New Battery for Ipod Nano

Ny Ipod no longer holds a charge. I took it to the Apple store who told mne I need to purchase a new one. It could not be replaced. Does this sound right?

Why could it not be replaced, and is it still under warranty?

    What on Earth are you talking about???

  • The replacement battery for Ipod nano true or false

    I was tryin to figure out if it was true that you can't replace your battery in an Ipod nano unless you have good sodering skills or unless you send it in and replace it. Because I bought a third party replacement battery for my Ipod Nano, and it gave me the instructions to the normal Ipod. Then I saw a lot of discussion posts saying that you can replace the battery for an Ipod Nano, so I need to know if you can or can't.

    It is possible...
    If you Google search for it, you can probably find instructions (with pictures) on how to do it. Basically, you need to use something (such as a tiny flathead screwdriver or a putty knife) to separate the plastic front case from the aluminum back case. Then, you can disconnect the battery that's inside of it and connect your new battery. Most third party iPod batteries recommend charging it completely before first use.
    It is, however, easier to send your iPod in for service for a battery issue, and just have them replace your iPod for you.

    To my knowledge, you don't need any exceptional soldering skills. I've replaced batteries in some older iPods, and needed nothing but a tiny flathead screwdriver that I use to do general maintenance on my saxophone.

  • New Battery for iPod 4G Will Not Charge

    My current iPod 4G 20GB battery now only holds a charge for about 45 minutes, so I went and bought a replacement battery, a "Energizer Apple iPod 4G" or ER-APPLEFGEN which is compatible with the 616-0183 battery.
    I connect my iPod via firewire to my XP machine.
    I left the iPod connected over night and in the morning it still said charging. I disconnected it and it was dead, no charge what so ever. I tried re-setting and reformatting the iPod, but still no charge. I plugged back in my old one to see if I damaged something in opening the case, and it worked fine.
    Is it possible this new battery is a dud, or are there some special steps I need to take to get a NEW battery charged?
    Thanks in advance.
    Paul

    Given the circumstances you describe, it sounds to me as if this new battery is a dud.

  • HT1351 lost ability to authorize a new computer for Ipod nano, how do i get it back?

    Had to buy a new harddrive and lost all my itune info. Went to Itune store as asked, clicked on my account as told to authorize this version of my computer.
    This computer was authorized with the old harddrive but I am getting a message that my Ipod is corrupted. I was told to authorize same but can't. I had a spot to deauthorized computers but none to authorize a new one. I think this is why I am not recognized now(??)

    It's unfortunately that your post is incomprehensible.  If there is new firmware, you will be notified when you connect the device to iTunes.

  • I tried to set up a new library for my old ipod nano so i could update songs on it however when i tried to import songs from a cd it crashed and i had to end task therefor not getting to sync the new songs with ipod nano. now i cant find old library

    However during the process of adding new songs itunes crashed and i had to end task therefor not getting the chance to sync the new songs onto ipod nano. later when i plugged in my current ipod touch all my songs have disappeared and i cant find the original itunes library i had for it! is there anyway to get it back? i have tried pressing shift when opening itunes but still cant find the original itunes that i had!!

    Since all of your music came from your computer in the first place, then it should still be there and should be included in your backup copy of your computer.
    " it told me when i pluged hers in 2 ipods could not use the same account"
    This is not true.  You have misunderstood.
    You can sync as many ipods/iphones/ipads as you like to one one library.

  • 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.

  • When the new Nike Sport Armband for iPod nano (5th generation) ?

