Why does apple sell phones with "INTERNATIONAL WARRANTY" when they cant service the phone in India, which has been bought outside India ? Whats the use of their registered service centers ?

i got my iphone 5 as a gift from my friend when he went on a business tour to Dubai. i have a got problem with the native camera app and i contacted the customer care more then 3-5 times and they finally gave me a solution to check with the service centers avialble in  my city. i went all the way there from my place and they said you cant service your phone over here since its has been bought outisde India ! then why do APPLE ship phones ? why do they have REGISTERED SERVICE CENTRES in India ? why do they sell apple products with the tag INTERNATIONAL WARRANTY ?

There is a problem insofar as you did not buy the phone.   Any warranty would therefore apply to the buyer.   What I would suggest is this ...
With the receipt in your hand, telephone the store where it was purchased.  Explain the situation and ask them how you should proceed.    You may find they'll only deal with your friend but if he/she is willing, it can still be pursued in your friend's name.
Once you have agreed a way of getting it serviced you will need to return the phone, and as I suggested, by a registered post system that requires proof of delivery.  Most postal services do this.
Pack the phone, preferably in its original box and surround it with extra packing. You do not want anyone to have grounds to say it was further damaged in transit.
Include a dated letter stating what the fault is and affix to that a copy of the receipt.
I hope you are successful.   Thank you for the star.

  • I cannot install apps that are upgraded to ios4.. im using iphone 2g 3.1.3 this makes me sad.. why does apple need to updates many apps when we cannot update an iphone 2g anymore..

    i cannot install apps that are upgraded to ios4. im using iphone 2g 3.1.3 this makes me sad.. why does apple need to updates many apps when we cannot update an iphone 2g anymore..

    I am having the exact same problem with trying to sync my iPad with my computer. To make a long story short, I had to reinstall Windows for my computer and therefore had to reinstall itunes.
    I have done back ups in the past for my ipod touch and other ipods with no problems, but unfortunately I have never been able to back up my iPad. During a sync, the iPad would always disconnect from my computer and it would never finish. it would say the connection was lost, but nothing is wrong with the connection.
    So now I have over 100 apps and thousands of pictures that I am afraid will be deleted if I run the sync in itunes. I have tried to transfer purchases and it goes through the list of apps, but nothing is ever transferred.
    Any help would be appreciated. I am not interested in jailbreaking my iPad to solve this problem. There should be a fix for this and I want to upgrade to ios 4.3 as the original poster. Please help

  • I have a new MacBook Pro with OS10.8.2 and cannot get Contacts to print a list of addresses with pictures showing.  There is a check box selecting "picture" which has been checked - but no picture.  This worked fine on OS10.7.5.  Problem??

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.

  • Why does Apple sell same config that was available 15-16 months ago

    All:
    I was considering buying a Mac Pro, but was suprised to see that most of the reviews from the initial release (summer of 06) cover a configuration identical to what Apple is still selling today.
    Why doesn't apple improve the specs over time - as newer technology comes available at a cheaper price? Most PC manufacturers improve the video card, processor speed and hard drive size over time - and charge the same price.
    Apple appears to be offering a 16 month old configuration for the same price they charged 16 months ago - but they have not changed the original configuration (other than offering an 8-core option).
    Am I missing something (I might be - and this is why I'm asking)? Why should I spend $2500+ to get something that I could have purchased 16 months ago for the same price.

    No small feat, and a huge appetite from their customers, hoping for mobile, desktop and server chips. 45nm Penryn will be first step, followed by further advances down the road.
    I feel lucky to be able to use Mac Pro for the last 16 months, and not wait for something, and while there are definitely improvements, most people are probably happy with the current configuration - outside of perhaps the limited "mid-range" graphics offering from ATI.

  • Does apple care come with a Mac when you order from education site?

    On the nus extra website when I ordered my MacBook pro this morning it says it comes with extended warranty of 3 years.
    Is this correct?

    What is a nus extra website? And normally the 3 year AppleCare is an extra cost add-on to the one year included warranty.

  • Why Does Apple Tempt Us With "Apply to Enclosed Items?"

