Hey wangyz_david,
Thanks for the question and detailed information. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPhone 5s in relation to battery life. The following website outlines some great tips for maximizing battery performance:
Apple - Batteries - Maximizing Performance
http://www.apple.com/batteries/maximizing-performance/
I also understand that you are interested in performing a recovery mode restore. You can find information regarding recovery mode here:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Please keep in mind that restoring your backup may cause the issue to be restored as well. For the best isolation steps, you may wish to restore as new:
iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.
Thanks,
Matt M.

  • I reset iPod 2G for a friend and now it needs an update however it is not being recognized when I plug it into iTunes. How do I fix this so he can use it for games?

    When I plug the iPod touch into my mac, iTunes comes up however it doesn't show the iPod in the left menu area.  I'm very illiterate in all of this.

    See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538, assuming you use Windows.

  • I have purchased second hand 5c and previous owner has not removed it from their icloud list

    i have purchased a second hand iphone 5c.The previous owner has not deleted this device from their icloud and I have lost his contact details.Is there anyway that i can find these details out from apple so that i can contact him and have him delete this device from his list so that I can activate and use it.

    Sorry, this isn't a reply.  Just wondering.
    What have you done since?  I have the same problem with iPad I bought second hand from an individual.  The seller won't give me refund or provide me previous owner's contact info.  Apple Support told me to contact local police to locate the original owner so I did.  Since police didn't have report for this iPad's serial number they won't handle this as theft.   I live in Utah and the seller I met with told me he is from Northern India so who knows which country this iPad came from.  I wish to let the original owner know i have his/ her missing iPad since Apple doesn't care about consumers once they sold their products.

  • I bought a used iPod touch and now the previous owner has turned on find my phone. How can I shut it off

    so ya I bought my daughter a new iPod touch for her birthday from the pawnshop. They said it's been put through the police data base and is not stolen(protocol ?). I took it home and put it away. Her bday is now next week and I got it out to put a cool wallpaper in it and charge it up. Turns out the previous owner has now turned the find my phone app on , so I can't do anything with it now? is it possible to factory reset it? I feel like I got screwed big time:( i hope someone has an idea foe me cause i am totally illiterate when it comes to technology.

    Return it and get a refund. Without the prior owner's Apple ID and password that device is useless. Find My iPhone Activation Lock- Removing a device from a previous owner’s account. You were screwed by the ignorance of the pawn shop owner.

    I bought iPhone 4s device from the owner and the previous owner is not present and the device has already been erased, how can I use this device using my Apple ID and iCloud

    Hello adilx
    The only way to get passed that and to use that iPhone is to ask the previous owner to remove it from icloud.com in the Find my iPhone section.
    Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515
    If the previous owner is not present
    Make sure the device is powered on and connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network. Then contact the previous owner and ask them to follow these steps to remove the device from their account:
    Sign in to their iCloud account at www.icloud.com/find.
    Click All Devices to open a list of devices linked to their account, then select the device to be removed.
    Click the Erase button to erase all content and settings from the device. When prompted, don't enter a phone number or message. Click Next until the device is erased.
    When the erase is complete, click "Remove from Account" to remove the device from the account.
    After the device is erased and removed from the account, you can proceed with the device setup process.
    Regards,

    I bought my iPhone5 4 months ago and now the camera is not working, it only displays black in the screen. I've tried reset, restore for how many times but still the problem is not being resolve. Any help from you Apple team?

    There is no Apple here, this is a user to user forum.  When you said you restored, then you restore as NEW?
    If you restored as New and still the problem persiist, then it time to take a trip to the Apple store.

  • Is there any way I can get my play lists back to my iPod itouch as the last time I snyc my itouch it deleted them from my itouch and from my pc

    is there any way I can get my play lists back to my iPod itouch as the last time I snyc my itouch it deleted them from my itouch and from my pc

    While I can't help you get back Playlists that have been deleted (by iTunes!), I can hopefully help you stop that happening again. The latest version of iTunes (on 4th July 2012) is 10.6.3.25 and this version fixes the bug that has been present (in iTunes) for the last few updates.
    So first of all, make sure you have iTunes 10.6.3.25 installed.
    For any Playlist you created, you will simply have to compile them again from memory, or by starting again.
    For the built-in Playlists that came with iTunes:
    Recently Added - see the contribution from Jolly Giant in this post https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3022568.
    For other Playlists, tell us which one(s) you're after and we should be able to post instructions here for you.

  • I bought an iPhone 5 in Brazil, but i dropped it in the floor and now i need to fix it. is it possible to make in New York and how much would cost?

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    iPod Service Support and Costs
    iPhone Service Support and Costs
    iPad Service Support and Costs
    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task. Start with Google to search for these.

  • HT201441 hi i bought a ipad mini second hand and trying to set it up i cant get in contact with the last owner to reset the icloud address

    hi i bought a ipad mini second hand and trying to set it up i cant get in contact with the last owner to reset the icloud address

    If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

  • Hello i payed a Iphone4s and i will registried of my account i can,t do this he says the iphone is registy of a other user but i can ussing i cloud and ican found my iphone but the old owner has this remove from his i,cloud

    Hello i payed a Iphone4s and i will registried of my account i can,t do this he says the iphone is registy of a other user but i can ussing i cloud and ican found my iphone but the old owner has this remove from his i,cloud
    but she by this iphone from a other owner and sche has no contact to the owner
    sory my englisch are not perfeckt

    There is a possibility that you've bought a stolen iphone which has an iClould lock on it. The only way to remove an iCloud lock is to contact the previous owner of your phone and inform him of your problem. But you dont know who the previous owner is hence you cant unlock your phone. Do a fresh restore with itunes by connecting your iphone to your pc, opening up itunes and clicking restore. I'm not sure if that'll help, but it's worth a try. Hope I helped. Cheers

    Then restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up    
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

  • HT201441 i bought an iphone4 with the previous owners apple account id and no way to contact them

    i want to reset this phone to factory settings but it has the previous owners apple account id
    password that of course i dont know and i have no way to contact them i bought this phone at a flea market the past weekend .Can i do this myself or do i take it to a apple store?

    I'm afraid that if the previous owner has locked the phone, only he can unlock it, either by giving you the ID and password or by removing it from his list of devices (which he should have done before selling it on).
    As you cannot contact him, you will be unable to use the phone. There is no way round this - taking to Apple won't help. Your only option is to take it back to where you bought it and try to get them to refund your money, as they have sold you a useless device.

    hi there, I need help .. I have 2 gen ipod touch and I restore my ipod around 11:00 pm and now its 1:20 am and on my screen its the iTunes logo and the usb cord and when I plug my charger in my laptop .. iTunes comes up and this what it saids "iTunes has detected an ipod recovery mode. you must restore this ipod before it can be used with iTunes" so what do I do.. do I let my ipod died right out & then try it .. because I restore it ,... it was beening to slow... so please help me  ?

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.
