3.3 Technical Support
During the Coverage Period, Apple will provide you with access to telephone and web-based
technical support resources. Technical support may include assistance with installation,
launch, configuration, troubleshooting, and recovery (except for data recovery), including
storing, retrieving, and managing files; interpreting system error messages; and determining
when hardware service is required. Apple will provide support for the then-current version
of the supported software, and the prior Major Release. For purposes of this section, “Major
Release” means a significant version of software that is commercially released by Apple in a
