Obtaining service for your Apple product after an expired warranty

Learn about your options for getting service and parts for Apple devices that are past their warranty period.

Owners of iPhone, iPad, iPod, Mac, or Apple TV products may obtain service and parts from Apple service providers, including Apple Retail Stores and Independent Repair Providers, for a minimum of 5 years from when Apple last distributed the product for sale.

Service and parts may be obtained for longer, as required by law or for up to 7 years, subject to parts availability. Additionally, Mac notebooks may be eligible for an extended battery-only repair period for up to 10 years from when the product was last distributed for sale, subject to parts availability.

Apple discontinues hardware service for certain technologically-obsolete products. Your device is supported by ongoing OS updates and backed by a network of more than 5,000 Apple-certified repair locations that you can count on if something unexpected happens.

Apple and the environment

Apple devices are designed to be long-lasting. They are made of durable materials that are heavily-tested in our Reliability Testing Lab. The longer you use your device, the better it is for the planet. For more information about Apple and the environment, go to https://www.apple.com/environment.

About vintage products

For products purchased in France, see Statutory Warranties of Seller and Spare Parts. Owners of new iPhone or Mac notebook products purchased after December 31, 2020 in France, may obtain service and parts from Apple or Apple service providers for 7 years from the date the product model was last supplied by Apple for distribution into France.

About obsolete products

Mac Service and Repair

Learn how to get your Mac desktop or Mac notebook fixed and how much it will cost.

How do I get service for my Mac?

To get service for your Mac, you can make a reservation at an Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. Make sure you know your Apple ID and password before your appointment. Or, if you have a Mac notebook, contact us and we’ll send you a box you can use to ship it to an Apple Repair Center. We’ll return your repaired product to you as quickly as possible. Depending on where you get service, you might be able to check the status of your repair online.

Hardware service may no longer be available for older Macs. Contact your local provider to inquire about available service options.

How much will it cost?

There’s no charge if the issue is covered under warranty, AppleCare+, or consumer law. If your issue isn’t covered, the price depends on the type of repair. Ask your service representative for an estimate.

Battery service

If you’re experiencing an issue with your battery, your Mac notebook might not require a repair. These tips show you how to maximize your battery performance. If you can’t turn on your Mac or if the screen turns black, follow these steps to resolve the issue.

Your Mac notebook battery service might be covered by warranty, consumer law, or AppleCare+. These prices are for out-of-warranty service. We might need to test your product to determine the final service fee.

Is your Mac covered by AppleCare+?

AppleCare+ gives you expert technical support and hardware coverage from Apple, including accidental damage protection. Each incident of accidental damage is subject to a service fee.

If you don’t have AppleCare+, you’ll pay the out-of-warranty fee for that type of repair.

Model	Screen or external enclosure only (with AppleCare+)	Other damage (with AppleCare+)
All Mac models	$ 99	$ 299

These fees apply in the United States. All prices are in U.S. dollars ($) and are subject to tax. AppleCare+ does not cover excessive physical damage, including catastrophic damage due to liquid contact or submersion, or damage caused by the presence of hazardous materials. Devices modified by unauthorized service providers are not eligible for AppleCare+ accidental damage coverage unless all original parts are returned to Apple.

Not sure if you’re covered? Check if you have AppleCare+ coverage by entering your Mac’s serial number.

Get ready for service

Before you return your Mac to us, be sure to enable FileVault and back up your data. You may need the backup if your Mac needs to be reformatted during the repair process. Apple isn’t responsible for lost data.

Apple Limited Warranty and proof of purchase

The Apple Limited Warranty covers your Mac and the accessories that come with it against manufacturing defects for one year from the date you bought your product. The Apple Limited Warranty is in addition to rights provided by consumer law.

Our warranty doesn’t cover damage caused by accidents or unauthorized modifications. See the warranty for complete details. You can check your coverage status online and update your proof-of-purchase information if there’s an error in our records. If our warranty, your AppleCare plan, or consumer law don’t cover your repair, you’ll pay out-of-warranty fees.

Consumer law

Your country or region might have consumer-protection laws for some repair issues.

Our guarantee after service

We guarantee our service, including replacement parts, for 90 days or the remaining term of your Apple warranty or AppleCare plan coverage, whichever is longer. We offer this whenever you get service from us or from an Apple Authorized Service Provider. This is in addition to rights provided by consumer law.
