Applecare+ for Verizon iPhone 4s

There is no provision to purchase Applecare + with a new pre-ordered iPhone 4s on the Verizon site. What provisions will Apple make for those who purchased their 4s this way?
The ordering process puts one in a catch-22: if you attempt to get a Family Plan through the Apple site, you are told that you must purchase your phone at the Apple Store. If you order the phone through Verizon, Applecare+ is not an offered option.
Will Apple make it possible for new Verizon iPhone 4s customers to get the Applecare+ coverage?

After speaking with the tech support person from Apple, I received an email which said:
"Dear Apple Customer,
Thank you for your recent iPhone purchase at the Apple Online 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.
Thank you for shopping with Apple.
Sincerely,
Apple Online Store Team"
So I replied to the email and now when I look at my iPhone 4S order, the AppleCare+ package is now included. Has anyone else gotten that email?

HT4528 applecare for verizon iphone

I just purchased an iphone through Verizon, and was wondering how to extend the warranty coverage.

Purchase AppleCare Plus...must be done within 30 days of original purchase...go to an Apple store. Apple has discontinued regular AppleCare for the iPhone.

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. :-)

No Applecare for the iPhone in the Netherlands (Holland)

I was wondering if anyone could tell me exactly why Apple does not provide Applecare for the iPhone in the Netherlands (Holland). I have had very great (actually amazing) help with Apple via Applecare for all their products I have purchased (past and present), yet when dealing with a recent iPhone problem, I have had terrible support from (the affiliates) of T-Mobile (the official mobile provider for the iPhone in the Netherlands). Hence, if I could, I would purchase Applecare for my iPhone in a split-second. But, as said, it isn't available here in Holland for some reason.
Does anyone know exactly why?
(P.S. Applecare employees in Holland are more than welcome to help answer this question!

Apple do not answer such questions here - and their staff wouldn't even do so at a personal level.
It will be as a result of a licencing agreement with the local carrier in all probability.

There was no way to order AppleCare for the iPhone 5 using the online AppleStore to have it activated automatically. Am I missing something?

There was no way to order AppleCare for the iPhone 5 using the online AppleStore to have it activated automatically. Am I missing something?

I must have missed the option to add AppleCare+ to my iPhone 5 pre-order, too. Fortunately, I was able to obtain confirmation from an Apple representative that AppleCare+ can still be added to a new iPhone 5 within 30 days of the device's ship date.
My iPhone 5 Ordering Situation:
Successfully submitted pre-order at 2:05am CST
Realized I did not add AppleCare+
Tried to add it as a separate product
Unable to add AppleCare+ after submiting pre-order
This Morning:
I just got off the phone with an Apple representative. He assured me that, once my iPhone 5 arrives on September 21, I will be able to: 1) call 1-800-MY-APPLE and have AppleCare+ added to my iPhone 5; 2) go into an Apple Retail Store and have AppleCare+ added to my iPhone 5. He said I would have thirty days from my device's ship date (September 21) to add AppleCare+ to it. He also recommended that, if I wanted to have AppleCare+ added at an Apple Retail Store, I should make an appointment as soon as possible. Because I was still concerned something might go wrong, the Apple representative emailed me a copy of my case number to use as a reference in case I have any issues obtaining AppleCare+ on September 21.
Caveats & More Information:
I ordered through the Apple Store app on my iPhone 4
I live in the United States
My carrier is AT&T
I have a case number and repeated assurances from an Apple representative
While your situation may differ from mine I do hope you're able to add AppleCare+ to your iPhone 5 once it arrives, either by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE or by making an appointment at your nearest Apple Retail Store.
Best Wishes,
Dylan

Applecare+ for their iPhone 5

Anyone able to order Applecare+ for their iPhone 5? I did not see it as an option.

AppleCare+ seems a better value to me than Asurion protection.
For 100, you get protection for two years - two incidents at a cost of $50 per incident. (No theft coverage)
Asurion is 9.99 per month, with a deductible of $199 - but includes theft coverage.
I never let someone have the opportunity to steal my phone, but I have dropped it in the toilet before. AppleCare+ is the coverage for me.

Have not warranty or applecare for new iphone 5. What do I do?

I recently purchased an Iphone 5 through AT&T in USA. However I need to cancel my service as I will be returning to Australia much ealier than expected. I did not purchase applecare for my iphone. And if I am correct I do not have a 1 year warranty on this phone with Apple since I purchased it through AT&T. So thus I have no warranty and can no longer purchase applecare since it has been more then 30 days of purchasing the phone.
So what can I do to safeguard my phone from technical issues (such as faulty hardware etc)? Or if its screws up is there nothing I can do?

