okay i have had my video ipod for i think 2 years now. i am pretty sure i still have a warranty cause i got an extended, not positive though. anyways today i could only hear out of one headphone. i switched them and everything....if i pushed it in the jack realllly hard it would work but not just sitting there...think they would give me what it's worth? cause i've been wanting a touch anyways....

there's only one way to find out and here's a hint- it's NOT by asking NS.  believe it or not, we aren't in charge of Apple's warranty program.

normally i don't mind you but seriously dude shut the fuck up. do you know how many people here have ipods? almost everyone. thats pretty good chances of someone on this site having a similar problem or some idea about the warranty better than me. sorry i don't want to drive a minimum of 45 minutes to get turned down, i don't like wasting my time. i am allowed to ask a damn question.

When you buy the extended warranty from apple you get an applecare card, put in the number on the back of that. if you bought the store's warranty you'll have to go to the store.

ok, you obviously guessed wrong... i wasn't telling you to go into a store, the correct answer is "call Apple".  who cares if tons of people on here have iPods?  the Touch is new enough that it's incredibly unlikely that someone on here would know what their warranty policy is regarding exchanging older models that were the same price for the Touch.  you can be as mad, miffed, and pissed at me as you'd like, but this is actually a pretty simple issue that you could have resolved hours ago by calling Apple instead of asking NS.

i am not mad, you just didn't need to be a dick. i would have been fine if you woulda told me this, you just don't have to be such an asshole about it. thats all. and i am pretty sure i got the stores warranty, because i got it at best buy. i will have to go there i suppose

and i'm pretty sure Best Buy has a phone...

as for me being a dick... deal with it.  lots of people are retards and i have to put up with them, so everyone else can deal with me being a bit of a dick from time to time.  if you want me to stop being a dick, stop asking stupid questions.

yeah it was... how are any of us supposed to know what Apple's warranty policy is regarding exchanging for the iPod Touch?  instead of asking us to speculate, he could have called Best Buy or Apple (since the warranty is likely through Apple at the end of the day) and gotten the answer in probably 5-10 minutes tops.  this was an issue none of us could help him with beyond telling him to call the company, so it was a stupid question for him to bring to NS.

and i am chilled out, thanks.
