I have a battery problem -overheating

Is the Ipad battery supposed to get hot? Dangerous?

Warm is normal. 'too hot to handle' - quite literally, it not.
It's normal for it to heat up when you charge it or when you use it heavily - like watching a movie or playing a game
If you're concerned that it's too hot, make an appointment at your local apple store and have them check it out

Who didn't have any battery problem?

I know so many people who have had battery problems with their ipods it's just unbelievable !!! I am so angry about mine . It 's just 10 months old with a battery life of just one hour only and Apple just sent it back to me saying they didn't find any trouble with it!!! WHAT CAN I DO ?

Does the early iPod Touch have a battery problem?

I read in one of the computer magazines that Apple is replace a certain model iPhone because of a faulty battery that is not holding charge. I have an iPod Touch with the serial number C3********4K4 which is not holding charge. Are some iPhones with faulty batteries being replaced and would this hold true for an iPod from the same issue?
<Edited by Host>

No, only a one model iPhone with one batch of batteries have a problem.

IS IT A BATTERY PROBLEM??! PLEASE HELP!

I've charged it and did everything i could but i just don't know the problem! Has my battery run out for good? My dad reckons a need a new battery!

Good question
But :
1. Do you usually use the backlights, and all of stuff which seem ruin the battery ?
2. Do you charge it every time you're reaching the middle of your battery capacity (or range)… ? The first generation runs actually for 4 or 5 hours before it needs recharging whereas it was announced 8 hours… But, all of us knows that Battery Li-Ion capacity depends on how we use it…
3. Are you a hard-user ?
4. The best advice is to reset it in order it to loose its memory (I mean the bad informations it has saved), full-charge it, and then press play and let it uncharge until it shut off itself… If you have around 4 ou 5 hours (or more), you don't have any battery problem… But if you problem persists, you also need a change battery (if you are under warranty, it will be free… but if you're not… it will cost about 50 $… i don't know about the price in America and Great Britain…)
But before calling Apple, try doing the test…

A different BATTERY problem

I noticed the last week that i have a battery problem. Not similar like the issue of less than 1000mAh which can see via Nokia Diagnostics.
My Lumia 800 shows over 1500mAh at Diagnostics but shuts down at 30% percent!!!!
This happened to me the last THREE continuous times.
Is this because software affects my Lumia 800 too? Can i go to my local Nokia Care and ask for a replacement with a new Lumia 800? And how can i prove that my Lumia 800 has battery problem, if via Diagnostics my full charge capacity is over 1500mAh?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well i updated my Lumia 800 at a Nokia Care, because it was impossible to wait it via Zune.
I have good and bad news.
The good is that my phone now doesnt shut down at 30%.
The bad news are that before update i had over 1500mAh full charge capacity. After and before the charging i had 1480mAh...All good until now. But after every charging, the full charge capacity continuously reduced.
For example, at the second charging i had 1400mAh,
at the 3rd i had 1360mAh,
at the 4rth i had 1250mAh,
at the 5fth i had 1145mAh.
Today i ll do my sixth charging.
Also, the remaining time has decreased dramatically. My Lumia 800 cannot be without charging over 15 hours now. Before the update and with the problem, from 100% to 30% battery i had autonomy of over 36 hours.
I contacted this morning, the official Nokia customer care at Bulgary, i am from Greece. A very kind man speaking greek of course told me that my problem will be send to Headquarters at Finland. I asked for a replacement, but they told told me that the steps is to send my Lumia for a first look at the central service and maybe fix it. As my phone will be serviced, i will have a Nokia 5800 replacement!!!! Oh my GOD. I paid 485 euros to have a 5800? For how many days? 10? 20? A month? I do not want any fix. I accept that my phone is defective. It is not rare at mass production. It happens. I want NOW a new Lumia 800 and i do not want to go again at a Nokia Care. A want an easy life with my Lumia 800.
I also told that at other Europe countries, Nonia Care stores have replaced the problematic phones. Why they do not do the same at my country?
Will anyone pay me the time that i lose from my job, running for my Nokia Lumia 800?

