Battery drain on iPad mini after iOS 7 update
Please help! My iPad mini 16GB cannot hold more than a 5 hour charge after I upgraded it to ios 7. Is there any way to fix this?
Those are all good suggestions but totally irrelevant to my question. My observation is that my iPad's battery life declined substantially AFTER the upgrade to iOS 7.1.1 running exactly the same apps as before the upgrade. While it technically is possible to stop running background services and shutting off push mail, it only represents work-arounds when the root-cause is a flawed OS upgrade.

No sound on iPad mini after iOS 8 update
After updating my iPad mini to iOS 8 I found I couldn't hear any sounds. It is not muted, all sounds are up, and even tried with headphones. Can't hear music, games, keyboard clicks, nothing. I also updated my iPhone5 and the sound is fine there. Anyone else have this problem or know a solution?
And yes I checked the physical volume/mute buttons on the side as well as in the settings/sound menu.Amagno
u r probably using the wrong button, is not volume. I hope you have an iPad with the slider.
but, in any case, try yo replicate the environment for the solution, and, if you DO NOT have the 'rotation lock" slider as "rotation lock" and directly in "sound off" go back one step and put it in "rotation lock" … try to use volume button, that it will not work and then do as below ...
I solved this on my ipad mini retina by setting the 'rotation lock' slider to 'sound off':
- Go to Setting->General
- Change from rotation lock to sound off.
- Wiggle the slider: sound will return
- Now you can set the slider back to rotation lock again

IPad Mini after iOS 8.3 update causes iPhoto 11 repeats
After upgrading both iPhone 5S and iPad Mini to iOS 8.3 I sync them to my Mac Pro 1.1 Lion there is a peculiar repeat of iPhoto 11 continually trying to load photos.
It counts the quantity then the iPad or iPhone dismounts. It remounts and it starts again. I shut the iPhoto down and restarted the app. It continues to do it. I will rebooting the Mac Pro and try it.
Heads for of you still running Mac Pro 1.1 with Lion.You can preform a DFU restore.
Follow my steps:
- power down your iPad
- Hold down the home button and don't let go
- Plug the iPad to your computer
- Do not let go the home button
- ITunes will prompt you that the iPad is recovery stage
- Restore your iPad
You should be all set and updated issue free.

Over heating and battery drain on iPhone 4 after iOS 7.1 update
I am facing heavy battery drain and overheating after updating my iPhone 4 to IOS 7.1
The battery discharges @ 1% for every minute - when not in use / idle. The handset stays uncomfortably warm. The background app refresh, location services, screen brightness etc have been switched off/kept to the minimum. Though there is significant improvement in responsiveness. There were no battery/overheating issues with iOS 7.0.6.
Have reset all settings, switched on/off, given a hard boot (power button + home button) but no use.
Suggestions to resolve this are welcome.This is not a software issue!!!. Yes, it may cause by the software update.. I had the same issue with my Iphone5 after 7.1.. I went crazy .. seeing my battery draining 1% a minute without using it.. and it took more than 7 hours to charge completely. Worst my IPhone was out of warranty cant take it back to Apple to have it fixed.
Things already did -
I changed the battery
Restored the phone
Switched to setting basically nothing
Waited for 7.1.1 to come out and then update the phone
But none of these helped at all
So i rolled the last dice.. took my phone to a local technician (in Philippines). They said none of the above will resolve the issue.
What exactly went wrong was the - USB POWER MANAGEMENT CONTROLLER IC U2 was busted. Once this was replaced my phone worked just fine. in fact I was amazed with the results.
My phone charged 100% from 20% in less than 60 minutes.
Now my battery lasts for more than 15 hours ( i do not use mobile data only Wi-Fi)
So if your phone is out of warranty no harm in getting this part replaced. If within warranty you may get a replacement handset.
Now to what causes this as per the technician " Every update from apple tries to exclude accessories that are not certified, and you do get the pop up that this accessory may not be supported" continue to use the charger will fry the IC U2 .
Hope this Helps goodluck -
Unable to move and scale photos for wallpaper on IPad mini after iOS 7 update.
After update to iOS7 on my IPad mini, I am able to select my personal photos for the wallpaper, but I cannot move and scale them to fit. The option is there but unresponsive. I already had to remove the protective case to access the new control panel via up swipe which must begin below the screen next to the "home" button to initiate. Now I can no longer personalize the wall paper with my own photos. It's been a frustrating experience without any real perceptible improvements.
What a nightmare! Had I known what was in store for me, I would never have updated my iPAD Mini to iOS7.
The calendar with it's ultra-thin Helvetica is near impossible to see. To add insult to injury, not being able
to move and size a wallpaper photo is just totally unacceptable. So annoying when software is thrown out
there for the general public when it's obviously not ready. I tried the solution:
Go to Settings > General > Assessibility > Reduce Motion "set to OFF"
Next, in Settings > Wallpapers & Brightness > Choose Wallpaper (pick the wallpaper) - you should now be able to "Move and Scale" the photo that you've chosen for your wallpaper.
After you've SET the wallpaper, you can go back to Parallax motion by turning Reduce Motion to "ON" (see step 1)
And it just DOES NOT WORK. Plain and simple. I am so tired of Apple products that have bugs that we are all expected to work through and work out while paying anywhere from $500 to $2000 for a product. And of course you can't get online support in a quick, efficient manner. My big old $600 bite out the Apple is tasting mighty sour at the moment. -
I open up the Photos app on my iPad Mini to choose a photograph to use on my home screen and lock screen. First, I hit Select located in the upper right side of the screen of the app and I choose a photograph to use. Second, I choose AirDrop located on the upper left corner of the app. Afterwards, I choose Use as Wallpaper found in AirDrop. Next, the photo is shown with the words Move and Scale on it. Then I choose Set Lock Screen, Set Home Screen and Set Both, not all do these at once though. When I click on each of these buttons nothing happens. The photograph I chose will not show up on my Lock Screen and Home Screen. I want to set this photograph to show up on both my Lock Screen and my Home Screen. I am getting very frustrated that I can not set a photograph to Set Both so that it shows up on both my Lock Screen and Home Screen at the same time. I forgot to say that I just went to my settings, then general, then reset and finally Reset All Settings before doing this, because I could not download any new apps at all. I am wondering if this has anything to do with this? I am willing to take any help I can get. In the end, I end up hitting cancel, because I am very frustrated.
Hello there, RedHead101.
The following iPhone Basics guide should help you with how to do this. It should work just like that on your iPad:

