Extend your coverage to three years of service and expert telephone technical support.

One Number to Call for Help
Get direct telephone access to Apple's own technical support group, the people who know your system best. Because Apple creates the computer, the operating system, and many built-in applications, the Mac is a truly integrated system. Just one phone call can help resolve most issues with your Mac because AppleCare representatives can help troubleshoot Apple hardware, the Mac operating system, and many Apple consumer applications, including iLife, iWork, Jam Packs, iChat AV, Mail, Safari, iCal, iSync, AppleWorks, and QuickTime.

Convenient Repair Options
The AppleCare Protection Plan ensures that Apple-certified technicians will perform repairs using genuine Apple parts. With this plan, parts and labor will be covered for three years from the date of purchase of your Apple computer, two years beyond the one-year limited warranty. This plan includes onsite service for desktop computers as well as global repair coverage, which can be very important if you travel abroad.

Coverage Information

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan anytime?

You can purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan anytime within the one-year limited warranty period. Your eligibility for coverage under the AppleCare Protection Plan starts from your hardware purchase date. Apple strongly recommends that you purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan when you purchase your Apple product to maximize the additional benefits provided under the plan.
What service options does the AppleCare Protection Plan offer?
Apple may provide service through one or more of the following options: carry-in service (to Apple retail stores or Apple Authorized Service Providers), direct mail-in service, onsite service (for desktop computers), or Do-It-Yourself (DIY) parts (so you can service your own product).
What does "global repair coverage" mean?
If you take your Apple hardware with you when you travel and happen to need repair service, the AppleCare Protection Plan offers global repair coverage. You can either go to an Apple retail store or contact Apple for information on how to obtain service. Service will be limited to the options available in the country where service is requested. Service options, parts availability, and response time vary according to country. Please see the AppleCare Protection Plan Terms and Conditions for complete details.
When I purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan, do I need to register it?
If you purchase your AppleCare Protection Plan and your covered product separately or elsewhere, you will need to register your AppleCare Protection Plan. Your AppleCare Protection Plan coverage starts from your hardware purchase date. Registering your AppleCare Protection Plan at a later date does not extend your coverage.

5 out of 5 stars Don't go home without it!   September 10, 2008
E. Rosenberg (Norfolk, VA USA)
I generally don't purchase product insurance but decided to get this since I wanted more "hand holding" since I was a recent convert from Windows to an iMac. Registering the product was easy - I even messed up and didn't remember that the serial number to use is on the reciept...kept looking for it on the box. Even when I entered a wrong number, the next day when I figured out my error, Applecare had gone ahead and registered my plan! How it that for having someone there that has some intelligence! So, if you want some piece of mind...buy the plan. If you're a risk taker and just trust that your iMac will be fine...skip it.


4 out of 5 stars Good product slow registration   August 29, 2008
Paul M. St John (CA USA)
I'm pleased with the extended warranty. However, I did have trouble registering the warranty. It took about 10 days before the apple website would accept my information, although it ultimately did and I now have an extended warranty.


5 out of 5 stars Imac Applecare   August 19, 2008
William F. Pareso (Colorado Springs, CO.)
This is a must for every Imac owner. Used it already and spoke with a guy in Houston, Tx. He went above and beyond anything I have experienced to make sure the problem was corrected. Apple is definitely setting the pace for other manufacturers to follow. Amazon has a good price on the product.
