Apple Trackpad Replacement Batteries?

Now that I've been using Apple's Trackpad/Magic Mouse rechargeable batteries for a while, I'm finding them no more robust than third party battery chargers/batteries I've tried in the past. Be that as it may, the tiny charger is convenient and I'd like to continue using it. However, my batteries are beginning to wear out. Tonight's "fully charged" batteries reported only a 68% charge level by my iMac after I inserted them into my Trackpad.
I haven't heard anything about Apple selling replacement batteries. So, does anyone know of third party rechargeable Li-Ion batteries that will work with Apple's chargers?

Dave,
Most high quality brands should work. Be aware that rechargables will never report 100% though due to the difference in 1.2v for rechargables and 1.5v for standard batteries.

Does apple care replace batteries?

My battery status says "replace soon" WIll apple care replace it or do I have to buy a new one? Its only been a year and a half since I got the laptop.
Thanks!

Apple replaces batteries that they deem to be defective.
With 429 cycles, yours is probably depleted (used up) and you'll have to replace it yourself.
You'd have to go to an Apple store an ask the folks there to test it.

Advice on non-Apple branded replacement batteries?

Hi,
I need to get a new battery for my MacBook, and would like to avoid paying $129 for a new one from the Apple Store. I found the following battery on Amazon, and want to find out if anyone has any experience with this brand before I purchase it. Most of the batteries I've found (through a Shopzilla search) are around $65-70. This one is $44! So any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
Here's the link:

Thanks!

My opinion is how can you go wrong for $45? A one year replacement warranty to boot. I think I'm going to get one of these for myself. Thanks for the link!
And better yet and endorsement from Kappy! I'm getting one for sure.

Does Apple still sell replacement batteries for the white 13" MacBook?

You can get a new third party battery fairly cheap on eBay. Every MacBook from 2006 through Mid 2009 except the Late 2008 Aluminum Unibody and the Late 2009 and 2010 White Unibodies use the same A1185 battery.

Lost mouse connection. Replaced batteries but still no recognition. Advice?

I had a message saying 'Lost connection' with mouse icon.
I replaced batteries but still no recognition.
Advice?

First make sure the batteries aren't dead and that the keyboard hasn't already been paired with another device that's in range. If it hasn't, the keyboard should pair automatically when you reboot. You may have to press and hold the power button on the right side of an Apple keyboard until the LED starts flashing.
Otherwise see these support articles:
Mac mini (Mid 2011 and later) and iMac (Late 2012): Bluetooth keyboard may not pair during Setup Assistant
Apple Wireless Keyboard: Difficulty during pairing process
If you have a third-party Bluetooth keyboard, you may need a wired keyboard to complete the pairing process. It's a good idea to keep a cheap wired keyboard and mouse or trackball as backups for a desktop Mac anyway, because Bluetooth isn't completely reliable.

Bluetooth dongle for apple trackpad not working..?

Hi, I recently got this for my macpro desktop 10.6.8 without built in bluetooth :
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/400052901851?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1 497.l2649
Can't seem to get it working with my Apple trackpad, not sure if it's the trackpad or the bluetooth in general.
Anyone got any tips on setting it up please? Tried all the usual setup mentions. I get this message in the network menu:
Many Thanks

Ah ok, yeah removed the network settings.
Still not working. I've got fresh batteries in it. Pairing light is flashing on trackpad.

I have an apple trackpad that shows that it is connected to Bluetooth but it does not respond. I have tried restarting the computer and turning the trackpad off and on but it will not work. Anyone have any ideas on what is going on here?

I have an Apple Trackpad that shows that it is connected with Bluetooth but it is not responding. I've tried restarting the computer, disconnecting and reconnecting and also turning the trackpad on and off but it simply does not respond. Does anyone have any idea on what is going on here?

There are reports of similar behavour but generally it is due to battery connections. Is the indicator light working steadily or does it blink or even not function. Here is the Apple document dealing with some of the problems.

Is your machine within the guarantee period or under Apple care. If so, return it to any apple retailer for examination and possible replacement.

Is it possible that you have a bad bunch of batteries?
My Magic Mouse on one computer and the Mighty Mouse on another use batteries I bought through the Apple store (with a charger). They last a long time.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC500LL/A/apple-battery-charger
Another possiblity is that the mouse is defective. Since the keyboard connects, it has to be the mouse or the batteries.

How can I get Apple to replace my rev a with isight imac?

I'm on my second major repair of my Imac rev a in less than a year. So many horror stories here. How hard is it to get Apple to replace my computer with one that one break down all the time? Any advice would be helpful.
Roxie

I am currently trying my hardest to get a replacement machine. I have had several repairs on my iMac, (6 trips to the apple store!!) but they have told me that my repairs were not major enough to warrant a new machine. I am sending letters and documentation to as many people in customer relations as possible.
Right now my computer is getting repaired. Again.
Good luck.
