Can I buy an Applecare abroad?

I purchased a MBP when I've visited the U.S.A. for a while, but now I've returned to my country, Korea.
Here is the thing: do an American MBP and a Korean Applecare work together? or do I have to call my friend who lives in America, and ask her to get an Applecare and e-mail me the contract number on the paper?
I've believed that MBPs are all same anywhere but I've found that each MBP has a different model code: for America, it's MA896LL/A, by the way, for Korea, it's MA896LL/KH. Would it matter when I register the Applecare with my MBP?

if you can get applecare in korea, do that.
it shouldn't matter, as far as i know, if you bought a MBP in the U.S. and bought applecare in your home country.
of course, someone might correct me if i'm wrong.

  • Can I buy multiple AppleCare  services for the same device?

    I'm buying an IPhone here in US, but I'm going to Brazil for a long time.
    Must I buy AppleCare in Brazil in order to have warranty insurance there? Is it possible to buy AppleCare+ in US and also in Brazil, for the same IPhone?

    As said in another of your posts, the warranty is only valid in the US on a US purchased iPhone...you cannot purchase AppleCare for it in Brazil.  You can only buy AppleCare+ warranty extension in the US since that is the country of origin of the iPhone.
    To get warranty coverage in Brazil, you need to purchase the iPhone in Brazil.

  • Does is matter where you buy the applecare?

    Hello, I have a 13" MacbookPro which I bought from the Israeli reseller (iDigital).
    my warranty is about to end in a week and I want to buy the applecare.
    The issue is that in my country (Israel) this plan cost about 390$ (140$ more than buying it on the apple online store). Can I buy the applecare from this website or from another country?
    Is the local reseller must accept it?
    Thanks in advanced

    No it doesn't matter but will Apple USA ship to Israel. Because to actualy use the Apple Care extended warranty you have to recieve the box it comes in and use a number on a card to register the Apple care to the Mac computer it is going to be used with.
    If you ordered it today and it shipped tomorrow, which it won't because it is Sunday, would you recieve it within a week? I doubt it.
    So go out on Monday to your local Apple store and buy it locally.

  • I bought an iphone 5 about 4 months ago and got applecare. yesterday I had to get on a different plan within the same company so i traded in my phone and got a new iphone 5. can i transfer my applecare to this new phone or would I have to buy it again?

    I bought a 16gb iphone 5 about 3 months ago and got applecare. yesterday I had to get on a different plan within the same company so i traded in my phone and got a new 32gb iphone 5. can i transfer my applecare to this new phone or would I have to buy it again?

    As this is a WW forum with different AppleCrare offerings you need to specify which Country
    as in North America has AppleCare+ and everywhere else AppleCare ,very different products
    So to avoid incorrect guidance suggest you specify Country

  • Buying used Macbook Pro w/2 mths warranty left...can I extend w/Applecare?

    I'm looking at buying a used Macbook Pro. Warranty runs out in June. I am wondering if I can purchase Applecare as long as I do it before June & if I can, what I need/how I go about doing so? Thanks.

    I strongly advise AGAINST buying Apple Care on ebay or anywhere else besides an apple authorized reseller or official apple store.
    As long as you buy the AppleCare for MacBook Pro package it will be usable with your machine.
    All codes are listen in apple's database, if you try to register an iPod applecare with a macbook pro it will just tell you that it failed. A lot of frauds on ebay, the packaging and codes are just made up and/or already used once before and therefore unusable.
    It costs a bit but applecare is definitely worth it.

  • How can I buy applecare plus, if I buy "refurbished ipad" in apple oline store? I cannot find the way to select applecare plus before checkout.

    How can I buy applecare plus, if I buy "refurbished ipad" in apple oline store? I cannot find the way to select applecare plus before checkout.

    Add it to your cart.  Then, when you're on the cart screen, scroll down and you'll see a choice for AppleCare+ with an Add To Cart button!
    I also called the Apple Store and their agents confirmed that it does apply to the refurbished models!

  • I was not given the option to purchase applecare + with iPhone 5.I tried calling Apple customer service, the automated process took my info but then came back and said too busy to help you now. How can I buy it now?

    You should call Apple but you should get an email from Apple. I got one a few minutes ago and this is what they said about AppleCare+ :
    Thank you for your recent iPhone 5 purchase at the Apple 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 by September 21st.
    After that date, if you would still like to purchase AppleCare+ within the first thirty days of receiving your iPhone, you can call AppleCare at 800-MY-IPHONE or visit an Apple Retail Store.
    Thank you for shopping with Apple.
    Sincerely,
    Apple Online Store Team

    You can if you do not live in Florida, apparently. I called this morning to add AppleCare+ and after giving my info (explaining that the Apple Store is 50 miles (at least) from me, I was going strong until she realized that I live in Florida. Apparently, some moron in the FL State Legislature got a bill passed to "protect" senior citizens and you can't buy things like AppleCare+ online or over the phone!! You have to do it in person. Seriously?!? I'm a senior citizen and I knew exactly what I was trying to buy.........she even had to read the description even though I told her I knew all about AppleCare+. As my husband said, "If you're smart enough to go online and pre-order, and set up an iPad, surely you are capable of making a warranty purchase!!!!!!
    I even tried calling the Verizon store here, since I bought a VZ version, and even they can't sell it!! Going to Orlando from the beach during Spring Break and Snowbird Season will take up most of a day.......all to spend $99. I may just skip it and keep my fingers crossed that I never need it in a year from now.

  • Can i buy applecare after 30 days or purchased

    i buy iphone 5s but i want buy apple care ... but its been more than 30day of purchased can  i buy it now ?

    If Apple only sells AppleCare+ in your country, then no, sorry, it's too late now. If Apple still sells the older AppleCare plan that lacks accidental-damage coverage, then you should be able to buy coverage until one year after you purchased the iPhone.
    Regards.

  • Where can I buy a 5g replacement battery?

    My battery only lasts about 8 hours on the suggested settings from Apple. I sent it in and they sent it back with nothing in the box, just the ipod. Incidentally they wiped all my videos and music and put on a whole new set of stuff. I called technical support and they said it was sent back because the battery is a software issue and they will no longer discuss any battery issues with me until I purchase Applecare. I called back and spoke to someone else and they again said 'I will not discuss this' and hung up. I don't really want to have to bow to purchasing Applecare from them, so where can I buy a replacement battery for my iPod please?

    I did send it in and it was sent back and I was told it wasn't repaired because batteries are not covered by the warranty, only applecare. Now whenever I called up and give the serial number, they end the call citing the same reason.

  • 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.
