Neoprene Case Falling Apart

I bought a playbook on preorder from Best Buy, so I received it probably on April 21.  The case that came with the device started falling apart the very next day – the seam around the top loosened, so the edge is falling apart.
I was just down at BlackBerry World and spoke with the girls at the retail store out in the foyer, and also talked to the folks at Best Buy, and they both told me to email RIM directly.  When I did, I got an autoreply saying that basically, I needed to talk to someone else.
Any advice?

What email address did they tell you to send to?
Just a reminder, if you don't know, BlackBerry itself does not do customer support or warranty returns via email.
Here is the link to the warranty and customer support page for the Playbook.

  • Replacement iPod Touch 8GB (2nd Gen) beggining to fall apart after two months!

    Well my problem is plain and simple
    My first iPod touch (8GB 2nd Gen) was working perfectly fine until one day it slipped from my hands and the screen shattered. I took the iPod in to Best Buy and they overlooked the serial number and looked up my plan (product replacement plan) and they took it in and sent it out. They promised me a refurbished or a new iPod touch. They said it should take only about 5 days but it took two weeks, but in all fairness it was around a busy holiday seasons so i can understand the holdup. My Apple warranty was already up when i took the first iPod in for a replacement so i just used my product replacement plan. 2 weeks later i recieved my refurbished iPod in the mail, how could i tell it was refurbished, well for one the back of the iPod was void of any scratches but there was no Apple or "iPod" branding?! They also did not include the headphones used with current and past models, they shipped headphones that were changed years ago to a new design, i tested the headphones, and they were broken. I just said oh well and when i went to plug it in with the "new" cord they included i noticed there were stains all over it and i had to disinfect them (..yuck!) it made me certainly rethink even using the headphones in the first place. One thing that seemed odd to me was that it included OS 3.0 since 2nd gen iPods only ship with OS 2.2.1 and after checking the settings i confirmed it was in fact a sencond generation iPod Touch. After about a week of use i plugged in my headphones and i could only hear through one side, i unplugged them and replugged them and the problem was resolved and i thought it was a fluke, so i just disregarded it but its been a month now and since last week no matter what headphones i use i always get sound from the left channel. I was honestly furious that after only 1 month the ipod it starting to fall apart in front of me. I inspected the iPod closely and noticed that if held a certain way the glass on the lower right coner of the iPod begins to move around. The home button has also failed to respond quite a few times. Then when one day the external speaker started to begin to become flaky and sometimes not work at all, i just said "thats it!" im currently resetting the iPod to factory settings and putting a test sound on it for them to listen to and see the problem. In fact when i received it there was already a test sound on it so i presume there was a problem with the jack previously? I am repackiging everything and am off to geek squad tommorow, if there is any other advice to offer please let me know. Ive treated the iPod like a child after the first one shattered and the device has never been dropped, the screen and the back cover are spotless (minus the small scratches on the back chrome cover just from normal use) the iPod has never been near water and i checked the iPod to see if infact water could have gotten in the iPod and the sticker was still sparkling white, i am sorry Best Buy ive been a customer for years and while do not mean to rant and complain it has only been to months and its already falling apart?! i am sorry that is just not acceptable.

    I just got my ipod touch 2nd gen 8gb replacement ipod in the mail two days ago. And i fell that my screen has cracked way to easily. I had my other ipod touch before this one for a year and a half and the screen had never been cracked. But my first two days with this "replacement" ipod has cracked twice. i am willing to take the blame for the first crack as i dropped it in the street and my case didnt do its job, but lasnight i put my hand in my sweatpants pocked only to find small peices of glass. i took out my ipod and there was the problem. a large shatter on the bottom near the homebutton. Seriously 2 cracks in 2 days with my REPLACEMENT after 360+ days and no cracks with my forsure APPLE ipod touch? I doubt my ipod touch screen is even made by apple.

  • FALLING APART!

    My computer is falling apart! on the right hand side by the track pad, a thin portion of the plastic is peeling back! I have friends with the same model, having the same issues! What is going on? Is this covered? I didn't buy the extra warantee.

    Hi,
    Just adding my two bits...same thing with my Macbook. Cracks on both sides where your palm rests. It appears to match exactly where the magnet-ridges come down.
    I've seen lots of identical issues in other Mac forums. Right now I've got scotch tape preventing further damage...kind of "cheap" looking.
    Hoping Apple repairs this without hassle...my MacBook is kept in it's own sleeve insde my case and has never been dropped.
    Fingers crossed.

  • Hinge Falling Apart

    Yesterday my hinge started falling apart. This machine has never been dropped or over-extended before. I was told by the Apple Store today it must have been dropped and would not be covered under warranty. However (like many others I've seen claim the same thing, on the internet at least) my machine has never been dropped or mishandled, it sits on my desk. The majority of people also claim this problem has happened on the right side of their machine, as it has on mine, which leads me to believe this is a manufacturing issue.
    I was asked to call Apple Care, buy when I did they said in essence "whatever the Apple Store said is what you will hear from us".
    So I was told to call Customer Relations tomorrow. I just thought I should log my situation in here in case it can aid in bringing attention to this problem.
    Some pics of my machine

  • Everything is falling apart while in Africa....awesome

    So I have had my MacBook since summer of 2006 and up until this August, I have had no problems. Now everything is hitting the fan. In the past two weeks the disc drive stopped reading discs. It will load them into the drive just fine, and there aren't any weird sounds, it just won't read them. Then, a chunk of plastic came off of the palm rest where the ridge on the screen meets the palm rest. It matches up perfectly with the length and depth of this ridge. Is anyone else having this problem? Oh yeah, and when I try to repair my hard drive from Disk Utility, it says there is an "underlying task error" and won't repair it. The only way to fix this problem is to start up from the disk. However, like stated above, the disc drive won't read the start up disk to fix the hard drive. And to top it all off, I am spending the semester in Zambia, where there are no Apple stores. Is there anyone that has any ideas that might possibly help my situation?! I will be sending my laptop in as soon as I set foot on American soil to take full advantage of the AppleCare Protection Plan. Thanks Apple, I love how your stuff seems to fall apart after a year!!!

