I love my iPad. I love that it gives me even more freedom than my laptop...Or did. Now I'm forced to use it around outlets. My iPad needs a new battery so today I'm going to show you how to replace the battery in an iPad so we can get back out in nature together or at least away from the outlets.

Thank You!! This just saved me from buying a new iPad. My iPad was trying to restart and kept crashing because the battery couldn't hold charge. I took it to the Apple shop, they told me it is a hardware problem, that I should buy a new one for $500+. I bought a new battery and followed your steps It works perfect now! only $30 to fix. A tip, when taking the battery out, use a plastic spatula or plastic flipper to get under the battery. Amazing! thank you so much for this video, you guys rock

That IS NOT a glued screen!! She's holding it down while pretending to separate glue that isn't there. I can promise you it is NOT this easy to put a pick in there and slide it down. Watch the video carefully. At all times she's inserting the blue pick, she's pushing down on the screen to hold it there.

@Grayghost2099 5 лет назад

I'm convinced I won't be changing my battery!

@lasidora 6 лет назад

Thanks, great - very easy to follow video, allowed me to change out my knackered Ipad3 battery for a working new one, took 20 min from start to finish, I used a very thin wallpaper scaper for getting the final battery out, just made that last push so much less hassle.

@Zxer34 10 лет назад

Those blue picks would be perfect for use as a bass pick

@wandamcgann7728 5 лет назад

using alcohol also helps in loosing the adhesive

@simonsmedley5434 4 года назад

Just don’t drink too much or you’ll start seeing double!!

@carlrobinson5746 5 лет назад

Excellent video, could do with some more close ups though. Time and patience is key to this. I did find that you don't have to remove all the ribbons from the board before removing it, just undo the 4 screws and you can lift it enough to remove the battery. I also broke the seal on the glass with a scalpel blade and removed the battery with a butter knife. Pretty risky but do able.

@kbsunil7464 5 лет назад

its a wonderful opening video. it would be great if a video of adding new battery and placing the adhesive

@jimowen800 11 лет назад

Hi Gwen. I do miss MJ but you're doing a fantastic job so thank you. Just one thing though, would you mind telling the director that the repetitive tune is difficult to listen to for ten minutes. Thanks

@glennhakongranvaggjelstad1352 4 года назад

I'm so happy to see you working on electrostatically sensitive parts without even mentioning the use of an ESD kit. How many devices have you potentially destroyed with your ifixit videos?

@markhawthorne6683 4 года назад

That is great, super video , easy to follow.. Ok.... now I have lots of parts on my dining table, what next ..................?

@drdbrowndc 6 лет назад

Nice video. I found, however that I was able to remove the battery without removing the MB. I loosened the MB and was able to lift it enough on the battery side to slip the battery connector off the alignment peg. It is safer to remove the MB, of course but this worked for me. Also the battery glue is very strong. I started by lifting the bottom 1/3 portion of the battery after heating the back alot. Good luck! BTW, my iPad now will charge to 100% much more quickly now.

@Cpt_Adama 6 лет назад

Looks so easy in the video, but the spudger is soft plastic and dulls quickly making it difficult to pry up the glass. Mine cracked before ever getting it up high enough to get a pick under it 😬. Highly recommend you have a new digitizer panel ready cause I can’t see getting this off without breaking the glass.

@lenisepage7553 4 года назад

Apple want users to keep buying their ipads, etc, thats why they make repairing them difficult. However, with patience and practice it does get easier. I have repaired two screens so far and I am going to replace the battery in my ipad .

HI IS IT SAFE TO PUT IN MICROWAVE OVEN?

@lindasanner5899 7 лет назад

worked great! saved a lot of money. worst part was getting the battery unstuck from the case!

@OWK000 4 года назад

Props lady! --not breaking any glass!! I like the long microwave heat pad thing. Now can I make one of those? Luckily I play guitar--this takes lots of picks.

@WormholeJim 10 лет назад

It looks to me that the iPad, by design, was never meant to be opened again. So if Apple claims they can't verify state of battery-life (less then 50% or not) because damage to the glass prevents them from applying their measuring-method, then that is just so much hot air and bad excuses not to uphold their applecare protection plan battery-change guarantee, yeah? Answering this would really help me as I'm filing a lawsuit against them to have them replace my iPad due to it's battery having run it's lifespan.

@gabrielcornea9119 6 лет назад

Apple in their dellusion, still believes they own the ipad you bought. Luckily we don't accept their BS

@thearoom 9 лет назад

To bad you can't just remove the back and avoid all that stuff. It's like doing heart surgery from you back. Shame on you apple.

@hairybeefman 7 лет назад

thearoom apple makes by purpose to put the battery waaaaaaay inside their products. It makes things difficult to replace. Why the batteries on ipad and iphone are not easly removable like on Samsung products??

@stevetash5032 7 лет назад

Beg to differ but iPhone batteries couldn't be any easier to replace.

@davidrobert5227 4 года назад

Hello. Thank you for this very helpful explanation. I am about to make the change of the batteries of my Ip 3, but the lid is inflated, I think a battery almost exploded. Do you think my IP will turn on again despite this battery that has expanded inside? Thank you for your attention. Yours truly 👍

@scottcupp8129 5 лет назад

Very nicely done btw.

@yutub8712 10 лет назад

i'm gonna get me some parts and have a go at this :)

@poweruser213 4 года назад

Idk if its because of battery life or what but my ipad 3 is veeery slow and barely openin YT video anymore... I have read about when battery is exhausting the speed is decreasing. Is it true?

@jeylanquitay366 7 лет назад

Thanks! I successfully replaced the defective battery on my iPad!

