Warranty void stick

Hi,
I just purchased my creative zen touch a matter of hours ago. it has finished its first charge and i have gotten a few songs uploaded. However, i recently discovered that the warranty void sticker on the bottom of the device is now half covering the front and back sections. It is on the back cover only but there are symbols etched into it.
The packaging was fine. it was sealed and brand new.
Could someone shed some light on my confusion?
Thanks

Sounds like a question only Creative Support can answer, and there's no guarantee you'll get an answer from them here (as per the disclaimer at the top of the forum).

  • Warranty void due to multiple dents on edges?

    currently my ipad display distorted as it still have 6 months warranty so i send in for repair.
    but they said can't repair only replacement.
    Now they said can't replace it as it has many dents on edges so warranty voided.
    that not fair i just bought it for 6 month and the dents were already there for since first month i bought.
    so the distortion wasn't caused by the dents.
    Does anyone encounter such problem?

    Some not insignificant physical trauma caused those dents, and Apple cannot just take your word that the dents didn't cause your problem.  Especially since the duration of time between the denting and the problem doesn't mean a darn thing.  I once dropped a MacBook Pro on the floor and, despite a big dent, it worked fine...  For a month, then the logic board finally failed.  Following physical trauma, problems can crop up at a later date, they don't have to occur right away.

  • Warranty void on Apple engraved products?

    Can anyone help me? I'm thinking about buying a 3rd Gen Nano from the online Apple store for my daughter for Christmas and getting it engraved, but I've been informed recently that if I have it engraved it will void the warranty, is this correct?
    I have also read the limited warranty and nowhere does it say anything about deeming the warranty void if the iPod is engraved by them.
    Any advice welcome, thanks.

    Engraving it does NOT void the warranty. (I presume you're talking about the engraving service that Apple offers? I don't know what would happen if you, say, had it engraved by a jeweler or did it yourself.)
    What you can't do, if you order it engraved, is return it. So, if you're daughter doesn't like it, you're stuck with it. Unengraved, it could be returned within the standard return period (don't remember what that is. 14 days?).

  • Will installing a new operating system make the warranty void

    I just bought a HP G3 200 Series 250 Core i3 from Indian online store. The current operating system is free DOS and i want to install windows 8 on it. Will that make my warranty void ?

    Hi: Doing that will not void the hardware warranty but HP will not offer any software support if you install another operating system. Bear in mind that there are no W8 64 bit drivers for that model, so I suggest you upgrade to W8.1 after you install W8 or install W7 64 bit.

  • Macbook Pro Glass replaced by 3rd party - warranty voided?

    Hi, when i purchased my macbook pro (feburary 2011 model), after some months, i accidently cracked the glass infront of the screen.
    As we all know, apple charges a ridiculous amount to get it replaced as from my understanding they replace the entire lid.
    I also purchased the apple car protection plan when i bought the laptop.
    I had the glass replaced by a professional store that specializes in this for aobut $150.
    They just replaced the glass which was the only problem.
    Is my applecare protection package and inital 1 year warranty voided?
    Are there any markers the appl employees can tell that it has been replaced?
    Thanks in advanced!

    It wasn't replaced by an authorized apple service center.
    Just by a repair shop.
    The call support center is closed at the moment.
    It would be very unfir if the $400 odd it costs for the protection plan to be voided only a year after the purchase making it completely a waste as it adds an extra 2 years after the first year.
    So, do you think it would be voided since it wasn't done by an auth apple center?
    The status of its warranty online says it is all in tact obviously, but if i brought it into the apple store if a problem
    arised, and they open it up for repair or whatever, if nothing was damaged when the screen got replaced, is there anyway they could tell it was replaced?

    - Contact your seller about the warranty.
    - Contact your local MSI call center to know about the warranty:

    Not every seller can allow you to remove the bottom cover.

