Does AppleCare cover the battery?

I'm not sure if i should be posting this here but i don't know where i would...
My iPod will not turn on anymore, and i was thinking about buying AppleCare and have Apple fix it. I thought of the possibility that the battery in my iPod could be dead (it does not charge nor turn on), and i need to know if AppleCare covers the battery.

Yes, the battery should be covered. But first, did you try doing a reset on the iPod?
Put the hold switch to the OFF/White position. Now toggle it ON/orange then back off again. Then press and hold both the MENU and center buttons on the iPod and hold them for a good 15 seconds or so. Your iPod should reboot starting with the Apple Logo screen.
If it doesn't work the first time, give it a second or third go. Sometimes it takes a few tries.

    Does applecare cover the earpods? If so, how do i complete a claim?

    My understanding is that Applecare does cover the earpods. Simply either take the faulty ones to an Apple Store or, if that it is not convenient, contact Applecare through the Apple website.

    does applecare cover the screen replacement?

    What Apple product? Almost all of them have screens!
    One could infer that since this is the iPhone forum that the device in question is an iPhone.

  • Does AppleCare cover the charger also?

    I bought AppleCare when I purchased my phone. My charger cord is ripping, and I was wondering if AppleCare covered it.

    Yes. However, it does not cover abuse, and the power adapter requires proper care.

  • Does Applecare cover batteries?

    Hi.
    Does Applecare cover your battery, if its life is significantly low (i.e. 30 minutes)? Thanks for the help.

    I was hoping that would be the case too but alas it is not. I called apple to no avail. Need a new battery so i'm going to have to shell out for one.

  • Does applecare cover a replacement battery

    Does applecare cover replacing the battery?  My iPhone 5 battery goes dead very quickly now and I am sure it needs replaced.

    If your phone is still in warranty then a battery replacement is covered.
    Even if it's out of warranty it may still be eligible for a free replacement through Apple's recent program:

  • Does AppleCare cover a broken screen( glass) on iPads?

    Does AppleCare cover cracked screens on iPads

    The standard 1-year Apple Care warranty only covers defects in materials and workmanship, not damage due to accidents.
    Apple's Limited Warranty http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/ for iPad excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications.
    Out-of-Warranty Service
         If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace (Apple doesn't repair) your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below. (The replacement will most likely be a refurbished iPad in a brown box, however, it has a new screen, back and battery.)   
    iPad model
    Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
    iPad mini
    $219
    iPad 3rd, 4th generation
    $299
    iPad 2, iPad
    $249
    A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
    Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service. See http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad

    You may can get the iPad repaired at 3rd party repair sources for less $, however, any remaining Apple warranty will be voided.

  • Does Applecare cover Macbook adapter accidents??

    The part of my Macbook adapter that plugs into the computer fell into a cup of water (fail, I know). As a result, the adapter tip is fried I need a new one and before I start searching for cheaper ones on Amazon or eBay, I need to know: Does Applecare cover Macbook adapter accidents?? I've had my Macbook for less than three years and so I should still be covered.
    Applecare says it covers adapters, but I'm not sure about accidents. Should I go to the Genius bar and say it's an accident? I can't lie about the way the tip of the adapter is certainly fried. This is a different kind of accident. Someone, please help.

    Does Applecare cover Macbook adapter accidents?
    AppleCare doesn't cover accidental damage. Homeowner's insurance, a credit card, or third-party insurance might.

  • Does applecare  cover water damage for iphone 4s?

    does applecare+  cover water damage for iphone 4s?

    Yes it seems so as the description says for up to 2 "incidents." Each incident is $49. More info here:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/S4575?mco=MjU5MTk4MjQ
    Im still sorta thinking about it myself. You'd be basically spending $150 for incident #1 and $50 for incident #2, but during the next 2 years only.

  • Does applecare cover cracks

    does applecare cover cracks

    Cracked screens are not covered by the standard AppleCareor the normal warranty. You will have to pay an out of warranty fee for screen replacement. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

    Does AppleCare cover a broken screen?

    Regular AppleCare will only cover it if the screen broke due to a manufacturing defect. AppleCare+ also covers two accidental damage incidents.

  • Does AppleCare cover my dimming iBook LCD screen?

    Hi - Simple question.
    Does AppleCare cover my dimming iBook LCD screen? I've had the iBook less than two years, and the screen seems about 50% (maybe a little more) as bright as it was when I bought it.
    Note, I also had to have the logic board replaced immediately after purchase, since it blew due to a heat issue. I understand the video module is on the logic board, too. I don't use it more than 1-5 hours, maybe two or three days a week, at a time (I have two other desktop Macs). The real, real problem is, it's my music workstation! Hard to edit notes in Logic Express when-I-can't-see-what-I'm-doing!
    Any thoughts or answers? It's getting to be a real bummer not being able to use the iBook as a portable laptop in any brightly lit area.
    Really, now. Sorry, I can't make the 10AM meeting, it's too bright in the meeting room with those overhead skylights... unless it's cloudy or raining...
    ~Robb

    It certainly should! My iBook screen is as bright as ever--I got it in March of 2004 and none of the updates had any effect on the brightness. So your iBook screen should not be getting dim from normal wear and tear--there is something definitely wrong. If it's not due to a preference setting or something like that, be sure and take it in for diagnosis and repair before your warranty runs out.
    Good luck!

  • MIFI4620LE Jetpack blinking amber light--does this mean the battery is bad? Should the unit operate without the battery installed if plugged in?

    MIFI4620LE Jetpack blinking amber light--does this mean the battery is bad? Should the unit operate without the battery installed if plugged in?

    The MIFI4620LE Jetpack does not work without a battery installed, even when connected to an external power supply.
    I personally think that was a dumb design. I would think the unit would use more electricity when continually charging the battery than just powering the unit it's self, but that's the way Novatel made them.
    If your Jetpack works with the battery installed and connected to an external power supply, but does not power on with power supply disconnected, I would say that the battery is defective or worn out.
    You should be able to go to a nearby Verizon Store and have them either test the battery or put a new one in it to see if it works. Then you will know if you need to spend the $$ for a new battery. OR if you always use your Jetpack at home, or in your car, just use the old battery connect to a power supply or your cigarette lighter and save the cash.
    As the Customer Support person stated, the slow blinking amber light is a normal state when the Jetpack is turned on and connected to Verizon's service.
    I hope this solves your problem.
