Do I need to get Applecare right away or can I wait 11 months?

Hi,
I am looking into a new 14"iBook and I know alot of you recommend getting the extra coverage that comes with Applecare. My question is do I need to purchase Applecare when I purchase my iBook or can I wait 11 months after the purchase of my iBook and then purchase it?
Thom

Hi Thom F,
Yes, I believe you can. In the AppleCare Support PDF it says:
To qualify for the AppleCare Protection Plan, your product must be within its one-year Apple hardware warranty.
I hope that helps,
Jon

  • I can't uninstall in order to reinstall. It keeps telling me a previous version needs to have the computer restart. I restart. Back to needing to restart. Right now I can't access Firefox at all.

    I upgraded to the new version and something went funky. Tab weren't working. So thought I'd uninstall and reinstall and now I'm stuck in the cycle. I can't uninstall as it tells me that a previous version needs the computer to restart. I'll restart and then try again and get the same message. If I try to just reinstall, it get the same message. Right now, I can't access Firefox at all. Help!

    Hi @Skeetermarie85,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that you are unable to uninstall the software in order to re-install the software with your HP Officejet 8600. I am sorry for the frustration, but I am happy to help!
    I am not sure which version of Windows you are using, but this should work with Windows XP and up. Please try a level-three uninstall by going through this fatal error guide, Fatal Error 'Error 1155. Not Found.' (MSI Error 1155) Displays During Software Installation in Windo.... Even though this guide does not match your error, I believe the level-three instructions will help.
    If you still need further assistance, please reply with the version of Windows you are using. If you do not know the Operating System you are using, please visit this website. Whatsmyos.
    Hope this helps!

  • Restoring iPad - do i need to enter apple password immediately or can i wait?

    I am helping someone restore their iPad as after they updated to iOS 7 it asked for a passcode which they never had.
    I have restored the iPad and am at the point now where it is askin for their apple ID to activate the iPad. The person I am doing this for is not with me at the moment and I don't have their number (doing it for a someone at work). Can I wait until tomorrow when I can meet up with them and finish it or do I need it now?
    Thanks

    After installing iOS 7 you may be asked to provide a passcode; if you haven't ever defined one...
    If you don't see the word "skip" in small blue letters try the following.  Otherwise tap "skip".
    Enter any number and remember what it is.  See if this lets you in.  If so, go to Settings>General>passcode lock.  enter the number and then you can turn off passcode (a vary bad idea, as many have discovered when their devices were stolem) or turn off and then on using a different number.
    If your device is disabled at this point...
    Connect to your computer in recovery mode per the instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    You may need to do this more than once.

    Purchased new HP Pavilion G series in April 2010 ;operating system failed in Oct. 2010.  October of this year hard drive crashed and presently my speakers are muffled with this chirpy sound. What's happening?

  • I need help getting the right PCIe Raid Controller card.

    I have a Mac Pro 3.33 GHz (6 core) computer running 10.8.2. I purchased a Sans Digital TR4M+ http://www.sansdigital.com/towerraid-/tr4mplus.html which includes a Highpoint RR622 card but it's not bootable. I need a non-expensive card which is bootable. I'm currently using the drives in JBOD mode.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    I'm currently using the drives in JBOD mode.
    The RAID features built into Disk Utility support JBOD, Mirroring, and Striping without the use of a card.
    RAID methods that require checksum calculation, (e.g., RAID 5) always require a card to provide adequate speed.
    Consider whether you really NEED your Mac OS X Boot Volume to be on a RAID at all. A great deal of its data is either invariant (Mac OS X code and Applications code) or temporary ( caches). If damaged, Mac OS X and Applications can be rebuilt from DVDs in a few hours.
    Moving the Users files off to another Volume is a great way to speed up your Mac Pro, since it reduces competition for the busy Boot Drive.

  • Need help with this right away, leaving in two days!

    I'm running OS 10.3.5 and have just made a long movie on iMovie 4.0.1. I'd like to save it and burn it to a DVD but when I click on the iDVD button and click "create iDVD project", I get this message, "This version requires iDVD 3.0 or later. Please refer to iMovie Help for information about using earlier versions of iDVD with iMovie."
    How can I fix this so that I can burn my movie onto a DVD and have it ready by Friday when I leave on my trip?
    Thanks for your help!

