Two dents in the backside of newly purchased iPad mini

Hello all,
It was highly surprising (perhaps not happy!) to see a flaw in new iPad mini with retina display+wi-fi. I purchased it on 26-March-2014 at Currents Apple reseller, Coimbatore, India. Keeping the brand in mind, I never had a feeling to check for any flaws in a new apple product :-(
The box was new and we cut it open. I created the apple ID at store and returned home after the purchase. While checking the product after reaching home, I could see two small dents(of size 2-3mm) closer to the name part in backside. I could not believe that.I called the store and they were also not agreeing it.
I visited the store next day for solution. The store manager was not available and employee asked me to come today.
Waiting for a positve response from the apple reseller.
Any other suggestions from forum to help me?
Regards,
Ramadevi

Hello Alfred,
Thanks for replying.
I will check the store today. My question, how can the "accidental damage" get into new products?
Why a buyer should incur the damage caused by some unknown?

If you just purchased the tablet, take it back to an apple store and have it replaced.

TS1424 iTunes skip the first two songs of the album I just purchased from the iTunes Store?

Why does iTunes skip the first two songs of the album I just purchased from the iTunes Store?
I previously checked that the download was complete. (Had plenty of time, but checked nonetheless it was done.) I have closed and reopened iTunes several times. Frustrated.

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

Issue deleting websites on newly purchased Ipad 4

Hey everyone,
I recently purchased an iPad 4. While browsing the web using Safari, I noticed that the Newegg website was showing as a website recently visited. It had a web address link to it.. The odd thing was, I had never visited the website from the iPad. It also had a link to a part of the website that I had viewed on my iPhone for a specific product. However, this was days before I had even turned on the iPad (wasn't sure if it somehow linked up). I have already cleared the Internet history and cookies under the settings for Safari. However, this has not worked at removing the website. Has anyone ever had this issue on a newly purchased iPad? I just find it very strange that I cannot delete the Newegg website links. I find it even stranger that it has these links to Newegg when I have never visited the website on the iPad. Any thoughts? Please let me know if any additional information is required. Part of my concern is that I could be using a used Apple iPad or that it could be hacked, even though I purchased it from Best Buy. Thanks for all your help!

It might be sharing a web history with your other Safari browsing devices (MacBook/iPhone/iPod) and if it is, you may be viewing a page that you originally pulled up on lets say your iPhone. If you did, you cannot delete a iPhone browsed page with an iPad connected to the same account. You would need to pull up the browser history on your iPhone and delete the selected pages. Not sure if this will even help, but I figured it's worth a whirl

I have DocsToGo premium installed on my iPhone4s; can I use the same app on an iPad mini or do I have to purchase another one?

It shows up in the store as a universal app, so you should be ok to go.

Is it possible to replace the back panel on an iPad Mini 2?

My girlfriend has managed to dent the back panel of her iPad Mini 2 and I was wondering if it is possible to get a panel replacement or not?

If you take it into an authorized repair place the fee will be $219.
If you take it to a non-authorized repair place it may be cheaper but doing so will void your warranty
If you have apple care plus then the replacement fee will be $49 (last I knew) under the 'two instances of accidental damage replacement)
Call your local Apple store to be sure, but last I knew they don't replace parts as much as that fee is to exchange your damaged device for a replacement, so if you do it, be sure to back up your device before you take it in

I can't access the itunes store from my ipad mini after the iOS7 update

I can't access the itunes store from my ipad mini after updating the latest iOS7. Does anyone have answers to solving this?

Ive been through various threads on here.
There has been quite a few things said and some people are having luck with.
Reset all your settings works, but only once. when you shut down and open back up same problem.
Ive tried changing how my cookies respond, this doesnt work either.

Ive noticed that when your in settings and click on something eles it takes maybe a second or two before it changes to the next screen something thats never happened on 6
it seems very laggy and slow on somethings and super fast on others
Come on Apple get yer finger out and sort this out soon, its you thats loosing my cash as I cant buy any music!!!
I have an Ipad mini.

Recently purchased iPad Mini. Could not get it to connect. Changed router's setting to Channel 6 and IPad connected. Even after 6.0.2 it will not connect to some home networks although it will to public networks e.g. McDonald's.

Recently purchased iPad Mini. Downloaded iOS 6.0.1. Could not get it to connect to Home WiFi using Linksys G Router. Have another Wifi Network in Home (CenturyLink provided it as a DSL/Router combo). Would not connect (nor would my iPhone 4s or my wife's iPhone 4) until I accessed the router's setting and changed to broadcast on Channel 6 and then IPad connected. I suspect the only reason the iPhone were still connected to the Linksys network is that they were before I "upgraded to iOS 6. Even after 6.0.2 the iPad and both iPhones will not connect to some home networks (its random) although thye will connect to public networks e.g. McDonald's, Panera, etc.

I need help verifying the details of a used ipad mini I'm about to buy. Is this possible by just providing the serial

It depends on what you mean by "verifying the details". sberman gave you the best place to look to research the technical specifications of the device you are thinking of purchasing. If, however, you're asking how to check if the device is Activation Locked, then you can check the status here: https://www.icloud.com/activationlock/

What are the benefits of buying an Ipad mini over an Ipad 2

what are the benefits of buying an Ipad mini over an Ipad 2?

As Phil said, iPad mini is smaller; for most, it fits in one hand. It also has a better camera, and can take advantage of more software features like Siri.

I downloaded the new os7 on my Ipad mini. Now in order to use the ipad I need to use a passcode. I cannot get pass the login screen and I never set up my ipad to use a passcode. What can I do?

I downloaded the new os7 on my ipad mini. Now in order to use the Ipad, I need to enter a passcode. I cannot get pass this screen. I did
not set it up to use a passcode. What can I do? I am not too computer savy.

I have the same problem. I upgraded to iOS7, entered my usual passcode when prompted in setup, and when I tried to access my iPad after installation was finished it denied my passcode. I can't connect to any internet to erase it or anything because the new iOS hasn't yet been configured to a wifi network, so I can't backup from anything either.
When I connect the iPad to iTunes, it tells me that Find My iPad must be disabled on my iPad before backup or restore can continue - and I can't access anything beyond the lock screen of my iPad at all because it refuses to accept my passcode, so I can't get to Find My iPad.
