Warranty for laptop

my parents bought me a laptop as a graduation gift i really love it...my prob is that i did not get a warranty for it..can i still get one eventhough it is been over 6 months?

You cannot purchase from Best Buy directly anymore for that extended warranty since it has been 6 months.
The best you can do now is purchase an extended warranty directly from the manufacturer.

  • Warranty for components

    my reuqirement is Iam creating Laptop(asset) as equipment in ie01 ,
    i need to maintian warranties for Laptop which is header one
    under this i need to maintain warranties for componets of laptop example ,anti virus( expiry of anti virus ) and key board warranty perios and some other soft wares warranty details
    for above requirement
    i created laptop as equipment and i maintained the warranty for laptop and  componets of laptop like anti virus, monitor and key board  i maintained as charctertsics, i asiged this chartceristcs to Laptop(eqipment in ie02)
    but my requirement is i need to  maintain waranty for compoents  of laptop also
    how can i map this requirement

    Hi Sukender,
      I think you can map this requirement better by making monitor, keyboard and antivirus as sub-equipment. I guess the warranty provided to the laptop and to anti-virus,etc will be different , hence you can have different warranty for all the sub-equipment of a superior equipment.
       With a BOM like structure ,for the equipment, you can't map the warranty requirement. More ever i would suggest you to cretae a template reference superior equipment and then with copy referenece , you can create the equipments (laptop).
    Also if you have created charecterictics say as hours for the laptop,then with the BOM like structure you will not be able to assign the same to the anti-virus. So in  your case its beneficial to have equipment hierarachy to have different warranties.

  • Extended warranty for DV6 motherboard?

    I bought a DV6 laptop for my daughter a little over a year ago, and about 2 months after the 1 yr warranty expired she started noticing a lot of heat on the bottom of her laptop.  I helped her clear out the dust in the fan area and made sure she was using a separate lap-pad with a fan.  We couldn't seem to cool it down much and then the display started having problems, and now she just gets a single flash on near the caps lock key.  Which I think means a processor or motherboard failure.  I've done a lot of checking around and have seen some mention that HP has an extended 2 yr warranty for this problem.  Does anyone know if that is true and if so?

    I just recieved a refurbished S100 and it came with a one year warranty.

  • Purchasing an extended warranty for the Sealed Battery

    Hi,
    I purchased an open box Lenovo X1 which has 2yrs onsite warranty remaining. I am now trying to purchase an extended warranty for the sealed battery unit but not sure how to proceed.
    I have found the product 04W7993 which sounds like the right item but not sure if it would apply to my machine.
    Can anyone confirm if this warranty product could be used to extend the warranty for my laptop? Even though it was open box, the cycle count was only 1 and the battery still has 100% of manufacturer capacity reported by the Power Manager.
    I have tried ringing Lenovo Warranty services and the Lenovo UK sales line but neither could help me.
    Cheers!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The 1294 system has a standard 3 year on-site warranty, the following are the options available;
    The problem for you may be that the accidental damage cover needs to be puchased, I believe, within 90 days of purchasing the system.  As you purchased an "open box" system I'm not sure if this is still possible, at best ask the shop where you purchased it;  if they had purchased it as a demo-system it should be possible for you to purchase both.

  • Extended warranty for Satellite A300-15C

    Hi
    I am new here so sorry if I posted it under wrong thread.
    I want to buy extended warranty for Satellite A300-15C (1+1 standard warranty) so I wanna ask which warranty package gives the longest protection for this model.
    2+2 is the longest? ID: SE5054I-PDB.
    Secondly, and more importantly, the laptop is more than 1 year old. When i was buying it, in retail store they told me that the extended warranty can be activated at any time, but now I see that there is this 30 days deadline policy. Is there any way how to overcome?
    Thanks

    Well I assume that if the laptop is under warranty you should be able to get service for it. You can check the warranty status at http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=LOOK-WARNTY#sw  That should tell you what the terms of your warranty are. If it is an international warranty you can get service at your local lenovo distributor. My t61 for example has a 3 year warranty that is valid in Turkey,. But also I have 1 year international, 2 years pan-Europeand and 3 year Turkish warranty. That was one ofthe stipulations in the contract when our thinkpads were purchased....

