Can i bring into genius for repairs if i bought it from a reseller?

I am wanting to puchase the iMac 27".  I do qualify for education pricing, however, I see B&H photo offers no tax, free shipping, half off AppleCare, free Parallels for way cheaper than my student pricing.
My question is, I worry about if something is wrong with it.  I want to be able to bring in into an Apple Store and not have to ship back and forth to a reseller. 
I have read others posts that Apple tells the customer to deal directly with the reseller, but that does not make sense if you have Apple Care.
Can anyone help?  I need to order it by tomorrow.
Thank you for any help you have.

If you did not buy it from apple they will not replace it with a replacement unit they do make you wait for repair parts to come in
Sorry, but you should read the warranty - it does not state such a thing. Apple - like most manufacturers - allows themselves options and the options are that they will "repair or replace" - it is of no consequence where the unit was purchased. The machine is Apple and the warranty is by Apple. No matter where it was purchased, they will at first attempt to repair the problem; usually a minimum of three same repairs need to have been attempted before they may agree to replace the machine.

  • I sent my phone into Apple for repairs. Now I can't receive messages from the two days that it was in for repairs. Will I receive them ever?

    I sent my phone into Apple for repairs on my speakers. So I took my SIM card out, restored the phone, and did everything that needs to be done to send it back. Because of all of that I didn't have my phone for two days. Now that I have it back I haven't received any messages that were sent to my phone during those two days. I know that some of my friends sent messages, but it doesn't show them. Will they ever come to my phone?

    Did they also restore your original user account? Log out of Apple and see if yours is there to log in to.
    You'll need to post the actual error message, not what you think it said. I don't think I've ever seen an error that said I needed an application to install anything on my Mac.

    Why not?  If you are under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them.  Let Apple deal w/hardware problems.  If you mess up, your warranty will be voided!
    OOW:  For DIY instructions check out the following:

  • How can I update Camera raw for Photoshop CS5 to access images from Canon Rebel T4i?

    How can I update Camera Raw for Photoshop CS5 to access images from Canon Rebel T4i? The updated version of Camera Raw 7 says it only works with CS6. Outside of buying a new Photoshop, is there anything I can do?

    Buy Lightroom (much cheaper alternative to Photoshop) - does all your 'Photo-related' tasks. Full version of LightRoom 4 is $149/- - http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-lightroom.html
    LightRoom 4 supports ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) 7. Once processed with Lightroom, if you still need, you could take the photo in JPG or TIFF format into Photoshop CS5 for further processing.
    Another option is to use Canon Raw Codec that would've come with your camera's box to process the RAW images and then take them into Photoshop.

    How can i cancel my att contract for ipad2 that i bought it from online store to use it in europe?

    You don't have a contract with AT&T for an iPad. If you signed up for an AT&T data plan (only possible from the iPad itself, to the best of my knowledge) AT&T's iPad plan is a month-to-month and can be cancelled at any time through the same settings you used to sign up.

  • Can you fix my ipod, even though i never bought it from your shop?

    Can you fix my ipod, even though i never bought it from youe store?

    Yes, the Genius Bar at the Apple Store should normally service Apple products, regardless of where the product was purchased.  You can make a reservation (so you don't have to wait) through the web site

    The warranty for an iPod is international (that is not the case for an iPhone). Thus, you can have ti serviced/exchanged in India.

  • Macbook is slow; will it help to bring it in for repair?

    My macbook has been getting progressively slower over the 2 years I've had it. It's becoming unusable. I'm using only about 30% of my memory.
    I have called apple customer support and I did both of the things I was asked to do (delete system files and something else, I don't remember.) I was told that this was all they could do, at least over the phone.
    Do you think that the Genius Bar people would be able to speed it up?
    The nature of my school/work (CS major) is such that being without a laptop is a huge inconvenience. If it isn't going to help to send it in for repair, I'd rather just buy another computer... maybe a PC.
    Thanks for any advice/experiences you can share.

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the slowdown.
    Step 1
    Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
    Step 2
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

  • Sent iPhone 3g into apple for repair

    I sent my iphone 3g into apple for the display separating from the bezel and I just had some questions. This is what the status looks like:
    Step 1 - Request
    Product received (19-May-2010)
    Step 2 - Service
    Issue identified (20-May-2010)
    Step 3 - Return
    Product replacement pending (20-May-2010)
    My question is how long does it take for the product replacement pending take? And does that mean I am getting a new refurbished iphone? I called applecare to ask but the guy said nothing for half the time and said um a lot. So apparently he was kind of clueless if you ask me, so I was hoping someone here had some past experience that could help me out.
    Thank You

    Product replacement pending indicates your iPhone will be exchanged under warranty. An exchange under warranty can be a new or refurbished iPhone with no way to tell the difference. More than likely your exchange will ship sometime tomorrow.

    Hi There
    I am trying to log into ICloud for PC but every time I try it says cannot log into cause of server error.  However the status of the server is fine when I look into it more.  Why can't i get in?

    I got the same problem, too. But try a few things first.
    Update the version to 1.1.
    Login with full creditials, talking about [email protected]

    Good Luck!
