Are Genius Bar appointments logged to your apple I.D. or your serial number?

I took my MBP into the Genius Bar today and I completely messed up my description of what was up and the Genius gave me a quote for a part I know for a fact is functioning perfectly due to my lackluster synopsis. Anyway, my question is a simple yes/no question, please no answers offering alternate solutions. Just want to know whether Genius Bar appointments are logged on the system so they could see I've been in today if I wanted to go in tomorrow. If so are they linked to my Apple ID or MacBook serial number? If it's the ID it's fine as I can use my Dad's but if it's the serial number I can't really take it in again. Just a yes or no answer please. Thanks guys

Even though you have specifically asked, why are you worried about a second appointment with a different ID. The serial number is already registered to an applied if it was originally set up that way. You can check that in https://supportprofile.apple.com .

  • HT4623 Is this the most up to date article on up dating the iPhone - it there anything about the problems relating to the up date to OS 6 - my G3 no longer works and Apple seems to have gone to ground.  No Genius bar appointments available for a week!

    Is this the most up to date article on up-dating the iPhone OS - is there anything about the problems relating to the up-date to OS 6 - my G3 no longer works and Apple seems to have gone to ground.  No Genius bar appointments available for a week!

    iOS 7 devices need iTunes 11.1 or newer to sync.  Depending upon your computer and the OS it is running, you may not be able to upgrade to iTunes 11.1 based on the requirements for iTunes 11.1.  What computer and OS are you running your iTunes on?  From the iTunes download pages I see the requiorements are:
    Macintosh System Requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel Core processor
    OS X version 10.6.8 or later
    400MB of available disk space
    Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
    Windows System Requirements
    PC with a 1GHz Intel or AMD processor and 512MB of RAM
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, 32-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
    400MB of available disk space
    Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store

  • HT202695 I was understanding that I had 3 years after my initial warranty to schedule 1 on 1 or genius bar appointments. paying $99.00 per year. I was informed that my subsription  has expired ? I have been out of town, can I renew my subscription

    I was understanding that I had 3 years after my initial warranty to schedule 1 on 1 or genius bar appointments. paying $99.00 per year. I was informed that my subsription  has expired ? I have been out of town, can I renew my subscription for another term?

    One to One can be purchased with your computer if you buy directly from Apple. The cost for one year is $99 renewable twice. Genius Bar appointments are scheduled at no cost to you. Genius Bar appointments are not as lengthy as the personal training appointments. Genius Bar is usually for diagnosis of a hardware failure or software issue. GB is not usually a tutorial session.
    Hope that helps.

  • We're sorry, but this is a serial number for a product that has been replaced. Please check your information and re-enter your serial number. If your information is correct, you may need to contact us.

    i am going to buy iphone 5 32 gb from some before i bought i check the serial number of that iphone on apple web site to cross check but massage is appering that ......'

    can any one tell me what is that mean..... replace what ?

    In most cases, what you said is true...however, this is not always the case.  Take myself for example...
    1: I posted my phone online to sell
    2: Someone saw my serial number and called AppleCare to get a replacement phone
    3: An inferior AppleCare representative bypassed a component validation (check serial number to the device on hand) and approved the replacement under my AppleCare plan.
    4:  After noticing this (about 4 days after it happened) and  a trip to Apple and a call to AppleCare, all was resolved.  My phone is back to being covered under AppleCare+
    5:  I learned my lesson.
    So, as you can see, there is a chance that it can be something else.  Although, if the person selling the phone notices, it shouldn't take long to resolve it. Chances are that it is what you said.
    Hope this helps

  • When entering my phone serial number it shows "We're sorry, but this is a serial number for a product that has been replaced. Please check your information and re-enter your serial number. If your information is correct, you may need to contact us."

    Hi,
    I had purchased an iPhone 5 last month and got the OS updated to iOS 7, yesterday.
    The data cable was of very bad quality and when I took it to the retailer for replacement, they said that its not covered under the one year warranty.
    Secondly, I have also been experiencing network coverage issues with this phone. So, I decided to contact apple care through the web. When entering my serial number/IMEI it says, "We're sorry, but this is a serial number for a product that has been replaced. Please check your information and re-enter your serial number. If your information is correct, you may need to contact us."
    Does anybody have any idea what the reason behind this could be.
    - First time with iPhone and frustrated.

    If you purchased the iPhone from Apple or an authorized Apple reseller,
    contact them for assistance. If you purchased elsewhere, go back
    to that retailer and get them to give you a new iPhone or your money
    back.
    If you have checked the serial number carefully and re-entered it
    and that gave you the same error message, contact Apple if purchased
    from Apple or authorized retailer; otherwise you have been scammed
    and need to pursue the matter with the business you obtained the
    iPhone from.

    Sorry if my English isn't correct because of I'm Italian.
    You must switch on the lost mode on the app " Find my iPhone ".
    If you can see it on the map of this app, you will know where is your iPhone in that moment.
    REMEMBER: you can see your iPhone on the map of  " Find my iPhone"  only if it is online. Indeed you can't see your iPhone if it's offlined or switched of.

    Hello Renvin29,
    It sounds like you need to disable your iPhone remotely. I'm sorry to hear about your phone! The only way to do this with is Apple services is if you had Find my iPhone enabled. You have 2 options:
    You can use this article to put the phone into Lost Mode and preserve your data on it, but prevent access to it:
    iCloud: Use Lost Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2700
    Or you can just erase it remotely outright:
    iCloud: Erase your device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2701
    You should also take a look at this article for additional info on what to do about this situation:
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen

  • Hi, I buy iPhone 4s 16G white new today, but when I check serial number on apple support, that is invalid serial number, the serial number is not recognised.

    Hi, I buy iPhone 4s 16G white new today, but when I check serial number on apple support, that is invalid serial number, the serial number is not recognised. Then I check by using IMEI, "our records indicate that this product has been replaced. Please provide the serial number for your replacement product to find the support and warranty coverage information. What is replacement product really is? I am still confused. Is it recondition product?

    You purchased this iPhone today from where?

  • I am getting a message. What does it means "We're sorry, but this is a serial number for a product that has been replaced. Please check your information and re-enter your serial number. "

    I have tried getting service support information from Apple Support Service. When entered my serial no. got this
    I am getting a message."We're sorry, but this is a serial number for a product that has been replaced. Please check your information and re-enter your serial number. "
    What does it means???

    Well, when you purchase from a non-official source you run the risk of getting who knows what from wherever. It appears this phone was replaced under warranty at some point, but not returned to Apple for refurbishment. Thus, the SN is no longer valid for warranty & service. If you can return it and get your money back, I'd suggest you do so.
