My 3-year warranty which expires in 3 months

I bought a T500 on May 19, 2009 which came with a 3 year warranty.

I did glance guarantee upward on the Lenovo Web site and it shows that the warranty expires on February 16, 2012.

Is this right? will call/E-mail lenovo to remedy this problem?

Another Question. I have a 4 GB of RAM, but in Task Manager it showing 2.5 GB RAM on Vista 32 bit. Is this right? What should I do?

chukwe - welcome to the forum!

regardless of the system in a store or purchase online, I suggest call lenovo to inform them of the gap.   If you purchased from a reseller, they will probably ask send you a copy of the invoice showing the date of purchase.   right of guarantee can then add the quarter missing to your warranty.

about your memory, 32-bit vista and XP can only use total about 3 GB.   the other 0.5 GB is used by the ATI GPU for switchable graphics.   the only way to use all 4GB in your system is to install an OS 64 - bit or one 32-bit Windows server 2003 or 2008 versions.   the likely result of forum to research in many threads on the same subject.

  • Pavilion F019wm 17: Warranty says expired but bought more than 3 years warranty

    Hello!

    I bought the HP Care Pack Services last November, but I get messages from HP Support Assistant saying that my warranty has expired.

How can I update my information to show the extension of coverage? Thank you.

  • warranty has expired

    Hey everybody,

    I met a problem and I would be grateful any feedback anyone can give me.

    Last July 2013 year I picked up a 4-1995ca computer laptop HP ENVY new from London Drugs. I was satisfied by the specifications for the price I paid, but in a few weeks, he has problems. First the sound card has acted up, glitching audio and stall. Then shortly after that I started to have problems of General hard disk with corruption in car and other issues. I could temporarily push the issues by making the resets to the factory, but eventually, the problems have become so consistent that I contacted HP support.

    HP support has been very helpful and offered repair the laptop immediately. They sent me a box, I sent to the computer and received back all in a period of 2 weeks with all issues apparently resolved. I was very impressed and grateful with the level of service.

    Unfortunately since last week (August 15, 2014) I started the drive problems hard experienceing again. I tried a factory reset, but now the computer does nothing. It starts at an illuminated white screen and nothing else. I can access the system BIOS (ESC and F2 then on start up), but no other tools of recovery, so in my opinion, there is nothing I can do about the situation without professional help or tools.

    So here's my question:

    My warranty has expired as of July 11, 2014. Without it I can't livechat with HP support and he said to call the help line may require a fee. Fair is fair in my book which concerns the guarantee being outdated, but I think that my current problem may be linked to the previous one for which I was under warranty and should be resolved. Given the possible connection and the fact that I am only 1 month out of warranty, there at - it a way to take this with HP?

    An additional question

    Ideally, I would like to get a free repair of HP, but I have to consider alternatives. I could get a new laptop low range for about $400, but it would be lower specs than my desire. I have also a new HDD and copied to my old partition but it would cost about $ 200 because I have to get it professional because I don't have the tools. The last option is to pay for repairs of HP but I can't find much information online prices and given what happened the last time, I'm a bit wary of the abandonment of money on it.

    Thank you for taking the time to read, and I'd appreciate any help you can offer.

    can I still add to apple care if the warranty has expired?

    No, if it is out of warranty, if it is for a Mac: http://www.apple.com/support/products/mac.html

    The AppleCare Protection Plan can be purchased as long as your Mac is still covered by the limited warranty of one year.

  • Re: Qosmio X 500 - 116 maximum 3 years warranty Extension

    My 3 years warranty toshiba comes to an end in March of this year (I had extended from 1 to 3 years).

    I called toshiba today to see if I could buy an another 1 or 2 years, but he said 'Sorry' but no. It seems that 3 years is the maximum that they will go. I was a little disappointed, but the half he expected because of the age of the laptop.

    Overall, my X 500-116 has played very well in the last 3 years and I had no major problems.

    Guess I'll have to fingers and hope everything continues to work very well.

    Although "Swords clods right" will probably happen and a serious and expensive problem going on as soon as the warranty expires.

    So keep your fingers crossed that it will not happen, and as you know... nobody knows what will happen in the future ;)

  • My ip6glass Panel is the lifting of his body. There is a black spot on the left corner. How much would it cost if I go to the Apple Store because my warranty is expired. I heard that they would replace it for free even if the warranty has expired. True or

    Sorry, but at least the screen needs to be replaced. Do you have the battery exchanged in the past?

