I've cracked the screen of my iPad 3... What can I do?

Having dropped my iPad I've just noticed two hairline cracks across the screen. Can I have it repaired / replaced by Apple or do I have to live with the flaw?

Apple advise you to have them repair it as it is glass and you could injure yourself.
If you have the AppleCare plus it will only cost you $49. If you do not, then it is considered accidental damage and not covered. Cost to replace would be dependent on the type you have.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 or the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

    Often when watching a video, TV show on ABC or Hulu Plus, after going to the full screen, the Press Esc to return line in the middle of the screen does not disappear. What can I do to remove it so it does not detract from the viewing?

  • My screen got bigger and when I move the mouse, the screen moves as well. What can I do about this?

    My screen got bigger and when I move the mouse, the screen moves as well. What can I do about this?

    Actually as Roam said, you can keypress, Option + command + 8
    But i think wat you asking is that you dont want the screen mving when you move the mouse. Right?
    For that you can, goto, System Preference -> Accessibility -> Zoom -> More Options...
    Once you click more option, you'll get a window. Look at the bottom of the window for 3 options with bullet buttons. SELECT "ONLY WHEN THE POINTER REACHES AN EDGE" and click "DONE"
    Viola!!! You're troubl's are over!!!

    Out-of-Warranty Service
    If you own an iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will service your iPhone for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below.

    $229
    iPhone 4S
    $199

    A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in U.S. dollars and are subject to local tax.
    When setting up out-of-warranty service, Apple will request credit card pre-authorization for the maximum service fee listed above.  This amount will be deducted from your credit limit. The final service fee we charge will be determined during testing and may be less than the service fee listed above.
    Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPhone that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.
    Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPhone is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. iPhones that are repaired or replaced have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare service contract coverage, whichever is longer.

  • The screen on my iPhone 4 turned black while i was using it-it was not dropped or damaged in anyway. The phone itself is still working as it comes up in itunes when I plug the phone into my computer, but the screen is completley black. What can I do?

    The screen on my iPhone has gone black while I was using it. It just "shut off". The phone is still working  as I can hear/see it when it plugs into the computer, but the screen just wont turn on. I've tried the soft reset "holding down home and lock screen" and i've tried to restore settings. I went to the apple store and they said I had to send it to my provider (in another country) but my phone contract has run out.
    Is there a way to fix this?
    If not, is there some way apple can replace the phone? It's less than 2 years old. Surely the screen shouldn't just give out like that.
    Thank you

    My daughter forget her password and now her ipod touch is disabled.  Red message says to connect to itunes.  When I do connect to itunes, the device is not recognized and then a message comes on the screen that says it is locked and to enter the password to access it.  I cannot access the password and since itunes does not recognize the device, it does not come up on the list on the left, i cannot reset it.  What do I need to do so she can use her ipod touch again?   Thanks

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
