Can you buy Apple Care at any time?

I bought my MacBook Pro over 12 months ago and did not purchase Apple Care. My computer has started acting up, would I still be able to purchase it now?

  • Can you buy apple care on refurbished macs book pros?

    Can I buy Apple Care on refurbished MacBook Pros? What's the warranty return policy on them? Will it be in Like New Condition when I get it? This is the one I'm interested in. http://bit.ly/1MND29o

    Good afternoon JesseAlexander –
    MacBook Pros are such great, reliable products and purchasing it Geek Squad Certified just makes it a fantastic deal as well! In addition to other responsibilities, I spent a few years performing the Geek Squad Certification process on products returned to Best Buy and I know it very well.
    To address your first question, AppleCare is sold directly through Apple. I have read through the program Terms and Conditions and I am not able to find a solid answer. I think your best bet would be to contact Apple directly by calling 1-800-275-2273 or visiting their Apple Support website.
    We do offer a 15 day Return & Exchange Promise on our Geek Squad Certified products. In addition, we offer a One Year Limited Warranty on them as well. If you are interested in added protection against normal wear and tear or drops and spills, we also offer our own Geek Squad Protection Plan available on our refurbished products. Feel free to click on the links to learn more.
    Our Geek Squad Certified products typically begin as returned merchandise that customers changed their mind about. If a problem is discovered during the return, it is automatically disqualified. The returned devices are then given the once-over by store staff and turned over to specially-trained Agents who put them through a standardized process to make sure they are ready to be sold. We thoroughly test and inspect each refurbished device to make sure it works and looks as it did when it first came from the factory.
    Please let me know if you have any additional questions regarding our Geek Squad Certified products, MacBook Pros, Geek Squad, or Best Buy in general.
    Thanks for reaching out to us,

  • Can I buy apple care not at the apple store? (Target, etc?)

    Can I buy Apple Care if I purchase my iphone 5s at Target?

    Depends.  In many countries now, you cannot buy regular AppleCare for an iPhone.  You can buy AppleCare+ for one, but you can only get AppleCare+ through Apple.
    In the USA see http://store.apple.com/us/product/S4575LL/A/applecare-for-iphone  as in the USA, there no longer is AppleCare for iPhones, only AppleCare+ which is a different product (AppleCare+ combines extended warranty with Accidental Damage coverage).
    You can get AppleCare+ by phone or at an Apple Store, but must do so at the time of purchase or within 30 days of purchase.  If buying at an Apple Store, they will inspect the phone for pre-existing damage, and if over the phone, you must submit it to a remote diagnostic test.

  • Macbook bought in Asia, can i buy apple care on Amazon?

    hello mac lovers!
    i just got my new macbook. love it! i want to buy apple care and have found it online (amazon) for about 30% less the MRP. is its safe to do this and will it work? my computer is registered to me at my local address in thailand. i will get it shipped to my stateside address so the shipping is not an issue. Any thoughts please? thanks in advance. h20gurl

    Hi h20gurl and welcome to Apple Discussions!
    An AppleCare agreement purchased from Amazon (or any reliable reseller) should be valid in Thailand, since the agreement is international for portables such as your MacBook. It would also, of course, be valid in the USA. There is no need to have it shipped stateside if you don't want to.
    Once you get the AppleCare plan box, you will want to register it to your MacBook. You can do this by going to https://selfsolve.apple.com/Agreements.do and entering the required information. Remember that you must register the agreement with Apple before the MacBook is a year old.
    Best of luck.

    Hi adeyy,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    The AppleCare FAQs has some information that you might find helpful:

    Where can I purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan?
    Depending on the Apple product, the AppleCare Protection Plan is available at the Apple Online Store, Apple Retail Stores, and many Apple Authorized Resellers including many wireless service providers. Apple recommends that you purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan in your country of residence, because each AppleCare Protection Plan has terms and conditions specific to consumers in the country or region in which the plan is offered. Please see the AppleCare Protection Plan Terms and Conditions for complete details.

  • Can i buy apple care on my 8th month of owning!

    i am readin about alot of things happening to macs , can i purchase apple care after i have already purchased my macbook which is 8 months old!

    I would suggest L.A. Computer Company. I bought mine from them a few weeks before my first year ended. Saved a bunch over the Apple price.

  • Can I buy Apple care online?

    I would like to buy an Apple Care plan online. Can I get the number key without mailing it to me?

    No, you cannot get just the registration key - there were too many illegal dealings with keys being sold dozens of times.
    But, you can still buy it online - either from Apple or from a reseller such as Amazon or this one - both offer considerable savings:

    I have purchased from them as well as Provantage.com several times.

  • Can you transfer Apple Care from one device to another?

    I bought a new iPod touch for my daughter on July 7th and it was stolen two days ago. If our insurance covers it - can I transfer the Apple Care to the replacement or will I have to buy a new Apple Care?
    Thanks!!

    you shouldn't have to transfer the Apple Care because it is an insurance on the iPod
    No, it is not insurance.
    and since it will cover stolen iPods
    It does not cover replacement of a stolen iPod.
    if should be transfered automatically because, also in theory, it is the same iPod.
    There's no "theory" to it at all. It is the same iPod.
    AppleCare is purchased for a specific iPod. The AppleCare stays with that iPod.

  • Can i buy apple care after i bought my iphone

    Standard AppleCare = 1 year if you can find it.

  • Can you watch apple tv in any country?

    Before I go out any buy apple tv, I just want to check that there is not restrictions in terms of where I live. I currently live in Gibraltar and I can't get netflix or lovefilms, becasue they bloke the location.
    Is apple TV different?

    There are ways round it:
    http://www.apple.gi/?p=2443
    There exists the rather strange situation in certain places where the "Big Brothers" of Google, Apple, Microsoft et. al. do not think we are countries.
    In Gibraltar we cannot sign up to iTunes as a country, in Google Play, we cannot sign up or buy apps as a country.
    So we end up having to hack our various devices in order to get things to work which we would willingly pay for.
    However, I am glad to report that we are able to participate in UEFA.
