Same model replacement in different country ?

I have an iPhone 5 model a1429 which was bought in USA. I am now in Switzerland and have bought apple protection plan locally. Since it's the same model that they sell here would the repair the broke home button or replace my product ?

No. You must physically return the phone to the US for ALL warranty/support issues. You will not get that phone serviced in Europe.
BTW: They are NOT the same model iPhones, even though the model numbers are the same. Your US model is a CDMA iPhone. That model is NOT sold in Europe.

  • Battery replacement in different country

    Hi All,
    I found that if your phone is in a different country from where you bought it, Apple will NOT provide you with the battery replacement. So I need to travel from India to UK, just to get the replacement. This when, Apple provided me with a defective phone.
    Is there any alternative.
    Any pointers will be very helpful.
    Thanks,
    Money

  • If i want to get a new or replacement iphone, do i have to get the same model or can i get a different model? Also when replacing can you get it in a different color?

    Hi, i want to buy a replacement iphone because my button doesnt work. I was wonderin if i could buy another model or if i had to get the same one. And if i cant do that, could i at least get the same model but in a different color? Thanks

    You will get a service replacement of the same model, same color. You can ask nicely if you want to change colors but normally they will not do so.

    Hi,
    My model no is HP Pavilion Slimline s3760in Desktop PCs. My PC came with the pre-installed windows vista home premium 32-bit. i had problem with the dvd writer and it has been replaced recently and dvd is working fine.
    When the writer was in defect at that time i have inserted the recovery disc into the dvd drive and wanted to recover my system to the factory settings. there was problem in writing/burning but atleast the dvd rom was able to read it therefore i thought the recover will work but unfortuantely it dint create any recovery to my system into factory settings and when i ejected the dvd i found that scatched has been created on it.  the recovery set of dvd has gone and it is unable to use it at all.
    It has formatted the partition and it was unable to progress further.
    At present i am unable to recover my system from RECOVERY DVD neither from Hard disk. Unable to use F11 recovery. Both are corrupted.
    My friend has purchased same desktop model i.e. s3760in , but he has received pre-installed windows 7.
    Therefore i want to know that if i bring his recovery disc and install it from the dvd.
    q1] then will i get windows 7 and recovery manager for windows 7 or not?
    q2] will it will work or not ?
    Both the model is same, only OS are different.
    please reply asap, as i need to fix this problem.
    thanks inadvance.

    Hello Varadar, As far as I know, there is no such thing as a HP Master disk for a HP Recovery Restore. If the customer creates a set of HP Recovery Restore Disk and they are faulty and the D: Recovery partition is corrupted as well, then the customer can order a set of HP Recovery Restore disk from HP if they are still available for his system.
    HP makes these disk available for just a few years. If these are no longer available the customer would have to purchase a Retail version of the operating system and any other software they may want.
    The HP Recovery Restore disk are made from the software that has been installed on the system when the system was built, so almost every system will have different software.
    The data code the is copied to the HP Recovery Restore Disk set is located in the BIOS of each system and relates to the serial number of the system. That is the key, the serial number of the computer.
    When the HP Recovery Restore disk are used to restore a system, the Recovery Restore disk will read the BIOS for the correct serial number, before it will continue.
    If you were to order the HP Recovery Disk set for a particular system, you would be required to provide the exact Model and Serial number for the system, and then HP could look into their database and determine what software was installed on that machine and then create a set of HP Recovery Restore disk for that serial numbered machine.
    If your hard drive were to become faulty and under warranty, HP would look up the serial number of your system and determine the software that was shipped with this system and then install the software on a hard drive, and if the customer had the capacity to replace the hard drive, HP would ship a new hard drive with the D: Recovery partition already created, and the customer would install the new hard drive.
    If the customer did not have the ability or knowledge to change a hard drive, the system would have to be sent back to HP for the hard drive replacement.
    This is done to prevent pirating of the software and certain legal obligations to the providers of the software, such as Microsoft.
    There is simply no way around this. Many have tried and all have failed. This is by design.
    Hope this clarifies the issue a little more.

  • How to Use Same Models in Different DC's.

    Hi Experts,
                   I want to use same Models in Different DC's. How I achieve it by adding Model to Public parts.
    With Regards,
    Roop Kumar.

