Will my nearest apple storm front shop be able to give me a replacement the same day like apple stores do?

I have a dead pixel and some dirt or hair under the screen glass of my ipad mini. The dirt was there as of the 2nd week I had the ipad. I was far too busy to go to the shop I bought it from and return but now that I'm less busy I would like to rectify the issue. Do you know if I can go into my local storm front shop (local apple experts) and walk out with a new one like the apple store? I'm too far away from an apple store at the moment. Many thanks for reading.

Call them and ask them. Only way to know for sure. The rest of us would just be guessing.

Will my nearest Apple store replace my iPod 3rd Gen battery and if so roughly how much will it cost?

Really as the subject says. I don't really want to spend my time travelling to the nearest shop (as I will end up drooling and possibly broke when I come out) but want to know if I did go how much would it cost

See the iPod Owners section in this Apple support document for pricing and other information regarding a battery replacement for your iPod.

I've encountered 4HDD/11/40000000 SATA(0,0). AFTER SOME RESEARCH IN APPLE COMMUNITY, I LEARNT THAT IT'S A HARDWARE ISSUE. SO I WILL BE TAKING MY MACBOOK PRO TO NEAREST APPLE STORE. MY QUE IS, WILL IT BE FIXED IF I UPGRADE FROM OSX 10.8.5 TO MAVERICKS?

MY QUE IS, WILL IT BE FIXED IF I UPGRADE FROM OSX 10.8.5 TO MAVERICKS? What other options do I have? What can be an approximate cost for fixing this problem?

Of course not. It's a hardware problem, so it can't be fixed by upgrading software. The only option you have got is to take the MacBook to an Apple Store or reseller.
That error indicates a problem with the hard drive. What you have to do is to make a backup of your files and take the MacBook to an Apple Store or reseller, so they can confirm that the problem is the hard drive and not the SATA connector, which could be worse.
If it's a hard drive issue, it's not expensive (about $100-200, depending on the hard drive). If it's a SATA connector issue, the whole logic board may have to be replaced.
Note that you can replace the hard drive yourself if you want, but the cost between doing it yourself and taking the MacBook to an Apple Store or reseller is similar

Do what it said to do.

Replacement Needed. This iphone is not able to complete the activation process and needs to be replaced. Please visit your nearest apple store or authorized service center.

Probably will never ever think of buying a locked phone from AT&T cause its one of the worst system integrations ever that these companies could think of.
The entire problem started when I put in a request with at&t to unlock my iphone 4s (ios7) which did get approved. I performed the entire instructions they asked me to do, which is to backup and restore. After doing those instructions my iphone gave me an error message below
The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
The SIM card that you currently installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information.
Basically saying that at&t hasn't still unlocked the iphone which a really helpful apple executive was able to confirm. I initiated another unlock process from at&t in order to unlock the iphone, just to be sure that its not something wrong from my end. The nice at&t lady stayed on chat with me to unlock the iphone step my step while I was calling the apple tech too. And the apple tech confirmed again that the iphone is locked to at&t.
Now, just a few minutes ago I tried another restore to see if any progress is being made and to my surprise I got an error message saying
Replacement Needed. This iphone is not able to complete the activation process and needs to be replaced. Please visit your nearest apple store or authorized service center.
I feel like I am just going around these two different "money hogger" companies which set certain rules and regulations to screw a regular phone buyer. I purchased this iphone in USA and trying to unlock in India, is it really this hard to simply unlock a device.
For now I am going to try to call a apple office in india (apprently we don't have very many out here) and see if they can help me. But any other assistance regarding unlocking an iphone 4s would be helpful. I have however, tried checking IMEI.info, called up apple, talked to at&t (which always say go talk to apple) I do have a case number from apple as well in case an apple executive reads this discussion forum (case number: 566383594)
Thanks

You got a confirmation from AT&T that it was authorized. Is this correct? - Yes i did get an email authorization on the 21st.
Then you connected the phone to a computer with the latest version of iTunes installed. You clicked on the phone's name in iTunes, then clicked "Backup Now". - Yes
When that finished you clicked "Restore iPhone" (NOT "Restore Backup") - Yes
Are you with me so far? - Yes.
And @ Varjak is right that after the 3rd restore I get the replacement error.
Plus I have NEVER jailbroken the iPhone. To give you another update, I spoke to a really nice apple tech in India who was atleast able to get me out of the replacement error by doing a recovery mode option. However, the lastest restore still gives me the same error

My iPhone 4 shut down in the middle of a conversation and won't restart or charge. Any suggestions? The nearest Apple store is hours away from where I live.

