Question About Buying a Charger at the Apple Store

My Powerbook's charger is broken (the piece that goes into the port snapped off) and I was wondering if it is possible to purchase a new charger at the Apple Store. I know I can just order one online, but if I buy one at the store, I won't have to wait for them to deliver it. I am currently borrowing my sister's charger, but she needs to use it as well, so I want to have a new one for myself as soon as possible. I also need to know if the Apple Store accepts cash, as I do not have a credit card (my dad has one, but I don't know how soon he would be able to go to the Apple Store as it is a few hours away from our home).
Thank you.

Alex, it will be worth your effort to locate the phone number of your local Apple store and make sure they have the charger in stock before you make the trip.
2nd Everywhere takes cash
Cheers Don,
Oh one last thing If you would have ordered it online you would have had it the next day. 2 different times I have ordered online, a charger like your after and an Airport Extreme Base Station and both arrived the next day FED EX.

    Go to appleid.apple.com. From there, go to Manage Apple ID. Log in and go to Password and Security. When you get to the page about answering your security questions, click on the link for Forgot My Answers. That will send an email to the rescue email address on how to reset.

    Is this a pre-paid card thing? Or different billing address than your iTS account?

    Hi, I just wanted to buy two iphones from the apple store usa with a lebanese credit card. Is it possible?

    The US Apple Store accepts US-issued credit cards only. And they will ship only to a US address. Whether or not a physical Apple Store would accept a Lebanese credit card I don't know.

  • Is there any obvious benefit to buying my imac from the apple store vs. Best Buy?  Saves $40 so I am contemplating not haggling with crowds at Apple Store.  Any thoughts?

    Return policy may be different from Apple's vs Best Buy. Regardless of crowds, only buy from Apple. Dealing with Best Buy in the future, if there's a problem it may not be worth what you believe to be a $40 savings.
    You can make an appointment in advance at the Genius Bar.

    If the computer shipped with Snow Leopard then you would have received an install DVD for iLife with the computer.

  • When I go to buy my Mac at the Apple Store, can they program Adobe Photoshop CS6 on it while I am there?

    When I go to buy my Mac at the Apple Store, can they program Adobe Photoshop CS6 on it while I am there?

    The online Apple store may offer to pre-load a version of CS6 for you, for the cost of the software package plus a few days set-up delay in shipping your Mac to you.
    The bricks and mortar stores do not sell software. It gets stale too fast.

  • Few questions about buying an iPhone in the US for European use

    We're currently in NY and are considering buying an iPhone because it's way cheaper here than in Belgium.
    Still we have a few questions, hope we can get some answers
    - You should unlock your iPhone, should we ask for that right away in the Apple store ?
    - Doest unlocking cost any money, if yes, how much ?
    - What happens to your warranty, can you go to a Belgian Apple store if something happens to your iPhone ?
    - Can customs make any problems if you get one or more iPhones unboxed in your baggage ?
    Anyone who has done this and wants to share their experience, any other things we have to know ?
    Thanks in advance!

    Warranty will be valid only in the US. You will have to return the iPhone
    personally or via friend/relative. Apple will not accept international
    shipments for evaluation nor will Apple ship out of the country after
    repair/replacement. You cannot have your US purchased iPhone serviced
    or replaced in the US.
    LTE/4G on an iPhone purchased in the US will not work outside of North America.
    Tax, import duty, customs fees are best discussed with the appropriate governmental
    entities in Belgium.
    Be sure to ask in the Apple store for an unlocked iPhone - you will pay full retail price
    plus applicable taxes. There is no charge to get the iPhone unlocked.

  • Can I still buy a Ipad2 in the apple store or only online

    Within 3 weeks I'm leaving for a holiday to the USA and want to buy there a Ipad2.
    Can I still buy one in the Apple Stores or do I need to order a Ipad2 online and then pick it up in the store near where I stay?
    Because if You look online at the store they still selling/can order the Ipad2.

