Apple Care Extended Plan

Hello all,
I'm sorry that this may not be in the correct forum, but I couldn't find a forum for "general questions"... so again, forgive me.
I currently have an extended plan through the retail store where I purchased my MBP (the store is Fry's Electronics in California)... and it was $349 for 5 years.
I'm thinking about returning that plan (I have another week which I could do that ) and purchasing an extended Apple Care plan.
However, that plan is the same price for only three years. The advantage is the tech support over the phone.
I'm looking for advice from those who have/still have the Apple Pro Plan?
Thanks, in advance!

Well there are some things to consider.
Do you think you will hang on to the Mac for 5 years?
Are you not to versed with Macs?
Does Apple offer a loaner you feel you might need in the event of a problem? NO
I am hopeful this will help you in your decision.

Transferring Apple Care Extended Protection Plan

I bought my friends iphone 3gs and she does not have the iphone box or the apple care extended protection plan box anymore but i am able to see online that it is still in warranty but it is in her name. How can I transfer the iphone into my name without the boxes and apple care registration number?

AppleCare is a warranty extension and covers manufacturing defects. It is not insurance and will not cover user-caused damage, such as scratching or cracking of the glass (unless the crack was determined to be due to a defect in manufacturing, not the iPad being dropped or impacted).
You can find more information including lists to Frequently Asked Questions and the precise Terms and Conditions here:

What is the difference between apple care protection plan and apple care

What is the difference between apple care protection plan and apple care +

apple care protection plan
That is the extended warranty (total of 3 years including the standard warranty for the first year) for any Mac computer.
apple care +
That is the extended warranty (total of 2 years including the standard warranty for the first year) for any iDevice (iPad, iPhone, etc).
For either, the standard warranty is usually referred to as hardware warranty (not Applecare); see an example for the warranty for an iMac:

whereas the extended Applecare is referred to as that:

Apple care protection plan for macbook pro with retina display

hi!!! i recently purchased macbook pro with retina display. Im curious about the apple care protection plan to extend the warranty of my macbook. I would just like to ask if the apple care protection plan includes battery replacement w/in the next 2 yrs?

it is like car insurance. You purchase it hoping to never need it. But thank your lucky stars for having it after the sheet metal goes CRUNCH!
BTW, AC needs to be activated while the base warranty is in effect. This means you can wait till the last month or so and avoid having to plonk all the cash up front.

Colorware for nano voids your Apple Care Protection Plan

I just wanted every one to know if you purchase a Nano from Apple and then go
to ColorWare to get it colored, you void your Apple Care Protection Plan,which
extends your coverage for and additional 2years compared to ColorWare extended 1year.
I was just about 2 send my Nano off,until i got this info.
This is to bad,cause i really like the colors,but i already paid for the Apple Care Plan.

Apple care protection plan Q

Okay..I have that 1 year apple care protection plan that came with the ipod (the warranty)...I'm curious, what would they do in a case where my screen does not respond to being touched, and doesn't do anything...Would they replace it w/ a nw G1 or G2 ipod touch or what?

iPods come with a one year warranty.
If it needs repair or a new battery, it's free within the 1st 6 months. 6 months to a year, it's ~$59 for shipping.
Incidentally, the Applecare Protection Plan for the touch is $59 and extends the warranty to 2 years. This also covers shipping costs.

If i have apple care protection plan does it cover cracked screens?

if i have the apple care protection plan does it cover a cracked screen

No. The AppleCare extended warranty only doubles to time to a total of two years and extends the time of free telephone support. It still excludes accidental damage like what cases a cracked screen.

Activating my macbook pro 13" Apple Care protection plan

I purchased my macbook pro 13" in February 2011 from JBHIFI. I have not been using my laptop much and only recently opened up the original box for the laptop and found the apple care protection plan I had purchased with it, however not activated.
And so, I've tried activating it online providing registration & serial numbers, however it says the following when I try and activate it;
"We apologize for any inconvenience, but registration for this product requires additional documentation. Please submit your proof of purchasefor review by Apple. If your registration is accepted, your product will be covered."
- I click submit your proof of purchase
- which then asks me "Please provide your mailing address and describe the reason for your submission."
After that it then asks me to provide the following information...
Gather your sales receipt (with the receipt number, product description, original date of purchase, and reseller details).
Gather the documentation that includes the agreement number for your AppleCare product, if applicable.
Tell us how you want to send your proof of purchase.
The problem is, i NO longer have the receipt, and so can not pass this stage. Why is the registration process being difficult for me?
If it helps, I tried registering over and over, not realising I had been pressing 1 key wrong (about 4 times).
Help would be appreciated, thanks.

ah... I'll have to wait till tomorrow... they are closed today.

My MacBook Air is not being listed under the My Products tab after adding the Apple Care Protection Plan

I purchased my MacBook Air from US in December 2013, my company paid for it, so it got listed under their account earlier. So I asked them to remove it from there account and then I added it back to my profile in January 2014. Then it was listed under My Products tab in the My Support Profile page. Later I bought Apple Care Protection Plan for this MBA, and registered that plan with my MBA's serial number and soon after that, MBA vanished from My Products. I thought it might take some time for it to get listed back again after adding the protection plan, but it didn't appeared for quite a long time and so now I am opening this support ticket.
Now whenever I try to add my MBA again by clicking Register New Product, I am getting "According to our records, this serial number is registered to another Apple ID. If you have more than one Apple ID, log in to My Support Profile with that Apple ID to see your other registered products. Not sure if you have another Apple ID?" How can I get my MBA back into my profile?

AppleCare does not cover accidental damage, but try taking it to an Apple Store and see what they say!

I use Pro Logic 9 and see that to upgrade to Pro Logic X I need to buy the full package again. Does apple offer special conditions for their Apple clients ? Are users of apple care protection plan better served ?

I use Pro Logic 9.1.8. and see that to upgrade to Pro Logic X I need to buy the full package again. Does apple offer special conditions for their Apple clients ? Are users of apple care protection plan better served ?

Old saying applies here most of the time......
"If it ain't broken, don't fix it"
I choose to use LP9 with Snow Leopard myself (10.6.8 and 9.1.6) for most of my commercial work simply because I find that combo very stable and provides the best overall performance for my setups here... but I am also using LPX with Mavericks as part of my client support and that works fine too although with a drop in performance due to the heavier demands made on the hardware by the newer OS X and LPX graphic routines for example..

Explain me about Apple care protection plan validity and coverage in india

Explain me about Apple care protection plan validity and coverage in india

From what I have read in the past, because India has no formal Apple stores and relies on a re-seller system that hardly justifies the name, getting warranty service is difficult. Those who sell Apple products tend only to service the products they have sold. If you import a Mac, for example, the value of the international warranty appears to be at the whim of these re-sellers and I have seen many examples where they simply delay any service almost indefinitely. All you can do is make a nuisance of yourself with Apple's head office and hope they will put pressure on these errant sellers.
The problem, it appears, is that the Indian government will not allow foreign companies to hold a controlling interest (or more than 50 %) of the shares ... as a result, I read, Apple will not open their own stores.

UPC rebate help/apple care protection plan

I'm confused as to which UPC they want. It's the one with the serial/part numbers right?
There are like 3 or 4 labels on my box.
And on my Ipod, do they want me to cut out the little tiny UPC label to the Ipod box? (i could only find a shipping label on the actual cardboard box that it came in.)
All these random labels are confusing me.
Also, with the apple care protection plan, it came with a CD. do i need to install that onto my computer, or is it just a back up cd?
help would be appreciated!

called the apple store and figured it out.
thanks.
