Clickwheel/Menu buttons stopped working + ASP/Warranty question

Today, my year old 2nd gen nano's clickwheel and menu button stopped working. The hold button works, Itunes sees the thing, disconnecting the headphones does what it supposed to do and everything appears to be in order, except for the buttons. Neither resetting, nor restoring the software did resolve the issue and I am left with a small, elegant, brushed aluminium finished brick with music in it.
Luckily, an Apple ASP isn't particulary far from where I live and I could and probably should bring it there. However, I am currently in a country that is not the one I bought the Ipod in and my purchase receipt and anything else that might have came with it is some 3000 km away.
Does anyone know if bringing just the player to an ASP (it does have a serial number) has any remote chance of getting a warranty repair? And, if not, is it worth it even bothering with the repair, in terms of cost?

  • Menu button stopped working on my Ipod mini

    Heading basically says it all, I am stuck in the same playlist unless i reset the ipod. All other factors of the clickwheel still work. I can hear the menu button clicking down just the ipod won't respond to the pressing of it.

    Hi,
    I have exactly the same problem, and so do dozens of others from what I can determine on the 'net.
    Menu button is still working as the reset function works fine (reset does not work unless both MENU & SELECT are pressed together).
    Have tried loading latest software, and then reverting to original software - problem is still the same.
    Anyone solved this problem, or have any ideas?
    Thanks

  • Menu button stopped working

    So I've been having troubles with my menu button. Sometimes the button works but most of the time it doesn't. All the other buttons work fine. I've tried just about everything. I even tried to restore it but that didn't work. I'm planning on going to the Apple store to have them check it out. Is there any way for me to exchange it for a different ipod though or am I stuck with the nano?

    Apple will only replace with another nano...
    However with the 5G the click wheel has definately shrunk... All that I can say is try hitting it a little different.
    Otherwise it could just be a small fault and a new device may not have this.
    Good luck with your trip to the apple store... Hope you find results...
    As I've had my 5G since it was released and I have had no issues to date.

  • Top button stopped working after warranty but I am told on models that qualify they will still repair for free

    Hello,
    As it seemingly always works in my life my top button finally got the issue that all iPhones have. The fact it's the well known issue that after approximately a year the top button ceases to work. I was told if your phone qualifies however they would still fix it regardless of warranty expiring for free. They mentioned cracked screens, I don't have a "cracked" screens but there are surely some minor scratches when it would mistakenly be pocketed with my eyes, would this cancel that out? I just want to check as if I can fix it great if not, This is definitely a bothersome issue and I had left google expecting things like this not to occur, I don't know if I could justify staying with a company if I was charged for an issue well known to be due to sub par quality of their top button, I mean if they all break clearly they aren't top quality.

    Instead of just speculating, ranting, and complaining about what might be take it in and have it checked out for yourself.

  • Menu button not working

    I've got a 6gb mini, had it since Sept 05. Yesterday the menu button stopped working, so I can't choose what music it plays, it only plays on shuffle as I can't get back up. I haven't done anything to it so I wondered what to do. I got my iPod in the US but I live in the UK. I bought the Applecare Protection Plan when I got it but forgot to enroll it, so I don't know if it's still valid. It should still be covered under the protection but I don't know if I've left it too late to register it. What do I do?

    If doing a Restore and reset do not help, very likely a hardware issue
    In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ at your own risk

  • Menu button doesnt work

    All of a sudden the menu button stopped working. It was fine one day then I put the ipod on charge, several days later when I tried to use it again the Menu button no longer works...
    Actually I just realized that the Play/Pause button doesnt work correctly either. When you push and hold it it does not turn the device off anymore although it would still pause/play the songs. The forward/reverse work ok.
    I tried resetting the Ipod using the updater and that didnt help. I also tried Menu + Select ... strangely enough it resets the device but after it resets the Menu key doesnt work.
    Has anyone experienced this problem?
    I submitted a service request. Is there any way of modifying the service request since I just realized that the play/pause button is screwed up also?
    Finally, when you turn the hold on/off is that supposed to turn the backlight on/off as well? I never paid attention to it but now when I turn hold on that also turns the backlight on...is that screwed up as well?

    I am having a similar problem with my mini - it turns on fine and will scroll through the menus, but will not respond by going back through the menus. Instead, it freezes on a screen and does not respond to anything except resetting it (menu & select button). Doesn't seem like the proper way to navigate through the screens and is completely frustrating. I was ready to cry yesterday at the gym because it wouldn't work and didn't know the reset "trick" until 3 hours later! I have also had many problems turning it off too. My brother who owns a regular iPod thinks I am crazy but at least I am seeing people out there with similar problems.
    On another note, I have to say I am completely disappointed with Apple. The company loves to portray this user-friendly persona, but in truth it is not that way at all. I received my mini in May and have just started to use it full force this month (October) ... now my 30-day phone support has expired and if I want "live" help I have to pay $50 for extended service. That's bull - I'd like some real answers but have been relegated to chat boards (no offense) and trying to troubleshoot the problem myself by finding close but not exact postings. It seems like such a deceptive bait & switch ploy by Apple. I am tempted to send my mini back for service but just read on the web site that I could be charged up to $100 for service. Again, sounds very sneaky so not sure if I should take the risk or live with a highly annoying product defect. Any suggestions?

  • Lock button stopped working,is it warranty case?in Apple will change my iPhone or will be repaired?  Sorry for my English

    lock button stopped working,is it warranty case?in Apple will change my iPhone or will be repaired?  Sorry for my English

    Nobody here can possible speak for Apple whether it is a warranty failure or not.  You need to take it into an Apple store or send it to Apple and have them evaluate it.  If they decide it is a warranty failure and you are still within your warranty period, then yes, it will be replaced with a factory refurbished unit for free.
    If it is determined to be due to something you have done, then the warranty does not apply and you would have to pay the out of warranty replacement fee.

