eddiewalker posted:If I drop it, that's an accident swap. Hardware failure doesn't have a deductible, right? You are correct. The big thing with Applecare Plus is the accidental coverage but people tend to forget it also gives you a full two years of the regular warranty too.

Yeah you don't have to janitor your battery. I think the only thing for modern batteries is not to leave it charging for a very long time, like days. That's not a problem with a phone or tablet but more for laptops.

I know that U2 is labeled 'dad rock' around here but they are still a pretty big draw. Giving an album away was a good idea. The auto-download thing is the big failure here.

A corporate ATT store should never charge you for a new SIM. An independent one may because they can and because it's 99.9% profit. ATT charges them peanuts for a SIM card itself. There are no fees on ATTs end for activating a new sim and killing the old one.

Go into your iMessage settings on your iPhone. Under text message forwarding, turn the slider to off of for your iPad. Turn it back on and that should make the pin pop up on your iPad.

nickutz posted:I dropped my careless 6 last night and the only scratch on it is a cracked camera lens cover. Somehow doesn't show up when taking pictures though so it's not a huge issue, but is that something that can be fixed at an Apple Store next time I'm in a city with one? They can definitely replace the camera. The only question is if they'll say it's accidental damage or not.

I'd agree with you on that. For those of you with wifi troubles, have you tried the basics for troubleshooting? -Update router firmware -Blow up router back to defaults -Leave the network open just for troubleshooting purposes I can't think of any offhand, but I've seen devices that just straight up have issues with certain routers. You could try buying a new router for troubleshooting purposes as well and return the router if that doesn't do the trick.

Clocks posted:I have phone-wide wifi issues as well on my 5s. Do you have issues with other wifi networks? Also, if you're leasing your modem/router combo from your ISP (which are usually giant pieces of poo poo in my experience) you can pretty easily get a replacement from them. I'm not sure what the process is for this when dealing with Verizon. I know when I leased one from Comcast, I could just take it to the nearest Comcast store and say 'hey this thing don't work' and they'd give me a new one with no hassle. I know it's frustrating. I'm just relating things to you that I've observed and fixes I've found. I understand how it feels.

Bum the Sad posted:And would the try to count that cable as one of my two accidental damages? Because then I'd be retarded to do it. I don't think so. Accidental damage is $80 a pop. A new cable is $20. If you have a bad cable take it to an Apple Store and see what happens. At best they'll just give you a new one at worst they'll say no and you gotta spend $20 on one.

It showed the last opened app as gmail when I hadn't used it last. I have a pass code and was home so no one could have tinkered with it- what gives? This hasn't happened before. Use Siri to find the phone number of a local aspergers doctor and get yourself checked out.

Even if it's out of warranty, they can do repairs for a fee. No idea if they'll touch your phone at all now because of the third-party work done to it.

If that doesn't work... -Wipe your phone, install newest version, DO NOT restore any sort of backup. If that doesn't work... -Go to Apple store and get it fixed. I don't know if they can just replace the home button or if they have to give you a new phone.

Feenix posted:Thanks yea I have clean hands and haven't yet done a wipe. The only downside is if have to wipe my phone then wait a few days which is inconvenient on a 'bare' phone. (Because the process of my fingers no longer working seems to take a few days... You can still setup your iCloud, iTunes, email accounts, etc, just don't restore from any backups (local or iCloud). It sucks, but if you go to an Apple Store without doing that, they may not replace your phone because that is the first troubleshooting step.