    When the new Nike Sport Armband for iPod nano (5th generation) ?
    Is the Nike Sport Armband for iPod nano (4th generation)same to use??
    Is Nike Sport Armband or Incase Sports Armband good to use?
    Message was edited by: terry9891

    Not sure about the Nike, but do NOT buy the InCase armband. This product is HORRIBLE for at least 3 reasons. I am tall and of normal build. Tried to wear it while working out (have worn other iPods and MP3 players in armbands/cases while working out with no problems at all).
    1) The strap is barely long enough to fit over my biceps (which is normal sized). The strap is not flexible, so it's loose when your arm is extended, tight when your arm is flexed. When doing a normal arm exercise (not even a biceps exercise), with a normal amount of weight, the very first time I tried to wear this, it popped right off my arm (literally).
    2) This generation Nano is longer than previous ones. The case is even longer (longer than necessary). It barely even fit on my arm, length-wise, between my elbow and my shoulder (and my arms are somewhat longer than average). Also, it was so long that I had to try to wear it in only one position, otherwise I couldn't really even bend my arm (during the 1 minute it stayed on my arm to begin with).
    3) The case has a thin opening at one end but none at the other, and is difficult to get in and out. Thus you can either have access to the earphone plug or the "lock" button, but not both. I actually "solved" this by creating a small hole in the bottom that allowed me to stick the earphone plug through it, allowing me access (sort of) to both ends. (Unfortunately, did this before testing the product out and can't return it now, if I could have to begin with.)
    Do NOT buy this product. I wish I hadn't.

  • I have a ipod classic 5th gerneration. Is there any way I can get a new battery for it? Or does Apple only get new batteries for the 7th generations? Thanks

    I have a ipod classic 5th gerneration. Is there any way I can get a new battery for it? Or does Apple only get new batteries for the 7th generations? Thanks

    Yes you can still purchase replacement batteries your iPod from third party repair companies.  Apple does not offer replacement parts.
    Do a Google search for iPod battery replacement and you should get a plethora of results.  There are many good deals on Amazon and eBay.

  • I live in Ireland. How can I buy a new battery for my N500?

    I need to buy a new battery for my Lenovo 3000 N500.   However, in the Ireland section of the Lenovo web site NONE of the dealers have this part in stock.   It is in stock on the US and UK sections of the web site, but apparently only people in those countries can buy it on line.   I would be prepared to buy it online from the US or the UK and pay the shipping charges to Ireland.  In more than 13 years on the web, Lenovo is the first company I've encountered where I haven't been able to use my credit card to purchase an item from the US or the UK.   I do this all the time with companies like Land's End, Amazon, James Meade etc etc.
    Fine, if I'm not allowed buy from the US and the UK.  But at least,then, make sure I have some other way of buying the part - either on line or from a store.

    According to Apple:
    iPod Owners
    Your one-year warranty includes replacement coverage for a defective battery. If it is out of warranty, Apple offers a battery replacement for $49 (iPod shuffle), $59 (iPod nano and iPod classic), and $79 (iPod touch) plus $6.95 shipping, subject to local tax. Apple disposes of your battery in an environmentally friendly manner.

    First, your iPod may need to fully charge which can take a couple hours. You may benefit from downloading the 2nd gen nano manual if you haven't already. If after allowing it to charge for a bit longer and still no life (try this with the iPod ejected from the computer to see if it will power on) then there may be another problem.

  • Lanyard headphones: why did apple discontinue them for ipod nano?

    i'd love to purchase the new generation of ipod nano (i need more HD space on my 2nd gen ipod nano), but i have a basic need for the lanyard style headphones. i can't bring myself to wear the old style headphones (i have many bad memories of dropping the lanyard-less ipods).
    i have never had a problem with the lanyard design in the 4+ years that i've used them. why did apple stop production?
    and, more importantly, does apple have any plans to bring back lanyard headphones in the future?
    thank you.

    Since we are all end users like you, nobody here would have the answers to such questions.  Only apple knows.  Either way, I suggest you leave feedback to Apple through one of their feedback channels.

  • Reinstall software for iPod Nano

    I have recently bought a new PC and would like to install the latest version of softwares including iTune and iPod in my PC.
    However, I can only found iTune on Apple wesbite but not for iPod Nano. Does anybody know where are they?

    with the new iTunes 7.0.x versions, there is no longer a separate "standalone" iPod Updater application. updates and restores are carried out using iTunes 7.0.x itself.
    have you been having any trouble with the iTunes 7.0.x installs?
