I have a crack in my rear-facing camera does the warranty cover this repair? It's about 5 months old.

If it was caused by a defect thenyes.  If caused by accidental damage like dropping then likely not. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store and find out.
If it is only a cosment defect, the warranty does not cover it.

  • I have a small dent in my iPad. Does the warranty cover this?

    I was walking down my hallways, and tripped over my dog, who was laying right in the middle of the hallway. I fell over, but suffered no injuries. My iPad did though. It's the new iPad 3, so I just got it a few months ago. I have a small dent on the back of it, due to my arm falling on it. I was afraid that the camera would not work (this is not the Retina camera on the front, it's the one on the back), but it works just fine. The upper right-hand corner of the iPad is dislodged fromthe metal-type shell, and when I'm using my iPad, I can see the light in the inside. The sleep/wake button still works, but the dent just looks horrible. I bought a warranty when I bought the iPad, but I'm not sure if it covers it.

    Accidental damage is not covered except to some degree with Applecare+ if you elected to purchase that.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • .. Does the warranty cover the screen? Mine cracked..

    .. Does the warranty cover the screen? Mine cracked.. My iPod's 4th generation.

    No. But sometimes if you make an appointment at the Genius bar of an Apple store they will replace your iPod at no cost.. Otherwise the exchange price is $99, $149, or $199 depending upon the capacity.

  • Does the warranty cover a cracked screen?

    My I phone 5 screen is cracked and I have 6 months warranty still does this cover it?

    No. when the screen was cracked that voided the warranty so you no longer have one.

  • Why does the iPod Touch 5th gen 16 GB, not have a rear-facing camera?

    I am looking to replace my daughter's iPod Touch 4th Gen 16GB, but I can not find a model like hers that has a rear-facing camera. The new 5th gen 16GB, only has a front-facing camera, where the 32GB and the 64GB have front-facing and rear-facing cameras.
    My question is, why is that?

    lllaass said it, because thats the budget version, its much cheaper. The 16GB costs 229$ and the other ones with the back facing camera 319$ or 419$.
    Apple always sold a budget version of the iTouch.
    With the 2G in 2008, the 8GB was much cheaper than the 16 or 32 GB.
    With the 3G in 2009, the parallel kept the 8GB 2G for a reduced price.
    The 8GB 4G in 2010 was also cheaper than the 32 or 64GB one.
    In 2012 - June 2013 they kept the 4G iPod next to the 5G.
    And now the only sell one model - which is the 5G due to the fact that only this model can run iOS 7, and they needed to remove a feature in order to reduce the price.

  • Why is the rear-facing camera of my iPad mini not working?

    The backward facing camera on my iPad mini has stopped working recently after having it for a bit over a year, i.e. when I go into the camera application the screen freezes when trying to take photos with the rear-facing camera. Any ideas what this is due to, and possible options of how to fix it?

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    If no joy... Try a Restore...
    1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

  • Rear facing camera on ios 5 crash...

    after i updated my ipad 2 to ios 5, my rear facing camera started to crash... the camera shutter will not open... my front facing camera is working properly... anyone is having the same problems???

    Have you tried closing the Camera app completely and seeing if it works when you re-open it ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Camera 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Front/Rear Facing Camera

    Hi - I'm looking to get a ipod touch (had a classic for years but lost it and desparately want to get it replaced).
    Anyway, I would really like to be able to go to concerts etc and be able to record things on the stage, or take photos with me in them as well as using it as a standard camera, so guessing I need one with a front facing camera as well as a rear facing camera.
    In the specs it says that the ipod 32gb is the only ipod touch with both front and rear - but I know that there's a 4th generation as well as 5th generation and its not clear to me which one the specs refer to - do they both have it?
    Would like to get the most cost effective one out there - not necessarily the latest out but it does need a really good camera and good video and music displays.
    Can anyone help please? Cheers.

    Yeah lllaass is right. I used to have the 4th Generation 8GB and now I have the 5th Generation 32GB! I am so grateful for my 5th Gen because the cameras are excellent compared to the 4th Generation. iOS 7 runs smoothly and everything is great with it. I will never go back to the 4th Generation at all anymore! I think 32GB is more than enough because personally, I use only 14GB which then means I still have 18GB left! It is plenty of space and it is $299!

  • A2107 Ideapad-rear facing camera

    I've read two different web site specs on the rear facing web cam, one says auto-focus, the other doesn't.  As you may be aware without auto focus the barcode scanner apps are worthless.  So I'm not sure why there are two different descriptions regarding this feature, but is this a hardware or software limitation of the device, and is there a work around?

    Have some modest help to offer about the rear facing camera.  
    I have an IdeaTab A21704 with the same terrible camera.  Software will NOT help the problem!  
    I removed the lens using jeweler's pliers. You might be able to do it with tweezers. Mine was screwed down pretty tight. The lens appears to be a simple 2 element lens.  I'm an astronomer so I'm familiar with different lens designs.
    When you're loosing the lens, be VERY careful.  One slip and you'll destroy the POS plastic lens.  Don't unscrew the lens out of the barrel, just turn to the left CCW a few turns.  Take the camera outside and set it on something solid like a deck post, then take a photo. Look at the image with a magnifier. Tree branches and powerlines are good subjects. If they're soft, turn the lens 1mm CW and take another pics.  If the image gets worse, start turning it CCW.
    You will eventually find a good focus point that is much better than the factory setting. Don't touch the surface of the lens. If it gets skin oil on it, use a Q-Tip with a "micro" amount of dish washing soap and water on it, then dry it with a hair dryer on the no-heat setting. This should make a big improvement.  
    Unfortunately, it will nothing about the terrible chromatic aberration / blue fringing. That's a result of the lens design and there's nothing that can be done.  We all will need to buy a different brand of tablet when we want to upgrade to KitKat OS.  Good luck.
    *This advise is from my own experience.  It may or may not be correct.  Fooling around with your devise could void your warrantee and / or seriously cause serious damage. Proceed at your own risk.
    HELLO LENOVO!!   DO YOU EVER READ THESE MESSAGES AND HELP US WITH THESE PROBLEMS?

  • Thinkpad Helix Ultrabook i7 Rear facing camera app

    Hi all, I would appreciate some help with the following.
    What software are you using to access the rear facing camera? I understand the rear facing camera is 5 MP and the forward facing is 2 MP.
    I have tried YouCam 5 which works well except for not being able to use anything higher then 640x480. I need to be able to take snapshot images at full resolution.
    Note: The tablet is running Windows 7 professional (Corporate SOE). I have tried the IBM software but cannot find any setting to switch from front to rear facing.
    Regards
    Tony

    As the Helix is usually shipped with windows 8 the photo app in metro is the one I use to take photos. As for windows 7 I don't really know. I can't recall a laptop having a rear camera and running windows 7.

  • Front and Rear-Facing Cameras not focusing...

    Hello all,
    Neither my front facing or rear-facing cameras will focus. I've tried every single hint and tip to try and get it to focus including restarting and a full restore, to no success.
    I was wondering if this is a common issue and whether or not Apple will repair it and how much it is likely to cost? I was also wondering if it's a fault with the cameras or something internal like the motherboard?
    Thanks
    Michael
