Is apple care for iphone limited for the country you've purchased?

I believe it is international.
Each product has a different AppleCare Agreement and different conditions.
For the iPhone there are online several AppleCare manuals in different languages. May be they are just translations but may be each different language/country give different rules.
Anyway if you buy in a country and register Applecare in that country you recive your actual Manual and rules to follow. If you need assistence you can call your serivce number or start the request online. Apple will decide according to the problem and your location how to procede: you may go to a service center, or send the item to the adress Apple will provide to you, or Apple can send you parts to repair it yourselve.
This should not be limited to a country.

Worth getting apple care for the Retina model?

Is it worth geting apple care for the Retina models? have read they can be dodgy...
Since I will have a one year warrenty could I just skip out on apple care untill a month before the warrenty expires as the warrenty will cover all my needs?

From the sounds of it, the Retina 2012 model is so not worth it. I assume that the 2012 retina model is almost like a testing ground to build on future retina models so there will be a lot of bugs to sort out... i assume such bugs like program capabilities with retina will be sorted out by the time the 2013 model comes around?
Have to agree completely with that.
If I was in the market for a new Mac it certainly would not be one of the Retina models. Way to expense for what you get and then there are all the problems with it.
You know I've been doing my work and having fun on computer for over 20 years and never needed a screen like the Retina to actually get things done and make some money.

Apple care for iPhone

Hello,
I have bought an Iphone 4S in 2012 and an iPhone 5 in 2013 at the apple official website.
Moreover, I have bought some others apple iphone in some shop.
If I have an Apple Care for the iPhone, it will covered all my iPhone i bought or just one?
THe problem is that the iPhone 4S has a problem with the battery and I want to know if this is better to buy an Apple Care to repair the battery and have a guarantee extension for my others devices.
Best Regards

AppleCare warranty extension is only for the single device it was purchased for, it is not a blanket policy for other devices owned. Each device must have its own AppleCare coverage.
Depending on the age and condition of the iPhone 4s you may not be eligible to purchase AppleCare at this time. Take the iPhone to an Apple store genius bar and see if you are able to purchase the extended coverage, status of the warranty, repair/replacement recommendation of the technicians.

Apple Care+ for iPhone 4S (with Sprint)

I also have an Apple Care+ question that I cannot seem to find the answer to. The carrier will be Sprint, however I don't believe that matters for my question.
The Sprint representative that I was talking to the other day said that even though Apple Care + covers accidental damage (I have read the official product description) that it does not cover screen breakage. And that if you crack the glass screen you still have to either pay to have it replaced by a third party or purchase a new phone at the unsubsidized price. I found that comment interesting but I did not want to challenge her on the subject.
I do not see anything in the Terms and Conditions that excludes the breaking of the screen.
Did I miss that section in the Terms and Conditions? Is what she was telling me true? I see that as the #1 reason to purchase Apple Care+ for the unit.
Thanks,
Timm

If you want to return your iPhone, you must do so through whoever you purchased the iPhone from. If that was someone other than an Apple Store, either online or physical, then that dealer's return policies will apply; Apple will have nothing to say about it. You may have to talk to Sprint in regards to your contract with them. I believe you have 30 days to return your phone and cancel your contract, but I'm not certain about Sprint.
iTunes works fine under Windows on many, many systems, including Acer. Perhaps if you'll post details here, someone can help you sort things out. The thread you refer discusses an earlier version of iTunes and probably no longer applies even if that were the problem on your system, though I cannot say with certainty. Note that if you are running Windows 7 Starter on your netbook, that version is reported to have problems with a lot of software, not just iTunes. Many people have installed and run iTunes quite successfully, though.
they claim iTunes is a whole seperate brand from Apple computers they know nothing about
I don't know who you talked to, but either there was a misunderstanding - the statement would apply perhaps to the iTunes Store, but not to iTunes as a program - or that person was an idiot. iTunes, the program, is most definitely an Apple product and should be supported fully by the Apple Store technical staff.

Does the apple care for iphone 3gs cover water damage?

does the apple care + for iphone 3gs cover water damage?

No. Terms of the warranty call that "abuse".
You can hope, and try:
Turn it off, leave it off
Put it in a pile of "dessicant packs" (shipping packs found in hard disk boxes), possibly in a plastic bag (NOT rice -- that has rice-dust which gets into the unit)
Maybe try turning it on again in about 4-5 days
But this is really a desperation move, and I would not do it myself (although others say they have tried it).
Most likely you are paying for either a repair or a new unit.

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.

