Bettery life with new iOS 7 upgrade

My battery is draining after 4 hours and it was fine before I installed the upgrade. Is there something I need to adjust??

There are several things you can do to preserve your battery life. Turn off things you don't use. For example, if you don't use Bluetooth, make sure it is turned off. Also, the new Parallax effect should be turned off. Sure, it looks cool, but it uses up battery.

  • IPad 3 with new ios 6 upgrade...bookmarking problem. Help?!

    Maybe you can help me since i am not finding anything concerning my problem. I have an ipad 3. I have also updated it with the new ios 6 upgrade. After this upgrade all bookmarks were lost. But thats not a major issue at the moment. The issue is that I can't seem to add any bookmarks at all. The bookmarks section shows up blank. As if the menus aren't working.  Every time I try to add a bookmark, nothing shows up in the list. It won't even let me add anything to the "read later". Any idea whats up?? I have been trying to figure this out since the upgrade. Nothing is being detected.
    Thanks in advance for the help.
    p.s
    Please don't post a link on how to add bookmarks. I know how. It's just after the upgrade recently the bookmarks and **** are not working at all. I have read and searched everything and it's all the generic "help" stuff that does not apply to my problem.

    Fyi ... I can add a bookmark and it does not save or show up menu (its always blank). I can do the same for the reading list...and still nothing is the list.

  • How to fix Home Sharing with new iOS 7 upgrade

    My Home Sharing wont work now I have updated my iPhone and iPad to the latest iOS.  How do you fix this?

    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
    The following article(s) may help you.

  • I have a Macbook with OS X 10.5.8. I am unable to use my iPhone with the iOS 6 upgrade on iTunes.

    I have a Macbook with OS X 10.5.8. I am unable to use my iPhone with the iOS 6 upgrade on iTunes.  Apparently I cannot downgrade to iOS 5 on my iPhone. Please tell me I don't have to pay anything to be able to use my products......

    Which version of iTunes?
    iTunes 10.6.3 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1575
    Unless this is a new iPhone 5 I believe the older ones will work with iOS6 and iTunes 10.6.3.  If it won't, you will need to upgrade operating system version.

  • HT4623 Hi, every body please help trying to update my I pad with new iOS but there is no soft wear update tab what I am doing wrong

    Hi,
         all trying to update my iPad with new iOS but when in the settings tab there is no software update tab
    What I am doing wrong please or i,m going to throw it

    The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes as described half-way down the page that you posted from.
    Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11). You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand sidebar of iTunes and selecting 'Backup' (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC)
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand sidebar, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button

    A first gen iPad will be updated to iOS 5.1.1, and an iPad 2 and 3 to iOS 6.1.3

    Not necessarily.
    Just like OS X, somethings may be removed.

  • IPod touch texting with new iOS / iTunes account options

    My son has an iPod touch and now has texting ability with the new IOS.  His iPod is linked to my account, so my name comes up when he texts.  Can I create a "sub-account" under mine so his name is the sender, not mine?  Or, do I need to make an all new account.?
    Any other scenarios to work around without a brand new account?

  • I upgraded my iMac to OS 10.8.2 yesterday. Now iTunes will not sync with any of my devices - Apple TV (gen 1), iPhone 5 (with new iOS 6), or first gen iPad. I get an "unknown error 1140" for each device. Any ideas?

    Because the sync error is on every single device, and all 3 are running different versions of an OS, I assume this has to do with the new Mountain Lion upgrade. I probably should have waited for 10.8.3!  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    A bit more info for those of you reading this.... the problem seemed to be in iTunes. For each connected device , if I clicked on the Photo option I could no longer select the second radio button for limiting the photos by Events, Albums, etc.  It was an all or nothing deal. But selecting all would cause the error.
    So I had read the other forum posts about the "&" symbol being the cause of the problem.  I went through iPhoto and made all of the changes. It did not work. I then looked at iTunes, using the AlbumData2.xml file listed in the other forums as a reference.  I found one album with the "&". I edited that one.  Still would not work.  So then I spent 3 hours on the phone with AppleCare last week. I talked with 4 different advisors. None of them had heard about the "&" error from the forums. We tried everything in iPhoto including repair and rebuild.  Finally we created a whole new library and reimported my master photos from my original one.  Using this option would allow me to now check off that radio button in iTunes.  BUT... I now lost all of my albums and events and would need to rebuid them.  I was not happy. They agreed and we set up time to talk this week.
    So today I talked with AppleCare again. They now have more info and said the problem has to do with iTunes and the new iPhoto 9.4. It does not like the "&" symbol anywhere in either iPhoto or iTunes. So they now have me going through everything in my iTunes library. Genre is OK but any other item cannot have " & ". I have several dozen to edit and will do it over the weekend and then restore my original iPhoto Library and see if I can finally get it all to sync. I will let you know how I make out, but apparently you need to eliminate " & " from every entry in iTunes and iPhoto.
    Quality control is not up to par with Apple these days. 

