    Apple rejects repairing imac under consumer law (UK, England)

    Hi there, Apple has rejected repairing the screen of a 5 year old iMac that’s facing image ghosting on the display. The device was shown and confirmed that the damage is hardware failure and not user induced (by an Apple store repairman). Is the display considered a consumable? To my...

    Hi I've got a 27-inch late 2013 iMac with 3TB Fusion Drive, and long story short, the HDD part of the drive has failed and hence needs replacing (I've attached a much longer explanation of how I got to this point at the end for those that are interested). I took it to my local Genius Bar today...

    Loose Haptic engine in S2 Watch - but Apple won't repair it
