MacBook replaced: does AppleCare agreement transfer?

Hi,
I had a number of problems with my first revision MacBook (3 replacement batteries, replacement power pack, faulty logic board, faulty bluetooth, cracked case, discolouration, broken bezel, stuck pixel, mushy trackpad, etc, etc). When the logic board and bluetooth module failed again, Apple agreed to replace the machine with the latest MacBook (released a couple of days ago).
I have just under two years to run on the AppleCare associated with the first MacBook - does this AppleCare agreement automatically transfer to the new machine? or will I need to contact Apple again to arrange? I'm hoping that I do not need to purchase AppleCare again but forgot to ask this question when I picked up my new MacBook.
Similarly, I recently purchased ProCare (as I needed the logic board replaced quickly!) - will my old MacBook be removed automatically from the list of machines registered to me? I think the ProCare covers 3 machines so obviously do not want my old MacBook to be included on this list!
Any info from anyone with experience in these matters would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

Many thanks for the info.
I spoke to customer relations today:
1) AppleCare
Two choices - transfer the plan to new machine and use the remainder up with this machine or receive a pro-rata rebate on AppleCare and buy new AppleCare (I chose the latter)
2) ProCare
Visit the store I purchased this from and they will be able to de-register my old MacBook and update my agreement to include my new MacBook
Relatively pain-free resolution but would have been useful if this process was automated.
Hopefully this will help anyone with a similar query in the future.
Thanks again for your help.

Purchased music on Macbook Pro does not agree with the purchased music on iPad.

I have current versions of all software. And just bought a new iPad. When examining purchased music in iTunes on my MacBook Pro, it is pointing to current purchases over the past few years. But when examining purchases in iTunes on new iPad, it is pointing to very old purchases made several years ago. The purchases to do not agree - they are not in sync. I want them both to be in sync, or at least have both devices point to the current purchase list. Thanks in advance.

I have my iPhone attached via USB cable to my MacBook Pro.
I have been able to successfully sync my calendar now by activating iCloud on my iPhone and via System Preferences on my MacBook Pro after I learned that Maverick does not provide iSync.
However, I have a new problem: The calendar does not "upgrade" (it gets stuck) and I receive a "403" error and it gets stuck in a loop that I have to force quit. I have looked that up in the forum, but wasn't able to solve this issue because the solutions are way to technical and out of my league.
Very disappointed development as removing calendar from iCloud now also deletes all my entries on the Mac.

Does Applecare Protection cover MBPr display that has been replaced previously under original 12mo warranty?

I purchased my MBPr a little under a year ago and am contemplating buying the applecare protection plan to cover me for the next 2 years. The main reason for this is that I needed to have the original display replaced ~5 months ago due to image ghosting issues (LG original, Samsung replacement). My confusion comes when I look at what Apple categorizes under Hardware Coverage...from the Store website (link below), the last bullet point states "Apple display purchased with your Mac."
http://store.apple.com/us/product/APPLECAREMBP-102583/applecare-protection-plan- for-macbook-pro
Does this mean that since it's a replacement display that it would not be covered under the protection plan? That notion seems shady and ridiculous to me, but I wanted to make sure before I go and spend even more money on this machine.
Any advice would be appreciated...thanks!

As long as the replacement was done by Apple, or an Apple Authorized Service Center, then your remaining warranty continues and includes the replacement part. Any work performed under your warranty means your warranty remains fully intact, and it then covers the replacement parts and repairs.

Transfer Applecare Agreement

I'm selling my iPod and it still has about 6 months remaining on the Applecare agreement. How can I go about transferring the ownership of the iPod so the new owner can receive support on it and they won't have to know all of my information to get support?
Thanks,
Paul

My MacBook Pro does not recognize my Android Incredible 2 cell phone and I can not transfer my photos from my cell phoen to my Mac. I was able to do this in the past, but can no longer do so. i havenot upgraded to any new software.

My MacBook Pro does not recognize my Android Incrdible 2 cell phone and therefore I can not transfer any photos from my cell phone to my Mac. I was able to do this in the past, but can not do so now. I have not upgraded to any new software. My USB cable is plugged in properly and I just get an error message -- "No Android Device Found". What could be the problem?