  • Warranty void

    I bought a zen v only two months ago and its already kicked the bucket and wont turn on or respond at all. I had since thrown out the box it came in. when i brought it back to the shop i bought it in with the receipt they told me they couldn't take it back because i didnt have the original packaging. I have everything that wasb included in the pack when i bought it except for the box itself. Could my warranty really be voidIt seems a little harsh to say the least

    You could contact Customer Support directly instead. If the player is faulty, they can arrange a replacement or repair for you. The contact details are in the Support folder of the installation CD, or you can e-mail them through the links at the top of the page ( Contact Us -> Customer Support ).

  • Warranty void due to upgrade from WIndow 7 Home Prem to Window 7 Pro

    Did somebody every heard of such a thing??? or had it been done to them?
    I just called about a Hard Drive going out and the tech state that i voided my warranty by ugrading to Windows 7 
    Professions from Windows 7 Home Premien
    that came as a surprise and a BIG **bleep**????
    Why then lenovo sells windows or even do business with Microsoft!!!!!!

    I can imagine, that might give Microsoft reason to have a puzzled frown at Lenovo ... thats sort of restricting their sales now that you have brought that up here.

  • Warranty Void plus extras

    Hello every one, I need some answers regarding as to exactly what voids the warranty? I have Macbook pro retina display thats still under warranty but I got a dent from trying to plug in my hdmi cable. No joke, so I would assume this falls under faulty product more than accidental damage? Now my main concern is that my brother tried to open my mac and lost a few screws, does this mean my warranty is still intact? Nothing about the mac has really changed at all.
    Lastly I have like 3 dead pixels, they're not so bad but should I just try to get them replaced anyway? Thank you for your time.

    you'll have to do a lot of explaining to Apple as to why the screws are gone - Apple considers the Retina Macbook Pro and Macbook Air as a sealed unit which is not upgradeable - once you open the back - the warranty is out the window - unless you can convince them that the screws fell off by themselves.
    dents usually doesn't void the warranty - have a dent in my Macbook Pro that's under warranty - had issues with my Macbook Pro (not caused by the dent) and was repaired.
    the best thing to do is to take it to Apple to get a definite answer to your question.
    good luck - hope you get it sorted out.

  • Warranty void as installed new HDD, but I still have the orginal?

    Hello,
    I have recently installed a new 200GB Hitachi HDD 7200rpm on my laptop, I know this will void my warranty, but as I still have the original HDD safe and sound, will the warranty still stand if say... the technicians were to come round to fix my laptop because of an unrelated issue, but see that the HDD was upgraded; will they still fix the laptop anyway after I show them the original? It's a long shot I know, but the 40GB HDD that came with the laptop only leaves me little room after installing Vista.
    Has my upgrade TOTALLY nullified my claims to the warranty? Even if I just say... switch back and install the original HDD in my system just before the technicians come to my house? But wouldn't that be the same as if say...I just show the technician the original HDD upon their arrival while having the upgraded HDD inside the laptop.
    A bit confusing I know, but I am in a dilemma, because the Toshiba guys are set come round my place to look at my laptop under the warranty, and I'm concerned that they will not fix my laptop because I upgraded to a better and faster HD.
    Thank you, I hope someone replies.

    Hi Mohin
    I would try to clarify your question.
    The warranty will be canceled only, if you will disassemble the notebook.
    I presume the notebook was equipped with an HDD slot at the bottom of the unit and you need to remove only one screw to remove the little HDD slot cover. Am I right?
    So in such case the upgrade of parts like memory or the HDD will not avoid the warranty.
    But its a good idea to keep the old HDD which were delivered together with the notebook.
    Best regards

  • Warranty void after repair ?