    Hi Roop,
    It's enough to reimport Only Parent DC. No need to change in Child DC
    This depends on scenario according to my experience.
    Changes to the model definition can be three ways
    1)Addition: Adding new fields or structures to your model.
    In this case "It's enough to reimport Only Parent DC. No need to change in Child DC", if you are not using the new fields or structures in child DC. 
    2)Modification: Modifying existing fields or structures (e.g. data types) in your model.
    In this case "It's enough to reimport Only Parent DC. No need to change in Child DC", because fields or structures in child DC are reference to the Parent DC.
    3)Deletion:Deleting fields or structures in your model.
    In this case,  "It's enough to reimport Only Parent DC. No need to change in Child DC", if you are not using the deleted fields or structures in child DC.
    But this holds if you make your DC as a public part but not the model and the parent DC's Interface Controller must have the context that you are going to use in child DC.  You will find more help [here |/docs/DOC-8661#section5]

  • If I already have a particular app under one apple Id and I purchase the same app under a different Id for the same device, will it overwrite or replace the previous or will I have two of the same app on the same device??

    If I already have a particular app under one apple Id and I purchase the same app under a different Id for the same device, will it overwrite or replace the previous or will I have two of the same app on the same device?? 
    I'm asking because I purchased an app with an id that has been cancelled so I cannot update that particular app. I can purchase the app with my new id but I don't want to do so if its going to erase all the data I have with the previous purchase...

    Figured it out. Thanks.

  • I have an iphone 4 and it's not working, if i pay can apple replace it with the same model even though it's no longer for sale?

    I have an iphone 4 and it's not working, if i pay can apple replace it with the same model even though it's no longer for sale?

    If the iPhone has not been opened or serviced by other than Apple
    or authoriized service provider (there are a few other requirements),
    you should be eligible for out of warranty replacemement for $149 US.
    Apple maintains sufficient stock for replacements even for iPhones that
    are no longer available for purchase. You may be better off upgrading to
    a newer version than paying $149 to stay with the iPhone 4.
    What is no longer working? If you provide more details as to the problem
    and what troubleshooting steps you have taken, some one may offer
    a solution.

  • I have an iphone 4s 16gb black. i bought it carrier locked to T-mobile Macedonia, i wanted to ask you is possible to use in T-mobile Croatia, i mean same operatro different country.. greetings

    I have an iphone 4s 16gb black. i bought it carrier locked to T-mobile Macedonia, i wanted to ask you is possible to use in T-mobile Croatia, i mean same operatro different country.. greetings

    Only the carrier your phone is locked to can authorize the official unlocking of your phone, & fortunately for you T-Mobile in Macedonia offers official unlocking. So, contact them regarding cost/procedure to get your phone unlocked.

  • Table  V_T500P- define different country grouping to the same company code

    Hello Gurus,
    When I try to update table  V_T500P with different country grouping to two personnel areas that have same company code I get the following message:
    "The country grpg of company code xxx has been changed. This company code is used in other pers. areas. The country grouping will also be changed. Make changes?"
    How can I define two different countries to the same company code in this table?
    For example-
    Personnel Area DE09 (Germany), Company Code 0234 (KPG EAMER)- country grouping 01
    Personnel Area DK05 (Denmark), Company Code 0234 (KPG EAMER)- country grouping 09
    when I try to change the country grouping of one of the countries it changes them both with the massage I wrote above.
    Thanks for your help,
    Ronit.

    Thanks for your answer!
    Actually, I know that there is a way because the initial definition in my system was: different country groupings to different company code (can I attach here a screen shot?)
    But when I try to change one of the country grouping it chnages all the countries from the same company code.
    Example:
    In the begining it was:
    Pers. Area SE01 Company code 0234, country grouping 06
    Pers. Area IL03 Company code 0234, country grouping IL
    Pers. Area DE03 Company code 0234, country grouping 01
    Now if I'm trying to chage the country grouping of Pers. Area IL03 from IL to 05 (for example), it changes everything. I know there is a way to change it without changing them all. I just don't know what is the way...
    I will appriciate if someone can help!
    Thanks,
    Ronit.

  • After restoring from backup on a new phone (same model, just replacement) all my apps are showing as waiting....I have sync'd but still without any joy - this has been going on for hours

    It just means some spammer is using your email address as the sender address for their spam. This is very easy to do - anyone can do it simply by changing the From email address in their email program. It does not mean your account was hacked or you have a virus (there are no current Mac viruses on the loose anyway, nor has there been for years).
    There's nothing you can do about it. It can happen to anyone and the spammers will move on to using someone else's email address before long.

  • HT1807 I travelled to a different country & using a new sim; with the change in sim, I have been unable to use iMessage & FaceTime. Cant replace replace the earlier no with the current one and it reads error. how to correct this?

