Replacement battery won't fit into my 3g touch wheel ipod

I just changed the battery on my 3g ipod, but the 850 aMh battery that is labelled "Replacement battery for 3G ipod" is bigger than the original 700 aMh battery. I can force it in, but I don't want to break anything. Has anyone else had experienced this?

I may have exaggerated that the difference in size between the 2 batteries is 1 cm. In order to make the new battery fit, I had to squeeze it past the lip of the surrounding panel rather than easily tuck it in as was the case with the original battery.
It may be the wrong battery, but how come multiple sites, including this apple authorized site I bought my battery from, are advertising the same exact battery as compatible with the 3g ipod? The battery says 3g right on it. If you have replaced an ipod battery, you must have come across different capacity batteries for the 3g. I appreciate the response, but Chris, are you saying its the wrong battery because you've replaced a 3g battery yourself and came across a multitude of sellers making this fraudulent claim, or are you assuming that the difference in size automatically means that it isn't the right battery.

  • WD My Book 1 TB External Hard drive firewire cable won't fit into Mac Pro

    Hi the firewire cable that came with my Western Digital My book External Hard Drive won't fit into my Quad Core Mac Pro. Is it the wrong cable? What's the correct cable that would connect my Western Digital External Hard Drive into my Quad Core Mac Pro? Any help is greatly appreciated

    If you have a port that looks like this one, it's FW400. If it looks like this one it's FW800. If you have one of each it supports both. If you don't have either then it's USB only.

  • T420 - fan repaired, but now the SD card won't fit into slot

    I'm going to post a couple of the current issues my daughter, freshman ID student is having with her brand new t420 laptop.  Here's this one...
    My daughter had issues with a very noisy fan.  She had it fixed, and I'm not sure what they did.  However, now her SD card won't fit into the SD slot (which it used to do).  Any ideas on what might be wrong?
    Thanks!!

    Solved!

    @Linda,
    Did it get stuck when putting the SD card in? If the SD card is inserted correctly but can't fit in properly then I would suggest to send it support for them to check.

  • All of a sudden my cord won't fit into my iPhone 5

    My iPhone 5 cord won't fit into the phone.  I am trying to charge it and it feels like the phone won't let the cord go in all the way.  It kind of pushes it out.  Any thoughts, suggestions?  Yes, I am using genuine Apple products - no cheap imitations.  I have also tried using my son's cord to see if it was the cord - but it appears to be the phone. 

    Unfortunately my phone is only 2 days old, and since I have only used it in my home, it cannot be already be dirty or damaged. Plus the nearest apple store is about 50 miles away. It was plugged in this morning, so WTH. I am very upset about this, espescially since the phone is so new. Could someone send me a link to a video, showing me the proper way the cord goes in. Perhaps I am doing it wrong, but I tried it wt the B & lightening bolt, both up and down. I also do not have apple care, so a phone call would cost me. Does anyone, have any ideas.

  • Replacement battery won't turn on ibook

    Have a used 14" ibook g4 that was only operable when power supply connected. replaced battery today and now won't turn on at all. bought new replacement from reliable third party vendor. has 4 indicator l.e.d.'s but not operating machine at all. Here's the interesting part. Swiped battery from my brothers 12" ibook g4 and held in place on contacts (obviously wouldn't stay in on its own due to smaller size) and machine turned on and booted up properly. Thoughts?

    You may have received a bad battery. Contact the vendor (might I ask who they are?) and see if you can get another replacement.

  • Battery won't fit

    I'm having the oddest problem with my computer right now.
    Tuesday they replaced my battery because the glue on the white battery face didn't hold and it was popping up. Today I noticed that the battery wasn't flush against the bottom. After taking the battery out I've discovered that the glue is not holding on this one either.
    I thought no big deal I'll just bring it back in, I haven't done anything to cause this but now I can't get the battery to go back into the computer.
    The side with the table pad refuses to go in.
    Anyone have any ideas I can try before I take it in tomorrow?
    TIA Rose

    There should be no glue holding a battery into any model laptop. The newer unibody ones are held in by a combination of screws and overhangs. Older models had latches that would lock the battery in place. There was a little coin-like rotating device with a picture of a padlock in both the locked and unlocked state that causes a couple of small bars to be extended that then slot into the battery and hold it in place.

  • Replaced battery; won't charge beyond 27%. Some settings lost on restart

    I recently took advantage of Apple's replacement program for overheating PB batteries, although I hadn't experienced any actual problems. After I installed the replacement my battery won't charge past 27%, plus the date and time reset to 1969 and my AirPort network settings are lost whenever I restart or shut down.
    The power indicator in the menu bar constantly shows ""Calculating."
    I've already tried resetting the PMU and allowing the battery to discharge fully.
    Any ideas?

