Does the warrantu cover water damage

Does the care plan cover water damage?

warrenty covers all issues with a device which was something it had when you bought it or something which was caused by the production of the device
anything after that like dropping and watering and drilling a big hole in it is not a warrenty thing
could be an insurance thing though
these are general warrenty things not just apple ones

  • My iphone got wet? does rice work? does the warranty cover water damage?

    i spilled a bit of water on it, and the screen is not responding.

    Power it off and put in a sealed plastic bag with uncooked rice and do not touch for at least 3 days.  There's a very small chance it will work again, but even if it does, it's likely to have new problems develop
    The standard iPhone warranty does not cover water damage, and in fact is completely voided by water exposure.  Unless you purchased AppleCare+ or other hazard insurance, the best you can hope for is an out-of-warranty replacement, price varying with country.

  • HT1349 Does the warranty cover external damage?

    I've had my Iphone for less than a week and I have just dropped it and the screen has smashed.
    Does the warranty cover it?

    If you purchased AppleCare+ coverage when you purchased your iPhone, your accidental damage would be covered for the cost of the "deductable" ($49 in the US). If you did not purchase AppleCare+, then as Kappy said you will have to pay for replacement.
    Regards.

  • I am a new iphone 4 user... I have insurance what does the Manufacturer Cover in damages or design flaws ?

    I recently was talked into upgrading to an iphone 4.....I Love Apple and all of their products and accessories!!! My son & I have become computer genius
    within 5 minutes, there is actually an app for everything....Except a design flaw or water/steam damage? I was hoping to resolve this unfortunate experience!!!
    I had my iphone 4 in the outlet in the hallway near my bathroom.. I love the 80's I Heart Radio App...Apparently, the phone has water damage and needs to be looked at or replaced. I have been to 3 AT & T Stores before I received excellent customer service by speaking to the store manager...I had a different design flaw with Moto Atrix was still within the Manufacture waranty. They said it was a desin flaw with the keyboard...not able to fix and would have to pay the deductable.. That is not good enough!!! I buy everything i this i that!!! I can't live without my iphone I have money with Starbucks and also linked to Shell Rewards
    and Speedway... Not to mention all my personal numbers, emails, facebook friends.....The phone was not dropped in water and was not in the same room as water but being 10 to 20 feet away something with the steam set off the water display for water damage??? I don't know why this is? When I first started on my quest with AT&T I thought I would have a grace period or design flaw? Please help!! I am unable to conduct daily day to day things without my iphone I was advised if they cracked my SIM card it's broken forever???

    If the little built-in water detector on the iphone shows positive, ie water damage, then Apple will not do anything for you under warranty. The best thing that they will offer you is a swap to an identical (new phone) at a price around £150 in UK or the equivalent in your own country.   If you are backing up to iCloud (or your computer), the new replacement unit will be able to load up all your old information etc. everything apart from synced data like music which you will need to re-upload.
    You could argue that the water damage sensor on the iPhone is too sensitive etc. but Apple don't respond too well to this although you will be in a better position (and will be listened to more sympathetically) if you have bought AppleCare for your iPhone.
    I know that this is annoying but I hope that you manage to get your problem resolved soon.

  • Does Ipod Warranty cover water damage?

    I got it about a month ago and I I forgot to take it out of my pocket and it went through the washer. Will the warranty cover that? I was also reading something about a single incident coverage within 90 days...what does that mean?

    I have an extended warranty that I am looking at now for my glasses which I purchased a sears optical. It states for any reason or fault, manufacture or user abuse they will be replaced at no questions asked.
    I am also looking at my extended warranty that I purchased for my computer at computers plus in my home time that states damage of anytype will be covered. user abuse to even lightning damage.
    My cross pen that says for anyreason it will be repaired or replaced no questions asked.
    My video camera with extended warranty. Also states for any reason. I was quoted by the owner of the camera store that this meant even if I ran over it with my car, he said yes. Two months later I dropped it into the water of a pool and it was replaced on the spot.
    My craftsman tools. I broke my screwdriver while using it as a prybar. Told the clerk and he said no problem they have a lifetime warranty.
    bet there are many others out there.
    Anybody else have any or heard of any???
    I am sure that there are many others.

  • Does apple care cover water damages

    Does it cover water damages

    NOTE:  If you are out of warranty and purchased an Apple product with a credit card, discuss the warranty issue with the credit card company which you purchased the computer with.   They are the only ones who can at this point cover your product after it goes out of warranty with the manufacturer (Apple).
         If you have Homeowners insurance, place a claim with them.

  • HT3302 Does the extended apple care cover water damage to the iphone?

    Does the extended apple care cover water damage to the iphone?

    If you have AppleCare+, Apple will replace the iPhone for the "deductable", which in the US is $49. If you have the standard AppleCare plan, then accidental damage is not covered and you will have to pay Apple's out-of-warranty price for replacement. See:

  • Does the apple care  for iphone 3gs cover water damage?

    does the apple care + for iphone 3gs cover water damage?

    No.  Terms of the warranty call that "abuse".
    You can hope, and try:
    Turn it off, leave it off
    Put it in a pile of "dessicant packs" (shipping packs found in hard disk boxes), possibly in a plastic bag (NOT rice -- that has rice-dust which gets into the unit)
    Maybe try turning it on again in about 4-5 days
    But this is really a desperation move, and I would not do it myself (although others say they have tried it).
    Most likely you are paying for either a repair or a new unit.

  • Does applecare  cover water damage for iphone 4s?

    does applecare+  cover water damage for iphone 4s?

    Yes it seems so as the description says for up to 2 "incidents." Each incident is $49. More info here:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/S4575?mco=MjU5MTk4MjQ
    Im still sorta thinking about it myself. You'd be basically spending $150 for incident #1 and $50 for incident #2, but during the next 2 years only.

  • Hello, my MacBook just fell on the floor and there is a massive smash on the rear aluminum part. Is it fixable? Does the warranty cover this type of damage? If not, how much would it cost me to get it fixed?

    Hello, my MacBook just fell on the floor and there is a massive smash on the rear aluminum part. Is it fixable? Does the warranty cover this type of damage? If not, how much would it cost me to get it fixed?
    PS: I bought it on the USA, but currently living in Brazil . I guess though there is a apple store in the shopping mall.

    Accidental damage is not covered by warranty. As to cost to fix, we can not say as we do not know what internal/external components were damaged. Take the computer to an authorized repair center for assessment and estimate to repair.

  • Ive cracked my ipod touch 4g screen does my waranty cover accidental damage for cracked screens and if it does do i just take it into an apple store for repair?

    ive cracked my ipod touch 4g screen does my waranty cover accidental damage for cracked screens and if it does do i just take it into an apple store for repair?

    The warranty does not cover accedental damage like a broken screen.  However, some time the Genius at the Genius Bar of an Apple store will replace the iPod at not cost.  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar and ask. If not under warranty, Apple will exchange yours for:

  • Does the warranty cover cracked screens?

    Does the warranty cover cracked screens? I dropped it by accident?

    SantannaF, just what are you saying?
    - The warranty that covmes with the iPod does not cover a broken screen.
    - When this post was written, there wan an extented warranty, AppleCare that yo could purchase the increased the waranry period from one year to two years. It still did not cover accidental damage like a broken screen.
    - Now, Apple offers for a price, AppleCare+. That covers replacment for a broken screen for a fee of $29
    extends your coverage to two years from the original purchase date of your iPod and adds up to two incidents of accidental damage coverage, each subject to a $29 service fee plus applicable tax.1
