Are lightning charger cables covered under 1 year warranty?

I bought my iPhone 5 last December and despite trying to take extra care of it, the cable has a kink at the base of the adapter that prevents it from charging my phone unless it's situated a certain way. I was wondering if I could take it into the Apple store and get it replaced because it's been less than a year since I got it?

Yes.  For best results, make a reservation at the Genius Bar and bring the iPhone with you.  That way you'll be in, out and on your way within a few minutes.

  • Is my iPhone 5 charger cable covered under the AppleCare warranty?

    Is my iPhone 5 charger cable covered under the AppleCare warranty? I need to know because mine no longer works and I don't want to have to pay if I don't need to for a new cable. I have heard that you can but better safe than sorry right.
    Also I know that there are two size cables the regular (0.5 m) and a longer one (1 m). Does anyone know if instead of getting my broken cable of regular size if i could get the longer one. Just wondering.
    Thanks for any help

  • Is a Faulty charge port covered under iPhone 5's standard one year warranty?

    Is a Faulty charge port covered under iPhone 5's standard one year warranty? As in the phone will go from charging to not charging without even moving the phone. It happens with multiple chargers as well so it is the phone.

    As long as it was not covered by damages yes it is covered. Make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and back up your iPhone before you go in.

  • Is this covered under the warranty?

    A month ago my iPhone was stolen. A teacher just confiscated it from the thief. However the glass on the screen and back were destroyed, but the LCD still worked. The battery was dead and when I tried charging it, it wouldn't. Is repairing this or getting a new one covered under the warranty?

    No. Only manufacturing defects are.

  • Will the Apple Headphones be covered under the warranty?

    Hey,
    My left ear bud keeps buzzing. Will it be covered under the warranty? I got my iPod Touch 2 weeks ago and I really don't want to buy new apple headphones. Please help I don't have a JOB and my parents are cheap! And I don't want to call apple for nothing! So are the headphones covered or am I 'SOL'?

    They are covered by your warranty.
    You can either stop by an Apple Store Genius Bar http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
    Or you can order a replacement online http://www.apple.com/support/serviceassistant/overview.html

  • A gold connector is missing on lightning charger cable. Is it still safe to use?

    One of the little gold connectors on the lightning charging cable is missing. Is it still safe to use?

    If a connector is missing then the cable is damaged and will no longer work as expected or at all. Get a new cable.

  • I recently purchased an ipad 2 secondhand and it appears to still be covered under the warranty. Does the warranty extend to me as the new  owner?

    I recently purchased an ipad 2 secondhand and it appears to still be covered under the warranty. Does the warranty extend to me as the new owner. The previous owner has not notified Apple that I am the new owner and has now moved away so no contact possible

    Warranty is with the device, not the user.

  • Are the charge cords covered by the one year warranty on the iphone 5?

    My family bought four new iphone 5 phones in December of 2012 and only one phone charging cord works now.  Does anyone know if apple covers the cords under the one year warranty?

    Yes so long as they have not been broken through abuse or damage.

  • Is the charger/sync cord covered under verizon warranty?