    And now for the good news…
    The Genius Bar at the KC AppleStore was the source of the solution. They diagnosed a bad battery (the one I'd received in the PB battery replacement program) and changed it out. All's well now, including the "disappearing" settings.

  • Thinkpad 256GB Solid State Drive 43N3417 won't fit into Drive Bay Adapter 43N3412

    According to Document ID  PD010634, http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/product-and-parts/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-73170 and Document ID  PD013418, http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/product-and-parts/detail.page?&LegacyDocID=MIGR-73173 it should fit with the 1.8" to 2.5" converter.
    When I try to fit the drive into the Drive Bay Adapter, it won't fit.  It is like the plastic housing is just a little too big.  The adapted drive end appears to be correct, but the housing is just a little too big.  I don't want to force it and break something.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks so much.

  • My headphones suddenly won't fit into the headphone jack on the 1st generation ipod touch

    Has anyone had the problem where the headphones would only go about 3/4-way into the jack on the ipod touch?  I tried cleaning out the jack but there's no lint or dust that I could get out with a qtip or blowing air.  Any suggestions?

    Could there be a tip from another set of headphones stuck in the headphone jack?
    Have you tried another pair of headphones?
    Does the plug look OK?

  • My headphones won't fit into the jack in my Mac Mini. Do I need a special type of adapter?

    Hi, I would like to plug my headphones into my Mac Mini, but they don't fit. I have tried many different types and brands of headphones, but nothing works. Do I need a special type of headphone or a special adapter or something? Or was it an error in building the product? I'd really like the help soon, thanks!

    No. The iPod uses headphoes with the standard 3.5 mm plug.
    Is the problem that the plug cant be fully inserted?

  • Replacement battery won't charge

    i just bought a used battery on amazon.com when i swapped it in the computer will not run unless the ac charger is plugged in. the battery reads at 79% capacity (battery is like 4 years old already) and reads completely discharged. its been plugged in for 2 days and only reads 11mAh at best. i have tried reseting the PMU and the PRAM but it doesnt seem to be taking. at present the top corner of the computer says the battery will reach a full charge in 585:10. did i buy a junk battery or am i overlooking a setting that i need to change? i swapped in my old battery and it runs fine, but it only has 16% original capactiy. any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    battery got fried in the mail. sending it back and buying a new one that is being shipped from closer so there is less time in the mail

  • Is there a way to modify Incase Mini Car Charger so it will fit into iPhone 5s in a case?

    I should have read the reviews in the Apple Store before buying the Incase Mini Car Charger before I bought it: the material around the lightning connector is much thicker than that in the Apple cable (which broke after not much use) and won't fit into the 5s with the case I have on the phone. Is there a way to "shave" the rubbery material to make this work?

    dumdidadida: Thanks for your reply, but it doesn't address the problem. HSTS is designed to FORCE the use of https, this is a good thing in most cases. However, HSTS is problematic in that it incorrectly assumes that all users trust the default list of CAs and makes the adding of exceptions impossible even by advanced users.
    torprojec.org is just an example, this effects every HSTS site. You can reproduce this problem yourself in version 17 or later if you temporary disable "DigiCert High Assurance EV Root CA" in your certificate store and then visit torproject.org. You will notice the ability to add exceptions has been removed and that the cert_override.txt file found in the user's profile is also ignored.

  • There's 90MB free on my Nano and iTunes says 15 pictures won't fit.

    When is Apple going to fix this bug? I have 90MB free on my Nano and iTunes says it can't fit 15 pictures on it. If I remove all the songs and then add the pictures, they take up a WHOPPING 18k of space on the Nano. Why does iTunes think that 18 KILOBYTES won't fit into 90 MEGABYTES of space?
    Please Apple FIX THIS!

    "What does the nano report in the settings/about menu?"
    90MB free. I understand the 2GB doesn't equal 2GB thing.
    iTunes reports 90MB free on the Nano. I can fill that space with MUSIC, and have done so all the way down to a mere 250-300k left empty. But iTunes can't seem to grasp that 20k of pictures will fit into 90MB of space.
    It's a bug.

  • My iPod classic won't go into disk mode

    I have an iPod Classic (120GB) here. When I turn it on, it gives me a screen with the Apple logo first and after a few seconds a screen with a red circle, a cross in the circle and the text: www.apple.com/support/ipod . I followed all the steps on that page, however my iPod won't go into disk mode. The iPod is not seen by my iMac and iTunes. What to do?
