After update to ios 8.1.2, iPhone 6 battery suffers.
Hi, after upgrading a few days ago to the latest IOS, my battery is draining out by the afternoon.
Help! Anyone else having this issue?

also power cycle your battery let it fully drain to where your phone shuts off then fully charge it without using it.
also you can check what app is draining your battery - settings - general - usage - battery usage.

3 months back I upgraded from iPhone 4s to 5s and realised 4s is a much better phone. It gave me longer battery life of around 8.30 hrs of usage on 2g and 7 hrs on 3G but 5s was giving me only 7 hours of usage on 2g and 5 hours on 3g but since I've updated it to ios 7.1 my battery ***** even more. It takes longer to charge and shorter to drain. Now I get only 4 hours usage on 2g and somewhat 3hrs roughly on 3G and it takes around 3 hours to charge where awe it used to take only 100 minutes perfectly. I don't know what's wrong with apple. I was a huge apple fan when I had my 4s but now I'm disappointed. But worst thing comes last night, I usually lose around 10% due to my network's pop up messages overnight but last night i lost 37%. When I got up and checked usage it shows me 6 hrs 30 minutes usage but I haven't used my phone since I was sleeping. Hope a new update releases soon to patch this but till that some advices on saving battery would be appreciated, thank you.
Please be more specific. What have you tried already? Please follow the below steps as described also in another topic by Nathan.
1. Hard reset hold both buttons until Apple logo appears.
2. Restore from an iTunes sync and backup. This made a difference for a lot of peopel, battery life got much better.
3. Limit push notifications (apps and e-mail accounts - set e.g. e-mail to fetch once an hour) to those you really need.
4. Limit location services to those you really need, and watch to see if the indicator comes up.
5. Get the app System Activity Monitor to look for a runaway process that is using a lot of CPU.
6. Suggestion by others to reset all settings.
7. Suggestion by others that iCloud may be involved, and to try to turn off some iCloud settings.
8. Limit or turn off 'background app refresh'.
9. Add apps back in carefully to identify an offending app that is causing CPU or network activity that kills battery life.
10 Also make sure that e-mail is fetched (e.g. every hour) or set to manual instead of pushed.
11 Do you have a good carrier reception? Have you tried to manual set your carrier within your iPhone instead of the 'automatic'?
12 Have you checked if the timezone is set to manual instead of automatic and see if this makes a difference in battery use?
In my case it was a bug with an app that caused the battery drain. I also noticed that the use and stand-by time were exactly the same which is ofcourse not correct. This was all caused by this app which was using GPS tracking all the time. Unfortunately an app such as System Activity Monitor did not indicate that in my case but someone posted this solution on a Dutch forum that the previous version of the app 'Scoupy' had a bug and caused this battery drain.
If you haven't tried every single one of these, please do not post that battery life is terrible. -
After updating to ios 8 on my iphone 4s, all my music from iphone disappered. I tried all the suggestions, but I cant see music folder in the settings-general at all. I signed out of icloud as well, but still cannot sync with itune on my macbookpro. Can any one help?
Hello babichanjacob
Change how it syncs by enabling Manually manage music and videos, then you can drag and drop the music that you want on your iPhone. Revert it back to test to see if that resolves the issue.

After updating to iOS 6.1.2, iPhone 5 can't connect to iTunes. When i am trying to connect, then i can connect. After secods, the phone is not connecting with iTunes again. Then Automatically connect to iTunes again by itself.
My sound works with headphones, the alarm works, ringer works but can not listen to any music/videos without headphones plugged in.
Then lock screen bugs; bypass fumble. When I start to open the iPhone and swiping is heavily to do on the slide to unlock. What's the matter with it?firstly thanks for quick reply.
sorry sir,
i am confused in last line you wrote,
" This will erase the phone but you will be given an option at the end to restore to an existing backup, if you have one."
i did not understand last sentence - if i have one? you mean to say if i have data or not in my iphone?
i have many pictures, messages, contacts which are very much important.
so will it be all restore and will be backup again in my iphone if i restore?
i am extremely sorry to interrupt you again.
waiting for your quick reply
thanks and regards,

After updating to iOS 7 for my iPhone 5, my phone is now in constant vibrate mode.
After updating to iOS 7 for my iPhone 5 last week, my sounds went away. Phone is randomly showing the ringer silent graphic without me touching the phone or putting it into this mode. The volume settings under sounds are on, notifications are all correct also, the vibrate switch on the side is NOT in the vibrate position. After pouring over threads for the past week, one suggestion fixed it for a day, but it's now reverted back to vibrate only mode! I went to settings----general-----accessibility----under hearing switched mono audio off, like I said, fixed the problem for a day, but now that no longer works! It really seems to be a bug with the software update, which the the 7.0.3 did not fix. Help, would like my phone to work normally again. Suggestions?
Hi chuckrabaw,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like the iPhone is searchiong for a network. It looks like you have already done some troubleshooting. There are a few steps listed in this article you did not mention trying, they may be able to help the issue.

