    Water damage isn't covered by warranty, but you could always purchase a refurbished device from Apple.

  • HT4623 When I try to launch the Itunes app on my Iphone, it starts and then quits right away.  What should I do?

    When I try to launch the Itunes app on my Iphone, it starts and then quits right away.  What should I do?

    I would reinstall iOS 7.
    Open iTunes (11.1 or later) on your computer and plug your iPhone into your computer.
    Sync your iPhone with iTunes.
    Click on your iPhone device and from the Summary Tab, Back up using iCloud and/or iTunes.
    On your iPhone, open Settings/iCloud and turn off Find My Phone.
    In iTunes, click on the Restore button on the Summary tab next to Check for Updates.
    iTunes will completely wipe your phone and reinstall iOS 7.
    Setup your iPhone as new and restore from your back up.
    Check to see if the iTunes app is functioning correctly and not closing on you.
    I did this last night when setting Limit Ad Tracking kept closing Settings and taking me back to the Home screen. After reinstalling iOS 7, the issue went away.

  • What happens if I make a picture album on my ipad or iPhone and then sync with my Mac? Will it add a new album to iPhoto on my Mac? Also, what will happen if I add pictures on my ipad to existing albums that I made in iPhoto on my Mac?

    So what I have gleemed from this thread - is that Apple will not help me if an iPad mini is dropped and the screen breaks.  I would have lived without the insurance if I could have simply bought a new screen and then had it replaced by Apple.
    On something so fragile I would have expected a piece of glass to be a replacement part. But I am glad I made this post because now I no for sure if I break the screen there is no way to have it fixed by Apple and keep it in Warranty.
    Yup, kind of like anything else you accidentally break that is more cost effective to replace than to repair. Keep that iPad away from the toddler

  • IChat starts and then quits right away...

    The title pretty much says it all....
    I start iChat/Tiger up and and I see the iChat window briefly (say, 2 seconds or so) and then the application disappears. It does not give an error message and it's process is most definitely dead when I check Activity Monitor. I should note that the iChat previously worked without any problems.
    Interestingly enough, it looks like it does successfully log into AIM, because after trying to start the app 10 or so times, I got an AIM message saying that I've attempted to login too many times in too short a period of time.
    Any idea what's going on? The only event I can correlate is the fact that I downloaded the newest Tiger security update this past Monday...I believe that is the only change to my computer since it was last working.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Ralph,
    I have the same exact problem on two brand new macs, a mac mini and an ibook g4. I tried reinstalling ichat, which made it worse; my buddy list would no longer open, instead, the little black arrow appeared under the ichat logo, and then disappeared after a few seconds. I then copied and pasted that command into the Terminal app, and here's what I got:

    You have encounter Activation Lock, the antitheft feature of the iPhone. The previous owner did not remove the phone from their account. The phone cannot be used until they do. Return to the store and let them sort this out. It is very unusual for someone to "forget" to disable activation lock, as it is necessary to do so to erase personal information on the phone. So it is quite likely you bought a stolen phone.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

  • IPod classic hard drive needle sometimes skips (Red X).  When it doesn't and seems to power on normally, I start to restore it in Itunes and then it starts to skip again with the Red X on the screen.

    iPod classic hard drive needle sometimes skips (Red X). When it doesn't and seems to power on normally, I start to restore it in Itunes and then it starts to skip again with the Red X on the screen.  One time I was able to run the disk utility in time and reformat the hard drive, but the red x ended up appearing again and the hard drive started skipping again.
    Is there anything I can do besides get a new hard drive?
    P.S. I have also tried the banging on palm/floor trick and it hasn't worked yet for me.

    There nothing we can suggest to save a bad iPod hardisk, except to try some 3rd Party software to try repair the Hardisk.

    Yes, however you would be much better backing it up to iTunes to do this rather than iCloud.
