Implied (or statutory) warranty, give you the following basic rights. The goods you purchase must:
- be and remain free of debt, charges or mortgages, ie. ‘clear title’, unless they are disclosed or known to you before you agree to buy the goods
-be of ‘merchantable quality’ ie. meet the basic level of quality and performance expected, considering their description, price and other relevant circumstances. Goods that have a fault should be labelled as seconds or damaged stock
- be fit for a particular purpose if you have made a specific purpose known to the seller and have relied on the seller’s skill or judgement
-match any description or sample (eg. if the package displays a picture or describes the contents, the contents must match that description).

Any problems under an implied warranty can be dealt with by the seller. Do not be misled by the seller into thinking you must only deal with the manufacturer.

That last bit is the best!! This means that Apple (in this case the seller) is responsible for handling/resolving the issue, not the person that developed the software.
