    iPad Pro iPad cracked randomly

    It’s been 24 days since I’ve purchased this iPad (from Australia). It was completely okay last night and when I woke up this morning I see an edge-to-edge crack on it. No impact or anything. It was put right next to me and no one touched it, it didn’t fall. This seems like a defect to me. I...

I purchased a brand new iPhone 15 Pro Max thru Apple on Friday (3 days ago); I picked it up on Saturday at my local Apple Store, and put in in a nice BullStrap leather case & screen protector right away (I protect my equipment like one of my children) -...

    Will Apple repair/change my iPhone 13 Pro Max with cracked screen?

    Dear friends, after roughly one year of using my 13 Pro Max naked with only a screen protector, a weird fall managed to damage my screen. It fell almost vertical on the bottom right corner and the screen slightly chipped there and propagated energy into an oblique hairline crack to the opposite...

    After deciding and think about it, I bought AppleCare+ for my MBP 14"

    I recently bought MBP 14" and was undecided if AC+ was worth it, after researching many internet pages and YT videos one thing was clear, if your MacBook costs ~$1000 is not worth it, if your MacBook costs ~$2000 is totally worth it. Previously I had MBP 13" (Early 2015) and never needed any...

    Other Can one have both apple care plus and Verizon insurance?

    I just ordered the blue 1tb pro max from my local Verizon store, and I added Verizon insurance while there. After I got home, I read good and bad stories about assurion and mostly good experiences about apple care. So, I wanted to find out if I can pay for both without any issues.

    iPhone 13 mini AppleCare fulfillment delayed when purchased with new phone?

    I purchased 2yr AppleCare+ with my 13 but did not receive any coverage confirmation email nor is my AppleCare reflected on mysupport.apple.com nor on the phone itself (though I gather this latter place is expected). When I purchased AppleCare with my previous devices I was emailed an "AppleCare+...

    iPhone 12 mini Purchase AppleCare+ after 60 days?

    Here is my dilemma… I currently have an iPhone 12 Mini with T-Mobile and I have their insurance plan which includes AppleCare+ with it. I kind of want to cancel their insurance and just buy the AppleCare+ directly from Apple. I’m over the 60 days. I read on Macrumors sometime ago that you can...

    I am buying a pre-owned Mac mini from a Mac repair shop. It’s a mom and pop place as opposed to Best Buy or the like. The Mac mini has applecare+ on it and is covered thru July of 2022. I was under the impression that I had to have that applecare+ transferred to me by the previous owner (whoever...
