Do I still qualify for replacement?

I recently purchased a macbook from a friend of mine, he purchased it late last year but never got round to using it. In fact he never even opened the box it was shipped in.
I just received it and registered it a few days ago, I'm not happy with it so can I arrange apple to pick it up for replacement or does the 14 day replacement/refund policy start from when it was shipped?

The 14 day period started from the date your friend bought it. The date he purchased it would be on the original receipt which might be needed for warranty work. It is not always asked for but can be requested. You should get this from your friend.

  • My iphone 5 is not charging properly. Recently the USB cable was emitting sparks on connecting it to my laptop.This has resulted in physical damage of the wire. Is it still eligible for replacement since it is under 1 year warranty?

  • Does an ipod with a non functional power button still qualify for discount on a new ipod?

    I  have an old iPod Touch 2nd gen and my power button doesn't work. i was wondering if it would still qualify for the discount on a new ipod touch at an apple store.

    What discount is this?  Never heard of Apple accepting trade ins for discount on a new item.
    If you mean the Apple recycling plan, it is actually not run by Apple, but by a 3rd party recycling company.  They would be the ones to make the decision on how much you would get for your device.  Non-functional devices are not worth a whole lot though, so you should not expect much from them.

  • My iPhone is water damaged, can I still qualify for the out-of-warranty replacement eventhough I bought it in Mexico?

    My iPhone 4s was water damaged, and I want to know if I can have an out-of-warranty replacement if I take it to a US apple store eventhough I bought it in Mexico.

    I don't think so, but doesn't hurt to try.

  • Battery qualify for replacement?

    I've been having horrendous battery life as of late, an hour and 15 minutes max. So i've been looking into it, reading the forums, and downloaded coconut battery.
    My laptop is 14 months old (purchased december 2006)
    It has 221 battery-loadcycles
    and the currrenty battery capacity is down to 2488 from 5500 mAh.
    From what i can hear, since its under 300 cycles and under 2 years, i can take it to an apple store and they'll replace it for free? i just wanted to make sure before i make the trip. And is this something they can do on the spot?
    Thanks for any help1

    There's a good chance that they will. Here's the link:
    http://www.apple.com/support/macbook_macbookpro/batteryupdate/
    Be sure and print this article out and take it with you. There are several battery exchange programs, and sometimes Apple employees are not familiar with this one and so you need to have it with you. If they have a battery in stock, you should be able to just swap it out on the spot.
    Good luck!

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
    iPod Service Support and Costs
    iPhone Service Support and Costs
    iPad Service Support and Costs
    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
    1. iResq or Google for others.
    2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

    Yes. They'll still replace your iPod. Several users have indicated that they have returned damaged iPods and were still given a replacement iPod.

    Sorry, when you permitted your friend to do that, you forfeited the right to an out of warranty replacement.
    Apple makes it quite clear that if you or anyone else attempts to open the phone, not only is all warranty/support voided, but you forfeit the right to an out of warranty replacement.

  • What needs to be wrong to qualify for a replacement?

    My iPad has been messing up lately and just last night my "friend" cracked the screen.
    My question is what all needs to be wrong with it to qualify for a free warranty replacement?
    the internet occasionally turns itself off, the sound will cut out, it will refuse to interface with iHome (possibly iHome's fault though),
    I bought it in June, and have not done anything with it involving the warranty yet.
    Do you think this would qualify to be replaced?

    Yes, with the physical damage, and the absence of accidental damage protection, it would be an out of warranty repair.
    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.
    Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPad is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. Replacement iPads have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare service contract coverage, whichever is longer. Please see the AppleCare+ for iPad and Apple Repair Terms And Conditions for further details.

  • I've bought a iphone 5c from USA but the headset is not working properly its still in warranty,can i go for replacement of headset??

    I've bought a iphone 5c from USA but the headset is not working properly its still in warranty,can i go for replacement of headset??