@cesardavidmata3004 5 лет назад

excelente y profesional video, mi pila estaba funcionando bien pero al cambiar el vidrio roto, por error en el manejo desconecte el "conector" de la pila pero ahora al ver tu video o tutorial me di cuenta de mi error, ya lo conecte y funciona perfectamente …. gracias, te amo y quiero casarme contigo.... Saludos...…… excellent and professional video, my battery was working fine but when changing the broken glass, by mistake in the handling disconnect the "connector" from the battery but now when watching your video or tutorial I realized my error, I already connect it and it works perfectly ... thank you, I love you and I want to marry you ... Greetings from Mexico..

@xzxe 7 лет назад

My ipad 3 is charging very slowly. Like 3% only per hour. Is the battery the problem? I bought new cable and adapter but it's still bad. It became faster for a short time, like 6%, but now it's back to 3% per hour.

@noahbromberg3675 5 лет назад

shinyeon23 the charge controller built in the lithium ion battery recognizes how low the health is, and is trying to prevent any further wear by reducing charge speeds. A new battery would help.

@hira6481 10 лет назад

And all of that just because Apple doesn't want to have a removable back

@Samford_ 4 года назад

@twain772 4 года назад

So my girlfriends ipad battery swelled and of course, stopped working. I bought a new battery and installed it before watching this video, the only thing i cant seem to figure out is the little ribbon wire that comes from the cover. it pulled out of the location it goes to and i dont know if i am getting it all the way in or not. Regardless of the wire, the ipad will not come on at all, it wont show life when i try to charge it either. Could the old battery swelling have dont something to the rest of the ipad?

@thomasriffe5982 7 лет назад

can we get a video with a 100% shot of the iPad the whole time. I don't need to see this lady I need to see WTF she is doing lol.

@cnelsonlv999 7 лет назад

No shit! I can't understand why they have the camera on the girl while she is describing what you need to do, instead of just showing you while she talks! This video is idiotic!

@cosmicaug 9 лет назад

Replaced digitizer & battery (not from iFixit) and everything seems good except battery is at 5% after many hours of charging. Is this some kind of a calibration issue or did I just go through all of this simply to install a defective battery? How do I differentiate between the two cases? Unhappy if the latter is the case. If the former is the case, how do I force recalibration.

@cosmicaug 9 лет назад

August Pamplona Quite frustrating. After doing everything right another thing went wrong. The digitizer developed a small crack right through the the middle of the front facing camera area. After I had put it back together, I felt of it and it did not feel like the digitizer had completely adhered along two small sections so I tried to reapply heat and force. It either happened when I heated the upper part of the digitizer or when I pressed down on it with my fingers (I felt nothing unusual with my fingers so heat stress is possible). I don't feel that it should have cracked with no real displacement being involved and no sharp forces (much less due to uneven heating).

@justiceman9492 6 лет назад

it would have been better had we seen the full video.....the old battery coming out and the new one going in...….and the final connections/install of what I gather was the wifi section??!!..

@esesolox3_EM3TEK 10 лет назад

why did you replaced the battery again? Does this help fix the ipad not charging error? I got an Ipad 3 that even when connected only shows the battery with very low charge icon will this procedure help? Thanks.

@esesolox3_EM3TEK 9 лет назад

***** actually i just needed to stack charge the device. Had a high speed usb charger and after I left it connected for a while it came back to life.

@EstaDePiPi 7 лет назад

esesolox3 high speed cable ?? I recommend just using the iPad charged Apple gives you, a lower Walt charger for the iPhone would take forger

FYI: not that easy to remove from the original bcos the double-sided tape is really strong, u will broke it easily, cos i have done it before. I change my back housing case.

@normanparker2103 7 лет назад

You're talking at the wrong end just buy a new one so wasted time trying to fix and I never worked properly afterwards

@Katarinarabbit 6 лет назад

Norman Parker probably cause you didn't use anti static tools.

@serigneo 10 лет назад

¿Anybody who has done it could tell if it's safe to do this? I've done something similar to this just to change an old iPod battery and an iPhone one, too. I don't know if it's not too risky to do on an iPad.

@knightdavidmusic6804 9 лет назад

Does this make it so the iPad doesn't have a battery, it just is alive forever? Or am I stupid. Sorry if I said that self insult.

@chrisliddiard725 8 лет назад

The key points should be to avoid damage to the ribbons connecting the digitizer and the led, yet this demo barely hints at their location.

@deshaynehunter9810 5 лет назад

Yes they did watch it properly

@imsofly114 11 лет назад

I play piano as well so I have these huge banana hands. I really love the iPad though. It is a great tablet. I have this model. I don't consider myself someone that must have the latest and greatest in a tablet. This is a great tablet though. I have the 64GB version.

@mscman4589 5 лет назад

They want you to throw the old iPad away and buy a new one! There's no way I will try this at home. :-(

Great video! ...and, Apple has lost me on account of their arrogance in the design of the ipad.. They DON'T want us to change the battery, simple as that. They can stick their ipads!

why speak more than acting loose many time i don't like to know the reason than seen it on real seen

@TheNashvilleJason 7 лет назад

this makes zero sense...Apple will replace your iPad that has a bad battery for $99. Why would you buy a tool kit and a battery and do it yourself? You end up spending about $99 and YOU do the work. Ridiculous.

@supboy666 7 лет назад

tool kit is $5 or less and battery is $20. this ipads are years out of warranty about 6 idk what you talking bout

@mikeyriley8959 6 лет назад

Jason Coleman It's fun to fix things. Do you work on your car?

@triniticoclough6387 6 лет назад

The battery and kit is far less than 99 bucks and when your done, your ipad is with you no silly shipping!

@rudolfhuijs4526 5 лет назад

Well... there are people with abilities and some without. There are some who like to do stuff with their hands and some that pay others to do that stuff. Jason Coleman, people come to YT because they are DIY's or to pick information.
