IOS 5 fix not working battery Life not any better about 80% loss in 8 hours with no use

I updated my iPad with the 5.0.1 update, to fix my battery issues. This hasn't fixed anything, what to do. 80% battery life loss in 8 hours with nothing being used?

Have you checked all your settings to see if anything is running in the background e.g. location services, frequent email fetching, notifications etc - there are some tips on this page which might help, including doing a charge cycle (charging to 100%, running it down so that it powers off, and then charging back to 100%) : http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html
Also are then any apps on the taskbar that might still be active ? To close apps completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of an app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
You could also try a reset and see if that makes any difference : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • I need help with IPHOne 4s IOS 7.0.4 battery life not improving

    Alright, I Ned help with my iPhone 4S battler life, it is horrible, it will drain in about 12 hours. All I do is check my email, text a few people, and check a few apps. When I may school, it is a hundred percent, then I check it during school etc, when I go to bed it is about 20-30% battery life. Need help. Any suggestions? I tried a hard resets and restoring to a new iPhone etc, nothing worked.

    I"m not at all sure what is the problem when you are describing your battery as holding its charge for 12 hours???
    How long do you want your device to hold its battery charge???
    Please see this article for tips on conserving battery charge. But PLEASE if you are looking for a device to hold its charge for LONGER than 12 hours I would suggest an android.

  • Exchange Outlook Push Not working, Battery life Tanking, iPhone heats up!

    I have seen several posts about this, but nothing that has been able to exactly describe my issue. I have a iPhone 3G on the latest firmware, 3.1.2. I was recently able to add my work exchange email to the phone and it worked fine with SSL disabled. At the time, we had not yet set up security on our OWA. Well that lasted about a week, then they decided to enable the security and since then, my push exchange mail with Outlook has not worked. I tried enabling the SSL feature on the phone and still no dice. As a result, my battery only lasts about 3 hours and the phone's physical temperature heats up. Once I delete the exchange account, the tempreceeds and the battery life returns to normal. I ahve been working closely with our IT guy and we can't seem to figure out what is happening and why it won't sync anymore. I get the error, "cannot get mail, the connection to the server failed" but in the setup, the exchange Account is verified. Any ideas?

    Hi, I have just run into the same issue. I was using ver 3.00 on my iPhone 3g up until last night when I upgraded to 3.1.2. Since the upgrade where my phone was successfully connecting to our Exchange 2k3 server and recieving push notifications for mail and calendar etc, this has now stopped. The result now being it will only pull mail on request.
    As mentioned in the post above, I have noticed the battery life on my phone has deteriorated significantly, to the point it only lasts a few hours, with almost zero usage.
    Please help.

  • It's not my imagination. iOS 6 is depleting battery life at a much faster rate

    I own a black 32GB iPhone 4S. Being a fairly new apple customer ( my first smart phone 4s in feb 2012) I can't say enough about how great I feel apples products are. Top quality all the way and worthy of a higher price than any so called competitors devices. My only complaint is the addiction level that comes with these great devices. My phone is in mint condition having never left its case except for cleaning. However after updating to iOS6 my battery life is depleting much faster. Auto brightness is off with setting at half. Location services are off. Everything and all settings are set the same as always to minimize unessesary activity. Yesterday after unplugging my phone at 7am by 4:00pm it was at 1%. The last 20% was intentional to give it another complete charge which I do once a month for battery maintenance. Usage was just like any average day and I usually plug my phone in at night with anywhere between 20-56% left. This morning I unplugged it at 6am and by 8am it lost 3% with no usage. Not sure why but I'm OCD on all my electronic devices ( studio equipment included) so I am hyper aware of there operating condition. So this happening why?  I have noticed a significant improvement in web page load times as well. Is this increased speed drain faster?  Just a long winded observation. Hope an update can fix this.   

    Hotspot functionality is entirely dependent upon the carrier.
    Do they support Hotspot?
    Is the account properly provisioned for the feature?

    If you're not a registered developer, it means you've stolen Apple's software.  Now you come to an Apple forum and ask for help?  You're lucky you're not being prosecuted!
    You can receive no help for stolen software here.  Enjoy your iBrick.

  • I upgraded my iphone 4 OS yesterday to ios 5, today morning my phone is not working, i am not able to click any button and also its not allowing me to switch off the phone and restart. Anyone having similar issues

    i upgraded my iphone 4 OS yesterday to ios 5, today morning my phone is not working, i am not able to click any button and also its not allowing me to switch off the phone and restart. Anyone having similar issues?

    From my post on what seems like the same issue (found here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/21087892#21087892)
    Take the following steps:
    1) while connected to wifi, toggle off then back on the Show All Music and iTunes Match options shown in my original post. Important: I did this step before, but wasn't connected to wifi, and my music disappeared. Subsequently, I connected to wifi and turned off and then back on those options and everything came back though it was grayed out and my only option was to download music.
    2) To get streaming over cellular back, go into Settings>General>Cellular and scroll down to the "Use Cellular Data for:" options and make sure the iTunes option is set to 'On'
    The above steps will bring back the streaming capability which seemed to go away when you update to 6.1. It didn't ACTUALLY go away, but something about the update toggled off the iTunes option in step 2 above.
    I did a final test by turning off wifi, opening Music app and selecting a song. It played successfully without downloading! Crossing my fingers, but I think I'm good to go!
    Hope this helps!

    Try this article if you haven't already
    This is the only possibility that came to my mind when reading about your issue:
    "If an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is not recognized in iTunes on Windows, the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) may need to be restarted"

    iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • IPod model A1059, freezes, unresponsive to all click wheel entries.  Reset does not work.  Does not show up in ITunes or on windows explorer.  What is the problem and how do I fix it?

    IPOD model A1059 appears frozen and is unresponsive to all click wheel entries. Reset does not work.  Does not show up in ITunes or in Windows Explorer.  What is the problem and is there a fix?

    If you are unable to reset the iPod (assuming the hold switch is not in the On position either), then you'll have to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then connect it to a charger and leave it to charge for a couple of hours.

  • MacBook Pro 2.0Ghz runs warm, battery life not bad?

    http://blogs.ittoolbox.com/security/investigator/archives/007864.asp
    The MacBook Pro 2.0Ghz runs warmer, battery life not too bad!!!! You have to love that packaging...

    With Windows XP machines the CPU has three basic speed modes (with many other power saving features)
    Full speed , in this case 2GHZ
    low speed: 600MHZ or 800MHZ,
    and 'dynamic' mode (throttles the cpu form around 100MHZ to 2GHZ on the fly according to demand).
    So on a Windows machine you can set the cpu to run at 600MHZ constant which is good for heat issues ( and battery life)
    Of course 'dynamic' mode also is good fo heat and the battery (nice to have options)
    In practice these features work well and have been present in the mobile chips for quite a while now.
