Overall, Apple makes the process of checking your warranty, finding repair costs and getting your device fixed simple and straightforward. After the 60 day window, coverage can no longer be added and you’ll only get the limited one year warranty and 90 day complimentary telephone support. If so, you can go ahead and add AppleCare warranty coverage. The last option about AppleCare Protection Plan is only useful if you have purchased your Mac computer within the last 60 days. For example, here’s a page that gives you prices for replacing a battery on a Mac that is no longer under warranty. If they tell you that you have to send in your machine in order to get it repaired, that’ll obviously cost you if the warranty is expired. If you choose contact, you can either have Apple call you or you can chat with someone online. If you click on the second link, Show my service and repair options, you’ll be brought to a page where you can either contact Apple support or you can setup a genius bar appointment to bring in your machine. You can purchase telephone technical support or pay the out-of-warranty costs for any repairs. With AppleCare+, you get up to two incidents of accidental damage coverage, and there is a deductible depending on the type of damage and the device: iPhone: 29 for screen damage, 99 for any other damage.


Now you will get a quick overview of three things: whether this was a valid purchase, whether you have telephone technical support and whether or not there is any repair or service coverage.Īs you can see in my case, all warranty options have expired for my mid-2009 MacBook Pro. Here you will need to enter a captcha and then click Continue.
