Frequently Asked Questions
Can I purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan anytime? You can purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan anytime within the one-year limited warranty period. Your eligibility for coverage under the AppleCare Protection Plan starts from your hardware purchase date. Apple strongly recommends that you purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan when you purchase your Apple product to maximize the additional benefits provided under the plan. What service options does the AppleCare Protection Plan offer? Apple may provide service through one or more of the following options: carry-in service (to Apple retail stores or Apple Authorized Service Providers), direct mail-in service, onsite service (for desktop computers), or Do-It-Yourself (DIY) parts (so you can service your own product). What does "global repair coverage" mean? If you take your Apple hardware with you when you travel and happen to need repair service, the AppleCare Protection Plan offers global repair coverage. You can either go to an Apple retail store or contact Apple for information on how to obtain service. Service will be limited to the options available in the country where service is requested. Service options, parts availability, and response time vary according to country. Please see the AppleCare Protection Plan Terms and Conditions for complete details. When I purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan, do I need to register it? If you purchase your AppleCare Protection Plan and your covered product separately or elsewhere, you will need to register your AppleCare Protection Plan. Your AppleCare Protection Plan coverage starts from your hardware purchase date. Registering your AppleCare Protection Plan at a later date does not extend your coverage.

 It's Apple, it's necessary, and it's CHEAP May 16, 2010
R. LaPedis (San Bruno, CA USA)
With all of the things that can go wrong with the hardware or software making up a computer system these days, AppleCare is almost a must. But there is no reason that you need to pay retail, or even Amazon't prices for it. As long as you buy from a reputable source so that you are not getting a cracked subscription code, why not get the best deal that you can.
 Beware AppleCare April 10, 2010

Simply put, Apple is contemptuous of it's customers.
I brought my 11 month old $2500 MacBook Pro to the Apple Store in for a broken enter key and was told that the dent in the butter-rigid aluminum case from a slight drop that happened 10 months ago voided my AppleCare THAT I HAVEN'T EVEN STARTED USING YET (AppleCare covers from month 13 thru 36.) They offered to "recertify" my AppleCare for $600-$1200 dollars (HELLO!!! I can get a NEW Dell with equivalent specs for $500!!!) The computer has no problems other than a failing battery and a broken enter key (OBVIOUSLY those issues were not caused by the dent.)
Rather than support their customer their looked for a way to limit their liability. Apple SUX. Don't enable their contemptuous behavior towards their customers by continuing to buy their products. Maybe if more people stop acting like they had Stockholm Syndrome Apple would start acting like a company than understands how to support it's customers.
Hello Mr. Dell! I'm back again.

I just purchased this from avancity and everything went very smoothly for me. I just successfully registered my early 2009 MBP.
Applecare is Necessary but Beware of This Product February 8, 2010
D. Blumenthal (NC, USA)
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I am in North Carolina and ordered this product. I don't know if there is issue with NC, but there is no warning on this.
If you own an Apple product, you owe it to yourself to get the 3-year warranty with AppleCare. Don't make the same mistake my sister-in-law did! She had to replace an iMac that was 14 months old (weird since I own 2 and never had trouble).
However this product may or may not work. The seller did not ship me anything, but gave me a number over email to register the product online. This failed. When contacted, Advancity (the seller) told me to call AppleCare Support to get it registered. 30 minutes of wasted time later, and Apple says that I have to get a refund.
Buyer beware of this product from this seller!
Apple Care Protection Plan January 28, 2010
Ziniamb (Long Island, New York)
I just bought this, at a discounted price from Amazon (versus The Apple Store). I haven't needed it yet, but I bought a plan for my Imac and everyone at Apple was extremely helpful, professional and courteous. It's a good thing to have, with these expensive machines.
