I have dropped my iPad3 and the glass shattered what should i do

I tripped and fell, my iPad glass shattered. It still workes though. What are my options? the Apple store will not repair it, just replace it for $299., Why can't they repair it. Are there any authorized dealers to repair it?

Did you buy apple care plus? If so, then they will fix it with a $49 service fee.
If you didn't, then yeah, you're on your own. Broken screens are considered 'accidental damage' and not covered under any warranty.
You can go to the Apple store and pay their price.....which is really a fee to exchange your broken one with a refurbished replacement. On the upside, you keep your warranty. Unauthorized repairs are cheaper, however using any of them will void any remainder of your factory warranty. Anything that goes wrong, even if it's not related to the glass breakage, will be attributed to the glass breakage.

TS3274 I have an iPad 2 that was dropped and the glass broke.

I have an iPad 2 that was dropped and the glass broke around Christmas break. I took it to a local computer repair company and they changed the glass. However, ever since that time I have had some problems with the wifi. I do not have the range I once had? For example I can walk out of the room that my verizon jetpack is in and loose connection. I have also had issues with my Keynote presentations loosing connectivity to Apple TV through the blue tooth. Q What are my options beside getting a new iPad?

Some iPad users have been able to revive their dropped iPad. Turn the iPad over and give it a HARD SLAP on the back. May take several slaps.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

I dropped my ipad and the screen went blank. I cannot get it to come back on.

Try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears. If that does not work you need to take the iPad to an Apple store genius bar to have it evaluated by the technicians.

I dropped my ipad and the background is red?

I dropped my ipad and the bakgroud is red, still works but has this re ting to it? How do I get the background back to normal?

Some people have reported smacking the back of their iPads to correct the colors. I have no firsthand experience with this method.

HT1414 my ipad 2 is in recovery mode but when i start up itunes and press restore itunes stops working and the window closes, what should i do?

my ipad 2 is in recovery mode when i plug it into itunes and my comuter to restore it itunes stops working and the window close, what should i do i really need my ipad if anyone knows how to fix it i would really apreciate the help.

I assume that you mean that the iTunes window closes. Quit iTunes, reboot your PC and try again. The iTunes software might be corrupt and it may require reinstalling iTunes on your computer.

ive got the iphone 5s 4 weeks ago.today the screen turned blue and the phone turned off . i tried several times to turn it on but i doesnt work even by using the power and the home button. what should i do ?

Hi vanessato,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I recommend these troubleshooting steps if your iPhone does not turn on.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Best,
Jeremy

You don't need a new one just the glass replaced.
Good Luck!

HT3302 I dropped my Ipad and the color is distorted. All other features are working just fine. How do I fix this?

I dropped my Ipad and it fell on its edge. All features work. However the color display is totally distorted. What can I do.

I just did this when I dropped my iPad only about 12 inches onto the floor. After consulting with Apple and being told I would need to replace my screen or get a replacement iPad both for $250, I decide I had nothing to lose by trying my idea. While the iPad was off, I gently but firmly tapped each side on a hard surface. I then turned it back on...and magic! All the correct colors were restored. I think that the drop must have loosened the metal back/sides or things shifted internally. We'll see if this is a permanent fix, but it seems to be fine!

I dropped My ipod and the screen broke..please help me!

Ok..
I have a 30gb Video IPod. It fell out of my pocket onto concrete and the screen has gone white apart from a yellow/black splodge with blue patches all over the screen. My warrenty has run out so is there any way i can fix this myself or do i need to send it to apple? Theer isn't a scratch on the actual glass though...!
Please help!!
