Has anyone ever got there ipod screen Repaired for free

I cracked my screen!!

Some users have reported in the past that Apple exchanged their iPod at no cost because of a broken screen. However, I have not seen anyone posting that in about a year or so.

  • Has anyone actually got the Green Screen feature to work?

    Has anyone actually got the Green Screen feature to work? I've been trying for about 8 hours, absolutely no success. I have followed the iMovie Help instructions and the examples on the internet, over and over again. I've tried every imaginable variation on the instructions. Nothing from my green movie shows up. The green in my video is pure green - 100% green, 0% red and 0% blue. Yet the non-green images in the video aren't getting displayed at all. Several other people have mentioned a similar problem on these forums and they are all "unanswered". Is that because this is an unsolvable problem? Is it an iMovie bug? Sigh. I'm a big fan of Apple but stuff like this gives them a bad name.

    After several more hours of diagnosis I have identified some conditions which can make Green Screen slightly work (but not much). The condition is as follows. The green screen clip must be carefully dropped at the beginning of a video clip, such that at least the first two seconds of the green screen clip (no less, but no more or the clip will become attached to the previous clip and then it's broken again) are displayed over the PREVIOUS video clip. But the green screen will not work on the previous clip, only on the second clip. So you will always lose the first two seconds of the green screen video. It took me a lot of experimenting to discover this anomaly.
    Clearly this is a bug, but since not all users on the internet experience this bug, (some online videos shows that Green Screen actually works as advertised) it's most likely related to the video card driver. My video card is an ATI 4870. If you have such a card, there's probably no hope that you can get this feature to work unless Apple fixes the driver or possibly the iMovie application, or you use my tricky workaround.

  • Has anyone ever returned an iPod Touch?  I am thinking about doing this

    mine was a gift, and I know it was purchased at a store (not an Apple Store).  Do I need to return it to the store or do I return it to Apple directly?  Probably the store, because Apple isn't going to refund me my money.  I am sorry to say after having this for 3 days, and after all of my excitement of getting it, I am terribly disappointed, all because of the Wi-fi issues.  Not staying connected is not letting me even play with half the features that this has that my old Classic iPod does not.  It really isn't much more fun than my Classic without being able to use Wi-fi!

    Wifi Issue:  I got the iPod Touch on Monday, and got it hooked up to my home wifi network, but couldn't access the Internet or YouTube or Facebook. 
    then on Tuesday I finally got it connected and last night I was watching Youtube, and checking Facebook and loving it.  I had to restore the whole iPod and start all over.
    Then today (Wednesday) my iPod shows I have a strong WiFi connection in my house, appears that everything is in working order, other devices in the house are connecting with the network, but I cannot access youtube, facebook, etc.  I did unplug my router, turn off of the iPod by holding the home button and on/off button until the apple showed up, I reset the network settings, changed them even to WPA....and all I get is a symbol that says I have WiFi connection, but can't connect to anything.  I did not try to completely restore the whole thing again today.  I thought about it, but if that is what it is going to require for me to get it running every day then forget it!  It isn't worth my time!  I am just sadly disappointed.
    Unless some miracle happens over the weekend or before then, I think I am going to return the gift that I was so long awaiting!  Just makes me sad.  But I am seeing so many other people having issues with the wifi connection.....frustrating! 

  • Is there any way to get my screen repaired for free?

    So I set my phone on a stack of towels on vacation while I took a shower, It slipped and fell off due to the angle while I was in the shower and the screen is smahshed. I have applecare, but I dont have the extra money for a full on replacement.

    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 5s. 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.
    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. Start with Google to search for these.

  • Has anyone ever been able to leave openbox for good?

    I just went on a little adventure over the past couple of days trying out different WMs and DEs.  I went from XFCE, to gnome, to XFCE, then compiz stand-alone and back again.  I found that in every environment I was trying to make it feel more like my openbox setup.  Finally I realized that I needed to come back to my comfort zone.  I must confess, the main thing I miss from using other DEs is compiz and its wobbly, snapping windows.  Not to mention expo, and the desktop wall.  However, I hate dealing with all the crap that comes with a DE, and compiz standalone is just not there yet.  I also dabbled in awesome because I like the idea of being able to tile my windows, but I don't work enough in terminals to go that far. 
    Has anyone else ever tried to leave openbox? If so, why? Did you leave for good?

    The OP's question implies that you would want to leave Openbox.
    Btw, for those who enjoy the merits of tiling WMs, just configure your openbox to behave like one. I have the following in my rc.xml file which lets me very quickly arrange windows in a tiled layout with no wasted space on my desktop using the MoveToEdge and GrowToEdge actions. Using these actions on windows without decorations lets you created any tiled layout that you want (I tried Awesome before Openbox but just couldn't stand the limited layout options). All it takes is a few drags and clicks.

    You could of course skip the mouse and create some keyboard bindings to handle all of this too.

  • Has anyone had problems with the screen freezing for hours?

    Yesterday my phone kept freezing when I went to unlock it, after 5 minutes or so it would then go to the code unlocking screen but last night my screen frooze for 12 hours until it finally ran out of battery and shut down.  When the screen freezes there is no way to force a shut down...can anyone help?

