How much does apple charge to replace the iPad 3 digitizer

Anyone know how much Apple charges to repair cracked digitizer for iPad 3?

I bought a second hand iPad 3 and because there was a dent on the corner and "evidence" that the device had been opened previously they refused to service it and said the device was "beyond economic repair." They said the repair charge would be $795.00, mind you, all they would have had to do was replace the digitizer and it would have been fixed, but the customer service rep told me they don't really do repairs anymore when I asked if they would just replace the touch panel. The unit is like new minus some light wear and tear and the digitizer was in one piece, there was just a small portion that was unresponsive to touch. So, after they presented me with the options to repair for $795.00, recycle the unit, or have the item shipped back, I decided on option C and bought a replacement panel on Amazon for $35. The repair was a piece of cake and now I have a fully functional iPad 3 again.

  • How much does apple charge to replace the back of a 4th generation iPod touch?

    The back of my iPod touch is really scratched up and I want to know how much apple will charge to replace the back for me.

    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". It is also possible to purchase parts and find instructions on doing a repair yourself, though it's not particularly easy. Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPod serviced by an unauthorized shop or perform a repair yourself, all further support from Apple will be void.
    I'd suggest you just get a case or skin to hide the scratches. Either will be much less expensive.
    Regards.

  • How much does Apple charge to replace battery?

    i am in need of a new battery for my macbook pro. how much does apple charge you? I know i have to take it to the genius bar and havem fix it for me. the battery alone cost $129 but im sure i have to pay a lot more than that since they are doing it for me. I know it can be different for every apple store but roughly how much?
    or is it better for me to buy the battery online for cheaper and replace it myself? If so, what site is the best and safest to buy it off from?

    Why not call the Apple Store and ask them?  Only they can tell you.  After all, there is labor charges and taxes to take into consideration.  No one here would know that information since this is an international message board of users like yourself. 

  • How much does Apple charge to replace cracked trackpad and keyboard

    So some idiot decided to wreck a couple of keys off my macbook and brake the plastic on the back of the keys... and then decided to try and superglue it back on and whilst in the process managed to get a bit of glue in the top right section of the trackpad. Then went on to try and loosen it etc and in doing so managed to slightly crack that area on the upper right of the trackpad. My question is how much will apple charge me to replace keyboard and/or the trackpad?

    Call your local Apple Store or take your computer in for an estimate. We can't give you an answer.

  • How much does Apple charge to replace a cracked screen?

    I bought my unlocked iPhone 3gs with a slightly cracked screen, and now I am looking around to see how much it would cost to replace the screen. More specifically, I am wondering how much Apple charges to replace a cracked screen.

    Genius at Apple Store replaces the entire front assembly of iPhone 3GS which includes the Front Screen, LCD, Home Button, Midframe for $99. All Apple Stores (6) in my area do this. If you want to go the Out of Warranty route with complete Replacement iPhone 3GS exactly like yours it would be $149 at Apple Store.

  • How much does Apple charge to replace a hard drive?

    I have a Macbook I bought in the Summer of 2008 (not sure the model, etc.) I know it was the smallest memory (a.k.a. cheapest model) if that helps at all.  I got a screen with a flashing folder/question mark this morning and everything I've read points to a hard drive failure.  I did all the troubleshooting that Apple has on the website and nothing worked.  I'm going to take it to the Apple store within the next week, but I was wondering how much Apple would charge to replace the drive.  For the record... I'm NOT tech savvy at all, and I am not going to replace it myself... I know it's cheaper, etc. but it's not worth it to me.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!

    The brand of hard drive isn't that important to me. They're pretty much all the same. As to size, whatever you think you might need. Look at the ones at Newegg.com. A large hard drive doesn't cost that much more than a small one.
    Since your old hard drive died you'll need to start fresh after you've installed the new drive.
    Drive Preparation
    1.  Start up from the installer disk (hold down the C key or hold down the Option key after you hear the chime) When you get to the Install screen select Disk Utility under Utilities on the top menu.
    2. After Disk Utility loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list.Click on the Erase tab and set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) and click Erase
    3. After it has erased click on the Partition tab in the Disk Utility main window.
    4. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    5. Quit Disk Utility and install the Mac OS

  • My harddrive failed, how much does Apple charge to replace it?

    Hi,
    My hard drive failed today:( Already called AppleCare and he diagnosed the problem but I don't have AppleCare so I'll have to pay for it.
    How much does it cost to have Apple replace it? It's a 320GB HD on my 13" MacBook Pro.

    I was quoted $600 a few years ago to replace a 350GB with a 500GB and it was a poor Seagate issue at 5,400 RPM.
    So it did it myself for $300 and got a higher quality 500GB Hitachi drive (before WD bought them) at 7,200 RPM, so my old machine is still fast.
    I recommend a 7,200 RPM 500 or 750GB drive, even a 1TB will future proof you well. The added speed gives added performance for a slight drop in battery life perhaps.
    A SSD in 480GB size is about $1200-$1500 or so, even $1800 for the new screamers, that's just for the drive, not including Apple's mark up.. Not worth it IMO.
    Throw some more RAM in it while you got the opportunity I think you machine can handle 8GB , use the free MacTracker to find out,, you might be able to stick more in there than Apple says.
    Apple quoted me $435 plus tax to upgrade my 4GB to 8GB,( it's only $200 something if you do it with a new machine as they keep the new 4GB RAM.) The same 8GB RAM can be had at Crucial.com for $70.
    So it certainly pays to do it yourself, Apple clearly doesn't want your business.
    Doing it yourself doesn't void your AppleCare or warranty as long as you don't break anything.
    You have 10.7, so your machine had 10.6 before, you need to format the drive HFS+ with a GUID then install 10.6, then to 10.6.8, then AppStore option click on Purchases and install Lion again, then all your third party programs from fresh sources and files manually from backup. (no migration assistant if you can help it) In that order for best performance.
    If you have a factory Lion Mac or not 10.6 disks, then you need a copy of yours or anothers Recovery Partition using this on 1GB+ USB formatted GUID OS X extended journaled, hold option boot from it to install Lion. You will need your Apple ID to download Lion I think.

  • How much does apple charge to replace front glass/screen?

    So I have a cracked front glass. I am wondering how much Apple charges to replace it? I called the closet store and they said they cannot give prices over the phone that I would have to come in.
