Apple will only not replace them if they have been damaged through misuse or an accident. If they have been used properly they are warranted to work for one year. If they failed at 11 months and 29 days it does not matter that they've been "well loved and well used", they are supposed to last for one full year. Unless they purchase AppleCare then it is two years.

deggie--
AppleCare states:
Your Plan covers defects for the Applebranded product(s) listed in your Planʼs Certificate or Proof of Coverage document (“Plan Confirmation”) and the accessories that are contained in the product(s) original packaging (“Covered Equipment”),
(ii) Under APP for iPod, Apple will provide technical support for the Covered Equipment, iPod OS
and software applications that are pre-installed with the Covered Equipment (both referred to as
"iPod Software") and connectivity issues between the Covered Equipment and a supported
computer, meaning a computer that meets the Covered Equipmentʼs connectivity specifications and
runs an operating system that is supported by the Covered Equipment. Apple will provide support
for the then-current version of the iPod Software, and the prior supported Major Release.
Also--I never said that they shouldn't take them back--just to not be surprised if they were not replaced. They may well be, and as stated above, +I could be quite mistaken.+
I am also presuming that these are not the stock earbuds that come with iPods, but a set of headphones that may not be stock issue. (They may not even be Apple-brand.) If these are the Apple in-ear headphones with remote that one buys as a standalone purchase, then they should be replaced if under a year. If these are the Dr. Dre sets...who knows? I am working with the information I got from the original poster.
I guess I've worked too much retail, and have seen too many worst-case scenarios. I'd rather see them get replaced (and be incorrect) than to say yes, they'll be replaced no questions asked--and find out later they weren't.
Still--a year warranty should be a year warranty....

    Before installing a new drive - it is generally better to install it in a external usb enclosure and connect it to your Macbook so you can format/erase the new drive and make an exact clone of the drive you wish to install, unless you plan on doing a clean install.

  • My lock button has stopped working will Apple replace my phone with a new one?

    I have an iPhone 5 which I got in January of 2013 it is now October 2013 and my lock button has stopped and the camera seems to be depixelating I think, would Apple replace the phone with a new iPhone, I haven't dropped it, it has no major dents or drop wounds. Also as a secondary question, if they do replace the phone do I get the charger cable ect? or are no accessories included ?

    No accessories, just a perfect Replacement iPhone 5 exactly like yours, same color, same GB, everything the same.

  • Will Apple replace my headphones? Please help!

    2 months ago I bought an iPhone 4. The headphones that came with it have sadly stopped working. The right earbud doesn't work and same with the remote (buttons). The headphones are the Apple Headphones with Mic and Remote. Will Apple replace it for free and how can I do that? There is no apple store near me, so would I do it through mail, or what? Can someone explain the process? Thanks!

    Go to the store from where you bought them, and they should handle it.
    Other vise, call Apple Customer Service.
    But yes, you should get them replaced.

  • Replace playing video with new one in osmf player

    Hi,
    I have a problem with loading new video in osmf player. First video is loaded from the emmbed code, and I use ProxyElement to comunicate with MediaLEment and to load my plugin. But after some actions in my plugin I need to load another video in the Player. By changing the DisplayedObject from the proxiedElement I am loading the new video but the old video from emmbed code is still runing on the back. Does anyone know how to remove mediaElement created by the player or to replace with new one, ot at least to disable that video from playing. I tried with everything and it doesn't work.
    Thanks

    hi,
    you can change into new Data Source.
    From new Data Source you can load data into the old ods.
    but if you want to kepp the old records as it is, then don't delete data in the ods.
    hope this helps......

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Only if the iPhone is in warranty. If not, you will probably have to pay for a refurbished iPhone (Apple doesn't repair iPhones and return them to you). See "Warranty & Service Pricing" > http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipho ne

  • Will apple replace my phone with a new one?

    I have always noticed since the day I got my 3g- sometime the seccond week it came out-that it had the problem of "light leak.". I just did not know it was a problem until today when I was searching for articles about my iPhone 3g dead pixel which I noticed yesterday. I think it's a dead pixel-black/grayish and looks like dust or eraser shaving under screen. I also have a couple of stuck pixels-green dots. Anyway, the pixel problems are very anoying to me. If I make an appointment with the apple retail store genius bar close to where I live, will apple fix my phone, give me a refurbished phone, or give me a brand new phone? I know the 3g s is comming out in a few days, but I am not looking for my current 3g to be replaced with a 3g s, just a new normal 3g. Any ideas on what would happen?

    Every warranty claim is on a case by case basis. If someone here tells you that their iPhone was exchanged under warranty with the same problem as you described doesn't mean that Apple will do the same in your case. All you can do is make an appointment and see what they say after your iPhone is inspected and tested. If your iPhone is exchanged under warranty, you would not receive an iPhone 3GS as the exchange if requested.
    Per the written warranty, an exchange under warranty will be a new or refurbished iPhone without you being able to tell the difference.