Ipod Battery Problem (No not the usual question)

I have a new 30gb 5g Ipod which is the successor to my 15gb 3g Ipod so Im not new to the whole Ipod thing, but I was wondering if I have a battery problem: (Events leading to problem)
1. I sync the ipod and charge it so its full
2. I listen to it for about an hour meter goes down about half way, which is fine because its only the 3rd charge. BUT.......
3. I "turn it off" by pressing play/pause and switch the hold switch on.
4. 2-3 days later I turn ther hold switch off and my ipod doesnt turn on like the battery id fully depleted, and I have to charge it for 3 or more hours to get it to turn on.
Do I have a problem. If there is a common fix could you please help me. Thanks.

I think this is a 5th generation iPod that would clearly be under warranty.
It really does sound like A faulty battery - it's quite common for the battery meter to dip noticably after an hour of use on a fully charged battery because the meter is not really accurate and reflects the battery charge based on what drain is occuring at the time. What is needed is to fully charge the iPod over 4 hours or so, then set it to play continuously and monitor how long it takes until it switches off. That should give a reasonably clear idea of how well the battery is performing.
It's important to note however that the symptom described is not uncommon with a faulty lithium ion battery.

Battery problems on latest update

Dear All,
I just did the latest update tonight on my iPod Touch 5th generation and suddenly I'm having battery problems that I didn't have before. When first powered on, the battery shows 100% charged, but soon the beep tone indicates a low battery warning and the green battery symbol changes to white (not black, but white). When I plug it into the computer via the usb lightning cable, it says the usb device is drawing too much power and has been disabled. When I attempt to charge it, the battery goes between green and white, then sometimes goes to black. I tried it on two computers and the second one recognized the iPod and did a sync and update, but when everything was finished, it too said that the usb device was drawing too much power and was being disabled. I didn't have a battery problem on the iPod before tonight's update, so I'm quite certain it isn't the battery -- something happened with the update. Anyone having similar problems?? Are you listening, Apple??? Thanks.

I think ios 5.0.1 has fixed my battery problem on ipad 1

Was glad to see this morning when I woke up ios 5.0.1 was out.
I downloaded it straight away through the ipad it self..
Once done I then charged up my ipad to full 100% ..
Now I started using it from around 9am this morning and its 4.10 pm now.. and I'm still at 89% battery...I think i can safely say the problem has been fixed
I don't know if this is normal or not..but to drop down from 100% to 99% it took around 33 mins... but I did notice from 99% to 93% it was dropping like 1% every 7-8 mins.. anyways i left it around midday at 90% 4 hours has passed now and its down to 89%... so im really pleased with the fix. I hope it stays this way lol.
Has IOS 5.0.1 fixed everyone's ipads battery problems??
Been reading up for the iphone 4s also and it seems 5.0.1 hasn't done anything for the battery charge... was really hoping to purchase a 4s soon ..but if they still have the battery problem I guess I'll have to wait a little longer.

In terms of the battery, if you are not already doing so you should go through at least one charge cycle per month i.e. charging to 100%, running it down so that powers off, and then charging back up to 100%, which should help keep the battery indicator accurate - it's recommended towards the bottom of this page http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html
I hadn't noticed any problems with the battery on my first gen iPad, but I've updated anyway.

Anybody that has ever had, or still have battery problems....

