Cracked ipad screen with no warranty left?

A couple of days ago I dropped my ipad 2 on the wooden floor and a crack formed. It is focused around the front camera but goes down onto a bit of the screen. My warranty ran out a year ago. I've heard of getting out-of-warranty replacements. Can you still get one if there is no warranty left?

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.
The warranty will apply to the country of purchase. And if there is a problem needing repair you have to return it to the country of purchase.

  • Protecting cracked ipad screen from further damage with protector

    Howdy.... I have an ipad 2. The screen recently developed a spider web-type crack. I honestly have no idea how it happened. I did not drop it. I've been on a number of plane trips recently and noticed it after checking into a hotel. It was in my cabin luggage. Possibly someone dumped something on it in the overhead bin, or it got tossed around??
    Anyway, it does still seem to function completely fine. Towards the edge of the screen on one side there is about 1 mm of depression/displacement of the sides of the fracture. Otherwise the cracks are non-displaced. I have no problem using it.
    I am in a country with no apple stores. I could submit to an authorized repair place and wait for it to be repaired. However, I am anticipating ipad 3 coming out soon and I am wondering about the option of simply not fixing the screen at all.
    I bought an ipad screen protector and put it on the screen under the theory that this might inhibit cracks from propagating further. Anyone have any insight or ideas about this? What happens when you use a cracked ipad screen over time? Does it inevitably get worse?
    I am wondering if I can just use it as-is with the screen protector until ipad 3 comes out. The cracks are actually hard to notice during actual use, with the screen on.

    The glass is laminated structure, the top layer is oleophobic plastic very thin, then there is the sensor and finally the glass. Same for ipad and iphone. See below.
    If it works, keep going. Since you plan to buy a new one anyway. A case of 'its broken, but no need to fix it' !

  • Spontaneous Crack in screen with out physical damage.

    I am very discouraged to even post in this forum in the first place but none the less. Here is my situation. I purchased my Sony Xperia from a Tmobile retailer. The phone has been amazing and up until this point ive had no problems. I always have my phone in my pocket. if not its in my purse or on the charger. Today after leaving work , i retrieved my phone from my pocket to realize there was a crack in the screen. My first reaction was disbelief. How can you crack a screen with out dropping it, throwing it or inducing physcial harm to it? . My second reaction was even more disbelief. The crack is internal. If you run your fingers across the screen you can feel no crack its literally inside the phone. It looks like a peice of hair stuck on my phone. Here is my concern. I went to my local tmobile retailer who suggested since i had insurance to pay $175 deductible and then $50 for a loaner phone while my phone is fixed. Now if i would of damaged myself i would of payed this money . But i didnt damage my phone and im a single mother with bills i cant honestly be expected to dish out this type of money for an obvious defect. Then they told me to contact Sony, which i have since done and I wasnt very encouraged by the phone call. The Representive kind of gave me round about answers like . " I cant say its a known issue, but i can say were having some trouble".  Or when i asked if it could be covered under warranty. I cant say we have to make sure you havent caused any physical damage to cause the problem.  So in other words I have to pay to ship the phone back to sony , i will be with out a phone for up to 14 days for a "possibility" of them maybe covering it under warranty.  Further more, how can you say its not a known issue, I've done my fair share of research and this is obviously a common problem with this phone and its predecessing versions. So Please Sony, could you enlighten me . What are the chances that you will honor your warranty, or at least look into this issue with integrity , because from what i can see is there is alot of blame being put on the consumer. What happen to belief in the customer or customer satisfaction. I really do love this phone but i am very dissapointed at being put in this situation.

    I'm in the same situation left without a solution. My front panel just cracked by itself in my pocket. And the crack was also inside, so it was obvious that it wasn't caused by physical impact. I sent it to repair center, but of course they gave standard answer: "The damage is caused by a physical impact". But when I asked them to prove that, they didn't answer anything. And when I showed them links about the same problem which many users are confronted, they just gave me the same standard answer. For a repair they asked me $ 271. I unquestionably refused to pay $ 271 for a already $ 1000 premium phone for which damage I'm not responsible for. So they sent the phone back to my mobile operator from where I bought the phone. The phone operator also refused to meet me although I've been their client for a long time and bought 2 phones from them. Then I sent an official letter to the operator also giving them examples of other users. In the end they gave me some weird answers and didn't mention anything about the examples of other users. But, hey, they were willing to pay me $ 7.5 for moral damages. $ 7.5 for a 1000 phone for which I would have to pay another $ 271 for repair. It is laughing over the customer. Them I sent an official letter to customer protection agency and they basically gave me the same answer as my phone operator. Then I asked the expert to say something about the damage, but all tehy could tell me was that they can't prove anything. All this has lasted already about 6 months. And I can't use the phone properly because the front panel acts as a touch panel. So much of the Sony's over $ 1000 premium phone and excellent customer support. Back in the old days Sony was known for their quality products but not any more.

  • Can I share my Ipad screen with a remote PC/Mac?

    For work I need to be able to show someone on a remote computer how an app on my ipad works. I have seen a few differents way to sync my ipad with a computer in the same network, but is there a way to share my screen with a computer on a different network?
    Thanks for your help.   

    I think perhaps you missed my point. No, you can't use GoToMeeting or any other such system to share your iPad's screen directly. You need to use one of the solutions such as Reflector to mirror your iPad's screen to your computer. Then you use one of the screen sharing solutions to share your computer's screen with the computer on the other network.
    Regards.

  • Is it okay to clean my ipad screen with alcohol when I have a screen protecter on?

    So I was told by my family members to wipe my ipad with alcohol as my screen was dirty. I have also recently found that alcohol wrecks the screen. However, I did have a screen protecter at the time. Is this okay?? Is my screen wrecked/ will be wrecked?

    You would need to ask the manufacturer of the screen protector that question. I would not use alcohol on my iPad even with a screen protector, though. A damp (and I do mean damp, not wet) clean cloth should suffice for any cleaning needs. If your screen protector has a substance on it that can't be removed with a damp clean cloth, I'd advise replacing the screen protector, or at least remove it from the iPad before you attempt to use any other cleaners on the protector.
    Regards.

  • How can i watch video on IPAD screen with Apple TV?

    i have apple tv and itune libary on the same network.
    i am wondering if i can watch movies stored in the libary on the ipad screen without turning on the tv or the computer. i have no problem watch the movies on TV thru apple tv. thanks.

    If your computer is turned off, the iTunes library is no longer available to the iPad or the Apple TV. You can connect the iPad to the computer and use iTunes to sync your library to the iPad; this copies your music and movies to the iPad, and you can play them whenever and wherever you wish.
    If your iPad does not have enough memory to store all your movies, use the "Selected movies only" option and check off the movies you want to copy; the rest will not be copied.

  • How put apple store apps on the iPad screen with others like internet , face time all etc how?

    How put apps on screen with another's like internet , face time have already in screen . Now want apple store apps on screen how?

    If you tap and hold down on an app icon it will begin to wiggle. While it wiggles, you can drag it over to the edge of the screen and hold it about half way over on the screen for a second or two and it will jump to the next screen. You can drag one app on top of another app to create a folder if you care to do so.
    When you are done, tap the home button and the apps will stop wiggling.

  • Cracked ipad screen, warranty job?

    My ipad 4 is 6 months old, can I get the cracked screen fix by apple under warranty?

    EE is in essence financing your iPad purchase. They paid Apple much more than the replacement price, and you'll end up paying EE more overall for the iPad then you would have done if you'd bought the iPad yourself, though EE hides that cost in their contract cost.
    Regards.
