After Battery Update, Battery Tops Off At 96%

Hi. Have a MacBook and I did the battery update recommendation and now the battery never reaches 100% charge, it always goes to 96% and it runs down much faster. Has anyone else noticed any differences in the MacBook batteries after the update 1.2?
Thanks steve

hey, i'm having this same problem but i've been noticing that it's because temperatures are spiking up to 130 C when i run Rember for only 30 seconds. This has only been happening after the battery update, before i was only getting maxed out temps of 75C

  • After keyboard update Aiport is Off

    After I updated to MBP software update 1.1 on every startup my airport is off. When I enable it, it comes off again. Second time it stays on and takes long time to find my wireless network. Very annoying as prior to update I repaired permissions and did system maintenance. Anyone has similar problem.
    Take care

    So I went down to the local Apple store hoping that the Genius Bar would be a useful resource. The guy tells me to reformat my Apple (I think he wants me to reformat it because it seems really slow, but that's another problem), but even I could have figured that out. So, I dig a little deeper and find a partial solution to the problem:
    If you have an open wireless network, your airport should be fine. Connecting to these wireless access points should be no problem. If you run into problems, use the Diagnostics program listed below.
    If you have a closed wireless network, use the "Assist Me..." button in System Preferences: Network, then use "Diagnostics..." to add another network to your system. (Note: Keep in mind you need to know the exact network name and WEP Password, but I think that's a given.)
    Hope this helps!

    P.S. I know this is probably a fix that everyone knows, but I recently switched to a Mac after a 10 year hiatus, so I'm a little rusty. Sorry!

  • 3GS Battery tops off?

    Hi everyone. I have an iPhone 3GS and I noticed something yesterday. When I wake up, my iPhone battery is at 100% with the plug logo, meaning it's fully charged. If I begin to play with it for 2 minutes while still on the charger, the percentage drops to 98/99% and begins to charge again until it becomes full.
    Once it becomes full again and I use it for another minute or two, the percentage stays at 100% but the icon now changes to the 'lighting bolt' to indicate it's charging again. It's a 3-day old phone and so far it's gone through 2 full charge cycles (100%->0%->100%).
    Is anyone else witnessing this? Thanks!

    Same here. I'm sure not going to worry about it. Likely new, more "sophisticated" design

  • After latest update iTunes cuts off all songs after about 3 secs.

    Just updated iTunes to version 11.1.3.8.  Now when I attempt to play my music from the Cloud each song begins and then cuts out after about 3-5 secs.
    Same thing happens when I attempt to listen to previews in the iTunes store.
    Sure hope this isn't related to the problem discussed in an 18 month old thread I found here.

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • Anyone having same problem? I phone 4 after updating to Vers.5.1.1. battery cannot be 100% full charge, always stop at 99% and battery drains off fast too :(

    Anyone having same problem? I phone 4 after updating to Vers.5.1.1. battery cannot be 100% full charge, always stop at 99% and battery drains off fast too

    I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
    The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
    if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
    Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
    turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!

  • After the update how do you click the apps to shut them off so battery isn't draining

    After the update how do you shut down the apps so they aren't running in the background?

    These apps aren't open; they are in a suspended state.
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
    iOS: Force an app to close

  • Startup Slow Down After Battery Update

    Hi all, I just installed the Battery 1.2 update days ago. The startup speed changed to very slow after the update and thought it's just some effect after update, but after a few times of starting up the machine, it still the same slow speed. Any idea why?
    Edit: Since I'm asking a question, let's ask more at once :P
    I seldom turn off my laptop, many times I find that the folder name messed up, some times even gone, a folder without a name on it too. I turn off / restart every 2 to 3 days, is this the main reason?

    Here is the forum for you

    Hello, skypeisawfull-,
    Thanks for submitting feedback about the battery life of Skype for Android. The developers of the app are making great strides to improve the functionality and other aspects, including battery life, so that it runs better for its users!
    Skype, by nature, does use more battery than many other apps. It should be understood that it has to constantly contact Skype's servers in order to receive incoming call, chat and contact data. You can reduce the amount of battery usage by closing some other apps that you do not use, reducing screen use time, ensuring that you are in areas with good reception (because cell standby greatly reduces battery) and rebooting the phone after a day or two can make a difference in your battery life. 
    Remember that the development team has surely made it a priority to make the app consume less battery and kill off the bugs that cause that. They probably have more in store, so just you wait and see! Things could be looking good! With you posting this, they'll take notice and probably work to reduce that 26% usage to something lower in later updates!
    Thanks for the feedback - keep 'em coming!
    I.T. Professional

  • So my iPhone 4S started draining battery after recent update, battery got changed and it worked perfect for 3 days, all of a sudden the phone won't stay on unless connected to mains... Cannot receive any signal "searching" constantly. HELP

    So my iPhone 4S started draining battery after recent update, battery got changed and it worked perfect for 3 days, all of a sudden the phone  shut down and now won't stay on unless connected to mains... Claims its at 100% battery but thats impossible as it was at 30% before it shut down randomly.
    Cannot receive any signal "searching" constantly.
    Turns off as soon as removed from usb ... wont stay on connected to laptop!
    HELP!

