Philly_Phan,I am curious whay you said "If there is no sign of abuse,", a broken screen is almost always caused by abuse/accidental damage, and that is what the out-of-warranty exchange is for.
A broken screen is an accident but it is not abuse.  However, if the owner attempts a repair him/herself, that's abuse.  Although unrelated to the damage, if the device has been jailbroken, that's also abuse.

    Will Apple replace IPad charger for me? Still under warranty.

    If it's not working as a result of a built-in fault, yes. If there's damage that you've caused, probably not.

  • My ipod nano 6th gen fell out of my pockey and the screen cracked badly, is there any coverage for this under warranty? I just bought it a month ago. If not what are the options for getting it fixed

    My ipod nano 6th gen fell out of my pocket and the screen cracked badly, is there any coverage for this under warranty? I just bought it a month ago. If not what are the options for getting it fixed? It is pretty frustrating, it fell from about 3 feet out of my pocket and now looks like it was beaten by a hammer.

    he advises restarting by inserting the OSX disc and pressing down the C button to reboot from there then selecting disk utility, hard disk and repair.... Does he mean me to hold down the C key on the alpha keyboard or the ctrl key?
    Should I just ask for my money back??? If it is a simple repair do I just literally push the disc in, push the power button and hold down the C button?
    That's where I would begin, too, with
    Repair Disk
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.TStatus of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it saysanything but Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need touse autility like TechTool Pro,Drive Geniusor DiskWarrior
    First we need to determine if the issue you are experiencing with the computer is software or hardware based. Once we have gotten things sorted out there should be time enough to make you decision about keeping or returning it.

    Can I return my Ipod touch 4th generation and get an Ipad 2, if my ipod is still under warranty?

    The warranty doesn't cover that. Sell it and put the money towards a new device.

  • How do I get Apple to replace my phone while still under warranty?

    The sleep/wake button on my Iphone 3G has dropped significantly lower from its original position, so much so that it is hard to push to wake the screen. I've had this issue with the original phone and once before with the 3G and an exchange to get a new phone with apple has never been an issue because this is a known problem with the phone. I took the phone in for an exchange but due to a quarter inch crack in the plastic near the dock connector they refuse to do an exchange or even fix the sleep/wake button. The employee said, "you could get an aftermarket company to put on a new plastic back then take it back in and then we would probably exchange it." Does anybody know of any other solution or similar problems that they've had that can help me? Thanks in advance

    wow your issue about sleep/wake button dropped lower from its original position I have never heard of let alone it be a known issue. While I have heard of lots of people with cracks on their casing I for one have had two phones with cracks first one was a small crack by the Dock Connector and apple replaced it no problem second time crack was by the SIM Card Tray again apple replaced it no problem...
    If you took it to another company to do any work then apple would not exchange it as you would have just VOIDED the Warranty...

  • Will apple replace ur phone if its under warranty

    Will apple replace ur iPhone 4 for free if its still under warranty

    Yes, as long as you have not dropped it in water or damaged it yourself, it has been known for genius to help if you are honest and have caused damage but dont bet on it. If its a phone fault which cant be fixed, then yes they will after checking the phone out for water ingress etc. If you have Applecare+ you get one free exchange for accidental damage in the US I think.

  • My screen cracked, will Apple replace it after 1 yr?

    It cracked by touching the screen to close it shut.  It wasn't dropped or handled roughly.  Its been 1.5 yrs since purchase.

    The Apple warranty only covers manufacturing-related defects.  Closing the lid with sufficient force to crack the screen would constitute "rough" handling.

    if your screen cracks, can you get a replacement screen installed on the same phone?

    With iPhone 4 Apple will not replace the screen. They will replace the entire iPhone 4. If you want the screen replaced on the same iPhone 4, you have to do it yourself.

    Apple will replace an iPod that is still under warranty if it has a manufacturing defect. That's not the same thing.
