How long is the iPad battery last while watching video on YouTube with 3G?

How long is the iPad2 battery last while watching video on YouTube with 3G?

My iPad 2 battery can use only ~7 hours 15mins when surfing the web using cellular data network. Is it normal?
I would say that's normal. Cellular uses more power than wifi. Your screen brightness is also a factor. Lower the screen brightness & battery will last longer.
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night. Also look at The iPad's charging challenge explained http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html
Also, if you have a 3rd generation iPad, look at Apple: iPad Battery Nothing to Get Charged Up About

I don't know that Apple has published that information, but my guess is about five years under normal usage.

[SOLVED] Laptop battery dies when watching video

So I have come a long way, but still struggle with powersaving settings. When I watch video, specificaly youtube, or work with a virtual machine, my laptop gets hot and the battery gets drained within a few minutes. I have followed instructions on the wiki for CPU scaling, laptop-mode-tools, etc but cannot figure out what to do to keep the laptop running cool and efficient when under load. When I am not doing anything outside of websurfing, my laptop runs cool, and the battery seems ok. Anyone out there have pointers on what I could check, or how to keep the power settings in check when watching videos or working in VMs? Here is my lspci output:

Well it sounds like you have a very serious hardware issue if you are being literal. XD As for Flash, the reason it is not available on Apple's products is because it is a monster battery eater. Running VMs is the same, you now have two whole OS running as well as an emulation layer. As for how to best use a battery for long life, I'll just point you to the battery university: http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/
Hope you learn something useful.

HT4060 How long should an iPad battery last?

When using my iPad continually I only seem to get approx 4 hrs use, is this about right?

The usefull life of an iPad battery is about 1000 full discharge/charge cycles, by Apple's standards (i.e. at 1000 cycles, if not abused, it should retain about 80% of its original capacity). But, a Lithium cell begins to loose capacity from the minute it is assembled at the factory. It will continue to loose capacity over time, whether used or not. So, if your iPad is a couple of years old and has had a lot of use (that is many discharge/charge cycles) then it will inherently last less and less on a charge as time goes by. Also, if it has sat unused for very long periods (several or many months) it will have degraded much faster than if used regularly.
As others have said, it also depends on your settings, and just what apps and things you normally run on it.

How long should a new battery last when installed for a mac book pro 2009 with only a web browser opened?

I recently went to the apple store in Covent garden and had a battery replaced for my Mac Book Pro 2009 edition.
After fully charging the mac the percentage guage meter displays the battery is losing power fast. 1% increments goes down every 5 minutes even if I have only a browser which is opened and no other running applications.
My recent test after a fully charged mac book pro allowed me a maximum use time is 2 hours!
I have friends and family members who have the same model as me and their mac book when running on battery, shows that the laptop has about 6 hours use. They are able to run multiple applications and use sites such as Youtube and still get a good 4 hours of use.
Anyway, I have booked an appointment with a Mac Genius for tomorrow to look into this issue.
I thought I'd just ask the community to find out if any of you can help.
Many thanks in advance.

Thank you Donald.
You are the second person to tell me this so this is more of a reason for Apple to sort out issue for me.
The team there don't believe there is an issue with the battery.
Thank you once again.

How do i hide the tool bar when watching videos?

when expanding a video to full screen, the tool bar does not "hide" and infact, blocks the progression of the video. in order to fast forward, i have to minimize the video to do so.
help?

What application are you using to watch the videos, and what version of Mac OS X are you running?

My ipad battery drains much faster after iOS 7 upgrade

my ipad battery drains 4x faster after ios7 upgrade.....how do I fix this?

Dig into your settings. iOS7 defaults a lot of stuff on that you may not need. Such as tons of notifications, background app updates, background app refresh. Turn extra stuff off and see if that helps.

How can I fix the battery drain issue on my iPhone 5s? it started when an updated to iOS 8.2 and upgrading to iOS 8.3 still did not fix it.

How much should i have free storsge on my ipad air 1

HEllo guys i have ipad air 1...how much storage should i have free to make it run fast and smooth?because i heart if i installed lot of apps snd fulled up memory it will be slow and i might be facing freezes...so how much should i have free?and thanks

I know you are looking for a number, but it's really hard to gauge. IMO, some of the problems with performance can be due to having corrupt files or settings on the device and that can happen if you have 2/3 of the space free on your iPad.
IF you really want a number, keep about 5% of the storage free, so if you have 55 GB of storage available overall, make sure that you keep about 2-3 GB free. That is merely an estimate - or better yet - a guesstimate.

How much time does ipad 4 take to fully charge???

how much time does ipad 4 take to fully charge???

It will obviously vary depending on how drained the battery is, but figure on 3-4 hours for a full charge.

Ipad battery drain

Hope above can help.

