Can I buy an Apple care for a second hand machine which has recently expired its service coverage

can I buy an Apple care for a second hand machine which has recently expired its service coverage

While I don't know about the second hand machine consideration, Applecare needs to be bought during the first year while standard warranty coverage is in effect. Once that expires, you can't buy Applecare for a system.

  • Where can I buy original apple battery for 13" Mid 2010 MBP?

    My battery life has decreased dramatically and I need a replacement battery. I don't want to go to an appe authorized service center to fix this problem. It's a relatively simple and cheap fix and apple authorised service center will ask for a lot of money.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    A battery replacement at an Apple Store or reseller costs $129 + labour, which is quite similar to the cost of buying a battery in the Internet.
    Anyway, you can buy the battery in the Internet. There are different websites, but I recommend you to buy it at iFixit > http://www.ifixit.com/MacBook-Parts/MacBook-Pro-13-Inch-Unibody-Battery/IF163-01 9

  • Can I still purchase Apple Care for my old iPhone 4?

    When I got my iPhone 4 nearly a year ago, I was told that I could purchase Apple Care at any point in the first year to extend the warranty an extra year, etc. I was planning to do that today (I couldn't take the financial hit before it became necessary at the year's end), but I see now that with the iPhone 4S has come AppleCare+, which much be pruchased within 30 days after your phone purchase. As I have an older model, I don't see how this should apply to me—30 days had already come and gone before they came out with this new policy! So, my question is this: How can I purchase the original Apple Care extenstion for my older phone?

    You cannot purchase the extended warranty after the end of the standard one year warranty. You might find other companies that offer limited forms of extended warranties such as those offered for used cars.

  • Can i still get apple care for my macbook pro 13 inch?

    I purchased the macbook pro 13 inch at the apple store on july of 2009. I opted to not get the apple care and now i kind of want it. Can i still get the apple care even if the macbook pro was purchased two years ago?

    I bought my macbook 15 with retina at mid of July. Can I buy a apple care for it in Nov or Dec?
    Yes. You can buy ApplCare extended warranty within one year from the date of purchase
    of the Mac. Once one year is over you will not be able to do so.
    If you buy the AppleCare early, you will get free tech support that goes with it.
    Best.

  • Can I purchase an Apple Care extended warranty for an iPad Air if I purchase it at Best Buy?

    CAn I buy an Apple Care extended warranty for an iPad Air if I purchase it at Best Buy?

    For me? Buying from best buy was my only option since the closest apple store is over an hour away. (and technically in another state)
    Also, when I bought my iPod the warranty that Best Buy offered was far more comprehensive than Apple Care with accidental damage protection for up to 3 years.
    And, when my iPad's charging port messed up, I took it into Best Buy and they swapped me out for a new one while at an Apple store I likely would have gotten a refurb.
    When I swapped out my iPod 4 for my iPod 5 I took it into best buy, got $70 towards the purchase of the new device by trading in the old one.
    Best Buy isn't perfect and not every store is a good one, but they are a good alternative or other option to explore for those buying devices.
    I think my biggest beef when buying my iPad and later iPod at Best Buy is when I bought my iPad I bought the screen protector and they wanted to charge me to apply it...and it kinda rankled for me to be plunking down over $600 dollars to have them want to charge me $15 for a screen protector install.

  • How can I register Apple care for my iPad if my ipad's warranty is not expire yet?

    Apple care for my iPad will be expire in November 14, 2013. I want to extend my iPad's warranty. I already bought Apple Care warranty but when I register online it said I already had a warranty for my iPad. The question is, how can I extend my iPad's warranty? 

    You can only buy apple care once to extend your original warranty from one year to two. You can't keep reupping it every year if I'm understanding that's what you're trying to do.
    After your device is two years old it's out of warranty and not eligible for any warranty from Apple (some retailers sell you up to 3 years of coverage, but you had to get that with the device)

  • If i buy an iPad from Amazon can I still purchase apple care?

    If i buy an iPad from Amazon can I still purchase apple care?

    How to get AppleCare+
    Purchase AppleCare+ together with your new iPad, and you'll be automatically registered in the plan. Add it to your shopping cart during the checkout process when you purchase your new iPad.
    Or buy it within 30 days of your iPad purchase:
    At an Apple Retail Store (if AppleCare+ is purchased separately from iPad, inspection of iPad and proof of purchase are required.)
    Or call (800) 275-2273 (requires you to run a remote diagnostic and provide proof of purchase)
