IPOD Touch battery life is too short. Can I replace the battery?

My son's IPOD Touch has a battery life of about 30 minutes.  It is a refurbished model and wondered if there was a way to upgrade the battery?

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

A third-party place like the following will replace your battery for less. Google for more.

Replace the battery yourself if you are up to it. A replacement caost about $10

    Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
    If this does not help, setting it up as new device without using any backup would be the next step:

    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 a battery replacement for $99, plus $6.95 shipping, subject to local tax. Apple disposes of your battery in an environmentally friendly manner.

  • HT3965 I got what appears to be a reconditioned (pre-owned) iPod Touch 4 for Christmas.  How can I change the Apple ID on tis device so I can use it with my iTunes Acct and Wi-Fi network?  Thanks.

    I received what appears to be a reconditioned iPod Touch 4th for Christmas.  How do I change the Apple ID on the device to my ID so I can use my iTunes account?  Thanks for any help/

    It would probably be best to attach the iPod to a computer and restore it. This way you'll know it's wiped clean. Then, when you start up the iPod it will ask you for your Apple ID.

  • Can I replace the battery of my laptop? If so, where can I find one?

    I've had my Acer Aspire M5-481PTG laptop for about 3 years now so the battery life is kinda short. It only lasts about 2 to 2 1/2 hours. It used to last like 6-7 hours when fully charged. Where can I find a replacement for my battery?

    Hi there! So I started by visiting this website http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/drivers and went throught the documentation of the laptop to pinpoint the battery product model number. Aspire M3 and M5 series use the same kind of battery. From my understanding, the battery model number AP12A3i is best suited for your laptop. You can view the battery in this link http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Genuine-Original-Battery-For-Acer-Aspire-Timeline-M3-M5-AP12A3i-AP12A4i-3ICP7-67-90-KT-00303/1944469225.html And remember, anytime just google ap12a3i battery and you should be able to find a convenient store! I very much hope this would help and if it does, dont forget to give a kudo and mark this as a solution!

  • Satellite L300 - Can I replace the battery?

    Hello,
    I need your help. I have a Toshiba Satellite L300 and I have a problem with the battery, it discharges in a short period. The battery model no. is pa3534u-1brs. I wonder if I can replace this battery with other one that lasts more than 2 hours.
    Do you know any thing about that?
    Can you help?
    Thanx in advance.

    Hi
    Of course you can replace the battery Why not?
    You can replace the battery with the same one or another one that is compatible with your notebook.
    I would recommend contacting your local authorized service provider. The technicians recommend a battery to you.
    Alternative you search on the Toshiba page for compatible batteries. Just few clicks you have to make! ;)

  • Can I replace the battery in my HP Notebook?

    Battery on my Pavillion dv5 notebook won't charge beyond 53%.  Can I get a new one installed?

    Marble,
    Welcome to the HP Forum.
    Yes, you can replace the battery.
    You want to check the battery first -- and make sure the issue is not a faulty or weak charger / AC adapter.
    The following will help with both concerns:
    Testing and Calibrating the Battery (Windows 7)
    Testing and Using the AC Power Adapter
    Be sure, when and if you do buy a batter and / or a new AC adapter that you buy for quality and not for price.
    Be very careful of cheap knock-off brands sold online:  just because the name of the website has the word 'hp' in it, the product they are selling you might be a cheap, poorly made, apt to blow up, piece of junk.
    If you want to be sure the product you buy is made for your computer, buy the HP product for your computer.