Apple Care+ for iPhone 5S & Apple Care Protection plan for MacBook

Hello,
I have a question regarding the apple care+ for iPhone and the Apple Care Protection plan for MacBook pro.
Since I will soon be in Hong Kong, I intend to buy the iPhone 5S due to great savings compared to my come country.
However, I have a question regarding the warranty which confuses me a bit.
1) If I buy the iPhone 5S and the Apple care+, does that mean I will be covered world wide?
I am from Denmark, and the applecare is currently not available from the Danish apple store. but does this imply that I will not be covered when I am in Denmark, in case of an incident?
If not, what can one do? Should one ship it to an apple repair somewhere in a European country that is covered by the Applecare protection plan for iPhone?
2) And the same question goes for the AppleCare Protection Plan for MacBook - will a MacBook with the protection plan bought from Hong Kong, and imported to Denmark, be covered world wide, or what limitations does it have?
I was trying to look through the terms and conditions on the Hong Kong website, however, it does seem rather intransparent some times.
3) Finally, I have a question about purchasing Apple equipment from the physical Apple store in Hong Kong. As I am a student, I would of course like to have the student prices - should there be any problems getting this price from the physical apple store, or can one only get it from online purchases? Is a valid student ID sufficient proof of student status?
Regards,
Michael

Start here:
Apple - Support - AppleCare+ - iPhone
Apple - Support - AppleCare
From each of those sites you should be able to discover what if any differences may prevail depending upon the country of purchase.
Apple's warranties may not be honored outside of the country where the equipment was purchased. I have no way of knowing whether hardware purchased in Hong Kong will have a warranty honored in Denmark.
If you have a valid student ID then the academic discount should be honored in the Hong Kong Apple Store.

Why my apple care for iphone doesn't transfer to my new phone after I claim a new one from apple store ?

2 days ago my iphone fall into a sink full of water. Yesterday I went to apple store and ask for apple care for iphone and they have it. So, I bought it and registered it right away since my iphone still be in a garentee and still not surpass one year usage. Then they told me that my iphone problem considered in a "physical damage case" which they have a policy for claiming a new iphone and pay some fee. After I got my new iphone, they said that all the information and phone data which is registered into apple system about the phone and the user and bla bla bla will transfer to my new iphone. Today, I just check my phone serial number in "support & coverage " column and I found that all the phone data in apple system is already transfered from the old one to the new one EXCEPT the data of apple care that I already registered before I claimed the new phone. Now, the question is " What can I do ? " and " will it be transferd to my new iphone or I have to buy a new apple care for my NEW PHONE That I got from their service "

Placing your iPhone in the toilet was the correct thing to do but you should have purchased an android phone instead. That would have solved these issues. :-)

I have an iphone 4s it cracked and i bought apple care for it but i want to get another phone

i bought an iphone 4s about 2 years ago, i bought apple care for it. it is deeply cracked and also cracked on the inside. can i change it for an iphone 6? how much would i have to pay? the same thing happened before, i went to the apple store and payed $50 for a new one. but i would like to now update it to a newer phone. thank you

Sell the refurbished phone that you got in exchange for your broken device and use the proceeds to buy an iPhone 6. Another alternative is Apple has a recycle program, and you can turn it in for some minor credit and use that towards the iPhone 6.

If I get apple care for my iphone 4...

Hi there, if I get apple care for my iphone 4 (next up to be discontinued) and it breaks within the 2 year coverage and after it is discontinued what will happen?
Will I be reimbursed, given a refurbished phone, a newer model etc. etc.

Apple replaces devices like for like. For example, they no longer sell iPhone 3GS's but if you had one serviced right now it would be replaced by the exact same model.

HT5691 Can i purchase apple care for iphone bought through verizon?

Can i purchase apple care for iphone bought through verizon? I want to upgarde thru verizon but don't want to pay a monthly fee with them for warranty. Verizon doesnt offer apple care on their website.

Incorrect sir.
After the 30 days YOU can still purchase Apple protection plan for $69, which extends your phone support just like AC+ and your hardware warranty just like AC+ it also gives you a a free battery replacement.
The only difference between AC+ and Apple protection plan is that AC+ covers accidental damage.
Customer who do not purchase AC+ or APP will then have to purchase a Pay-Per-Incident which is a $20 fee for each issue calling in on.
Pay-Per-Incidents or PPI's last for 30 days on the one issue that they were purchased on.
No, you cannot.
An iPhone in the USA is eligible for AppleCare+ and ONLY AppleCare+. AppleCare+ completely replaced AppleCare for iPhones when it was announced. Check Apples own warranty pages on the web site. You CANNOT buy AppleCare for an iPhone in the USA - ever. It is not offered for iPhones any longer.

HT4528 does apple care for iphone cover theft?

I am trying to decide whether to get apple care for new iphone or verizon insurance for my daughter. I am most worried about breakage, but she is traveling this summer so a little concerned about theft?
Also for breakage which plan is better?

AppleCare plus is an enhanced warranty which will extend the warranty and phone support to 2 years, cover manufacturing defects and allow for two out-of-warranty replacements due to breakage, water damge, etc. for a $49 deductible. It does not cover theft or loss.

Apple Care for iPhone 4 (and I live in Finland)

Hi! I have bought Apple care for iPhone 4 from eBay. I live in Finland and here Apple doesn´t sell Apple Care Protection Plan. I have address in US (Borderlinx) if it could help me. Can anybody halp me??? How could I registeration my Apple Care!!!

The AppleCare extended warranty for any Apple product is provided and honored by Apple and Apple only.
If your iPhone was purchased in your country and Apple does not provide/support the AppleCare extended warranty for the iPhone in your country, you can't register your iPhone for the AppleCare extended warranty based in another country.
If you know a place in Finland that will do this and work around laws and regulations for an extended warranty in a particular country, have the place you know in Finland get your iPhone registered for the AppleCare extended warranty for an iPhone sold in another county, which will be honored by Apple and Apple only in the country for an iPhone that was sold officially by Apple in that country.
You've wasted your money.