  • New Hard Drive on old iMac - need help getting Admin rights

    My iMac hard drive finally crashed & I had to get a new one. The Apple Store did great at saving my files & programs, but I didn't know there had been a password set up originally (more than one person used this computer) and now I can't use some of my software already installed.  It also won't allow me to re-install it, without a password.
    How do I change my Administrator Password in order to enable me to install new photo software?  The system won't allow me to use some of my own programs at this point.  I have OS X Lion and the Support information claims I can go to Users & Groups and just click on my Apple ID somehow, but I can't get it unlocked to begin with.  What do I do??

  • Firefox six supports so few plugins and extensions that I needed to get rid of it. Can I get version 5 back.

    I am not only disappointed with Firefox 6, but upset that the only other version on your site is 3.6.20 which you say you will not support much longer. I was happy with Firefox 5, then made the mistake of letting your installer change me over to Firefox 6.
    Sure, you don't make the extensions etc. But you have broken so many of them that it would be a great ordeal to go to a dozen different places seeking new versions, which probably don't exist. I want Firefox 5 back. How come your website doesn't let me have it?

    Perhaps you didn't understand. The number of add-on problems was so severe that I could not live with it.
    You did not answer my question about getting an earlier version.
    And, I was still waiting for an important add-on to version 5, McAfee site advisor, which I really need.
    Asking me to manually check for so many new add-ons is unreasonable, and I just cannot wait for Firefox to find them. So I am back with 3.6.20 and grumpy about it.

  • Replaced a new HDD but need to get info from old HDD, can I swap it out?

    Excuse me if I sound like an idiot....my factory original 40GB Toshiba HDD finally had to be replaced after serving me for 5 yrs. I took it to a local dealer and replaced it with a new 160GB Samsung drive.
    Here comes the problem...I realized that I had forgotten to backup some important files. So my question is, is it safe (and possible) to open up the laptop myself, plug in the old drive, run it, and backup the files I want on a removable drive, and then swap the new drive back in?
    I hope I am not over-simplifying the problem. Thanks though, your help is greatly appreciated.

    Sorry let me backup.
    You have the 12" Powerbook correct?
    If so then that means that you have a IDE or some call it ATA (not to be confused with SATA found in new macs) type of drive.
    So what you need is an external 2.5" HDD case or enclosure that has an external interface that is firewire or USB, and an internal interface that is IDE or also known as ATA.
    check out these two links and maybe they will help.

    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/MOTGFWU2/
    On ebay the external enclosure/IDE is what you want, the external portable probably comes with a drive in it. You have a drive already you want to install into the case so you do not need the external portable.
    The 2.0 vs 2.5 I'm not sure about unless you typo'ed and meant 3.0 vs 2.5. As there are two different sizes for HDD's 3"(for desktops) and 2.5"(for laptops).
    Firewire and USB are rival interfaces which allow external devices to attach to a computer. Your Powerbook will accept either, but if you plan on using the external enclosure to boot you Powerbook then you'll need the firewire as Powerbooks can only boot external from firewire not USB. Some enclosures have both USB and Firewire and that would be ok, some people prefer them, as I do.
    I hope that your old drive is still strong enough to get the info off of it.
    What was wrong with it for you to replace it in the first place?

  • HT5622 iPhone is stuck on old ID and won't let me change the ID to get into Cloud segment of Settings.  Need to get this straight so I can backup to Cloud before updating to new System

    iPhone is stuck on old ID and won't let me change the ID in settings to get into Cloud.  Want to sync phone to Cloud before updating the Systems.  No such problem on other phone or 2 iPads linked to account.  Help!

    Thanks Bob,
    That was just a typo.
    I have three accounts set up in Mail, one of which, apart my the username which is my son's, has exactly the same settings as the one that isn't working and remember it's affecting all my devices.
    I would feel happier even if I could create a fourth account on my MacBook Pro using what I know to be the correct password for the server but when I try it keeps defaulting to imap type, I don't get an option for Pop which is what I need.
    Oh Bum.

  • My iPhone 4S won't change orientation from portrait to landscape even though its portrait orientation is unlocked? I got it two days ago and it has always been this way? Do I need to get a new one or can I fix it?

    So it is new (two days old I got it on the 20th of June) and the orientation of the screen will not change from portrait. I have looked at the lock in the multitasking bar and unlocked it and still nothing changes. YouTube, photos, texts, nothing works. Siri has also been blacking out while I use her so do I need a replacement for this defective phone? I got it from RadioShack Thursday. On a totally unrelated note does using your phone while charging it damage the battery? Anyway thanks

    Try this
    Restart iPhone: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for phone to restart (no data will be lost).
    Using the phone while charging doesn't create a problem.. I do it all the time
