applecare

Hello all. I got one of the new M3 Pro MacBook Pros recently and less than a month after purchase, the bottom patch connecting the display to the main body seems to have detached itself. Unfortunately, this is after the two week refund period, but I did already pay for AppleCare in advance. I’ve...

Hi guys, A bit of a weird one but couldn't think where else to ask this. I've a Macbook Pro M1 Pro that was issued to me in my software developement job. Unfortunately a year ago I was made redundant but as part of my exist package I was gifted the MacBook by the company as a 'Sorry, hope...

The evening of Feb. 20th, 2024 wasn't unusual. I sat in bed eating a sesame seed bagel while watching Law & Order (OG; season 6, Briscoe & Curtis) on my 2020 M1 MacBook Air (8GB/512/Silver/twist-of-lemon/sweet-n-low). Avid multitasker and glutton for punishment that I am, I was simultaneously...

Hi there everyone, I have a 2020 Macbook Air that I've had since June 2022. I bought the 3 year AppleCare+ warranty on it and everything has been great. I have had the screen replaced once already after I went to use it one day and it was broken (still not sure to this day what happened). Last...

So, after 3 years of Apple Care, I get an offer to purchase AppleCare+. I successfully purchased AppleCare+ for the Mac Pro (2019) and XDR Display. This was not easy. I ran into an initial error message followed by Apple Reps saying the XDR Display did not qualify. In addition, I ran into...

Hello! Just curious, but does anyone know why my Macbook Pro might be draining faster than usual? I have the 14" late 2021 model with 16gb of ram, 512 gb of storage, 8 cores, and AppleCare. I got it new last September, and in the last few weeks, I have noticed that it is draining much faster...

I bought a new iPhone 15 Pro and the guy at the store suggested I get AppleCare+, so I did since I learned it can be paid monthly. From what it sounds like, if any physical damage happens to the phone, I can get it fixed or replaced. With that, is it worth using a case at all? Seems like I can...

Thing still works tho.

I am giving my iPhone 13 to my partner as upgrading to an iPhone 15 Pro. I have AppleCare+ and would like to put a new battery in. It’s at 91% but she plans on keeping it two years so would like to give it with 100% capacity. It says if less than 80% it’s free of charge and £89 out of...

Hey guys. I live in Brazil, here you cannot hire Apple Care for iPhone, but it is covered by apple. I'm trying to hire through the website but an error appears when typing the SN. "Sorry, but we are unable to process your request. Please try again later or contact us". They ask to contact me by...

I sent my MBA M2 in for a covered repair, and they completed it same-day within hours of it arriving. It arrived there at about 4am and was marked completed by 2pm. Based on the symptoms, at minimum they would have had to replace the display, and possibly the M2 chip itself if the graphics...

Recently I crashed my 14PM's back glass when I got out of the car... I have AppleCare and would like to know, with the reduced excess now, if anyone who had their phones Applecared recently share do they still do the back system swap, where they change the whole system including battery, logic...

Hi y'all, in my years I've had my fair share of replacement Apple devices. Currently, I have an iPhone 13 mini that has AppleCare till the end of November 2023. I broke the back a couple of months ago and am holding out getting it repaired as I don't wanna spend money on the repairs all the...

my applecare plus plan renewal day was yesterday 12/23, however on the 20th I found that the payment had been declined (which makes no sense since the billing date is always on the 23rd) my card is working perfectly, but even so it was refused, now my applecare plus is showing as expired, asking...

Hey, everyone! I bought a Mac Studio straight from Apple in June and I can’t get Apple Care for it. I keep getting this message: “This device is not eligible for additional coverage.” I’ve called support, but they couldn’t do anything about it or tell me why this is happening. I’m in Brazil...

I have a IPhone 12 promax that I’ve continually paid for AppleCare+. I work with resin and accidently got resin in the volume rocker. It is now non-functional. Only way to adjust the volume is through software. I would love to pay the $99 and get the phone replaced. Does this kind of damage...

I went to an Apple service center today because my "still-within AppleCare" MBP has a weird spot on the screen. They said they'll fix it for free BUT they also have to fix any other issue they find with the machine, so likely a swollen battery, which means the entire top case, which means the...

I recently purchased the monthly AppleCare+ in the US. When paying for the first month I used a Creditcard, but a few days later i received an email stating it’s important to link my AC+/iPhone/Apple Watch to my Apple ID. Does somebody knows what happens if I don’t link my Apple ID with my...

Curious what everyone's experiences has been with AppleCare. I've always bought them, but very rarely used them. It's starting to feel a bit unnecessary, considering how durable these phones are becoming. Not to mention most people use cases anyway. Have you benefited from AppleCare? Have...

So I purchased an iPhone 13 Pro last year and purchased the 2 year AppleCare + plan. When I upgrade to the 14 Pro, do I get a refund on the unused portion of the AppleCare+ plan? If so, how do I request it?
