Mystery of cracked screen - user damage!

Has anyone else discovered their macbook pro screen cracked for no apparent reason? I have mine less then 2 months, treat it with respect, have never dropped/bumped, applied pressure or slammed the lid. I bought it in Dubai through an authorised apple dealer who have deemed the damage to be user damage so no cover. I paid £2,500 new only to now have to pay £500 for repair. I am utterly dismayed at this outcome...surely this has to be a manufacture default. I cant even see the crack and thought it was a hardware problem but I stand corrected.

- Apple will exchange it for a refurbished one it for this price:
Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
- You can Google and find a thrid-party place in the UK
- You can fix it yourself. Here are instructions. Google for the parts.
iPod Touch Repair - iFixit
I doubt the slowness is due to the pdrop. I suspect a restore will cure that.

HT4061 I had read that Apple will replace a cracked screen on an iPad the first time for free. Does anyone know if this is true?

apple's official policy is: cracked screens = accidental damage
With iPad 1 and 2, accidental damage is not covered by any apple care and a replacement iPad starts at $249 and goes up depending on the model.
iPad3's were eligible for Apple Care + which offers two instances of accidental damage repair for $49 each time
The 'apple store replaced my cracked ipad for free' is largely an urban legend. It's possibly happened, but those that have been on the receiving end were people that happened to get a store manager that defied Apple's official policy. Not to say it hasn't potentially happened, but it's an exception not the rule. And if you happen to be lucky enough to experience it, that's just what it is, luck. Not something to be counted on or expected.

The warranty does not cover accedental damage like a broken screen. However, some time the Genius at the Genius Bar of an Apple store will replace the iPod at not cost. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar and ask. If not under warranty, Apple will exchange yours for:

My iphone 6 is cracked and its screen is damaged how i could able to claim its warranty as no outlet is available in Pakistan,

my iphone 6 is cracked and its screen is damaged so how i could able to claim its warranty as no apple store/outlet is available in Pakistan,I also informed the apple support team please guide

You cannot.
1). A cracked screen is not covered by the warranty.
2). The iPhone is not legitimately sold in Pakistan, and the warranty, if you were able to claim it, is not international. Chances are is that your iPhone is a gray market import.

Screen cracked and speaker damage

I had an accident, my iPad mini was dropped and the screen cracked also speaker damages
How can I fix it in malaysia

Apple does not repair iPads, but will replace the entire iPad for a flat fee. See the Service Pricing section here:
http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/service/faq/
There are independent iPad repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipad repair". You can also look for parts and instructions and do the repair yourself. Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPad serviced by an unauthorized shop or perform your own repair, you will get no further support from Apple.

Does Applecare cover damaged/cracked screens? Replacement options?

Is there a cost effective way to fix a cracked screen on iphone 4(16GB in contract ATT)?
Purchased June 2011 with additional Applecare(not Applecare +)
The options I've considered:
1. NEW
     buy new iphone 4 $549 8GB
     buy new iphone 4S $649 16GB
2. USED
     buy used iPhone 4 online
     *anywhere from $275-500 locally in Chicago
3. CLAIM
     Make claim under Home insurance(deductible applies $500)
4. Cancel contract woth current carrier and subsequently buy new iPhone4s with either VZ or Sprint
      *Early term applies plus cost of new phone(and loss of unlimited data)Estimate at $484
Thanks for any and all ideas--this would be the 2nd phone replaced this year!

How can I get apple to warranty my iPod touch 4th gen? It has always had issues and seems to be a lost cause. Will not connect to wi-fi. It also has cracked screen, but that is not the issue.

It has a cracked screen also but that is not the issue. I am willing to live with the screen

Unfortunately, ANY signs of 'neglect or damage' automatically become the cause of any issues you're having. As in it doesn't matter if your screen was flickering before it was dropped, when they see the dent or cracked screen, that screen flicker was caused by the drop. Because they have no way to know if you are telling the truth (it's nothing personal, they just literally dont' know) so any signs of damage become the reason for your issue. The only way out of that is if you had taken in your iPad and, even if you didn't get it replaced, an apple employee can have documented that yes, that issue existed before the drop.
It's not fun, I know, but that's just how it is. Any signs of 'neglect or damage' and that 'neglect or damage' is the cause of your issues.

How can i see my warranty if my ipod is cracked screen or open from falling

how can i see my warranty of my cscreen is cracked and it opens

A cracked screen is not coverd by warranty:
Apple's Limited Warranty for iPod excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, liquid damage, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications. Please review the warranty for further details. When a service is not covered under the warranty, Apple will return your original iPod to you without providing service, and may hold you responsible for shipping costs, plus any applicable sales tax.
An iPod that is ineligible for warranty service may be eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service. For example, an iPod that has failed due to damage or liquid damage is ineligible for warranty service but eligible for OOW service. However, certain damage is ineligible for OOW service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. Please see Apple's Repair Terms And Conditions for further details.

I just took my I-Pod touch to a computer repair shop to replace cracked screen and now am told main part of I-Pod needs to be replaced.volume button no longer works, headphone and locking device also no longer working. Even though it all worked when given

I just took my I-Pod touch to a computer repair shop to replace a cracked screen. Told it need the main part to it. They said the volume button, headphone and locking part no longer worked. Told me to pick it up. When I gave it to them all components were working. Said because they weren't able to fix it there was no charge. Don't understand this.

Probably when you dropped, kicked, smashed, threw, or whatever you did to break your screen it also damaged the logic board and the connections to the volume button, headphone jack and sleep button. Happens all the time. Apparently the shop you selected to work on it is not very good so take them off your shopping list.
Then go buy a 5th Generation iPod Touch.

Mac book air cracked screen. how much to repair and how long to fix it

is cracked screen on mac book air coverd under warrenty

Hello mehrnoosh,
A cracked/damaged screen is not covered by the one-year limited warranty (or) the AppleCare Protection Plan. It is considered accidental damage and thus not eligible for a free replacement/service under the terms of either. That being said, your renter's or home owner's insurance might be able to offer service/replacement coverage if personal electronic items are covered. In addition many major credit cards offer additional warranty/coverage options within the first X (it varies) of ownership. You would need to reach out to those specific coverage options yourself, however.

Cracked screen led to numerous other problems.

There is something wrong with my phone. In addition to the cracked screen, the mic & front camera are broken, I can't get cellular data, the screen has been moving by itself (sliding back in front b/t screens, opening apps, calling people). All this happened after I broke the screen. I have done no other damage that I know off.
Can my iPhone be fixed or naw? If so, what exactly do I need get done?

Breaking the screen can result in a wide variety of problems. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

No power after changing a cracked screen

I just replaced a cracked screen on my toshiba satellite laptop and after I put the battery back in a nd turned it on it started for a few seconds and then shut off and now nothing happens when I try to turn it on. Any ideas on what has possibly happened?

Open it back up and check all of your connections, then try powering it up again after it is reassembled. Make sure the battery and power cord are disconnected while you work on it.

HT4528 How much would a cracked screen for iphone 4S cost, if my phone is still under warranty?

How much would a cracked screen for iphone 4S cost, if my phone is still under warranty?

Razmee209 is correct, out of warranty repair/replacement cost for and iPhone 4s is $199, and the reason you would have to pay for that Kats524 is because accidental damage is not covered under your limited hardware warranty. Hope this helps, best of luck to you.