    The iPhone includes a one year warranty. If an Apple store is not nearby, you can call AppleCare and handle an exchange under warranty over the phone. The exchange will be shipped to your door - someone must sign for the delivery so if no one will be at home, have it delivered where you work. You use the same box to return the existing iPhone back to Apple. Return shipping label and tape to reveal the box incuded - call the carrier with number incuded when the box is ready to be picked up. AppleCare will request a credit card in the event the existing iPhone is not returned within 10 days after the exchange under warranty is received.
    Hardware can fail - it happens, which is why there is a one year warranty.

  • Heavy battery drain after OS Update 10.3.1.1779

    couple of days ago my phone (Z10) upgraded to new software version 10.3.1.1779. Now the battery barely lasts four to five hours. Usually not more than four. Is this a f****ng joke, Blackberry?!  I checked and I constantly have PIM services at 30-40 %, which is the main battery drainer. Following the suggestions on some of the forums I tried deleting accounts and found one that - being deleted - solves the problem. However, when I add it again it drains the battery again. The point is that i MUST have it on. this is mail only, no calendars, contacts. When I add it I left the phone overnight to download all it needed, 12 hours later PIM services still run at 30-40% all the time. Reloading the software does not help either.  pls help, I am running out the ideas... I can't keep my phone connected to charger at all times...

    After any OS upgrade on a BB10 device, it will take 48-72 hours for the device data syncing of email, contacts, social apps, etc., to complete and finish. High data transfer after an upgrade cause high processor use, which in turn causes high battery usage. Likewise, high processor use will cause some lag and initial slowness. Ignore and and be patient. It can take the 48 hours for all contacts to sync back to the device. And, the battery will recover after a few days. Just don't drain your battery to 10% or less each time, top off the charge. You'll notice a difference after a couple days. Additionally, look at your Device Manager and in the top pull down menu tap LAST 24 HOURSTap the Battery tab at bottom. What are the top 3-4 processes draining the battery?Tap the CPU tab, what are the top 3-4 processes using the CPU?  

  • Macbook battery not charging after software update

    I was doing some work on my MacBook (4,1) with the charger plugged in and the lid closed (I was using my TV as a montior. There was a software update for itunes and a few others and now it's saying the battery needs to be serviced!
    The battery currently has 62% charge, i've not disconnected the charger once in teh few hours I was working. Anyone got any ideas as to what could cause this?
    The change to needing the battery serviced was not straight after the update, I don't think so anyway. I've not really noticed it until I went to pick up my MacBook and it all started to go haywire. It because unresponsive, black screen etc.
    I've tried to reset the SMC and i've checked the charge cycyles too and it's about 250 so there's no problem there. It's just annoying as this is the 3rd battery i've had for this macbook, the other two being replaced under warranty. Now the warranty is up and it needs chaging for a 4th time!

    Hi imi_uk,
    I see you marked this question as "solved" is that the case?
    If not, are you able to startup your computer via "safe boot" by holding the SHIFT key on startup (until the Apple logo appears and the gear appears below it).
    The next step, would also be to boot off the system restore disc that came with your computer and attempt to repair the volume (the internal HD) via the the built-in disc utility.

  • Lumia 820 battery drain after "Black" update

    Hi all,
    Yesterday I finally received the black update on my NL820. After applying the update successfully I charged the phone to %100. Before I went to bed I had:
    Battery at %94
    Wifi - Off
    Data services - Off
    Location services - Off
    Bluetooth - Off
    Battery Saver - On
    This morning I wake up and it is unusually bright outside - the phone powered off, the alarm didn't go off and I overslept for work. I haven't touched any other settings after the update. Everything is the way I used it before. What is it that could drain a battery in the space of 8 hours from almost full to power off? I've had this happen on the same phone twice prior to the upgrade as well but then I thought I've forgot data services on or something. This time I'm sure everything was off.
    Please advise.
    Martin

    I have been using Lumia 820 since 1 year and have never faced any issues. But after the recent "black" update... my mobile battery drains out within few hours after i charge it 100%. I have to charge it 3-4 times in a day ..
    1. I dont have any GPRS connection.
    2. I use wifi at home (only evenings). The rest of the day.. I use it only for calls and texts.
    3. I have tried hard reset, but that dint help.
    4. After hard reset, I dint update my mobile software.
    I charge it till 11pm and when I wake up at 5 am .. I see the mobile is switched off and I cant depend on the alarm to wake me up . That makes me so nervous.
    Please bring out some solution to this problem. It is so irritating to charge the mobile for so many times in day.

  • IPhone 5 keeps turning off after battery replacement

    iPhone 5 keeps turning off after battery replacement. After 10 minutes or so, the phone freezes and shuts off, can't even use it anymore.

  • Battery is dwindling after the update of iOS8 in 5S.

    Battery is dwindling after the update of iOS8 in 5S.

    I'm having the same problem with my battery after the 7.1.1. update. First off, my 5s is EXTREMELY slow to get a full 100% charge. It used to charge super fast. And now the battery drains even while on not being used. This morning, I woke up and it was on 21% and was hot to the touch.
    Went to the Apple Store yesterday, they told me the battery itself is fine. They told me to turn off a lot of my settings for location services, backround refresh, etc. What's the point of having these features if I need to keep them turned off?
    Called them today. I tried a factory restore. Let's see if this works. I'm praying Apple releases another update to fix this!
