Help. MBP R 2013 13 battery fast draining

Hi.
On my mbp 2013 13 retina battery drains very fast, I have no idea have to save power. On 10.8. ML I had almost 9hr's of battery life. I think Apple is doing it for killing all older mac versions so we would like to buy newest junk. Any ideas? or just need to wait for update??
Also when power button is pushed than no options is offered..
as a spatial planner mavericks is a dissapointment to me.

Yesterday morning my mid-2009 MBP 13" was saying "service battery" under the battery life drop-down menu, so I made an early-evening appointment for the Genius Bar at the Apple Store in my area, and headed in.
The Apple Store associate checked my battery and, sure enough, it needing replacing, and since it was under warranty he took it in the back and emerged about ten minutes later with it all put back together and sporting a new battery.
When I got home I plugged in the charger, turned the Mac on, and pulled up my iStat widget, and gazed at "Charge Cycles: 0" for a short while in admiration.
Overall it was a positive experience.

  • Yoga 2 Pro Draining Battery Fast in Sleep Mode

    I have a new Yoga 2 Pro with i7 processor. It works great and normal battery life is about 4-5 hours. But with a fully charged battery, i can close the lid at night triggering sleep mode, and wake up to an almost dead battery.
    Why is this happening? It's really dissapointing and I'm going to return it if I can't find a fix. I'm on the latest BIOS with all current updates. I am not using Hibernate mode.
    Closing the lid shoud not cause battery to continue to drain at normal usage rates.
    I'm hoping it's the WINDOWS 8 software but I've tried all the settings I can find.

    the OP said battery was draining overnight because y2p was not going into sleep mode. then op changed some settings and, as i understand it, now his y2p does not drain battery overnight because he pushes power button and it goes into hibernate mode before closing lid.
    I would like to raise the issue of the difference between hibernate and sleep mode. I too find that if i put my y2p (and my mbp-bootcamp) into hibernate mode then my battery does not drain overnight. however, both my laptops drain the battery overnight in sleep mode... anyone have clear understanding of this? i've look at many articles on the web, but haven't found any that specifically indicate how fast sleep mode should drain batteries. I think my gf's mba-OSx also drains overnight in sleep mode and OSx doesn't even have a hibernate option (correct me if i'm wrong)... 

  • IPhone 4 battery still draining fast after ios 5.0.1 update

    5.0.1 update did not help, my battery still drains just as fast as it did on 5.0. My phone used to last 2 days no problem, now it lasts about 6 hours, I could go to bed at 5% and wake up with 3%, now if I got to bed with 25% it's dead by morning. I have all iCloud services turned off, only Maps turned on for location services, notifications for Phone, Messages, Reminders, Calendar, CNBC RT and Words Free. I have 2 email accounts, one is a pop3 and the other Exchange, both are set to pull every hour and preview is turned off. Is the issue with notifications? the only thing that has changed from 4 to 5 is I have notifications turned on and my reminders & tasks are synced with Exchange. I'm starting to think the issue is with notifications, I tried to turn off email notifications for the lock screen but they still show up.
    Are we getting another update after 5.0.1 soon for the continued battery drain issue?
    Email notifications continue to display for locked screen even though the option says Off, is there something else I'm missing?

    Do we really need another thread, with over 7,000 posts already on other threads?

  • IOS 8.1 installed yesterday has spoilt my iPad 2! There are no keyboard, message or app sounds, performance is now sluggish, juddery and strange, battery is draining fast and it no longer security locks when put to sleep.

    I am so cross because iOS 8.1 installed yesterday has ruined my iPad 2! There are now no keyboard, message or app sounds, performance is slow, juddery and strange, the battery is draining fast and the iPad no longer security locks when put to sleep.  I have checked all the settings, done a number of resets and really wish I hadn't bothered and stayed with iOS 7 when it all worked like a dream.  I thought that by waiting until 8.1, teething problems would have been fixed and I am just horrified that there is no going back!  I am not the only iPad owner that has this set of problems so why didn't you warn us Apple!  What are you going to do to help us?  I do not want to be forced into buying a newer version of iPad because you broke this one!

    In spite of the fact that you said you checked the settings, I still believe that you have system sounds muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center if you are running iOS 7. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

    AS for your other issues, have you done any other troubleshooting like resetting your iPad, resetting all settings or doing a complete factory reset?

