Hi Chris and Matthew, I think the CD is a copy of the TechTool Deluxe diagnostic programs for troubleshooting your Mac. I've never had to use this myself for hardware problems. One you are registered fro AppleCare you can always download the latest copy of these programs from the web.
Matthew, you can do the registration yourself entirely on line, but you'll need to be able to get the registration code for your AppleCare protection from the bar code on the package. I've only ever purchased AppleCare from an Apple Store, so when they scan the product this code shows up in the PDF receipt that they email to me (one of the options they offer you at time of purchase.) If you ordered this on the web from Apple this code may have been included in your order shipment email. Also, if you purchase your Mac from an Apple Store and buy AppleCare at the time, they can set up your machine and handle this for you. They'll even do a standard migration from your old computer (Mac or PC), although if a store is busy, and it is at the beginning of the school year with lots of new sales you may have to leave your computer there for a few days if you want them to provide this service (with the data migration -- not the new setup and AppleCare; that you can generally get back in a few hours, even when they are fairly busy). If you can find the bar code, I can point you to the registration pages, and tell you how to locate your machine serial number. Cheers, Esther Chris Blouch wrote: > > Hmm.
