I am an American living in France and I water damaged my iPhone4s what are my options?

I am living in Europe for 6 months and recently water damaged my iPhone and it will not turn on. What are my options and can i simply just take it to the nearest apple store?

Yes go to the Apple store.
There you will be able to purchase a new phone.
Try keeping the new one dry.

  • Living in france and having a french billing address, how can i download movies in english?

    I live in paris and therefor have a frnehc billing address. This by default only gives me access to the french store, which by default only allows for movie downloads in french versions. It's really frustrating, and i don't know what to do. Anyone living in france and found a way to download movies in endlish from the french iTunes store?

    If the French iTunes Store does not offer movies in English, then you are out of luck. You must use the store for the country in which you are a legal resident and for which you can provide a payment method with a verifiable billing address.

  • What are the options if one iPad was stolen last week and Apple created a bug which the burglar can turn off "Find My Phone"?

    Last week, my gf was stolen and lost her iPad. I thought that everything was lost because "Find My Phone" didn't manage to track the iPad location so the police could do something.
    Today, I ended up reading this article (http://9to5mac.com/2014/04/03/ios-7-bug-allows-anyone-to-disable-find-my-iphone- and-bypass-activation-lock-without-a-password/) which tells me that the iOS 7.1 presents a bug where someone can deactivate the "Find My Phone" function without the password.
    What are the options here so I can rehave the stolen iPad, which Apple helped the burglar to keep it or even sell it?
    Appreciate your cooperation

    Apple didn't "help the burgler" do anything. Did she have a passcode on the device? If so, the thief would not have been able to access any of the functions needed to disable Find My Phone. Also, if the device doesn't show up in iCloud's Find My Phone, it may be that it is simply turned off, or not connected to a network.

    My ipod nano 6th gen fell out of my pocket and the screen cracked badly, is there any coverage for this under warranty? I just bought it a month ago. If not what are the options for getting it fixed? It is pretty frustrating, it fell from about 3 feet out of my pocket and now looks like it was beaten by a hammer.

    he advises restarting by inserting the OSX disc and pressing down the C button to reboot from there then selecting disk utility, hard disk and repair.... Does he mean me to hold down the C key on the alpha keyboard or the ctrl key?

    That's where I would begin, too, with
    Repair Disk
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.TStatus of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it saysanything but Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need touse autility like TechTool Pro,Drive Geniusor DiskWarrior
    First we need to determine if the issue you are experiencing with the computer is software or hardware based. Once we have gotten things sorted out there should be time enough to make you decision about keeping or returning it.

  • If my hard drive disappears and is no longer running what are my options?

    this is a last resort. Dropped the MBP. it wouldn't boot up. wouldn't boot in any mode, did the resets in order. safe mode failed to work as did all the disk util recommendation. It finally booted off the install DVD. Hard drive icon there. Did an archive and install. I did all the disk util prior to  archive and install. permissions and disk checked out ok.
    Attached a USB external. started backing things up manually. SU came up and i did the combo update to 10.5.8
    Restarted MBP and the drive died, not even getting to login screen, onlly endless spinning at startup screen identical to problem after dropping it. installed Leopard on external. tried to set startup disk from internal. icon not there as if drive did not exist.
    After HD crash, ran diskutil in verbose mode, device not present when i used the name,
    note: this is the second external drive. i did the combo update on the external and it also died. couldn't see the icon. booted into single user mode. device no found. Again, safe mode failed to work as did all the disk util recommendation.
    at this time, the external is leopard 10.5, no update, firefox running with adobe flash update.
    1. SU combo update, never again. use the one from the Apple website in all future updates.
    2. physical inspection of inside revealed no loose connections, broken cables or wires.
    3. dropped the MBP on the side of the optical drive which i had to repair and reinstall. works fine now. PRAM battery in good order.
    4. looked at every discussion from every forum on here with varying results, all dead ends.
    if the drive isn't spinning or responding, is it dead or frozen? is $99 for diskwarrior the next step? Will it even see the internal drive, since no other freeware or shareware recovery apps have been able to see the internal HD.
    what are my options? i had no backups made, i have no firewire cable or drive, i didn't know about time machine, i absolutely must have the drive restored, or the data.

    diskwarrior manual:
    To build a graph for the directory of a disk, all of the following must be true:
    1)The disk must appear on the desktop.
    2)The disk must be an HFS (Mac OS Standard) or HFS Plus disk (Mac OS Extended).
    3)The disk must be locally attached.
    4)There must not be any detected hardware problems with the disk.
    disk does not appear on HD. therefore i have to assume there is physical damage to internal drive, pull it
    install a new one and send the old one to data recovery.
    this here concludes today's discussion on "*** were you thinking when you didn't have a back up"
    also, investing in Firewire drives and cables is selling out to proprietary mandates that Apple thought up as one more way to tie up its users to Apple theology. reason one i have refused to put the money out for it.
    guess the man wins.

    On your friend's computer with an internet connection, log into the Mac App Store with your ID and download Yosemite from the Purchases section of the Mac App Store. The make a bootable USB install media using

    Then boot from that on your computer and install
    You need an internet connection to install via Recovery mode

  • Easy question I'm sure. imac hard full (500gb) mostly from iphoto. no capacity left. what are my options? I've thought of an external drive of 1tb and then a 2nd external drive of 3tb to back up both???? please help.

    Those are the options - more space is more space.
    Moving the iPhoto Library is simple:
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

  • My hard drive went out one of my Macs and I am trying to install logic studio on another Mac but the serial number is invalid. What are my options?

    My hard drive went out one of my Macs and I am trying to install logic studio on another Mac but the serial number is invalid. What are my options?

    Check that the serial you are using is the correct one..
    Typically the problem is either you are misreading the serial and therefore typing it in wrong. Check you are correctly entering zeros or O.. and so on....
    or...
    You bought the LP9 upgrade version.... which requires the LP8 full serial as well.
    If it is the LP9 upgrade serial.. (and not the LP9 full serial) you must enter your original LP8 full serial first and then the upgrade serial for LP9.. when it asks for it.
    Failing that.. you can obtain a replacement serial from Apple.. using this form.....

  • Yosemite is awful- unable to empty trash, volume options are haywire, error codes on file management, and files won't replace when moved. What are my options at this point?

    Like the topic - "Yosemite is awful- unable to empty trash, volume options are haywire, error codes on file management, and files won't replace when moved. What are my options at this point?"
    I installed this OS, and it looks nice, but it's terrible to use. I randomly have the volume controls get disabled, and sometimes the volume menu in the system tray does nothing when adjusted which I've never seen in an OS before. The trash won't empty. When I try to drag and drop newer files over existing ones, nothing happens. The old ones just stay there. I have to delete the old ones and then move the new ones. And when I go into the protected files to manage audio plugins (I make music), the first thing I hit are error codes galore, and password prompts that either don't popup when they should, or don't execute the command after I provide my password.
    What can I do now that I installed the flames of **** onto my computer?

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
    sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    resetp
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • I just downloaded itunes, and when i go to music there are two options. You can either go to the itunes store or scan for media, and when I click on scan for media it does nothing. Help?

    I just downloaded itunes, and when i go to music there are two options. You can either go to the itunes store or scan for media, and when I click on scan for media it does nothing. Help? (I tried deleting itunes and re-installing it but apparently itunes was still on my computer so it asked me if I wanted to just check and see if there were any issues or missing software, so I did that but i still had the same problem.)

    Hi jbserious,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    It doesn't sound like the iTunes software and its components installed completely.  The article below will walk you through some troubleshooting steps.  Is this your first time using iTunes, or do you have an iTunes library from another computer that you want to move to this one?
