MacBook Pro 13" guts completely replaced, warranty extension?

My MB Pro 13" has had its entire guts replaced once, meaning the logic board etc are all different from what originally shipped with the computer, and are a couple of months newer. I'm pretty sure this is supposed to extend one's warranty, as my hardware is technically different, but I have not received an extension? How does one go about receiving one?

Boris,
When service is performed on your machine, Apple offers a 90-day limited warranty on the entire machine after the service is completed. If the remainder of your one-year limited warranty is greater, you would still be entitled to that. If you have the AppleCare Protection Plan on the machine, then it would still be covered by that if the remainder on that is greater.

    There is the standard one year warranty, then you can purchase the additional warranty called AppleCare. Apple - Support - AppleCare.

  • Macbook pro late 2011, completely messed up, everything I click it brings up beachball very slow, blue ray and hd unwatchable as it jerks. genius bar app didnt help at all, very disappointed, can some1 help me?

    Macbook pro late 2011, completely messed up, a macbook pro of this year should not be operating like this, everything I click it brings up beachball very slow, blue ray and hd unwatchable as it jerks. genius bar app didnt help at all, very disappointed, can some1 help me?

    You have a hardware problem. It is probably the hard drive is either to full, not enough free space, or it is starting to fail.
    If you have an external drive connec that to the system and use the Recovery HD, Command + r keys at startup, to install a clean fresh copy of OS X Lion on the external then run the system from that. It will be slower but if you don't get the beachball then that is the sign your internal drive is on its way out or is filled up with files and not enough free space.

  • My Macbook Pro is still under limited warranty. Is it possible to upgrade my pro to retina display by going in to the store?

    My Macbook Pro is still under limited warranty. Is it possible to upgrade my pro to retina display by going in to the store?

    You can only exchange or upgrade your macbook pro for a retina macbook if you are within the 14 days purchase time frame. After the 14th day, you are no longer eligible for an exchange or any upgrade but only for free repairs.
    Limited warranty doesn’t mean you would be eligible for an exchange or an upgrade, but its a time period in which your existing macbook hardware and software issues are rectified free of cost.
    Hope this helps.....

  • MacBook Pro shutting off completely when in sleep/ standby

    Hello! I have posted this on the end of another thread with the same issue, but that thread was from a few months ago, so thought I would start a new one as well incase my question was lost at the end of the previous thread.
    Having some issues over the last couple of days with my Macbook Pro not waking up after going to sleep. The white stand by light on the front doesn't flash intermittently and it's like it's been shut down completely- the only way to wake it up is to do a hard boot (holding down the power button).
    Also, unsure if this is related or not, but occasionally it will freeze on the powering up screen (white with Apple logo), for ages or just completely. The only way to resolve is to switch off and try again. Like I said, only occasionally, not constantly, and it had been doing that for a while before the issue with shutting off when going into sleep mode occurred.
    I did an 'Etre Check' and it came back saying everything was fine.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you.

    Just to give an update on what actually happened, the logic board was knackered and needed to be replaced (with labour, this should have cost £410)... On a Macbook Pro which was almost exactly a year and a half old. I believe this is actually a lot more common than it probably should be (from doing a seach to find other people in similar situations, as well as court cases). Though, thankfully if you buy the product through Apple, they're happy to sort it out with no cost to yourself and no issues (providing the laptop is in good condition and less than 6 years old). Mine was actually from Tesco, and luckily enough there wasn't too much difficulty in getting a partial refund to cover the cost of repairs, though I believe this isn't the case with some other retailers, though Apple themselves are trying to change this and be as helpful as possible.
    So, basically, I'm leaving this information here incase anyone should happen to find this by doing a search of similar symptoms to those I had. If you find out your logic board has gone and your 1 year warranty is no longer valid, pursue the retailler who you originally bought the product from. By law in the UK (under the UK Sales of Goods Act.) they have to help you out as your electrical goods should last 'a reasonable amount of time', which is anything up to 6 years. Hopefully there are similar laws and consumer rights in place in other countries too. Again, Apple are very much aware of the situation with the logic boards so will more than likely help you out as much as they can.

  • MacBook Pro (15-inch, Early 2011) Repair Extension Program

    Hallo Community,
    I have a MacBookPro (15-inch, Early 2011). The Logic board has been replaced two times (free of charge) by Apple.
    Next week the three months warranty for the latest repair expires.
    The computer is doing fine now, there is no evidence of video distortions.
    But the machine rebooted unexpectedly 5 or 6 times.
    I' ve used the "check your coverage" tool in the Apple repair extension page, and my model matches the list of affected products.
    This means that if the machine persists in rebooting unexpectedly or the logic boards fails again I am still eligible for support from Apple until 27 Feb 2016? is that correct? Or do you suggest I bring the machine in for repair while still under warranty?
    Thank you for your time.
    Richard.

    This is the relevant paragraph:
    The program covers affected MacBook Pro models until February 27, 2016 or three years from its original date of sale, whichever provides longer coverage for you.

    You are covered to at least the expiration date, Feb 27, 2016.  Or if you purchased your MBP after Feb 27, 2013, you will be covered until the three year anniversary of the purchase.