  • Misuse of clause in extended warranty of laptop by service centre to harass and cheat customer

    Please read it completely as this is from a Frustrated, Harassed, Cheated customerThis is with reference to case ID: 4756281406-471. The laptop against this case ID is under extended warranty. This laptop was given for repair to MI road Jaipur service centre of HP on 20th July 2015.My complaint is regarding the way your authorised service centre treats customer, as In spite of everyday following them up, till Saturday i.e. 25th July 2015 they kept on saying that mail regarding motherboard change has been sent & acceptance from authorities is still awaited. After chasing thru the call centre, very conveniently unilaterally they put the blame on customer that extended warranty is voided as they found liquid spillage on mother board.  Because for the laptop under extended warranty your service station does not tell or show to customer that laptop has been mishandled by customer when they are accepting the laptop for repair. Subsequently after keeping the laptop at their service station they conveniently later blame customer for mishandling under the clause that, the standard warranty does not extend to any HP Hardware Product that has been damaged or rendered defective as a result of accident, misuse, liquid spills, abuse, contamination, or other external causes.Poor honest customer like me who has not mishandled the laptop feels cheated. The service centre did not show/tell me any kind of mishandling when they received the laptop from me and then after keeping the laptop in service station they unilaterally decide that customer has mishandled.For laptop under extended warranty when the service centre know that such clause exists why they are not making the provision of showing at the time of accepting the laptop from customer, that the fault is due to mishandling of laptop by customer.I also forwarded this information to [email protected] but did not receive any reply from them. Is this the way HP treats its customer that they do not have courtesy to reply customer mail.I will be using a few harsh words against your after sales service setup. I will request you to pardon me for that. May be you are not aware of these activities being done at your service centre. As an honest and aware customer I would like to bring certain aspects to your notice.I have never mishandled this laptop. Your service centre is telling a lie. In case any mishandling has been done it is at your service station. Please take action to stop this kind of fraudulent activities at your service centre. This kind of harassment to customer will make customer run away from hp Laptops.For laptop under extended warranty please make provision at service centres of showing at the time of accepting the laptop from customer, that the fault is due to mishandling of laptop by customer. Otherwise stop such extended warranty schemes. I purchased your laptop only due to extended warranty scheme. If this scheme was not their then I would not have purchased hp laptop.I know HP is a big company; they do not bother about small customer. But still I would like to hope you will take out some time to look into this case specifically. My laptop is still at the service station in Jaipur and I hope you will do the needful to repair my laptop free of cost as it is in extended warranty. I did not mishandle laptop and your service centre did not show/tell me of my mishandling at the time of receiving laptop. From Frustrated, Harassed, cheated customer

  • Problem buying Extending Warranty on Laptop

    I brought a B570 laptop a few months ago as an opened box purchase that had been returned to supplier,  this was fine and a couple of weeks ago I looked at buying an extended laptop warranty and when I was on the site It said my warranty expired on the 19/11/2012 so I thought Id have a think about it as I had some time.  I tried last night (a day in advance) to get on but had difficulties getting on so I tried first thing this morning at work (with a previously saved bookmark but now it lists the warranty as expired and wont let me extend it [Warranty Status is expired & expiration date is TODAY]).
    I have tried to ring the UK helpline, but it indicated they weren't actually Lenovo and I was offered no guarantee that they could help but they would try if I emailed details of the machine and purchase and it would take some time to get back to me before they could indicate if they could possibly extend the warranty (not sure this wasn't with them as a company).
    So I thought Id try posting on this forum as it seems someone with a similar issue managed for a Lenovo staff member to help them out.
    All I want to do is purchase the additional 2 years warranty for my B570 (I have a copy of the text from when I looked before and it offered 2 more years for £55.86 that I would like to try and buy)
    Thanks

    Not out of the love of spending more, I always get AppleCare, and I've usually had reason to use it in the final year or so. While I'm generally a self-sufficient user, there are sometimes questions that I need Apple to answer, and they always arise after the original warranty has expired. If you have AppleCare there is no reason to be concerned that it "may invalidate the credit card protection side of it." In fact, some credit cards actually extend AppleCare itself by one additional year.
    I think it is still true that you can purchase AppleCare at any point during the life of the original warranty. There are also places that sell AppleCare for less than Apple does itself.

  • How do I use my late 2011 iMac ( with thunderbolt) as external monitor for laptop/Xbox or other device with hdmi as output.

