Easily damaged, battery does not last at all.

For the last two months the battery has been severely weak. The charge lasts MAYBE an hour. Sometimes I charge it all the way and it's dead in 5 minutes. This happened in less then 6 months from purchase. The battery starting easily losing power after 4 months. I did not overcharge it so I don't know why this is happening. Also, I have taken care of my iPod but still damage has occured to it and the hold button doesn't work all the time.
I tried restarting it after it died and sometimes it would work for another 10 minutes and other times it was completely dead.

I'm sure she wants to try everything she can at home to solve the problem before she sends it off and waits a couple of days before receiving a new one.

  • I'm in trouble, my iPod Touch is giving 4th shock when recharge and the battery does not last any more. who knows or has a similar problem, please help me. Note: all this after I downloaded the new version OS5.

    I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store because of the shock issue. I doubt it was caused by the update.

    It's unclear what you are saying. Do you have a battery problem since you upgrade your iPhone 4S to iOS7.1?
    Please look into this discussion and my post here and here maybe it is of any use for you.
    I would look especially at the main battery using things (aside from Push notifications from apps):
    # Settings > Refresh apps on background. I would suggest to completely turn that off
    # Settings > Privacy > Location tracking > Only Maps, Google Maps are allowed to use location tracking in my case, you could also turn that off completely or be very selective which apps can use your GPS.
    # Settings > E-mail, calendar .. >deselect 'Push' and set it to either Fetch e.g. once an hour for all separate e-mail accounts you have. In your case you could set it to Manual so you won't use any data as long as you won't open your E-mail app and manually download e-mails.
    It could also be that there is still an app running in the background as i had. See also this post.
    In that case you need to dive into the Settings > General > Info > Diagnostics and Use >
    Diagnostics and Use >logs per app to determine which app isn't closed although you turned off your phone (or even in my case reset to factory settings  without backup). It's unfortunately pretty hard to find the app that is causing this. Therefore i wish Apple would come up with a better solution for this to see which processes/app(s) should be killed (now the best solution is removing the app completely).

  • Battery does not last long

    Hi
    I have a new ipod- jan 2012 and recently after i charged it full,  the battery drains very quickly. Like within 30 -45minutes. Also,  when i plug it in to charge, it appears to chArge  almost full in 10 min, but to only show " battery low" display within a few minutes.
    What is up with that?
    Michel

    Search the forums next time though because this has been discussed more times than I can count.
    And there are better answers than just turn it in available as well.
    Search the forums.

  • Hello, i have a macbook pro 15 inches, for the past 1 year. But since then i have been experiencing weird problems. firstly my battery does not last very long, my laptop heats up a lot and very fast,the cursor behaves oddly and the screen changes onitsown

    The screen changes on it's own, the cursor gets stuck on a word and gets me the meaning of it with a dictionary. if i am on google chrome, the screen would go back to the previous page i visited even without i do anything!  it also goes on the launchpad and desktop without me touching it! with no hands on the board. i am a student and i cant figure out the problem. i would really appreciate if anyone could help me on this asap!
    Thank you.

    If nothing else try a smc reset:

  • Please, the battery of my mac air does not last more than two hours, it's been over 30 days I sent for technical assistance and nothing! I am very disappointed with the mac air, I had a very different expectation of apples products!!

    Please, the battery of my mac air does not last more than two hours, it's been over 30 days I sent for technical assistance and nothing! I am very disappointed with the mac air, I had a very different expectation of apples products!!!

    Maybe the problem is not your MB Air......
    Try these:
    Make sure bluetooth is turned off if you're not using it.
    Set your screen brightness to 4 bars.
    See what's loading in your login items.  Delete the ones you don't need.
    Open Activity Monitor - under All Processes see what's using most of your CPU's resources.
    Highlight the ones with the highest %CPU and hit quit process.
    Remember that when Apple says that your battery should last 7 hours, they tested it just browsing the web and not have anything open in the background and screen is set at 50% brightness.

  • IPhone 5 getting really hot and battery charge not lasting very long at all??

    iPhone 5 getting really hot and battery charge not lasting very long at all??

    Try some of these to save battery time:
    Settings>Notifications>[Turn off any notifications you don't need]
    Settings>General>Software Update (Make sure you're up to date)
    Settings>Brightness & Wallpaper> Auto-Brightness on (And that your brightness is not to the max)
    Settings>Privacy>Location Services>Turn off/Stop apps from using it
    Settings>Bluetooth>Off
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Fetch New Data>Manually
    Settings>Wi-Fi> Off (When you don't need internet when you're out and about)
    To stop overheating, note these:
    Operating Temperatures: 0° to 35° C (32° to 95° F)
    Non-Operating Temperatures: -20° to 45° C (-4° to 113° F)
    Hope this helps!

  • My new Iphone's battery does not hold charge for long; do you have the same problem?

