Overclock GPU, voids applecare protection plan?

Hello, I recenlty installed windows on my MBP and am aware that overclocking the CPU will void the applecare plan, however I downloaded a program "MSI afterburner" on the windows side of my computer, and overclocked the GPU (graphics card), has this voided the apple care plan?

It makes no difference whether this is done in Windows or OS X. It's the same hardware. Any changes you make to the hardware which is not approved by Apple is considered to void the warranty regardless of whether it's done before, after, or during startup.
Were the changes you made sufficient to damage the GPU, Apple would not repair your computer.

  • 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

After I registered a new product with AppleCare I realised that I'd entered the wrong postal address during the registration process and now I need to update my details to show my correct address. I've been trying for several hours to find a way to modify my address on the AppleCare site, with no success. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

  • HT4993 Lost receipt for Applecare Protection Plan for my iPhone 5 - purchased phone and plan at a Sprint store. How can I find my receipt so that I can register my plan? My lock button is broken now, and I need to use my plan.

    I purchased my iPhone 5 and the Applecare Protection Plan a little over a year ago at my Sprint store. I was not informed that I needed to register my Applecare Plan, so I didn't. Now, my lock button on my iPhone is broken and I want to get it fixed or receive a new phone. PeachMac told me they would give me a new phone which would be covered under my Applecare Plan. I logged into Apple to make sure I still had time on my plan, but it doesn't even recognize that I purchased one and I no longer have the receipt for the plan, let alone the phone. How can I register my plan without the receipt? I'm feeling kinda of ripped off by Apple. Shouldn't they keep a record of who purchases these plans?
    Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Did you register the AppleCare+ plan at the time of purchase? If you didn't, even if you had the receipt, it's too late. It must be purchased and activated within 30 days of the initial purchase of the phone (it's usually done at the time of purchase). If Sprint didn't activate it at the time of sale, you can blame them. Apple doesn't control them.

  • HT201653 We are a retail shop which has a copy of AppleCare Protection plan. The box is not sealed. How can I tell if the product has been registered or not.

    We are a retail shop which has a copy of AppleCare Protection plan. The box is not sealed. How can I tell if the product has been registered or not.

    Since the only thing needed in that box is the small piece of paper with the (very long) registration code on it (usually found inside the booklet), see if that is actually there and, if it is, call Apple at 800-275-2273 and ask to be transferred to the Applecare department. Here is the link to the Applecare plan - just in case you may need it, see the fax numbers listed under para. 9 (Cancellation).

  • Im having trouble enrolling my applecare protection plan!!!

    I just got a 20 GB color ipod, and everytime i go to enroll it with the applecare protection plan, it says the number is invalid, but it is the number right off the APP card. Please help

    Doublecheck that you are putting the serial number in one box and the enrollment code in the other box. If you are doing that correctly and it's still not working, there should be a number to Applecare on that card. Usually you can get through to a live person in under 5 minutes, sometimes its right away. They will try it with you over the phone, and if it still doesn't work when they do it, they will likely have you mail or fax your receipt to them and they will enter it.

  • HT202696 Can I renew my Applecare Protection Plan that is due to run out?

    Can I renew my Applecare Protection Plan that is due to run out?

    Applecare is designed as an extended warranty for a set period (beyond the original manufacturer's warranty). It is a one time deal and not at all intended as an open ended insurance policy. If you have issues, you can still contact apple, but may have to pay for the call. You can post issues here. Visit an Apple store genius bar or authorized service center (which may involve charges for an services performed). Basically, it is what would happen for any electronic device that is out of warranty.

  • 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.