    May be this question has been asked thousand times. how do I use my mid 2011 iMac ( with thunderbolt) as external monitor for laptop/Xbox or other device with hdmi as output. if apple hasn't removed that feature and has just moved that functinoality to thunderbolt then how can I use it. currently there is no laptop available with thunderbolt output. no 3rd party converter available. whats the use of having feature on latest functionality if we cant use it. I wish they would have made one port has mini-dvi and other thunderbolt for backward compatibility untill some vendor comes up with converter.

    It Says :
    Mac (21.5-inch, Mid 2011) and iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) and later computers support Target Display Mode via Thunderbolt to Thunderbolt cable (2 m) when the source is another Thunderbolt-equipped computer.
    Name one computer model/vendor which has thunderbolt as output for display + audio. this is so stupid to move to new technology without availbility of its compatible devices.

  • Questions on MCX Policies for Laptop/Mobile Users:

    Questions on MCX Policies for Laptop/Mobile Users:
    I have several managed Macs running Leopard. Many of them are MacBook laptops. My main MCX policies involve mapping printers and mounting network volumes at login. These are simple computer and group policies to help make the users life a little easier when it comes to finding and using network resources such as file server volumes and network printers.
    Since most of my users are laptops, they are expressing 2 major concerns involving their laptops when they are off the LAN (i.e.; on the road at a cafe, working at home, staying at a hotel or when they have no network at all)
    1) When users are off our LAN, the Mac still tries to mount the network volumes in their OD/MCX login items when the user logs in (with cached mobile credentials). Can this be avoided? Windows PCs do not do this. If the PC laptop cant find an AD DC, they simply don't run the login scripts and thus dont try to mount/map network volumes. How can I make the Mac laptops only mount network volumes when they are on the LAN?
    2) Most Mac users have a Cisco VPN client, and use it regularly to connect to the company's LAN from home, hotels etc. Of course when they log into the network via VPN, their network volumes are not mounted automatically. Is their a way to re-run the MCX managed login items script once they connect to the VPN and mount (i.e.; "map") their network drives? Sure, users can simple use the "Connect To Server" option in the FInder (or perhaps try and use the god-awful Leopard Finder side bar discovery browser thingy which I hate - never mind), but I need a consistent automated way to mount volumes quickly and easily for my mobile users. There must be a way to run (or re-run) the login items part of my MCX policies.

    Ping!
    I'm looking for this functionality too. Anyone have a solution to either of these? One that came to mind is to wrap the login items in a script which detects if the LAN is available.

  • Material, service and warranty for single product

    Hai all,
    I have to do a scenario like this..
    I have to sold a DG set to a customer and have to maintain service and warranty for the same..

    Can we use COMMPR01 for this..
    Thanks in advance,

    You cannot ship to an Apple store in another country - they will not
    accept the shipment.
    You must either take the iPhone personally to the country where the
    warranty is valid or send it to a friend/relative in that country. After
    repair/replacement, the friend will have to send the iPhone back to you.
    All shipping and insurance costs are your responsibility.
    Buy the iPhone where you intend to use it to avoid warranty problems.
    Some features (especially 4G/LTE) might not work outside the country
    the iPhone was meant for. KSA, UAE and some other countries block
    FaceTime from the iPhone and FaceTime cannot be installed on those
    iPhones even if used outside the restricted areas.

