So I've received my new Macbook Pro today and I looked around and found nothing about Applecare in the package. Is the Applecare information supposed to come separately or am I missing something? Sorry if this has been posted before. Thanks.

Did you purchase Applecare? You get a warranty for one year, Applecare extends said warranty for 2 more years thereafter.
You have to pay a couple (few) hundred dollars more for Applecare after the first year.

Does that make sense?

Yes I already purchased it online when I ordered my MBP which I why I was expecting something from it.
 
I purchased through HE via Telesales, and they told me that I should get some documentation that shows I am eligible for 3 years parts and labour ( which is automatically included at no extra cost through HE ). I did not get any documentation stating AppleCare, I have called AppleCare but the line is always busy and says tat the estimated waiting time is 15 minutes or less :rolleyes:.

I ordered an iMac a few months ago with Apple Care, and I received a small box with the Apple Care certificate, documentation, and CD a few days after my computer arrived. I'd say if you don't receive the Apple Care stuff within 1 week, give Apple a call.

Ah ok then ... see r.j.s.'s response here.
Did you purchase Applecare with it?

If you did, it may already be registered - check you serial number at apple.com/support

You generally don't get anything when you do it that way. Not even a cheesy sticker or a kick in the pants.
 
Alright I checked out the support site and it seems its registered already. Thanks guys. I did get 2 apple stickers in the box actually though I have no idea what they are for lol.

Put one sticker on your car, the other anywhere you like.

Like it was said above, you should get a CD in a few days.

That's why I asked.

You don't know?

One is for your a** and the other is for your forehead ;)

Not really... please, don't leave your house looking like that :)

I would go to an apple store and ask them they would know I think it should come with it though but I have never bought a new mac
 
I received a mailing envelope with AppleCare info in it a few days after my computer arrived. Even though it said it had shipped days before the computer did.
