Help, my I pad 2 just cracked for no reason! And apple won' t do anything for me.

I loved my I pad until it cracked. I've only had it for 2 months and it just cracked. I called and they made me an appointment at the store. I drove ann hour to be told basically to go to hell. There was no one time courtesy replacement. Just 500& to fix it. I don't know what to do, so upset that Apple won't stand by it's product and don't have 500$

My wife dropped hers and cracked it...grrrr... anyway I replaced the screen myself. I've done 4th gen ipod touch's before...the ipad was easier..but not for the faint of heart. Plus I think it voids the warranty...there are several places online that would fix it for you much cheaper than the cost of a new ipad. I got my new screen on amazon for around $45 if I recall.

I am sorry about your iPad. However, we are a private forum with no affiliation with Apple, so all we can do is provide commiseration to you. Please see this thread for other tales of cracked screens and how others here may (or may not) have gotten assistance from Apple: http://www.ipadforums.net/ipad-2-fo...-screen-got-free-replacement-apple-store.html

As that thread is long-running and contains a wealth of information, this thread is closed. Good luck and thanks for your understanding.
