Battery drain with 2 Push accounts Mobile Me and Microsoft exchange:

One might ask why I need two. Well, I started with a Microsoft Exchange account,, and now am trying Mobile Me. For now they are both being pushed to me. Do I get extra drain from having 2 accounts? I wonder if I get twice the drainage with 2 instead of 1 account. I had done a restore from backup when I got my new 3GS,, and didn't notice too much drain, but thought I could do better, so I restored a fresh 3.0 firmware, without a backup,, funny thing is, that I thought I would enhance battery life. So far, it seems worse than my restore from backup . All that work, with little improvement to show for it

You are going to get more battery drain with the 2 push accounts. Try removing the Exchange account for one day and see what happens to the battery life.

Paul,
I hope you are right, but I fear you are not.
I was told by my att guy that if I wanted to access my Exchange Server that I would have to pay the extra $15/mo. When I questioned him, he told that the only difference between the standard and the Enterprise accounts was the Exchange Server option.
Again, it would be really nice if that turns out not to be the case, because I will probably just stick with the standard service rather than pay the additional $15 just for Push.
I'm sorry to say this, but he is wrong.
All of our hand held users at out office have phones that are paid for on their own account. We do not utilize business accounts. They are able to get ActiveSync just fine.
Even from AT&T's own main page on individual accounts [here|http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-phone-service/legal/plan-terms.jsp] they do not make any statement that you must have a business account to access exchange. AT&T does not make this requirement for any of their Windows Mobile phones with ActiveSync. None. Why would this be different with the iPhone?
I am sorry to tell you that if enterprise mail was not included on individual accounts, than why do their terms or usage talk about it. If corporate access to email was prerequisite by a business account, than why do their personal account pages mention corporate email access. Their Business page only applies to partnerships that AT&T has with various business. For proof I went to their page and entered in my email address. Sure enough, I [failed|http://www.wireless.att.com/businesscenter/auth_fail.jsp]. This was why:
Your company or school web site address was not found in our records. Check with your Telecom or Benefits Administrator to see if your company or school is a current AT&T business customer.
We don't have a partnership with AT&T. I know this already. Yet at the same time I know several people in out organization that use ActiveSync and have AT&T personal account - I know that for a fact since I spoke with them about it. They have no restrictions. By your assertion, since we are not a business customer, several employees should not be accessing Exchange. They are.

Upgrade to OS4.1 causes fast battery drain with WiFi on

I've just upgraded the software on my 3G Pod to 4.1, only to find that it has led to a much quicker battery drain with the WiFi on. Is there a fix for this or can I revert to the previous OS?

Owen Glyndwr wrote:
Thanks llaass, but the discussion that you direct me to does not really address the issue of why a very recent upgrade should make such a significant difference. I had already realised that turning off WiFi makes a difference. Perhaps my question should have been addressed to Apple, since it appears that it is their so called 'upgrade' that has led to a deterioration.
I'm using iOS 4.1 on my iPod Touch 3 gen with no battery drain problem. This suggests that there is another factor at play which must be present to provoke this problem between the iPod and iOS (i.e., a specific App, a router type, or ?).

Iphone 4S battery drain with iOS 5.0.1

I am experiencing just about the same battery drain with the iOS update as I did before.
I was wondering how many of you had the battery drain problem, updates to iOS 5.0.1 and had that actually solve your battery problem.

I have IPhone 4 and I updated the IOS to version 5. After the update the battery lasts about a day. After the update to 5.0.1 the battery lasts a day and a half. It is an improvement, but not as I expected.
The next step is to disable configuration options like:
- downgrade from 3G network to 2G
- disable Data services
- disable automatic clock
- disable location services
- use the phone only as a phone and nothing else.
I will come back to tell how much the battery lasts.
PS: the IPhone 4 is new so there is no problem with the battery itself.

Am I the only one experiencing battery drain with the 6.1.3 upgrade? It went from 100% to 63% in 7 hours WITH NO USE!

