Hi guys, i've got an iMac Applecare and I'd like to register it with my extreme airport station to upgrade to 3 year warranty. I was trying to do it on apple support website, but it won't let me.

I was wondering if i need to register it with imac applecare or shall I just present applestore the iMac applecare when i need to get my airport station repaired?
 
You don't need to register it. It's automatically covered when based on the iMac coverage. Technically you might need to prove that you use the AirPort base station with the covered iMac, but in practice that's not an issue.
 
AppleCare Protection Plans (APP's) are for one type of equipment and one serial number only. For example, if you bought a second iMac, you'd need an additional APP for that serial number. You cannot use the iMac APP for an Airport Extreme. In point of fact, I couldn't even find APP for Airport Extreme on the Apple site.

If you read the applecare agreement, you will find airport extreme, keyboard, and mouse etc. are covered automatically by iMac Applecare when you use these devices with the covered iMac.

You don't need to register it. It's automatically covered when based on the iMac coverage. Technically you might need to prove that you use the AirPort base station with the covered iMac, but in practice that's not an issue.

Thanks. That's what I'd like to know. Thanks a lot!!
