  • I have a 2011 MacBook Pro and the battery has died what kind of battery do I need?

    What kind or battery does my late model 2011 MacBook Pro need?

    The one that your Apple Store or your Apple Authorized Service Provider will install. MBPs from 2010 on forward do not come with user-replaceable batteries and special tools are needed to remove the one within. Plus whatever one you get outside of the official channel will cost the same if new, so there is no sense in going solo on this.

  • Why does my fully charged iPad 2 battery keep dying at 50% charge? I have updated to iOS 7 and this started happening. What could be the cause of it?

    My iPad's battery keeps dying. When I plug it in and put it back on, the screen shows a drained battery. After a few moments it boots up. However, when I check the battery charge, it's at 52% or so. Can someone tell me what's causing this? And what can I do to fix it?

    For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).

  • My computer is 3 1/2 months old and my battery is dying really fast what can I do to increase the battery life??

    My computer is 3 1/2 months old and my battery is dying really fast what can I do to increase the battery life?

    Hi,
    I asssume it's a laptop!
    1st I would run it right down & then do a full recharge, then run it down again + a full recharge..
    Check that you do not have any apps running in the background, reset PRAM..
    When all's done I usually run a movie & time how long the battery lasts..if after that & no joy call Apple Help..

  • HT5012 I have a first generation Iphone 5 and my question is why is my phone heating up so bad to the point where its almost to hot to touch on the back. On top of that the battery is dieing so fast that it usually lasts about 3 hrs on a full charge. Help

    So basically my iPhone 5 has been heating up so bad that it feels like its about to over heat and die. I've never had this happen to any other of my iPhones.  On top of that the battery is dying so fast that on a full charge is lasts about 3 hrs give or take. Ive tried closing all my apps like i usually do anyways, i tuned down the light, I've reset it and booted it back up, reset it and used iCloud backup, ext... Nothing is working. I'm to the point where i  almost want to get a new phone. I even tried calling apple support and they couldn't help me cause from what it sounded like they had no idea what they were doing. If anyone has any comments on how to fix this i would greatly appreciate it . I do love apple products and i have a upgrade and plan on upgrading my phone when the new one comes out but for the time being IDE like to fix the phone i have now that I've only had for a little bit anyways. Thanks  

    You are probably going to have to take a trip to the Apple Store, but you can also make sure that:
    Bluetooth is turned off when not in use
    Location Services are only turned on for those locations that you want a constant update to
    Background App Refresh is turned off
    Automatic Downloads is turned off
    Cellular Roaming is turned off when you don't need it
    Go through your Settings and take a look at all of the settings to determine if you have any turned on that may be using a lot of battery, and which you really don't need.
    Cheers,

  • So i went yesterday to the apple store and they told me my battery was dying because i had apps crashing so i had to reset the phone. how do i do this?

    so i went yesterday to the apple store and they told me my battery was dying because i had apps crashing so i had to reset the phone. how do i do this?

    Your post doesn't really make sense, because if all you had to do was reset the iPhone, they would have helped you do that at the Apple Store.
    Are you sure "reset" is the correct verb - that "reset" is exactly what they told you to do?
    Anyway, you reset the iPhone by holding the home and on/off buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.

  • Jst bought an iphone 5s and 5c battery keeps dying have noticed a lot of people have had this issue for awhile but I haven't seen any real fix. ???

    I just bought a 5s and the battery keeps dying. I have noticed several people have had this same problem for awhile but I haven't really seen a fix.
    I am loosing about 1% every 2 min as well. not very tech savy but I did turn off the LTE. I did originally let phone die all the way then charge all the way.
    Have only had for 3 days should I start with taking it back and replacing? or does everyone think this is a software fix we are all gonna have to wait for ?
    Thanks

    You can try this link for some help http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/19/ios-7-battery-life-fix/. I do not see my iPhone 5s behaving in this manner, so there has to be some settings that you are using that are giving you problems. Did you restore this phone from an older iPhone backup? If so, you might want to restore the device as new and start over and sync over individual parts to see what might be bad.

  • My 13 MacBook Pro acts like the battery has died while it is plugged in.

    I will use my MacBook normally, it will be plugged in and fully charged. I will leave it on, close the lid and leave it plugged in for the night. The next morning it will still be fully charged (the charger indicator light is green, pressing the button on the left also shows full green dots). I will open the lid and instead of being ready to go right where it left off it has a white washed screen with a loading bar across the bottom. It goes through what normally happens as if the battery has died. It takes several minutes to fully start up before I can use it. Battery indicator is still at 100%. Strangely, this problem does not occur when I leave the computer on, UNPLUG it and close the lid. The next morning it will be ready to go without the white-washed loading screen. There is some, but minimal, battery depletion after that but only do to being unplugged. Otherwise it's fine.
    Right now it's in diagnostics overnight at my local apple store. But the apple genius, and several other people I have talked to have not heard of this problem. Any insight? That computer is less than a year old, purchase december 2012. Unfortunately I can't remember the exact operating system. Thank you!

    Youve got a wake from sleep issue when powered.
    yes, youve got a late 2012 macbook Pro running 10.8.5
    Theyll diagnose it and take care of it or replace the logic likely.

