You love your iPod, we all do, but what if something happens and your iPod breaks? Your first thought is’Oh my goodness, I won’t possibly survive without my iPod!’ Well that may be my first thought anyway.
Let’s say the iPod fell from your pocket while you were jogging and broke into one thousand little pieces ; no-brainer, time to get a new iPod. Shall we say your iPod just started acting strange and stopped working, or it slid into the water but you got it out quickly so it couldn’t possibly have gotten all that wet. And, naturally, this all occurs after the guaranty on the iPod ends.
Just in case you perhaps damage your iPod right after you get it, Apple provides free one year from date of purchase guaranty on iPods. The warranty does not include damages caused by accident, liquid damage, disassembly or unapproved service or modifications. So basically only if your iPod stops working for some unknown reason is it covered by Apple. They also offer, for an additional fee, and extended warranty plan that extends to two years from the date of purchase.
Great, but my iPod is beyond the guaranty or extended guaranty date, or is damaged by an implies makes it exempt from the guaranty. So, what to do? I might be thinking it could be worth looking into getting my damaged iPod repaired rather than heading out and buying a new one. As everyone knows, we adore them but theyare not inexpensive.

Your iPod fully died. It didnot fall in the water. It didn’t hit the floor. But it is dead, not a strong indication. It might be the drive died, and it might just be time to kill it and go to the store for a new one. But some folks don’t give up all that easily. If you need a diagnosis of death, or an autopsy to discover why your iPod died, or are perhaps interested by learning whether a transplant that would bring your iPod back to life, there are websites that say they can perform these services for you.
