Smashed iPod Touch screen in UK... where do you go to if you need it fixed?

Where can you send an iPod touch in the UK, besides the Apple Store (which is about 80 miles away, the closest one).
For iPhones i know you can go to O2. Can you get it sent off from where you bought it (e.g. Argos?)
Thanks

You posted the following bellow in another question and then said you got it fixed. I am having the same problem. How did you fix it?
You said
Hi, this is the info of the Extreme:
-IP 192.168.0.2
-NAME Seagate FreeAgent 102D
I have tried the following advise at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1331
"Windows XP and Vista
Note: With AirPort Base Station Update 2007-002 or later, AirPort Disk Agent has been renamed to AirPort Base Station Agent. If you have not installed this update yet, substitute AirPort Disk Agent for AirPort Base Station Agent in the steps below.
Mounting using AirPort Base Station Agent
1. Launch the AirPort Base Station Agent from C:
Program Files\AirPort\
2. Ensure that the task bar menu is enabled from AirPort Disks
3. Click the AirPort Base Station Agent icon in the Taskbar
4. Enter the user name and password
Mounting by mapping a Network Drive
1. Go to My Computer (Start > My Computer)
2. From the menu, pull down Tools and select "Map Network Drive"
3. Enter a drive letter that is not in use (for example, "Z")
4. Enter the path to the drive. This is formatted as: \\IPaddress\drivename (for example, \\10.0.1.1\mydrive)
Mounting using Server Connection
1. Select Start > Run and enter the IP address of the AirPort Extreme Base Station (802.11n). (by default
10.0.1.1)
2. When prompted, enter a username and password
3. A window will open containing folders for each hard drive connected to the AirPort Extreme Base Station (802.11n)"
I have tried this:
\\192.168.0.2\Seagate FreeAgent 102D
It says
Attempted to connect to \\192.168.0.2\Seagate FreeAgent 102D...
Then I am given a message of
"The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error has occured:
The Specified server cannot perform the requested operation."
Or that the drive is not working correctly.
If i just type "
192.168.0.2" in on its own it takes me to my own computer with my printers and public folder.
HELP?

Why is it when i plug in my ipod touch to my computer the message "you need a 10.6.3 version of itunes or later" pops up even if it's already updated?

My itunes is updated i believe since i check for downloads and there wasn't any. Now whenever i plug in my ipod touch a error pops up telling my to go to itunes.com and update to 10.6.3 or later. i even tried to download it from itunes then it said i needed 64 bit windows but i already do. help? iOS 6

When i tried the iTunes64Setup.exe. the file is not vaild with 32winapplication
many thanks. That one suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

Why is my ipod touchs screen blank?

how do you mean? does it not turn on? or is it on but nothing booting up?
If it doesn't turn on is it possible that the battery is totally drained? if so, charge it fora while and see if that fixes it. If it doesn't boot up you can try resetting it - hold down the sleep and home keys, past the red power down slider and until you see the silver apple logo come up.
You can also try restoring it with iTunes.
If that doesn't work then you may need to take it into the Apple store and have them take a look at it.

Can you get your cracked iPod Touch screen repaired if you colored the top of it with highlighters? If you can't, how do I remove the highlighter?

I cracked my iPod Touch screen at the top where the front camera is and colored the cracks in with highlighter. I want to know if I can still get it repaired even if its colored in? If I can't, how do I remove the highlighter?

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.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.

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. Start with Google to search for these.

My iPod touch screen is dark, brightness setting all the way up. how do I get it back to normal?

My iPod touch screen is dark, brightness is completely up and can barely see it. Started all of a sudden.