Please join me in finding a solution.
Lets all converse in this thread about battery problems. I Have noticed many many many battery and power problems going unresolved in this discussion forum and I think if we all get organized into one thread and work together we may find a solution.
If you haven't read of my battery and power problem before here is the run down.
-battery won't charge(0% and then eventually "No Batteries Availiable")
-Battery is NEW. It is valid(works in other iBooks).
-Its not the DC-in board. No, no... I replaced that and it did nothing, it probably won't help you either.
-I've done all the pointless stuff.(Resetting PMU, PRAM, NVRAM, Deep Reset PMU)
-Battery is Charged(Used my friends iBook). Yet my iBook will not power on from the battery.
Now. I know many iBook owners are having the same problem. I have worked countless hours on this problem and I am never going to give up.
Now throughout searching countless forums of Battery Problems I have gathered some observations.(All these observations are only taken from cases similar to mine)
-They have the same problems I have stated.
-All the Resets in the world don't help them
-Some of them mention a noise coming from the iBook.
-Some of them mention buying third party power Adapters.
-The thread usually ends with them asking more questions and replies never come so they give up.
-They all usually go unresolved or Solved in the case that they just buy a new laptop.
So taking that I am pretty sure that this problem needs to be solved. I have been giving it a good try but without information I just cannot get too far.
Any of you people with the same problem as me... We should all compare certain statistics and symptoms to see if we can zero in on what the problem is.
These are my suspicions.
I purchased My Power-Adapter from Ebay. It looked legit and everything and it provides the iBook with power pretty well. Yet I stumbled across something. It says on the Power Adapter that it is a 65(watt) Power Adapter. But when I check in the System Profiler, This is what it reads:
AC Charger Information:
AC Charger (Watts): 45
Connected: Yes
Now why would the Power Adapter say 65(watts) but when I check the stats on my iBook it receives 45(watts). I have checked all the stats of these iBooks and I know that they need 65(watts) to function properly. Some people say 45w will power an iBook fine but I think this is why the battery won't charge. The power Adapter I bough online clearly stated that it will work correctly on my model and it Even says 65w on the adapter. Remember the faulty batteries? Could people be possibly making faulty power adapters and selling them now too? My friend has moved so I cannot test his "Apple" adapter to see if it works.
I also think this may be the cause of these processor sounds(That are stupidly diagnosed as HD failures) that some people like me get. I found out if I turn the processor down to "reduced" the sound goes away. Maybe the "whizzing" sound could be a capacitor being overworked so it can provide the processor with power or the processor itself but I really think these issues are related.
In saying that... This is what I want. Anybody out there that has the same(or similar) problems as I do, please do this:
-State the issues you are having with your iBook.
-Go to System Profiler and Under Hardware click Power, copy all of those statistics in the right pane and paste them in your reply.
-Say what kind of iBook(or Powerbook) you have.
-Say what kind of battery and what kind of Power adapter you have.
-Ask for other statistics that you think might help you.
-If you have any ideas of what the problem is please tell me.
-And if you already know a solution please tell us all.
We can all tackle this problem if we work together.

I can't speak to all of your problems, but there are a few things that may help.

You are incorrect about this. The adapter that shipped with iBooks, initially, was a 45-watt model. 45 watts is all it takes to properly run the iBook and charge its battery. The iBook registers the adapter as 45 watts because the iBook only takes the amount of power that it needs. A Powerbook needs the full 65 watts in order to run the computer and charge the battery simultaneously.
Did you replace your DC-in board yourself? Has it ever worked since the DC-in board was replaced? Are you sure you got it plugged in properly?
Yours is acting exactly the way my husband's did when his DC-in board needed to be replaced. That is, it would work from a fully charged battery, but would not charge the battery. A DC-in board replacement was the fix for his, and sounds like that would be the fix for yours, too. If you did it yourself before, maybe you need to either try it again (you could have received another bad one), or send it off to have someone else do it.
Good luck.

Does iPod (4th gen) have a battery life problem?

I have had my 4th gen iPod for less than 2 years (was a replacement after the screen was cracked. Was purchased at an actual Apple Retail store). I am now finding that it won't hold a charge. I have tried 4 different cords (including the original cords from the original and the replacement iPod) plus 2 other iPod compatible cords and plug it in every night, only to find out that 6 out of 7 days it still reads as having a low battery (at 20% battery life). I am pretty sure it is not the cords. In addition, lately I have been getting messages about the temperature (being either too hot or too cold). I do not leave my iPod in the sun or in my car EVER, yet I've gotten messages about the battery being too hot (even when it was in an air conditioned house for several hours) and now I am getting messages about it being too cold (it is freezing outside, but the iPod has been inside and does not even feel cold to the touch).
I would update it to the new version, but it requires 50% power to do so, and I can't get enough power to it (even when it is plugged in for hours, it still doesn't show enough battery life).
I have an appointment at the genius bar next week, but thought I would ask if anyone else is having this/these problem(s) and what they did to resolve the issue Thanks.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem. I suspect a hardware problem because of the high temp warning.
