HT1766 Sadly the last update is causing my battery to run constantly  even if i am not using it.  Ihave been told to reset my iphone and then set it up as a new device .  How do I do this and keep my contacts and calendar?

I recently did an update and my iphone 4 battery now drains within 6 hours (preveiously would be fine for 36 hours),  I was told to reset my iphone and then set it up as a new phone , so as not to have the problem recur.  How do I do this and maintain my contacts and calendar if I am not using my computer back up?

Of course the battery "runs" constantly, otherwise the phone would die.  Duh! 
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Since the last update to IOS my Apple 4 runs out of battery in 3hrs or less What is causing this?

    Since the last IOS Update, my Apple 4-S goes dead within a 3-4 hour period..  I was told by Verizon that Apple is coming out with another "Update" to correct that problem..   My Apple 5 doesn't seem to have this problem..   How soon is this problem going to be corrected?

  • Last update now causing a script to run endlessly, how do I fit the problem?

    The WIN XP machine I'm running is chugging along trying to finish loading the last FireFox update. It is slowing the browser down. I have tried to restart but the same thing happens.

    It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
    If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

  • What is it about the latest update that causes my battery life to be so short?

    Since the latest update my battery life has gone from great to horrendous. I used to be able to get through an 8-hour day at work with no issues now I'll get low battery issues after just a few hours. I presume if I do a factory reset I'll loose all my apps and the phone will insist I redo the update. What am I supposed to do?

    You should back up any music or videos, documents or files to a PC and then factory reset the phone.  You can either let the reset re-install the apps and app data, or do a clean install to avoid other issues and uncheck those boxes in Back up and Reset menu in Main Settings of the phone.  You can always batch install from the Play Store once you reset or you can go to the Play Store webpage, sign in and restore apps from there as well.  Make sure you are fully charged to 100%.

  • Problems since the last update and unable to remove program from comp...

    I haven't been able to run itunes since the last update. Anytime I try to run it, it gives me the preparing to install window and then a little while afterwards, says that the folder program files contains an invalid character. I tried moving the program out of the that folder even as far as to the desktop as the help topic suggested. I have tried removing the program from the comp, but it won't let me do that because of the same reason it won't run itunes. I am at a loss of what to do. I can't seem to be able to repair it nor can I remove it and reinstall. I really don't want a defunct program just eating space on my comp. Please help.

    Can you install any program? If so can you install the MS cleanup utility?

    If you can't install it then I'll need a email that I can send the exe to. I just did this for someone else so don't worry.

  • HT6058 Will this new update slow down my iphone 4 even more than the last update?

    Will this new update slow down my iphone 4 even more than the last update?

    Thats a hard question to answer.  The iPhone 4 has older technology than newer models which can cause the device to lag.  Depending on what data and settings you have on the device, it could run slower.  I would probably make sure to constantly close apps in multitasking and possible think about restoring the device as a new device.  Make sure to backup your data prior to the restore

  • Hi I've purchased music but itunes won't let me transfer it to my iphone. This has happened since the last update and is happening to my brothers iphone also on his laptop. any suggestions?

    HI there,
    my laptop recenty went kaput and needed a new hardrive which was installed. When I got it back I downloaded itunes again and then bought some music. I connected my iphone and it would not allow me to transfer the music over to the iphone at all. It allowed me to pull all the music on my phone over to the itunes list which I realised at that point did have my usual music list on it. I can't seem to transfer any music purchased over to my iphone for love or money. This is happening to my brother on his itunes account also and he said it's happened since the last update on his. Any suggestions - I'm quite desperate as this is driving me nuts.
    Many thanks,
    Sarah

    Plug in phone to computer.
    in iTunes click on your device and then Music Tab.
    Deselect the playlist in question, and click sync
    Try your sync again

  • I am selling my apple mac pro but do not know how to deregister and register it to the new owner; how do you do this?

    I am selling my apple mac pro but do not know how to deregister and register it to the new owner; how do you do this?

    Before you sell or give away your computer, in addition to the steps mentioned in this support article, take these steps:
    Run Apple Diagnostics or the Apple Hardware Test. The buyer will do this (or he should), and you don't want to be surprised by the results.
    Reset the PRAM and the SMC, which might contain personal information.
    If you set a firmware password, remove it by running Firmware Password Utility in Recovery mode.
    If you activated FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, turn it off.
    If you use Boot Camp, the partition must be deleted
    If you created any other data partitions on the internal drive, remove them in Disk Utility.
    Erase the data partition(s) with the option to zero out data. An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.
    You can't legally or practically transfer any software downloaded from the Mac App Store to the new owner of the machine, even if it was free. That includes OS X, so if you upgraded to OS X 10.7 or later, you must reinstall  an older OS, either from the installation media, if applicable, or by booting into Internet Recovery (option-command-R at the startup chime.) If you installed from physical media, deliver those to the new owner.
    If you're selling the machine, or donating it in working order, and it originally shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, then you have the option of installing either from the discs that came with it or from a retail Snow Leopard disc (which you must then transfer with the machine.) The buyer should understand that if he doesn't get the original discs from you, he won't get the bundled iLife applications or the Apple Hardware Test. Replacements for the original discs can be ordered from Apple.
    The new owner will have to redownload any software that came from the App Store, including OS X upgrades, under his or her Apple ID. If you ever updated the bundled iLife applications (Garage Band, iMovie, and iPhoto) through the App Store, you can't transfer those either.
    Remove the machine from your list of registered products. If it's still covered by an AppleCare Protection Plan, transfer the coverage to the new owner by following the instructions in the AppleCare Terms and Conditions (under the heading "Transfer of Plan.")

  • I am running OS X version 10.7.5 on a Macbook Air.  I read in one thread where someone had an update that was higher than 10.7.5 but when I ask for updates, none are available. Is this the last update for OS X?

    Niel, thanks for your response.  I have been very wary of downloading Mavericks on this machine.  I don't feel it has the power to run it and I'm afraid it was slow it down terribly.  It was bought in late 2008.  It's fine for my purposes at this time…just holding on until I buy a new one.  I have the same problem others have with autofill not working, so I was trying to see if an update would help that situation.  Grace

    Hi there navicin79,
    You may find the troubleshooting steps in the articles below helpful. The first thing I would try is reinstalling iTunes as outlined in the first article.
