Wanna buy a Macbook pro from US...currently living in India.

I currently live in Kolkata,planning to buy macbook pro retina dispplay from US ..my sister wanna gift me..so in that case will all the after sales services like those damage insurance and other stuff will be valid in India?Will I have to send it to US in case of damage or the thing can be sorted out by stores here in india,(Apple(India))The student discount can only be obtained by US college student as mentioned(true??)

The warranty and (if you purchase it) AppleCare plan for the MacBook Pro are international in coverage. It is NOT damage insurance, however. It covers manufacturing defects in materiels and workmanship, but if you damage the MBP through your own (or another's) fault, it is your responsibility to pay for repairs. Service can be performed - or in some cases mail-in repair set up - at any Apple authorized service provider.
I don't know for sure about the student discount. If purchased online you have to buy through your school's store, and that would not be in the US obviously. Purchasing through one of the Apple retail stores might be different, however. I would have your sister call them for their policy first.
Best of luck.

Where can I purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan?
Depending on the Apple product, the AppleCare Protection Plan is available at the Apple Online Store, Apple Retail Stores, and many Apple Authorized Resellers including many wireless service providers. Apple recommends that you purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan in your country of residence, because each AppleCare Protection Plan has terms and conditions specific to consumers in the country or region in which the plan is offered.

I can save $300 if I will from United States, but I want the Keyboard English and Arabic.
Can I request that by contact to Apple?

Now I am in Thailand. Can i buy Refurbished Macbook pro from US appple store?

Excuse me. I am in Thailand. Can i buy Refurbished Macbook pro from US apple store?

The USA web store requires payment in US funds, from a US source, and with a US billing address for the account. And as Limnos mentions, they do not ship internationally - they will only ship to a US street address (no P.O. Boxes so no re-shipper will work either).

You can look here to see if they have anything available for your model, but be advised even opening a Retina voids the warranty.

Could I be refused Applecare if I was to buy a MacBook Pro from Ebay?

So, I'm looking to buy a MacBook Pro. Only problem is, I'd rather not have to spend the £1000 I'd need to do so.. Mainly because I haven't exactly got it all, and even if I do, I'd rather not spend it all..
I've been browsing ebay looking at Pros for sale, and I've found a few possible ones- But I want to know if anyone else has done the same and had certain problems in the past? I mean, I would only consider buying from someone with 97% - 100% positive feedback anyways..
My idea was to buy a one that I liked the look of, for say, £400 maximum, and then just buy apple care afterwards from the actual apple store.. Good plan?
Some people have mentioned that Apple may refuse to sell/cover me with applecare? Would they actually refuse it? And if so- how could I get around it?
Any help and advice will be much appreciated! Thanks in advance-
L!

You can only buy Applecare in the first year of ownership. Not sure if any Used Mac's can get Applecare. I think it is for the original buy only, but I may be wrong on that.
Sure if the system was older then one year Apple would not sell you Applecare even if you were the original owner.
That is One Year from Date of Original Purchase. 367 day old NO Applecare.

Can i buy a MacBook/Pro from the US online store from another country?

Hi guys,
is it possible to pay for the US online store for buying a MacBook / Pro and ship it within the states of course??
one of my family members are there and they are not that much into computers, is it possible to buy it from here (Jordan) using a Jordanian Credit Card and put the shipping address in the states??
I didn't know where to post this exactly, so hope i can be answered and hope i can be directed into the right department instead of deleting it
Thank you

Sorry, but the US Apple Store cannot accept credit/debit cards with billing addresses outside of the US nor checks on non-US banks.

Can I buy a Macbook Pro from Apple store Singapore and send it to Italy?

I' m wandering if I can buy a Macbook Pro Display Retina from Apple Store Singapore online and then send it to Italy. Please answer.
Thank you :)

They will not send it to Italy.
If you want to take possession in Singapore and ship it yourself to Italy, you could.
When it arrives in Italy, your new MacBook will be subject to VAT at its brand-new value, perhaps 17 percent of the full Retail price.
I am not sure what you are trying to accomplish, but this does not seem to save you any money.

Can I buy a macbook pro from US?

According to the currency now, it seems that buying a Macbook pro in U.S is cheaper than in Australia. Anyone who know that is allowed to.