  • Upgrade question for laptop to run PPro CS6/CC

    All,
    I've spent the last several days reading, researching and generally getting up to speed on what my options are re hardware moving forward, and though I've been a lurker/user of these forums (and others) for years, this is my first time engaging directly now that I feel I know a bit more. I must also say how incredible a resource the regular users like Harm Millard have been to self-taught but enthusiastic newbies like me - thank you!
    I've been a longtime self-taught, relatively light but still barely pro Premiere Pro user for the past ten years. For the past couple of years, I've been barely getting by using CS4 on my once-top-of-the-line Dell Precision M6500 laptop running Win7 Pro 32-bit. The M6500 is by far my favorite PC I've ever owned and is still rocking, even with older specs (listed below), but it is time to grow up, bite the bullet and (hopefully) upgrade this machine so that I can take advantage of CS6/CC and do a bit more heavy lifting (basic color correction, light After Effects, etc).
    I currently shoot on a Sony AX2000 in AVCHD, but am starting to do more work on my Canon t3i and am close to moving up to a Canon 5D mk3, so will be using more HD MOV files in the near future, possibly alongside the old AVCHD footage. Most of my exports are for HD web uploads, but also occasionally export to DVD. I do not anticipate stepping up to Red footage or the like in the near or mid future.
    My current laptop specs are as follows:
    Win7 32-bit
    4GB RAM
    Intel i7 quad core M620 (2.67GHz)
    500GB 7200rpm HDD
    Nvidia Quadro FX 2800M
    I've already ordered a RAM upgrade to get me to 16GB, have Win7 64-bit ready to install, and just bought 2 x 750GB 7200rpm HDD (Western Digital). Instead of investing in an all new machine (laptop or desktop), and considering the amazing stability and longevity (so far) of the M6500, I'd like to try and see if I can get this machine to a place where I can take advantage of CS6/CC and have it run stably and somewhat fast. I realize it's not the best option, and that getting an all-new tricked out desktop is the preferred option, but for budget reasons, that's not possible right now.
    Here's my plan:
    Upgrade so that system will be:
    Win7 64bit
    16 GB RAM
    2 x 750GB 7200rpm HDDs (internal)
    rest of the system listed above would remain the same as above - namely CPU and graphics card
    The machine can also support a mSATA mini SSD (up to 256GB), but I haven't splurged for that yet. I'm  trying to figure out whether to use the two new HDDs in RAID 0 and have the OS, project files, cache, source footage and export files all on those two RAIDed drives, or whether it would make a truly huge difference to add another internal SSD as the boot/OS/Program Files drive and leave the RAID 0 configuration to handle all video and project files. I've read enough to assume that adding the SSD is the preferred option, but it's pricey, and what I'm trying to determine is whether or not it's really worth the cost vs a straight 2-HDD RAID 0 configuration.
    I've read a lot about the dangers of RAID 0, but am not too concerned about failures since I use an online backup system (Sugarsync) for all my document files (this machine doubles as my main work PC) and I regularly back up all source and exported video files.
    On a separate note, I realize that my graphics card is not listed among the supported cards for CS6/CC - is that going to cause stability and/or significant performance issues, or will it work since I won't be doing 4k/Red files? Is the CUDA hack an option for me? I have the option of upgrading the card to a supported card (Nividia M5000), but it's hugely pricey (close to $2k) and unless it will make the machine an absolute stud for years to come, it's not worth it.
    So in short (yeah right ), here are my questions:
    Does my proposed new system have the juice to handle what I want to do?
    Which HDD setup is preferred, and by what degree (do I absolutely have to get the SSD to make this work?):
    2 x 750GB 7200rpm HDDs in RAID 0 for the entire machine
    1 x SSD (what size is minimum recommended?) as boot/OS plus 2x750GB HDDs in RAID 0
    Will my existing Quadro 2800M graphics card make the other RAM/HDD upgrades a waste of money?
    Is my existing CPU powerful enough to warrant these other upgrades?
    Sorry for the long post, and thanks for any help you guys can provide!
    Van

    Van,
    Tough love - I'm going to give you my honest opinion here, but it does make me feel bad since you seem to have already ordered parts before you posted.
    1. In a word no. Your processor is dual core. You really want at least quad core + hyperthreading for the media that you will be pushing around. The Quadro 2800M only has 96 CUDA cores and DDR3 (slow) memory. BTW, task manager shows 4 "cores" when you have a dual-core + hyperthreading.
    2. I'd choose 2. - much nicer - worth the cost
    3. yes
    4. no
    So what to do if you cut bait on your current plan and get a new laptop. Check out recent (< 6 mths old) threads here for lots of discussion at various price points. Gamers laptops and Sager/Clevo models definitely offer the best bang for the buck for laptops to run Premiere, mostly due to the GTX video line trouncing the Quadro line for performance for the price. I loved the Dell M6500 in its time. If you want to replace it with something current day the M6700 is good, but I like what HP is doing for the 17" workstation class even better in 2013. If you can buy a few months, I suspect the new smaller die size 22nm Intel cpus will be really help for laptop performance (desktops have just about all the cpu cooling capacity required, but in laptops cooling through tiny tiny coolers and tiny, tiny, quiet fans is way limited - so, the new lower wattage, cooler 22nm cpus should be much larger boost for laptop users than workstations).
    I suspect that I would really enjoy editing on a well thought out $1500 Asus, even better on a $2200 Sager, and would have similar performance with the support of HP or Dell at closer to a $3000 price point for the media you mention above. ADK sells Sager/Clevo laptops and has much better support for video (and audio) editors than HP or Dell ever dreamed to provide; prices would be a bit more than www Sager dealers but ADK is a no-brainer if you want "real" support and a machine that is tweaked for Adobe.
    Regards,
    Jim

