I dropped my ipod touch on cement and now the screen has a half in line from top to bottom on the left side?

Question

the screen also looks way lighter, I have had my ipod for more than the 90 day warranty and I cant return it, when I went on the apple website and I only found that it says they will fix it within the 90 days, I thought they would have a section where you could send it to be fixed and then you could pay them to fix it and pay shipping, but I couldnt find anywhere where it saud that, I would hate to have to pay another $500 for an ipod plus $400 in songs..does anyone know where I can get it fixed or anyplace that specializes in apple repairs? I couldnt find any around where I live in Michigan.

Answer 1

IPODS ARE REPAIRABLE, so don't toss it, please.

The screen part itself is only $40 to $50 plus labor, and there are several online services that will repair the ipod for you and are MUCH less expensive that Apple.

Apple does out-of-warranty repair - go to the support section and select you ipod model and the contact info should be available.)

Google "ipod touch screen repair" (no quotes) for other folks.

The procedure is not too difficult if you are comfortable with electronics.  There are many DIY videos available on YouTube.
