My ipad1 had a gray are across the middle of the screen. How do I get an estimate of how much it will cost to repair it. If I can't where can I send this so it will be recycled responsibly?

I have an iPad 1. I have a gray bar across the middle of the iPad. I have heard this  is a common problem among the first generation iPads. How to I get an estimate on how much it will cost to get fixed, and if that is not possible, where to send this (and my broken iPods) so they can be recycled responsibly?

If you head over to ifixit.com, you can check out their replacement guides for each of the items you feel needs replacing. The cost for the parts is listed there. It would be that cost + labor at an Apple store. I'm not sure if they would replace things that are cracked as that is cosmetic damage and doesn't affect how well (or poorly) the computer works. You would have to bring it to a store and ask.

  • My iPod touch is a model MB528LL running version 4.2.1.  I would like to download the At Bat 12 App (the $14.99 version) so I can listen to professional baseball games this year.  Will there be an app. available for my iPod?

    My iPod touch is a model MB528LL and runs version 4.2.1.  I would like to download the At Bat 12 app. (the $14.99 version) so I can listen to professional baseball games this year.  Will there be an app. available for my iPod this year?

    I went to the link you posted and followed all the steps.  I was thrilled to see that it worked!  I don't recall whether my PC still recognized my iPod Touch as a camera or not, but DEVICES did show up in iTunes and it recognized the name of my iPod Touch.
    Now, though, everything is back the way it was.  The PC tells me I have a camera connected via USB and iTunes doesn't even have DEVICES listed in the left-hand column.
    I'm wondering if this is the problem:  I had the iPod on until the battery was so "low" that it stopped.  I didn't press and hold the button on top.  In fact, until I read the article you linked to, I didn't even know you could turn the iPod on and off that way.  I would only press it once until the screen turned blank and simply pressed the Home buttom to turn it back on.  Until I read that article, I thought the Home button was the On button.
    So now my question is this:  Should I ALWAYS turn the iPod off by pressing and holding the button on top until I see the red slider on the screen?
    Thanks!

  • Is anyone else having any problems with their music in your library, in the middle of all my songs I'm getting a skipping noise. Never had this problem before. Can someone help?

    I have Windows Vista and last week I upgraded my iTunes, i think it's up to 11. something or other and now all my music in my iTunes library has this scratch-type noise in the middle of the song. I've never had this issue before, all my songs played wonderfully and now every song has this scratching-type noise in the middle of it. Can someone help me?

    OK, after looking into the settings on "my account" on the Verizon website, it appears that "caller ID" was removed from my "features" on my line. The only reason I actually noticed this is because I have the same phone as someone else on our account, so I looked at their features and noticed mine was missing. Any idea how to get it back on there? I can't seem to figure it out.

  • HT4623 (the screen is OK) right in the middle of the volume tap so now I can't use the volume tap on the side. Is this fixable, if so will it be costly?

    I dropped my ipad
    it dented the side of the case (the screen is OK)
    it dented right in the middle of the volume tap
    now volume tap doesn't work.
    Help...

    If it has just stopped working and you have had it for less than a year, Apple will replace the iPad for free (make sure to back it up to iTunes first). If not, you will either have to pay for a new one, or get it fixed.

  • Help!! Can't get past this folder icon in the middle of my screen

    I received an external CD driver in the mail and wanted to make sure it would plug in to my laptop, so, with the computer off and unplugged, I plugged in the USB and then unplugged it. Then, I plugged my iBook in, and powered it on.
    Right after I booted my computer up, the screen came on and a little folder appeared right in the middle of the screen. The folder is small, and is alternately flashing a question mark ? and the mac logo of the little square face. The mouse wont work, pressing enter doesn't do anything.
    I just got this laptop from a friend, I used the computer at a cafe with no problems, went online, downloaded open office. That was 3 days ago, and since then hasn't been touched... Until today. Now it's doing this.
    School starts Monday and this has to be fixed!! I know nothing about Macs, someone help?

