I went to the Square Apple store in London to replace an iPod remote and the headphones that came with it.



I was told by the manager to register my iPod via the website, tell apple about the problem and get a replacement via the apple website....



My only problem is... I have no idea how to do this.....

    Not sure about the telling them of the problem (possibly somewhere in the support section).



    As for registering, go to <a href="http://register.apple.com"; target="_blank">http://register.apple.com</a>; to register the iPod.

    Should not the store where you purchased the iPod provide neccessary replacements?

    No: the warranty is Apple's responsibility, it goes through their process.



    I speak as my iPod languishes in Amsterdam following a fairly terminal attack of the Sad iPod Icon.



    The only plus is that, even though it's over a year old, Apple seem to think it's under warranty...

    hmmmm...



    Matsu, in answer to your question, the manager of the apple store in london says a replacement will come through far quicker via the website than if I go through the store. I will ring him on monday to say that I can't do it, hopefully he'll sort it out then.



    He couldn't help me immediately, so he even knocked off £10 off an iPod cary case, which was nice.

    I spoke to the warranty department the other day and they're waiting for new supplies to come in... <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" />
