What to do if you dont have an apple store near you for repairs.

Just curious as to what apple will do if you dont have an apple store near you and you have a defective device. My nearest apple store is 300 miles each way and after reading about some of the defects people have been seeing such as screens being scratched easily, loose screens, software problems etc.
Verizon is backordered so im sure they wouldnt be of any help.
So whats apples procedures for people not near an apple store to make an appointment.

If you contact Apple Support, they can also ship you a replacement, if your device is eligible for service or Out-of Warranty repair.
Check this article about it: Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
Choosing a service option
You can request repair service from your carrier (except AT&T and Virgin Mobile), directly from Apple, or from a local Apple Authorized Service Provider. If you get service through Apple, you can mail us your iPhone or make an appointment with a Genius at an Apple Retail Store.
About repair service
When you send your iPhone to Apple, we’ll examine it to confirm it’s eligible for the service you requested. If your iPhone is eligible, we’ll either repair your iPhone or replace it. The replacement will be new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability. If we determine that your iPhone is eligible for a different service than the one you requested, we’ll contact you with more information.
Out-of-warranty service
If your iPhone or the required service isn’t covered by Apple’s One Year Limited Warranty, AppleCare+, or AppleCare Protection Plan, you may still be able to get out-of-warranty service. For example, an iPhone damaged by liquids may be eligible for out-of-warranty service. Apple reserves the right to determine whether your device is eligible. See Apple’s Repair Terms and Conditions for complete details.

Before you send your iPhone for service, back it up!
Your content is important, and you’ll need the backup to restore your iPhone after service. Apple will delete the content on your iPhone during the service process, regardless of whether you bring it to your carrier, take it to an Apple Retail Store, or mail it in.

    can you download songs from itunes match from the cloud to your iPhone ie for times when you dont have internet connection?

    Unless you have an Internet connection you cannot access iCloud. You can download your music from iCloud to store permanently on your iPhone, but only when you have an Internet connection to do so.

  • HT5191 the itunes library .itl fileis locked on a locked disk, or you dont have the write permission for this file.  this is what it says every time i try and open itunes why ?

    the itunes library .itl fileis locked on a locked disk, or you dont have the write permission for this file.  this is what it says every time i try and open itunes why ?

    Sounds like a permission issue.
    Navigate to the iTunes Music Library.itl file
    The path should be Username/Music/iTunes/
    Right click on the iTunes Library.itl and select Get Info
    The window will open on the left hand side. Go to the Sharing and Permissions section at the bottom
    Click the padlock to allow changes and enter your Mac logon password
    Select yourself and make sure you have Read & Write selected. Click padlock to lock it again
    Close the Get Info window and try and start iTunes

  • The operation cant be completed because you dont have permission to access some of the items

    First of all sorry if my gammar isnt the best, as I suffer for Dylexia and spell and gammar check isnt that good yet!
    Has anyone ran into the same issue when copying files to a network share or removable drive where you have full access over and you get a good old error message
    "operation cant be completed because you dont have permission to access some of the items" or and apple random number code that you need to good (so much for a good gui with having to google for the number codes!)
    It really annoyes me as no matter what operating system you use it never outputs a reports to inform what "items" it has issues with and there locations so you can copy them manually.
    its not too bad when its a few items but when it is 50 or so items in several folders you are copying and the os decedes it doesnt like you and makes up an poor error message such as the one above I really want to throw it out the window...
    I have check for premissions on the destination and all are ok .
    i have also check and none of the files are locked or read only.
    I am sure I am not the only one who want the OS to explain what file and its location caused the issue.
    Does anyone know the fix or uses tools that bypass the os annoying errors.
    As the folder I have been trying to copy has only copied 348 of the 1591 files across.
    Thanks for the help!

  • HT2731 i used debit card for purchasing i dont have credit card now its showing your payment method is decline use another payment method what shoul i do i dont have credit card

    i used debit card for purchasing i dont have credit card now its showing your payment method is decline use another payment method what should i do i dont have credit card or any another account

    I don't think that debit cards are still accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts recently about them being declined. You could try contacting iTunes support and see if they can help, but I don't think you will be able to use a debit card : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    Are iTunes gift cards available in your country ? They are not available in all, and they are country-specific (they can only be used in their country of issue), but if there you could possibly use them as your payment method.

    I'm not sure what you're asking.  Are you writing a program that results in the error when you test it?  (This is the developer forum).

  • Operation could not be completed because you dont have access to some files

    Hi guys,
    Recently since an update not long ago ever since i have been trying to copy stuff into my NAS (Thecus N5200) it comes up with a problem saying
    "Operation could not be completed because you do not have access to some files"
    I have read some places who say that this is due to some permission errors or some of the files get locked somehow and means you cant copy it properly however i have checked these files and it is not the case. I have looked online and even called up Apple to see what they could tell me but even they said that they havent had any calls regarding this problem before. The person from Apple suggested i try doing a Disk Permissions repair and for a while it works...but 5 minutes later it happens again.
    What can i do to fix it? I will be extremely unhappy if i have to keep doing this every time i copy something. Sometimes Repair Disk Permissions wont change a **** thing. This is ******** because its never happened before and only started recently

    sorry for the long correspondance. I sort of "forgot" about this thread and was using usb to transfer files (which is quite annoying).
    AFP is enabled which means i believe it is connecting to the server through AFP. The funny thing is that it copies pretty much all the way to the end and then says "operation could not be completed because you dont have access to some files" . Im not sure what it has to do with disk permissions but sometimes it helps and sometimes it doesnt.
    Thanks for the link Barney, looks like im not the only one suffering from these issues. I was connecting via smb://server before, i just tried mounting it via afp://xxx.xxx.x.xx . i will see how it goes but some people say its slower? for documents i dont mind but i hope apple comes up with a solution. i dont want to be copying large tv show files to the server at anything less than what i was getting before
    edit: i just looked at the logs of previous connections with servers on the mac and i found there was a difference between how i mounted this server recently and it a while back. recently i had been trying to connect using smb://n5200 and in the past before snowleopard it had been smb://N5200. I tried once again to connect using smb://N5200 and it works flawlessly (for the moment). im going to keep trying to copy different files to see if its "fixed". perhaps the introduction of snowleopard made the OS more picky about capitals.
    i shall keep you informed
