Am I too late to purchase Applecare ?

I just received a CD 2.16 MBP that I purchased used off Ebay. The seller claimed it was 5 months old, but when I registered on the Apple site it told me it was purchased in Mar 06.
I'd really like to purchase Applecare. is this going to be a problem seeing as though I have missed the 1 year window ?

Even if Apple does let you purchase AppleCare, with this one lie, could also give you reason to question the quality of the goods sold to you. They may have damaged them in some shape or form they aren't telling you. Go to another seller. One lie, and I'm out of there. eBay has a lot of fraud going on according to http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/fraudreports/topic1939.html

HT1688 Is it possible for me to purchase AppleCare+ within a year of my iPhone 5 purchase date?

I bought my iPhone 5 under a year ago and forgot to purchase AppleCare. I'm wondering if it is too late to purchase AppleCare+ for my phone?

Maybe it's time to (re)familiarize yourself with the distinction between AppleCare+ (the topic of this thread) and standard AppleCare, followed be (re)reading the post you responded to.
Please note my first response in this conversation, in reply to the original poster:

It is too late to purchase AppleCare+. That must have been done within 30 days of purchase. You can still purchase AppleCare, however.
Also, please note that the reply you quoted me on was a reply to Peter Gillespie, to clarify to him that the AppleCare Protection Plan, not just AppleCare+, can be purchased for the iPhone.
Please let me know if this clarifies any confusion you may have had.

Applecare - too late to buy (ordered Mac online on 20th Feb 2009?)

I didn't know where to post this question, so option for this forum!!
I contacted my local Apple store today to find out if it was too late to buy and register Applecare for my Mac Pro I ordered online from Apple on 20th Feb (1 year and 1 day ago).
The member of staff referred my to the Apple Store, but when I phoned I realised they don't have staff answering telephones on a Sunday (this is the UK).
So, I didn't receive my machine until 25th Feb 2009, so am I too late to buy Applecare if I wanted to?
Thanks in advance
Matt

you can still buy applecare. you can do it while your mac is still covered by 1 year manufacturer's warranty (1 year)

I got busy over the new year and forgot to purchase Applecare for my iPhone. 30 days past purchase date is too late - right?

Thanks Peter. I thought about that and had discounted the idea but since I am only 30 minutes away from my A store, I think I'll give it a try. I can be charming specially when I wear clean jeans and a nice top. :-)

Forgot to switch to Point Banking after Elite, made a purchase; too late?

I know that it's never too late to switch to Point Banking, but I was wondering if there's any way to bank points from a certificate that was earned after achieving Elite status.
What happened was that I lost Elite status at the beginning of this year, so I was back to certificates, after having been on Banking for a number of years in a row. I achieved Elite status around October, but forgot to switch back to Banking. Picked up a PS4 GTA bundle and some other things on Black Friday, and then I received an e-mail today informing me that I had a certificate issued and waiting.
Is there any way to convert that certificate back into points and just bank them? I was eligible for banking before the purchase, so I'm hoping I can do that, but I understand if I can't.
Thank you!
*disclaimer* I am not now, nor have I ever been, an employee of Best Buy, Geek Squad, nor of any of their affiliate, parent, or subsidiary companies.

Hi cr_client,
Congrats on again reaching Elite status!
If points were converted into a certificate before you officially changed your certificate preference to BANK, then there may not be much we can do. Once a certificate has been issued, it cannot be cancelled and the points added back into the account. If you were to redeem the certificate and process a return or cancellation, then the certificates point value would repost to your account within 3 to 6 business days.
I would like to go over your My Best Buy account with you in a bit more detail to ensure that it is properly banking points, so I will be sending you a private message. To check your private messages, you will want to login to the forum and click on the little yellow envelope icon at the top of the page.

I was not given the option to purchase applecare + with iPhone 5.I tried calling Apple customer service, the automated process took my info but then came back and said too busy to help you now. How can I buy it now?

You should call Apple but you should get an email from Apple. I got one a few minutes ago and this is what they said about AppleCare+ :
Thank you for your recent iPhone 5 purchase at the Apple Store.
We would like to let you know that every iPhone comes with one year of hardware repair coverage through its limited warranty and up to 90 days of complimentary support. AppleCare+ for iPhone extends your coverage to two years from the original purchase date of your iPhone and adds up to two incidents of accidental damage coverage, each subject to a $49 service fee.
We noticed you weren't given the opportunity to add AppleCare+ to your iPhone. If you would like to extend your coverage for only $99, please reply to this email by September 21st.
After that date, if you would still like to purchase AppleCare+ within the first thirty days of receiving your iPhone, you can call AppleCare at 800-MY-IPHONE or visit an Apple Retail Store.
Thank you for shopping with Apple.
Sincerely,
Apple Online Store Team

A few months ago I purchased Snow Leopard, but realized too late that I already had Snow Leapord. What I need is Snow Lion upgrade. I did not open the software. Will they refund refund this or exchange it for the Snow Lion upgrade?