I am experiencing the same problem. There are lots of discussion threads on this topic. Several people have had short term luck restoring their touch or wiping it clean and starting as a new ipod again. Not a great option, but better that losing the darn thing completely. What has worked for me several times is to power the unit down and leave it for a day or two then it seems to work again. It seems clear to me that this is not a hardware issue, as when it first powers up the screen is fine and sometimes it lasts and other times only for 5 seonds. Also since resetting the software address it, there is no problem with the hardware. SO where is tech support in addressing this. My gen 2 ipod no loger has any sofware updates, thanks apple!
Anybody found a long term fix for this???????

HELP!!! iPod Touch screen SHATTERED :O

So by the title you have probably figured out the depressing reality I am faced with: My iPod Touch screen has finally shattered into a million pieces :'( It even had a semi-hard case on, but unfortunately for me it landed right on the weakest part of the structure - the thin piece metal between the 30-pin dock connector and the screen, and also where the case is extremely thin and flimsy. That bent into the glass, sending hairline cracks up to the top of the screen as well as shattering the glass around the home button, and as all us iOS device users should know, even gorilla glass can't handle that kind of impact. Luckily I have a screen protector on, so the glass didn't go everywhere and I can still use it without risking a trip to the hospital.
Sadly, my iPod is more than 2 years old and I didn't get Applecare support, so my question is...what are my chances of getting it replaced or even a discount on their currently ridiculous pricing ($109 + $19.95 P&H!) if I walk into an Apple store and ask? I have heard of many success stories of people getting their devices replaced, but I realise that the fact that it has passed its 2nd birthday will go harshly against my persuasive attempts.
Also, I live in Australia if that makes a difference. Here are some pics:

Dang! I did some googling around, and there are 2 stores right here in Sydney that can replace your old iPod Touch screen with a brand new genuine screen for $89. Do you think it's worth it or should I just get a 5th Gen iPod for $329?

Preventing iPod touch screen from going blank when iPod's powered.

Hi there, is there anyway (or app) to prevent the iPod touch's screen from going blank/turning off?
This is why I ask...
I often use my iPod touch as my remote, where I choose which of my iMac's iTunes songs to play next and besides I'm always revising/updating the songs' ratings. My iPod has a password to unlock and so, doing what I just said often can be bothersome. I've found out that, if the iPod's own music is playing when connected to the power, the screen never goes blank, it only dims, which is very helpful but, since I'm not listening to the iPod, I always have to turn the iPod's volume all the way down. Also this increments the number of plays to all those songs played back which is something I don't like either and so, again my question is, does anybody know if there is any way or app that, when the iPod's connected to power, only dimmed the screen (but not allow it to go blank)?
Hope you can help.
Thanks.
Jorge...

Go to Settings>General>Auto-Lock and set time to never. If you have a corporate exchange mail account on the iPod that may prevent using never (Never not present).

Will apple fix a broken ipod touch screen

my friend smashed his ipod touch screen and its completly broken he bought it from futureshop and his dad threw out the recept but he got it a month ago will apple fix it?

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price unless:
An iPod that is ineligible for warranty service may be eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. For example, an iPod that has failed due to accidental damage or liquid damage is ineligible for warranty service but eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. However, 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.

My ipod touch screen is broken and whenever i press the lock screen button, the screen is white, what can i do to fix this?

so my ipod touch screen is broken, and whenver i try to unlock the ipod screen, all that i can see is the top right hand corner of my ipod, and the rest is all whited out. Also, the jack which support the headphones to stay in place, one of the balls in the jack is pushed in which causes the headphones and stereo jack to slip all the time. I also have a problem which is when i try to sync my ipod to itunes. Last time i did it(which was 4 years ago), i synced my ipod and i started out with 225 songs, after the syncing process was complete, i ended up with 119 songs. I'm afraid to resync my ipod or back up my ipod to a computer because i dont want to lose the wonderful collection of 589 songs i have now. I'd really appreciate it if i got some feedback. Thanks.

My iPod touch screen says it is disabled. Connect to iTunes. When I connect the device to the computer a window pops up and said that the iPod is locked and I need to enter the passcode on the iPod..... I can't get it to do anything. Any ideas?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