    Since it is only the headset that is the problem and not the iPhone it would be better to just buy a new set and not let yourself be frustrated over it.  If you send anything to your sister before the one-year warranty is over, include the headset so she can exchange it at an Apple store.

  • My Macbook air flash had gone for a month and I saw Apple's Macbook air flash storage drive replacement program. I'm not sure whether that program is still available for the broken device or not. Now, I'm booting from the external hard drive. Thank you.

    My Macbook air flash had gone for a month and I saw Apple's Macbook air flash storage drive replacement program. I'm not sure whether that program is still available for the broken device or not. Now, I'm booting from the external hard drive. Warranty has gone in October 2013..
    I want to send back my macbook air back to apple store. The problem is that I bought it from US and now, I'm using it in Myanmar. If the program is free of charge for my device, it's worth trying to send back to US. Since mine is broken, I'm afraid Apple will take charges for reparing.
    So, if anyone having the same problem as me, I would like to get suggestion....
    Thank you!!

    I have no idea about how to handle the international aspect of your question.
    But here is the Apple writeup about the problem and the remedy.  Maybe that will help you.

  • I qualified for the 29.99 upgrade special, but it still charged me 49.99?

    I just upgraded to Creative Cloud from an upgrade special that said I qualified for a 29.99 membership for upgrading from Creative Suite. When I purchased the Cloud, it still charged me 49.99. I purchased this with the premise it would be for the 29.99 price.
    The upgrade offer that said I qualified was on this page:

  • Am I still eligible for an iPhone replacement..?

    I've had this phone for around 2 years? Anyways, I was just wondering if I could still be eligible for an iPhone replacement and I did purchase the Apple Care which expires in April 2013. The reason why I'm asking is because during the summer of 2012 I had to replace my iPhone due to a microphone issue and I did get a new one.
    However, the SAME exact problem is occuring again (Jan 17. 2013) and since my Apple Care hasn't expired yet.. am I still eligible for a second iPhone 4 replacement without any charge?
    Thanks in advanced! I appreciate all your answers...!

    Due o he device bein out of warranty it is not eligible for a free replacement. It is eligible for an Out of Warranty Replacement at the normal cost, $149 for the iPhone 4 and older models, $199 for the 4S.

  • My late 2009 iMac 27 inch hard drive just failed and is being replaced. It did not qualify for call back but I am wondering if there is others with similar issue

    As I stated my late 2009 iMac 27 inch hard drive failed and is being replaced.. I am being charged as machine does not qualify for the call back program..call backs are on 2011 machines.. However i am in shock that my segate internal iMac hard drive failed in less than two years.. are there others with similar issue? Also when I get machine back will new hard drive be stable .. How do I make sure my working environment is reliable.. I have all my data and work backed up and will be able to rebuild my system but I really do not want to have to go through this down the line again.

    Just to update everyone and maybe help people down the road .... It has been a week of **** .... I may have finally solved a problem that I have seen a ton of people in all different types of discussions around the world having trouble with ...... I am going to upload some pictures of what I was getting in the beginning and it came out of no where .... I had the random pixel problem with my display and to make a long story short I came across an article two days ago regarding internal temperatures and fan speed ...... I kept reading about apples approach which is not the point  .....  More importantly I dug deeper into temperature control and fan settings .... I discovered all kinds of software and there is only one in my eyes that can help anyone dealing with this display problem .... I will be honest,  I do not have the money right now for anything extra and am barely getting by and that is why I kept at it ... I figured keep trying different things because  a repair is out of the question ... http://www.crystalidea.com/macs-fan-control   -   This program has solved my problem - I get to adjust three internal temperatures inside my Imac and slowly but surely as the temperatures remained constant the display is fine .... Like new again .... I cant believe it ..... Turns out the ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 MB graphics card gets very hot causing it to not do what it is supposed to   ..... Anyone that has any questions do not hesitate to contact me ...... I am going to upload some pics .... They are not that clear but if you are going through this you will recognize the images for sure - There was   so many more variations but this should help out - Thanks to everyone that takes the time out to help people on this support site ....