  • Does Apple accept to replace my rMBP with new one? (bought from unauthorized reseller)

    I bought a rMBP 13'' from and unauthorized reseller 3 days ago in UAE but the device part number is LL/A.
    After testing many things and talking to Apple guy we are almost sure that The rMBP has hardware (wifi) problem.
    Now my question is can I ask apple to replace my rMBP by a new one? Is this contain their terms? if so please give me links from apple website that I can ask them for a replace base on that.
    Thanks in advance

    You have 14 days from the date of purchase to return or exchange w/no questions asked.  Doesn't matter where you purchased from as long as you have a legit receipt. 

  • Does apple replace iphone 4 with refurb ones?

    So i replaced my iphone 4 with another one because it had issues. I asked the genius employee if i will be getting a new or refurbished one. He told me i would be getting a new one. He also said that my old one will be sent to a fatory to be recycled "properly" Now a friend of mine said she is friend with 2 apple employees that said they replace it with refurb ones they just lie and say they give new ones.

    I should correct you in that carriers seem to have a different return date than Apple does. Verizon has a 14 day policy, and Apple's is 30. I wish I remembered that when I bought my 4 since I could have returned it for a 4S...hm.
    Also, there isn't really any way to tell the difference between New and Refurb, even when using SN# identification methods (build number, production week, etc.).
    You'd also want to restore from a backup of the old device, to load app data, messages, contacts, etc. You wouldn't want to restore from backup, say if OP had purchased a new computer.

  • Replacing Old characteristic with new ones in a Cube

    Hi,
    I have 3 Z InfoObjects for capturing time information like the month, year and week. The user is requesting for variables like current month, current year etc on these variables frequently. I have written customer exit for bringing the current week etc values on the Z InfoObjects.
    However, I want to avoid writing of the code in future and hence have created 3 more InfoObjects which reference to the standard time characteristics, i.e. the Z month InfoObject will refer 0CALMONTH etc. so that the standard variables of 0CALMONTH can be used for our Z InfoObjects also. Now I want to replace the old InfoObjects with these new InfoObjects(the ones referencing the standard time characteristics) in a InfoCube. My question is how do we get the historic data for these new InfoObjects as the Historic data is in the old Z InfoObjects. Any thoughts/suggestions would be helpful..
    thanks in advance.

    <i>Generated export Datasource of the InfoCube after adding the new 3 characteristics. Then in the Update Rules mapped only these 3 characteristics with the old characteristics and did a full upload.</i>
    You need to map the 3 old Characteristics to the 3 new ones, and you need to map all the other InfoObjects too.
    In the following I refer to the 3 old temporal Charactersitcs as T1, T2 and T3 - and to the 3 new temporal Chars as T1', T2' and T3'. The other (old) Chars are referred to as Cn, and the Key Figures as KFn:
    T1 --> T1'
    T2 --> T2'
    T3 --> T3'
    C4 --> C4
    C5 --> C5
    KF1 --> KF1
    KF2 --> KF2
    After the load you should delete the old requests to avoid data duplication.
    <i>I was expecting that the record will have the new characteristic and also the value in it after the load. But it is not happening.</i>
    I reckon you don't have any value because you haven't mapped the Key Figs (as well as severlal Characteristics) in the Update Rules.

  • Will apple replace broken ibook with macbook

    I don't know if Apple will replace my iBook G4 12" with a MacBook? I think that that won't happen for another 6 months or a year, is that true.
    iBook G4, Dell 4550, Dell 2200, Toshiba AS257, iPod 3G 15 GB, 2, iPod G4 20GB, iPod Mini 1G 4GB   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Apple will make three repair attempts per unit and then they'll give up on it. When they decide to give up and replace your computer they will replace it with a current model most like the computer you have. If you have a 1.33 ghz iBook this would mean a 1.83 ghz MacBook.
    But don't expect Apple to be willing to replace your computer. They'll replace every part in your computer on the first repair attempt if they have to. Logic board complaints usually result in apple replacing the logic board, keyboard, hard drive, etc. Basically when they repair a computer for logic board failure (the most catastrophic thing other than the monitor) you get almost a new system back.

  • My Macbook is 4 months old and is making a constant clicking sound. Will Apple exchange mine for a new one instore?

    I bought my Macbook Pro in Sept 2011 and just a few days ago it started making this clicking noise which stops and starts every 20 seconds. No programmes are open and it sounds as though the noise is coming from inside the computer. I picked it up one time and it sounded like something was sliding inside but this has only happened twice. If I take it into the store will they be able to fix it or give me a new one?

    That is the safest thing to do. In fact if it were my Mac I would have backed it up already as soon as I heard that noise. Besides is they replace the disk there is a chance they could lose your data.
    Backups are good.
    In this case I suggest a bootable clone created with either Carbon Copy Clone or SuperDuper.
    The length of time for repair depends on how busy they are. I would expect them to tell you two or three days.

  • Will Apple replace an iPod with broken charging port

    My daughter has had her iPod for a year will Apple Repair or replace an iPod with broken charging port.

    If still under warranty, Apple frequently says the damage is caused by operator error and would only be covered by an Applecare+ extended warranty.
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs They do not fix yours.

  • Replacing magic mouse with new one

    I dropped my old magic mouse and broke it. Bought a new one. I have deleted everything i can find but my system wants to connect to the old one and will not discover the new one. How...?

    Finder Go menu -> Go to Folder... "/Library/Preferences", then remove "com.apple.Bluetooth.plist", then reboot could solve the problem.