    If the screen freezes, reset the phone - press both the home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears (~10 seconds).  If freezing recurs frequently, restore the phone.  See Appendix B of the User Guide:

  • Can i get my cracked ipod screen replaced for free?

    I don't have Apple care, but i read on apple's site that if you come in for a repair within a year of purchase that they'll give you the service charge for free. Is that correct? obviously i would pay for the screen still, but if i could save 150 bucks for service charge that would be nice. I've had it 5 months.

    No, that is not correct, and I doubt very much you saw that anywhere on Apple's site. You must have misread. The warranty does not cover accidental damage.
    As to repair, Apple does not repair iPods, but will replace the entire iPod for a flat fee; see the Repair Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq/
    There are independent iPod repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipod repair".
    Regards.

  • Okay friends seriously- has anyone ever restored their iPod?

    I'm going on almost an hour of my iPod restoring itself to factory settings. Im thinking that something is wrong because the status has said "waiting" for about an hour.

    Well..I am kind of in the same boat. I just received the Black 80GB Video iPod. Now mind you, I have had an iPod before, so I am familiar with it all. But this one decided to corrupt itself within the 2 days I have had it. I am not sure what caused it, whether it be the latest version of iTunes (which I have read has some bugs) or something I loaded onto it (music, movies, tv shows, etc.). Who knows? What I do know is that it is constantly in the Do Not Disconnect screen with the round "NO" symbol above it. I have tried to reset it with and without connecting it to the computer. If it is not connected, it tells me in 4 different languages to connect it to the computer. And when I do it flashes DO NOT DISCONNECT and charges the battery. After awhile it freezes on that screen. I have tried to restore it.....on two different computers, different USB ports and I keep getting the same message. It will attempt to restore with the progess bar going back and forth...and depending where the IPOD is in it's frozen or unfrozen state, the computer eventually gives me the message The iPod "iPod" could not be restored. An unknown error ocurred (1418). What the heck do I do. This all started when my iPod would not turn off. So I decided to hook it up to my computer to refresh it or something. But then I found out it is CORRUPT. How it got that way, I do not know. Any suggestions anyone? All I want to do is restore the **** thing so I can reload all my stuff back onto it. I am in Denver at the moment by the way...trying to get back to LA...so the suggestion of going to the Apple store will not fly at the moment. No pun intended. I am looking for a good ol' home remedy. There has to be something I can do. Anyone? Please.

    This has been an all day uphill battle by the way. Borderline Nuts at the moment.

  • Has anyone ever got versioning to work??

    Hi everyone,
    I've spent the last good while trying to get the versioning download protocol to work so that only the changed files are downloaded using a jardiff. I've seen these messages before on this forum and I have never found a successfull answer. Rather than first off posting the contents of my entire version.xml file, jnlp file etc, I would REALLY appreciate it if anyone could tell me if they have actually got this to work.
    thanks very much for any help on this at all.
    Brian

    ScheduleWorld.com uses this and it works perfectly.
    There are bugs related to foreign characters and the versioning servlet will bomb because of this. It's 100% reproducable, and I logged a bug but I never heard back from Sun (maybe 3 months ago).

  • Has anyone ever got good results with an autorouter?

    Hi,
    I just read a recent mesaage about using the autorouter.
    For the last 20 years i have been in designing PCB's, and I never met anyone that uses an autorouter...
    So I wondered if any of you ever used any (ultiboard or other) with good results,
    and if you did, what type of circuit was it?
    and is it possible to share a picture with us?
    I'm just curious...
    Stressed user

    I have gotten excellent results with the ultiboard 9 autorouter and understand that the newer versions are even better.

  • Has anyone ever experienced there 3g icon dissapears?

    Occassionally I notice my 3g "data" connection dissapears in the upper left corner of my AT&T iphone 4 where my reception bars are located. The bars remain but I lose my data connection that enables me to surf the web and send text messages. It happend today when I was driving in an area (San Jose, CA) that I tend to have low bars except this time I had full bars and my 3g icon dissapeared. I left it to see if it would restore and it took almost 3 minutes before the Edge icon appeared. About 10 seconds after that, it turned back to 3g. I know by turning the airplane mode or turning the 3g enabled feature on and off too in settings  sometimes will fix the issue. Does anyone else experience this? I've also experienced this on my past 2 android phones that I had on T-Mobile as well so it's not new to me. Just want to make sure I'm not the only one. My friends claim they never have this issue.

    This will happen when there is bad coverage. I get this every time I pass through one location.
    You are driving and checking your phone's coverage? I am on a train when I notice this happen.

  • Has anyone ever got the error message "illegal region number"?

    it happens everytime i stop recording something, and it never did it before today. and do you guys think this firepod is a perfect match with GB?

    I've only seen that error once in 3+ years of using GB, and it was on a crazy project combining 3 separate projects into a 4th.
    I spent 3 days trying to track down the problem and eventually gave up and reverted to a previous version of my project because I could neither track down the cause, nor fix the problem.
    The one thing I can tell you with absolute certainty is that it has nothing to do with your FirePod.

  • Has anyone ever got 640x400 resolution to work?

    I have spent all day with this trying different mode lines in switchresx with no success. Anyone have any luck with it?

    640 X 480 is the lowest resolution the MacBook supports. I don't think you will be able to force it into a resolution it's not designed for.