  • I'd like to buy an iPhone 4S in France directly from the Apple Store, not from the operators. But, I will go back to my country, Thailand. So, I'm wondering to know that there is an INTERNATIONAL warranty for iPhone, and is it valid in Thailand (warranty)

    I'd like to buy an iPhone 4S in France directly from the Apple Store, not from the operators. But, I will go back to my country, Thailand. So, I'm wondering to know that there is an INTERNATIONAL warranty for iPhone, and is it valid in Thailand (warranty). Would it be able to be claimed at the iStudio in Thailand?

    There is NO International Warranty for the iPhone.  Your best bet is to purchase one in Thailand.  If you purchase a phone in France, you will NOT get warranty service on it in Thailand and will have to return it to France (or any EU country) for warranty service.

  • Best Practice(s) for Laptop in Field, Server at Home? (Lightroom 3.3)

    Hi all!
    I just downloaded the 30-day evaluation of Lightroom, now trying to get up to speed. My first task is to get a handle on where the files (photos, catalogs, etc.) should go, and how to manage archiving and backups.
    I found a three-year-old thread titled "Best Practice for Laptop in Field, Server at Home" and that describes my situation, but since that thread is three years old, I thought I should ask again for Lightroom 3.3.
    I tend to travel with my laptop, and I'd like to be able to import and adjust photos on the road. But when I get back home, I'd like to be able to move selected photos (or potentially all of them, including whatever adjustments I've made) over to the server on my home network.
    I gather I can't keep a catalog on the server, so I gather I'll need two Lightroom catalogs on the laptop: one for pictures that I import to the laptop, and another for pictures on the home server -- is that right so far?
    If so, what's the best procedure for moving some/all photos from the "on the laptop catalog" to the "on the server catalog" -- obviously, such that I maintain adjustments?
    Thanks kindly!  -Scott

    Hi TurnstyleNYC,
    Yes, I think we have the same set-up.
    I only need 1 LR-catalog, and that is on the laptop.
    It points to the images wherever they are stored: initially on the laptop, later on I move some of them (once I am am fairly done with developing) within LR per drag&drop onto the network storage. Then the catalog on the laptop always knows they are there.
    I can still continue to work on the images on the network storage (slightly slower than on laptop's hard drive) if I still wish to.
    While travelling, I can also work on metadata / keywording, although without access to my home network the images themselves are offline for develop work.
    2 separate catalogs would be very inconvenient, as I would always have to remember if I have some images already moved. No collections would be possible of images including some on the laptop, some on the network.
    Remember: a LR catalog is just a database with entries about images and the pointer to their storage location.
    You can open only 1 DB of this sort at a time.
    There is no technical reason for limiting a LR-catalog - I have read of people with several hundert thousand images within one.
    The only really ever growing part on my laptop with this setup is the previews folder "<catalog name> Previews.lrdata". I render standard previews so that I can do most of the work for offline-images while travelling.
    The catalog itsself "<catalog name>.lrcat" grows much slower. It is now 630 MB for 60'000+ images, whereas previews folder is 64 GB.
    So yes, I dedicate quite a junk of my laptop hard disk to that. I could define "standard"-previews somewhat smaller, fitting to the laptop's screen resolution, but then when working at home with a bigger external monitor LR would load all the time for the delta size, which is why I have defined standard-preview-size for my external monitor. It may turn out to be the weakness of my setup long-term.
    That is all what is needed in terms of Lightroom setup.
    What you need additionally to cover potential failure of drives is no matter of LR, but *usual common backup sense* along the question "what can be recreated after failure, if so by what effort?" Therefore I do not backup the previews, but very thoroughly the images themselves as well as the catalog/catalog backups, and for convenience my LR presets.
    Message was edited by: Cornelia-I: sorry, initially I had written "1:1-previews", but "standard previews" is correct.
