetooth devices worked fine;

    I'm not able to pair my iPad via Bluetooth with my Logitech mini-Boombox. I recently brought my iPad to the Apple Store for an unrelated problem, and they replaced it with a new device. The old device had no problem pairing with any of my Bluetooth devices. I'm only haveing the problem with my new device. I was able to pair it with my Apple wireless keyboard, but not the mini-Boombox. I think I've done everything that I've read in other forum posts: I've toggled the Bluetooth setting on and off; I've reset the iPad a couple times; I've turned off and on the mini-Boombox; I've recharged the mini-Boombox. What am I missing here, and how can I fix this?

  • IChat will not launch from my brand new iMac - What do i need to do?

    Just purchased a brand new iMac 24". Really nice machine except that iChat will not launch. I click on the icon but it just bounces once and does nothing. Any ideas what i need to do please?

    Hi deano68,
    Very odd.
    OK I think we have at least one app that has not installed properly.
    It could also be that a Font is missing. Certain Apple Apps will not launch if Helvetica is not active in the Font Book.
    There are two ways to reinstall the Application.
    Both are listed here in Ryan's FAQ.
    Both methods require that you download the Combo Install and run that as well.
    This catches all the iChat Updates that come with OS updates so that iChat and the OS are at the same level.
    You might want to try the Combo Update on it's own first before the Reinstall as it often sorts things.
    The link in the FAQ to downloads may not work now since the Apple Site has been reorganised.
    They are now here http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/

  • A dvd will not eject from my brand new IMac. I have done every suggestion in the help area. Any suggestions on how to get this DVD out of the computer?

    My brand new IMac will not eject a DVD. I have tried everything that was suggested in "help". It didn't recognize the dvd, and whenever I try to eject it, it is not highlighted. I have tried to restart while holding the track pad, and nothing happened at all. The dvd is from the library...so it needs to be returned! Any other suggestions?

    Have you tried all of these?
    1. Pressing the Eject key while opening the iMac.
    2. Pressing the Eject key while closing down the iMac.
    3. Holding down the Option key while restarting the iMac.
    4. Using Disk Utility to try to Mount, Repair and Eject the disk.
    5. Holding down the Mouse while restarting the iMac.
    6. Pressing the O and F keys while closing down the iMac.
    7. Opened Applications > Utilities >Terminal and typed in 'drutil tray eject'.

  • FCP 7 will NOT open with my brand new Retina MacBook Pro, any ideas?

    I got my brand new retina-display macbook pro in the mail today. I installed Final Cut Studio 3, with dmg file I made from original disk, right serial numbers etc. Upgraded to 7.0.3 through the software update.
    Final Cut opened once (which was fine) and I realized I had to install magic bullet looks to keep working on a project I had been working on.
    After I did so FCP would not open. Thinking this was the problem, I completely uninstalled all plugins using Red Giants official uninstall app. I also deleted the Boris continuum plugins lots of people say is a problem in Mountain Lion with FCP startup issues.
    I then used FCS remover to completely remove the entire suite and restarted, emptied the trash etc for a clean slate.
    Upon reinstalling, Final Cut will not open. The startup screen shows up, goes through profiling for RT extreme etc and then closes and the icon disappears from the dock. Everything else opens, motion, compressor, dvd studio pro. Everything is fine except for Final Cut. I have trashed preferences and reinstalled numberous times and triple checked there are no rogue plugins lying around. Nothing seems to work. The only thing I haven't tried is restoring the machine to factory settings and starting from scratch.
    This is incredibly frustrating, does anyone have any insight?
    Thanks.

    Thanks David. I wiped the machine and rinstalled Lion and started from scratch again which was a bummer but worked. I feel like the earlier plugins I installed had something to do with it.

  • IPod Touch will not sync with iTunes on new computer

    I recently got a new computer (Dell to HP, which shouldn't make any difference). I downloaded iTunes on the new computer and was able to get all my music, tv shows, and movies onto my new computer using a Flash Drive.
    I have contacted iTunes help twice now and they have basically given me nothing to work with. I have all the updated software (2.2.1 or so), and I have restore my iPod Touch about 3 times because I was told this would work.
    When I try to sync my iPod Touch, it tells me that it could not sync because certain songs "could not be found". I have every single one of my purchases and stuff from CDs on my iTunes and I just want this fixed so I can use my iPod Touch again.
    My iPod is now empty except for a few applications and pictures that, for some reason, were able to get past all that and can be synced. If anyone has had this problem, please please please help me. I am getting very close to ripping my hair out with frustration and/or throwing my iPod Touch out of the window.

    unless you do TWO (and I mean BOTH) things... 1) put the audio files in the same path as on the old laptop... and 2) copied over (or exported) library info, you will have to do something else... and all it is, is to tell the itunes to "add folder".
    Once you add the folder, just consolidate it.
    When I bought my new laptop, I had copied my music library and the extra account information. I restored the account info, but put my music in a different location (on a completely separate drive, which has saved me a few times since). So I had to change the preferences to point to the correct location, and it picked up ALL the songs.
    I've since done a recovery on my new laptop a few times... and unfortunately I didn't save a copy of the account info (my old laptop has "glitched" out since, and I have no access to that info either). So even though my music is still there, I have to tell iTunes to "add folder", even though I changed the preferences to use that same folder as its library.

  • Why can't I finish reading some of the the books I bought in iBooks  on my iPod touch 32GB? It's a brand new device and I synced it with my old iPod touch 16GB.

    WWhy can't I finish reading some of my books I bought in iBook? I synced from my old 16GB IPOD TOUCH, I only get about a third or half the way through and it freezes.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Delete the books and redownload
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store         
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes      
      - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       

  • If you have a shattered screen and the lock button doesnt work, but you only tell the apple store about the lock button, will they give you a whole new phone, or just fix the button. Even if you still have warranty

    I recently broke my lock button when it dropped, and wont work again, also i shattered my screen a while back, but it didnt bother me. Now that i want to get the button fixed, will the apple store only fix the button, or the whole phone. I still have 2 weeks of warranty left so it's not like they'd fix one thing and not the other when either way they'll both be free ya know?

    They will not give you anything.
    They wil either return the device as is or replace it at the out of warranty replacement cost.

  • Touch screen and swipe problems on brand new iPhone 5S

    I brought it to the Apple store and they restored it. It started happening again. So the Apple store gave me a new phone, but used the same microchip. Today, I couldn't tap out of voice messages. I tapped "recents" - nothing. I tapped "contacts"- nothing. I could go into other apps and use them- just not in the phone part. Sometimes, it happens when I text- I can't text. I tap and tap. Nothing. And sometimes I can't swipe to answer an incoming phone call. It's very frustrating. Does anyone have any advice?

    Same problem in the middle left side of my 5s.  I can see the screen moving up and down if I look from the side, and it clicks when it pops back into place.
    I took it to the apple store in tysons corner, va today. The girl genius saw the issue and took my phone in the back to try setting the screen again.  When she brought it back the phone was still doing the exact same thing but she suddenly claimed she couldn't see/hear it anymore even though it is very noticable.  Another genius pretended not to notice it too.  I ended up just leaving and will try a different store.
    Adding this video (not mine) about an iPhone 5. It captures the issue perfectly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dgl7POLmKRc
