  • Why is my battery not holding a charged now that I have ios7 on my iPhone 4

    Why is my battery not holding a charged now that I have ios7 on my iPhone 4

    The same is happening to me on my 4 and 4S... Before the software update my battery used to hold up to 1 day for both 4 and 4S. Now I have to charge twice a day the iPhone 4 and three times a day the 4S. Apple should really fix it... I hope they release a new update for iPhone 4 and 4S users...

  • MacBook Pro Battery Not Holding a Charge

    Hi there,
    I have a MacBook Pro, purchased Sept. 2007, and the battery seems to have lost the ability to hold a charge. Even after a full charge, the battery only lasts for about 10 minutes before the system reports that it's running on reserve power. I know that similar questions have already been answered, but I would appreciate any analysis of my specific battery information per below.
    Thanks!
    Machine details:
    MacBook Pro 15 Glossy, 2.2Ghz/2GB/120GB
    Part Number: MB074LL/A
    Purchased: September 24, 2007
    Battery Information:
    Model Information:
    Serial Number: Sony-ASMB012-370f-27a0
    Manufacturer: Sony
    Device name: ASMB012
    Pack Lot Code: 0003
    PCB Lot Code: 0000
    Firmware Version: 102a
    Hardware Revision: 0500
    Cell Revision: 0303
    Charge Information:
    Charge remaining (mAh): 433
    Fully charged: No
    Charging: Yes
    Full charge capacity (mAh): 571
    Health Information:
    Cycle count: 95
    Condition: Check battery
    Battery Installed: Yes
    Amperage (mA): 879
    Voltage (mV): 12549

    Your battery does not look particularly healthy to me. I also have a MBP purchased in Sept. 2007, and it still holds a charge for hours.
    By comparison, here is some of my battery information:
    Charge remaining (mAh) 6313
    Full charge capacity (mAh) 6586
    Cycle count 28
    Condition: good
    After only 95 cycles, your battery health should be good. And your charge capacities look very low.
    Since your Mac is less than a year old and your cycle count is well under 300, your battery should still be under warranty and you should qualify for a free replacement.
    You might want to try resetting the SMC, although I don't think that will help. Also, here is a link to a battery replacement program which may not apply to your specific battery, but which does give a good description of the characteristics of a defective battery.

  • Battery not holding its charge

    My iPad battery is not holding its charge

    How long does it stay charged?
    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or - Recalibrate the battery. See link below.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) 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.

    In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

  • IPhone 4s battery not holding a charge

    I just set up an account with AT&T  and got a  iphone 4s this was Wednesday 22nd May 2013, It didnt hold its charge, I had it charging all that night at 530am Thursday morning battery was at 100%  by 8am that morning it was at 36% with light usage, ie, facebook, email, a couple of texts.  Went back to AT&T they exchanged the phone for me, the same thing is happening.  Should I take it back to AT&T or take it to Apple?  So frustrated, we are currently driving across country to our next Army duty station having a new phone that requires constant charging is not helpful. 

    Hello there, Katronale2012.
    Just to rule out usage, before you have to travel again, look over this document that talks about getting the most out of your iPhone's battery:
    Apple - Batteries - iPhone
    http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html
    Specifically,
    Optimize Your Settings
    Depending on how they are configured, a few features may decrease your iPhone battery life. For example, the frequency with which you retrieve email and the number of email accounts you auto-check can both affect battery life. The tips below apply to an iPhone running iOS 5.0 or later and may help extend your battery life.
    Adjust brightness: Dimming the screen is another way to extend battery life. Go to Settings > Brightness & Wallpaper and drag the slider to the left to lower the default screen brightness. In addition, turning on Auto-Brightness allows the screen to adjust its brightness based on current lighting conditions. Go to Settings > Brightness & Wallpaper and set Auto-Brightness to On.
    Turn off push mail: If you have a push mail account such as Yahoo! or Microsoft Exchange, turn off push when you don’t need it. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and set Push to Off. Messages sent to your push email accounts will now be received on your phone based on the global Fetch setting rather than as they arrive.
    Fetch new data less frequently: Applications such as Mail can be set to fetch data wirelessly at specific intervals. The more frequently email or other data is fetched, the quicker your battery may drain. To fetch new data manually, from the Home screen choose Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and tap Manually. To increase the fetch interval, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and tap Hourly. Note that this is a global setting and applies to all applications that do not support push services.
    Turn off push notifications: Some applications from the App Store use the Apple Push Notification service to alert you of new data. Applications that extensively rely on push notifications (such as instant messaging applications) may impact battery life. To disable push notifications, go to Settings > Notifications and disable notifications for select applications. Note that this does not prevent new data from being received when the application is opened. Also, the Notifications setting will not be visible if you do not have any applications installed that support push notifications.
    Minimize use of location services: Applications that actively use location services such as Maps may reduce battery life. To disable location services, go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services or use location services only when needed.
    Use Airplane Mode in low- or no-coverage areas: Because your iPhone always tries to maintain a connection with the cellular network, it may use more power in low- or no-coverage areas. Turning on Airplane Mode can increase battery life in these situations; however, you will be unable to make or receive calls. To turn on Airplane Mode, go to Settings and set Airplane Mode to On.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro D.

  • HT4060 Battery not holding a charge.

    We have an iPad 2 32GB and lately it hasn't been holding a charge or charging nearly as fast as it has in the past. We've disable location services on everything with the exception of iPad Finder app. and disabled bluetooth and notifications. We always close out apps hen w're done using them. Does anyone have any idea why this may be happening or any suggestions on how to make it better?  We'd appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

    Have you calibrated your battery lately?
    From http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html  (at the bottom under "Use Your iPad Regularly")
    For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
    There are also other suggestions in the article for extending battery life.

  • Ipad battery not holding a charge

    My ipad 2 is not holding a battery charge. I have let the battery completly drain and have charged it using the the cord that I recieved when I bought it, over night, (8hrs +). I have owned my ipad for over 2 yrs. and have never had any problem recharging it until now! Any suggestions?

    Have you tried using a different charger? Haven't heard of an iPad battery going bad... however, the chargers do quite regularly from a lot of use.
    Let me know if that helps, or if not...

    We bought 2 new identical ipads, have the same setting and the same everything on them. One stays charged forever and the other loses charge right away. We've kept them in standby over night and mine loses, the other one doesn't. Any info on what to do about this anywhere or what it could be? TIA