    Dear other iPhone users,
    Two weeks after taking possession of my iPhone 6 it fell out of my breast pocket flat on the ground, the screen shattered. I blamed myself, and went - here in Kenya where I live and bought the iPhone - to the Apple service repair centre at Elite Digital.
    As they had offered a free insurance on the phone I 'only' had to fork out around 110 USD to repair the screen.
    A week later I notice that the repair wasn't carried out correctly, the screen was loose and came out on the top, allowing water and dust ingress.
    Back to the service centre where it came back 24 hours later apparently repaired.
    The iOS 8.1.3. came out and during the update there was an error message (error 53 - very revealing !). I again had to get in touch with the staff at Elite Digital who let me know that this was a hardware issue and I had to send the phone over.
    A day later I got the message indicating that as the phone had been broken the warranty was void and that therefore they wouldn't replace the phone free of charge, but that the above-mentioned insurance would cover but that I had to fork out AGAIN 110 USD.
    Now, as the repair was done at an authorised repair centre I expect the warranty not void. It's not because the screen was broken, badly repaired, repaired again, that the warranty of the phone isn't valid anymore - at least, that is my understanding of things.
    Thanks for your feedback and view of this message. The supplier is dragging its feet and unwilling to replace the phone which, according to him, indeed has a hardware problem but now seems to say that this is my fault.
    Thanks for your feedback,
    Cedric

    This is a user-to-user technical support forum. I don't see that there's anything that fellow users could do here. If you want to take the matter up with Apple, use the Contact Us link at the bottom right of every page for information on how to do that.
    Best of luck.

  • Warranty Void query(High Impotence) AND DISK USAGE 100% NEED HELP!!!

    I Have an HP Dv6 pavillion 7011tx. after i upgraded this laptop to windows 8, i observed that the disk usage (in task manager) always shows 100% activity..had an Clean boot, tried all the disk checks and management things . rebooted th pc again with windows 8 but still the problem continues..
    i dont think there is any solution to this problem as i have seen many many more other posts similar to this problem

    Which has made my pc very very slow The insyde h20 bios sucks! 
    Bios utlilty doesnt has the option even to change it. Is there any solution to this problem?
    PC Configuration:
    I5 3rd gen intel processor
    6GB Ram
    600GB HDD

    DOES MY WARRANTY GETS VOID IF I OPEN THE LAPTOP BACK FOR THIS ?
    REPLY ASAP (URGENT)

    Hi,
    Disk Usage 100% does not mean disk full but there is task which is doing a lot of i/o during that time (probably swap/page file). If nothing using i/o, the number should be down to 0% as shown:
    Now, I start a download, you can see both disk usage and Networks activities:
    In your case, the utility may do a lot of i/o to the swap/page file. My suggestion: stop it or BUYING MORE RAM.
    Hope this helps.

  • Help! Warranty void, I don't know what to do!?!?!

    So after a long time of dealing with issuses with my Macbook Pro, I finally decided enough was enough and to send it in for repairs under warranty. Problems with it were as follows:
    Heat:
    At 100 percent CPU useage for both cores my computer was reaching up to 204F (or around 100C) in temperature. It was getting so hot I burned my hand on it.
    Battery:
    Throughout the time that I have owned the computer, which was since march of this year, the battery capacity has deminished greatly. I use a program called coconut battery to monitor this. I also used my own personal observation, where by this point I was only getting an hour battery life after a full charge. I only have about 45 load cycles on the battery.
    Other:
    There were also issues like the screen being slightly warped, where the right corner was not completely lining up with the left, and the chrome on the button on the front of the computer having mostly warn off...but I told them if they atleast got the heat and battery fixed I'd be happy. The representative who I talked to definately seemed to agree with me that the issues I was having would be covered under the warranty.
    So, I sent the computer in and as of today I got a call saying that there was liquid spill damage, and that the warranty was void. If I wanted it repaired they would have to replace the logic board, the superdrive, the battery, and some other things I can't remember for a grand total of 1200 dollars. Here I am, a poor college student that has been an avid mac user for most of my life, telling people how great macs are and convincing people to buy them but only having a little 500mhz ibook on loan from my parents, and only by pure luck had some family members help me out to buy this computer for school. Then to hear that nothing is covered and that I am supposed to come up with 1200 dollars SOMEHOW, just because some liquid got on the computer.
    This so called liquid damage that they are reffering to probably occured when I was working and had my computer on the desk...someone must have been drinking a coke cause when I came back there was a coke can on its side, but not exactly very close to the computer, and the liquid had seeped underneath the machine. When I picked the mac up there was liquid on the bottom of it, but only because those little useless rubber standoffs they put on the bottom of these Macbook Pro's was not high enough to be above the thickness of a water based liquid as it runs across a desk. At that point I promptly had unplugged the battery from my computer and the power cable and dried it all off. From that day no NEW problems had surfaced, the battery and heat issue had already existed.I didn't expect that any should because the liquid had only reached the bottom side of the computer and it was shut off quickly.
    I know of a guy who had an ibook, and he spilled a whole can of coke while he was driving into the keboard while it was on. When the computer then shut itself off because it just couldn't operate with so much soda in its guts, the guy then tried to turn it back on!! No response of course, but that night we took it completely appart, dried out every component and put it back together. The thing booted up perfectly. So it makes me VERY mad when they tell me everything wrong with my mac is due to a liquid spilling on it!
    Is there anything I can do? Any legal recourse I can take to get this resolved? Anyone who knows anything about this please let me know. Thanks!