First off, yes you still have the default Apple one year warranty, no matter who you bought it from. That warranty however, is NOT international, so you may not get any help in Australia with hardware issues no matter what.
If you are leaving the USA, then you will need to terminate your AT&T contract. Once you have paid your final bill and all early termination fees, and BEFORE you leave the USA, you can ask AT&T to unlock it for you.
see http://www.att.com/esupport/article.jsp?sid=KB414532&cv=820&_requestid=556824#fb id=tJgmtz6tKru and the link to the online form at the bottom to request the unlock.
They will email you when the unlock is ready, then restore in iTunes and you should get a screen at the end confirming it is now unlocked.
An option then would be to sell it here in the USA (an unlocked phone 5 should still be highly valuable to many folks), and then buy a new one when you get back home - then you will have a valid warranty there.

Applecare for the Iphone

Is the Applecare for $69 worth it for the phone. What exactly does it cover?

AppleCare Protection Plan for iPhone 4 (Available from Verizon Wireless Retail locations, Customer Service, Telesales, and vzw.com or directly from Apple) is $69.97. The coverage is for two years.

Note: The AppleCare Protection Plan must be purchased within the first year of iPad or two years of iPhone 4 ownership. The AppleCare Protection Plan starts from the purchase date, not the purchase date of AppleCare Protection.
AppleCare Protection Plan provides:

New Apple ID for Verizon iPhone?

Getting my new Verizon iPhone tomorrow, and trying to decide whether to create an additional Apple ID. I already have an iPad and my wife has an AT&T iPhone, both of which are set up and logged in with our original ID. The new phone will be my work phone, so I'm leaning toward setting up a new ID for it only. Question is, do I lose access to all my previously purchased songs, apps, etc being transferred to my new phone from my iTunes library? A little help would be great. Thanks in advance.

There is no benefit with doing this.
All 3rd party apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account used to download the apps with. Getting a new Apple ID or iTunes account will be more trouble than it is worth - whatever you think the worth with a new iTunes account will be. Constantly having to log in and out with each iTunes account with iTunes on your computer, etc.

A few days ago i ordered applecare for my iphone 5 at sprint. i bought it along with my iphone at the same time. is it supposed to ship at the same time or is the applecare gonna ship a few days later? i already got my iphone but no applecare ! i called

i got apple care + a few days ago with a iphone 5 at sprint. are they suppost to ship at the same time? i got my iphone first and i havnt gotten mt applecare+ yet. is it a package or just a email? i called people at sprint and some of them said it was just an email.

UPDATE: I did receive the following 2 items in the mail today regarding my Apple Care +:
1.) Two (2) purchase invoices for Apple Care + on our new iPhone 5s. One for my iPhone 5 and one for my wife's iPhone 5.
2.) Two (2) certificates (e.g. a contract) detailing the terms & conditions of the Apple Care + coverage on our iPhone 5s including all the phone numbers for each individual state in the USA that has exemptions/exceptions.
The only phone number provided for the award winning teams is the only they always provide:
1-800-APL-CARE (800-275-2273)

Best screen protector? Mophie juice pack? for Verizon iPhone

I just got the Verizon iPhone. Can people suggest
1) the best screen protector; the one that came with it is weird in that it won't actually attach to the screen at the edges
2) the juice pack from Mophie (case + built-in additional battery) - does it fit the Verizon iPhone also? Any problems with it?
thanks,
Mike

I'll reply since no one else has - I hate it when I get no replies!
For screen saver, I like Power Support's crystal film protector. It feels most like the actual touch screen when installed. Their anti-glare, which I have on my iPad, shows less fingerprints but is slightly more draggy to use, Zagg's Invisible Shield is also well-reviewed but it has a slight orange-peel look/feel and I like a screen saver to feel as much as possible like the actual screen in use Screen savers are essential, IMO. When I first got my phone in July, I took a week-long trip to San Diego without installing a screen saver and had a light scratch on my screen on my phone although it was in a case and I was careful with it.
As for the Mophie Juice Pack, I read on some tech blogs this morning that it's being released for V iPhone so check the Mophie website. As to whether you need a case that provides extra battery life, I'd use the phone without it for a few days first to see how well your battery lasts with your personal usage requirements. I think iPhone 4 has better battery life than most comparable smart phones but none of them are really great.

Armband for Verizon iPhone

Can anyone recommend a good armband for the Verizon iPhone for a girl?

Saw this armband the other day and thought it looks pretty cool. It also supposedly keeps your iphone dry from sweat. Also a good deal, two sleeves for $29.99.
