How much does it cost to replace 1st gen ipod battery

Was just wondering if it is actually worth replacing the battery on an ipod touch 1st gen (due to cost) or just get a more up to date model ? Does anyone know how much apple charge for this service ?
Thanks

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one with a new battery for $79. They do not fix yours. I would say not worth it

  • HT4060 How much does it cost to replace an iPad 2 battery?

    My iPad 2 is almost three years old and won't recharge. How much does it cost to replace the battery? I have data in my apps and games that I would like to keep. If I buy a new iPad coming soon, will I lose all of my in-apps and in-game data? Is it cost effective to replace the battery? Looking for advice. Thanks.

    Your one-year warranty includes replacement coverage for a defective battery. You can extend your coverage to two years from the date of your iPad purchase with the AppleCare Protection Plan for iPad. During the plan’s coverage period, Apple will replace the battery if it drops below 50% of its original capacity. If it is out of warranty, Apple offers abattery replacement for $99, plus $6.95 shipping, subject to local tax. Apple disposes of your battery in an environmentally friendly manner.
    You have to be the judge of whether it is cost effective to you. You can backup all of your app data with iTunes or iCloud and restore from the backup if you get a new iPad - and then all of your data and game saves should be restored. You should not lose your in-app purchases either as they are stored in the backup.
    If you have had an iPad for almost 3 years, I would hope that you have been backing up all along. If you sync with iTunes all of you apps and other media are stored in there, and iTunes has been backing up your iPad when you sync. Paid content can be downloaded again for free (in most cases) as long as you use the same Apple ID that you bought it with.

  • How much does it cost to replace a smashed ipod touch 4th gen 8g screen?

    I was getting my iPod out of my bag when I didn't notice someone running towards me, they bumped into me and I dropped my iPod by mistake and when I picked it up there was a massive crack in the screen, does my apple warranty cover this or will I have to pay to get the screen replaced? if so, how much will it cost?

    This is a kind of bad crack, but its not directly in the screen, so i cant tell you an exact price. if you want go to a local store who fixes devices or just go to the apple store. also its not like right throught the screen so you might just be better keeping it like it is. BUT again, if its the first crack you ever had on it there is a good chance they will fix it for free

    The glass is part number 922-9795 and dvwarehouse sells it.  So that might give you an estimate of the minimum cost for replacement (unless you do it yourself).

  • How much does it cost to replace the Ipad glass? Min and Max?

    How much does it cost to replace the Ipad glass? Min and Max?

    Apple does not repair iPads, but will replace the entire iPad for a flat fee. If you have AppleCare+ on the iPad, the cost will be relatively minimal; $49 in the US. Otherwise, see the Service Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/service/faq/
    There are independent iPad repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipad repair".  You can also look for parts and instructions and do the repair yourself. Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPad serviced by an unauthorized shop or perform your own repair, you will get no further support from Apple.
    Regards.