    Had some problems, i dont have the money to buy even a cheap one, and my phone has died. i have a kitten who likes to chew on cords, he chewed on this one, but it kept working until a few days ago even after it had been chewed on and been that way for quite some time (about 2 or 3 weeks now), but it just stopped charging the other day (about 5 mins after i plugged it in to charge). I know it's pulling some sort of electricity because the charger still gets hot, even tho the phone isn't being charged, so i guess it ended up not making a connection anymore. (the charger has always gotten hot so hot that if it's in for a full charge from dieing on me, that i can't touch the charger without unplugging the iphone, and waiting for it to cool down, it gets extremely burning hot. but no sparks or anything so i just assume(d) that was/is normal. but that's how i know it's getting some current of electricity because the charger part is still getting warm to the touch, but the phone isn't getting anything on the recieving end.
    (another question, i've search a lot, and found answers for this, but all were "no" and a few ended up stating things as facts as to why it was a "no" but their facts weren't facts at all...
    can i use my ipod shuffle charge/sync cord to charge my iphone 4? it's the headphone jack one. (and people say the reason it's "no" is because the headphone jack is only a output and not a input... my thoughts are they are wrong because if that was the case, then you couldn't use the mic on the headphones through the headphone jack. The mic is the input, while the headphones are the output. so there is a two way connection of some sort there.. ))
    My iphone 4 charger and charge/sync cord are the ones that originally came from the phone back in January 2013 when i got it.
    (if i were to try the other charge/sync cord that came from the ipod shuffle, it's the one that orignally came with it, back in 2008-ish . (but i dont want to break my phone in the process. so i'm just trying to find other options and make sure that it wouldn't short it out or kill it in some way (the charger, the charger/sync cord, and/or the phone)).
    I have the 1yr warranty, but i've never had to actually use the warranty on this specific phone, so i dont know if this is counted with the phone, since it is the item that came with the phone from verizon. (a few years back, the charger on my motorala phone just stopped recieving charge (there wasn't any explaination as to why, other than it stopped working, and when i took it in, they tested to make sure the phone wasn't the one not recieving the charge, and when it was the charger cord they traded me a refurbished one. (just the cord not the charger that it plugged into (Because it was the cord not working))
    thx!

    Okay, I tried really hard to excise out the facts of what exactly you are talking about.  Very difficult to understand.
    1. Yes, the charger that came with your iPhone is covered under Apple's 1 year warranty ... but it is only covered for manufacturer's defects.  It's not covered if your "kitten chewed on it" ... if that's what you were saying at the top ... not exactly sure.
    2. You need to use a 30 pin cable to charge your iPhone.  You cannot charge it by something that plugs into the headphone jack ... if that's what you were saying is how the other charger works.

  • HT1349 check if my iphone charger is covered under the free 12 mothes warranty

    is my charger covered under the free 12 mothes warranty

    Yes, together with the Lightning cable.
    But if you expect to get a new one for free, the old one better have failed due to defect or design, not cause you dropped it from the 2d. floor, your pet hamster gnawed on it or any other such user-caused damage.

  • Lightning charger cable issue

    I Have an iPhone 5, my daughter has an iPhone 5c & an iPad mini. As you are aware they all use the lightning charger.
    I've had to replace my cable for my iPhone 5 as it seemed to have the same issue as the majority of other people have with this cable. Now Im having to replace the cable for my daughters iPad mini, which is now costing me another £15, which I consider to be unfair. When there is clearly an issue with the cables and it's something that is needed, so I'm being forced to pay for something that is clearly not built to last.
    Do you consider this to be right?

    I've got an iPad 3 and never had to replace one. I have an iPhone 5 and 7th Generation iPod Nano, with spare cables and never had to replace any of them either. Apple will replace your cable under your 1 year warranty as long as it is not accidental damage.

  • HT5521 How to test Lightning Charger cable

    We sell devices (male lightning tip) that will charge iPhones/iPods/iPads that have a Lightning socket.
    Our device therefore has the Apple Male connector.  How can I attach an electronic load to verify the power output capability of this device?
    First I need a female Lightning socket then the best solution for authenticating without an iPhone/iPod or iPad connected.  Custom hardware is acceptable.
    Since we load many of these at a time, a full blown ATS is not an option.

  • Is battery replacement covered under the warranty?

    I've got an ipod touch and the battery is really bad now, needs to be replaced. Under the service page it says that it'll cost me £59 for battery replacement. However I still have my 1 year warranty until May 2012. So does the warranty cover the battery replacement or not ?

    RicardoCC wrote:
    yes, it's covered by the warranty
    I'm not sure that's correct.
    Warranty covers manufacturing defects, including a defective battery, but it does not cover the replacement of a battery that has come to the end of its working life due to use. I suggest thilakshan that you check this page http://www.apple.com/batteries/replacements.html which explains this (although this maybe the page you have already seen).
    Another point to consider; there have been several posts in these discussions about poor battery life after updating the iOS. Perhaps you should check out some of those posts and make sure your problem is not that. After all, if you send it in and Apple say there is no problem with the battery (because it's the short-life-after-update problem) you will be no further forward.
