Apple Warranty Information 

Oct 21, 2009 06:26 PM

This script retrieves the apple hardware serial number from system_profiler, retrieves the warranty details for that serial number from https://selfsolve.apple.com/Warranty.do and parses various pieces of data from that warranty information. The data retrieved in this version includes: 

 

  • SerialNumber
  • ProductDesc
  • PurchaseDate
  • WarrantyExpires
  • CoverageDesc
  • PHCoverageValue
  • PHCoverageDesc
  • ImageURL
  • PhoneMessage

 

Additional data may be available from the warranty site.

Unfortunately, it appears that this script does not work any longer. I think Apple requires some sort of authentication for this to work. :(

I just got it going.  This is simply amazing and is more useful than I could possibly state in this reply.  Thanks and Bravo!

Cheers,

Bryan

Are these the correct implementation steps?

 

  1. Import the Data class "MacWarranty_dataclass_definition.xml" file.
  2. Run the scripton the clients machines.

I just want to make sure I am doing this correctly.

I've posted an updated version of the script that does not comment out the serialnumber assignment.

My bad. I did that for testing purposes. I tested on a Mac OS  X Server 10.5 Fusion vm, which doesn't have a valid serial number. There was a second line that assigned a valid serial number from another machine, which was removed prior to posting.  I'll update the script shortly.

Nice script! A very useful example.

Why did you comment this line?
#SerialNumber=`system_profiler...
The script doesn't return data until you uncomment this line.
