My iBook G4 (14") is about a year old and the battery does not hold even 1 hour of charge. I picked it up last fall at Carbon on Queen east of Broadview
Is this normal and it's time to purchase a new battery. If so, any suggestions - Apple.ca and Carbon has them for $159-.
If this is not normal, any suggestion on what to fix or how to pursue warrenty?
If you've done a PRAM reset (command-option-P-R) then it's time for a new battery. You might want to confirm the warranty status of your iBook before you shell out some cash just in case the iBook still has some warranty coverage left on it.
Batteries aren't covered after 6 months no matter what the issue, regardless if you have extended AppleCare warranty. You'll have to buy a replacement.