    I traveled to a different country and using a new sim/new carrier. With the change in the sim, I have been unable to use the iMessage--outside of WiFi coverage area, and FaceTime at all time. I believe it is due to the phone number registered as an address in the phone, which has not changed with the change of sim; so it countinues to showing as an error while varifying the data.
    Wonder if any of you are in a position to advise as to how to address the following.
    1. I need to input correct phone no, meaning the number I am using in the correct location.
    2. I need to activate FaceTime and be able to use it.
    3. I need to be able to use iMessage and/or ordinary sms while outside of WiFi coverage area.
    It may be mentioned in my current location I don't have GPRS on the cell phone which is the case in my regular station.
    Thanks for your help.

  • I recently cracked my iphone 4s, and I am under warranty/ Icare, will they give me a new iphone5? or just replace my current iphone with the same model?

    Iphone 4s -> iphone 5?

    Hi Friend,
    It is depends on how you crack your device. Is it by an accident?
    Do you have iCare? If yes, check the warranty coverage. If the iCare warranty covers this kind of accident, probably they will fix the problem in your old iPhone, or give to you a new one of the same model (iPhone 4S).
    Hope it helps

  • How to Purchase iTunes Music in a Different Country

    Hi there,
    I'm reading that you have to be in a country and you can only download music on that "home" country's site. My problem is that there is music available on iTunes in a different country that I would love to purchase but cannot because I'm not resident there. So... is there a solution to this? Problem is that what I'm looking for is extremely hard to find where I currently live, in fact it's impossible. Is the purchase dependent upon your credit card billing address? Just wondering if there's any kind of solution to the dilemma or whether this is all legal stuff causing the issue. I mean, I can go on-line and purchase an item in, say, Europe, charge it to my North American credit card with the appropriate currency conversion applied. So, why can this not be done in iTunes?
    If there's a solution please let me know. Thanks!
    L.

    Sorry, but at this time there is no solution. It's due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies and other rights holders.
    Is the purchase dependent upon your credit card billing address?
    The billing address is primarily to verify your residence in your country.
    ? Just wondering if there's any kind of solution to the dilemma or whether this is all legal stuff causing the issue.
    It is indeed "legal stuff" and there is, I'm sorry to say, no solution. From This Business of Music (10th Edition) (by M. William Krasilovsky and Sydney Shemel) (and thanks to the Mimico Kid for the reference) :
    The difficulty of establishing workable business models for digital files (...) extends to where they are sold and where they are played. This is the issue of territoriality, and it is an illustration of how the Internet makes it necessary to reexamine basic assumptions that have been taken for granted (...).
    (....) In the music business the primary problem is that copyrights are national and therefore specific rights are tied to national laws and the interpretations of national courts.
    (.... T)hough we can one day hope to see the development of common standards with respect to copyright, the fact that the music business is building upon a history of nation-specific contractual relationships means that the goal of universal international standards is not, for the forseeable future, a practical one.
    (...) Adding to the difficulty (...) the copyrights themselves may have been assigned to different companies in different territories. The best hope for a cleaner start and a simpler future is worldwide recognition that digital uses are in fact - and should be in law - totally new.
    The content owners don't like cross-border sales of CDs either, but there's nothing they can do to stop such sales. They can, though, and do stop cross-border download sales, since if the download stores refuse, the rights holders won't license the tracks to that store.
    So unless and until the record companies, et. al, all get together and agree to allow download stores to sell cross-border, there's absolutely nothing Apple or any other download store can do. They have to license for each country individually, and the holders of the rights for a given country may not with to grant such a license, and in some cases there is no one who holds the distribution rights for a given item in your country.

  • Multiple DEVL_PROJECT_ID for the same model in CZ_DEVL_PROJECTS Table.

    Hi,
    Did anyone came across this issue!! I am triggering the config engine from back and and trying to pick up a model but it has multiple devl_project_id's. :(
    I could see multiple DEVL_PROJECT_ID for the same model in CZ_DEVL_PROJECTS Table. Apart from DEVL_PROJECT_ID and created_by_date every thing looks the same.
    Below are the 2 records the data from the table
    select * from CZ.CZ_DEVL_PROJECTS where product_key = '122:17056' and DEVL_PROJECT_ID in (12943,15321)

    It can be possible to have multiple devl_project_id for the same model in cz_devl_projects Table.
    Case -1 : When you delete the existing model and re-import again.
    case 2:
    When you publish the model locally, it will create the same copy of the record with different devl_project_id, creation_date, last update_date etc..\
    You can see that for published records the last_updat_login, checkout_user will be null and for the original model, last_update_login,checkout_user (if model is locked) will not be null.

    how can i send an itunes gift voucher to someone in a different country? I live in the UK and want to send a voucher to someone in the US

    No, they are only valid in your own country - so you can only send gift certificates (or gift actual content) to people whose account is based in the same country as your own.
