Little brother broke his iPod screen?

My little bro cracked his iPod Touch 4G screen when he dropped it on the driveway. It's still under warranty though I understand they will not cover this under manufacturers warranty. Does anyone know if we can get a free repair exception from an Apple rep? What is the best way to go about doing that? Or a cheaper repair than normal? Any help is appreciated. He bought the iPod with his own cash and is pretty bummed out
Thanks

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished for this price:
Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
However, sometimes if you make an appointment at the genius Bar of an Apple store they will exchange it at no cost.
A third-party place like the following may be less expensive. Google for more places.

    hi   Liz
    thanks for responding
    so there is no way, two ids can be on one devise.
    I have apps that my brother put on and apps that i put on
    When the apps need updating, the ones he installed need his id and, vice versa
    what I've done so far is, i delete the app and reinstall with my id
    I've never wanted to put the pod back to 'new' because there is to much music that i like on it
    ken
    the place that i went to change "id " was on the iCloud setting , was this the right place?

    You would need to put it in recover mode:

  • My little brother stole my iPod touch and when I got it back I tried to turn it on and it goes to the apple logo, which its usual, then it gets stuck on a Playboy bunny logo and won't go away.

  • My brother lost his ipod touch at school

    As indicated by the title, my brother has lost his ipod touch at his school. Is there any way to locate it remotely?

    If the FindMyiPod feature was already turned on and wifi an and connected go to iCloud, sign in and go to FIndmyiPhone.
    Otherwise you will have to find it the old fashioned way.
    Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to school and police.

  • How do i stop receiving iMessages on my macbook pro. Me and my husband and his little brother share his iTunes account and I would like to stop receiving a teenagers text on my computer.

    I just bought a brand new macbook pro and I keep getting my little brother in laws texts messages showing up on my computer. as well as mine and my husbands. we all share an account. and all have apple devices.

    Best is to setup Family Sharing and create a new ID for him.

    If Apple determines that an iPod is not repairable, for example, if it has failed due catastrophic damage or the iPod has been disassembled into multiple pieces, then Out-of-Warranty Service is not available and the iPod will be returned. Please see Apple's Repair Terms And Conditions for further details.
    You are not the first to report that, as expected, microwaving an iPod damages it.

  • Does some of you see little squares on his ipad3 screen, when bright light shines directly on the display?! Is this normal?

    Hey folks,
    I just got my iPad 3, and when the display is almost white like on the google homepage i noticed there were small squares or a grid visible all over the screen (when a light is shinning directly on the screen). I just want to know if it is just on my device or some of you also have experienced the same. If you cannot see the grid just tilt the ipad a bit when you are on a white background (as it is most visible on a white background). In addition I recognized that my ipad has a much "warmer" colour setting than my colleague's one. His one is "whiter" or "colder".
    For any ideas, experiences, suggestion: thanks in advances!

    Look like the plastic molding process is not perfect in your top shell surface, or some component might attach to that area that make the layer that block the light from lcd is not covering those area.
    I don't have my MacBook with me so I cannot give you any idea or comparison, hope somebody will post either they have same issue or they inform you that they dont have any of that.
    Just discuss this with you apple store or apple dealer if you feel this is annoyed, bring your picture along with your MacBook and even better print this thread so they now you are serious and not faking it.
    Actually it is kinda cool when you drew up small layout of the spot, it makes your MacBook one of a kind. If you post this thread on 6/6/06, it might give me goose bump, just kidding.

  • My brother lock his ipod can you please help me to unlockit please thank you

    hi can you please help me to unlock my brother ipodtouch thank yoiu

    Steps you know to do:
    *Put the iPod touch 5/4 into Recovery Mode or DFU Mode for 10 seconds by holding Power and Home button.
    *If you want to perform Recovery Mode, keep holding Power and Home Button for 30 seconds and let it go.
    *If you want to perform DFU Mode, let it go from power button and keep holding home button until iTunes logo appears.
    *When you're inside Recovery or DFU Mode, click OK.
    *To erase and unlock by removing the passcode, you need to restore. Click Restore iPod to continue.
    *Click Restore and let iTunes verify the restore to stock version.
    *Once is completed, done and ready to go.
    If the problem still continues, go to the Premium or Authorized Apple Reseller to make an service for iPod touch or make an appointment for Genius Bar about iPod hardware and repairs.
    Does it works? Let's hope it works! Good luck!

    No.  The warranty does not cover accidental damage.

  • 5th Gen 30 GB iPod - screen has lines - menu not visible

    Sometimes the menu is visible - sometimes not.  I have never dropped it, the glass is intact.  Just by clicking buttons I can play some music - just don't know what is going to play.  I have had it for many years, and though I have an iPhone and iPad - I still love my iPod for walking, etc.  Any suggestions that might help? (besides a new one).  Can the inner screen be replaced?  I have just reset & restored it to see if that might help - through iTunes. 

    You can work through the remaining five 5 R's of troubleshooting.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
    Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's LCD display, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
    Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity.  A third party service will actually replace the damaged/faulty part for a little less.  Google "iPod screen repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.
