Wendy, yes, applecare is limited. See this apple page: http://tinyurl.com/2yf3yu In discussions with Apple Inc, it appears that Applecare is not honored world wide. The devil is in the details. I would call Apple Australia and transfer the Applecare by phone. Lee Ankara ==================== Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2007 07:42:18 +0400 From: "Wendy S.

We are having trouble registering Applecare here on a MacBook Pro. The laptop was purchased in Australia along with the Applecare but the owner and laptop reside in Mauritius. However when we try to register it online it comes up with a message that says 'this service is not available in your country' or something like that. This is when I am using a .mac Email address as the registered address. Any ideas?
