Transfer of AppleCare Protection plan - possible?

I bought the iPhone EDGE soon after it was released.
I then got the AppleCare Protection plan, which essentially adds one more year to the existing 1-year you get with the iPhone.
I just bought the 3G iphone, the EDGE is in the box, and will probably just sit there forever.
The "first" year hasn't even expired yet from the EDGE.
Can I transfer my AppleCare Protection Plan over to my new 3G, to extend it one year?
It makes no sense to buy another plan - because again, the EDGE first year hasn't elapsed yet.
Can someone chime in...
THANKS

You can go type Applecare transfer into the search bar on Apple.com and find out all about it.

It looks like it will transfer to a new owner, but not a new iphone - but I didn't read it all.

  • Possible to get AppleCare Protection Plan just for Magic Mouse?

    Purchased one separately two months ago, couldn't find Applecare protection plan solely for it anywhere on Apple website. Anyone know?

    My suggestion: for such a relatively low-value item (in comparison to the products AppleCare is available for), you will be better off taking the amount of money you would be willing to pay and sticking it in a savings account, a money market account, or as part of a bank CD. Then, if something does go wrong, you'll have some cash to offset a repair or the cost of a replacement mouse. If nothing goes wrong, you'll have your original stake plus some earnings.

  • Can I refund my apple AppleCare Protection Plan

    Just so you know this was posted in the Apple TV section. To answer your question, it is not possible to extend beyond the 2 years

  • Lost Applecare protection plan?

    Hey guys,
    Almost a year ago, my brother bought my Macbook Pro, and picked up an AppleCare Protection Plan a few days later. I apparently lost the documentation before I was able to register, and just now my MacBook Pro is starting to act up.
    1) First of all, is it even possible to purchase AppleCare without giving my Serial Number or anything else that ties it to my computer?
    2) Am I basically screwed out of my AppleCare since it was bought separately at a date I'm not sure about, never registered, and I can't find the documentation?
    This is really important to me, and my warranty ends the end of the 5th, so any help at all would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    - Keith

    Nope it's not registered, which is what I thought. But is it really possible to buy AppleCare without giving any identifiable information as to what it protects?
    An AppleCare Protection Plan for a MacBook (or iPod or iPhone or Mac Pro tower or display) is a stand alone product. It is sold in many places just like any box of software. It's up to you to open the box and enroll the product using the serial number. When you purchase an APP you do not need to provide a serial number. The purchase is not the transaction that enrolls the plan for your product. If you never used the enrollment number in your box to apply to the serial number of your product over the phone (or online or by mailing in the enrollment card), then your product can't be covered.
    If you buy your computer at an Apple retail store and purchase an APP at the same time then they will ask you for your contact information when you pay and they can enroll it for you right then and there. But, if the product and the APP are purchased separately, they're not tied together until you go through the enrollment step.
    If you have a receipt for the Mac and a receipt for the purchase of the AppleCare Protection Plan, you can call AppleCare Support (in the US at 1-800-APL-CARE), there will be an option to talk to someone about AppleCare itself rather than "technical support". A person there can probably contact an AppleCare specialist you can fax your receipts and the enrollment number and they MAY be able to enroll your computer. If you don't have both receipts and the enrollment number, they won't be able to help you.
    If you really don't have the original AppleCare Protection Plan information, I'd suggest you buy a second copy and enroll it with the new number. If you find your original plan's information later, you can resell it to someone else who can use the enrollment number to apply to their Mac's serial number.

  • Problems Registering an AppleCare Protection Plan

    Thanks for ur help in advance
    I'm from Croatia and got my MacBook from USA. A friend of mine that lives in L.A. ordered it to his name and got me an AppleCare Protection Plan too. Date of the purchase is December, 31st 2008. The problem follows..... I can't remember if I registered my ACPP and if I did, have I wrote mine or my friends personal information. I obviously don't have a printed copy of an email that ur supposed to receive after registering the ACPP. it's been a while so it might be that I deleted it or never got it.. ****.. so now I need a confirmation email printed out to have my MacBook serviced, along with a receipt that I have. I don't have it in my inbox, I dont know how to check if It's already registered and I don't remember on whose name it is registered to... Please give any tips, suggestions or anything! I'm desperate! Nikola

    And for your general knowledge, the ACPP goes with the equipment. You could sell me your computer, never transfer anything and I could take it in and it would be covered. Just enter your serial number as was suggested and it will let you know.
    Also, by that time, if you purchased ACPP while purchasing the MacBook at an Apple Store, then it was automatically registered, or should have been.

    I need to modify an incorrect mailing address on my AppleCare Protection Plan certificate. 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.
