Hi adeyy,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
The AppleCare FAQs has some information that you might find helpful:

Where can I purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan?
Depending on the Apple product, the AppleCare Protection Plan is available at the Apple Online Store, Apple Retail Stores, and many Apple Authorized Resellers including many wireless service providers. Apple recommends that you purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan in your country of residence, because each AppleCare Protection Plan has terms and conditions specific to consumers in the country or region in which the plan is offered. Please see the AppleCare Protection Plan Terms and Conditions for complete details.

  • What is the best method for moving to a new Retina MacBook Pro from an Early 2011 15-inch MacBook Pro using Migration Assistant?

    I'd like to transfer all data to the new MacBook as seamless as possible. Don't want to reinstall software. Using Migration Assistant in past was successful, but I always used Firewire or Ethernet.
    Apple's Thunderbolt cable is too expensive at $49. Wifi is way too slow. (Transfering my 500GBs was going to take over 100 hours.) Do I need to get a Thunderbolt-to-Gigabit Ethernet adapter and cable? That's about the same price as the Thunderbolt cable. Is transfer over USB 2 possible? Would I be better off restoring from my Carbon Copy Clone on my USB 2 external drive?
    I do not use Time Machine.

    Stephen Coles wrote:... Do I need to get a Thunderbolt-to-Gigabit Ethernet adapter and cable?
    That's what I used, although I already had the ethernet cable. Just directly connected both machines (after turning off Airport on the old one), no router or anything else, and ran Migration Assistant on both ends. Transfered a user account with about 30Gb data, nothing else. 

  • I want to buy apple car protection but I missed the cut off by 12 days. Anything I can do?

    I want to buy apple car protection but I missed the cut off by 12 days. Anything I can do? It would be great if Apple reminded me. There's nothing wrong with my laptop and it is well taken care of. I just want the extra protection. Any help?

    No, there's nothing you can do at this point.  Note that AppleCare must be a better deal in the long run for Apple than for you, otherwise they wouldn't sell it.  The same is true for all extended warranties.  In the long run, you should spend less paying out-of-pocket for warranty repairs (which don't happen often anyway) than buying AppleCare.  Especially since AppleCare doesn't cover accidental damage.

    When you buy an iPhone in the U.S. it's locked to that country with the carrier you bought it for.
    If you bought the device unlocked in the U.S. it's unlocked, you can use it on any carrier. Even one's outside the country.
    If you want to do a repair on a device you bought in the U.S. and your using it in another country, you must send it back to the U.S. Why? That's where you bought it from.
    AppleCare Protection Plans and AppleCare Limited Warranties are registered to your hardware.
    Your hardware is your iPhone.
    Wherever hardware that was bought then that's the country it was designed to be used in and that's where it was manufactured.
    Apple is very localized - if you call U.S. tech support, you'll speak to somone in your country.
    So, what does all this mean?
    In order to do a repair, you need to send it back to the country you got it from.
    And we're all customers like you. We understand that you're upset, but Apple isn't gonna bend the rules to one individual.
    Policy is policy. Get over it.

  • I bought a used macbook pro from a friend. Software updates are available, but when I try to update, the computer asks for apple id and will only accept the former owner´s. How can I connect my macbook to my apple id?

    I bought a used macbook pro from a friend. Software updates are available, but when I try to update, the computer asks for apple id and will only accept the former owner´s. How can I connect my macbook to my apple id?

    The first thing you should do after acquiring a used computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. How you do that depends on the model. Look it up on this page to see what version was originally installed.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard installation disc, which you can get from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the gray installation discs that came with it. If you don't have the discs, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To boot from an optical disc, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, it should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    Once booted from the disc or in Internet Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive, which is what you should do.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    You should then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. If you want to upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, buy it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.

    Hi 7oaksGaz,
    1) Due to tax reasons, it's not possible to change the country associated with an existing Adobe ID.
    Follow the steps mentioned in the below link as a workaround to create an Adobe ID with the email address you currently use for the existing Adobe ID.

  • I have the late 2013 Macbook Pro 15 inch with apple care, and the display flickers in a certain spot at a certain brightness. Has anyone ever had this issue, and what did you do about it?

    I doubt this is a GPU issue i've restarted my Mac, but the shape of the flickering area is in a cone shape comming from the bottom edge from the right side in about 2 inches. I'm thinking this is a failing display?

    Apple will cover it if it was an accident or defect. Take it to a nearby Genius bar. I'm guessing its a graphics card or display issue. But the symptoms of a damaged GPU for me were different. I had issues with my last 13" MacBook Pro non-retina mid 2012. If I set it down or moved my machine, my screen would flicker and the pixels would be completely off and the whole system would freeze, even if I wasn't using it. If it fronze when I didn't use it, it would get REALLY hot. Like I said, if it's an accident and less than a year old, Apple will cover repairs. If it's older than a year and it was accidental, AppleCare won't cover it. If it was a defect, it will be covered as long as the AppleCare hasn't expired. If you buy a MacBook through BestBuy, you could buy BestBuy Care which covers accidental and defects. My friend fried his last machine with water and apple was going to charge him the price of a new machine and BestBuy charged about $900 and then he paid extra to upgrade to a new retina display.

  • Is it possible to purchase an Applecare plan from the United States (LLA) for a MacBook Pro from Latin America (LZA)?

    Is it possible to purchase an Applecare plan from the United States (LLA) for a MacBook Pro from Latin America (LZA)?

    That's somewhat of a legal question which may not be able to be answered here by the uers/volunteers - I'd suggest you check with a local apple store.
    In the US, you can purchase it at any authorized reseller as long as you register it with the serial number of the computer within the first 364 days of ownership, but I do not know if a US product will work with one from another country.

  • Now I am in Thailand. Can i buy Refurbished Macbook pro from US appple store?

    Excuse me. I am in Thailand. Can i buy Refurbished Macbook pro from US apple store?

    The USA web store requires payment in US funds, from a US source, and with a US billing address for the account.  And as Limnos mentions, they do not ship internationally - they will only ship to a US street address (no P.O. Boxes so no re-shipper will work either).

  • HT2476 I got my Macbook Pro from another user (different apple id) and now i'm not able to update iPhoto and iMovie. What can i do?

    I got my Macbook Pro from another user (different apple id) and now i'm not able to update iPhoto and iMovie. What can i do?

    You need to contact Apple and transfer that computer, the serial number, into your name and your Apple ID. Then you should be able to update the included Apple Apps from the App store. No need to Re-buy them again.
    Caveat to the above.
    If your Mac did not originally come with Lion Preinstalled, early releases of early 2011 models and older, and originally had Snow Leopard installed the original owner should of supplied the Mac OS X System Discs with the system. If that person didn't you should order them from Apple at a small fee, and don't lose them.

  • Is apple care for iphone limited for the country you've purchased?

    Is apple care for iphone limited for the country you've purchased?

    I believe it is international.
    Each product has a different AppleCare Agreement and different conditions.
    For the iPhone there are online several AppleCare manuals in different languages. May be they are just translations but may be each different language/country give different rules.
    Anyway if you buy in a country and register Applecare in that country you recive your actual Manual and rules to follow.  If you need assistence you can call your serivce number or start the request online. Apple will decide according to the problem and your location how to procede: you may go to a service center, or send the item to the adress Apple will provide to you, or Apple can send you parts to repair it yourselve.
    This should not be limited to a country.
