Can we buy AppleCare Protection Plan in stores?

Can we buy AppleCare Protection Plan in stores? Such as the Apple Store, Best Buy, Etc.. I am looking for the applecare for Ipod Touch.

Hello:
I suspect you can, but why not buy it from the on-line Apple store?

If i buy a sim-free iphone 5s in America, can i use it in China with a Chinese sim card?

i've bought a sim-free iphone 5s in apple store in America but i am worried that i cannot use it with a Chinese sim card. Can someone help me?
Thank you very much!

The iPhone is sold as "unlocked and contract-free" when purchasing that option from the Apple Store, though Apple's verbiage is using "unlocked" and "SIM-free" rather interchangeably:
The unlocked iPhone includes all the features of iPhone but without a wireless contract commitment. You can activate and use the unlocked iPhone on the supported GSM wireless network of your choice, such as AT&T or T-Mobile in the United States. The unlocked iPhone will not work with CDMA-based carriers, including Sprint and Verizon Wireless.
If you don’t want a multiyear service contract, or if you prefer to use a local carrier when traveling abroad, the unlocked iPhone is the best choice. If you choose T-Mobile, your iPhone comes with a T-Mobile SIM card already installed. You will need to contact T-Mobile or visit an Apple Retail Store to activate your iPhone.
Otherwise, the unlocked iPhone does not come with a micro-SIM card for iPhone 4s, or a nano-SIM card for iPhone 5c or iPhone 5s so you’ll need to get one from any supported GSM carrier worldwide. To start using your iPhone, simply insert the SIM card into the slot and turn on iPhone by pressing and holding the On/Off button for a few seconds. Then follow the onscreen instructions to set up your iPhone.
Purchasing an unlocked iPhone means you will not qualify for the lower iPhone price associated with a contract. The unlocked iPhone 5c model is A1532 (GSM). The unlocked iPhone 5s model is A1533 (GSM).
To help decide whether the locked or unlocked option is right for you, compare wireless service plans. Or call our iPhone Specialists at 1-800-MY-APPLE.
Be aware that if you purchase an iPhone in the US, that will be the only place you will get support from Apple should you need it. You will not get any support for a US-sold iPhone in China.
Regards.

Can I get Applecare Protection Plan even after the expiry of my base warranty of one year ?

I have just completed one year of my base warranty for my Macbook Pro 15'. I am thinking of going for Applecare Protection Plan however while checing online I realized that I can do that only when my base warranty is still in effect. Now as I have run out off that Can I still go for Applecare Protection Plan and is it really worth.

If your one year warranty has expired, then sorry you can't buy another 2 more years.
AppleCare certainly was worth it on my last MBP, it went in for a hard drive, optical drive replacement.
If you backup well, you should be able to take care of yourself.

I wish to get AppleCare Protection Plan and my Warranty expired a few days ago.

I got my iPod touch on 12th november 2011 as a prize in a Quiz Competetion. A few days ago I called apple customer support and they say my warranty is expired... According to them, the warranty started in February 2011 and has expired. I wish to get AppleCare Protection Plan and a customer support executive told me over the phone that I would get it but I got no follow up call. My Apple Support /case number is 292089289
I have got a dead pixel on my iPod and I wish to get it replaced. I hope something can be done.
Thanking You

Check your warranty here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do . If it truly as expired, there is nothing you can do ablut it. You ca no longer extend the warranty. Otherwise people would wait to see if their iPod needed service beforing buying the coverage.

AppleCare Protection Plan for iPhone

The Protection Plan costs $69.00 for a second year of coverage and I do not know if I should buy it. I have heard that the battery in the iPhone needs to be replaced yearly, is this true? I have heard that to replace a battery, it will cost around $85 and if this is true, isn't it better to get the AppleCare package for $69?
Thanks

Ansuz82,
The iPhone batteries page says designed to retain 80% at this link in the right hand side bar:
http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html
The quote from that page is:
A properly maintained iPhone battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original capacity at 400 full charge and discharge cycles. You may choose to replace your battery when it no longer holds sufficient charge to meet your needs.
The page you link to says it will be replaced by Apple if it drops to below 50% capacity while covered. The actual quote is:
Your one-year warranty includes replacement coverage for a defective battery. You can extend your coverage to two years from the date of your iPhone purchase with the AppleCare Protection Plan for iPhone. During the plan’s coverage period, Apple will replace the battery if it drops below 50% of its original capacity. If it is out of warranty, Apple offers a battery replacement for $79, plus $6.95 shipping, subject to local tax. Apple disposes of your battery in an environmentally friendly manner.
In other word it should retain 80% of its capacity at least after 400 full charge cycles. If your battery should drop below 50% capacity while covered by warranty or AppleCare Protection Plan, it will be replaced by Apple. There isn't a way to read the number of cycles off the battery that I am aware of.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

Can someone explain AppleCare Protection Plan?

