Q: Do Apple TV remotes require battery changes?

Apple TV is telling me that my remote battery (batteries?) only have 20 percent

battery life left. Is there a battery in the remote? If so how is it changed?

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2), 2 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo, 6 GB ram.

    Depends on the model. If you have Apple TV 4, which came with the Siri touch remote, then it also came with a USB cable to charge it.

     

    All other models use "button" batteries and they do need to be replaced from time to time.
