Shattered screen, still under warranty.

I've had my white ipod touch 4th generation for about two weeks. The ipod fell off my desk onto a carpet floor and the screen shattered. I was wondering if, because i'm still under warranty, that I could get if fixed for free, or at least cheaper

A broken screen cause by dropping is not coverd by the warranty. It is not insurance.  However, sometimes if you make an appointment at the Genius bar of an Apple store they will exchange it for free. Otherwise the exchange price is $99, $149 or $199 depending upon the capacity.

    Hello HaithamOkeely,
    We've an article that provides the following troubleshooting steps that may help stabilize your iPhone.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

  • Screen is broken...still under warranty?

    my screen cracked and i asked the tech guys about it. they said that they can repair it free of charge. so i click on the link they give me and it says i have to purchase their service. how to i get them to repair it for free? and it is still under warranty.

    look i know that there was some ipods that were
    having lcd issues and the screen was cracking inside
    instead of externally. that WAS covered by the
    warranty, or have u not read previous posts where it
    was covered. don't get all snotty with me in ur
    replies either. u Don't know everything
    That was a very very very small fraction of iPod nanos. I do not believe that iPods are still experiencing that.
    From this article...
    Our figures show this issue has affected less than 1/10 of 1 per cent of the total iPod nano units that we've shipped (as of that point--many months ago). I doubt that newer iPod nanos are having the same issue.

    Apple's Limited Warranty http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/ for iPad excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications.
    Out-of-Warranty Service
         If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace (Apple doesn't repair) your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below. (The replacement will most likely be a refurbished iPad in a brown box, however, it has a new screen, back and battery.)   
    iPad model
    Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
    iPad mini
    $219
    iPad 3rd, 4th generation
    $299
    iPad 2, iPad
    $249
    A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
    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 iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service. See http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad
    Make a Genius Bar Reservation
    http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
    You may can get the iPad repaired at 3rd party repair sources for less $, however, any remaining Apple warranty will be voided.

  • I cracked my screen for my touch, it still works but the cracked is big and annoying . I'm still under warranty, will they fix it still?

    I cracked my screen for my touch, it still works but the cracked is big and annoying . I'm still under warranty, will they fix it still?
    It works fine. Some of my album covers are mixed up though, not sure its because of the fall. help me

    It is very unlikely that Apple with replace your iPod under warranty since the warranty covers manufacturing and design defects. A crack screen is usually not caused by a defect.  You can alway make an appointment at ter Genius Bar of an Apple store and ask.

  • HT4528 How much would a cracked screen for iphone 4S cost, if my phone is still under warranty?

    How much would a cracked screen for iphone 4S cost, if my phone is still under warranty?

    Razmee209 is correct, out of warranty repair/replacement cost for and iPhone 4s is $199, and the reason you would have to pay for that Kats524 is because accidental damage is not covered under your limited hardware warranty. Hope this helps, best of luck to you.

  • HT4528 Can I get a screen replacement for free if i'm still under warranty?

    Can I get a screen replacement for free if i'm still under warranty?

    Not if it was caused by accidental damage. You can make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and see if they do screen replacement. If they do it is $149, if they can't it is $229 for an out-of-warranty replacement. If you bought AppleCare + it is a $49 deductible.

    Philly_Phan,I am curious whay you said "If there is no sign of abuse,", a broken screen is almost always caused by abuse/accidental damage, and that is what the out-of-warranty exchange is for.
    A broken screen is an accident but it is not abuse.  However, if the owner attempts a repair him/herself, that's abuse.  Although unrelated to the damage, if the device has been jailbroken, that's also abuse.

    Call apple or take it into an Apple store. What's wrong is beyond a user fix.

  • My ipod touch is still under warranty but the screen has been cracked for about 1month but the wifi has recently started to play up and wont work will apple cover this and give me a refurbished one whern i go to my appointment at the genius bar??

    my ipod touch is still under warranty but the screen cracked about 1 month ago and just yesterday my wifi on my ipod isw playing up and not working very well will apple give me a new one at my genius appointment?

    Very likely not.   A bvroken screen is not covered by the warranty. It also shows abuse aht voaid the warranty for the entire iPod.  Howecver, sometimes the Genius will exchange it at no cost. Otherwise yu will have to pay $99, $149 or $%199 depending upon the capacity,

  • My  ipod classic just stopped working.  Will not turn on, will not do anything.  Black screen.  It is still under warranty.  What do I do to get it fixed or replaced?

    My ipod classis just stopped working.  It is still under warranty and I need to know where the warranty information is so I can get it fixed or replaced?

    If you have tried all of the suggestions mentioned under the appropriate section in this Apple support document, you may need to have your iPod serviced or replaced either by Apple or a third party service. 
    iPod won't turn on
    If the iPod is still under Apple's 1 year warranty against manufacturing defects, Apple may swap it out for you at no cost if they don't conclude the issue to be the result of abuse or accidental damage.  If you have an Apple Store nearby schedule an appointment with them and show them what you are experiencing.

  • How do I know if my iPod Touch is still under warranty?

    I recently cracked my iPod Touch's screen and I need to know if it is still under warranty, as I bought it from Wal-Mart. It's a very minor crack, and the iPod still works perfectly, but any assistance will be taken with gratitude.

    Cracked screens are not covered. You will need to pay to have that fixed.
