After upgrade to IOS6 my battery dies very fast? any fix?
I updated my itouch to IOS6 and now my battery dies in just a few hours. Is there a fix or can I uninstall the upgrade . This is bad news as I use this device a lot.
My battery is life is back to normal after deleting my Facebook account from the intergrated FB feature (Settings, Facebook, click your name, Delete Account). I started thinking that since the FB integration updates your contacts and calendar it is probably constantly receiving data. My battery seems to be back to normal after doing that. I was also using the new Maps app a lot over the weekend because I am a Realtor and was out showing property (BTW - I hate the new maps app, Google finds businesses by name almost 100% of the time and Apple's app does not). I have shut down the Maps app so that could also be a factor. I see where several people have said they fixed their battery drain by reinstalling the iOS6 update thru iTunes, but I updated mine originally thru iTunes, and noticed the battery drain the same day. I went through right after I updated and made sure everything I always had done on my phone to save battery life was set like I like it (brightness, mail to no fetch, no synching with iCloud, etc). I also do not use Siri so I know that did not contribute to the battery problem. I truly think it was because of FB. Since changing that, my phone has only dropped 6% in 3 hours and I have talked on it a couple of times. I have a 4s.

iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
New cable and different USB port?
Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
Try on another computer to help determine if computer or iPod problem
Try using this program to place the iPod in recovery mode

After upgrading to ios6, my battery life is cut in half.
Battery life has been cut in half after upgrading. Sometimes, when taking phone out of the case, it's very hot & the battery is almost gone even though it hasn't been used since charging.
I would have to agree. I think that the update is affecting some users. I am guessing you are using a touch. I boutght mine a year ago, it had i4 on it, after the update to i5 i noticed a vast improvment on the battery life. After the update to i5 (which igmackenzie) has nothing to do with how you updated it, wi-fi or hard wired, as long as it takes you are good. It does seem that for some reason, i5 has a finiky issue when it comes to correctly updated apps (i5 ready) and the app store crashing. (have updated about 75% of mine and the issue seems to have resovlved its-self.)
As a long time user of this site for issues i am having and a long time mac user, will you please keep your opinions out of it. this is a help site, for people to remedy issues. NOT a blog for user forum. Appleinsider has a great place for you to discuss your OPINIONS, as for your HELPFUL advice, that is greatly appreciated. But it does appear that the user basically figured it out on their own. -
It's hardly used, and is at 20% by noon. Dies way faster than my Iphone 4.
It's possible that you have an app stuck sending data or attempting to send data and failing. Any app that can run in background can be at fault. If you have an Exchange email account that could be the problem; if you do, try turning the account switches off in Settings/Mail,Contacts,Calendars. Reboot the phone, and turn them back on. Other than that social networking apps can also drain the battery fast; Facebook, Find Friends, etc. You can kill them in the Quick Launch bar. When on the Home screen double-press the HOME button, then hold your finger on one of the apps across the bottom until "-" appears on them. Tap the "-" on each suspect app (or all apps to be safe) to close the app.

My battery on my bb has been dieing very fast in standby. I have no apps running no wifi no blue tooth. I have may found the issue that might be a bigger issue with my phone what you say. The signal can go from 4 bars to no bars and stay at no bars for a few then jump back up to 4 bars. This I think happens all the time there for my battery being dead all the time. I looked at Verizon's map and I get full coverage in my house and my bb does not leave my house.
Please give me Kudos if you feel like I helped you
Thank you
cuse165The map really doesn't matter here, coverage can vary due to many factors such as terrain, etc.
IF you device is constantly searching for a signal, that can drain the battery.

I had similar issue with one of the macbooks in the office. Make sure you've got latest firmware installed (run Software Update). This resolved the issue for us instantly (you may need to reboot mac AFTER firmware upgrade for this to work).

My iphone 4s was stopped working after upgrading to IOS6.
My iphone 4s was stopped working 2 days after upgrading to IOS6. Apple replaced it however same issue after upgrade. The new phone keeps reseting it self and turns it self off. Sometimes can not turn it on for hours, drains the battery really really quick. Anybody with same issues?
It is probably still worth while taking it to an Apple store for a possible OOW replacement and let them make the decision, as it was broken before the OP took the back off.

im not able to activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading to ios6, saying server not available try later. im not able to make my phone work, not able to bring serial # im in guatemala what i can do?
Activation issues are almost always the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken.
If this is the case, no support can be provided here. -
how can i activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading to ios6? it could not activate....
If your phone was previously hacked to unlock it, when you updated the hack was removed and it's re-locked to the original carrier. The phone will now activate and operate only with that original carrier.

After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading. I have no special software like numbers or anything else installed on either device. Just using the default viewer provided by apple for viewing email.
The attachment is an .xls excel 97-2003 spreadsheet. I viewed the file in the email and did not edit it with any software. I can forward the file to anyone that is may want to check it out to see if they can help me. I was wondering if there was some way of forcing another ios6 install on my phone and maybe that would solve it.
Is there anyone out there that is viewing .xls files in email using ios6 w/o any other software installed like numbers or any other add ons? I am not upgrading my ipad from ios5 to ios6 so I can still continue to view the emails on my ipad. Is there an email viewer .xls plug-in that will be availablle in the next ios6 update?