AFTER UPDATING THE IOS 8 IN MY IPHONE THE PHONE MEMORY REDUCED TO 5.5 GB WHICH IS VERY LOW COMPARED TO 8GB. IWANT DEGRADE IT TO IOS 7.1.2
You must have upgraded the device directly through WIFi, restore your device via ITUNES and thats gonna work, it will reduce the space occupied by the new software installation

Second day after updating to iOS 6 on my iPhone 4, my contacts have duplicated. Probably not all but many, and my contacts already numbered in the thousands.
Please tell me there is an easy fix to this problem!! I already had to go through contact-by-contact when I bought this phone and added contacts from my Blackberry and MS Outlook on the phone. Many duplicated at that time and Apple said the only fix was to go through each one and decide to keep or delete. I really don't want to do that again!I had this problem while I had iOS 5.1.1 installed for many months. Fortunately I only have about 150 contacts and only about half of them duplicated. I found that my problem was the way thing were set up in Outlook. I removed all of the duplicates and corrected everything in Outlook contacts (ignoring the address book) and have not had the problem since, Hope this helps.

After updating to ios 6 on my iphone 4, my mail,contact disappeared,can anyone help
My suggestion:
Reset your device: Settings>>General>>Reset>>Reset All Ajustments.
It will restore to all company ajustments, but it will not delete anything at all.
After that, do not Sign In Facebook, I see many people got problems after Sign In Facebook.
In my device, I do not fill last names, I just fill names in "First Name".
Another question: Are you sync your contacts with Outlook or iCloud? I have suggested another one to do not sync with Outlook and, in iTunes:
1.In resume, mark "Backup in iCloud"
2. open Information and unmark the "Sync Contacts With". roll down the page and, in "Advance" field, unmark everything.
3.Sync your device again.
It probably will help you.
Good Luck -
I have an Iphone 4s factory unlocked. I got At&t again and after updating to iOS 6.0 my iphone its not working propertly. I dont have the carriers option nor Im able to face time using cellular data. Any suggestions!?
Do you have an AT&T carrier file number showing? The only time you can use Facetime on AT&T cellular is if you are using one of their Shared Data plans. While they have not locked your phone, it appears their carrier file is in control of your device when you have the AT&T SIM card in there.

After updating to IOS 6, I cannot update apps, it produces a MSG you cannot use your ID in the US store. my apple store is in Greece how can I change this from iPhone/ IPad?
I am back with an update. I turned off Match on both the ipad and the iphone 5. By doing so I was able to sync my Iphone and ipad to itunes and store the music on my devices rather than the slow streaming. So far this has fixed my problems with the iphone I have all my music, playlist, most of the album art and so on. But the ipad is a different story. I have the music and artist but not one playlist I am sure Apple will have an upgrade soon that will address these issues they are usually very good about this.
Now have any of you experienced another problem that has existed as long as I have used faces in Aperture.
I have over 200 faces and they are organized a-z problem is I have this going on A-Z folowed by a few that start over A-Z followed by another few A-Z and again a 4th time A-Z. Imagine how difficult it is while I am showing someone the great features of my iphone, ipad and imac. Which I do talk highly of all the time. But how do I explain that even though their name starts with a or b or what ever they are not important enough to me to be in the first list of A-Z or even the 2nd or 3rd list of A-Z someohow they are in the 4th section of the list!!!!
I have managed to get the Imac to fix this but for some reason the IOS devices do not. Any ideas?
Thanks Al -
After updating to ios 6.0 my iphone doesnt notify of text messages
After updating to ios 6 my iphone doesnt notify of text messages
Verify the Messages notifications are enabled.
Settings > Notifications > Messages > Alert Style > Set to anything other then None, although Banners go away automatically.
Also double check here that the Badge App Icon is enabled, so you'll see that red number with the amount of messages waiting to be viewed. You'll also have an option here to View in Lock Screen. -
Why can't i connect to wifi after updating to iOs 6 on my iPhone 4s
After updating to iOs 6 when I try to connect to my wifi network it pops up with the apple website and login and says the page you requesed cant be found on the pop up.??
Confused.The Apple Support person walked me thru this. If you have the classic 'greyed out' wifi problem with your iPhone 4s. Very easily fixed:
Read all instructions before starting:
1. Try to toggle on/off airplane mode check.
2. Try the old turn on/off trick. Check.
3. Try resetting Network Settings. Settings > General > Reset Network Settings Check.
4. Ensure your phone is backed up to iCloud before proceeding. Very important you do this. Check.
5. Wipe your phone. Settings > General > Reset All Settings. Keep in mind this will wipe your phone but you have that iCloud back up.
6. Check if wifi is working. No, then no prolbem: You have the option to have your 4s fixed which is probably out of warranty. No deal? Ok, you have the option of purchasing a new phone? Still no deal? Proceed to next step if these options are no good and you decide to live without wifi.
7. Restore your phone from the iCloud. Oh, you don't have wifi. Then you can't restore your phone.
This is where i got dropped off the bus.