Am I the only one experiencing battery drain with the 6.1.3 upgrade? It went from 100% to 63% in 7 hours WITH NO USE! I've had worse luck with the i5 than the i4. This is the first time I regret being in a two year contract. I might add that this is my 3rd i5

So now 12 days later and another replacement I'm still having issues and apple still isn't helping. My phone has started shutting off unexpectedly again today. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to go from here?

I have 2 macbooks each with an account for me and one for my wife. I use one Macbook logged in with my account and my wife uses the other Macbook only loged in on her account. We both make regular time-machine back-ups each on a separate external disk

I have 2 Macbooks each with an account for me and one for my wife. I use one Macbook logged in with my account and my wife uses the other Macbook only logged in on her account. We both make regular time-machine back-ups each on a separate external disk. Is it possible to update her account on my macbook using her external disk without overwriting my stuff on the same Macbook and vice versa?

Time Machine does not do individual accounts. It records the complete drive. So if you were to use her TM backup on your Mac it would make your Mac just like hers. Both yours and her account on your MAC.
Just copy the missing files over from her Mac to yours. If there are differennt programs on each then they would need to be installed on both.

I recently dropped my ipod in water and i placed it into rice for 3 days. Then when i try and connect it to the computer it shows the no battery screen with just the lightning bolt. and when i try to restore it the screen flashes then resest

Then when i try and connect it to the computer it shows the no battery screen with just the lightning bolt. and when i try to restore it the screen flashes then resest to the no battery screen and i get error 1602. Do you know what is wrong with it? do you think its just the battery cause i can replace that for cheap or do you think the circuts are fried?

No. It sounds like the water destroyed the component inside the iPod.
About your only choice now it to take it to Apple and pay for a replacement.

Oracle alerts and microsoft exchange server

Hi,
We are working on Oracle Applications 11i (fail over on 2 servers) which is installed on Solaris 64 bit .
AND I am trying to configure Oracle Alerts with Microsoft Exchange Server.
I am following the note: Oracle Applications And Microsoft Exchange Server-Interoperability Guide.
At the step of configuring the exchange Server I need to know the account used to run the Concurrent Manager service.
How can i check that?
Thanks.

Hi,
At the step of configuring the exchange Server I need to know the account used to run the Concurrent Manager service.
How can i check that?Most probably it is applmgr user.
To verify, issue "cd $COMMON_TOP/admin/scripts/<CONTEXT_NAME>", then "ls -l adcmctl.sh". This should should the OS owner of the script (the OS user which is used to start the CM). Or, you could check the value of the "s_appsuser" context variable in the application context file to determine the user.

Blackberry Curve and Microsoft Exchange

I'm not sure if I'm in the correct forum or not, but I have a question about Blackberry and Microsoft Exchange.
Do I need a Blackberry Server in order to synchronize to my MS Exchange Server? I know I can get my email to synchronize using Outlook Web Access, but this doesn't help with my calendar.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Ray

A BES would get the job done, but you could also use the desktop manager and just sync it over the wire. Also might want to look into the microsoft redirector
If someone helped you give them kudos. Research all info!

Resolving battery drain with iOS 5 (not 5.0.1)

Hi
New iPhone user (first iPhone). Unlocked 4s 64Gb. iOS 5 United Kingdom
NOT impressed with battery drain so far and reluctant to "upgrade" to iOS 5.0.1 On standby (most services set to "off") phone has decent life (looking at about a week bofore the battery dies) but as soon as I start using the phone - eg browsing over WiFi, battery drops like a stone (4% in 20 minutes).
I can see lots of folks upgrading to 5.0.1 and doing a full battery drain, full reset & set-up as a new phone and this seems to resolve some issues.
My question is, does this same technique work with iOS 5??
Hopefully 5.0.2 (or whatever it is called when released next week) will sort this out - otherwise the 4s goes back to store for a refund.
Any comments gratefully received.
Cheers
RB

