What is the warranty on an iPad Smart Cover purchased in India?

I purchased a smart cover along with the new iPad in India from an Apple Authorized reseller. I was wondering what is the warranty offered for genuine Apple accessories purchased from an Apple Authorized reseller in India, in particular the Smart Cover. There should be a simple "Yes or No" answer to this question.
According to Apple, they offer a one year warranty for all Apple accessories. http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/products/accessory-english.html
And yet, I was denied warranty coverage by the AASP and Service Center stating that Smart Covers are not covered under this warranty.
To extend the question:
1) Is the Apple Smart Cover NOT an Apple Accessory?
2) If it is an Apple Accessory, then is it not subject to the same warranties granted for all Apple Accessories?
3) If there is an undisputed understanding that a smart cover is flawed, should the smart cover be replaced within one year?

King is nearly absolutely right. When you restore your iPhone in iTunes (Restore iPhone), new software is downloaded and installed on your iPad. However, if you "Erase All Content and Settings," this simply does what it says. It removes whatever you have on your iPad and wipes it allowing you to start fresh.
It's important to note that this does not install new software on your iPad. If you are having trouble with your iPad and are attempting to restore to troubleshoot or resolve an issue, it's always best to restore from iTunes for new software.

In regards to your device not being recognized by iTunes, King hit the money. The article he linked will absolutely resolve that issue providing the issue isn't with your computer's hardware or software and isn't related to Apple's products in any way.

  • IPad (4th Gen) What is a good case that goes with the "iPad Smart Cover"?

    Hi,
    I'm currently looking for a case that covers the aluminum back that also goes with the iPad Smart Cover. Thanks!

    I've bought a ton of back covers. It's been hard trying to find the right one. I've settled on two really good ones though:
    Caudabe Shell: This one's my daily driver, so to speak. I've got the frost version and it looks really good and has held up really well. Price is very reasonable too.
    Switcheasy Cover Buddy: I like this one as well. Only thing is that they don't seem to have a frost version. They just have opaque colors, which I'm not a huge fan of. This is also a little bit more expensive than the Caudabe cover.

  • What is the disadvantage of refurbished ipad and if i buy one does it include  iOS 5 and iCloud or not

    hallo guys
    anybody can help me
    my  question is what is the disadvantage of refurbished ipad and if i buy one does it include  iOS 5 and iCloud or not
    thanks in advance to answer me
    Best regards

    The warranty on an iPad, even a refurbished one, will still be valid in Egypt. It's only the iPhone that does not have an international warranty. Just make sure you don't buy a Verizon-model iPad, which cannot be serviced anywhere but in the US (and won't work with any other cell carrier either).
    Note that refurbished iPads are available only via the online Apple Store, and they accept only US credit cards and will only ship to US addresses. This may not be a problem for you, but I wanted to make sure you were aware.
    Regards.

  • What is the warranty on a refurbished ipod touch

    What is the warranty on a refurbished ipod touch?

    Guaranteed Apple quality.
    Before we put a refurbished Mac, iPod, iPad, or Apple TV up for sale in Special Deals, it undergoes a rigorous refurbishment process to make sure it’s up to Apple’s tough quality standards. We back it with our standard one-year limited warranty. And you have the option of purchasing an AppleCare Protection Plan for it.

    thanks

    Probably not.  But they may help you and give you some service for a reduced rate depending on what is wrong with your iPad.  For example if you cracked the screen they may sell you a refurbished one for a reduced price.

  • What is the warranty for a refurbished iPhone sold by AT&T?

    Considering purchasing a refurbished iPhone from AT&T. Curiously, I noticed refurbished iPhones are not sold online at the Apple Store...
    I'd like to know the official answer for this question, from an Apple representative, or at least referencing a legal document on the Apple site:
    "What is the warranty for a refurbished iPhone?"
    Also, "Can AppleCare be purchased for a refurbished iPhone?"
    Again, I would like Apple's answers to these questions, not AT&T's.
    Thanks.

    But if the phone is refurbished by Apple, shouldn't it have the same warranty as new, as do refurbished iPods, iPads, and Macbooks?
             Apple Certified Refurbished       
                    Fast, free shipping on all refurbished products.             
               We test and certify all Apple refurbished products and include a 1-year warranty."

  • What is the data usage for ipad mini on stand by when connected to WIFI?

  • What is the difference between Apple Ipad Air Model

    What is the difference between Apple Ipad Air Model # MD788LL/A and Model # MD788LL/B

    These models both use the same i7-3820QM processor, so difference(if any) is probably not in CPU(only stepping can be different, but intel site shows only E1). GPU is also the same(again, 'revision' or something may be different). doesn't seem that RAM is different either, it's 1600 DDR3L(only timings and power consumption can differ, but it's unlikely). SSD - cannot say anything from specs. Screen[manufacturer]? Googling shows nothing for me. And only visible difference(apart from model number) for me is price. As I'm considering purchase, I don't want to spend more money to get different number.

  • What is the oldest generation of iPad that will still allow me to run IOS8 and allow for future IOS updates?

    Buying a used iPad... what is the oldest generation of iPad that will still allow me to run IOS8 and allow for future IOS updates?
    Thanks

    An iPad 2 will do it...for awhile. Realize that it's seemingly on it's last legs as far as iOS updates go and performance will not be great enough for today's demanding games. Also realize that a big part of running apps smoothly is how much system RAM (the memory area that the apps actually run in) the device has. The iPad 2 has 512 MB which is adequate for most apps but not for some. The iPads above the iPad 2 all have 1 GB of system RAM and the iPad Air 2 has 2 GB.
    The time will come when the iPad 2 can no longer be updated past a certain iOS version (as the iPad 1 is) so it will be more difficult to keep up with apps that you want to be using. This will eventually happen to ALL devices so you'll have to judge if you want to be at the tail-end of iOS updates or at least have a bigger buffer with a newer iPad.

    URGENT need

    I'm not sure what you're asking. If you're asking us to tell you the IMEI for your particular iPad, that's impossible. None of us, your fellow users, will have any access to such information. If you're asking how to find the IMEI for your iPad, that would be labeled as such on the box, or found by these additional possibilities:

    What is the procedure for storing iPads over the summer

    Lock them up in a cart. Power off completely. If you don't have enough iPad carts any secure area will do - see environmental requirements below.  You will just have to recharge each one next fall as they will not retain enough power to turn back on.
    Operating temperature: 32° to 95° F (0° to 35° C)
    Nonoperating temperature: -4° to 113° F (-20° to 45° C)
    Relative humidity: 5% to 95% noncondensing
    Maximum operating altitude: 10,000 feet (3000 m)

    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