    Hi,
    It sounds as if you'll be on a great trip! The west coast is beautiful!
    First, to answer your important question, I called the Apple store in Seattle. The woman said, "Of course you can use a credit card from the Netherlands (and I'm pretty sure from any country) in any Apple store."
    And you do not need a US address. That's only for buying and/or repairing via US mail. Because of each country's sanctions, Apple cannot ship internationally. That's why for on-line buys, you must use a US credit card and prove it's going to a US address.
    Also, before traveling, you might look into your credit card company's policy on exchange rate. For example, if you buy an ipad on a given day at a given rate, your credit card might not charge you the rate at which you bought it. They might charge you the rate that it is on the day you are billed (billing date - that once a month date.) You might want to read up on it if you're not aware and get correct info directly from your card company. Or check out new ones, if necessary. I'm sure you know the euro to US dollar rate is in your favor. But be careful where you exchange money - no airports or hotels. 
    And it seems as if you've settled on an ipad 2 16 gb, your original plan. Great. When you said different sizes did you mean different space like 32 gb and 64 gb? If so, it's great that you'll have a choice.
    The woman I spoke with said there was only one Apple store in Seattle and it is not in the center of the city (it's near the Univ. of Washington,)  but you'll have a car, though, so it shouldn't be a problem. She did suggest, though that you might want to wait until you get to Portland because the tax in Seattle WA is 9.5% but there is no sales tax in Portland OR. That means with tax, in Seattle you'll pay $436.91 but in Portland you'll pay only $399.00 and save $37.91. That might or might not matter to you. 
    This is a little off topic, but if you are into photography and are using a camera (actually also any smart phone though you'll never get the quality a point and shoot or a dslr will give you) then you might want to consider buying a camera connection kit at the Apple store for $29.00. Whatever you take pictures with you can then put on your ipad. You'll see them better and can email them home/facebook if you like. If you do that, please read up before you go on how the camera connection kit works, and how you have to name pictures to go onto the ipad camera roll, etc. As a matter of fact, if you're near an Apple store at home, you might want to go in and ask for help. Of course, in Seattle, they can help you set up your ipad and explain anything you need to know.
    Great that you have your Apple ID. You'll also need your password...
    Have a wonderful trip! The scenery is beautiful and you're traveling to some beautiful and fun places. It sounds as if you are well traveled internationally and know much of the info I added, but just in case...
    If you have any questions about Apple in the US, you can let me know and I'll be happy to speak directly with an Apple store rep in Seattle and then get back to you.
    Hope this helps.

    You replaced the battery yourself or Apple did it?
    If you did it, you messed something up.
    If Apple did it, take it back.

  • Question about getting 4S camera fixed at Apple Store.

    Hi everybody,
        My wife got an iPhone 4S from Walmart in May of 2012.  It had been working great, then 3 weeks ago at the St. Louis zoo her camera shutter wouldn't open.  The camera app would open but the shutter would just stay closed.  I tried the "hold your finger over the camera" trick, and it worked!  For about 5 minutes...then it stopped.  Then I read about the "hold sleep and home till it turns off and then hold home"...again it worked! For about 5 minutes then stopped.  Updating to ios 6 let the camera work for about a day, then it stopped again.  Sooooo...
       We live about 2 hours from St. Louis and Louisville (nearest Apple Stores).  We are thinking about making a day trip to Louisville to get her phone fixed but I had a couple of questions.
    1) Will they repair/repalce iPhone without a receipt from Walmart, but have the original box?  Also, I could pull up ATT statements if needed.
    2) What happens if we get there and the camera happens to work?  (It will work OCCASIONALLY) Did we just waste a trip or will they believe that there was an issue?
    3) If they will agree to fix/repace, what will they do?  Just give her a refurbished iPhone 4S or try to fix it there?  I don't care which, but if they have to send it off then we can just do it from our house.  But my wife doesn't want to start with that option because she doesn't want to be without her phone and doesn't trust the "process". lol....
    4) oh one more....do I need to call the store or setup something with Apple before I get there? Or can we just bust right up in the store?
    Any thoughts/suggestions/experience/strength/hope ?
    Thanks and God Bless!!

    Thank you!!  Dang...yeah, I will call and see what they say.  I understand about the thefts and such.  I hate that we lost the receipt.  Hopefully there is a way we can track proof of purchase.  I was going to say that if we did it next weekend then it would still be less than a year old, but you threw the curveball at me about the stolen iphones.  Check out the guy that just posted that he "wants to buy a stolen iphone"...dumbest post I've ever seen...
    Anyway, thank you and have a blessed day!
    haha, just caught the "Murphy" comment!  Never really thought too much about Murphys law until I started listening to Dave Ramsey, but now I know that Murphy and I have been tight before!! ....defending against Murphy showing up would be calling ahead like you said and being prepared!  Not just hauling tail over to Louisville and scream when they say "NO"....haha
