    I inadvertantly dropped my iphone 3 and now have a white screen with green vertical lines to the right of the screen.  It won't sync with itunes due to an error. What can I do?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    If it does not resolve the issue, the device is permanently damaged and will require replacement.

  • I lost my iPod touch and now have a new one.  Is there a way to transfer all the songs on have in iTunes onto the new iPod?

    I lost my iPod touch and bought a new one?  Is there a way to transfer all the songs I have in iTunes onto the new iPod?  I am scared I will lose it all when I sync the new one or that I have to start all over.   Please help!!

    You can do better than that. You can click on the Restore button that appears under your device in iTunes. This will restore your iPod to factory settings as if it were fresh out of the box. But don't worry. By doing a restore, you will then be given the option to "Restore from Backup." This will allow you to restore the state of your previous iPod!!

  • I have an iPOD mini library and now have a IPhone 4S.  I updated my library and synced my phone to the library but can not figure out how to get the music library to download to my  iphone

    I have an iPod mini library which I have update. I now have an iPhone 4S which I have synced to the library using a MS XP computer. I can not figure out how to get the library to download to my iPhone?

    Thanks,  This caused me to go back and try again since the solution seemed so simple.  What I did was when it started downloading, it started with the iphones apps to my computer.  I did not want the apps downloaded on my computer so I stopped it.  If I would have waited, the music was uploaded right after the apps were downloaded.

  • HT5866 my screen on my 5C have crack n I need to replace the lcd screen with digitizer is this possible?

    I need to replace my crack 5C screen, any help

    If you are in the US, some Apple stores have the ability to replace a screen, some do not. If they can, the cost is only $149. If they cannot, then without Apple Care + you would need to purchase an out of warranty replacement at a cost of $269. If you do have Apple Care +. you can make 2 total exchanges over the 2 year life of Apple Care + with a $69 deductible.

    Which reset procedures?
    Try this... press the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • How can you tell if you need to just replace the glass on an ipod 4g or the glass and the LCD screen?

    i just broke my ipod touch 4g about a month ago and i think it is just the glass but i am not sure. It cracked and the glass started falling out of the top right corner and today, the white part started cracking. is this just part of the glass or is it part of the LCD screen? I want to figure this out because i dont want to order a repair kit with an LCD screen if i dont have to. thanks in advanced

    On the 4G the outer glass and the LCD screen is one bonded unit.

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.

    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:

  • Display burn in - Apple does not want to replace the LCD

    Recently my iMac 24” LCD display began to have “screen burn ins“ or image persistence on the LCD. I have done extensive online research about the issue, I tried setting my screensaver to pure white and running the apple screensaver to resolve the issue. I did not use my computer any more extensively than any of my other macs, so the image burn in came as a surprise to me this early in the Mac’s life span. I understand that the issue exists, and would not surprise me if my computer was several years old and it was never turned off. I will have to argue that the “screen burn in” happened too early for my iMac.
    I took my iMac to an Apple store and waited to speak with a Genius and have a diagnosis. After the Genius ran his diagnosis he said that I am out of warranty, however he agreed with me that it was too early for something like this to happen. He proposed that my LCD screen would be replaced, and said that he would give me a break and make a “one time warranty exception and not charge me for the new LCD and replacement based on the circumstance.” The genius placed an order for an LCD panel for my iMac, printed out the work order and shook my hand, I was extremely grateful thanked the Genius for making such an exception.
    After leaving my iMac in the store for repairs for 5 days, with excitement and anticipation I picked up my iMac which was claimed to be “fixed”. I got home opened up the box and plugged in the iMac and the first thing that I noticed was a dead pixel that I recognized from the old LCD, what are the odds of the new display having a dead pixel in the exact same spot? I called back to the apple store with my repair number at hand and confirmed that my LCD was never replaced.
    I thought to myself, maybe they fixed it, but just to be safe I used the computer until I noticed nothing changed the “burn in issue” is still here. So I created a background image in photoshop to purposely leave on for an hour as proof of the problem. I called back to the apple store early in the morning and talked with the technical center, the girl on the phone said “I remember your mac” I thought we had it fixed. I asked to make sure that the LCD that was ordered for the sole purpose of fixing the burn in issue which I had was still at the store, it was confirmed that it was.
    I came by the apple store and a different Genius looked at my computer, saw the excessive burn in. He ran the “Flurry” Screen saver, which helped remove the current burn in but was still not fully removed. He then told me that they would not replace the LCD, and that I should set my screen saver to every 5 minutes and lower the brightness to reduce the load on the screen. I argued that even if I can get rid of the problem after running the screensaver for at least an hour, the burn in just keeps coming back, and fast too.
    I came home setup the screensaver settings and began using my machine, not using it for even more than an hour I saw the burn ins from the store and some new ones that came from my doc, and finder window and shadow lines distorting the entire screen, almost making it look like mud lines.
    I took a few pictures with a DSL camera at the highest resolution, but I am not sure if this shows enough to really show:
    Doc burned in:

    #2 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1477936/apple/DSC_0754.jpg (need to make it 100% to see)
    Does any one know what I should do now?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I think that regardless that this was a different Genius, the Apple Store has made a commitment to you to repair the iMac out of warranty and should honor this commitment. I would go back to the Apple Store and speak directly to the Store Manager with your original paperwork in hand for the repair that was not completed.
    Should you not receive satisfaction from the Store Manager then I would call Apple Care and immediately ask to have your call escalated to a Customer Care representative. Explain the issue to the rep and ask for their assistance in receiving the repair commitment originally made to you by the Apple Store.
    Have all necessary paperwork for the committed repair at hand during your phone conversation. Take notes. Get the name and the position of each person to whom you speak. Speak firmly but politely. Do not get angry or make any threats. The minute you mention a lawyer or any other such threat the conversation will be over and Apple will fall back on the fact the Mac is out of warranty and any opportunity of getting a repair will likely be gone.

  • Replace the Glossy Screen with the Matte Screen on a 2008 Macbook Pro?

    Can you replace the Glossy Screen with the Matte Screen on a 2008 Macbook Pro?
    Where would I get a Matte Screen for a reasonable price if I could change it?

    There are a number of issues you should consider before embarking on this project.
    1. If you have a late-2008 unibody MBP, you are undoubtedly aware that there was never any anti-glare option offered for that machine. So there is no anti-glare display that was made to work with it.
    2. If you choose to replace only the LCD panel and not the entire display assembly — which is probably feasible but involves a great deal of painstaking work — you will also need to buy (separately) the aluminum bezel that takes the place of the glossy cover glass panel in models that came equipped with the nonglare screen. The bezel covers and protects the edges of the LCD and the delicate electronic connections there, and hides all that from view.
    3. If you go that route, you will have to make sure that the cabling related to the display you are installing is identical to the cabling related to your original display. This means checking to make sure the cable lengths, connectors and routing both within the display assembly and hinge cover and within the lower case of the computer are all the same.
    4. If you choose to replace the entire display assembly with one that contains a nonglare LCD, you will have the entire, intact glossy display assembly available to sell afterward. If you replace only the LCD panel, the LCD and glass cover panel that you remove will have much less resale value and are likely to be much harder to sell at all, because you won't practically be able to offer any warranty with them and because there are probably far fewer people willing to tackle the fussy, risky display disassembly process than are willing to replace the whole assembly as a unit.
    5. Even if you choose to replace the entire assembly, you will need to verify that the cables dangling from the replacement display assembly are the right lengths and have the right connectors to tie into your lower case properly. Because the assembly will have come from a later MBP model than yours, cable routing and connectors may have changed from one to the other.
    If this all sounds more daunting than you were expecting, you may want to consider just applying a nonglare film to the glass covering your present screen. If you aren't happy with the results, you can fall back on the replacement option.

  • Do I need to get an inverter or just the lcd screen?

    I tried posting before and it didn't show up, so here I go again.  I broke the screen on A1350S4527 laptop.  I am able to hook it up to an external monitor and it works fine.  I have looked at posted instructions online for replacing the screen and one seems to suggest that some Toshiba models require the replacement of both the lcd screen and inverter if the screen is broken.  Is it necessary to replace both on this model?

    If u broke lcd only, turn it on and see if still have backlight on,
    you need to disassembly the lcd to see if inverter was packed-fit inside lcd frame.
    Most of laptop did not packed the inverter inside lcd frame.
    Anyway, what tipe of you lcd ? LED or Lamp?
    I never deal with lcd with led but with lamp, and most of them I just change the lcd, not inverter
    Hope this help...
