Replacing sliver band on iPhone 4S... Will apple do it or third party...?

Will apple replace it for a fee? I had my 4s in a bumper and like many other have the rubbing affect and think apple should fix it for free but that's beside the point anyone know if apple will or not I can buy the replacement part for $39 only issue is its a DIY and rather not break my phone even though I have fixed many phones in the past rather not risk my only phone usually I buy broken phone and see If I can fix them and resell them but not going to play chicken with 4s. 

Apple will not replace the part, they do not repair iPhones.  They may replace the entire device but it will likely be an Out of Warranty replacement which will cost $199 for the 4S.
Apple does not sale parts.
If you have it replaced by anyone else, Apple will not touch the device in the future if there are issues that require warranty or out of warranty service.

  • Will Apple Pages support a third-party font that is not compatible with Microsoft Word?

    Will Apple Pages support a third-party font that is not compatible with Microsoft Word?  I do not want to purchase Pages unless I can use it for this one very specific purpose.  How can I determine the correct answer before purchase?
    Many thanks for any guidance you can offer.

    Hmmm ... I see the font in my Font Book and in Suitcase Fusion, but it doesn't appear on the list of fonts in either Word for Mac or Text Edit, no matter what I tried.  I attempted quitting all applications, cleaning the cache using Suitcase Fusion, and rebooting the computer, but no dice.
    You think this is an installation or configuration problem my local Apple store could help fix ... not an underlying incompatibility?  If so, I will take it in.
    Please know I sincerely appreciate the help.  I'm at my rope's end on a project this evening and truly grateful for the reinforcement.  Thank you.

  • Who will do benefit enrollment? third party or In sap itself? who is the third party vendor?

    who will do benefit enrollment? third party or In sap itself? who is the third party vendor?

    Hi Rakesh,
    Who should handle benefit enrollement depends on client requirement.
    In SAP Benefit Administration module we do have enrollment function.
    Here is the document
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/7e/8a5f51545711d1891c0000e8322f96/content.htm
    Client may chose to only store benefit related information and take help of other third party vendor and use interfaces to communicate it to SAP for payroll and master data maintenance.
    Aon Hewitt is one of the well known vendors. Might be more not sure of all names.
    Hope it answers your question.
    Regards,

  • If my sound doesnt work on my iphone 4 will apple replace it?

    help me!!

    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 5 and 5C. 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.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
    iPod Service Support and Costs
    iPhone Service Support and Costs
    iPad Service Support and Costs
    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:
    1. iResq or Google for others.
    2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

  • Did latest iPhone update and now non of my third party apps work.  They open then close immediately.   I tried to restore but can't as my iphone wont sync with itunes now and I will loose my apps.  Also my largest app "Sat Nav" has gone.  Help ??

    Hi All
    I have run into problems with my iPhone 4.  I hadn't done an update for a while so decided to get my itunes and iphone 4 up to date.  I downloaded all the latest versions.  However now non of my third party apps work and my largest one has vanished.  I try and open them and they flash up and then close again. I thought the easiest thing to do was to restore so I tried to syn my apps onto itunes so I wouldn't loose them.  However it won't let me sync the apps onto iTunes.  It ill allow me to syn the old version when I just started but since then I have bought a dozen other apps.  Can anyone help.  thanks

    Well this won't work for me...
    I had all of my apps and music stored in iTunes, I updated to the newest 9.2 iTunes and did a 4.0 update to my iPhone 3G all the while not noticing that EVERYTHING IN iTUNES was GONE. When I got done updating my iPhone it was late so i went to bed... Next day came back to sync everything and thats when I saw it was all gone...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451
    did what the link said and NOW I have all my 6K+ MUSIC back but not ONE APP. The App's are completely gone from when you nav. to the location the link says... There isn't a mobile sync folder there...
    NOT SURE WHAT TO DO NEXT... Very Frustrated and MAD. I don't want to redownload all my apps manually. TO many to do it that way.

  • If I cracked my iphone 4 will apple give me a new one for $200

    I dropped my iPhone 4, with a bumper on it, and the front cracked to ****. The phone still works perfectly and everything. I know warranties dont cover those kind of damages and neither does apple care which I have. I have heard I can get a new or refubished one for 200 dollars if I take it to an apple store. This blows but I will pay the 200 if this is true.

