What happens to ipad when I give it to Apple for a new one?
It seems like I'm going to have to give my defective iPad to Apple and buy a new one for a reduced price. What exactly happens to it once Apple gets it?
I have a lot of sensitive info on there and if it is able to be refurbed, I'm afraid that someone will somehow gain access to it. I also know that theoretically, Apple isn't supposed to access any of that either but I don't know that I really believe it. If I had the money, I'd just hold onto mine and buy a new one. Since I don't, I don't know if I should just live without an iPad for a while or just stop being so paranoid. Any input on what really happens to these devices once Apple gets them?
"Out of warranty replacement" means just that; Apple replaces your iPad but, since it's not covered by the factory warranty either because the warranty has expired or the iPad has been damaged, will charge for the replacement.
Any replacement, in warranty or out of warranty, will probably be a refurbished unit, but you would not be able to tell the difference between a refurbished unit and new.
As to being able to purchase AppleCare, it depends on the country you're in and whether your original iPad is still within warranty. If you're in a country where Apple offers AppleCare+, then you can only buy AppleCare within 30 days of the date of original purchase and your iPad must be undamaged. If you're in a country where Apple still offers the older AppleCare plans, then you can purchase any time within one year of the date of original purchase. Either will probably apply, though, only if your iPad has failed due to a defect, not due to user damage.
Regards.

When I Trade My Cracked iPod for a New One, Will the Information From the Cracked iPod Be Transferred to the New One?
That is done through iTunes. If everything on your cracked iPod is in your iTunes library, you just need to sync the new iPod the same way.
If there is content on the cracked iPod that is not in your iTunes library, that content will be lost, unless you transfer its content to your computer before the "trade in." Content that you purchased from the iTunes Store can be re-downloaded at no cost, using the Purchased screen in the iTunes Store. -
Hay. i change the screen LCD in IPAD 2 3G but i don't know what happen. She was working and every thing it's ok. One time i turn off the ipad and turn on more time, i don't see good in LCD the brightness is to low and i can see any thing!! and i want to know why is happen
Assuming you mean that you performed the repair yourself, it would seem that you either obtained a defective screen or you did some sort of damage when you replaced the screen. You can try asking for assistance on ifixit.com, a site dedicate to those attempting their own repairs, or you can take the iPad to a shop and pay them to try to correct the problem for you. Apple will no longer touch your iPad now that you've attempted your own repairs.

my iPad mini adapter shorted...I bought a new one but since it charges very slowly and when charged to 100% it falls to 95% immediately after being unplugged...what might be the issue????
When it does that. Replug the charger and charge to 100%. Now does is stay charged when you unplug the charger.
You may need to recalibrate your battery.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

What happens to RandomAccessFile when seek operation fails?
Hi,
I wonder what happens to RAF when the seek() op fails - does the file remain open?
I guess i should close it if fails, what is the best thing to do - protect or catch exception?
Am i wrong about it?
Thanks.I wonder what happens to RAF when the seek() op fails - does the file remain open?In the absence of evidence or documentation to the contrary that is what you should assume.
I guess i should close it if failsWhy? All it means is that that offset doesn't exist within the file. -
What happens in OBAW when a record in OLTP is updated ?
Hello,
I wonder what happens in OBAW when a record in OLTP is updated ?
I mean... I've ETLed the record a couple of days ago, and it is there in OBAW. Now for some reason the OLTP is changed...
Pls... when we do the new ETL (incremental) does that record in OBAW gets updated ?
BTW... the OLTP in reference is EBS.
Txs. for any help.
AntonioThat is where "Prune Days" in the Execution Plan Parameters comes into play. Data which has been updated in the source system since "Prune Days" ago is re-extracted.