I've tried that several times. It will not reset. The screen just stays black. I've never had this problem before. It usually resets the first time.

We're sorry, the device you connected may be damaged and cannot be activated for service. We recommend you visit your nearest Apple Store for more information. To find your nearest Apple Store, click here.

I needed to restore my phone to an earlier restore point because my notes were deleted after I restored I recieved this message
"We’re sorry, the device you connected may be damaged and cannot be activated for service. We recommend you visit your nearest Apple Store for more information. To find your nearest Apple Store, click here."
I need to get phone running asap abd do not want to go to Apple to talk with Genius.

That message will occur when you put in a NON-AT&T sim
just get the sim out and try again

If i buy a movie in itunes, the movie will be avaliable on my iMac and my computer with itunes? They have the same ID Apple...

Once the movie has completey download, having an Internet connection is no longer necessary. It would be wise to test the movie before you leave, though, in case of glitches.

When there will be an Apple Store in Venezuela?

I would like to know if there will be an Apple Store in Venezuela someday. I didn't know where to put this question.

Why does Apple keep asking me to reset my security questions over and over again? How do they expect us to remember if we have to keep redoing it over and over again on the same day?

I had just redone all my security questions and committed them all to memory. Then the very next time I tried to log in-in oder to 'verify' they made me make up brand new ones. How does this 'verify' if they are new ones? How do they expect you to remember the security questions if they make you reset them over and over again on the the same day?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and sign out and sign back in
- Reset your Apple ID password

I have a iTunes account and recently 2 of the song I have downloaded will not play, it says that it not authorised to play. How ever on the same day the other songs I downloaded that day are playing fine

I have a iTunes account and recently 2 of the song I have downloaded will not play, it says that it not authorised to play. How ever on the same day the other songs I downloaded that day are playing fine. I can't play the 2 song on my lap top and I-pod.

Hello Jigz19,
It sounds like you are unable to play a couple of songs from your library becuase you get a message that the computer is unauthorized to play, but other content purchased that same day works without issue. I would verify that the affected songs were purchased with the same Apple ID first:
Recovering a forgotten iTunes Store account name
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1920
Open iTunes
Highlight one of the items you have purchased (You can find your purchases in your Purchases playlist).
Choose File > Get Info.
Click the Summary tab.
The Account Name area will list the account used to purchase the item. Unless you have changed accounts, this is your iTunes Store account name.
If so, then delete the songs:

Will 10 wrong fingerprint attempts to access my iPhone 5s wipe out my data the same way 10 incorrect passcode attempts do?

Will 10 wrong fingerprint attempts to access my iPhone 5s wipe out my data the same way 10 incorrect passcode attempts do?

Hi iMonk3y,
After five incorrect fingerprint attempts, Touch ID will revert to requiring a passcode:
iPhone 5s: Using Touch ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5883
Using Touch ID instead of your passcode
You can use Touch ID to unlock your phone without having to enter your passcode every time. There are two ways you can unlock with Touch ID:
Press the Home button once to wake iPhone 5s and keep your finger lightly on the Home button.
Press the Sleep/Wake button once to wake iPhone 5s, and then touch your finger lightly on the Home button.
If Touch ID doesn't recognize your finger, you'll be asked to try again. After three attempts, you'll be given the option of entering your passcode. After two more tries, you will need to enter your passcode. In addition, you will need to enter your passcode to unlock your iPhone in these conditions:
After restarting your iPhone 5s
When more than 48 hours have elapsed from the last time you unlocked your iPhone 5s
To enter the Passcode & Fingerprint setting
Regards,
- Brenden
