No, Applecare is purchased once (within the first year) and will only last up to the end of your third year.

i tell you... suddenly *everyone* is a Mac agent..

guys, please make sure you're paying Apple prices or lower... not more

Lower?

how do you get an ACPP? They'll send you a serial or something? A CD? A book? A certificate?

The standard ACPP is a boxed set, with a form + serial number, book of terms & conditions, contact info and a Techtool CD/DVD for troubleshooting.

To me the only important thing is the serial number which allows you to register you machine for Applecare. You can download the Techtool CD from Apple's support site once this is done.

Price wise, the typical list I see on Ebay for AppleCare is US$150-180 for Macbook/iBook. There was a time 1-2 years back when the local Mac retailers were selling ACPP for very cheap, around RM600+ for iBook level coverage but I haven't seen that recently. Standard price from Apple I think is RM979.

ACPP? BUY IT. No questions asked... within that 1 year of your warranty.

Actually ACPP isn't being taxed. Prices at the Apple Store US is very similar to pricing here in Malaysia (US$250 or RM979 for Macbook/iBook ACPP)

Er... a Mac reseller who doesn't know his products? It's ACPP pal, NOT ACCP!

i just registered my applecar plan....but when i entered my serial number into apple's site, it doesnt display the remaining days.....

i suppose u have to wait for a few days b4 they update their system??

can anyone clarify?

No, it does not display the remaining number of days anymore.... it only displays your purchase date and shows whether your machine is covered by Apple's Limited Warranty, or the AppleCare Protection Plan.

oh..okok.......then i should be set...

coz i *think* i saw applecare protection plan.......
will check later....hehehe

thanks for the quick reply.....

Anyone has tried purchasing ACPP from the US. I plan to get one for my iMac. Its cheaper there US$139. Here RM609.

if you buy from the US online store, they will not ship the box to you.
if you have buddies in Singapore, ask them to help you la

I doubt you guys are interested in that

Bro, any difference for MacPro/ Powermac w Display and w/o display?

I dont really need the box. I think they know that but how do you get someone over there to open it up and pass you the serial number. I do not have anyone I know there anymore. The guy at the bookstore I used to work at the uni may have already retired.

BTW, Singapore selling SGD303 which is about RM690.

Well, I bought mine from US. Dirt cheap, I can't get anything close to it here. On top of that the seller shipping me the box, which contain the techtool delux boot disc. Why not

Do u mind sharing will all of us here where u bought your ACPP from in the US? Thanks