Phone comes with up to two years of technical support during the term of your AT&T wireless contract. AppleCare Protection Plan benefits are in addition to any legal rights provided by consumer protection laws in your jurisdiction.
What are the additional services that we don't get already?

Yes, AMEX takes whatever warranty the manufacturer offers and just extends it for a year. If Apple would replace the battery, AMEX will pay for it to be replaced. What happens is you have it replaced, they reimburse you.
AMEX will follow the same protocol on battery replacement that Apple does. If Apple wouldn't deem it to be replaced, neither will AMEX. And vice versa.
On a side note, I can't understand why everyone seems so worried about their battery. Have you had problems with it? Has anyone needed one replaced yet? Do you own an iPod too? Have you ever had to replace it's battery? Additionally, do you really think Apple is anticipating that your battery will go dead if they are offering AppleCare for $69? No, AppleCare is designed solely as a money maker for them, just like any 'service warranty' that Best Buy and others offer. They know darn well you won't need it and that's where they make their money. It's feeding into people's fears. Moreover, if AMEX and other credit card companies offer this service for free for you using their card, then that's double assurance that you're probably not going to need to use the warranty.

I have already bought a mac without any apple protection plan. Now, is it still possible to buy a protection plan for it?

Lost Applecare protection plan?

Hey guys,
Almost a year ago, my brother bought my Macbook Pro, and picked up an AppleCare Protection Plan a few days later. I apparently lost the documentation before I was able to register, and just now my MacBook Pro is starting to act up.
1) First of all, is it even possible to purchase AppleCare without giving my Serial Number or anything else that ties it to my computer?
2) Am I basically screwed out of my AppleCare since it was bought separately at a date I'm not sure about, never registered, and I can't find the documentation?
This is really important to me, and my warranty ends the end of the 5th, so any help at all would be appreciated.
Thanks,
- Keith

Nope it's not registered, which is what I thought. But is it really possible to buy AppleCare without giving any identifiable information as to what it protects?
An AppleCare Protection Plan for a MacBook (or iPod or iPhone or Mac Pro tower or display) is a stand alone product. It is sold in many places just like any box of software. It's up to you to open the box and enroll the product using the serial number. When you purchase an APP you do not need to provide a serial number. The purchase is not the transaction that enrolls the plan for your product. If you never used the enrollment number in your box to apply to the serial number of your product over the phone (or online or by mailing in the enrollment card), then your product can't be covered.
If you buy your computer at an Apple retail store and purchase an APP at the same time then they will ask you for your contact information when you pay and they can enroll it for you right then and there. But, if the product and the APP are purchased separately, they're not tied together until you go through the enrollment step.
If you have a receipt for the Mac and a receipt for the purchase of the AppleCare Protection Plan, you can call AppleCare Support (in the US at 1-800-APL-CARE), there will be an option to talk to someone about AppleCare itself rather than "technical support". A person there can probably contact an AppleCare specialist you can fax your receipts and the enrollment number and they MAY be able to enroll your computer. If you don't have both receipts and the enrollment number, they won't be able to help you.
If you really don't have the original AppleCare Protection Plan information, I'd suggest you buy a second copy and enroll it with the new number. If you find your original plan's information later, you can resell it to someone else who can use the enrollment number to apply to their Mac's serial number.

AppleCare Protection Plan is it worth it?

