Purchase a warranty for an out-of-warranty T61p

My warranty expired a little over a year ago.  My situation is that my system won't start up (1 long beep, 2 short beeps, blank screen), and I have already determined that I will need a new system board.  The price for this is $475, and it is only guaranteed for 30 days labor, and 90 days for the part.
I was told that I could possibly get a new 1 year warranty for around $150 which takes a few weeks to activate, but still seems like a great deal.  Is this true, and will it cover the system board that malfunctioned while not under warranty?

    OK thanks for your replies.
    Now if something goes wrong how can my Macbook Pro be fixed cheaply. Two of my friends have bills for $1300 and $1100, one to repair motherboard another is to replace screen. One has extended warranty.

    The warraty doesn't cover lost or stolen.
    If the iPad was running iOS 7, the thief/finder will not ever be able to use it.

    How much will it cost for an out of warranty repair for a water damaged iPhone 4S in the UK?
    I got water in my iPhone 4S (not drenched as it was within a LifeStyle waterproof case).
    I dried it out in a bowl of rice, but the phone no longer charges, will not allow wifi, cannot locate network.

    You have to get a refurbished iPhone. As your phone is out of warranty, you will have to pay £139 at an Apple Store in order to get it > http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipho ne

  • Can the Apple store verify my purchase and warranty by serial number

    Can the Apple store verify my purchase and warranty period by serial number ??

    Serial number from device could mean it's been sitting in the warehouse for a year before he purchased it can't it?
    It could, but all authorized dealers are required to report the sale date and serial number to Apple. That's how Apple knows when a device was sold to set the warranty date; the warranty starts on the day the authorized dealer sells the device to the user, not when the dealer receives the device from Apple.
    How would they know his serial number from his device without registering it because I know all the serial numbers show up on my devices but like I said how would the serial number prove that he didn't purchase the device 6 months - 1 year after it left the warehouse or place of purchase.
    See my previous response.
    Says on website Apple may require a proof of purchase and to keep your receipt.
    They may, though usually they don't. But again, the user is not required to register the device with Apple to validate the warranty. In fact, in many countries it is illegal for any manufacturer to require registration before a warranty is honored. The proof of purchase is all that would ever be needed, and again if the device is take directly to Apple that's almost never required.
    Regards.

  • Restrict print out of Purchase order only for Production system

    Hi,
    I want to restrict print out of Purchase order only for Production system, don't want to take it in devep or quality.
    is there any identifier to find the system is production or development.
    can anyone tell me how to restrict it,
    is there any function module, not based on client system.
    Thanx in advance
    Kesav

    Hi Kesavarathinam Vaidyalingam ,
    yes, I also use thomas' suggestion using
    t000-cccategory = 'P'.
    to determine productive client.
    Just one small hint: I found this condition as true in a test system: The admin had done a system copy to create a fresh test client - but forgot (or did not see a good reason) to change t000-cccategory = 'P. to  t000-cccategory = 'T'.

    You don't need a license or a serial number to download Lightroom, which is the problem you state you are having. What is the license you purchased, anyway? Can you give us details?

    Not sure if you can just upgrade as you have to cross platform too. Best to ask Adobe CHAT. You might need to refund and start again.