    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.
    - Then see if placing the iPod in airplane mode when in standby helps.
    - 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: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • MY NEW MACBOOK AIR IS HEATING UP AND ITS BATTERY IS DRAINING OUT REALLY FAST

    MY NEW MACBOOK AIR IS HEATING UP AND ITS BATTERY IS DRAINING OUT REALLY FAST. WHAT TO DO? I BOUGHT IT JUST 5 DAYS AGO.

    If you are within the 14 day purchase period you can exchange your MBP for a replacement.  If not you can have it checked out at the Apple store genius bar.
    CPU intensive applications will place stress on the CPU/GPU which will create heat and speed up the fans.  That is normal.  If you will, download from the Internet iStat pro and install it.  When your MBP gets hot, post an image such as this from mine:
    Also open Activity Monitor and set  to show 'All Processes' and '%CPU' to display values from high to low.  Post that as well like this:
    From this information we may be able to tell if there are any issues or not.
    Ciao.

  • Why the iPhone 4 16GB drains out the battery faster after upgrading to ios 5?

    Why the iPhone 4 16GB drains out the battery faster after upgrading to ios 5?

    Not sure, but try this:
    Let the battery drain to below 20% (I went to about 14%).
    Plug your phone in and leave it to charge COMPLETELY. This took my phone somewhere around 4 hours to complete.
    When you're done, you may have better luck keeping a charge.
    iOS 5 adds a lot of additional communication, and every time you connect wirelessly to anything, more power is used. Even so, some people report that a battery cycle like this helps. It seems to have worked for me.

  • Iphone 4 battery sometimes drains fast -- problem with Mail app?

    My iphone 4 battery often drains too quickly, and I wonder if it has something to do with my Mail App.
    When my phone is not playing nice, it drains at least 20% overnight while on Standby, and from 100% to 30% in around 6 hours when I use it during the day. I found a fix (http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11775150) that basically says to wipe your mail account and set it up again.
    This fix works, but only temporarily for me. I find that I have to keep resetting my mail every few days to get back to "normal battery" where it barely drains overnight. I only use one email account (gmail) -- could there be something going on there?
    Oh, and when my battery drains fast, nothing changes when I turn off WiFi, notifications, push, etc. I usually have my mail refresh hourly.
    Has anyone had this experience?

  • This iPhone4s battery is draining the life out of ME! Help?

    I just made the jump to my first smartphone because of the iPhone 4s. So many wonderful applications and functions. Mostly Siri. I'm so dissapointed. I have only had it 3 days. The battery drains so fast, I have to charge it 2x or 3x a day. My old LG octane (yeah.. I know) Could go days.. Im seriously thinking of returning this silly phone. I was so excited, and now, I feel like crying.
    I have tried everything. System resets, drain battery, charge battery, deleted apps., deleted mail account, turned off Siri, push notifications,  location services, time zone, I have turned off just about everything there is to turn off!  It is STILL draining. And seriously?!?  Whats the point of getting a smartphone that has all these wonderful things and all these cool functions.. only to have to turn them all off!!?? Its not very 'smart', if you ask me!
    Signed,
    Dissapointed and totally frustrated!!!

    Thank you for replying to my Whiny post. LOL Here is a list of everything I did!
    This was a new phone start up. I didnt back up from iCloud.
    I tried turning various things on and off to solve it with no luck.
    Finally, last resort. I did these 5 things last night before bed.
    1. Deleted my email account.
    2. Went to settings -> General -> Reset -> Reset Network Settings.
    3. Completely switched phone off and restarted.
    4. Drained the phone completely and then fully recharged it. When I got up this morning, it was the first time battery charged to 100%
    But still have major issue: Battery has drained 13% with 1 hour usage/1 hour standby
    I have Siri running
    Re set-up my email account
    Switch on location services and have only 3 items I want, switched on (Siri, maps, and weather)
    Switched off Location-Based iAds, Setting Time Zone,
    Push notifications set for (messages, phone, and reminders) everything else is off
    Brightness screen is halfway
    Raise to speak is off
    Network cellular data off
    restrictions off
    bluetooth off
    passcode lock off
    Date and Time is off
    Accessability off
    Fetch new data is on, but set to manually
    Photostream on
    Store cellular data off
    Called Apple this morning. The tech was very curtious and sympathetic. They are sending me a new phone. I am not very optimistic, but I will try and hope for the best! I really, really love this iPhone 4s, but I really, really hate this freaking battery issue!