I have also noticed what appears to be decreased battery life after the upgrade, though not this bad. Seems many people are noticing problems.
I noticed and changed a couple of settings that seem to have helped.
- first, fully shut off the phone and then turn it back on - i read online this helped some, immediately after the update.
- in mail settings, for the icloud account (I dont use this but it was configured by default) check the sync settings . it defaults to push, which takes more power. you might want to disable push and set to fetch for this and any other accounts you have, for additional power savings
- in settings, location services, scroll to the bottom and tap system services : All of them are defaulted to on. I turned off location-based iads and setting time zone since i dont need those. (I also opted out of the diagnostics and usage as part of the setup, but it was set to on in this screen - i left it on for the time)
- also in settings -- location settings: check the list of apps and verify that only the ones you want, are enabled
These few settings seem to have improved things

Battery drains overnight when accounts are set up

We've got 2 Playbooks in our house.. both are on the latest OS version. As soon as I add my Google account, the battery gets drained at approx 5% every 30 min. The back of the tablet is warm around the logo. As soon as I delete the account the power consumption + case temperature returns to normal.
I've tried this multiple times over the past 8 months (different OS versions) and always turn off push notifications, and set it to 'Manual' retrieve instead of any interval at all.
None of this makes any difference. I've read other threads (like this one) but still have the issue.
Any ideas?
Matt.
Solved!

Hi kinhell,
Just to clarify, does this happen with both BlackBerry® PlayBook™ tablets? Is this only with Gmail® accounts?
Thanks.

BATTERY drain with 3.0

hi
has anybody same issue, battery drains since 3.0 like mad ?!
i stopped push, seems to help, but whatfore is push when battery drains so much ?!

Hi guys, just tossing in my 50c..
I too had the drainage issue. on my iphone 2g FW 3.0.1, with the update done and restore with backup.
drainage was 1 percentage in less than a minute, every minute and the phone was getting warm.
My settings where:
none of these settings turned on
-3g(obviously)
-push
-fetch
-notifications (cant see this settin any-hu)
-auto brightness
-wi-fi
-Bluetooth
But then i read about the restore as new phone and that seems to have done the trick for me.
usage statis as of now:
usage:1h 57
standby: 8h 24m
battery at 61%
last night i turned on ipod for 6 and ½ hours , battery went from ~85% to ~45%
Not bad, but i still think that we need a battery overhaul by apple as the phone (placebo?) felt to last longer on 2.1 firmware

Severe battery drain with iOS 8.1.2

I am having severe battery drain issues with iOS 8.1.2 with all my iOS devices (iPhone 6, iPhone 5s, iPad Mini Retina, iPad Air). I can have my device in DND mode overnight with 100% battery, then the following morning I will wake up to find my device down to 20%. The battery usage graph shows nothing abnormal, just very rapid battery drain. What gives?! I saw a couple other threads mentioning this issue. I have attempted Network Reset and verifying Bluetooth is off, but this is just crazy. Anyone else get a resolution on this or experience this after iOS 8.1.2?

tldr; Check the secd process on your Mac. If it is consuming greater than 50MB of memory...turn off Keychain sync on ALL your devices.
The Full Story
The last few months I've had instances where my iPhone would start getting really hot in my pocket, and the battery would drain at 3x the speed. After much research I also discovered that a process on my Mac (secd) had a vicious memory leak and that single process was consuming 13GB of memory and paging thousands of console messages. After discovering that the process was related to Keychain sync, I disabled keychain sync across all 5 of my devices. Immediately, the battery life on my iPhone was restored to normal.
After I reenabled Keychain sync across all my devices, everything would run fine for a while, but after a few weeks, the problem would resurface. And I would repeat the process of turning it off on all my devices, to effectively reset the iCloud keychain data.
Anyway, Apple does need to fix this, as it affects performance on both OSX and iOS.
