@SomeRandomIrishGuy BECAUSE I DIDN'T RECORD MYSELF FUMBLING WITH IT FOR TWO HOURS TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT AS I WENT ALONG. I ONLY STARTED RECORDING WHEN IT WAS TIME TO PUT IT BACK TOGETHER AND I KNEW WHERE EVERYTHING WAS AND HOW IT WORKS.
I cannot figure out how the innards get put into the newer unibody aluminum apple remote. The thing's got no seams or openings. IT'S WITCHCRAFT I TELL YA!!! APPLE HAS HIRED WITCHES!!!
Is the menu button able to pop out? I have my broken iPod Touch's home button and its the exact same size and I wanted to... you know... hax my remote! :)
Also, what size screwdriver did you use on the first long screw? Mine won't come out. >:(
If I can remember correctly, the button doesn't come out.... at least, not easily... Then again, this was a while ago now and I never tried to take the button apart.
I think I may have used a 00 screwdriver. Again, it was a long time ago now...
Thank you for this video. One of the buttons on my remote didn't work and I couldn't figure out how to disassemble the remote to fix it. Your video helped me to get it open and clean it. My remote works again!
hey i have and apple remote and i chek it and it works but it dosent want to pair with mi imac i pres home and next and it dosent do noting does it have to do that i ugrade to leopard?
Slide something thin, yet sturdy under the top (side with controls) or bottom (side with the Apple logo) side of the little grey spring button. I used one side of my tweezers (the other side was outside the remote entirely). This will allow you to depress one of the catches and pull the piece out.
Then unscrew the screw beneath it and pull the white spring button with tweezers or pliers to get the grey battery compartment out. Then push the rest of the grey plastic out the top.
WHY WOULD YOU SHOW IN REVERSE
