The problem with the Apple symbol in a font is a trademark one, not a copyright one. So if you can find it in a font, you'll be able to use it withotu any legal problems, provided you acknowledge it as a trademark in the frontmatter. (But, of course, IANAL.)
An SVG image can be vector artwork, and so scales nicely without bitmap effects.
Personally, I'd add the apple symbol to the font I was already embedding, but that is a tricky business. (FontForge is the tool you need. And, of course, a source for the symbol in vector form.)
