Battery at 89 percent health -- can i get a new one?
Hi!
I have a T61p, and after almost a year, I've noticed battery time is running shorter. I used to be able to keep the computer running for three hours on my settings, but now it runs for about 2h 20 minutes. When I do
grep -F capacity: /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info
in gnu/linux, I get
design capacity: 84240 mWh
last full capacity: 75790 mWh
which means the battery is at 89.97 % health.
The battery is still in its warranty period. Is this decrease in capacity enough to get a new one?
I can't check battery health in windows, as I threw that OS out and can't get it back without ruining my GNU/Linux installation.
Thanks for help!

Batteries are consumable items, and the condition you have described is a result of normal wear and tear..... so, no.

I don't know whether they are sold separately, but an Apple store could answer your question.

my ipod 4g has the apple care for 1 year can you get a new one for it because something happen to it the mirrer broke yes or no
AIf the iPod broke because of a defect then yes, Apple will replace the iPod if it is within the warranty period. A broken/cracked screen is not covered. However, sometimes if you make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store they will exchange your iPod at no cost if it has a broken/cracked screen.

I have an iMac (the desktop) I've stupidly left the cable you plug the monitor into the wall with there. What are they called and where can I get a new one?
Presumably the mains cable, which you can get from an Apple Store.

A warranty does not cover physical damage. Did you have AppleCare +?
AppleCare+ doesn't cover loss or theft, only accidental damage. -
if i had my iphone 4s stolen and i had apple care can i get a new one for free
Apple care does not cover theft. It covers manufacturing defects for warranty. You need to contact the police and report it to them. Only insurance would replace a phone, and usually with a deductible. There is no free phone in your future.

My apple ipod shuffle's ear headset has lost..And My ipod is in warranty period..So Can I get a new one for free or i should bye ?
Frankly just about any headset with the proper size connection will likely work. We like ear buds with soft coverings so even when we get a hard headset with a player we swap them out. While Apple might just possibly give you a set for free since they are not an expensive item, loss is not covered by warranty. If you're a long drive from an Apple Store it might cost you more in fuel and vehicle wear and tear than going to a local store and buying a comfortable replacement.

I wouldn't say that you cant get a new one. It is because there is a one year warranty and if it didn't expire yet then you could still trade in your ipod touch. If your warranty expired than just buy a new one and install it or get a professional to do it.

How can I repair my IPod n still have all my information in it or can i get a new one but still with all my information for how much
- Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours. Apple does not transfer any data.

- To backup all your data to computer follow the instructions here. However, do not restore from backup until you have the replacement/repaired iPod. -

The on/off button on my 6th gen iPod nano recently got spoilt and I sent it back to the shop for a repair/exchange a week ago. Now I have just found out about the new 7th gen iPod nano and I am wondering, can I get the new one as a replacement?
No. You can turn your 6G Nano in to be recycled at your local Apple Store for a 10% discount towards the purchase of a new one. Otherwise, your only other option would be to sell the iPod on Craigslist or eBay and use the proceeds from the sale towards the purchase of the new 7G nano.

I recently had my cracked iPhone 4 screen fixed, the lady who did it told me my light sensor was broken.. How can I get a new one installed?? i noticed there was something wrong when I talk on the phone it will mute, hold or speaker the calls. It's very annoying how can I fix the light sensor
Was your cracked screen fixed by an Authorized Apple Service Provider? I may be wrong, but I didn't think they fixed such things.
Regardless of who fixed it, and whether it was an authorized repair or not, I recommend bringing it back to the agency that fixed it in the first place. But note if the repairing agency is not authorized by Apple, you may not want to spend much more money on repairs there for this unit. -
What do i do if my ipod touch is stolen? Can i get a new one with no payment?

No, you can't get a new one for free because it's stolen.