    Do you have AppleCare? Even if there are no Apple Stores (there are none in Slovakia, either) there might be an authorized repair center. You can look it up on the Apple website. As far as the case, it's a known problem, and if you still have AppleCare, you can have it fixed for free.

  • Macbook Chasis Falling Apart!

    My Macbook BLACK chasis is falling apart. The edges start breaking apart. Does this happen to all of you?

    Hi markis_83
    Welcome to Apple discussions
    Unfortunately, some macbooks have been affected by these issues, but provided it's still in warranty Apple will fix it free of charge. In my own case, the lower case of my MB started cracking and it was replaced free of charge.
    Contact Apple Care today and get your MB fixed.

  • My Original MacBook is falling apart

    My Original macbook is fall apart the (Top Case the part with the keyboard) that part is falling apart,
    1. Stains on the top case
    2. Crack near the button on the trackpad
    3. and now the Left arrow key is about ready to fall off.
    So I going to take it to one of the Apple Stores- and if they do not fix for free of charge then I think about getting the new MacBook that they just annouced today.
    Who thinks that is a good idea?

    I took my Original Macbook to a Apple store and I just mention the crack and the loose key. And they said that they would replace the top case for no charge. I went to the Fair Oaks mall (Apple Store that just opened up in April of this year) and they said that the cracks are covered if out of warrenty. And I ask how often do they see cracks in the top case and they say it is normal. So I have brand new on Top Case and it only took them 10 minutes to put the new top case on and it is defentially stronger plastic so it might last a little big longer now. So they did not keep my Macbook for couple days just went and told them about it and then 10 minutes later I had a new top case.

  • Hp envy m6-1125dx hinges falling apart

    I bought this m6-1125dx about two years ago and the hinges started falling apart a few weeks ago. First the right hinge and now the left hinge. It broke the plastic around the screen and now it's just being held by those wires. I was okay with it but it seems like the added stress has broken half the screen of the laptop. I take extremely good care of my stuff and it's unacceptable that a laptop would just start falling apart after two years. Apparently this is a very common problem and HP hasn't even done a recall.
    HP can you fix this?

  • Neoprene case for Macbook?

    Hi
    Does anyone know if there are any decent Neoprene cases for the MacBook (uk). I like the look of the Incase ones for the MacBook Pro, but can't seem to find any for the MacBook.
    Cheers
    KM

    Yeah, you shouldn't really use it in the case like that, even though it does show that you can do that on their website.
    Anyway, this is another recommendation for the Bitolithic sleeve. Mine took less than a week to ship from Australia to the UK, and I'm very happy with it. The zip goes all the way around so you can remove the MacBook from the side or front, the blue is a nice complement to the white MacBook, and it feels well made. Great for protection from minor scratches if you are carrying your MacBook in a bag.
    I posted some impressions when I first got it here:

  • Highly Dissapointed G570 falling apart within 3 months and now cracking close to end of Warranty

    I purchased a Lenovo G570 and noticed within 3 months the screws at the bottom were dropping out unknown to me. Next the rear edges cracked open everytime I opened up the Laptop TO USE IT and made a cracking sound , same noise when you close it.
    I am highly disappointed in this Laptop. I was considering getting a Lenovo Tablet but after this nightmare , I will keep as far away from Lenovo as I can.
    Also I bought the Laptop at the end of August and was shocked to discover that my Warranty expired a couple of weeks before it should have so to replace the Screws I was told to ship it to the factory for repair would cost over $250 !
    I see some Screw Kits available for much less than this.
    I am now just waiting for the Whole Laptop to fall apart but will not be repairing it , I will just throw it in the Garbage Dump and consider it a waste of money.
    I will go for a Toshiba or Apple next time.
    Never Ever Again ....NOT A CHANCE WILL I EVER PURCHASE LENOVO !  SHAME ON THEM !

    It will keep falling apart. Don't buy anymore Lenovo products. They will just beak into pieces. They are shameless and disgusting. My laptop just keeps falling apart.

  • AI graphic falls apart in Premiere Pro CS6

    Hey guys,
    I've brought a very simple vectored graphic (png from illustrator) into premiere CS6 to use as a logobug in the lower right corner.
    So here's what my timeline looks like. All white with logobug(intro), footage of speaker with logobug(middle), and then all white with logobug(end).
    Here's what's driving me crazy.
    When I render and export this really short sequence, the graphic(logobug) at the beginning falls apart. By this I mean that it looks pixelated and like a copy of a copy. Just looks crappy.
    But when the speaker footage starts, the graphic/logobug all of a sudden looks real sharp. And at the end when the speaker's footage is done and it's just the logobug over white, the logobug looks GREAT.
    I have no idea what's going on here? The logo bug looks horrible in the beginning and then great over the middle and at the end. I've tried exporting it as multiple file types. I've asked the graphic artist to redo the art and give me a different copy. But same results.
    timeline is 640by480, 60fps dslr footage with the png vectored logobug from the graphic artist, and he made it in illustrator
    Specs: 580gtx, 16g ram, 2 HDs, with CS6 Production Suite
    Thanks a bunch!

    For starters, PNG can't hold vector graphics, only rasterized.  Which means any scaling you do could degrade the image.
    Having said that, can you upload the export so we can see what you see?
