Re: store would not take back by broken studio beats cause the serial number and box didnt match

I just came across the same issue! Tried to exchange a defective Studio model and the serial numbers did not match! How do know if Best Buy is not selling refurbished / fake headphones. I'm very disappointed with the service and quality of the headphones. I will be sure to let my friends and followers to avoid Best Buy / Beats. It's worth mentioning the fact that Steve - Assistant Manager seemed genuinely concern about that issue. Nice guy but he doesn't have the tools / authority to make a customer who spends thousands @ Best Buy whole. I don't mind taking my biz to Amazon

Hello Techblogger45,
I'm sorry to read your Beats headphones have developed a defect. While I'm happy to hear that Steve did his best on your behalf, I regret that he wasn't able to offer you the solution you were expecting.
I was unable to locate your purchase using the information you provided when you signed up for Best Buy Unboxed, so I have some questions for you: when did you purchase your Beats? Did you purchase Geek Squad Protection (GSP) for them or were you still within the return/exchange period when you visited your local store? If you did not purchase GSP, I recommend that you contact Apple Support directly for options under the manufacturer warranty. If you did purchase a GSP, please send me a private message with your name, telephone number, and your GSP plan ID number if you have it. I'll do my best to help.
I hope this helps clarify things, and please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any further questions or concerns. 
Regards,

  • Store would not take back by broken studio beats cause the serial number and box didnt match

    so i went to return my studio wireless beats today cause the right side volume was not working.  the waterword lakes store manager would not take them cause the box and headphones serial numbers did not match and accused me and having more than one pair.  These are the only beats i own and have ever owned  they were bought online from best buy and box was sealed by my wife.  so how would you ever know the serial numbers dont match?  Open it in front of a best buy manager before you leave??  said for me to call beats myself.  So $360 bucks down the drain? They were probably refurbed and boxed during black friday is my guess.  not good best buy

    Hello and welcome to the forum coljeski,
    As someone who loves her Beats, I'm sorry to hear yours are not working well. They definitely are not a small investment, and I would be very frustrated also if I was told they could not be exchanged. It sounds like you might have received some misinformation, and I would be happy to look into this further. 
    Using the e-mail you registered on the forum, I was unable to locate your information or order history, so I have a couple of questions to help me assist you better. When did you purchase your Beats? Did you purchase the Geek Squad Protection plan (GSP) for them? Or were you still within the return/exchange period when you went to exchange them? To further clarify, if you did not purchase a GSP then you would have to contact the manufacturer directly for service. If you did purchase a GSP please send me a private message with your name, phone number we have on file for you, and the GSP plan number if you have it. To send me a private message simply click to the right of my signature below. 
    I hope this helps clarify things, and please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

    If you set up the Find My iPod service prior to the iPod going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPod is turned on, connected to a WiFi network, and has not had the Find My iPod service disabled). Log into icloud.com and go to the Find My iPhone section. Then contact the police, giving them any location information you get.
    If you did not set up Find My iPod, then there is no way to track it. Notify the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPod (the iTunes Store, for instance).

  • Everything on my macbook 5.1 was erased and then the person who erased it could not find start up disc to reinstall. i called apple and gave them the serial number and they sent me leopard os 10.5 which is what originally came with the computer. not work

    i was given a macbook 5.1 by my mom, being nice, she erased everything on it, but then could not find the original start up disc. i called apple and had the serial number and said that leopard 10.5 was the operating system that orginally came with it, so i bought it. when i got it,i turned on computer, put in dvd, and immediately shut it off, then turned it back on while pressing letter c. (they told me to do this) i can hear the disc turning but alls i get is blank screen then it shuts down, and restarts. nothing ever shows up on the screen. did i get a wrong disc? should there be something different than just the mac os x leopard 10.5 to get this computer to work again?? thanks for your help!

    It means what it says. The "computer person" formatted it wrongly/ unsuitably. it needs to be formatted again.

    If you never bought the product then you cannot get the serial number.

    Hi, I would like to install my Creative Suite 5.5 Design Standard - I got the serial number and disk, but you are asking for another product and serial number that I dont have? What should I do?

    The serial number that you might have is an upgrade version & it will be asking for a previous qualifying version serial number.

    HELP. 3 years ago I purchased cs3. I had troubles with registering the serial number and used my university's suite instead, and (stupidly) did not sort it out. I am now wanting to subscribe to the online creative cloud with my cs3 discount. Is there any way to find / prove that I had purchased cs3 and locate a serial number? On my Adobe account it does not show my purchase of cs3 (I am guessing because of the trouble with registering my serial number). I have moved house 3 times since the purchase and am unable to locate the packaging or disk. Is there any way to prove my purchase without any serial number or showing under my Adobe account? Please help! Thanks

    The CS3 discount offer is only for retail online product, it does not include education or volume license purchases. Refer to Terms and Conditions | Adobe
    To check whether you had retail CS3 purchase, we need proof of purchase as well as serial number, without which the issue can not be resolved.

    Where do I get the serial number and product key for the version of AutoCAD LT for Mac that I bought from the ITunes store?

    The iTunes Store doesn't sell software for the Mac. I presume you mean the Mac App Store. To the best of my knowledge, no software sold in the Mac App Store has serial numbers nor product keys. For what reason do you think you need them?

  • I installed the serial number and the computer tells me it's not enough numbers.

    I installed CS2 and I installed the serial number and the computer tells me it's not enough numbers.

    Roland Jean your account only has an upgrade for Photoshop CS3 listed under it.  In order to install you need to enter your previous qualifying serial number in addition to your Photoshop CS3 serial number.

  • ITunes Store would not allow me to purchase an album. The store said that I needed to answer a security question.  I had not sent answers to ant security questions previous

    I have been using iTunes for almost two years.  I went to purchase an album and the store would not allow me to purchase until I had answered security questions.  I had never given answered to any questions previously.  So i didn't know the correct answer.  What do I need to do?

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset.
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or, if it's available in your country, you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570
