Is it possible to replace the battery of a MacBook Air?

hello, I just want to know if I can replace the battery of my MacBook Air?

If an older Air out of warranty, yes, however, only Apple sells genuine Apple batteries.   Aftermarket batteries have many issues I wont list.
It depends on your skills, ifixit.com has many videos on doing things yourself.    While I consider changing a battery incredibly easy, its a "hard" skill for some.
So your question is subjective to be certain.
IS is replaceable? yes, its a consumable and meant to be replaced.

  • How do i know if I need to replace the battery in my MacBook Pro?

    How do i know if I need to replace the battery in my MacBook Pro?

    There are a few ways (none of which are covered in the above link). On more recent OS X versions, when you click the battery icon in the menu bar you may see a "Service Battery" or "Replace Now" message. If you aren't seeing that, the system probably thinks the battery is fine.
    Also, in your System Information utility, there is a Power section that provides Health information for the battery, with a Condition status and Cycle Count. If the Condition is Normal and your battery is under 300 cycles (for removable batteries) or 1000 cycles (for non-removable batteries) it is not time to replace it yet.
    But of course, the other time to replace it is if you don't think you're getting the runtime you want out of it.
    If none of those is a problem, don't worry about it.

    Hello Samir,
    Apple has/had a program in place for the hinge issue on the 1st (and I believe 2nd) generation MacBook Air. Even if the machine is currently out of warranty. I'm a bit foggy on the specifics as it was never itemized with the normal repair extension programs - http://www.apple.com/support/exchange_repair/
    Your best bet is to contact AppleCare and inquire for more specifics.

  • Why is the battery on my macbook air draining so fast?

    Hi there:
    I have a 2 week new Macbook Air 13'', mid 2013 model. Yesterday, after being prompted to update to the latest of Mavericks, i have unplugged the laptop and left it in sleep mode. Overnight it went from 100% charged to 0.
    Has anyone experienced something similar?
    Any help, or advice are appreciated.

    You have a 14 day exchange period.  Take care of that now before time runs out.
    100 to 0 overnight on sleep shouldn't happen.
    However dont leave your Air on sleep overnight, turn it off.

  • Is it possible to change the name of my MacBook Air?

    I purchased my first Apple laptop yesterday and while setting it up, I made a typo for the name of my computer (meant to type BloodGrin but typed BloodGrib instead).  Sorry for the n00b question, but is there any way possible I can change that?
    I know how to change the name for iCloud, but the name of the computer itself if that makes any sense.

  • Exploded battery on a Macbook Air (Macboom Air)

    The battery on my Macbook Air suddenly became very hot and the whole aluminium unibody burst swollen. There is no warranty left but how does Apple handle such occasions?
    It was shortly after a flight where the Macbook Air was in the cargo section of the airplane. It could have resulted a serious threat to the flight.
    Here's a picture of the swollen Macbook Air:

    That's a clear cut mistreatment of the Air.  
    The Air never should have gone in the freezing cargo hold with also lack of pressurization!
    The battery got extremely cold in the cargo section, and low pressure causing cell interior rupture.  No the flight was not under any serious threat.
    Don't dare use it in its current state,... contact Apple for replacing the lithium battery.

  • How to get battery information for macbook air 13"

    Hi,
    I am using macbook air 13" released by the end of last year.
    For personal reason, I have to buy a new battery for my mba through the internet.
    So, how can I check the battery information (such as release day and last day of warranty) using its serial number?
    It is not easy to find such service in apple.com in case of macbook air battery.
    Thanks for your reply.
    Jonghun Park.

    That page supports for (as it mentioned below)
    iPhone, iPad, Mice and Trackpad, iSight, Portable Computers, AirPort, iPod, Displays, Xserve, Desktop Computers, Keyboards, Apple TV
    NOT FOR THE BATTERY EMBEDDED IN MACBOOK AIR!! :<
    (And the length of serial number of battery is longer than above HW products)
    Thanks for your answer, by the way.

  • Replacing a motherboard on a macbook air

    To the people that are reading this, I thank you for helping me. I have been thinking about replacing the motherboard in my macbook air (13", mid 2011) so I can have better specs. However, there is one problem: it must obviously be the same size so it will fit perfectly. Does anybody know if the size of the most recent macbook air's motherboard is the same as my model? My warranty is now expired so I have some freedom. Please let me know!

    If it's from the same model MBA, it will work.
    Check its "model identifier". A Mid-2011 MBA, 13 inch size for example, will be MacBookAir4,2.
    The most recent macbook air's model identifier is MacBookAir6,2 and its logic board cannot be substituted.