  • Can't post articles to Twitter with new iOS

    I just changed to an iPad air with the new iOS. When  I try to post articles from Safari I get a message that says its unable to post tweet because connection to Twitter failed. I can't find the place in settings to fix this.  I have no problem signing into Twitter and posting direct tweets.

    Hey, how about an actual helpful reply?
    I've had this problem with any new device I've gotten to upgrade an old Apple one (iphone or ipad).
    Go to settings, Twitter, and delete your account; then re-add it. That should do the trick! Good luck.

  • Can anyone advise how to close apps on iPad with new iOS? I have multiple open and cannot close them.

    Double-tap on the Home button. You will see a preview of the app above the actual icon. Slide the preview up to kill it.

  • IWork not syncing with iCloud Drive on iPad or iPhone with new iOS 8.

    I Downloaded on Wednesday (Sept. 17) the new iOS 8 on both my iPhone and iPad. My iWork apps synced fine for two days, but today all my documents disappeared and the iWork apps won't sync with the iCloud Drive. what can I do to get everything syncing with the new iCloud Drive? The photo stream and other programs are syncing fine, just not iWork. Any help to resolve this would be great. Thank you.

    stpauli, it sounds like it's you and me in this together. Have you had any luck? I've had a little. I've been working on this for about a month now. Here's what I did:
    I deleted all of my documents from my iPad, iTouch, and iCloud. (I tried it without deleting, but it didn't work.)
    I completely turned off iCloud on ALL of my devices, even my Mac.
    I deleted all files in iTunes for the iWork suite. (Again, I didn't this this would matter, but it didn't work of they were still there.)
    I restored both my iPad and iTouch using their most recent back ups.
    I switched on iCloud on ALL of my devices again.
    When I opened the programs, things seemed to be working again. It worked well for two days, but now it's being funny again
    iCloud will not push out to my iPad. If I create or edit on my iPad, it will push up to iCloud just fine, but if I upload a document to iCloud from my Mac, it never shows on my iPad. In fact, I edited a document that was in iCloud using my Mac, and uploaded the file back to iCloud. The updates never showed on my iPad, and when I closed the document, two versions of the same file appeared in iCloud. The one that was uploaded from my Mac is unusable.
    This is definitely an iCloud issue. Unfortunately, the nearest Apple store is a four hour plane ride away, and my devices are out of waranty so they want to charge me for help. I hope you're having better luck.

  • IPad mini with new iOS 7.0.2 needs to be activated

    Since the newest update of iOS 7, my iPad mini has all of a sudden needed to be "Reactivated".  When I try to connected via "WiFi" on my home network, I get an error saying that the Activation server is down and was unable to connect.
    Then, I tried connecting the iPad mini to iTunes on my computer, but my computer gets an error saying "iPad software is out of date".  Although I access my iPad mini content on my computer, the iPad mini interface stays on the same screen trying to connect via WiFi.
    Finally, after a hard reset, I turned on my iPad mini and it has me enter my passcode.  Whenever I enter my passcode now, the iPad mini freezes on the screen and ONLY a hard reset turns off the iPad. 
    My iPad mini has become useless and is frustrating me.  Reading through forums, I see that I am not the only one with this problem, but no solutions have been posted.  It seems to me that it has to be the new software not responding well with the hardware.

    These instructions are for an iPhone, but they should also apply to an iPad.