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

My Ipad mini is in a constant reset loop since 7.02 upgrade. Did a full recover twice to Factory setting thru Itunes. That did not work. Any thoughts on this release and it's implications. Looks like many people are having the same issues.
Hi gruhland,
Thanks for your reply. It sounds like your device is actually in a restart loop, which is different from the process of a soft reset. Specifically, what I wanted you to try is this:
Resetting your device
If your device stops responding, you can reset it by pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If resetting does not break the restart loop, it sounds like a different direction may be warranted here. Due to the nature of your issue you may find more assistance by using another one of Apple's support resources:

Take care,

Bluetooth stopped working on my ipad mini after ios7 update
Bluetooth stopped working on my ipad mini and my iphone 5 after I updated to ios 7. My Ipad 4 which is not updated can't see them either. Samsung devices can see them but not connect and they can't see each other. Help
Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Battery fail in iPod 5 after iOS update to 8.1.2
Battery level in my iPod 5 ran out from 100% to 0% in 6-8 hours without using it after update new iOS 8.1.2.
Then the device automatic shutting down completely and can't recharge it with a normal apple adapter.
I have to recharge it using computer. Is that a bug of new iOS or is it a hardware problem?Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable. The cable for 5G iPod (lightning connector) seems to be more prone to failure than the older cable. Also, iOS updates seems to make the iPod more susceptible to marginal cables
- If a 5G iPod

- 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.

If not then what country did you buy the iPad in, and what country are you now in ? It's not available in some countries (e.g. UAE, Saudi Arabia), and if bought in the Middle East then from http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937 :

IBook crashes on ipad mini after iOS 7 upgrade
Upgraded ipad miņi to iOS 7. Cannot launch iBook. Crashes upon launching. Deleted app & reinstalled. (Several times) No difference. Still crashes. Am afraid to restart as fear the loss of purchased books :(
It started this morning.I've put some PDF files on my IBooks Shelves and right after, it started to go wild. If I open my IBooks, I can see the shelves and after, let say 7sec, it closes, even if I'm reading something that is not a PDF. I resetted my IPad mini, closed it, went to the IBooks settings in the Ipad settings, nothing works. I will try to put my PDF files on my Google Drive and delete them from IBooks. It must be a comparibility issue with something that comes from somewhere else then Apple.

I have a line on my ipad screen after ios update
I updated to ios 8 about two hours ago, right after the update finished i got this line that runs the whole length of the screen. It's an ipad with retina display.
At first i just turned it off and then back on. When starting up the line is white and it doesn't go the whole length. But when it's done loading the system it's black.
I've already tried restoring the ipad, that didn't work.
And another problem (related to this) is that when i opened this app with a dark background i could see the things i had opened. The apple logo from start up, the text from the twitter app, all translucent, but visible.
All this didn't happen before, it started right after the update.
I fear the software could somehow damaged the hardware. Any ideas, please?Hm... That's very strange. Are the apps made by the same developer? If so, it may have something to do with that. There may be a fault in the programming.