    Greetings, I had a new iphone 4S -  bought March 2013, died suddenly September 2013. Iphone replaced by a new one, which seemed to work fine. Suddenly, noticed three days ago that the battery does not hold, even for one day, even with very little use. Charged battery yesterday morning, as it was dead, used phone a few times during the day, still had half batery full at bed time; this morning there was no battery at all - had discharged completely overnight doing nothing. Has anyone had this problem?
    It means that I will have to travel a long way to the nearest store to have it looked at. Had already done this last September to replace a dead phone. One would have expected better quality and reliability from a Company like Apple.

    Sounds like the battery needs replacing.  Bring the phone to Apple for battery diagnostics.

  • Battery Icon Shows "18% available (plugged in, charging)" But Battery Does Not Charge

    The PC does operate on the battery only, just fine (so far, as there is only 18% remaining).
    The PC operates with AC plugged in also.
    LED by AC input is amber (looks orange to me).
    According to the User Guide that indicates charging.
    Battery Check status is "OK"
    I have had it on charge for over 12 hours and still at 18%.
    When starting up, the battery icon shows charging movement then stops at a low level.
    I measured the charger output at 20VDC (no load). Which is as specified.
    I have tried all the suggestions about uninstalling and reinstalling  the ACPI Complient Control Method.......etc.
    Removing battery, shutting down and all the rest of suggestions.
    No help.
    I was told there was a BIOS update which I installed. (I'll post about that in another board). No help.
    If I ever get this fixed it's going back to the vendor, Should not have this happen with less than 3 months since new.
    Just got it back from repair for battery latch falling off. (Back plate was changed.)
    Anything new would be appreciated.

    Hi @xdellman,
    Thank you for your query and realize how frustrating this is.
    I gathered from your post you have tried most of the troubleshooting steps to no avail.
    If you check the adapter do you notice any damaged or bent pins as this can cause charging issues?

  • My New Tab Page does not work at all. I just have the empty squares with nothing in them at all?

    My New Tab Page does not work at all. I just have the empty squares with nothing in them at all?
    I know how to use about:config & have had the usual problems with newtab page tiles but this is more like a bug- using 33.0.1. Doesn't show tiles icon in top right corner just shows a gear that is used to hide the empty tiles that I can't fill with sites. First it would only show 2 rows of 4 columns even though I had it set to 5 & 6 then few days later for no reason they went empty with a serrated line around the tiles & can't drag from the bookmarks---- really bloody annoying!!!!!!! Possibly a setting in the about:config but i can't fig it out?

  • TS2771 what to do my ipod touch 4g is updated to ios6 now it has a white scren and wont turn off and to top it off the homebutton does not work at all

    what to do my ipod touch 4g is updated to ios6 now it has a white scren and wont turn off and to top it off the homebutton does not work at all please help me

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    -When it says place the iPod in recovery mode use this program instead of the buttons.
    RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Firefox is not launching in one user account (just does not react at all) although it works fine in another account on the same laptop

    Have been running Firefox without problem in both my own and my child's account on my laptop. Today, although Firefox still works normally in my own account, it does not launch at all in my child's account. Clicking on either the short cut or via AllPrograms results in the timer starting briefly and then disappearing and nothing happening. I have checked Task Manager and Firefox is not showing as running in the Processes tab. I have tried to set up a new profile in that account to no effect.

    I am having exactly the same problem. This worked on all versions of Firefox up until mid last week. It started failing on Wednesday, coincident with the installation of Firefox 8.0 (see attached gif showing the automatic update on that date).
    To fix the problem, you have to shut down Firefox 8.0 on one account, switch to the other account and then you can run it there.
    If Firefox 8.0 is running on on account, the other account will run Firefox, but when you enter an URL it waits for quite a while then reports "The connection was reset. The connection was reset while the page was loading".
    We also use Thunderbird 8.0 and it does not exhibit this problem, and works at the same time as Firefox 8.0. I suspect they might share some components.
    I'd be happy to supply more details if needed.
    Thanks,
    Ed

  • Battery does not charge after rescue & recovery

    Hi,
    Yesterday I set up my computer fresh from the preload on the harddrive due to slowness, instabilities, inability to use VPN etc. After the reinstallation of OS and securiy updates, my battery does not charge anymore. The battery indicator on the front panel keeps blinking, and the Lenovo message center reports that irrepairable damage has been done to the battery and that it must be replaced.
    My battery is not among the recalls by Lenovo.
    Any idea if there's any option but buying a new battery? It just does not seem right that the battery is unusable after new OS setup.
    Cheers, Thorbjorn

  • Firefox does not open at all since I updated to version 3.6.4, not even when I re-download it.

    Firefox crashes (does not open at all) since I updated to version 3.6.4. Not even when I re-downloaded it several times. Now, even the old version doesn't start. I have a Mac OS X version 10.6.4. It doesn't show that pop up window that explains why it crashed. It just stops and quits.

    Hello everyone.
    Hopefully this support article is what you need:
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+will+not+start
    In any case, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.