IPhone4 battery draining when not in use

am just wondering if anyone experiencing battery draining when not in use? i charge my iphone4 before going to bed and woke up this morning to realise that my battery had drain 22% on stand by... is this normal? can anyone confirm it to me please, thank you

Just an update guys --after draining (on standby) over 20% of my battery charge last week, it has risen to or about 40+% in the last couple of days. I haven't changed any settings or whatsoever. I had to charged it twice during the day yesterday and it was bloody frustrating. anyway, i went to the apple shop today and told them the problem... they scanned my iphone4's battery and it was evident and showed when was the last time it was charged and how much battery life has it lost throughout the day. After scanning my iphone we did not even have to discuss repair or do any setting or software checks. I was gobsmacked --as i did not have to ask for a replacement, I was immediately offered a swap to a brand new iPhone4... lucky me? umm, i don't know...maybe? But the thing is, they seemed to be aware of the problem and they are keeping a low profile on tackling the problem. so my suggestion is if anyone has a battery problem with their unit, take it to apple and have the battery scan. As such, i have to wait and see if this new unit will present the same problem, although i must admit, for some reason, this new unit has a slight different behaviour than my previous iphone4.
Other issues on my previous iPhone4:
1. frequently dropping signal --not a problem with the new replacement unit
2. if i turn off my "phone" feature on the multitasking bar, red dot appears on the phone icon and i couldn't make a call as it seemed blocked and it kept asking me to set-up the voicemail feature every time --again, not a problem with the new unit.
3. even my tomtom app has changed its behaviour, i have discovered new features without updating the app --strange isn't it?
4. playing NOVA game was a pain with the previous unit as i kept getting network problem and interrupting the game.
5. it kept shuffling my music when i'm using ipod whilst walking. imagine, hearing about 8 different tunes in a span of 5 seconds...
anyway, time will tell with this new unit as i have kept the same settings from my previous unit and uploaded my previous back-up data and apps. so it would be like having my old iphone4 and we'll see in the morning if it will drain on stand by as well --i hope not 'cos am getting really frustrated with it. oh, by the way, blue tooth feature don't work with my new replacement unit --NICE!!!

How much RAM will Ipad Air have?

How much RAM will Ipad Air have and will it be sufficent?

Its just apple tend to give their devices the minimum RAM they can as a sort of a limiting factor, ive had my Ipod touch 4 for 3 years now and its virtually useless now because of the lack of RAM they put in them and i dont want to be paying over 600 pound for something thats not going to run good apps after two years because theres not enough RAM.
Well, any mobile computing device you buy is technically obsolete within a year or less of being released - for any company's products that's true. And with all of these all-solid state devices, you cannot update the RAM or the storage, so they basically remain useable and supported as long as they do - there really is nothing you can do to avoid that sort of situation. Smart phones and tablets are evovling at an almost frenetic pace, so nothing in that arena is going to be compatible with the operating systems and apps of newer future devices for very long.
You can maintain your own device's usability for longer by making sure to keep backups of apps & versions of apps that you know do run on your device so you will not be left behind if an App store update drops support for your device and removes the older app version.
And as far as iOS devices, I don't agree that Apple only installs the minimum RAM. The amount of RAM is going to be based on a number of factors - the capability of the mobile cpu being used, the footprint of iOS and the built in functions, the typical RAM usage of known iOS 3rd party apps, the size of battery(s) available to fit in the space available, the added cost of additional RAM and any number of additional parameters. In a device like a tablet or smart phone, every single component that goes into them involves some trade off or compromise.

Battery Drain when not in use--Gen 6 Nano

I have used Ipods for years now. Still have an Ipod Classic and a Shuffle that I use regularly. I have been pleased with the battery life, as a whole.
Recently I purchased a Nano Touch--Gen 6. I really like the Ipod + Nike features.
The issue I have is with the battery draining when the unit is not in use. If the unit has been fully charged, I will unplug from computer or wall charger and make sure that: 1)Music/radio is paused 2) Nike receiver is unplugged from Nano. 3) Screen is off.
If I do not use the nano for an extended period of time, say around 12-18 hours, I notice that the battery has drained between 50%-75% even if nothing is playing or "on". Nothing should be draining the battery this far, in my opinion.
I can't believe that this is typical. Do I have a bad battery?
Your help would be appreciated.

You are not alone. I have had my Nano for several weeks now and have noticed the same thing. I would use it for short trips in the car while I ran errands and find that after only technically using it for maybe an hour or so (over the course of several days), I would already be low on battery. I read the manual and you can only put the ipod in sleep mode. It stays on for 36 hours and only then will it actually turn all the way off. So technically the battery last for several days but that doesn't do you any good unless you are using it for long periods of time all at once. I'm really frustrated because I really like it other than the fact that I'm always having to charge it.
