Why does my fully charged iPad 2 battery keep dying at 50% charge? I have updated to iOS 7 and this started happening. What could be the cause of it?

My iPad's battery keeps dying. When I plug it in and put it back on, the screen shows a drained battery. After a few moments it boots up. However, when I check the battery charge, it's at 52% or so. Can someone tell me what's causing this? And what can I do to fix it?

For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).

  • I keep getting prompted to enter my Apple ID and password numerous times daily on both my iPad and iPhone.  This started happening after I installed the latest update. Any suggestions?

    Ever since installing the latest update to iOS 7.1.2 I am prompted numerous times daily to enter my Apple ID and password. I am having the same issue on my iPad 2 and my iPhone4. Any suggestions?

    First, if you still have access to the hacked account, rename it if you can and change the password for it.
    How to change the name you use for your Apple ID
    If needed, change the email linked to it as well.  Get control of that account back.
    As all iTunes purchases are linked to the account that purchased them (music, apps, etc) it is best to rename an account rather than creat a new account.  Apple ID's can't be deleted or merged either.
    From Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
    If you need further Apple ID help, you will want to contact Apple, Apple ID Support
    or maybe iTunes Support

  • Why does my (fully charged) macbook air crash every time I disconnect the charger?

    I have an almost brand new (within 6 months) macbook air. I keep it up to date. About a week ago this issue started: everytime I unplug my charger (which is green as the laptop is at 100% power) it crashes. I just did the SMC trick, but it has had no effect. Thoughts?

    1. Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data
    2. Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo

  • Why does a new tab not open when I click on it? I have just suffered from searchqu and successfully removed it (fingers crossed) but now I have this issue. Please help?

    Since I got infected with searchqu and (hopefully) removed this, when I try and click on the + to open a new tab, nothing happens. I have also tried clicking on file, scrolling to "New Tab" but again nothing happens. However, if I go to file then "New Window" then it will open a new window - but what a nightmare!!! Please can someone help?

  • Why does my 1st gen iPad always turns itself off and goes back to the screen. Whether I'm reading news, iBooks, etc, suddenly it goes off.

    Why does my 1st gen iPad always turns itself off and goes back to the screen. Whether I'm reading news, iBooks, etc, suddenly it goes off.

    If that doesn't help, the battery may be dying and need replacement. See here (tap on Battery Replacement): http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad
    Alternately, might consider start saving for a new iPad. The newest iPad 6 should come out in the next few months. When it does, sellers will want to get rid of old inventory with good deals.

  • I updated to ios 7 and now the battery does not stop charging any ideas, or have to wait for update? thanks

    i updated to ios 7 and now the battery does not stop charging any ideas, or have to wait for update? thanks

    To show the battery percentage used go to settings
    from there click general scroll to usage and select
    scroll to bottom of page for battery usage select on.
    This will show the icon battery and the percent numbers on the top right.
    When phone is connected to an outlet sometimes it does not always show complete charge. I do not understand why but it is what it is.
    FYI I sent reply to you not to deggie. You can have your own satisfaction to reply direct.

  • TS3274 why does ibooks crash on ipad air using 8.02?

    why does ibooks crash on ipad air using 8.02?

    Hi DizzyTaco2,
    If you are having issues with an Apple application such as iBooks freezing or quitting unexpectedly on your iPad, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
    iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • TS1538 I have updated both my Itune and Ipad mini , however, when I click on the device icon (beside itune store), it disappear. Why does this happen?

    I have updated both my Itune and Ipad mini , however, when I click on the device icon (beside itune store), it disappear. Why does this happen?

    I'm not sure why this would happen. But I think I did see another post a week or two ago about this. Have you tried rebooting your computer and resetting your iPad.
    To reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • Why does playing solitaire on ipad shut off sounds

    why does playing solitaire on ipad shut off sounds

    You can try a couple of things You may have too much going on in the background now.
    Double tap the home button to bring up your recent apps. Hold down on one of the app icons until they all wiggle. Then tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the apps and to close them. Close all of your apps. Tap the home button to stop the wiggling then tap the screen. Now reboot - hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. Hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and then let go of the button. Try the iPod app and then start playing Pocket Frogs and see what happens.
    You can also try a reset by holding down on the sleep button and home button at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. Try the iPod app and the game again.

    why does my ipod charge halfway then stop?

    - See:      
    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.

  • Why does Adobe invoice charging VAT from Ireland to Spain?

    Why does Adobe invoice charging VAT from Ireland to Spain?

    Please refer to:
    1.VAT - Adobe Ireland?
    2.I have an email receipt.  Did you charge sales tax for the downloads?
    3.Billing: German VAT 23% ???
    4.Why is Adobe's UK website charging 23% VAT on Photoshop Elements 12 ?
    5.Adobe Store | Online order and payment FAQ
    n most parts of the world, Adobe is legally required to charge sales tax according to the calculations you see when you purchase online. If Adobe doesn't charge taxes, you are sometimes still liable to pay the taxes yourself.
    Adobe is registered in many different countries for which it is responsible for charging and collecting VAT/GST. For most sales, the rate charged depends on the country from which the goods or services are delivered. In Adobe European stores, you are charged the relevant VAT rate for hard goods and services.

  • My iPad does not start. What can be the problem

    My iPad does not start. What can be the problem

    Does anything happens when you try to switch it on ? If not, then assuming that the battery isn't empty (and it can take up to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
