Battery will not fully charge.

My battery will not fully charge anymore. Also, it seems that my phone has a hard time charging because sometimes the bolt will not show even when it is plugged in so it seems like something is loose. I am going to go to Verizon today to have them look into it. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hey SophieLouiseBacon,
Have you been able to try a different cable, it a different cable does the same thing then it is probably and issue with the port on the device.
Let us know how you make out at the store.

My iPhone 4 battery will not fully charge after latest update. What gives?

I updated to the latest software and now my iPhone will not charge.

After a full 8 hour charge it only shows about 40% charge. This phone worked without incident before the last two firmware updates. I use the same wall charger and Apple cord for my iPad and wife's phone (she has not updated her phone to iOs 6.0.1) and they all work great. There must be something in the new update that kills battery life. By the way, I replaced my battery less than a month ago.

HT4528 My IPhone 4 battery will not stay charged for one day.

Help!! My IPhone 4 is 1.5 yrs. old. The battery will not stay charged for a whole day. I am not using internet more than 1 hour, not listening to songs or anything else. I have restored the phone and still the battery life is horrible.
Any suggestions.
thanks

Hi pakala2022,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like the iPhone is not charging past 48%. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

1020 will not fully charge

New 1020, first Nokia & Windows phone. Noticed it will not fully charge.
A few days ago I noticed it was not fully chargered after being on the supplied charger over night, it would top out at 73%. I plugged it into an older wall charger and got it to 100%.
Today I noticed it was not fully charged and pluged it into a different charger that came with my wifes 1020 while I was driving (our car has a built in inverter). Finally it said it was fully charged (looking at the Settings Screen) so I unpluged it... 10 minutes later it went right back to 73%. No calls were made and it was not used. 15 minutes later it was at 72%. I took screen shots of the settings screen.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Ditto, I dont even have a 25% charge afer a full night. I went to the att carrier I bought it from an dhe saif to make sure you "arrow" out everytime you use the phone but even doing that hasn't helped. The warranty dept is sending me anew phone. I've only had it 15 days

My ipod shuffle will connect to itunes on computer but will not fully charge and will not play songs

My Ipod shuffle was washed in a washing machine but dried completely. Now it will connect to my itunes on my computer but will not completely charge or play songs. Can anyone tell me if this is a lost cause and I should buy a new one or is there hope that I can fix this.

Moisture will cause short circuits, so the battery is being affected. The audio output is also affected. You really can't tell if it is completely dry, on the inside. So, it's possible the current condition will improve if it is left alone to dry out for while longer. It is also possible that moisture (and short circuits) caused permanent damage.
Since it is recognized in iTunes, you can try doing a Restore (from the shuffle's Summary or Settings tab).
There is nothing else you can do (actively) to fix it, so if you want to have a usable shuffle now, you'll need to get a new one. You can leave this one alone for a month or so (in a dry well-ventilated location), and try it again. If it works, you'll have a new shuffle and a backup.

My macbook pro battery will not hold charge

My macbook pro battery will not charge. The laptop will only turn on after it has been plugged in to charge, and when unplugged it automatically dies. When plugged in the battery indicator is green and the top right corner of the screen says "Not charging". I left town for a week with the laptop off and I came back in town and it won't charge. What can I do to fix this?

If you are under warranty call Apple and get a case number.

My battery will not stay charged since the last software update

Contact apple support so they can run a diagnostic on your phone to look at the battery. 1-800-My-Apple

Battery will not stay charged

My daughter's ipod, an Xmas present, has a battery problem. It will not stay charged. We took the ipod to a store. They reloaded software, said it should be fine. I went home and charged it for SIX HOURS, and it held a charge for oh, about half an hour.
So now we sent it off to Apple. And without contacting me first or anything they say it is FINE (have they charged it and then waited to see if it HELD the charge, boy i doubt that) and are sending it back.
That is why my alias is "inhell." Because I am. Any body have any ideas what is wrong with it?
Any way to convince Apple that they have to try to USE it before they tell me it is FINE?
Thanks.
Best, Genie

Battery will not start charging

I don't know why I think it software related but my battery will not go into the charging mode. I have been watching it for a few days now and it is now down to 1% charge left and has yet to start charging it's self back up. Anyone have any ideas?

Dpbours,
Try shutting down, removing the battery and AC and press and hold the power button several times, then re-insert the battery and AC and see if it will charge correctly.
You could also try the battery gauge reset function.
Do you have another battery you could try in the system to see if it will charge - it could be the charging circuit is bad, but this seems a rather unlikely condition.
What does the battery information tab on power manager report about the battery in terms of full charge capacity vs design capacity? How many cycles are on it?
Mcmarchitto,
Perhaps you could tell us exactly which system you have, what battery and a few details about your configuration? We are probably limited to general advice otherwise.
If you have a new system T410/510 system, you might check out this tip - we have a new BIOS and battery firmware for download that could resolve this kind of charging issue.

