Confused. Is my iPod out of warranty or not? Just got Apple Care email.

I bought a 20gb iPod nearly 18 months ago. 6 months later the hard drive failed so i got it serviced. When it came back it was always freezing and i got so frustrated with it i left it on the shelf for a couple months.
When i eventually got around to seeing if i could get it repaired, the online repair site said the warranty expired. Fair enough i thought i should have got it fixed again right away.
Yesterday i check i my email and get this:
Your one-year warranty is about to expire.
This is your last opportunity to purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan for iPod.* For just £39 inc VAT, you get comprehensive service and support, and the chance to rock on for a long time to come
Im confused. Does this mean i got a new one year warranty when it was repaired?
Anyone else had their iPod repaired after more than a year of purchase but less than a year after a repair? I didnt get the full apple care but im tempted to pay the £39 then send it in for repair. Ill give apple a call on Monday but im just curious for now.

the normal warranty is one year from date of purchase, or 90 days from date of repair, whichever gives you the longest term
the warranty details are here...

but if apple says you are still covered then go for it, especially as apple failed to fix it the first time

    Is there an "APPLE STORE" in India or you just went in a reseller store?
    There is a replacement program for sleep/wake button for free. Just look for an Apple Store and make a reservation at Genius Bar.
    I have an iPhone 5, bought in Dubai U.A.E.
    It is a US model (model A1428) which is different of the model use here in Italy/Europe
    My serial number is qualified for battery replacement program.
    I thought the Apple Store wouldn't repair my phone because I bought it from another country , a different model and it is already out of warranty.
    The Apple store's staff just checked if my iPhone's serial number is eligible for the program and he replaced the battery for free today.

  • My ipod touch 4th generation will not leave the apple logo sign

    my ipod touch 4th generation will not leave the apple logo sign what do i do to turn it on and work ? please help

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Broken Lock Switch, iPod out of Warranty???

    Okay, here's the dilemma... The lock button on my iPod touch 4th gen recently stopped working, but my iPod is out of warranty. The lock button seems to actually be stuck in the iPod, and doesn't click or anything when I try to press it. It is actually jammed into my iPod. Since I didnt drop the device, and this was obviously a defect, will apple replace this for no cost even though I am out of warranty? Thanks in advance!

  • Home Button sticks, but out of warranty. Is this something Apple will replace, or am I out of luck until my contract is up?

    I often have to push the button 3, 4, or more times until the it works.
    It's been doing this for several months, but steadily getting worse.
    Phone is still useable, but if it continues to get worse, it likely won't be.
    I've seen other reports of this kind of behavior. Is this something Apple would replace, even though phone is no longer under warranty?
    Have iPhone 4 - have not yet upgraded software to 4.3.5.

    If you're out of warranty, the replacement fee is $199.  That being said, there are anectdotes of some Geniuses waiving that fee.  Never hurts to try.  Don't go with the expectation that this will happen and you may get rewarded.

  • I am using Tiger, 10.4.11, and have an iPod classic 120gb working fine.  Just got a 160gb classic and would like to sync it to same i-Tunes file.  It said "must have iTunes 9.0 or later to sync."  If upgrade i-Tunes to 9.0.2, will my 120gb iPod sync o.k?

    I am using Tiger, 10.4.11 and have an iPod classic 120 gb working fine with about 7 gb of music on it.  I just got another iPod classic 160 gb for my wife, and would like to sync it to the same iTunes file, but I got a message which says I must upgrade to iTunes 9.0 or later.  If I upgrade to 9.0, will my 120 gb iPod be o.k. with that?  Rumor:  I have heard that iTunes 9.0 or later changes the format of the music.

    Thanks to all for reviewing my question.  I am trying to avoid a possible disaster here, having to load about 90 cd's all over again.  If anyone knows, could you tell me what will happen if I download iTunes 9.0, and install it.  Will it copy all of my music into it, or fail to recognize it, or recognize 8.0 and just upgrade rather than replace it?  Thanks again.  Tom

  • Is there any way to transfer an entire library from an ipod to a new laptop (not just the purchases)?

    My laptop was stolen that had my itunes installed and was synced with my ipod classic. I now have a new laptop. Is there any way I can transfer ALL the music from my ipod to itunes on the new laptop, not just the purchases? I don't have access to all the CD's etc that I originally downloaded onto my ipod.

  • HT4113 I bought a second hand ipod 4 touch my other one just got stolen how do i get this passcode off and set it to factory?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen                          
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                         
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings         
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • IPod with dock connector is not getting charged with car charger and iTrip

    My iPod from 2003 with dock connector is not getting charged in my car by using the griffin iTrip with USB car charger. iTrip works, but not the charger. Maybe there´s not enough power output from the car charger? Only 5.0V with 400mA are coming out. iPod needs more? 12V with 1.0A?
    Does somebody have information about that problem for me?

    Has Apple dropped support for older model iPods?
    Nope. Support is still there, even back to the original 1G iPod with the wheel that actually turns. I have a 3G iPod, and it syncs just fine. There have not been any software updates for years, but the old software still works fine with the latest iTunes.
    You have to use FireWire, which you seem to be doing.
    Try putting it into Disk Mode first, then connect it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
    Does the iPod currently play music as it should?
    Do you have another docking cable (FireWire) that you can try? FireWire connectors often get worn and they no longer work, although the power connection can continue to work.
    Did you try the other FireWire port in the iMac?

  • Can you transfer everything from your ipod to a new computer, not just itunes purchases

    Can you transfer all of your info from the ipod back to the computer?  My computer crashed and I cannot get to the back up to transfer to my new computer.  I have only been able to transfer itunes purchases.