    None of the white iBook G3 series would be running OS 8.6 or earlier;
    the first one (dual USB, 500MHz 12" LCD, etc) shipped with OS 9.1
    in May 2001 and it could also run OS X.
    The older iBook G3 in colors other than white, (blueberry, tangerine,
    indigo, lime, graphite) were in two series, the earlier one of those
    shipped with OS 8.6; in July 1999. The second of the series, had Fire-
    Wire ports and a faster CPU. It shipped with OS 9.0.4. With adequate
    hardware upgrade to support OS X, the oldest colors iBook G3s can
    run, respective of age, oldest model: OS X 10.3.9 or maybe 10.4.
    For some better ideas on what may actually help the computer you
    have, information on what it is would be of great consequence. If
    you have a correct bootable installer system CD (or DVD if a later
    iBook with combo or superdrive installed) then you may be able to
    start the computer from the Mac OS install disc and run Disk Utility
    or the equivalent, to try and repair the disk, then choose a startup
    volume on the computer's hard disk drive, and restart the iBook.
    Since you indicate you had tried to install a freeware Office-like app
    into the computer, it would not be running a pre-OS X system.
    There may be some minor damages or corruption to the data files
    on the computer's hard disk drive, so a disk utility that could try
    and fix them may be a solution; so hopefully you have a correct
    version Mac OS system install disc and can see if inserting that
    into the iBook's optical drive and try restarting while holding the
    C key down, this may let you boot from the Installer; in the menu
    header of the OS (X is presumed) when you see a Finder-like
    menu bar, there are choices and options in drop-down menus;
    one of them is to run Disk Utility.
    However, not knowing what the computer model really is or
    the OS version running; or if you have any correct discs for it
    to try & fix this problem, about the best you may be able to do
    is use some keyboard commands and try to get the computer
    to look for any available startup system.
    • Magical Macintosh Key Sequences:
    http://davespicks.com/writing/programming/mackeys.html
    If the computer does have a bootable OS 8.6/9.2 system
    and also an OS X, you may be able to find & boot from one.

    Without more information, there is no really simple answer;
    as most tools you may need to get past the problem would
    have to be present for you to continue. What kinds of OS
    discs and software did you get with the computer? What
    model is it? (What does it look like and what part number or
    model number appears on the side of the iBook's case?)

  • I was in the middle of the latest update and my iPhone now says it needs to restored will I be able to back it up first. I have photos on it I can NOT loses

    I was in the middle of the latest update and my iPhone now says it needs to restored will I be able to back it up first. I have photos on it I can NOT lose

    It should have backed up automatically at the start of the update process. And you should be saving photos from your phone to your computer regularly, just like you would with any digital camera. If you were not doing this you MAY lose the photos, but if your backup at the start of the update was successful you will not. Just DO NOT sync after the update, until you have restore the backup and verified that it is OK.
    What error message did you get during the update? Before you restore do the following:
    Reboot your computer
    Connect to a USB port on the computer directly, not a hub
    disable your antivirus and firewall
    Launch iTunes
    Finally, connect the phone and restore.

  • Does anyone know how I can retrieve this.  Somehow my cat moved ITunes to the middle of the desktop and I now get this message and cannot open it. You can't open the application iPhoto because it may be damaged or incomplete.

    Does anyone know how I can solve this.  My cat managed to move iphoto tab to the middle of the screen and now I cannot open it and get this message.
    You cannot open the application iphoto because it may be damaged or incomplete
    Any help appreciated

    You need a more technically saavy cat, for a start.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

    my Mac book will power up but the apple sign remains in the middle of the screen and a gear turning below it -nothing else happens -can you help?

    A couple of things to try:
    PRAM reset by holding down cmd-opt-p-r on restart. Hold down the keys until you hear the second startup tone.
    If you have a wireless keyboard, wait until you hear the startup tone, then press the keys.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    Boot into Safe Mode by holding down Shift key on restart. Same timing applies to wireless keyboard.
    Safe Mode takes a while to boot. It will show a progress bar. It will boot to the login screen. Log in, then restart normally.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1455
    Boot into Recovery HD by holding down cmd-r. Same note for wireless keyboard.  Once booted, run Disk Utility and repair Macintosh HD (or whatever you have renamed it).

    I use Adobe Premiere Elements 11. I want to make a Credit Roll and start off screen and stop with the credit remaining still in the middle of the screen. I know this can be done with CS6. Can this be done in Elements 11? Does Elements 12 or 13 have these options for Credit Roll.