    Unfortunately—like too many others—I find myself in a grand mess because I innocently selected "Apply to Enclosing Folders" while on the system hard drive.
    I had been trying to resolve an issue where I was unable to write files to the drive. I selected the icon of the hard drive, went into Permissions and there it was—the solution (or so I thought) hanging there like a ripe peach on a tree within easy reach. I made sure my name and "Read & Write" was selected then checked the "Apply to Enclosed Items."
    This has resulted in DISASTER and I have spent the past 24 hours trying (no success so far!!) to fix the mess.
    Judging from the number of entries I've seen in this forum as I try to find a solution to my problem, I am shocked that Apple would provide this option in the Permissions area WITHOUT A WARNING of how seemingly innocent act may instead have unexpected, time-consuming and COSTLY results!!!
    What is UP with that???

  • Why does my screen saver say "no photos" when they are definately there?

    I just downloaded the latest OS update and my screen saver no longer works.  When i go into system preferences and set up the folder to use for the picture slide show--it gives me an error that there are "no photos". But I have triple-checked and the photos are in fact there.  Why doesnt screen saver see them??

    UPDATE:  I spoke with Apple and there is NO fix.  I've set up my photos in a hierarchy as follows
    Pictures FolderSlide Show Pictures Folder
    Sub folder jpegs
    Sub folder with jpegs
    sub-folder with jpegs
    Everytime i have a new batch of photos worthy of the slide show--i add a new sub-folder.  This worked perfectly fine with the old OS but does not work with Mountain Lion.  According to the Apple support tech i spoke with, Mountain Lion does not support going into that level of sub-folder.  Essentially it is seeing the "Slide Show Pictures folder" but all it sees are the next level of sub-fodlers themselves--it cant go into the next level to see the actual photos.  Sounds pretty stupid if you ask me

  • Why does my Ipad say headphones are connected when they are not?

    I do not have sound on my iPad1. When I try to turn up the volum it indicates headphones are connected, but they are not. When I do use headphones they do work. I have rebooted the iPad, reset and restored the iPad and the issue still exists. Is this a straight hardware problem?

    iPad has a mechanical switch inside the jack so it knows when the headphones are plugged in.
    It may be stuck.
    Inspect it to see if something is in there, such as toe jam.
    Blow the port out with compressed air.
    Try inserting and removing a headphone plug several times.

  • When using the record function for narration in Keynote 09 version 5.1.1., the recording continually gets off sync with the slides even if nothing has been altered on any of the slides.

    I am trying to record narration for my slideshow in Keynote 09 version 5.1.1. I put the transitions on automatic and hit the record button, then read the slides as they advanced. The program allows me to record my voice, however, when I play the slideshow back the recording continually becomes more off sync with the slides with each play. Is there a way to fix this?

     Hi,
    One of my ex-colleagues has installed a NI-DAQ 6.5 in our system. [And I do not see any other naitional instruments card in the CPU of the computer, may be he removed it] I deleted the account and all his files in the system. When I am trying to install version8.0, its not getting installed and giving me a message that I should uninstall the previous version by going to Add/Remove programs in the control panel.
    I tried doing that, but the "Change/Remove" button does not seem to work...[There is no response and so unable to install the new version...]
    Any idea how can this problem be solved?
    It is a windowsXP operating system with SP2 installed on a machine with P4 processor.
    Thanks

  • HT3887 why does my iPhone say device not supported when connecting to my make even after it has successfully paired?

    why does my iphone say device not supported when connecting to my mac pro, even though it has already succesfuly paired? I also use a wirless bluetooth keyboard and mouse on the computer successfully.
    Also when I turn Bluetooth on on the phone the devices cog never stops turning (forever serching for a device)

    iTunes automatically syncs voice memos to your iTunes library when you connect iPhone to your computer.
    It couldn't be much easier than that as you don't actually have to do anything more than normal.
    This lets you listen to voice memos on your computer and provides a backup if you delete them from iPhone.
    Voice memos are synced to the Voice Memos playlist. iTunes creates the playlist if it doesn’t exist. When you sync voice memos to iTunes, they remain in the Voice Memos application until you delete them. If you delete a voice memo on iPhone, it isn’t deleted from the Voice Memos playlist in iTunes. However, if you delete a voice memo from iTunes, it is deleted from iPhone the next time you sync with iTunes.
    USB syncing is far faster than Bluetooth.