    Visit an Apple Retail Store or an authorized Apple Apple Service Provider next to your place to achieve this.

    You can also contact the Apple Support to send it.

    Pricing of the service repair screen

    Repair and replacement costs depend on your iPhone and your AppleCare products cover model. Apple runs a diagnostic test to determine if your iPhone has suffered additional damage. If she has, or if she needs more repairs, you may have to pay out-of-warranty service. Accidental damage is not covered by the Apple one-year limited warranty.

    Model Screen repair cost
    iPhone 6 $109
    iPhone iPhone 6s 6 Plus, iPhone 5 s, iPhone 5, iPhone 5 $129
    iPhone 6 sec more $149

    In addition, a $6.95 shipping charges if necessary. Fees are in US Dollars and exclude tax. The price is for the service through Apple. The final service charge we charge will be determined during testing. Pricing and terms vary for the service by an Apple authorized service provider.

  • X201purchased - question about 3 years warranty extension

    Ordered a 201 X about three weeks through Lenovo online as well as a base for 3 years warranty extension. Have had the laptop for two weeks, no problems so far.

    When I checked my status of the guarantee on the website, it is only showing the standard 1 year warrantly, for example. my warranty ends on Sept-2011.

    Obviously, I'm going to need to call customer service to get the problem fixed, but my question is, is the 3-year warranty extension I bought 3 additional years of coverage added to 1 year warranty by default, for example. my warranty would end on seven-2014 or is the extended warranty only for a total of 3 years, which means that the coverage would end the seven-2013?

    Thanks in advance for any clarification on this.

    It takes approximately 2 to 4 weeks for warranty upgrade to show through.

    average of 3 years 3 years total, not 1 + 3 years upgrade.

  • Why is there only 1 year warranty on laptops Edge

    The T-series have a 3 year warranty and is almost twice the price. Does it mean that an E530 has a third only a lifetime compared to a standard T530?

    I wanted to tell the international basic warranty that comes with these laptops. I am aware that you can extend the warranty of any laptop for additional payment.

    In a large part, it has to do with price points or marketing if you wish. The three-year warranty is not really 'free' the series T, W and X, which usually include the standard warranty. the extra cost is not so remarkable in the price of the end, and especially in the case of the T, they are systems "bread & butter" that sells a Lenovo for businesses.

  • 1 year warranty by Apple

    Hi guys!

    I have a small curiosity: my iPhone 6 is always up to the 1st year international warranty granted by Apple.

    I went with my phone to the Romania of Service Orange with two problems: I heard weird noises inside and the battery is a bit empty. They have cleaned the walls and now is ok, too, they said that the battery is ok.

    I want to know if they can repair an iPhone even if I'm the 1st year warranty Apple. As far as I know, any iPhone in the 1st year is changed with a refurbished nine or swap phone.

    Kind regards!

    What Apple, or Apple authorized Service providers do with the device is based on the problem. Some things can be repaired, but something needs to be replaced. This decision made by Apple or the Apple authorized service provider. It is not a decision to cover than anything it either under warranty is replaced due to a problem. In addition, once outside the guarantee, the only option, with the exception of a screen repair or battery problem, is a one off replacement warranty, at a new reduced cost.

  • Is it safe to have it checked by my macbook and repaired in one of the distributors in Dominican Republic, using my one year warranty Apple?

    May 2015, I bought a MacBook Pro in New York. I loved, but yestarday, April 2016, out of nowhere, the screen has decided to go all crazy. She has never fallen, or drowned or had any kind of accident. I live in Dominican Republic so I can't take it to an Apple store. The only thing I can do is bring to one of the Apple here distributors in the country. I want to just make sure that it will be in good hands and it will be fixed. They guy at the store iZone said it might be a manufacturing problem and that I still have my one year warranty we free repair. But still, it is safe to do in a store that is not exactly "Apple"?

    The Apple store closest to me is about 150 miles. I use an authorized Apple dealer, and they make my warranty repairs. Never had a problem.

    Hello
    Yesterday, I bought a new laptop C660 T. For this laptop is a guarantee of 2 years as standard with PC Magazine in my country. Also, I bought an extended warranty (from 2 to 3 years) for this laptop.
    But when I finished first registration for 2 years, there was only one year warranty in the e-mail message. When I finished the second record (extended from 2 to 3 years warranty) mail for completion message shows from 1 to 2 years warranty, the same on the official page of toshiba, where is my laptop.

    & Thaks to answer.

    If you check this forum category you will find that this e-mail address is displayed very often and it must be official email address of Toshiba.