    Out-of-Warranty Service
    If you own an iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will service your iPhone for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below.
    iPhone model
    Out-of-Warranty Service
    iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS,
    iPhone 3G, Original iPhone
    $199
    A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if you arrange service online or by calling Apple Technical Support. All fees are in U.S. dollars and are subject to local tax. When setting up out-of-warranty service, Apple will request credit card pre-authorisation for the maximum service fee listed above.  This amount will be deducted from your credit limit. The final service fee we charge will be determined during testing and may be less than the service fee listed above.Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPhone that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPhone is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. iPhones that are repaired or replaced have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare Protection Plan for iPhone coverage, whichever is longer. Please see Apple's Repair Terms And Conditions for further details."

  • Will Apple still replace my power button if my screen isn't the original apple screen?

    I took an iPhone I have into Apple last month and they said that for them to replace the power button they had to replace my screen first because it was a little bit off. I didn't want to pay so I went ahead and replaced the screen myself. Will Apple still replace my power button (through the program of course) if the screen isn't the original Apple screen? It is an iPhone 5 64gb

    Ralph is correct. When you replace anything on your phone yourself, you void any warranty that is left on the phone, and even any support thereafter. Apple does not support third party products, and they will not touch your phone if you are willing to replace things yourself instead of spending the extra to go to a store to do it right. Sorry.

  • When will Apple allow background processes for the iPhone?

    Can't find a suitable subforum so I'll post it here, please refer me to the correct Apple forum otherwise.
    When will Apple allow background processes for the iPhone?
    When will Apple allow Alerts from 3rd party apps?
    Even my first Palm Pilot allowed developers to use Alert beeps.
    Why is Apple crippling the iPhone?
    If they continue this, Android will be the winner.
    Or will the next SDK allow this?

    Background processing, simply won't. They already said they won't and explained why.
    However, they are currently adding "Push" ability to developers (soon). Originally they did say they were shooting for Sept (but obviously that has passed). Nobody can say "why" it is late or when it will come. Just know it is coming.
    Push in case you don't know will let a service (one service) run in the background that apple makes for the phone. that service will ping apple's servers. Apps that want to "run" in the background have to register with that service thus lets say AIM is on your phone, you send a message and close...somebody responds. AIM's servers will send notification to the push service...then the phone will alert you of a notification in the AIM app, you open (thus starts the app again) and it gets the message.

  • Damaged third party fixed iPhone out of warranty replacement

    Okay so the humidity or something yesterday made both my iPad 1 and iPhone 4s screens screw up.
    My camera lense fogged up and was all condensation-y so all pics were blurry.
    It looks like there is a smudge on the touchscreens. The iPad was typing and click stuff by itself. iPhone keyboard won't let me use the bottom keys in msgs and certain apps so the touchscreen is not responding. iPhone wake/sleep bottom was turning off and on and screenshoting.
    It was like the symptoms of water damage except I never dunked them in water or anything and the water damage indicators on iPhone aren't red. I don't know if iPad 1 has water damage indicators.
    So right that afternoon I passed apple store on george st, told me they were busy and I had to book an appointment for tommorrow.
    I put my iPad in rice last night and it's fine now... Just smudge on the touch screen.
    So today I bought my iPhone into the genius bar, hoping to get it fixed or replaced because it's not even 2 years old and if you argue enough the Australia consumer laws blah blah sometimes you can get an out of warranty replacement for free.
    By this time, the camera condensation has evaporated and sleep/wake button stopped spazzing but keyboard was still stuffed.
    They said they can't do anything, not even offer the $279 replacement, because when I cracked my screen I got it replaced by a third party.
    Said it was because the screen is non genuine that my iPhone is acting like this.
    Which it isn't, because my iPad also screwed up which has a genuine screen.
    Sorry about the essay.
    So how does apple tell if I got the screen fixed or not?
    Has anybody gotten apple to fix a third party screen replacement phone?
    If my iPad didn't start working again, would they have fixed it?

    The genuine Apple module has various identifying marks that are missing from a third-party part.  Apple will not attempt to repair an iDevice that was "fixed" by an end-user, or an unauthorized third-party.
    "If my iPad didn't start working again, would they have fixed it?"
    Your question is ambiguous but, if you mean "if my iPad failed - not due to accidental damage - and I returned it to Apple without having a third-party muck around with it, would Apple fix it?"  Apple has an out-of-warranty exchange (not repair) iPads, and you'll be charged for it.
