If I buy this, is it automatically covered by Apple for the 90 days or 1 year without buying applecare?

Off my head apple covers it for one year and applecare two additional years ! I think the 90 days is for Software support as far as calling them up person to person help ! Another thing to remember is several Credit Cards that you purchase with Ex. ) Amex Gold will cover purchase for additional year etc.

I'm sure it has a 1 yr warranty and applecare for 90 days I think. Applecare is good to work with. they don't treat you like an idiot, listen to you and are very patient.

As far as I know, yes. How ever I had a protection plan via applecare that expired and I tried to re-new it only to find out it is not re-newable. So when it runs out, you're on your own.

You need to buy the insurance within the first 90 days after purchasing the phone. They assume the phone is still functioning properly. When you file a claim you have the option of sending your phone in for a replacement or going to an Apple store, buying a refurbished phone, and getting SquareTrade to reimburse you. We did this on my son's phone and SquareTrade paid us very quickly. Their customer service is excellent. They will explain your options when you start the claim process. I have many warranties with them, and when we've needed to file a claim they were great. Hope this helps!

For up to two years from the original purchase date of your iPad, the AppleCare Protection Plan gives you direct, one-stop access to Apple's award-winning telephone technical support for questions about using your iPad. And you get hardware repair coverage both parts and labor on your iPad, its battery, and included accessories

No, for timing reason. The Apple Care is to cover your Mac from the date of purchase (2012) Year 1 through Year 3. Since you have standard 1-year coverage, you can buy this Apple Care plan anytime within standard 1-year (2012). That time has lapsed, so this is useless for you 2012 Mac. Basically you are trying to insurance after the fact, this never works. You can't auto insurance after the car accident.

If the buyer says it has 3 year AppleCare then it do but if it doesn't say so then it comes with one year where you can purchase it yourself within that first year. I bought the macbook from the seller that listed it in the description of the condition and it came as advertised. Won't expire till 2017 in June.

Absolutely, this plan just extends your warranty. Just make sure you register this AppleCare plan before your 1-year warranty expires. The guys in any Apple Store will give you a hand.

If you buy a new computer directly from amazon or any seller, you can buy Applecare for it. I bought mine from a secondary seller who wasn't an authorized dealer and all I needed was the amazon receipt as proof of purchase to register my Applecare.

I bought the AppleCare for it about 2 months after I bought the computer, since since this laptop travels with me quite a bit. With a desktop computer, you probably don't need AppleCare, but with a laptop it's good insurance.

Only comes with 1 year limited warranty You can get the AppleCare Protection though

Yes if the former owner had AppleCare or another warranty that's currently in effect ... It's an older unit so it may have run out even if they had one initially . Mine runs out in April 2015. Good Luck!

I have AppleCare from Amazon that is the exact same warranty you will end up buying at the Apple store. To my knowledge Apple is pretty strict with their products they would never allow AppleCare to be something that is not their own. Sorry for the late reply.

Yes it should cover it, but I would check with apple about getting the AppleCare a year after...

It comes with one year AppleCare, with option to extend it. If you are new to Apple products I highly recommend the AppleCare.

Thanks. I bought an iPad from an authorized retail store (Samys) and am wondering whether it makes sense to buy AppleCare for the iPad to give it an extra year of warranty. I wonder if Amazon is an authorized retail store for that purpose, as is required? (There's an Apple Store in the area for the required inspection.)AppleCare Protection Plan for iPad (NEWEST VERSION)