  • My 1 week old macbook pro battery is dying.

    my 1 week old macbook pro battery is dying. i charged it to 100% then went to bed and this morning it is at 32% when turned on. What the heck?

    my light does not flash in sleep mode.
    Which means it isn't sleeping. Run the Console and put the computer sleep. Experiement with the sleep command and closing the lid. Does it sleep with the sleep command but not the lid? Does it not sleep in either case. In the Console, by default, you'll see all the messages that are logged. Pay attention to when you close the lid or execute the sleep command and pay attention to the log entries that occur at that time and shortly afterwards. You might find a sleep terminated type message which will give you a clue about why it isn't sleeping.
    There are also programs that are known to cause insomnia. At the head of my list are all it one printer software because the drivers often constantly look for an incoming fax or the keypress from the AIO printer console.
    One more thing - if you have been putting it to sleep and then disconnecting USB or FireWire devices - that's the problem.

  • Battery has died and am not sure why

    Hi, my macbook battery has completely died and I cant work out why, I accidently let it run to empty and now when it only works when connected to the adaptor and the battery icon in the top right simply has a X in it and it doesnt register that theres a battery there. The battery is securly fastened and wasnt removed at all before this happened, Ive taken it off and wiped the connectors, but there was no obstruction of anykind and its not been near water or anything. Can any one help, will I need to take it to an apple store or is there something else I can do? Many thanks
    PS in the 'power' section of the 'more info' bit it simply reads:
    Battery Information:
    Charge Information:
    Charge remaining (mAh): 0
    Fully charged: No
    Charging: No
    Full charge capacity (mAh): 0
    Health Information:
    Cycle count: 0
    Battery Installed: No
    Amperage (mA): 0

    weird. I don't know what to say.
    it doesn't matter if you leave it to die because no matter what it should work.
    I'm a student with a low health battery caused from constant use so my laptop dies completely 5 times a day and the battery still works for 4 years.
    leaving the battery to die should be a problem.
    the X definitely means your battery is dead. this could have been caused by a sudden electric shock, maybe while you were away. since you already cleaned your battery it means it is still dead. get a new one.
    p.s. Merry Christmas to you all!!!

  • Reinstall io5? battery is dying very quickly... 4% every 30 minutes

    Does anyone know how to reinstall io5 by downloading again from scratch?
    My battery is dying very quickly... I visited apple in San Antonio and they said that I needed to reinstall because of "springboard" restarting over and over...
    they said it was common problem with upgrade. 
    And they mentioned that I needed to goto:
    Settings
    General
    Reset
    Erase All Content & Settings
    My iphone4 keeps some settings and isn't quite doing what is should.  MY iPhone ISN'T JB and that isn't an option for me.
    Any advise... please text me at (361) 444-2409.
    Thank you Everyone !

    First, please don't put any of your contacts on this thread.
    If you want to reinstall iOS5 and start from Scratch then do this.
    1. Open your itunes.
    2. Connect your iphone to your computer
    3. Once connected, click on your iphone (located on the left window).
    4. Click Restore
    5. It will Restore
    6. Once complete, Set up as new phone.
    *As for number 6, if you set up as new phone, everything in your phone is lost and is pretty much like the way you got it out of the box.

  • My iPod touch battery is dying when fully turned off.

    I have had an iPod touch 5th generation for about 2 months and it's worked perfect until a couple days ago. The battery started dying even though I fully turned off my iPod. I fully turn off my iPod touch yet with a fully charged battery over night my iPod will be almost be dead when I turn it back on in the morning. Also when in sleep mode and no wifi being used my battery will still die within a 8 hour period of time but in these same circumstances a week ago my battery would only decrease about 10% max. What's wrong with my iPod? Can it be fixed? If not, how do I get a new new one replaced?

    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. You have a defective iPod. If not abused, Apple will exchange it at no cost

  • In the past month or so my iPhone 5 battery is dying in hours, whereas it used to last all day at least.  Also, I am getting constant "message send failures" when texting and frequent dropped phone calls.

    Just recently my Iphone 5 battery is dying in a just a few hours, it used to last all day or more.  I'm not doing anything different with it, although I have started shutting down apps etc. to conserve battery.  I get constant "message send failures and frequently dropped phone calls. 

    My best bet would be to restore the phone. Back it up to itunes, and then reset it Factory settings. This way, any corrupt software will be removed, and you can start fresh. Make sure you back it up first. By the sounds of it, you are using the phone for business and probably need the data from it. Hope this helps!

  • Why battery is dying too fast after iso5.01 upgrade

    why battery is dying too fast after iso5.01 upgrade,  It is dying on an average of 13% every hour and a half, in sleep mode.  I've tried hard restart and restore in I tunes, no difference!  It got worse after I upgraded to 5.01.  This has to fixed If I dont use the phone it will need a full charge by noon.

  • IPhone 3Gs started vibarting and died, what is wrong?

    my 3Gs started vibrating and than died, what is wrong?

    Hopefully a one-time glitch. Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start. Usually takes about 10 seconds of holding both buttons. If still nothing, connect to Wall Charger for 10 minutes. If still OFF, Reset while on charger, it may take about 20 seconds of holding both buttons while on charger. If you decide your iPhone is not working perfect, you can Restore the Firmware with iTunes on computer. If still problems and you have Warranty or AppleCare make Genius Reservation and take to Apple for resolution.
