HT1863 Does AppleCare cover screen damage?

Hi does anyone know if AppleCare covers screen damage?

ONLY Apple Care Plus covers accidental damage, which is how a broken/cracked screen is defined.
If you have apple care plus then you can take yours in, pay the service fee (I've seen $49 as the fee) and walk out with a replacement device (may or may not be refurbished). You are allowed 2 instances of accidental damage replacement.
If you don't have apple care plus then what you get is the out of wrranty replacement, the fee for that starts at 219 for a mini and 299+ for the newer ipads

    does applecare+  cover water damage for iphone 4s?

    Yes it seems so as the description says for up to 2 "incidents." Each incident is $49. More info here:

    Im still sorta thinking about it myself. You'd be basically spending $150 for incident #1 and $50 for incident #2, but during the next 2 years only.

  • Does AppleCare cover water damage to the iPhone?

    I want to find out if AppleCare covers water damage?

    No, it does not.  If you have AppleCare Plus, you can get a replacement for a small fee.  Otherwise, you will need an out of warranty replacement.

  • Does applecare cover screens

    i need to repair my screen its not cracked just unhooked from the back how much is it and does apple care cover it

    Hi i,
    If you're still under AppleCare warranty, and the problem was not caused by accident or misuse, it should be covered. Only Apple can say for sure, so bring it in to an Apple Store.

  • Does AppleCare+ cover water damage?

    I have AppleCare+ and I was wondering if it covers water damage. And if that is under the "Accidental Damage" and it will only cost $79 if it is water damaged.

    You would have to take it into the Apple Store and have them evaluate the damage to determine if it's eligible for a replacement under AppleCare+. If it is, you're right, the replacement would be $79.

    The standard 1-year Apple Care warranty only covers defects in materials and workmanship, not damage due to accidents.

    Does AppleCare cover a broken screen?

    Regular AppleCare will only cover it if the screen broke due to a manufacturing defect. AppleCare+ also covers two accidental damage incidents.

  • Does AppleCare cover my dimming iBook LCD screen?

    Hi - Simple question.
    Does AppleCare cover my dimming iBook LCD screen? I've had the iBook less than two years, and the screen seems about 50% (maybe a little more) as bright as it was when I bought it.
    Note, I also had to have the logic board replaced immediately after purchase, since it blew due to a heat issue. I understand the video module is on the logic board, too. I don't use it more than 1-5 hours, maybe two or three days a week, at a time (I have two other desktop Macs). The real, real problem is, it's my music workstation! Hard to edit notes in Logic Express when-I-can't-see-what-I'm-doing!
    Any thoughts or answers? It's getting to be a real bummer not being able to use the iBook as a portable laptop in any brightly lit area.
    Really, now. Sorry, I can't make the 10AM meeting, it's too bright in the meeting room with those overhead skylights... unless it's cloudy or raining...
    ~Robb

    It certainly should! My iBook screen is as bright as ever--I got it in March of 2004 and none of the updates had any effect on the brightness. So your iBook screen should not be getting dim from normal wear and tear--there is something definitely wrong. If it's not due to a preference setting or something like that, be sure and take it in for diagnosis and repair before your warranty runs out.
    Good luck!

  • Does Applecare cover Macbook adapter accidents??

    The part of my Macbook adapter that plugs into the computer fell into a cup of water (fail, I know). As a result, the adapter tip is fried I need a new one and before I start searching for cheaper ones on Amazon or eBay, I need to know: Does Applecare cover Macbook adapter accidents?? I've had my Macbook for less than three years and so I should still be covered.
    Applecare says it covers adapters, but I'm not sure about accidents. Should I go to the Genius bar and say it's an accident? I can't lie about the way the tip of the adapter is certainly fried. This is a different kind of accident. Someone, please help.

    Does Applecare cover Macbook adapter accidents?
    AppleCare doesn't cover accidental damage. Homeowner's insurance, a credit card, or third-party insurance might.
