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

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
PHi 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.
If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

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.

My Ipod 4g will not stay charged. He charges it to show full battery
My sons Ipod 4g will not stay charged. He charges it to show full battery & will only work for 20 mins or so. I have tried resetting the whole Ipod, we have tried a wall charger instead of computer charger, he has removed items off thinking they were to much for the Ipod. Nothing works.....
If you successfully (went through all steps without errors) restored the iPod to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem. An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My Ipod touch with IOS 8.1.1 will not stay charged
my new ipod touch 64gb will not stay charged when i unplug it its fully charge then i turn off power shut down when i turn back on 2 or 3 hrs later is dead completely powerless
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

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 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.

Battery will not stay in place
My iBook battery keeps falling out, and it will not stay in place unless taped. I'm not within my 90-day warranty period, but I am within my one-year warranty period. Any advice on how I can contact a hardware specialist without paying a fee? Should I just buy a new battery?
I suppose they may help. But when my G5 started choking on memory because of a firmware update, I called. I was within the 1 yr. warranty. The Apple tech told me he couldn't help and I should take it in to an Apple authorized repair shop. That's what they're supposed to do. In the end, bring it in.

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.

IPod touch will not stay charged
My newish ipod touch will not hold a charge. I make sure all apps are closed, and turn it off and just sitting unused it will be dead within a day. Help?
If by "off" do you just mean asleep with wifi on? That is not that unusual with iOS 5. To increase battery life see:

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!
grantIs the battery recognized from System Profiler?

Have you tried resetting PRAM?

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.