A few months ago I purchased Snow Leopard, but realized too late that I already had Snow Leapord. What I need is Snow Lion upgrade. I did not open the software. Will they refund refund this or exchange it for the Snow Lion upgrade? Thanks!

All Updates to Snow Leopard are gotten from Software Update or from the Apple download site.
There is no Snow "LION". there is Lion and now Mountain Lion buit both of those are Download Only from the Mac App Store. You need to have Snow Leopard 10.6.6, .7 or .8 to have the Mac Apple store link on your Mac.
To get Lion you need to call the Apple Store, 1-800-MYAPPLE, and order it. They will send you a download code to your Apple ID Email address so you can download it from the Mac Appl Store.
Oh and when you call them to order Lion ask about returning Snow Leopard.

Purchasing applecare warranty after purchasing macbook pro

soon I will be ordering a macbook pro via apple's educational discount online store
is it true that you can wait up to one year after purchasing a new mac to decide if you would like to add the applecare warranty?
if I decide to do this, would I still be able to purchase the applecare at the discounted educational price even though I am not buying it at the exact same time of purchase as the macbook pro?
are you not allowed to buy it if something goes wrong w/ the machine before you've even purchased applecare in the first year?
and if I can indeed to this, buy applecare up to a year later at educational pricing, how would I go about it?
thank you to anyone who can answer these questions

Also, if you wait until close to the one year period is up, be sure to register the applecare online before the year is up. i had problems once, i waited a little too long, and was able to get things taken care of through having my college bookstore write a special letter for me related to my purchase date so that i was able to add it on...
mostly i would recommend don't wait until exactly one year, but aim for a few weeks before the year is over. . .

Too late to buy warranty?

Just bought a Dell Studio MT Desktop Q8200 November 30 (3 days ago). I did not buy an extended warranty at the time. I wasn't aware of the arrangement Dell had w/Best Buy about warranties until today and I would like to buy a extended warranty now. Is it too late to do this?

Hey Kbp13 -
Congratulations on your new Dell desktop. I purchased one a few months ago in our stores and thus far I have been quite pleased.
The good news is that you do have 14 days from date of purchase to buy the Performance Service Plan. Keep in mind, the store may ask you to bring the tower in to have it inspected to ensure that it is in like new condition. Your best option is to contact the store prior to driving there and receive clarity from them.
I hope this helps!

Purchasing AppleCare+ in another country

Hi, does anyone know if I buy a iPhone 6 in the UK, could I purchase AppleCare + in the USA a couple of weeks later? I think the only stipulation I can see is that you have to let them inspect the phone, show proof of purchase & it has to be within 30 days of purchase - all this I can meet. I am hoping to receive my phone just before I fly to the USA on holiday, and thought I would take up this offer as it is about £17 cheaper in the USA. Thanks in advance!

No
you can only buy AppleCare + in the country of purchase of iPhone within 60 days and is ONLY valid in the country of purchase of iPhone

Way too late?

I have bought a MacBook + 2GB Ipod Nano on August 28, 2006 during the educational sale period. I had no idea about how to submit the mail-in rebate form until now. But it's way too late to claim my rebate at this point right? As the 45-day grace period has past long ago..... T_T (cry)...
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I'm afraid that's correct. In fact that promotion is now over. I suppose you could call AppleCare and plead your case.

Am I too late?

I accidentally clicked an album for purchase it is in the process of downloading (I paused it), but do not want to make that purchase. Am I too late?

For anyone in the same predicament in the future, I received a full refund from itunes after a quick email. Got a reply in less than an hour and the refund in less than 48 hours.

Am I too late for the hard drive recall replacement program?

I have one of the iMac Seagate 1tb drives that has potential to go wrong. I never sorted it out because I had no time machine in place etc. It seemed like a real hassle to have it all backed up at the apple store. However, time machine is now in place, and I've only just remembered about the replacement program. I know they extended it until April, but where would I stand now with regards to replacement? Simply, too late?
I'm almost full on my 1tb hard drive too. Can i also ask what you would do, take it in and get an extra internal drive? I like the speed of having all data internally, but should I just be using external drives once the 1tb internal drive is full?
Thanks.

the program runs through 4/12/13 or 3 years from the original date of purchase whichever is later. the following link takes you to the website that provides detailed information about the program:

HT2417 my iphone 4s voice messages repeatedly disappear and reappear at random. When they do reappear, I cannot listen to them. Sometimes, they eventually come through but usually too late to respond

I have an iphone 4s with Sprint. Ever since I switched from my iphone 3G with ATT, I have had incredible frustration with the voicemail system. Periodically, my voicemails on the new phone disappear; all messages old and new. This occurs out of the blue. Similarly they at times reappear, but the new messages have no content and all show up as 0.00minutes. Randomly, some messages retrieve their content and I can listen to them, often too late to respond to the caller. This is very annoying and almost questions why the voicemail exists at all. I have taken the phone to Sprint multiple times and performed countless resets with no recourse, hence they suggested contacting Apple. Has anyone else experienced this or know of a viable solution? iOS is up to date, phone only used in USA
Thanks