    Where was your desk?
    I think you should find the drinker/spiller of the coke.
    Getting electronics wet usually kils them, they aren't made water proof or even resistant.
    Logic board+super drive+batery=$1200 probably not far off.
    Some one owes you 1200 cokes and IMHO it is not Apple.

  • Macbook Pro Warranty Void and Beeping 3 times/freezing

    Hey guys,
    I have a Macbook Pro and it recnetly started beeping three times intermittenly when I started it up and freexzing at the same time.
    Sometimes it would work and then after a while of use it would freeze and beep but in the end it became more frequent and the laptop wasn't able to be used on a consistent basis.
    I found that if I kept it still it would work for longer.
    I have read that three beeps generally refers to a ram issue. I'm not too great with computeres so I wouldn't know if that was the reason why my laptop was doing it or not.
    Anyway, I knew that I still had the basic one year warranty on it that comes with purchase so I rang apple and they told me to take it to a store called 'Next Byte'. So I did and after about 2 weeks I got a phone call today telling me that to fix it it is going to cost me $1800. In between his actual laughter at me he told me that logic board needs replacing. Yes, you read that right, he was actually laughing at me, like he thought it was funny. He also wen't on to tell me that I may as well just buy a new one. Well excuse me, and who are you?
    Apparently there is visiable cosmetic damage. I know that this voids the apple warranty but I just think it is unfair.
    Is there anyway that apple can prove that I caused the damage? I am not going to say that it is 100% conditon, I'm sure there are some bumps and scratches on it, but I truly don't think I have caused this issue. Is there anyway I can talk to someoene at apple who might be able to see if this was my doing?
    And you know what else confused me, he told me the price to fix both the cosmetic damage and the hardware damage. But when I ask him how much it would be just to fix the hardward damgage he gave me a quote of $1100, so if he can tell me that he can just fix the hardware damadge that must me that the present so called "dents" on the laptop won't effect the new logic board, so how can they possibly be sure reason as to what has caused the issue with my laptop now? This is really frustraiting and I can't believe that I haven't even had my laptop a year and I have to pay the price of a whole other laptop to fix it.
    Please help!

    Take it to Apple and ask them. They are the only ones that can tell you.
    Three beeps usually indicates bad RAM.

  • Protection Plan warranty voided?....

    If I get an "apple genius" to install a larger HD (for instance, maybe a 160GB..), would that void my protection plan?.......
    Also, is it possible to install a video card into my MB?...
    Last, does the 3 yr protection plan period start when I place the order, or when I actually receive the MB..?.
    THank you!~~

    It won't void your warranty if you have a Apple Genius do it or even if you do it yourself. It's considered a user replaceable item. It's perfectly acceptable to do it yourself. Of course if you damage something while doing it then that's another matter but short of some errant static charge there's not much you could do while doing it yourself. Simple as pie.
    They even give you a PDF Manual to do it. Of course they don't include taking the four screws out of the bracket of the old drive and putting the bracket on the new one.
    As for your video card? No you're stuck with what you got.
    Have no idea on when it starts. I would assume if it took more than a week to receive one I'd be contacting someone and asking for sure but in most cases it's not going to matter within a couple of days over the course of three years.