I had the same issue with the Galaxy S4 trying to see what the hype was about and was my first and last android phone. With that being said unfortunately it is a hit or miss with the Mac recognizing an android device or not. It worked perfectly fine the first time around and then it stopped working for no apparent reason. Through trial and error nothing I did solved the issue. I did however plug it in my Mac and left it connected for about 30-40 min to charge for a bit and all of the sudden it recognizes the phone. So I just launched Android File Transfer and everything else became fluid after that. I have no explanation as to why it happened that way, but what I gathered from this is maybe you just have to let it sit for a minute while plugged in before the Mac recognizes it, after all they are opposing software. On a side note this is why I will always be an apple user, Iphones and the like never have this problem

I have a brand new macbook pro that i was doing a data transfer from an old macbook, it got stopped/cable pulled out, now have spinning wheel of death that wont stop, how do i reboot/stop the wheel of death and start again?

Just power off the machine(s). Shut them down. Migration Assistant gets 'stuck' sometimes - best way to migrate really isn't over Firewire, though it will certainly work, but with both machines hardwired via Ethernet to the same router. You can use a TM backup, too, of course, provided that it's recent. Which is the best? Your choice. I've done it both ways and have a preference for MA, but TM restore can be a bit faster and less quarrelsome.

I was having the same problem using ADE 4.0.2 and Mac 10.10.1. I finally gave up and deleted ADE version 4 and reinstalled version 3.0. Works fine, and I can check out ebooks for my Nook using ADE.

When does my AppleCare agreement start?

If you buy an AppleCare agreement (from the online store) in the same order as, say, an iMac, but the computer doesn't ship right away, when does the agreement start? When the agreement is bought, or when the computer arrives and you register it?
I bought one of the new iMacs recently,, and I also bought an AppleCare agreement in the same order. But since the machine was said to ship in 2-3 weeks, but the agreement was completed immediately, does this mean my agreement is already running even though I don't have the computer yet? If so, I'm losing out, aren't I? Meaning, since I bought the computer and agreement on November 30, but the computer won't get here until maybe 3 weeks after that, am I wasting part of the agreement time (from Nov. 30 until whenever the computer arrives)?
Or does the term of the agreement not actually start until the computer gets here and I register it, even though I already paid for the agreement?
Am I making any sense here? :)

Just to make sure - when you get your machine, go here:
https://register.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/GlobaliReg.woa
and register your product (or check if it is registered already). When you get to where the date of purchase is displayed, make sure it is indeed the shipping date. If it is not, contact Apple and inform them of the discrepancy.
As for the Apple care: your regular warranty is for one year with phone support for the first 90 days - the Apple care sort of runs concurrently because it covers any phone support for 3 years (technically, it adds 2 years to the original warranty) as well as hardware support of course.

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.

Does applecare cover a replacement battery

Does applecare cover replacing the battery? My iPhone 5 battery goes dead very quickly now and I am sure it needs replaced.

If your phone is still in warranty then a battery replacement is covered.
Even if it's out of warranty it may still be eligible for a free replacement through Apple's recent program:
iPhone 5 Battery Replacement Program Launched Today

What Apple product? Almost all of them have screens!

Does Applecare cover MacBook and MacBook Pro power cords/bricks?

I've replaced several over the years. They seem to be the weak link in these laptops. My Applecare is still in effect on the latest Pro. Has anyone dealt with Applecare on this issue? Specifically, in the area behind the small mag-safe plug a wire(s) seems to have broken connection. Thanks.

The original adapter that came with the machine for which you bought AppleCare was covered. If you had the first one replaced under AppleCare, the subsequent ones might also be covered, but only as long as you continued to apply to AppleCare to cover them. If you just went and bought them, they're covered only by their own warranties.
Damage of the kind you describe is caused by user abuse: disconnecting the plug by pulling on the cord (accidentally or deliberately), or bending the cord too sharply right behind the plug. If neither of those things happens, the cord won't fray and break there.
