Will apple repair my ipod classic 80g with video?

I got my ipod classic 80g in 2006. I used it for a couple years and was very satisfied. It was in a backpack that was tossed carelessly, and then stopped working. The screen does not display anything except for some black lines. The physical casing is not broken however. When I plug it into a computer, I can hear the harddrive spinning, but itunes won't recognize it, and it won't show up as a device on my computer. I have waited so long to inquire about a repair because I have replaced it a couple of times with other ipods. I would really like to have this one repaired as I don't have an ipod curretently. And, instead of buying a new ipod classic, I would like to have this one repaired. I read that it would cost $129 to repair this ipod.
I would like to know however, if I spend $129 will apple repair my ipod for sure? If it is deemed unrepairable, will I get a replacement? Or will they refund my money?
Thanks for reading and giving your time.

Apple doesn't actually repair iPod, but does an out of warranty exchange of it for a refurbished model of the same generation and capacity.
And it will cost $129 according to this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&viewlocale=en_US&geo=United_St ates&product=ipod&select=REPAIR_PRICING

Will Apple exchange my iPod touch 4g with a new one if my current one is deffective

Ok so, I got my iPod touch 4g (white) on June 19th after i made a bet with my moms boyfriend to not drink pop for a year
So when I opened the iPod, it wouldnt connect to wi-fi. Guys, dont ask me to reset network settings or anything, because..
IVE TRIED E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G, but nothing has worked. So I called Apple and the guy on the phone said to go and make
an appointment at the Genius Bar, so i did, for 1:30pm today.
So my question is: Since the guy told me it's probably a deffective product, will Apple exchange my current iPod
for a new one? (my current one has no scratches, still has the headphones & charger, with the manuals, the box, stickers & everything)
Thank youu

what do you mean by a refurbished one?
Like a used one?? But what if i return the whole packaging (i kept the manuals & stuff, like everything )
Could the person at the Genius Bar then give me a new one if I return the whole packaging ?
Lol sorry for all the questions, I'm just really worried :/

Will Apple repair an ipod? sound does not work with headphones.

I had this iPod for only a few months. I plugged in my headphones one day and only heard a crackling sound. Is this repairable? I have not damaged it or dropped it since owning the device.

- Have you tried other headphones?
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
If the iPod (or the Apple provided headphones) are defective and not abused, Apple will exchange it at no cost.

Will Apple repair my cracked ipod screen?

I have an ipod touch 4th gen and recently dropped it and now there is a huge crack on the front:(
Before this happened the front camera had stopped working anyway
I didn't get the apple care when i bought it but will Apple repair my ipod (at a price or for free)?
Help!!!

They won't exactly repair it but there is a scheme where you trade an iPod with a broken screen plus some money for a refurbished, working iPod of the same memory capacity
Not 100% sure how it will work with the broken camera though

Can I charge an iPod Classic 3G with the Apple USB power adapter?

I have just buy an iPod Classic 3G with 15 GB (SN JQ4239GQQQF) from ebay.
I have read that it's posible to sync it with my PC with Windows 7, but, It is not possible
to charge it by usb.
I could charge it with the Apple USB power adapter?
Thanks

With that particular model, only the Firewire cable and connection will provide power to the device. The USB cable is only for syncing.
Using the iPod Dock Connector to FireWire and USB 2.0 Cable
Here is the cable you'll need.

Will my ipod classic work with windows 8

I am finally updating my Windows XP desktop to a Windows 8 laptop. Will my ipod classic work with Windows 8? I've seen a ton of problems from other users with regard to compatibility.

Do yourself a big favor. Switch to Windows 7. (Or buy a Mac.)

How do I make my iPod classic work with iTunes 9.1

How do I make my iPod classic work with iTunes 9.1?

You are correct in some of your assertions, Limnos but, if I were to follow Apple's wishes, I would have to purchase the latest and greatest Apple product every month! I refuse to do that. I understand that my G4 is old but, it does what I need it to do. To answer your question though, I purchased the iPod classic as a refurbished unit, about 5 years ago and had it replaced three times, since then so, there is no way for me to know how old it is.
From my knowledge of how the Classics work(which is extensive.) It is basically a hard disk. There should be of performing a low level format, plug it back in and the G4 should recognize the ROm and automatically search for the correct software associated with that version of iPod and load it but, Apple will most likely no longer carry the software on their servers anymore!(surprise,surprise.)

Can I use my Ipod Classic(MC297ZP) with Sound Kick SFQ-04 via bluetooth

can I use my Ipod Classic(MC297ZP) with Sound Kick SFQ-04 via bluetooth

If you old charger is a USB (+5V output) it will work. If it is a Firewire charger (+12V) then I think it will still work, but Apple has removed Firewire charging from most of the new iPod lines including the iPhone and 4th Generation Nano. However I think that the 120GB Classic may be the last iPod to still charge off Firewire chargers.
It won't hurt anything to try it. If it doesn't work, you will get a screen display that states that the accessory is not supported or something to that effect.
Good luck,
Patrick

Will Apple replace my Ipod Touch 5g, Even if its over a year old?

I have an iPod touch 5g, which i bought in January of 2013. This iPod has been malfunctioning for a couple of days now. I connect it to a power source since it indicates its low on battery. When I do, it turns on, however, it will not charge much and the battery will continue to be red on the top right hand corner of the screen. I have an app which helps indicate around how much battery the iPod has. This app says that the iPod never charges past 15% and if i disconnect it, it shuts down. If the problem is in the battery, and it's a hardware problem, will Apple replace my iPod? Can they still do it? It is over a year old, but after all, i paid for a product that would last longer than a year and a half, didn't I?

You no longer have warranty coverage. Whatever Apple will do you will have to pay for it since it is out of warranty.

Podcasts Ipod Classic 80G

Hello Folks,
I am new to this forum, having just purchased a new Ipod Classic 80G yesterday. I tried so far to sync some golf lesson podcasts that I had subscribed to in Itunes, and they did sync with my Ipod, but are all in a single file, not in single lessons that I can access one at a time. I tried to create my own playlist of all of the in a list and sync'd that but they show up as music and will only play the sound on them. Can someone help me to get them on my Ipod in selectable order so I can play each one separately, with the video and sound?
Many thanks,
Jim

I discovered after working with my unit more, I had the lessons on it just the way I wanted them to be.
Jim
