Troubleshooting not Displaying or Missing Warranty on a Mac
In order to address the issue of your Mac not displaying or missing warranty information, it is important to note that if you have purchased your device from authorized Apple retailers such as FPT Shop or F.Studio, the product is guaranteed to be genuine and distributed in the Vietnamese market. Therefore, there is no need to panic. By following a few simple steps, you can easily update the warranty information for your Mac and ensure that it is fully covered. Now, let’s identify the root of this problem.
According to Apple, it may take up to 5 days for warranty information to be fully displayed on the homepage after activating a product. Additionally, if the Apple activation server is undergoing maintenance or experiencing an error, this may also prevent the information from being displayed.
There are a couple of common reasons why an Apple device may not be recognized by the system. One possibility is that the device has been inactive for an extended period of time, possibly due to being in inventory or being received as a gift but not used. In this case, the system may not recognize the device’s serial number. Another possibility is that the device is activated but not logged into an Apple ID account.
You can now have complete confidence that your Mac is free from any issues. The only remaining task is to update the serial number of the device on Apple’s system. To accomplish this, you have two options: you may seek assistance from the store where you originally purchased the machine, or you can send a copy of the purchase invoice directly to Apple’s support department for them to resolve the matter.