  • I installed Canon Pixma MG5520, since, always get "canon quick menu has stopped working" how do I fi

    I installed Canon Pixma MG5520 on win 7, since, always get "canon quick menu has stopped working" how do I fix please?

    Hi thaluza,
    We can see if there are files in a folder called TWAIN_32 other than those related to the printer that may be causing a conflict with the Quick Menu. If there are, we can temporarily remove the files to see if this will resolve the issue.
    To move the non-Canon Twain files from the Twain_32 folder, please follow these steps:
    1. Go to Computer / My Computer and locate the C: drive, then double-click on it to open.
    2. Locate the WINDOWS folder, then double-click to open it.
    3. Locate the TWAIN_32 folder, then double-click to open it.
    4. Inside of the TWAIN_32 folder, you will see a folder for your printer as well as a WIATWAIN.DS file. If there are other files in that folder, you will want to move them to another location, preferably your Desktop by doing the following:
        4-1. Click on each of the other items in the folder other than the the WIATWAIN.DS file and the folder for your printer to select them. You will want to hold the the CTRL key on your keyboard while selecting each of the items until all of the items except for the two referenced above are selected. Please be sure to leave the WIATWAIN.DS file and folder related to your printer inside of the TWAIN_32 folder.
        4-2. With all of the items you want to move selected, please go to the EDIT menu and select the CUT option.
        4-3. Go to your Desktop (main window that comes up when you start Windows with all of the icons on it) and right-click your mouse in any blank area, then choose the PASTE option. The items you selected from the TWAIN_32 folder should appear on the Desktop.
    5. Try to launch the Quick Menu again.
    Hope this helps!

  • My middle "Home" button stops working at least once a day! Can I get a replacment?

    I got my iPhone in October of 2010 and for the past 2 months witch it is now June 2011, my middle button stops working for up to 2 hours sometimes and it happens EVERYDAY! It's very annoying and also another problem whenever I recive or am calling someone it makes this horrible buzzing noise and it makes it hard to hear the person(s). I want a replacment because this is annoying and stressfull. Is there anyway I can get a new phone...? Please help!!!

    The basic warranty is for 90 days. If you purchased AppleCare for your phone at the time you bought the phone, that's good for 2 years.
    In either case, call your local Apple Store and make an appointment to take the phone in for a repair. If there's something wrong with it, they'll fix it. You won't pay anything if you purchased the AppleCare. If you're lucky to get an Apple Store employee who is in a good mood, you won't pay even if your phone is not covered by a current warranty.

  • S110 menu button not working

    Hi, 
    We're on our honeymoon and been taking good pictures without any problems with Canon S110 until yesterday. The camera suddenly has the following problems:
    1. turn on normally but then immediately taking one photo no matter what mode it's on. 
    2. once the single photo was taken, the camera completely freeze except the display button working and the  delete button (working but not be able to select delete)
    3. shutter button and zoom in or out is completely useless
    3. MENU button is NOT working at all
    We have been trying the following:
    - new fully charged batterry
    - new SD card
    - turn off and remove both battery and SD card overnight
    It's very frustrated and we only have this camera on this trip. Please help!!!

    Just registered to report my solution.
    I have a similar problem with the PowerShot S110 of my wife's sister.
    At some time a menu button and all joystick buttons stop working.
    The problem was because of sticking zoom control (yeah it's very stupid).
    At the normal state zoom control must return to central position!
    When zoom control is on the left or right position - some buttons don't work.
    I hope this info will be usefull to someone.

    Ipods automatically have a one year warrany unless you have violated the terms. But you can pay to extend the warranty. It depends, they may fix it for free or they may charge a bit. Im not entirely sure. But id say theres a good chance that they may fix it for free. With battery replacements, ive heard that they give you an entirely new ipod with a charge of $80. So i think it depends

  • My top button stopped working, the physical button is broken.

    My top button stopped working, the physical button is broken. Apple genius' stated they will not fix my phone because there are signs of moisture in my phone. What does that have to do with my broken button, and why can't my phone functioning the way it is supposed to due to an issue that is not my fault?

    wow i dont know who you are getting your phone "fixed" through but its not apple.
    Apple does not charge prices like that.
    If you got it 1 year ago in september, the hardware warranty has expired by now unless you had your device covered by applecare insurance.
    and if it WERE covered by limited hardware warranty, an obvious hardware issue like the power button not working is covered under the warranty UNLESS it was due to accidental damage.
    So if you paid 198 dollars, chances are its because you dropped your phone and thats why the button was not working,.
    ..and even then, the iphone 4 out of warranty/accidental damage replacement fee is 149. not 198.

  • Volume buttons stopped working

    Since updating to 2.0 the volume buttons stopped working. I'm not sure what happened as my playbook has never been dropped or damaged. I keep it in a case that protects it very well. The buttons do not indicate the volume changing when pressed so I have to use the slider in the music app to turn up or down.
    Anyone else have or heard of this problem? My playbook is only 2 months old.
    Thanks

    I just got my PlayBook back from "repair" and my volume buttons don't work, the camera doesn't work, and when I go to pictures it doesn't work either. I don't know what to do, this hard reboot things doesn't work and my warranty has run out about now. But if they send it back and it's still an overpriced paperweight, shouldn't they take it in again and fix it proper? I used to be proud RIM was a Canadian company, now I'm just ashamed...