Battery will not hold charge (at all)

I've had my ipod Nano (2nd gen) for less than a year. After a week or two of not using it, I tried to turn it on, but the battery appeared to be completely dead. So, I charged it, and when the indicator showed that the ipod was fully charged, I disconnected it from my computer. Immediately, the screen turned off, and there was no way to turn it back on. It still operates fine if I keep it plugged into my computer. But, as soon as it loses the power source, it just dies. I've tried a full restore several times. I've tried resetting it several times. I've tried charging it on several different computers. Nothing helps.
The device is still under warranty until July, but I just found out it will cost me $50 to send it in! Or, I could go to an Apple Store, which is over an hour away.
So, let me get this straight. I buy a device with a year warranty (limited, which is painfully obvious now), which turns out to be a dud, and Apple wants more money to fix it?
After 3 ipods that all have died untimely deaths...I can honestly say I'll never buy another Apple product again.

I just had to post a followup. I decided to visit the apple store in Laval, to see if I could get the nano fixed. When I showed up at the store, I was told that I needed to make an appointment for support, and to come back the next day. I was welcomed to wait to see if there was a 'no show', in which case they would be able to help. An appointment for support? When I asked how long that might take, the response was "Well, it could be all night". Then I asked if it's normal that all 3 ipods I've purchased have died within a year. The response was "well, there is no way that we can account for how people use their ipods, and the resulting battery usage". Um, I listen to music on it...like everyone else?
The staff at that store had the opportunity to make a customer happy in that one moment, and perhaps change my opinion about Apple's product quality and support. Unfortunately, my negative opinion is now only amplified.

My iPhone will NOT fully charge?!?!?!?!

the other day, my phone had the plug symbol for that battery showing that it was fully charged and running on the plug, when i unpluged it, it was fine. that night it was about 1/4 battery(like normal) and i plugged it back in, the next morning i looked at it and it was still charging, usually it is fully charge running on AC. and for 3 days now, i have not been able to get a full charge.
is this happening to anyone else, if so, how do i fix it.
iPhone Other OS two weeks old

th scot, You may want to make sure that both bluetooth and wifi are OFF when you're charging. See if that makes a difference.
Otherwise try to shut the iPhone off, then wait a few minutes, then power up.
or try to RESET the iPhone by holding down the Sleep/wake button and the Home button for like 8-10 seconds.
or....
try to RESTORE the iPhone via iTunes RESTORE software.
One of these is bound to work

Battery will not hold charge but macbook turns on

hello!
as of today, my macbook will not charge (it displays an (X) for the battery icon). However, when I removed the battery and placed it into another macbook, it worked just fine... even when I tried my other working macbook battery on the non-working macbook, it did not work. So we know for a fact the battery is not the issue, it has something to do with the macbook itself. it will work if you use the charger cable, but will turn off if you unplug it. any suggestions? its a late 2007 model. one idea I have is reinstalling the OS.
thank you!

Droid X battery will not stay charged for more than 5 minutes. Help

My Droid X will not hold a charge for more than 5 min. 1 phone call and the phone shuts down.

bdsutton,
Thanks so much for your inquiry! There hasn't been a software update for the Droid X since 2/16/12.
I would like for you to put the device in Safe Mode http://bit.ly/OAXCYh and then check your email to see if it still turns off.
Safe Mode temporarily disables all applications that have been installed via the Android Market. Performing this troubleshooting step is necessary to determine whether a 3rd party application is the cause of an Operating System / Application issue.
I want you to try that to see if there is something else affecting why the phone battery goes low only when you check email.

New iPod Touch will not fully charge

I bought 2 8 gig iPod Touchs for my kids this Christmas.
One of them is fine, but, the other seems to lose the charge faster. And, it shows the plug icon to show a full charge, but, when it is unplugged it immediately shows the battery slightly discharged.
If I return it to the store for a replacement, do I have to deactivate the old one from my itunes account?
If so how do I do that?
Thanks
Carlos

You may be correct in your evaluation of the charges of your iPods. However, just to be sure, do this with the problematic one:
1. Discharge the battery to 20% or charge or thereabouts
2. Recharge completely from a wall plug.
This should reset the charge levels for a fully functioning unit. Also, I'm sure you realize that internet use and gaming on the Touch can drain the battery more quickly than more conservative battery use.
If your attempts to solve the battery problem still fails, you should bring it back to the Apple Store for repair or replacement. You won't have to deactivate the problematic Touch; all the information should be on iTunes.

New shuffle will not fully charge. green light never comes on

can leave my shuffle docked all day, never fully charges till the green light comes on. only amber light. its not my computer or usb cable or my settings as my sons nano charges just fine thru the usb. this shuffle is 5 days old.
[Edited by host.]

I agree with you sir....same problem with me....my 2nd shuffle is a week old.....I have never ever seen a steady green or an orange light even after 20 hours of continuous charging though an USB 2.0 port on a Win XP Pro desktop PC....All I see is a blinking orange....I have tried following the doc that was suggested to you....reseting it five times......nothing works......contacted apple chat support.....they ran me through the same steps.....does not work....trying a different port and a different computer does not help either....I go to the local apple-authorized dealer from where I bought the shuffle....they have look at me as if I just spoke some fluent Chinese!!...they have absolutely no idea of what I am talking about....they are very ignorant...I am extremely disappointed.....showing them the apple support pages drew the reaction "Oh my god...what are these pages all about...why do they even exist?"......I have done a better job at looking at a solution....but so far I have not been able to find a solution to this problem.......Can someone offer a solution!!!!!!!...........
I am just waiting to discharge it completely and then check it for the last time before I take it back to the store....
Help me please!!!!...fellow users