While the US price is lower, you need to purchase it in the US to get it (the online stores will only sell to the specific country they are tied to). If you have a friend that can buy one and send it, then you can go that route, though I suspect the postage will make up for the price difference and there's a good chance you might get stuck paying a duty on it.
Alternatively, if you just happen to be in the USA, you can purchase one. You may have to pay duty on it, though. I'm not endorsing it, but I know that some people dress up the computer (put it in a computer bag, customize you applications and desktop, load music, etc.) so that it looks like you left home with it -- to avoid duty (since they won't make you pay duty on your personal effects that you left home with).

Is it safe to buy a macbook pro from the US to use in india? The apple warranty is valid throughout the world?

My uncle is presently in the US and i am tempted to ask him to get me the latest mid 2012 13in macbook pro! I wanna know if its safe to buy it from there and use it here in india?? Also the first year warranty is valid throughout the world or because i bought the MBP in US so my warranty is valid there only? I also understand that the power brick has different ports in the US as opposed to india, so if I use a simple port converter, will it suffice or i need a voltage converter too? i have been google - ing this question over the internet and found vague answers. Please help! Response is appreciated!!

Your warranty is valid worldwide. The power adapter is universal, so you will only have to invest in the correct plug.
Good luck,
Clinton

How to buy a MacBook Pro from the Online Store

Well, I'm Indian, and apple does not have an apple store in India(not even an online one). I need the new MacBook pro with 16 Gigs of ram in it.
I do regularly travel to Australia and am considering buying one from their online store. But it asks for an AUSTRALIAN CARD. Did I just get something wrong or I need an Australian Credit card(if that's the case, I'm screwed). Also can I use an international credit card or am I done for????

You could also try contacting an Apple retail store in Australia and see what their policy is for an in-store purchase and if you can reserve a unit for when you are traveling there.

How do i deregister my MacBook Pro from the current apple ID that it is connected to?

I just got a new MacBook Pro laptop and i unintentionally registered it with an apple ID which i dont wish it to be registered to. How could i "deregister" from the apple ID I am currently connected to? Anything helps, thanks!

zitzerman,
you’d need to boot into Recovery mode by holding down ⌘R as your MacBook Pro starts up. When the OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. Run Disk Utility to completely erase your internal disk; after it’s been erased, exit Disk Utility and select Shut Down from the Apple menu. When you restart it, OS X Internet Recovery will redownload your MacBook Pro’s original version of OS X from Apple’s servers, and then install it. When you run it, the welcome video will play; reïnitialize it to your liking, associating it with your preferred Apple ID. When you log in, run Software Update to get it up to date in its installed version of OS X.

Can I buy apple MacBook pro from whole sellers as they are a lot cheaper ?

One guy was giving a MacBook pro 15 inch for $500 should I go for it ?

He is a whole seller from uk and he has sent me great pics of the laptop and he says that is is an original apple product
Sounds like a scam if he's claiming to be a wholesaler, $500 is too low for a new Mac.
Perhaps it's a used machine, broken on the inside or the pics are not what your going to recieve, still a scam. IMO.
If your buying this off eBay, use Escrow.com
https://www.escrow.com/index.asp
What you can do here is send your money to Escrow.com, get the product and check it out, if it's fine then you release the money.
Escrow.com works with both parties to ensure a safe transaction and you get what your supposed to get.
Of course there could be a scam where they send you the $500 machine, then you return it and they claim you broke it, doubt they would bother to make a courts claim but it's possible, so you should add postal insurance for damage both ways.
Download the free MacTracker and check the claims of the machine your going to recieve with it's value on this site.

First off you can't get a brand new latest issue Mac any less expensive than perhaps 10% or so off the price you see at the Apple Store online.
Use this site as a clue.
http://www.appleinsider.com/mac_price_guide/
If your getting a new latest Mac in a sealed box at a lot less than the above link prices without tax, then it's likely stolen.
Now it could be a Early 2011 model Mac, Apple is now on the Late 2011 model Mac's with slight upgrades, so if it's a Early 2011 Mac, then yes you might be able to get it cheaper as a closeout, make sure you buy it at the store with a receipt and everything so it's a legitimate transaction.
If your getting it in a opened box (used), you can check the serial (apple menu> about this mac > more info) here
http://www.appleserialnumberinfo.com/Desktop/index.php
Main thing is to cover your behind, if you buy stolen merchandise then it's taken away and you lose it and your money, not to mention possibly going to jail if you knew it was stolen.