What happens to objects when you redeclare a new object?
... and is there a more proper way of "deleting" them from memory, or is it a case of waiting until the garbage collector in java sweeps them up?
i.e.
private CustomObjectType myObject;
public final void myMethod() {
myObject = new CustomObjectType("I am the first object");
// do some temporary work with myObject
/// now I need to do more work with another temporary object, so just replace the "link"
myObject = new CustomObjectType("I am a second object");
Is it better to declare new variables to hold this second object?
Should a person declare the object to be null when no longer required?
Do I ever need to worry about this, does the garbage collector sort out references for me?
(Please go easy, still learning and don't really need to know this right now but I'm curious! :)What happens to objects when you redeclare a new object?If you go:
Dog myDog = new Dog();
and then go:
Dog myDog = new Dog();
you are replacing the first reference to Dog() with another one. I don't think it would make sense to do this because it is redundant.
But if you go:
static Dog myDog = new Dog();
and then go:
static Dog myDog = new Dog();
then then second one will be ignored because the first one already assigned Dog() to myDog.. so the second one won't replace the first one - it will just be ignored or generate an error.
is there a more proper way of "deleting" them from memory, or is it a case of waiting until the garbage collector in java sweeps them up?In c and c++ you have to think about when the life of an object ends and destroy the object to prevent a memory leak. But in Java the garbage collector takes this task on if a certain amount of memory is used. If you don't use a lot of memory the gc won't bother and the objects will be destroyed when you exit the program.
You can use:
finalize(){
// insert code to be executed before the gc cleans up
and if you call System.gc() (which you probably won't need to do) then the code in the finalize() method will run first e.g. to erase a picture from the screen before collecting the object.
private CustomObjectType myObject;public final void myMethod() {
myObject = new CustomObjectType("I am the first object");
// do some temporary work with myObject
/// now I need to do more work with another temporary object, so just replace the "link"
myObject = new CustomObjectType("I am a second object");
you could do:
public class CustomObjectType{
//this constructs an instance of the class using a string of your choice
CustomObjectType(String str) {
System.out.println(str);
static void main(String[] args){
CustomObjectType myObject = new CustomObjectType("I am the first object");// This sends the constructor the string you want it to print
CustomObjectType myObject2 = new CustomObjectType("I am the second object");// This sends the constructor the string you want it to print

I have ad Apple ID on my iPad , when I use the apple on my iPhone for the first time, I put in my Apple ID for the iPad, didn't work. Need to create a new one. Why? How can I just use my iPad ID on my iPhone?
Hi kamfong,
Went to Settings where?
If you want to use your exisiting Apple ID on your iPad, you need to:
1. Go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign out the new ID, and then sign on the old one
2. Go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and delete the iCloud account, and the sign back onto iCloud using the old ID
You still have not indindated why you are saying that using your old ID originally "didn't work". What do you mean by that? Did you get some sort of error when you tried to sign on with your exisiting Apple ID?
Cheers,

What happens of someone stole my ipod is there anyway to get another one besides buying a whole new one? Does anyone know? And why does it have to be connected to the internet for it to locate my apple devices? There should be a locating chip in it already. Better ideas here..
You'll have to buy a new one, unless it is covered in some kind of insurance that you have.

I backed up my ipad to the cloud as it had a broken screen so I swaped it out for a new one and now I cant restore because the new Ipad has IOS 6 and my back up is 6.1! This is what I get for buying an Ipad twice in a week because of a broken screen? $500 the first buy and then another $299 plus tax for the swaped out one that I can't restore with my backup data.
I assume that you will have to set up as new since it will not let you restore from the backup. Then after you set it up, you can restore from the iCloud backup. The backup should not disappear be use you are setting this device up as new. Your backup should still be in iCloud.
However, after you activate the iPd and update the software, you will have to erase the device in order to restore from the Cloud backup, that is the only way to get to the iCloud backup.
Copied from the article that linked you to this discussion ....
Resolution
Update your device to the latest version of iOS to be able to restore the backup. -

Steven ~ Welcome to the Support Communities. The following may be useful for next time...
AppleCare+ for iPad extends your coverage to two years from the original purchase date of your iPad and adds up to two incidents of accidental damage coverage, each subject to a $49 service fee. Note: AppleCare+ must be purchased within 30 days of the date you bought your new iPad.

What happens if I don't set a client id for durable subscribers?
What happens if I don't set a client id for durable subscribers?
If you do not set a clientID in 2.0, it will automatically set a clientID for
you. This means that you MUST unsubscribe the durable subscriber on the same
host (since otherwise the clientID's will be different)
In general, its good practice to set a client ID anytime you are using durables
(so that you have some control). -
