Why you'll love a Mac

A Mac takes support to a higher level.

Because Apple makes both the hardware and software, we know the Mac inside and out. So anytime you need a little help or if you just want to learn how to get the most out of your Mac, you’ll know where to go.

It comes with award-winning support.

A PC is loaded with software made by different companies. The computer itself is made by yet another company. So getting help can be a frustrating game of who-to-call. Not so with a Mac. Simply visit an Apple Store or make one call to AppleCare whenever you have questions.

We’ll move your files for you.

Purchase a One to One membership at the same time you get your new Mac from an Apple Retail Store, and you won’t have to spend hours transferring all your stuff. Just bring in your old PC, and we’ll do it for you. A Specialist will move all your files — email, contacts, music, photos, documents, calendar, desktop items — and make sure everything is exactly where it should be. One to One costs just $99, and it includes a year’s worth of one-hour, face-to-face training sessions. It’s like getting a head start before you start.

We’re here to help.

Learn everything you need to know from the people who know everything. Feel free to contact Apple’s award-winning technical support team any way you like. Talk to an Apple Specialist on the phone, on your Mac in a live chat, or in person at an Apple Retail Store. Most issues can be resolved with a single phone call, chat, or visit.

Genius Bar

Geniuses are standing by.

If you have technical questions about your Mac, the Genius Bar is the place for free advice, insight, and friendly, hands-on technical support. Geniuses use their impressive knowledge to answer technical questions, troubleshoot problems, and perform repairs — all at your neighborhood Apple Retail Store.

Scheduling an appointment online with a Genius is easy. Select the state and the Apple Retail Store where you'd like to make a reservation. Choose a time that works for you. Back to top

It’s easy to learn.

Learning how to use a new computer can be intimidating. We get that. So stop by an Apple Retail Store and sit in on complimentary workshops. Or buy a One to One membership with your new Mac from an Apple Retail Store or the Apple Online Store for training with an expert.

Workshops

Attend workshops that do wonders.

Learn something new about your Mac by taking a complimentary workshop at an Apple Retail Store.

You’ll learn Mac basics, find out how to use Mac applications, and discover new tips and tricks.

Learn your way with One to One.

One to One training will help you do more with your Mac than you ever thought possible. First, we'll set up your email, transfer your photos, music, and other files, and show you how to keep everything in sync with iCloud. Then, we'll work with you to create a curriculum tailored to your goals, learning style, and experience level. One to One costs just $99 for a full year and is available only at the time you purchase a new Mac from the Apple Retail Store or the Apple Online Store.
