Does closing out of your apps on iphone kill the battery?

I heard that closing out of you apps on your iphone is like when you "force quit" on your mac and it kills your battery instead of saving it.

Not true.  If anything, running fewer apps will help conserve the battery.

    Try a reset, press and hold both the home and power buttons for 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own.

    Its a serious problem and many people are facing the same issue on both locked and factory unlocked phones.
    I wonder when Apple will address to this issue. After all it is losing all its reputation!
    See this thread, many users are encountering the same issue:

    I believe its a software issue and could be solved asap Apple fixes it!

  • Itunes cannot sync apps to iphone because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined

    I am encountering the same problem.  This is a good start but need some guidance:
    1.  How do you get to the iTunes files you mention?
    2.  What specific files do you need?
    3.  Will I lose any data?
    Thanks for any help. 
    1) The files are in the iTunes folder. The iTunes folder is in your Music folder which is in your home folder (user).
    So go to <user home>/Music/iTunes.
    2) Any files that end with .xml, .itl, or itdb. Please note that I had upgraded iTunes many times over the years and had several obsolete versions of those files in my iTunes folder. By moving them out and forcing iTunes to create new ones (see steps 3 & 4 above), I was able to determine which ones iTunes actually needed. Those were the files that I copied back into the iTunes folder, overlaying the new empty files.
    3) Always make backups before you try tricks like this. I would recommend backing up your entire iTunes folder. I did not experience any data loss. Those files seem to contain your iTunes library information but not the actual music, movies, etc. When I started iTunes in step 3 (see above), iTunes showed an empty library. After performing step 4 (see above), I started iTunes again and it showed all my music, movies, etc. So I assume that the actual media files are stored elsewhere. Again, always make backups before trying something like this. I use Time Machine.
    Good luck. Let us know what happens.

    When I try to sync my apps with iTunes this message pops up: "cannot sync apps with iPhone because the apps on iPhone cannot be determined." Any ideas? It has always worked in the past...

    On you iPhone, force close all the Apps in the multitask window.
    Follow these steps to force an app to close:
    From the Home screen, click the Home button twice. 
    Tap and hold on the app. 
    When it starts to jiggle, tap the to close it one by one until all cleared
    Now do a Soft reset of your iPhone:
    Hold both Home and Sleep button for around 10secs until you see the Apple logo then release. After it returns to Home screen, connect to sync and see if this resolves the issue.

  • Does charging your computer too long really kill the battery?

    Does charging your computer too long really kill the battery?  I have some friends who claim this happened to thair PCs, and my friend's iBook G4 has about ~3 minutes of battery life because of this.  Has Apple fixed this in later models or should I still only charge it until just as long as it takes for it to get filled up?

    Mac power management is now, and always has been, very smart. The Mac does not over-charge its battery.
    Batteries have a limited lifetime, and they eventually wear out whether they are charged daily or never charged at all. Your friend's G4 battery, if original, has lasted a very long time. It is not dying due to over-charging, it is dying due to old age.
    For longest battery life, follow the recommendations in the article shldr2thewheel cited above.

    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    when trying to sync my iPhone i get a message saying : iTunes can't sync apps to iPhone because the apps installed on the phone could not be determine. what is going on?

    I received the same error message after I had recently updated iTunes to 10.5.1 and I had wirelessly updated 13 apps.  I had to go into iTunes and select Apps, on the bottom right it said I needed to update 13 apps.  I updated the apps via iTunes and then synced again without an issue.

  • If an iPod touch 5th Gen is completely powered off, can apps still run down the battery?

    Hello,
    I own an iPod touch 5th generaion that is less than 2 months old, it worked great until about a week ago then the battery started depleting rapidly, usually  fully within a 12 hour period even if I did not use the unit.
    I started trying to figure out if there is anyting I cold do and learned a lot about apps left open draining the battery, etc. but making sure they were all closed did not help.
    I then restored the unit to factory default, but this does not help.
    The last thing I tried was to turn the unit completed off at night using the power switch by holding it until the unit turns off.
    My question is, once I do this can any app use any power at all?
    The reason I ask is because I had spoken with 3 Apple technicians and all 3 of them do not understand or can answer the question. They keep asking me if I know how to look in the taskbar to turn off the apps which once the power is off is not an available option.
    I will greatly appreciate your response.
    Mike.

    Thanks so much for your answer.
    Yes, I am sliding to power off.

  • TS4006 I JUST HAVE THE SERIAL NUMBER OF MY IPHONE. THE BATTERY IS DEAD. IS THERE ANYWAY I CAN FINE MY IPHONE??

    I JUST HAVE THE SERIAL NUMBER OF MY IPHONE. THE BATTERY IS DEAD. IS THERE ANYWAY I CAN FINE MY IPHONE??

    Unfortunately no.  Due to privacy issues Apple does not trace devices (if it could) based on serial numbers. That's why Apple provided the Find My iPhone service to help find lost devices. But in your case, a dead battery defeats the service. All you can do is contact your carrier to ask that it block your service and inform the police. Do you have insurance for the iPhone?
