Can a cracked screen smell bad

my ipod 5 screen cracked and it smells so bad is that normal

Did you find out what was causing that? We have an iPad with a cracked screen that smells like that. I have it in a gumdrop case and you can't smell it when it's completely enclosed. Wondering what that is though.

    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

  • Can the cracked screen of my iPod Original be repaired?

    I just recently found my old iPod Original that I had purchased several years ago. I forgot which generation it is. Is there any way I can still find a place that will repaire the cracked screen? If the generation needs to be specified, where can I look to find out? (I think the iPod Original is different from the iPod Classic, but looks very similar.)

    Here is the Apple Support Article to help you identify which model.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1353
    Normally if you look at the back of the case, you might find some serial numbers, the last 3 characters, tell you which model.
    Here is a 3rd Party site to help you also

  • Can a cracked screen on my ipod touch be repaired

    can my ipod touch be repaired if the screen is cracked?  thanks

    I have the exact same problem my iPod touch 4th generation fell a foot and hit the wood floor literally a foot to 2 feet maximum and the screen shattered.Like not even a big crack but like tiny little cracks and pieces of glass coming off. Is there a place that can fix screens? If you find one PLEASE PLEASE tell me I haven't used my iPod in 2 months and my sister was the one that dropped it.

  • Can a cracked screen be repaired at Genius Bar?

    I have. Cracked my screen - can it be repaired at Genius Bar ? How much will it cost?(UK) I have no insurance/warranty cover! Thanks for helping...

    It will cost you approximately US$219.00 to US$299.00 depending on the model.
    Apple will replace the entire iPad; they don't repair.

  • Can a cracked screen be replaced on an iPad2

    My girlfriend dropped her 3 hour old iPad and has cracked the screen, are they replaceable?

    As Ralph says, it is possible to replace the screen.  However, I believe that Apple usually won't do so, because the physical trauma that caused the screen to break may also have damaged other thigns, so you may end up having to pay more than the replacement price for repairs.  Try Apple first, but if they won't fix it, she'll only have two options: try a third-party repair shop, since the warranty is void at this point anyway, or just buy a new iPad.

  • Can a cracked screen be fixed?

    I slipped on a stair with ipod touch in my hand and landed with it glass down...the glass cracked.  It is 6 months old, can it be fixed?

    You can buy a replacement ipod at the repair price.  It will certainly not be free:

  • Can iphone cracked screens be repaired

    Can iphone screens be repaired?

    At this time some Apple stores in the US can replace the iPhone 5 screens.  To fix broken screens on all other phones, Apple replaces the entire phone.
    You can try and find a 3rd party repair shop, but you will void all service on that phone, warranty or otherwise forever.

  • Can a cracked screen be repaired

    And how much does it cost

    You can just google "Repair screen" and you will find lots of companies that will do it cheaper than Apple, but I think its always better to trust Apple over any other company.

  • IPod exchange for cracked screen?

    iPod exchange for cracked screen
    I'm told Apple can exchange cracked screen iPods for new iPods if you pay the fee of $100, or they can even upgrade for a higher fee.
    Will Apple exchange a cracked screen with the fee ($100) for a new iPod of a hand-me-down iPod or do I need the receipt? I am not sure I can get the receipt from the person from whom I got the used iPod. I would be surprised if they even have it.
    Plus, it's a 4th generation iPod 8G... I understand I cannot get the same, so what options will they give me? What would the fee be for newer iPods with more G?

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished 4G 8 GB for $99. They do not fix yours.

    Apple will only give you a 10% recycling discount if you turn in an old iPod when you purchase a new one.

  • Hi apple, I have the new ipad with retina display, i have however cracked the screen pretty badly. I was just wondering how much it is to replace this ipad with the same one. It is a 32gig. Thanks

    Hi apple,
    I have the new ipad (4th gen) with retina display. Yesterday I cracked the screen pretty badly. I was just wondering how much it is to replace it with the same ipad. I have the 32gig ipad with wifi.
    Thanks

    The iPad will be $329 AUD if replaced via postage service or $309 AUD if replaced at an Apple Store. Yes they will give you the replacement and take your old iPad so I would suggest if you can back it up to iTunes so that you can restore the back up to the replacement.

  • How can I get apple to warranty my iPod touch 4th gen? It has always had issues and seems to be a lost cause. Will not connect to wi-fi. It also has cracked screen, but that is not the issue.

    It has a cracked screen also but that is not the issue. I am willing to live with the screen

    Unfortunately, ANY signs of 'neglect or damage' automatically become the cause of any issues you're having. As in it doesn't matter if your screen was flickering before it was dropped, when they see the dent or cracked screen, that screen flicker was caused by the drop. Because they  have no way to know if you are telling the truth (it's nothing personal, they just literally dont' know) so any signs of damage become the reason for your issue. The only way out of that is if you had taken in your iPad and, even if you didn't get it replaced, an apple employee can have documented that yes, that issue existed before the drop.
    It's not fun, I know, but that's just how it is. Any signs of 'neglect or damage' and that 'neglect or damage' is the cause of your issues.