  • Macbook Pro keeps freezing after replaced the hard drive

    hi there,
    recently, my macbook pro (15" 2.53 ghz, 4gb ram, 250gb hdd) hard drive crashed, having no warranty left, i went through all of the troubleshooting but nothing worked. i took it into futureshop and they tried the diagnostic and concluded that the hard drive crashed, and they told me to find a new hard drive in their store and theyll replace it for free (because it only takes a few minutes). i found a 500GB 2.5" SEAGATE hard drive in the store, and they fit it in for me. then i took it home and installed the O/S myself.
    IT WORKED GREAT!!!!! but my other hard drive was too corrupt to save any of the data, so i had to start from scratch :/
    after about a week or so, my mac gradually starting freezing up more and more, and i was worried because that was the initial problem i had.
    its been about a month and a half since the first freeze, and im sick of it! about 4 or 5 times a day, the thing would just stop everything its doing, and the mac wheel would spin for about 30 seconds or so froze,, and then go back to normal.
    whats confusing is that when im on skype and the mac freezes, i can still talk to the person from voice to voice, but EVERYTHING else just stops lik my itunes and the words im typing.
    SO PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ISSUE ITS KILLING ME!!!!
    i am willing to do anything or even replace my hard drive again just to fix this problem, so please your help would be greatly appreciated!
    THANKS !!!

    Hi r,
    Why not bring it back to the place you bought the HD and have them test it? If it is the HD, many places will give you a new HD if it has been under a certain time period (often 30 days), otherwise you may have to send it in to Seagate for a warranty replacement.

  • Macbook pro as [MacBook Pro Blank Screen ] with voided Warranty ?

    I have the same issue as told in this post.
    MacBook Pro Blank Screen (Built - in & External)
    However, I have manually replace my HDD to another. Since my HDD die before and want a bigger one. And I think my warranty have voided.
    So does it include in the replacement program of the logic board with free of charge ?
    Will apple help me do the replacement if I'm able to charge that fee even my warrany voided ?

    It really doesn't make a bit of difference whether someone else had an experience similar to yours. It's still up to AppleCare to deal with it.
    But you can certainly waste your time here for whatever you think you'll find. Good luck.

  • In downloading a photo from someone who used a 'free' sharing service, my Macbook Pro has acquired a virus-like extension called Genieo that I can't get rid of.

    Please help me get rid of Genieo once and for all! When downloading a photo for work that someone shared with a 'free' sharing service, my MacBook Pro has acquired a persistent virus-like thing that opens as my Firefox homepage - no matter what. I have faithfully followed all instructions on removing and unsintalling this parasite both from my computer and from Firefox . I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox Mozilla as well. All to no avail. Please help.

    In order to uninstall a possibly unwanted extension, please do the following:
    #From the Firefox window click the Firefox button at the top left and select ''Add-ons'', or, if the Firefox button is not shown, click the ''Tools'' menu and click ''Add-ons''.
    #Once the Add-on Manager has opened in a new tab, click the ''Extensions'' button on the left side of the window.
    #You should now see a list of your installed extensions on the right side together with buttons on the right side of each extension.
    #To remove an extension from Firefox, simply click the ''Remove'' button. You should see a message that informs you about the successful removal of the add-on.
    #Note that some add-ons require a Firefox restart to be removed completely. To perform a Firefox restart after the add-on removal, click the ''Restart now'' link in the message.
    You can find further information about uninstalling extensions in the following articles:

    Check you warranty status here:

    If the warranty is in effect, I should think the charger would be coverrd if the problem is not caused by abuse.

  • MacBook Pro stolen Insurance company replacement ZONM-0003

    I had my macbook Pro stolen a couple weeks ago.  I have replacement converage with my insurance company, however they are trying to get me to sign this authorization form to replace it with a computer with the Model # as ZONM-0003.  From searching google all I can find is that these computers appear to have been built with (Spare, Repair or replacement parts).  Does anyone have any information on any MacBook Pro's with this model #.  They tell me that they are brand new computers from Apple, but from what I can see these are not the correct model numbers.  I don't want to get a computer that has refurbished parts and end up having to bring it in for repairs constantly or have problems with even having it fixed because the parts are not new.   Any advice would be appreciated.

    Factory-refurbished Macs are indistinguishable from brand new ones, come with the same warranty, and are eligible for the same extended coverage with the purchase of the AppleCare plan. A refurbished Mac is a better deal than a new one, with no drawbacks. Be glad you're getting one.

  • Macbook pro unibody dvd drive replacement

    Hi guys, im new here, looking for some advice.
    My dvd drive on my macbook pro 13" unibody is playing up, it makes a odd noise when a disc is inserted, like something plastic is scratching.
    my DVD burner is GS23N SB03, i think i need to replace mine. Ive found a burner on the net but its a GS23N S23NA, does anyone know if i can swap mine for this? and would i need to do something software wise to get it to work?
    many thanks
    Gary

    How new is your MacBook Pro?, if it is a mid 2010 you can bring it to the apple store to have them take a look to it. If this is the case (having a 2010 MBP), you'll most likely be under the 1 year hardware warranty, and if an error is found with your MBP internal DVD drive, Apple will replace it at no cost.

  • My Macbook Pro screen is completely smashed up! What can/should I do?

    I dropped my Macbook Pro and the screen is completely smashed up. Glass not shattered but display is white with some colour markings - completely unuseable. Some denting to metal case. What is my next step? I have Apple Care and I'm within my one year warranty, but this damage is clearly inflicted by a third party, not the result of a manufacturing error. What should I do? I'm terrified: any idea of price/who can repair/how long it will take to repair will be hugely appreciated.

    Take it to Apple and see what they say. If you're in the US, they can ship it to the Apple depot for repair, which is less expensive than an in-store repair. We had a system sent to the Apple depot for repair, and as I recall the repair took 3 or 4 days, from drop off at the store to being returned to the store.
