HT4993 why is my battery dying fast

i upgraded my softwareand now my battery is going down 1% every few mins

Try to do a PRAM/SMC reset.
I know you said you're not running anything.
But open up activity monitor and see what's eating up your cpu processes under all processes.
Highlight what ever app it is the click on quit process.
See if that helps you out.

  • Why does my iphone die fast?

    Why does my iphone die fast?
    I mean it wont even last a day?

    Battery life is dependent on what you are using the phone for. First time users and users that have just gotten their phones tend to do a great deal with them. Extensive use of the Internet and other processor intensive tasks can drain the battery quickly. Also being located in a poor cellular coverage area can force the phone into constantly searching for a 3G signal and will drain battery as well. Check the Apple website for a link on battery suggestions or search here for other suggestions on how to minimize battery drainage.

  • Does it make my battery die faster when i plug it in the wall(every wall charger)

    i was jut asking myself if it hurt my battery when i charge it on the wall because sometimes it get really hot....i used to plug my old ipod touch in a wall charger that came with my rechargeable AA battery... does it make my battery die faster?

    It shouldn't, no, not when using the correct charger. The charging circuitry in your iPod has a cutoff to stop charging when the battery is completely charges. If you're using some other charger, though, that provides a different current or, worse, a different voltage, then you may indeed hurt your iPod. I'd strongly suggest you use only a charger such as the AC adapter that came with the iPod, that is verified to be compatible with your generation of iPod touch.
    Regards.

  • Why does my battery die so quickly with iOS 7?

    Why does my battery die so quickly with iOS 7? Charged to 100%. Unplugged and opened up an hour later. Down to 88%. Why? No apps open.

    I think it might also be a bug, my 4S went down to 1% I could actually see it go down from 18% just like a watch. The phone started at about 60% and went down to 1% in about an hour but the useage still stated I had over 6 hours of stand by time, when I plugged in the phone to charge it jumped from 1% to 27%.

  • Battery dying faster than normal and I have been to the Apple Store and battery is fine

    Is anyone else experiencing this? Both my iPad and my iPhone 5 started to have the battery die 2x faster after the latest upgrade. I have reset it without losing data and I am about to reset one of them back to original. Any one have any suggestions? I am thinking that one of my apps is trying to always load or search for wifi but not sure and don't know how to figure out which one it is.
    I have been to the Apple store and they have checked my batteries and both are fine. The staff suggested that I let the battery die right down and completely charge it and then shut it down for a few seconds. so that the device is " clean" and then turn it back on but that didn't work at all.

    You can poke around in the settings. There's a lot of stuff defaulted to on that you may not need. Such as notifications. Background app update, background app update. Try turning those off and see if that helps.

  • Why is my battery dying so fast

    The battery is fully charged and once i take it off the charger it goes down to about 50% in about an hour. i make sure there are no apps open in the background and it just keeps going down.

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    It's odd that it drops so fast so I question first is it really charging to full. I would question if the battery, cable, wall plug or wall outlet is bad. You can try to isolate these and narrow down the suspects. First use a different wall outlet. Sometimes one will go bad and you don't know it. Then try to borrow a cord and wall plug. Change only one to see if it makes a difference and if not try the other.
    If none of these have worked then I would take it to an Apple Store or Authorized Service Center o be checked out. Maybe someone else on the forum has something else that might help. Good luck!

  • HT4993 Why does my battery run down fast?

    I just got my iPhone Saturday (it's a 5) and I notice my battery runs down quite quickly!  I also just added hot spot, but cannot locate it on my phone to enable/disable it.

    Hotspot can be disabled at Settings > General > Cellular > Set Up Personal Hotspot

  • Why is my battery dying when it is fully charged

    Can anyone tell me why my battery keeps dying on me when it's fully charged!!!!

    You didn't state how old your device is. Mine is 3 years old and the battery is approaching its lifetime amount of charge cycles, about 1000 I believe. It will discharge in about 30 minutes if I continuously download data, such as an FM internet stream. Until I purchase a new 4S, I connect my iPhone 3G to a Richard Solo battery while listening to my favorite FM station during my daily walk.

  • Why does the battery die before the power monitor puts the computer to sleep?

    Used to be that the power monitor would sleep the computer safely, but lately that doesn't work. I imagine this is something to do with ageing of the battery - is there a way I can recalibrate this?
    Thanks!

    Well, that explains why I thought it wasn't very useful. Let's try this:

  • HT4993 Why is my battery drained after I did a software update?

    I just did the new software update for my Iphone 4s last night, it was on the charger all night until 12 noon today, I have not used it in excess since then. As of now, almost 5pm in the afternoon, it's battery droped to 12%. I have only used a few apps and closed them completely when done with them. Sending a simple text drained the battery by 1%. I plugged it in to charge and left it for an hour and the battery only gained to 15%. Is the software update causing issues now? I am very displeased with this and need to know what to do.

  • Why does my battery die so quickly after updating to iOS 6.0.2 on the iPhone 5!?

    Is there a fix to this or do we have to wait for the next update? My iPhone has become a useless 2-hour-running brick in my pocket...

    Yes, my battery is draining quickly and recharging slowly.  Search is extremely slow, aol email won't work.  Kindle app all messed up, lost all on device but have it backed up on amazon.  I have slowly been discovering all that is wrong since Sunday's debacle of an update.  Apple deleted a post siting improper just because i told the truth.  They can delete all they want but this is one  screwed up mess and they are desperate.

  • HT4993 why is my battery life so bad with ios6?

    I had no problem with the battery life with the old operating system.  Now my phone is dead [with no use] within hours.  Yes, my apps are closed.  Yes, I totally drain and recharge at least once a month.  Yes, I have decreased my locations.  This is awful!  Is there help with this coming?

    My iPad 2 battery life has cratered since updating to iOS 5.  I have done nothing to chage the iPad except install the update.  I use bluetooth, and it has never been a problem before, so I am not going to turn it off.  I use WiFi too, so I am not going to turn that off either.  I also use cellular data, so I am not turn that off either.  My fully charged iPad 2 will drain at least 33% overnight, just sitting there.  It is always slightly warm now. I can see this is going to kill my battery at least a year earlier than normal if the problem is not found.

  • Why is the battery dying?

    I got an iPod touch 5th generation 3 days ago. it was fine on the first 2 days but today when I plugged it in to charge, it lost battery. I checked to see if it actually said it it was charging and it did. it said 'battey charging' yet the decrease in battery life continued. I tried restarting the product and I tried the basic option of unplugging and plugging it back in. If you have any ideas on how to help they would be very appreciated. Thank you.