Hi Mac lovers!
Second question for this forum....As i said before i just purchased 3 weeks ago my new and first Macbook Pro, the sales agent offered the apple care protection plan for $349 (3 year coverage) at the beginning i found it a little expensive but the more i think i wondering....is it worth it?
Please help me with this
also he said something if i take it abroad...it wouldnt work? or i dont get coverage plan, which one is it? i didnt get that lol

AppleCare coverage for Macs is worldwide, you can take it in for service anywhere (applies to the standard one year warranty and the AppleCare Protection Plan).
Is it worth it? Depends! If you get to the end of three years and have no problems with your Mac, then perhaps it wasn't worth it. If it goes belly up 367 days after you buy it, it's absolutely worth it.
Personally, I don't have it. My MBP will be three years old in May of this year, no problems to date (except the battery, which was a known issue for which Apple extended the original warranty to two years for my model). My wife's 12" PowerBook is now 6 years old, and still runs fine (only needing a replacement battery about 2 years ago, that's normal wear); it was in constant use until this Christmas when I got her a new unibody MB.
Keep in mind that you can purchase AppleCare anytime during the original one year period, so if you decide against for now but have any issues with your MBP during the year, you can change your mind.

I want to buy AppleCare Protection from Ebay, model #?

I want to save money and buy my protection plan through Ebay, but I see where they have model numbers for the protection plan, I have a brand new Imac so does it matter what AppleCare Protection Plan I buy from Ebay............... Do certain model number protection plans only give you the extended warranty on certain Imacs? Thanks for any help!
David

I wouldn't fool around with Applecare from eBay. (I saved a lot of money buying it from eBay, and it worked out. But it isn't worth the anxiety.) Doesn't look like much of a saving from the list price right now and it might be risky. AFAIK, iMac Applecare is all the same. Apple may be tightening up on eBay Applecare.
Check these out. They may be beating any of the top rated sellers' prices on eBay.

Does Installinig 3rd party RAM void warranty and AppleCare Protection Plan?

I accidently bought my upgraded RAM seperately (512 MB) and want to upgrade it in my Mac Mini, but it's Kingston RAM. Will this void my warranty and AppleCare Protection Plan by having it inside the system?
Will Apple stores install it?
Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Welcome to the Apple discussions.
Having a different ram, by itself won't invalidate your warranty. Note if it's Kingston's valueram, it may or may not work if you have a G4 mini. Haven't heard how the Intel-mini's are doing with various manufacturers RAM, although I suspect the Intel-mini has a broader range of memory it can use.
Apple stores will only install RAM they sell. If you contact one of the AASP's, they should be able to install the RAM. CompUSA, for example, is one AASP. You can find other ones in the Denver area using the locator at http://www.apple.com/buy/locator/service.html

Does anyone know the difference between the Applecare Warranty for the Macbook Pro and the Applecare Protection Plan Auto Enroll 607-8192-B APP FOR MacBook

Does anyone know the difference between the Applecare Warranty for the Macbook Pro and the Applecare Protection Plan Auto Enroll 607-8192-B APP FOR MacBook

AFAIK, the difference is that the auto-enroll occurs automatically when you purchase the device and you will have to disburse the cost right there and then. Whereas the other comes in a box, can be purchased separately later and you must manually enroll your device into the system to activate the additional protection. This must occur before the base one year warranty is over.
So, if you don't want to pay up at the moment you buy the computer, you can wait up to say 11 months and buy the AppleCare warranty extension later. Just be sure to complete the enrollment BEFORE the base warranty is over, else Apple will not honor the extension (all in the fine print). This applies to all devices that offer an AppleCare option: notebooks, desktops, iStuff, etc.

AppleCare Protection Plan missing!?

Hi,
Recently, I noticed that my battery was deteriorating so I decided to check its status, which showed "Service Battery". Now, because I bought the AppleCare Protection Plan at the time that I bought my Macbook Pro (June 2011), I decided to go to an authorized Apple retailer place to have my MBP fixed. But when I got there, they checked my warranty status and they told me that I don't have the AppleCare Plan and the normal warranty has expired, which is impossible because I did buy the Plan.
I don't have the receipt as proof, because my aunt bought the MBP for me in the US when she was there. What I do have for proof though are the screenshots that I sent her, which included all the specific detail regarding the features of the MBP that I wanted to have:
http://cl.ly/image/1r2P07021i0B
http://cl.ly/image/2b2R002W3V0w
http://cl.ly/image/1L1R460B282t
http://cl.ly/image/2H0c0W010x09
The price of $2667.95 was the exact amount that she paid, so that means that the AppleCare Plan was included.
What do you suggest I do?

Call Apple: 1-800-692-7753.
EDIT: Leroy beat me to the punch, but either number will work.

If I buy AppleCare Protection Plan in Japan or Canada,can I use it in China?
