HT1476 My battery wont charge instead the battery gets drained

I recently bought the iphone 5 in November and ever since it has had problems with the battery, As most people have. Recently my battery has gone down quicker and quicker. Now for some reason my battery wont charge at all. when connecting to the charger the phone delays in recognising it and when it is removed it still says its charging. Now when it is charging it does not charge but drain the battery faster. I have tried buying a new charger, using older charges. I have updated the phone and nothing. I dont know what to do.

Make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store.

  • HT1476 My Iphone5 wont charge from the mains or USB. What should I do?

    I got my Iphone5 as a christmas present and already it will not charge. I tried charging it from the mains and USB port, so I decided to buy a new cable. Even now with the new cable my phone still will not charge! What can I do about this?

    You should make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store and have it evaluated.

  • Battery wont charge at high loads all of a sudden?!

    ANy help here would be appriciates, asap! thanks:P
    All of a sudden, as of today, my battery wont charge when the mbp is under a high load. I thought it was just not charging (was not charging in wow) and then realised as soon as i quit, it started to charge again. SO i ran 2 yes > /dev/null to test, and all of a sudden it stopped charging and the magsafe light went to green... (at 25%) as soon as i stopped one of hte processes, abck to orange, charging... started a 2nd up, stopped charging and started to use the battery again.
    Does ANYONE have any idea what is going on? i know macbooks can't cahrge under high loads, however, im on a MBP and it has never happened until this evening. Any ideas guys? could it be the bettery somehow, actual computer short not letting it get enough power.... anything? 3 month old mbp (3rd one, first two never had a problem, nor this until tonight)
    callign apple in morning, but hoping to resolve before since the closest store is hrs away.. thanks!

    Hey,
    I've actually used yes to test it ( yes > /dev/null) in console to mac the cores, its standard on all systems. They've sent em a new power supply saying it sounds like 'it isnt getting all the current' basically, which, seems rather odd. it ONLY started after the keyboard update, as if the new firmware ***** more power ot eh usb hub and it just pushed it over.. maybe my magsafe was always busted nto working properly, but it's always worked for me.. I have a feeling i'm gonna be going into the store an hr away this weekend :/
    Had a friend who has NOT ran the update try, and at full loads he still charge fine, unplugged with it running to drain battery a bit, plugged in and it went ot charge, i tried again and it goes green and wont charge at a heavy load Oh, yea, and my laptop wont go on w/o battery and plugged in.. like it's not getting the full 85w, or.. somethign is toasted on my actual laptop. CCC here i come for a drive clone tonight! heh

  • My ipod touch 4 generation wont charger or connect to my computer but it will charge using a wall charger. The battery was dead so I plugged it in to the Computer and it charged it enough to come on and now that it is on, it wont charger or register.

    My ipod touch 4 generation wont charger or connect to my computer but it will charge using a wall charger. The battery was dead so I plugged it in to the Computer and it charged it enough to come on and now that it is on, it wont charger or register. My sister has the same ipod as me and has no problems charging hers on our computer. Please Help me!!

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My ipod touch 2g 8gb has no battery, wont charge on my pc or on my outlet 220W, and it wont turn on.

    My ipod touch 2g 8gb has no battery, wont charge on my pc (Hp Pavilion g6 intel Pentium 2.2Ghz, 2 gb) or on my outlet 220W, and it wont turn on. What should I do?

    Hi there fCdawg123!
    I have an article here that can address this issue for you and give you some further troubleshooting steps:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    As you may note, this article was written for the iPhone, but the steps for troubleshooting will be the same for your iPod touch. This is the section that I believe will help you the most with this issue:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 15 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • Satellite L655 - battery wont charge

    Thanks for help

    Hi
    I think the new battery should be tested but before doing this be sure that you use the latest BIOS
    I means either its battery issue or notebooks power supply electronic issue and before the notebooks hardware would be checked, the notebook should be tested using new good working battery.

  • My sons macbook 13 when I plug in to charge battery wont charge even after I bought new adaptor pug

    how to fix my sons battery  wont charge in fact when you plug it in . The macbook does not show it is plugged in.  Does anyone know how to fix this problem.  I even got a new plug adaptor.  and It does not even show that it is plugged in, this is a brand new issue.  Anyone have an answer to fix this.

    Try doing a SMC RESET and see if that sorts it out.
    Also inspect your power port to see if dirt has accumulated.
    Have a look at the link below and see if it applies to you.

  • 4 days old MBP 13". First boot up showed charge of 100%, next boot up showed battery fully charged but the percentage read 98% in the subsequent boot ups the battery is fully charged but percentage reads 96%. Whats wrong??

    I recently purchased a 13" MacBook Pro. On my first boot up, the battery charged to 100%. I didn't operate this thing on the battery. The next time I booted this thing up, the battery was charged but the meter read 98%. In the subequent boot ups of this machine, and I still having not used the battery, my battery is fully charged but the meter now reads 96%. IS there some problem with the hardware or the software? Help is appreciated!!
    Thanks.

    hey thank you for the info. Based on what happened, the battery has gone up to 100% just once when I booted this machine for the first time. On subsequent occasions the Battery Charged symbol has appreard at below 100% charging. I have been using my MacBook Pro for the whole day with outlet power and never did the battery go back to 100%. I hope I don't have to calibrate the battery on this model?

  • Does keeping a macbook pro plugged in even when fully charged damage the battery in any way?

    Does keeping a macbook pro plugged in even when fully charged damage the battery?

    no it will not, your battery stops charging when it reaches 100%.  you can verify this if you'd like to through system report - power.
    once in a while however, it's best to use it under it's own power and charge it back up once it's down to 75% to keep the battery in optimal condition.

  • My iPod show that my battery is receiving energy and that it is "charging," but it doesn't actually charge. The battery never increases; it only decreases. Even when I have it physically plugged in and charging, it loses battery whenever I am using an APp

    My iPod shows that my battery is receiving energy and that it is "charging," but it doesn't actually charge. The battery never increases; it only decreases. Even when I have it physically plugged in and charging, it loses battery whenever I am using an APP or anything. I'm thinking that the chip that receives the energy is damaged or worn out. Is there anyway to fix it without going to the store? My USB chords is fine. It charges other iPods fine. Including a second generation iPod which means my 4th generation iPod should not have an physical battery problem. Any suggestions? Thank you so much!

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    My I-Pod will not accept a charge.  The battery icon I normally see while charging is not visible.  The cord works when charging my I-Pad.  Any ideas?

    Please find "System Information" in this folder path---Applications > Utilities---and launch it. When it opens, find "Power" in the left-hand contents pane and click it to get something like this in teh main pane:
    Copy everything in the "Battery Information" and copy/paste it here. The number values in that report may help us diagnose what is happening.
    Also, did you buy this battery directly from Apple or from another source. There are an increasing number of reports showing up that suggests some counterfeit batteries being sold.

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W 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 (2.5W, 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%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    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.
