APPLESerial 73303403 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: Apple Computer, Inc.
Class 009 - Electrical & Scientific Apparatus
Filed Mar 30, 1981
Registered Jan 25, 1983
This record shows that the mark “APPLE” was once registered on the Principal Register but is now dead because the owner, Apple Computer, Inc., failed to file a Section 8 declaration in 1989. The registration covered class 009, specifically computers and computer programs recorded on magnetic discs, with first use in January 1977. A similar name would raise the closest concern for electronic or computer‑related goods, especially software or hardware, because that is the exact scope shown. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “APPLE” in all contexts. The prosecution history indicates a straightforward registration that was later cancelled; no Supplemental Register activity is involved. The last meaningful event was the cancellation on June 21, 1989, and no enforcement actions or oppositions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the main risk lies in the computer‑software and hardware market, where this cancelled mark still signals prior use.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
